Cai Wenji watched her lose control, a trace of pity appearing on her delicate little face.
Holding her Hu Jia Qin, she spoke in a sweet, childish voice.
"Bibi Dong, you're so pitiful."
"You're like a frog at the bottom of a well, completely unaware of just how vast the sky was that you pushed away."
"Brother Qian Yu was such an outstanding man, yet you were blind enough to divorce him for the sake of Yu Xiaogang."
"But that's fine too. It just happens to be my opportunity."
Those words were like the sharpest blades, stabbing viciously into Bibi Dong's heart.
"Shut up!"
Bibi Dong roared, no longer able to suppress the killing intent within her.
"You little bitch, today I'll show you what real power is!"
Before her words had even faded, purple light erupted from her body!
"Fourth Soul Skill, Spider Web Restraint!"
A gigantic purple spiderweb appeared out of thin air, carrying intensely corrosive venom as it descended upon Cai Wenji like lightning.
"Teacher has made her move!"
Hu Liena's face immediately lit up with excitement.
In her heart, her teacher was invincible!
That little girl who didn't know her place would surely be subdued by her teacher with ease!
Qian Daoliu's heart rose to his throat, his expression grave.
The current Bibi Dong was unfathomably powerful, already far beyond him.
If Lady Cai Wenji lost, then no matter what, even if he had to risk his old life, he would ensure his savior escaped this place!
Yet, facing this assured strike, there was not the slightest trace of panic on Cai Wenji's little face.
She merely raised her head. A glimmer flashed through her pure blue eyes as she sweetly spoke four words.
"Life Echo!"
Ding—!
A crisp zither note rang out.
Cai Wenji's fair little hand gently plucked the strings, and a ring of emerald-green sound waves abruptly spread outward from her!
The venomous purple spiderweb dissolved into nothingness like melting ice and snow the instant it came into contact with the green sound waves!
Immediately afterward, countless emerald-green notes flew from the Hu Jia Qin. They gathered in the air, transforming into green arrows of light that rained down upon Bibi Dong!
"What?!"
Bibi Dong's pupils suddenly contracted.
She could sense that those arrows of musical notes contained vast, terrifying life force—but to her, that life force was as deadly as the most lethal poison!
She did not dare let down her guard. Crossing her arms before her chest, she unleashed her Soul Power without reservation.
"Sixth Spirit Skill, Soul Devouring Spider Armor!"
A suit of ferocious dark-green armor instantly covered her entire body.
But it was useless!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The dense arrows of musical notes struck the armor, producing a rapid series of metallic clashes.
The seemingly indestructible Soul Devouring Spider Armor began to develop countless cracks at a visible speed!
In the end, with a sharp cracking sound, it exploded apart!
Pfft—!
Bibi Dong suffered a heavy blow and violently spat out a mouthful of blood. Her body flew backward, crashing hard into a stone pillar of the Worship Hall before she barely came to a stop.
She slowly slid to the ground, then lifted her head. Her beautiful face was filled with shock and disbelief.
"How... is this possible?"
She muttered to herself, her voice trembling.
"You're only a mere Support System soul master. How can you possibly be this strong?!"
"I possess Twin Martial Souls! The Death Spider Emperor and Soul Devouring Spider Emperor are both among the continent's finest martial souls!"
"I, Bibi Dong, am the future master of Spirit Hall, the future Rakshasa God! How could I possibly lose to a Support System soul master carrying a broken zither?!"
She could not accept this fact!
"Teacher!"
Hu Liena cried out in alarm. The smile on her face had long since frozen, replaced by deathly pallor.
Teacher... was actually injured?
A three- or four-year-old little girl had wounded her with one move and made her cough up blood?!
Qian Daoliu's eyelids twitched wildly as a monstrous wave surged through his heart.
More than anyone else, he understood Bibi Dong's strength. She was someone against whom even he had no chance of victory!
Yet now, such a powerful Bibi Dong had been beaten by Cai Wenji until she vomited blood!
A Support System soul master could actually crush Bibi Dong, who possessed Twin Martial Souls?
What in the world was happening to this world?
Just as the hall fell into dead silence, the Heavenly Screen above the nine heavens changed once again.
The golden light was more dazzling than ever before, as though it intended to dye the entire continent gold!
A line of even more majestic and domineering golden characters slowly emerged, suppressing heaven and earth!
[Spirit Ranking, Eighth Place!] [Martial Soul Name: Spring Autumn Spirit Brush!] [Holder: Shangguan Wan'er (Great Tang Empire)!]
Another person from the Great Tang Empire!
At that moment, every soul master on the continent stopped breathing.
Then, the image on the Heavenly Screen shifted.
It showed a vast sea of clouds, drifting and rolling amid an ethereal aura.
A writing brush carved entirely from warm white jade floated quietly above the sea of clouds.
Mountains, rivers, the sun, moon, birds, beasts, fish, and insects were carved upon its shaft, as though it contained a miniature reflection of the entire world.
The bristles at its tip were a pure gold, each one emitting faint Divine Light as though boundless Dao essence flowed within them.
Simply looking at it made one's mind sway, as though one could see the rushing river of history and feel the accumulation of countless years and ages.
This brush seemed not to be a mortal object, but a divine artifact that governed the literary fortune of heaven and earth and wrote the eternal history of all ages!
Suddenly, the Spring Autumn Spirit Brush moved.
It lightly drew a stroke through the void.
There was no earth-shattering boom, nor any power capable of destroying heaven and earth.
Yet as its tip descended, a visible trail of ink severed the space ahead—along with the churning sea of clouds!
The cut was smooth as a mirror, and even the Law of Space was thrown into disorder!
[Its ink possesses formidable offensive power. Brush Falls Startling Wind and Rain; one stroke can sever spring and autumn!]
The words on the Heavenly Screen explained that terrifying scene.
The image shifted again. The Spring Autumn Spirit Brush danced through the air, its strokes winding like dragons and serpents as it wrote the character "Suppress."
The golden character "Suppress" left the brush tip and instantly expanded, transforming into an invisible mountain that completely suppressed the surging sea of clouds below, rendering it utterly motionless!
[One stroke brings Words Follow Law, capable of commanding the elemental power of heaven and earth!]
Immediately afterward, countless phantoms of soul skills appeared upon the Heavenly Screen, blasting toward the Spring Autumn Spirit Brush like a violent storm.
At the instant those attacks were about to strike it, a Landscape Scroll suddenly unfurled beneath the spirit brush.
The spirit brush hovered above the scroll, emanating an aura detached from the world. Every attack that came within three feet of it strangely passed straight through, failing to harm it in the slightest!
[While in the sky, it can place itself in an invincible state for a period of time, unaffected by anything! This is the godly skill of Airborne Invincibility!]
Every word on the Heavenly Screen was like a heavy hammer striking fiercely against everyone's hearts.
[Rank: Super God Level detached Weapon Spirit!] [Reward: The holder's Soul Power is solidified eightfold, and the age of all Spirit Rings increases by two hundred thousand years! Obtains godly skill: Word Spirit · Guard!]
