Giving It Your All

"Are you all ready?"

Huo Yuhao activated his Eye of Destiny and offered the group a faint smile.

"My power is now sufficient to form a massive protective barrier around us. Within three days, even if the God of Destruction were to descend in person, it would take him three hours to break through this seal."

"That is enough."

Lin Yi nodded in satisfaction.

"Yuhao, I must trouble you to unleash the power of your Sea of Consciousness. This time, we must obtain the strength to overcome everything!"

Huo Yuhao fell silent for a moment, a look of profound depth crossing his face.

"In truth, I believe the true power is already within us; we simply haven't realized it yet."

"What power?"

Yu Xiaogang cast his gaze toward him. "Are you referring to the hope within humanity?"

"Exactly."

Huo Yuhao smiled at the group once more. "This time, what we must ignite is the hope in our hearts. Only with this can we secure the chance for a decisive, one-hit kill."

"Very well, let us begin."

Lin Yi had long been impatient, instantly manifesting his Three-Life Martial Soul.

Watching him, Bibi Dong could not help but let out a soft huff.

"You brat, you really are something else. To think you aren't afraid at all at a time like this?"

"What is there to fear?"

Lin Yi smiled calmly.

"I only know that rather than being afraid, it is better to face it head-on."

"Well said!"

Huo Yuhao nodded, simultaneously expanding his immense spiritual power to envelop everyone present.

The sheer intensity of this force was beyond what they had anticipated.

Once Lin Yi and the others were drawn in, Bibi Dong, Tang San, and Xiao Wu immediately formed a defensive cluster, establishing their base of operations for the battle.

Seeing the power Bibi Dong had manifested, Lin Yi could not help but chuckle.

"Senior Bibi Dong, you truly are formidable to have formed a circular defense. With this kind of power, even I wouldn't be able to crush you in one go."

"Glad you know."

Bibi Dong smiled faintly, her gaze sharpening significantly.

"This time, in order to conduct this intensive assault training for you, I have put forth every effort and will not hold back!"

As she spoke, Bibi Dong released her twin Martial Souls.

This was the first time Bibi Dong had unleashed such overwhelming power against an opponent.

Generally, activating twin Martial Souls simultaneously would lead to extreme exhaustion, but because they were within the Sea of Consciousness, Bibi Dong remained perfectly composed despite the immense power she was exerting.

"Angel Martial Soul!"

When Lin Yi utilized this Martial Soul, Bibi Dong's expression shifted instantly, and she rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"You're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"

"I'm innocent."

Lin Yi spread his hands toward her. "I have no ulterior motives; I just thought..."

"Blood-Devouring Spider Emperor, Death Spider Emperor!"

At that very moment, Bibi Dong launched a sudden strike, catching Lin Yi off guard.

"Flying Dragon in the Sky!"

Lin Yi vaulted into the air, but Tang San's Sea God Trident came thrusting fiercely toward him.

"Dragon Binding!"

As Lin Yi dodged, he was struck from behind by Xiao Wu's Waist Bow, sending his body spinning through the air before he crashed onto the open ground nearby.

"You were careless."

Xiao Wu smiled faintly and assumed her stance once more.

"Second Spirit Skill: Moon Shadow Assault!"

Watching Xiao Wu's figure flash rapidly before him, Lin Yi dodged once again, simultaneously channeling the power of his spirit bone into his left hand.

"Dragon's End."

"Xiao Wu, watch out!"

Bibi Dong swiftly released her invincible spirit skill—Eternal Wound.

Having tasted that experience before, Lin Yi naturally would not be struck by the same move again. He smiled faintly, dodged with agility, and delivered a kick to Bibi Dong's back.

Bibi Dong, having been kicked, did not show any anger; instead, she smiled indifferently.

"You brat, you really are different from before. You now have enough qualifications to be my opponent."

As she spoke, she once again released her 100,000-year Soul Ring.

Although this 100,000-year Soul Ring could not be mentioned in the same breath as a million-year one, because it was imbued with the Slaughter Aura of Slaughter City, even if Bibi Dong's rank was not as powerful as Lin Yi's, she could definitely suppress him with her sheer momentum.

Good grief, if I had known there was such a powerful Slaughter Aura, I should have chosen to obtain the power of Slaughter City in the most brutal way possible. If I had, I might have had a fighting chance.

"You're distracted again."

As Bibi Dong spoke, she released her seventh soul skill, Demon Spider Blade. Sheets of spider-like blades flew toward Lin Yi, who dodged them unhurriedly while closing his eyes.

"Fusion Martial Soul, Blazing Sun Dragon God Slash!"

When the Angel Martial Soul and the power of the Dragon God fused together, everyone was shocked, for that power was truly immense; even Bibi Dong was sent flying back a great distance by the impact.

"Invincible Golden Body!"

Bibi Dong used the recoil force to block Lin Yi's power and smiled faintly.

"Brat, you've passed. Next, go and compete with Tang San. Xiao Wu and I shall take our leave!"
