Bibi Dong Becomes a God, Shocking Upheaval at the Soul Master Grand Competition
"Hmm? A new god has appeared in the Douluo Continent?"
In the Divine Realm, the God Officer on duty before the Heavenly Mystery Mirror showed expressions of astonishment.
He manipulated the Heavenly Mystery Mirror, swiftly locking onto Bibi Dong's figure. His brow furrowed slightly, and he murmured softly, "Rakshasa God?"
The relevant information was quickly reported.
As for the several fleeting energy reactions of level 99 that had occurred before, the God Officer paid them no heed.
The gods reacted quickly to the news of Bibi Dong's ascension to godhood.
"The successor to the Rakshasa God is mad and may threaten the entire Douluo Continent. Should we take this opportunity to contact You Chen in advance and offer him guidance?"
"No. According to the rules, we shouldn't interfere like this. Judging from what You Chen did in the Douluo Sea, the godhood he chose should be 'Star'. With only one lifetime's worth of effort, there's basically no chance of success. So even if he dies in this crisis, it doesn't matter. I suggest that we preserve his soul after his death and let him reincarnate in another peaceful world, so that he can accumulate experience from his previous life and become Star God."
However, the topic they were discussing was not Bibi Dong at all, but You Chen.
After all, the succession of the Rakshasa God will not change the existing structure of the Divine Realm, nor will it generate new benefits.
Their mention of the Rakshasa God was merely for official business.
But the new gods are different.
A new divine position signifies a new faith and the natural expansion of the Divine Realm, which naturally leads to new opportunities for advancement.
"Sea God? What do you think?"
In the midst of the discussion, Poseidon was inevitably mentioned.
Poseidon recalled how You Chen had tricked him before, and his expression turned somewhat grim. He said calmly, "Don't worry, I know what's important. I won't target his soul while he's dead."
That's good.
All the gods should be.
In the Douluo Continent, Spirit City, the main competition of the Soul Master Grand Competition, which had been postponed for half a month due to the Pope's busy schedule, finally took place as expected by many sponsors.
More than a month later, the aftershocks of the Douluo Continent's failed expedition to the seas and the heavy losses it suffered finally subsided.
Leaving aside the losses suffered by many forces and the significant damage to the reputation of the Spirit Hall in this incident.
The Soul Master Grand Competition has once again garnered immense attention.
But before the competition could officially begin, an even more astonishing turn of events occurred.
Pope Bibi Dong suddenly rose into the air and, to the bewilderment of the crowd, began her inexplicable speech.
"This world, filled with despair, has no value. All that remains is pain."
"No, my heart is completely empty. I can't even feel pain anymore."
"Yu Xiaogang, since this hellish world can't contain us... then let me Destruction God King it. Hehehe, Yu Xiaogang, for you, I'm going to Destruction God King this world now!"
Everyone looked at Bibi Dong, who had completely cut off her desire to communicate with others and was talking to herself the whole time, and they all exchanged bewildered glances.
"What is the Pope saying? I can't understand a word he's saying!"
"Is this crazy? He's become the Pope, a person above everyone else, so why is he suffering so much?"
"Destruction God King the world? I haven't uttered such nonsense since my Martial Soul Awakening ceremony when I was six years old."
"That 'Yu Xiaogang'... could it be referring to Yu Xiaogang, the academic fraudster who mysteriously died in Heaven Dou City?"
"He really went crazy, didn't he? The expedition failed, and his old lover died suddenly. It's only natural that he would just go crazy like this!"
Just then.
Behind Bibi Dong, ten Soul Ring— three black, six red, and one gold—were revealed.
After Bibi Dong killed Yu Xiaogang, the extremely satisfied Rakshasa God did not hold back and rewarded Bibi Dong with an increase in the age of all her Soul Ring after she inherited the godhood.
Whether it's Divine Bestowed Soul Ring or an increase in the age of Soul Ring, it all consumes the god's own divine power.
The Divine Realm does not allow gods to refine Immortal Spiritual Energy into divine power without limit. In other words, this thing is a non-renewable resource, similar to the "salary" and "private stash" of civil servants in the Divine Realm.
Even if a successor is found and appointed to take over, and part of the costs can be reimbursed, the expenses for the deity itself will still be considerable.
At least in the past, the Rakshasa God would never have been so generous to Bibi Dong he disliked.
Witnessing the ten Soul Rings, their astonishing colors left everyone speechless with shock.
"That's... the tenth ring?" Chen Xin whispered in fear beside Ning Fengzhi.
Bibi Dong grinned maliciously. "World, feel the pain of me and Yu Xiaogang!"
In an instant, Bibi Dong completed her Rakshasa Demon Transformation, and dark energy surged outwards from her own center, crushing everything in all directions.
The speed at which the energy spread was almost equal to the speed at which the mental energy dispersed; in just an instant, the enormous arena was utterly destroyed.
Many viewers were directly injured or even killed by this enormous force.
In other words, because this energy was designed to attack the entire field simultaneously, it was too dissipated, so most of the Soul Master were only injured.
After all, although Bibi Dong reached the god level, she was essentially only level 100.
To truly possess world-destroying divine power, one's strength must have completely transformed from Soul Power into divine power, requiring at least the power of Third-Level God.
Otherwise, like in the original work, although its destructive power and damage resistance have undergone a qualitative change compared to the Limit Douluo era, it still does not belong to another dimension.
The former is equivalent to the difference between a captain and a vice-captain in the Shinigami guild, while the latter is the difference between Aizen after being assimilated by the Hogyoku and an ordinary Shinigami captain.
With the blessing of her divine position, Bibi Dong is stronger than ordinary God Officer, but she is still at the "demigod" level and cannot defeat Di Tian at his peak.
However, Bibi Dong's indiscriminate attack was not just a fleeting flash; it directly enveloped the entire arena, continuously striking everyone within it.
As Bibi Dong made her move, Chen Xin, who had anticipated this, also made his move.
Having already broken through level 97, Chen Xin not only possesses stronger Soul Power, but his swordsmanship has also reached a new level. He has achieved perfect harmony between man and sword, unleashing ultimate power that is close to the limit.
Even the power of Limit Douluo level still poses a threat to a demigod, but Chen Xin is not Limit Douluo; he is merely Super Douluo who can temporarily unleash his limit power.
His only strength is his attack power; he falls far short in other aspects.
Bibi Dong maintained her domain, resisting Chen Xin's attack, while several Spider Spear extended from behind her like whips, sending him flying.
"Puff!"
An attack that would at most cause minor injuries to an ordinary Limit Douluo was used to severely injure Chen Xin, causing him to cough up blood and fly backward.
Seeing that even a powerful figure like Chen Xin was no match for the mad Pope, and that a large number of ordinary people and low-level Soul Master were dying in large numbers, everyone present began to panic.
There's no other reason than that anyone who gets a ticket to watch the main competition here, even if they're just an ordinary person or have average strength, will have an extraordinary status in the Douluo Continent.
The death of a few of these elite figures, who are second only to the top echelons of society, is not a big deal, but the mass death of a large number of them in a short period of time will cause turmoil in the entire society.
And that was precisely Bibi Dong's goal.
Her goal was never to let the Spirit Hall rule the world, so she didn't really care about Qian Renxue's success rate in usurping the country. In the original timeline, she didn't pursue stability, but instead urged things on.
Bibi Dong, confident in her divine status, was not so concerned about the establishment of the Spirit Hall Empire, and instead preferred to plunge the Douluo Continent into complete chaos.
Therefore, by killing all the important figures gathered at the Soul Master Grand Competition, this goal can be achieved directly.
But at this moment...
A sacred realm unfolds, and a colossal dragon of starlight, radiating a holy aura, ascends to the stage before us.
Beneath the Sacrifice Sanctuary, one by one, the dead mortals were reborn, looking up at the hazy dragon Entanglement in starlight, their eyes filled with longing and gratitude.
Even Bibi Dong's Rakshasa Demon Domain could not withstand the power of the Sacrifice Sanctuary.
The starlight dragon that suddenly appeared was none other than You Chen had entered the Martial Soul Avatar.
However, You Chen did not enter the realm of the Heart of Clear Mirror Still Water, nor did he undergo the extreme acceleration necessary for entering the "burst form" or the temporary evolution of his Martial Soul, nor did he fully activate the power of the Million-Year Soul Ring. Therefore, what he revealed was still only the ten-meter-tall Stardust Dragon Martial Soul Avatar.
"It was you!?"
Even in her current state of madness, Bibi Dong uttered a sound of astonishment and shock.
Bibi Dong was hoping to force You Chen to take action before punishing him, but that didn't mean she realized that the previous Star Light Dragon was You Chen.
Previously, after Bibi Dong returned to the Spirit Hall, she quickly learned about the public opinion surrounding her and swiftly identified the source of this opinion as You Chen, the president of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce.
Bibi Dong racked her brains but never imagined that the president of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, who was suspected to be Limit Douluo, would actually be You Chen.
However, upon closer examination, the rise of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce and the loss of You Chen's information occurred almost simultaneously.
Furthermore, there was no reason for the president of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce to impersonate a Martial Soul Theory Grandmaster. Although the news was shocking, it could not be faked.
She had no way of knowing what You Chen had experienced in the past few years, but Bibi Dong was absolutely certain that You Chen was already Soul Ancestor Master before leaving the Spirit Hall.
In other words, in just a few years, You Chen has advanced from Soul Ancestor to level 99!
A fantasy!
But from Bibi Dong's perspective, it's not that she couldn't imagine things going this far!
First of all, You Chen was already around level 50 before leaving the Spirit Hall, so it wouldn't be unreasonable to consider him Soul King. That is, You Chen increased his Soul Power by nearly fifty levels after that.
The only thing Bibi Dong could think of was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast sacrifice combined with Twin Martial Souls.
Nine plus five, fourteen Soul Ring slots, on average increased You Chen's Soul Power by about 3.6 levels.
Although it's impossible to investigate further, it's still a plausible explanation.
Bibi Dong's theoretical knowledge wasn't at that level, but she had at least experienced the effects of cultivating Twin Martial Souls firsthand, so she knew that this explanation was very far-fetched.
However, You Chen himself is an extraordinary theoretical Grandmaster. If this theoretical Grandmaster has also researched some secret techniques, then it would be barely acceptable.
Bibi Dong was too lazy to think about it any further, lest her Dao heart collapse.
The important thing is that she realized she had gained another level 99 enemy.
Bibi Dong had never been beaten after becoming a god, so she was very confident and did not think that You Chen could defeat her.
But if such a powerful figure were to be left out in the wilderness, even if he were only protecting some forces, it would be a problem.
There was no other reason Bibi Dong also discovered that the so-called gods after becoming gods were not as omnipotent as she had imagined. Their strength increased greatly, but they could not destroy the world.
Therefore, her idea of Destruction God King the world single-handedly is unrealistic; she must rely on powerful forces.
If she could destroy the world on her own, why would she bother with steps like causing chaos in the Douluo Continent? She would simply start the process of destroying the world and cleansing it up.
Therefore, Bibi Dong's plan was to first deal with these top-tier experts who were prone to escaping.
During this competition, he invited representatives from many forces to attend the event in the name of the Spirit Hall, including the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce. He even sent a formal invitation, specifically requesting to see You Chen, the president of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, saying that he wanted to turn hostility into friendship and encourage the Spirit Hall and the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce to cooperate fully.
Unfortunately, Bibi Dong had not seen any trace of You Chen until just now.
When You Chen finally appeared, Bibi Dong's spiritual power, which had broken through to the level of Divine Sense after becoming a god, naturally penetrated the starlight "coating" on the exterior of the Stardust Dragon.
The Stardust Young Dragon and the Stardust Dragon look different, but their art style and aesthetics are from the same source. In addition, given that You Chen has become Titled Douluo and even Limit Douluo, Bibi Dong would definitely recognize who this Martial Soul Avatar originated from.
The Star Light Dragon, who had indirectly saved her once and let her escape once before, was one of the few beings that Bibi Dong still feared after becoming a god.
This is because the abilities displayed by the Star Light Dragon have, in a sense, surpassed the limits of what mortals can achieve.
Especially after she broke through to godhood, she discovered that her strength improvement was far from enough to crush the Limit Douluo.
She even had a vague feeling that the Star Light Dragon had also become a god.
Fortunately, at this moment, she finally confirmed that You Chen was still in the mortal realm!
Bibi Dong's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. "You Chen, didn't you want to play the saint?! Then die here today!!!"
Having confirmed You Chen's identity, Bibi Dong naturally realized that it was You Chen, the enemy who had ruined her reputation, who had saved her.
Given the abilities You Chen displayed, she was absolutely capable of killing me at sea that day. The fact that she didn't means that she intentionally let me go.
Bibi Dong couldn't understand what was wrong with this person. On one hand, he was wantonly hurting her in the Douluo Continent, and on the other hand, when he had the opportunity to take her down, he didn't kill her completely.
But instead of being grateful, she remained resolute in her intent to kill.
Bibi Dong was too lazy to think about these reasons. Anyway, You Chen's abilities were the biggest threat to her world Destruction God King and had to be eliminated!
Thus, before everyone's eyes, the fierce clash between the new god and the Limit Douluo unfolded.
Although You Chen was incredibly strong, far exceeding the level of an ordinary Limit Douluo, he was still at a disadvantage against Bibi Dong.
This was obviously intentional on You Chen; he deliberately only displayed strength slightly greater than that of an ordinary Limit Douluo. If Bibi Dong was a peak demigod approaching quasi-god, then his strength was that of a peak quasi-demigod or a newly ascended demigod.
Then...
The incident at the Soul Master Grand Competition ended with the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce President You Chen sustaining serious injuries while resisting the Rakshasa Evil God Pope Bibi Dong, but successfully ensuring the safe evacuation of most personnel.
However, during this process, the intense energy impact revealed the true identity of Qian Renxue, the Saintess of the Spirit Hall, who was disguised as Xue Qinghe.
To be precise, the name Qian Renxue was exclaimed by a "enthusiastic" member of the Spirit Hall at the scene.
First, Pope Bibi Dong attacked the audience, and then Qian Renxue revealed her true identity.
The Spirit Hall's goal of controlling the Heaven Dou Empire thus failed.
