Rakshasa God Test Seventh Trial

The Asura Demon Sword pierced Su Cheng's body inch by inch, and strangely enough, not a single drop of blood flowed out throughout the entire process.

From the perspective of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, all that could be seen was the scarlet Asura Divine Power on the sword blade gradually deepening in color, slowly transforming into dark red patterns.

Then, it clashed and intertwined with the transparent, colorless energy at the wound on Su Cheng's chest, creating countless fine, dark cracks.

Unbeknownst to it, Su Cheng, seemingly self-harming as he inserted the Asura Demon Sword directly into his own body, was actually locking it into his inner world.

At the same time, Ah Yin was also using her special Earth Power to assist him, constantly helping him adjust and control his Second Martial Soul so that he wouldn't be too strained.

While the Asura Divine Power is indeed formidable, and the Asura Demon Sword is undoubtedly a top-tier divine artifact, Su Cheng possesses a unique True Power system.

His True Power not only perfectly integrates all the forces within his body, but has also been tempered by the Sun True Fire and refined by the Soul Water, making his physique extraordinary. It contains his spirit and will, his soul and instincts merged, forming a world of its own, completely different from the way ordinary people fight by relying on Soul Power.

This also means that his body itself is the strongest weapon and vessel.

Therefore, only by using this method—directly suppressing the Asura Demon Sword with one's physical body, and supplementing it with the Earth Power, which is known for its resilience and suppressive ability—can one ensure that the Asura God will not detect them after leaving the Slaughter City.

However, as the demonic sword penetrated deeper into his body and clashed violently with his True Power, Su Cheng's own aura rapidly declined.

He fell from the Second-Level God to the threshold of Second-Level God, and then quickly fell to the Third-Level God...

"Call..."

Once the giant sword had completely disappeared, Su Cheng reached out and wiped his chest, and the wound instantly vanished.

On the surface, apart from being pale and sweating profusely, he seemed to be in good condition, but in reality, his condition was extremely poor.

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion looked at him with concern, "Your strength...?"

Before this, it couldn't see at all what level Su Cheng was at, but at this moment, it could clearly feel that the other party was not much stronger than itself.

"Yeah, I dropped a level. I'm probably a Soul Douluo now," Su Cheng said casually, wiping his face.

His Soul Douluo -level cultivation was almost equivalent to that of an ordinary person with no cultivation, compared to his original strength level.

In order to completely suppress the Asura Demon Sword and ensure that its aura was completely concealed, Su Cheng used almost all his strength, so his outward strength naturally dropped significantly.

"Let's go."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ah Yin appeared outside, protecting Su Cheng and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and quickly left the Slaughter City.

Half a month later, Su Cheng returned to Spirit City alone.

At this moment, Ah Yin had returned to her Martial Soul and was dormant. Due to her special circumstances, it was not suitable for her to appear before human Soul Master, especially those from the Spirit Hall Soul Master.

Moreover, it can also help him suppress the demonic sword and relieve his mental stress.

As for the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, it was naturally returned to the Star Dou Great Forest.

The three years it spent away were quite a valuable experience for it. It saw many sights it had never seen before, which was good for its spiritual practice.

Su Cheng also received corresponding rewards. Through its special attributes, he not only learned about Tang San's situation, but also gained a deeper understanding of its special Fate Power.

After entering the city, Su Cheng first glanced in the direction of the Library Pavilion.

"It's been three years. I wonder how far Su Yue has progressed in her cultivation, and whether she'll be able to make it to the final battle."

With this in mind, he did not go to see Su Yue immediately, but instead headed towards the Pope's Palace.

After all, Bibi Dong was his nominal teacher. As a disciple, it wouldn't be right not to pay his respects immediately upon his return.

Soon, Su Cheng entered the Pope's Palace without any hindrance and walked into the Council Hall.

This time, Bibi Dong did not stand high up at the end of the hall looking down at him as usual, nor did she hold the Pope's Staff that represented power, nor did she wear the Pope Mianfu.

Instead, she was wearing a simple white dress with gold and silver trim, standing with her hands behind her back a short distance from the door, waiting.

This outfit made her look much younger, and she lost her usual aloof and imposing demeanor.

"Teacher." Su Cheng bowed slightly to her.

Bibi Dong looked up at him and remained silent for a long time before calmly saying, "Only three short years have passed, and you have already cultivated to the Soul Douluo level? Could it be that you used some special method?"

She remained outwardly calm, but her feelings were extremely complicated.

The disciple in front of her had long lost the childishness he once had, and was even a head taller than her.

She still remembered the promise Su Cheng had made to her when they parted three years ago.

"You think I'm too young? I'll be an adult in a few years. You think I'm weak? I'll work hard to become Titled Douluo, to become stronger than everyone else. You think my Martial Soul is evil? I can research ways to purify Martial Soul..."

In fact, she could remember every single word Su Cheng said during that conversation.

Over the years, the image of it replayed in her mind almost every day, even affecting her daily cultivation and handling of official duties.

She was worried and fearful about the future, concerned about Su Cheng's experiences outside, and often resentful and annoyed by the various misfortunes that had happened to her in the past.

At the same time, she had to admit that deep down, there was indeed a secret expectation that was hard to express but real...

Until we met today.

The other party actually fulfilled almost all the promises they made that day.

Age goes without saying; no one can stay a teenager forever, everyone grows up eventually.

Her progress in strength was even more unexpected. In just three years, she broke through three major realms, soaring from Soul King to Soul Douluo, far surpassing her achievements in her early years. It could be said that if she continued to cultivate at this speed, once she found the Godhood Inheritance, passing the divine trial would be almost a certainty.

Even its aura had lost its former malevolence, becoming exceptionally clear and pure, giving people a simple and profound feeling.

"Of course not." Su Cheng was unaware that beneath Bibi Dong's calm exterior lay extremely complex emotions. He smiled and said, "I can't let you down. Do you see anything wrong with my aura?"

He used most of his power to suppress the aura of the Asura Demon Sword, so he naturally had no energy left to make a complete disguise as before.

After all, Bibi Dong is no weakling. With her current Soul Douluo level power, it would be difficult for her to hide from the other party's perception.

If this is discovered, it will only increase suspicion and be counterproductive.

Rather than doing that, it would be better to stop hiding it and just reveal Soul Douluo- level strength directly.

Even if the nature of True Power is special, Bibi Dong would never be able to see the essence of this power; she would only feel that his Soul Power is a bit special.

However, the Martial Soul in this world are incredibly diverse, and his Martial Soul was originally unique. It's not surprising that it underwent changes after the original evil aura was "purified".

"You..."

Bibi Dong hesitated for a moment, as if she wanted to say something, but then suddenly changed her mind and said, "Your talent has exceeded my expectations. You are not far behind your sister. You probably don't know that Su Yue has also made great strides in the past few years and has now cultivated to the level of Titled Douluo. Not to mention me, even the High Priest, who has been living in seclusion for many years, was alarmed by her talent."

"Oh?" Su Cheng's eyes lit up, and his face showed delight.

Su Yue has a profound background, so it is reasonable for her to achieve such success, but it still makes him very gratified.

If this pace continues, there should be a real chance to break through to God-level within the time limit.

Bringing her to Spirit City for training was definitely the right decision.

Bibi Dong looked at the smile on his face and felt inexplicably displeased.

When they first met, Su Cheng showed no excitement or joy at the long-awaited reunion; instead, he remained extremely calm.

But now, is he so happy just because of the news of Su Yue's breakthrough...?

Thinking of this, Bibi Dong, who was feeling annoyed, calmly said, "You can go see her now. Su Yue has been staying in the Library Pavilion for the past few years."

"Okay." Su Cheng nodded upon hearing this.

He had the same idea.

After saying hello, he left the Pope's Palace.

Now that we've already met with Bibi Dong, we should indeed go and check on Su Yue's situation.

Only after seeing it in person can he have a clear understanding.

"Huh?"

Watching Su Cheng's departing figure without any lingering attachment, Bibi Dong's expression froze, then her expression changed, her face shifting between light and dark.

She didn't expect that the other person would actually leave so suddenly, seemingly not interested in spending any more time alone with her.

When they parted years ago, Su Cheng's confession was so sincere and heartfelt that it kept her tossing and turning for countless nights.

But when we met again today, I couldn't detect a trace of the passionate love we once shared on their faces, nor did I feel much longing for them.

On the contrary, he seemed perfectly normal, as if he really regarded himself as an ordinary teacher or the Pope of the Spirit Hall.

Speak respectfully and remain calm.

This was perfectly normal behavior and the attitude a disciple should have.

But in Bibi Dong's view, this was tantamount to an invisible retreat and alienation.

Especially for a young man like Su Cheng, who is just beginning to experience romantic feelings and has only recently come of age, this is simply scumbag behavior!

The confession and promises made back then are nothing but a joke!

Amidst her anger, a hint of worry surfaced in her heart.

She didn't know what Su Cheng had gone through in the past three years, or whether his state of mind had changed as his cultivation level rapidly improved.

She had sent people out to investigate Su Cheng's whereabouts, but to no avail, and for a time she couldn't help but feel anxious and uncertain.

On the other hand, Su Cheng, who had left the Spirit Hall, was unaware of what Bibi Dong was thinking.

It's not that he lacked feelings, but rather that he was already extremely close to Bibi Dong in reality, and he wasn't truly the naive young man who was experiencing first love, as he initially appeared.

We need to be more patient and much more peaceful, and not rush things. It's only been a few years; it's hardly a separation.

Moreover, Bibi Dong's Spirit Core has not shown any signs of awakening.

In Su Cheng's view, even if there was some subconscious influence, it made her feel very good about him.

However, the constraints of identity and age differences are psychological barriers that are not so easy to overcome, and it will definitely take some time.

If the two of them had spent every day together over the past few years, that would be fine.

After three years apart, their feelings are probably still in a hazy stage and they need time to adjust.

Besides, he has had too many things to consider lately, and he hardly has a moment of free time.

Even with an advantage in information, it's not easy to scheme against a god, especially a top expert whose strength surpasses his own. He can't afford to be careless, leaving him with neither the time nor the energy to be distracted.

Walking on the vast continent of Spirit City, Su Cheng pondered silently in his heart.

"This time, we don't know how the Rakshasa God will make his move."

"As expected, after I obtained the Asura Demon Sword, that guy definitely took the bait. The Nine-Headed Bat King's destiny has been accurately predicted; it will bring the Rakshasa God to me. If I'm not mistaken, the place we encountered appears to be the Rakshasa Secret Realm. But why did I also enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm? Where exactly is that place..."

"Is it related to Bibi Dong? After all, she is still the successor of the Rakshasa God. But the problem is that for those taking the divine test, they can only enter the inheritance realm after completing all the divine tests and beginning to inherit the divine position."

"In that case, the timeframe is a bit too tight..."

"The Rakshasa God Test Seventh Trial. Completion conditions: Kill the successor to the Asura God's throne and seize the Asura Demon Sword. Time limit: One year. Reward for passing: Rakshasa God affinity increased by 15%, and one more chance to enter the Rakshasa Secret Realm."

The sudden voice in her mind startled Bibi Dong. She hadn't even finished her Sixth Trial, how could the Seventh Trial be here already?

He was immediately shocked, "The successor to the Asura God?!"

The next moment, a scene unfolded before her.

In the scene, a man and a woman are seen leaving the Slaughter City, leaning on each other.

During this time, the woman with her arm around the man would occasionally interact intimately with him, gently adjusting his clothes, just like a couple deeply in love.

Beside the two of them followed a strange Soul Beast with golden fur all over its body and a red vertical eye on its forehead.

"Why..."

Bibi Dong stared blankly at Su Cheng in the picture, then looked at the stunningly beautiful figure in Blue-Gold Palace Dress, a dark purple halo appearing in her eyes.

Over the years, the previously peaceful energy fluctuations have become chaotic and sinister again, and have gradually intensified.

"Why!"

At this moment, she had no interest in the tasks and rewards related to the Rakshasa God Test; her mind was filled with Su Cheng and Ah Yin's intimate gestures and actions.
