The Place of the Divine Inheritance!

Bibi Dong's voice returned to its usual cool and aloof tone, but deep within it seemed to have gained a subtle, almost Frisk, gentleness that even she herself hadn't noticed.

"The road to Death Canyon won't be smooth just because you're a good kid. Remember, there, kindness and naivety will leave you with nothing but bones."

"If you want to survive, if you want to become stronger, learn to use the blood of your enemies to wash away the pain in your innocent eyes!"

Bibi Dong's words remained cold, yet carried a hint of teasing towards Lin Xia.

"Da na!"

Ivysaur immediately followed in Lin Xia's footsteps.

"Yes, teacher! Your disciple will become the strongest!"

"Puff..."

Upon hearing Bibi Dong's lips seemed to curve upwards for an extremely brief moment, a barely perceptible arc that vanished in an instant.

"Quite the boast. Let's wait and see."

Bibi Dong didn't linger any longer, striding forward, her shadow stretching long in the morning light.

Lin Xia quickly followed, taking a couple of steps to catch up with Bibi Dong's long strides.

Lin Xia secretly glanced at the capable and Pressure profile of the woman beside her. The morning light outlined her delicate jawline, and the previous heaviness seemed to have been carried away by the wind, leaving only the sharpness of a strong person.

"Teacher..."

Lin Xia muttered something under her breath.

"Um?"

Bibi Dong didn't even turn her head.

"It looks like you have some eye discharge in the corner of your eye that you didn't wipe off properly."

"..."

Bibi Dong suddenly stopped in her tracks.

An invisible chill suddenly spread out from her center, and a few leaves in the flowerbed next to her, which were covered with dew, were instantly covered with a layer of white frost.

Ivysaur darted behind Lin Xia's legs in a flash.

Lin Xia shrank her neck and immediately added:

"It could be dew! Yes, it must be dew condensed from the morning mist! Teacher, how could someone as elegant as you have eye boogers..."

"Shut up! Say one more word and I'll throw you into the canyon to feed the 'Soul-Devouring Poison Ants'!"

Bibi Dong's voice was icy cold, but the tips of her ears seemed to be slightly red.

Without turning her head, she quickened her pace and walked forward, only raising her hand and seemingly casually rubbing the corner of her eye with the back of her finger.

Looking at Bibi Dong, Lin Xia smiled slightly. It seemed that her master's heart was slowly opening up!

At least it feels more human now, unlike before when it was so lifeless!

Several hours later, guided by Bibi Dong's seemingly slow but actually extremely long strides, the once lush mountain forest scenery suddenly became desolate and distorted.

The light seemed to be swallowed up by some invisible force; even though it should have been noon, the entrance to Death Canyon was shrouded in a depressing gloom.

A howling wind swept out from the narrow valley entrance, carrying with it a stench of decay, blood, and a deeper, more chilling atmosphere that shook the very soul, crashing down on Lin Xia.

"Hiss--!"

Lin Xia and the Ivysaur at her feet gasped almost simultaneously, their bodies shivering uncontrollably.

The chill wasn't just a low temperature; it felt more like countless cold, slippery hands probing directly into my bones, stimulating my nerves and triggering an instinctive fear.

Ivysaur lowered its body warily, and the flower buds on its back, which shimmered with a golden-red halo, suddenly burst forth with a soft yet resolute light, attempting to dispel the eerie chill.

Bibi Dong stopped in her tracks without turning around. Her dark purple outfit seemed to blend into the shadows at the canyon entrance, and her clear, cold voice broke the suffocating silence.

"You felt it? This is just the aftershock of the leakage from the entrance."

Bibi Dong's tone was calm and even, as if she were stating a trivial matter.

"With your current Soul Power and combat experience, venturing into the depths of this valley will surely lead to your death; you won't survive an hour."

Lin Xia's heart skipped a beat, Ivysaur also emitted a low "Dana," its flower bud glowing even brighter.

Lin Xia clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, just as he was pondering what Bibi Dong really meant!

Bibi Dong finally turned around slowly.

His moon-like eyes fell on Lin Xia, carrying a knowing smile.

"However, this is a trial, not a suicide mission. Once inside, I will suppress my aura and roam within a certain area, while..."

"I will prevent Soul Beast at the Soul Ancestor level and above, as well as... those unknown creatures, from launching an attack against you."

Lin Xia looked up abruptly, her astonishment almost impossible to conceal.

"Unknown creature?!"

Is this still Douluo? When did unknown creatures start appearing?!

Bibi Dong was clearly very satisfied with Lin Xia's reaction at this moment, almost as if she were teasing a child.

"What, scared?"

"Xiao Xia, do you really think that the Spirit Hall's forbidden zone only contains the recorded Soul Beast outside?"

"The Grand Pontiff told you about the origins, but it seems he didn't tell you that this world is far more... rich than you've read about in books."

Upon hearing these words, a flash of inspiration struck Lin Xia!

'Unknown... Could it be... Could it be...'

Slaughter City! Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent! Dark Gold Three-Headed Bat King!

Those primordial alien species that only exist in the Slaughter City in the original work, those terrifying beings that do not belong to the ordinary Soul Beast system at all!

Could there be something similar in Death Canyon?!

This thought was like a bucket of ice water, chilling Lin Xia to the bone! He felt that the so-called Douluo Continent he had transmigrated to had a much larger hidden iceberg beneath the surface than he had imagined!

If similar terrifying creatures to the Slaughter City also exist here, then a deeper question immediately arises.

What conceived or attracted them?

What power makes this place a trial ground comparable to the Slaughter City?

The land where gods inherit their legacy!

This thought, like a thunderclap, exploded in Lin Xia's mind!

It's Rakshasa God!

Lin Xia was almost certain!

The Slaughter City the place where the Asura God inherits his legacy, guarded by Tang Chen, and is filled with bloodshed and extreme trials.

As the opposite and antagonistic being, the Rakshasa God's place of inheritance must also be a place filled with endless death, Grudge, and dark terror!

The eerie and sinister nature of Death Canyon, its roaming with unknown creatures, and its extremely harsh environment perfectly align with the divine duties of the Rakshasa God!

More importantly, the person who led him here was none other than the future successor to the Rakshasa God — Bibi Dong!

This guess made Lin Xia's heart pound wildly, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.

Lin Xia looked at Bibi Dong's profile, which seemed to radiate a cold light in the dim light. Her deep purple eyes seemed to be able to see through everything, including his intense inner thoughts at this moment.

"Understood?"

Bibi Dong's voice pulled Lin Xia back to reality.

"Fear is just the beginning. What you need here is an absolute Covet for power and absolute clarity on the edge of death. Fear can be a driving force, or it can be a death sentence."

Bibi Dong glanced one last time at the valley entrance, which resembled the gaping maw of a giant beast, her voice carrying a barely Frisk hint of worry.

"You have fifteen minutes to adjust. After fifteen minutes, step into the valley."

"Remember, I only prevent them from attacking you first. But if you, out of foolishness, greed, or... curiosity, deliberately step into their territory and disturb them, or... you yourself invite death by provoking a beast horde weaker than Soul Ancestor and are powerless to deal with it... don't blame me for not warning you when you are torn to pieces."

"Your goal for this trip is to survive in Death Canyon for three days!"
