If You Can One-Shot Bibi Dong with a Halberd Today, I'll Do It Right Here...

"Heh, no wonder you only have seven spirit rings. So your spirit bone was dug out..." Qian Yuxi noticed Bibi Dong's left arm, severed at the shoulder, and could not help mocking her.

Bibi Dong's expression immediately darkened. She sneered, "My affairs are none of your concern! You only need to know that you won't be escaping today!"

The moment Bibi Dong finished speaking, all the spider silk shot toward Qian Yuxi. He swiftly calmed himself and dodged, but the threads seemed alive, impossible to shake off.

"How is it? Did you really think you could walk out of here alive?"

Bibi Dong gave a sinister laugh, her body turning into a cloud of black mist as she lunged at Qian Yuxi!

Her strength far surpassed Qian Yuxi's. Though he was already among the best at his level, the gap of four spirit rings and forty-three ranks of Soul Power was not something he could easily overcome.

Death Spiderweb Restraint!

Bibi Dong was incredibly fast. Qian Yuxi could only defend and evade, relying on his nimble movements to wage guerrilla warfare against her.

Light Speed!

Whoosh!

The arrow reached Bibi Dong's face in an instant, yet she merely smiled disdainfully. Her spiritual power stirred slightly, and the next second, a web spread before her, trapping the arrow firmly in its center so that it could not move an inch.

"You still want to fight back... I have to admit, your courage is commendable."

The Six-Winged Violet Light Wings spread open as Bibi Dong floated in midair. Her sixth spirit ring flashed, and countless spiders on the ground burst into purple blood mist before immediately transforming into spikes. With a light tap of her finger, spider spikes filled the sky and flew toward Qian Yuxi.

"So many?!" Qian Yuxi's face paled slightly. The Sacred Radiance Twin Wings beat frantically as he compressed the Aurora Domain to strengthen its defense.

Bang, bang, bang...

In less than three seconds, more than half of the Aurora Domain had shattered. A spider spike pierced his back, and sweetness rose in Qian Yuxi's throat. He desperately mobilized his sacred power, barely blocking the poison before it entered his body.

"Heh, futile struggling. Accept your fate..." Bibi Dong sneered as she switched her Martial Soul to the Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor. Dark green armor covered her body, and her remaining right arm transformed into a sharp blade.

First Spirit Skill, Half Moon!

Swish, swish, swish...

The Aurora Domain shattered!

The tremendous impact hurled Qian Yuxi to the ground. Bright red blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, staining his collar.

Bibi Dong's wings fluttered as she looked down at his paper-white face and sneered. "If I did not need your soul to complete Rakshasa's First Trial, what would have landed on you would be Eternal Wound..."

"Is that so... So you had your sights on me. But I don't understand. I don't have an Angel Martial Soul, so what use would killing me be to you?"

Qian Yuxi gritted his teeth and climbed to his feet. He stared at Bibi Dong, his eyes filled with unyielding fury.

"Kehehe... You don't need to know that. In any case, you're dead today."

Death Domain!

Boom, boom, boom...

Purple-black mist rose as an immense pressure swept down, enveloping the forest. Qian Yuxi's body suddenly trembled, beads of sweat the size of beans forming on his forehead as his body weakened considerably.

No, how can I die here...

Qian Yuxi forced himself to stand, his legs trembling faintly. His Soul Power erupted wildly as he sought a sliver of survival, but that insignificant golden light appeared so pale and powerless as the purple-black mist devoured it.

"Aaaaah—!!"

Intense pain swept through Qian Yuxi's mind, bringing a trace of realization to his eyes. The Soul Power throughout his body surged forth unconsciously, and the golden radiance, like a candle flame in the wind, flashed once more within the Death Domain.

37th Rank High-Level Soul Elder!

"This works too?" Bibi Dong looked slightly startled, but killing intent soon flooded her eyes. She swung her dark green blade and dived down. "I cannot let you live today!"

Whoosh!

The sharp spider leg stabbed down. Bibi Dong's strike drove straight for Qian Yuxi's heart, poison already seeping from its tip.

Boom!!

At the instant before they collided, Qian Yuxi's pupils suddenly took on a layer of purplish-red. He reached out with his left hand and clenched empty air. Layers of purple-black light spread outward as arcs of lightning intertwined, condensing into a great halberd!

Bibi Dong froze instantly, her pupils contracting sharply as she stared fixedly at the purple-black halberd in Qian Yuxi's hand.

Three years ago, they had merely tested each other's auras. But now that she was so close to his second Martial Soul, Bibi Dong had to admit that an inexplicable fear had arisen within her. She could clearly sense the terrifying power contained in that purple-black halberd.

"Impossible... This is impossible!!" The sickle mark on her forehead flashed wildly as the Rakshasa God's terrified voice rang in Bibi Dong's mind. "Bibi Dong, run! You are no match for him!!"

Qian Yuxi gave a cold smile and swung his right hand. A purple-black bolt of lightning struck toward Bibi Dong's chest.

Bang!

Half Moon shattered!

Back in the air, Bibi Dong could scarcely believe it. Her attack had actually been destroyed by a casual swing from Qian Yuxi!

And the Rakshasa God's warning continued to echo madly in her mind.

"You're making a fuss over nothing. He merely broke my first spirit skill..." Bibi Dong still refused to accept it and ignored the Rakshasa God's warning. However, she did not dare underestimate him either. Knowing that Qian Yuxi's current state was anything but ordinary, the seventh spirit ring of the Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor rose!

Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor True Body!

Bibi Dong's legs vanished. From her abdomen down, her body became a huge round sphere, from which eight thick dark green legs grew. They carried her body with incredible speed. Each leg was three meters long, filled with green venom and incomparably sharp. Dark green armor wrapped her entire body, her face covered by a carapace, while her eight eyes looked utterly ferocious!

Her severed left arm slowly condensed into a dark green prosthetic under the gathering of her poisonous Soul Power. She clenched her fist, and it too transformed into a sharp blade.

"Even if it is a Transcendent God-tier Martial Soul, it does not even have a single spirit ring yet." Bibi Dong, in her Martial Soul Avatar state, was extremely swollen with confidence. Even though the Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor had only seven spirit rings, she remained certain of victory.

"You're merely a thirty-seventh-rank Soul Elder. Can you one-shot me? Can you kill me in one blow?! If you can one-shot Bibi Dong with a single halberd today, I'll do it right here on the spot! I'll eat this Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor!"

As both sides grew serious, Old Hu Six, who had still been lying in wait nearby, could not even endure their auras and hurriedly retreated from the battlefield.

"Destruction Intent." Qian Yuxi's expression was indifferent as he pointed the Annihilation Sky Halberd forward. The void around him churned with a sky full of purple light, where purple lightning continuously roiled before crashing down at Bibi Dong with destructive force.

Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor Sixth Spirit Skill, Eternal Wound!

Boom!!

Wild winds swept through the forest as dark purple and dark green Soul Power storms churned. Eternal Wound's cross-shaped slash struck Destruction Intent directly, yet upon touching the purple lightning, the cross-shaped light rapidly dissolved as though it had encountered sulfuric acid.

"What?!"

Her words had barely left her mouth before she was proven wrong, and Bibi Dong's face turned green.

"I refuse to believe that, with my peak strength as a seven-ring Spirit Saint, I cannot defeat a mere Soul Elder like you!" Bibi Dong gritted her teeth and fully activated her Martial Soul Avatar.

Crack, crack, crack... Bang!

The Soul-Devouring Spider Emperor True Body shattered!

"Puh—!!" Bibi Dong flew backward, her Martial Soul Avatar directly breaking apart beneath Destruction Intent.

"Qian Yuxi" spun the Annihilation Sky Halberd, gathering all the Destruction Intent around him onto it. He stepped back and assumed a throwing stance.

"Rakshasa, your inheritor is truly bold. She even dared to lay a hand on the child I chose?"
