God War! (Please Keep Reading)

Before Pope's Palace, Su Cheng and Qian Renxue both showed a flicker of surprise as they watched Bibi Dong step out.

Her appearance and demeanor had changed drastically. Not a trace remained of her former noble, breathtaking beauty; all that radiated from her was a dense, intense aura of chaotic evil.

Her once fair and exquisite face had turned blue-faced and fang-toothed. Combined with her purple armor and the evil violet mist swirling around her, she looked utterly terrifying.

Four enormous scythes extended from each side of her back. One glance was enough to tell how formidable they were; the aura they emitted was even stronger than the Angel Holy Sword in Qian Renxue's hand.

Qian Renxue did not know the truth, but Su Cheng was somewhat surprised. Were the side effects of using the Devouring Martial Soul to suppress Evil Thought really this severe?

There was no question that Bibi Dong was stronger than Qian Renxue.

But for her aura to be so intense without any attempt at restraint clearly did not match Bibi Dong's true level.

Moreover, although the Rakshasa God was an Evil God and naturally possessed evil qi, that trace of madness was particularly conspicuous.

With Su Cheng's keen senses, he noticed it immediately.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Their odds of winning this battle had risen by another thirty percent.

Bibi Dong first glanced at the two standing in the center of the square before the palace, then casually surveyed her surroundings.

"Where are they? Where did everyone go?"

At this moment, the Pope's Palace guards who should have been present had long since vanished.

Once she spread out her divine sense, she discovered that not only this place, but the entire Spirit City, was completely empty.

Su Cheng stood with his hands behind his back a short distance behind Qian Renxue, saying nothing. Clearly, he was not the protagonist here.

As for the rest of Spirit Hall—

The destructive power of a battle between gods was unparalleled. To prevent any accidents, Qian Renxue had already driven them all away beforehand.

But she clearly had no intention of explaining herself.

Staring directly at Bibi Dong, she demanded sharply, "Bibi Dong, was my father killed by you?!"

Only upon hearing her shout did Bibi Dong turn back, still wearing that indifferent expression.

"Yes, of course. Qian Xunji's body and soul were truly delicious.

"Ha, hahaha..."

As she spoke, Bibi Dong began to laugh. Her voice was piercing, as harsh and terrifying as a night owl's cry.

Su Cheng raised an eyebrow slightly. This woman had truly gone mad.

"Bastard—!"

The golden Angel Domain instantly spread out. Flames ignited upon the Angel Holy Sword, radiating a dazzling brilliance.

Whoosh—

Qian Renxue spread her eight wings and appeared in midair in the blink of an eye. At the same time, dazzling light burst forth from her body.

Her longsword immediately slashed downward at an angle.

The giant blade swept through the air, wreathed in blazing flames and carrying a fierce gale, nearly enveloping the enormous square spanning almost a hundred meters.

This was the might of a god's strike!

As the sword bore down upon her, Bibi Dong's eyes instantly turned Emerald Green. On closer inspection, a layer of web-like black threads could be seen within them, making them exceedingly strange.

Then, an enormous purple-black scythe materialized in her hand out of thin air.

With a casual lift of her hand, she met the Angel Holy Sword head-on.

Clang—

A tremendous shockwave of sound spread outward.

It was enough to rupture an ordinary person's eardrums.

Dense, terrifying cracks instantly spread beneath Bibi Dong's feet, while countless fragments of stone exploded in every direction.

In an instant, they were locked in battle.

The two figures crisscrossed the square, every collision erupting with a thunderous explosion.

The storm swept in all directions, kicking up dust and debris from the ground.

A moment later, the two separated once more.

Bibi Dong's expression darkened somewhat as she glanced at Su Cheng, who stood not far away watching the battle.

Then, the Rakshasa Domain, filled with extreme malice, rapidly expanded outward and instantly suppressed Qian Renxue's Angel Domain.

The enormous demon scythe in her hand moved silently. A purple Blade Shadow emerged and swept horizontally toward her opponent.

Qian Renxue thrust her sword straight forward. Divine fire blazed, striking later yet arriving first as it hit the edge of Bibi Dong's demon scythe before she could complete her charge, interrupting it.

Bibi Dong's face darkened.

It was that strange attack method Su Cheng had once used again.

Their earlier clash had been the same.

It was precisely because of this that, although she was significantly stronger than Qian Renxue, she had found it difficult to gain the upper hand during their probing exchanges.

The technique Qian Renxue was using was naturally the Severing Meridians and Continuing Qi Method Su Cheng had once taught her.

Some time ago, Su Cheng had studied her divine body after her ascension.

Though she had become a god, she was still human in essence. Her bodily structure, distribution of meridians, and so on had not changed, which meant that the Severing Meridians and Continuing Qi Method remained effective even at the God-level.

But Bibi Dong had clearly taken precautions by now.

That strike had only been a partial feint.

The Rakshasa Demon Scythe in her hand suddenly exploded, transforming into nine enormous scythes that slashed toward Qian Renxue from every direction!

At the critical moment, Qian Renxue's eight wings snapped open behind her before closing together in front of her in an instant, barely blocking the incoming demon scythes.

Even so, she was instantly sent flying back dozens of meters.

White feathers drifted through the air, and golden blood dripped from her wings, burning away completely in midair.

Qian Renxue was still shaken by the close call.

Her earlier ease in their confrontation had made her somewhat careless.

If not for the reinforcement provided by that pair of External Soul Bones, she would have been severely wounded by now.

Seeing that this strike had failed, Bibi Dong could not help frowning.

But she clearly would not give her opponent time to catch her breath and swiftly pressed the attack.

The purple-black Rakshasa Domain and golden Angel Domain tangled together. Whether in the sky or on the ground, countless golden flames and purple Blade Shadows radiating an ominous aura were left behind.

At the center of the battlefield, Qian Renxue silently withstood Bibi Dong's powerful assault.

By now, her Sword Stance possessed thirty percent of Su Cheng's essence.

Combined with the attack techniques of the Severing Meridians and Continuing Qi Method, it at least helped her regain some ground in direct confrontation.

The two exchanged dozens of blows like this, and for a time, they actually seemed evenly matched.

But just then, the eight Rakshasa Demon Scythes on Bibi Dong's back suddenly flew out and merged with the demon scythe in her hand before soaring into the sky.

Surging purple-black light erupted in an instant, while powerful evil thoughts clawed and writhed through the air like fiendish demons and vicious ghosts.

At the same time, the black-purple Blade Shadows produced during their earlier entanglement also gathered toward it.

Everything happened in an instant, leaving Qian Renxue no time to react at all.

The giant scythe swung down, condensing into an enormous purple blade over a hundred meters long. Its immense power made Qian Renxue's pretty face turn slightly pale, and even her reaction slowed by a beat.

Not only was its power overwhelming, but it was also incredibly fast.

So fast that even the angel wings behind her could not protect her in time.

As the Blade Shadow came crashing down—

A figure stepped in front of her at that very moment.

The giant blade swept across his chest.

In the blink of an eye, that figure was hurled over a hundred meters by the devastating strike, crashing into the edge of the Pope's Palace Square, which had long since become a field of ruins.

Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Skill: Burning Ash.

Burn all of one's Soul Power to instantly increase all aspects of one's strength dozens of times. Can only be used once per month.

But this was no ordinary Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Skill.

Even the most powerful Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone Skill had no right to interfere in a battle of this level.

Su Cheng had detonated that Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone!

The Sun True Fire on the Angel Holy Sword dimmed.

Qian Renxue's mind instantly went blank.

Her empty eyes stared fixedly at the battered figure in the distance.

As the divine fire died out, the deep winter wind swept through, and the temperature returned to that bone-piercing cold.

At some unknown point, snowflakes had begun to fall from the sky.

At this moment, not only Qian Renxue but even Bibi Dong was stunned. She did not seize the opportunity to continue her attack.

She had never intended to kill Qian Renxue, only to defeat her.

That strike would at most have severely injured Qian Renxue.

But if that person took it, he would undoubtedly die.

Su Cheng leaned against a broken wall. The wall behind him was covered in cracks and on the verge of collapse, while the marble floor beneath him had been smashed into a deep pit.

His right leg was gone, and blood spilled from his mouth as he coughed.

Bibi Dong was right.

Having taken that blow, he was certain to die.
