An Unexpected Ending

It comes quickly, but it goes quickly too, like a dragon emerging from the clouds, fleeting yet strange.

The torrential rain stopped in an instant, leaving the onlookers stunned. Was it over already? It hadn't even been an hour!

It should be noted that during the first tribulation, when the Primal Skyfire descended, it took a full three hours for the second tribulation, the Three Thousand Weak Waters. While it seemed to pass in the blink of an eye inside, those of them outside truly experienced the length of time.

Three hours, or six hours, is equivalent to going directly from noon to night. In addition, the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament ends around 3 p. m., during which there is also a confrontation between the Elder's Hall and Fu Hua.

Judging from the sky, it was around five or six in the afternoon. Six hours had passed and it was already the dead of night. Fortunately, they were all Soul Master, so it didn't matter whether they slept or not. In addition, Pope Bibi Dong had also condescended to be here to observe, so they naturally wouldn't fall behind.

The love of watching a spectacle is human nature.

As time went on, more and more people gathered here. Although the Spirit Hall's guardian knights sealed it off, they still couldn't stop those important figures.

This is a sight unseen for tens of millions of years on the Douluo Continent! Naturally, they want to see it; perhaps it will give them a chance to challenge the so-called gods.

Of course, this is just wishful thinking. Although they can't stop the Spirit Hall's underlings, they still have to give the Spirit Hall face. As long as they haven't completely broken ties with the Spirit Hall, they still have to maintain a superficial peace.

Heaven Sword Mountain, Spirit Hall, Elder's Hall

A series of coughs continued. After six hours of rest, Qian Daoliu's emaciated body had improved a lot, but it was still as frightening as ever.

Especially when he opens his eyes, the resentment and malice within them can suffocate a person.

"Damn Fu Hua, you destroyed ten years of my foundation! I'll make you wish you were dead!"

A violent cough once again echoed throughout the Elder's Hall, mixed with some foul odors, and Qian Daoliu's aura weakened once more.

"Grandpa, don't get angry."

Qian Renxue hurriedly came to his side, wanting to use her own Soul Power to stabilize his body, but was stopped by Qian Daoliu.

"Xiao Xue, no need for that. Don't waste your Soul Power. You need to focus on your cultivation now. As for the affairs of the Heaven Dou Empire, don't worry about them. After this incident, the various forces on the continent will no longer be stable. I'm sure Bibi Dong will also take action. I want you to directly restore your status as the Holy Maiden, take charge of the Elder's Hall, and start the inheritance."

"Grandfather!"

Qian Daoliu waved his hand, his face drained of color. His foundation had been damaged, and if everything wasn't settled beforehand, their lineage of Six-winged Angel would be completely extinguished.

Angel God will never return.

"My time is running out. I need you to inherit the Angel God's legacy as soon as possible. Once you become a god, no one on this continent will be an obstacle for you. For the Spirit Hall, for me, and most importantly, for yourself."

Qian Renxue pressed her lips tightly together, her expression inscrutable, and no emotion flashed in her eyes, as if she were a complete stranger.

Qian Daoliu sighed; he had nowhere left to go.

"Xiao Xue, you must take the Spirit Hall back from Bibi Dong. It belongs to our Six-winged Angel clan. Back then, alas! We wronged Bibi Dong, but I never imagined her ambition would be so great."

"Grandpa, back then..."

"You don't need to know these things, Xiao Xue. Now you just need to focus on receiving the Angel God's inheritance. Other trivial matters will only disturb your mind."

Qian Daoliu coughed up another mouthful of black blood.

The damage has reached its root, the raging fire is deep within the bones, and there is no cure.

At least once again, he should help Xiao Xue achieve her goals Qian Daoliu sighed inwardly, realizing that he had ultimately wronged Xiao Xue for what happened back then.

"Disturbing my mind," Qian Renxue scoffed.

Grandpa, do you know that my heart is already in turmoil?

Concealing the expression in her eyes, Qian Renxue once again regained her aloofness, as cold as ice and as serene as the moon.

Even the crescent moon in the sky seemed less cold than her eyes at this moment, and they reflected no one's image; the water there was stagnant and lifeless.

Just as she sealed her heart once again behind that heavy black stone, preventing others from approaching and also isolating herself from leaving.

She sealed her heart away.

If not friends, then enemies.

This wasn't just empty talk; she was cold-hearted and cold-blooded. Otherwise, how could she have remained undetected for over a decade while infiltrating the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, and silently murdered many members of the royal clan?

Anyone who threatens her rule over the Heaven Dou Empire will suffer a terrible death, and even the Heaven Dou Emperor is definitely not having an easy time right now.

She hates others, but she's even more ruthless to herself.

If someone is beyond my control, then I will destroy them completely.

His eyes were cold as he gazed into the distance, where... the sky was still bright, and the moon was still cold.

"I understand, Grandpa."

A single, soft sentence, falling into the empty Elder's Hall, carried Sisi of eeriness, as if haunted by a ghost Gui Mei.

The voice was clear yet chilling, its killing intent so intense it seemed to pierce the heavens.

At the old site of Spirit City, Bibi Dong seemed to sense something. She looked in the direction of the Elder's Hall, her brows furrowing slightly. Was something slipping out of her control?

"What? Still thinking about that old man?" His tone was flippant, still tinged with amusement.

Her slender fingers gently caressed the furrowed brows, her tenderness like flowing water.

I'm worried about Xue'er.

"Ha"

A simple syllable, yet it revealed the woman's ruthless coldness; her aura was icy, causing the knights stationed around her to tremble.

The night was already slightly cool, but at this moment they felt even colder, as if some irresistible force was watching them from behind, or like Poison Snake coiled around their necks, flicking its tongue.

Extremely cold and frigid, yet carrying a unique, searing pain that penetrates to the very bone.

These guardian knights trembled in fear, touching their arms with inscrutable expressions.

"I'll explain some things to you later, but..."

"My patience is limited, and not everyone can receive my tolerance. For you, this is already the greatest extent possible."

"I understand, but not now. I'll tell you everything once everything has settled down," Bibi Dong said, her expression slightly weary.

She was also getting tired of this kind of life, and more than anything, she longed for the carefree days she used to have.

The days when I wandered around with Xiao Gang and her were the most carefree and leisurely, but everything is irreversible. When the dust settles, will everything have changed?

The future is full of unknowns, with both anticipation and uncertainty.

Bibi Dong, the future has never been like this before.

"Ha"

This time, there was less coldness and more pampering.

She has always been like this. Bibi Dong, she is more tolerant and indulgent. Even though she says it, she has actually done it several times.

Otherwise, Qian Renxue wouldn't be alive today.

The former site of Spirit City

The sky was as bright as day. Although it dimmed for a moment after the Three Thousand Weak Waters receded, it was quickly illuminated by the third wave of Heavenly Tribulation. This time, it was truly as bright as day.

It was as if another sun had appeared in the sky.

The sun at night

The Sun Moon shone brightly together, and the Soul Power in the air was more active than ever before. Those Spirit Saint and Soul Master Soul Douluo even had the illusion that their cultivation had advanced again.

No, it's not an illusion, it really exists.

Rising and falling

One after another, everyone around him quickly sat cross-legged, absorbing Soul Power to break through, level by level, breaking through at lightning speed, just like riding a rocket.

Even the several Titled Douluo who came here couldn't help but close their eyes and carefully comprehend it.

The Sun Moon reach the heavens, shining together in brilliance.

This is an unprecedented spectacle, but it has indeed occurred here. High in the sky, one side shines like the sun, while the other side is bathed in the cool moonlight, reflecting each other as if the essence of the Sun Moon rises.

Just as everyone was filled with emotion at this extraordinary sight, the situation changed once again. The sun's radiance became even more dazzling, filled with endless sharpness.

The stinging sensation caused to the skin of those who were sitting cross-legged, and the Soul Master who were sitting cross-legged hurriedly jumped up and moved away from the place, only feeling better when they were fifty miles away.

As the light grew brighter, it completely turned night into day. This was not just due to the light itself, but a true reversal of day and night.

It can be described as a masterpiece of nature.

The light was dazzling, piercing the hearts and minds of countless people, and it even penetrated their defenses and reached their bodies.

The light is not scorching, but it is sharp.

It was as if countless tiny knives were slicing their bodies apart, inch by inch, bit by bit; it was no less cruel than being slowly sliced to death.

Everyone was shocked, including Bibi Dong and the woman beside her, their brows furrowed with astonishment.

Even she hadn't expected that Fu Hua's tribulations would be so severe; this was only the third tribulation!

The First Tribulation: Primal Skyfire

The Second Tribulation: The Three Thousand Weak Waters

Heavenly fire seared her soul, while the Weak Water struck her very spirit; one soul, one spirit.

Humans have three souls and seven spirits, representing different emotions and life conditions. When a person loses their soul or spirit, it means that their lifespan has ended. This applies to ordinary humans.

For these highly skilled Soul Master, losing a few souls or spirits is not a big deal. As long as they retain one soul or spirit, they can be resurrected. Afterward, they only need to find the rest of their souls and spirits to return to their original positions.

Unfortunately, even after experiencing the tribulations of heavenly fire and weak water, Fu Hua's strength only increased and did not diminish in the slightest. In fact, she tempered her soul and spirit during the tribulations, making her soul and spirit even more stable.

Perhaps it was because Fu Hua did this that she completely angered the Heavenly Dao of this world. During the third tribulation, it directly unleashed a power that even the gods feared.

Slaying Immortals

Slaying Immortals, as the name suggests, is used to sever the roots of immortality. In the words of the cultivation world, it means cutting off the possibility of further advancement, and even life itself.

On the execution platform, the immortals sighed.

Even true immortals would hate the injustice of the heavens. Why, if they have achieved so much, must their path be cut off?

Even immortals sigh, even immortals sigh, for they too must lament.

Fu Hua's Self-Created Godhood has already shaken the foundation of the Divine Realm. The change of godhood within the Divine Realm will naturally lead to another bloody storm.

As life withers and even more powerful creatures take its place, Heaven will suffer another loss, which it will not allow. Therefore, it will send down Divine Punishment to kill those who dare to provoke it.

Originally, I thought that the Primal Skyfire of the first tribulation would be enough, but I never expected that not only would it not be enough, but it would also help the other party, making the other party's path to godhood even more solid.

Three Thousand Weak Waters, once formed into a rain curtain, can pierce through stars and shatter continents.

Because this person was not a native of the Douluo Continent, the Heavenly Dao reduced its power. Moreover, it was unexpected that the other party possessed a divine artifact capable of withstanding the Three Thousand Weak Waters.

However, once and twice is not enough.

Heaven would not allow any further mistakes, so the third tribulation was directly changed to the Immortal Slaying Tribulation.

The execution platform was not revealed; a single Immortal Slaying Saber Light was enough.

The Immortal Slaying Saber Light was revealed, plain and unremarkable, without any sharpness or brilliance, like a farmer's curved knife for harvesting wheat, standing in the clouds, yet Fu Hua felt an immense threat.

Invincible, undefendable

Like a fleeting moment, the blade flashed and arrived in an instant. Fu Hua didn't even have time to blink before she lost consciousness, followed by a loss of hearing, touch, smell, taste, and sight.

After the five senses are completely deprived, consciousness follows.

A sigh seemed to drift through the air, and then everything vanished as it had at the beginning.

A fiery red figure rushed anxiously from the horizon. It was Jingwei, her eyes filled with tears, her upper teeth biting her lower lip Sisi blood seeped out, completely unaware of her own actions.

Just as the Immortal Slaying Saber Light arrived in an instant, so too did Jingwei's figure.

He reached out and caught Fu Hua's falling body; it was icy cold.

She couldn't utter any other words besides that. Fu Hua's body was cold, the temperature of a corpse.

Tears welled in Jingwei's eyes and fell, but they couldn't warm Fu Hua's body.

Ice, cold

"Crimson Kite... sir"

Her voice choked with emotion, there were too many feelings she couldn't express.

As the light faded and night fell once more, the cool night air couldn't compare to Jingwei's icy heart.

The surrounding air rippled, indicating that someone was rushing over, perhaps wanting to see what was so special that it warranted such a celestial phenomenon.

Jingwei's heart was very still, eerily still. Her crimson eyes scanned her surroundings, as if trying to memorize everyone's faces. She took a step...

With just one step, the world becomes an insurmountable distance.

Shrink Ground into an Inch

Jingwei was very strong, comparable to people like Qian Daoliu, but she was also weak because she was not as cunning as humans.

She possessed strength but didn't know how to use it, so she hated...

She regretted not learning the skills Fu Hua taught her sooner, and she regretted not having the strength to contend with Qian Daoliu.

No matter how great the strength, it's still just strength. Without skill, how much power can one unleash?

The darkness was terrifying. When the group got closer, they couldn't find any trace of anything, because everything there had been destroyed.

Bibi Dong approached, looked around, and frowned slightly.

Is it over?

Beside Bibi Dong, the woman looked up, her smile gone, as if she no longer wanted to wear a fake one.

Looking up at the sky, a gentle breeze caressed me, and specks of moonlight fell, illuminating this disheveled scene.

"Is it over? Perhaps it's only just begun!"

Golden-red eyes, fiery red hair, a mature and alluring face

Bibi Dong looked around again, but still couldn't find a trace. She turned back to look at the woman, her eyes gentle and her voice soft.

"The continent is about to be reshuffled. Once the dust settles, it will all be over. Let's go, Himeko!"

The bright moonlight bathed the earth in a silvery white glow.

An end is also a beginning

P. S.: I thought you guys would scold me for skipping a day, but... I don't know whether to be happy or sad.

PS1: To be honest, I've been reading "The Imperial Treasure" lately and I'm completely hooked. So, naturally, this is how it happened... But I'm also thinking about whether I should post this chapter on the last day, since it's a good start and an end. It's the end of the month, and I'll take a day off tomorrow to think about the next volume. To be honest, it's a bit complicated.

PS2: At the same time, the side story begins. Although it is not about the Douluo Continent, it is still closely related to this book. Otherwise, I would not have written the side story at this critical juncture. After a day of thinking, I decided to write the side story separately from this book, because the two books can stand alone, so there is no problem. When it is published, please add it to your favorites. I don't ask for a lot of views, I just hope it will be popular.
