Get Back There!! Th-This Definitely Isn't Teacher!
Lin Xia looked at the terrifying shadow that loomed closer and closer, feeling the increasingly strong call for "integration" from the depths of her soul. She gave a bitter smile and prepared to retract the Ivysaur into her body one last time, at least... to prevent it from becoming part of that monster's body.
Let it suffer less!
Just then--
"Snort!"
A clear, majestic snort, seemingly imbued with supreme will, suddenly resounded through the canyon like thunder from the heavens!
The sound wasn't deafening, but it carried an undeniable power of law, instantly dispelling the foul whispers and the urge to merge that shrouded the depths of Lin Xia and Ivysaur's souls!
It was as if the warm sunlight had pierced through millennia of ice!
A tall, aloof figure appeared without warning, as if teleporting, in front of Lin Xia and the collapsed Ivysaur!
Her dark purple outfit fluttered in the strong wind, outlining her perfect figure.
It was Bibi Dong!
With her back to Lin Xia, she faced the terrifying, hundred-meter-tall Corpse Colossus, as if confronting a repulsive insect.
That exquisite face was devoid of any expression, only a chilling indifference that seemed to Ice Seal the world.
In his deep Viola eyes burned a fury colder than the ice of the deepest hell, and... a divine might that belonged to those in power, looking down upon all living beings!
She didn't even glance at the monster, as if looking at it would be a desecration of her eyes.
His gaze Infiltrator the twisted aggregate of corpses, as if looking directly at the core of a cold will deep within the canyon.
Her lips parted slightly, her voice low, yet it carried the weight of divine judgment, Infiltrator the howling winds and monster roars of the canyon with unwavering clarity. Every word carried a soul-chilling authority and an irresistible command.
"Go back!"
Boom--!!!
An invisible divine power, like a tangible tsunami, erupted with a deafening roar centered on Bibi Dong!
The Corpse Colossus, towering over a hundred meters tall, was a terrifying being that devoured the heavens and earth just a moment ago, but now it seemed as if it had been struck hard by an invisible giant hammer, its massive, twisted body trembling violently.
The countless corpses that made up its body emitted silent screams, and the eerie green Will-O-Wisp flickered wildly, revealing a fear that originated from instinct and penetrated to the bone.
It didn't even dare to roar. The gaping maw of the Abyss, which had just swallowed the Solar Beam, suddenly closed, as if afraid that the slightest leak of its breath would cause an even greater calamity.
The next second, its massive body suddenly sank downwards in a manner completely opposite to its previous clumsy movements, almost frantically!
Rumble rumble rumble--!
The earth groaned in agony once more, the massive cracks closing frantically as it sank, and rubble and mud poured in like a waterfall.
In just a few breaths, the terrifying shadow that blotted out the sky vanished completely beneath the cracked ground, leaving behind only a bottomless, enormous pit filled with the smell of sulfur and decay, and a mess of skeletal remains in the canyon, proving its existence.
The entrance to Death Canyon instantly fell into an eerie silence.
Lin Xia collapsed to the ground, the weakness brought on by the depletion of his Soul Power surged like a tide, but at this moment he seemed to forget the pain in his body. All his senses and all his mental power were fixed on the dark purple figure blocking his way.
Bibi Dong.
She still had her back to Lin Xia, her posture upright and aloof, like a peerless divine sword standing amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
The well-tailored dark purple outfit fluttered and rustled even without wind, amplified by the lingering divine power.
However, what made Lin Xia's hair stand on end and her heart almost stop was the divine aura that enveloped her, completely replacing the Pope's usual majesty!
It was freezing cold! Absolutely freezing cold!
It wasn't Bibi Dong's usual coldness, tinged with murderous intent and a desire for control, but rather a kind of indifference that looked down upon millions of ants and regarded all things as straw dogs.
It was as if she were not a person, but an ancient being, formed from the condensation of laws and chaos... a god!
Lin Xia's pupils contracted sharply. An unprecedented sense of unfamiliarity, like a cold, venomous snake, instantly Wrap around his heart, making him feel suffocated.
The aura emanating from the "Bibi Dong" before him was completely different from that of his teacher, the Empress of the Spirit Hall!
Her very existence seemed to strip away all human warmth and emotion, leaving only a pure, soul-chilling majesty and power.
'This... this is definitely not a teacher!'
A chilling thought exploded in his mind like a thunderclap.
'It's a god! Rakshasa God! He actually... descended directly through the teacher's body?!'
The moment Lin Xia thought of this, she felt a chill run from the soles of her feet straight to the top of her head, and cold sweat instantly soaked through her clothes, making them sticky and icy.
Lin Xia even found it extremely difficult to control his breathing. He could only stare intently at that figure's back, fear engulfing him like tangible ice water.
Just as Lin Xia was almost suffocating under the pressure of this unfamiliar divine power, the figure slowly turned around.
Facing him head-on, Lin Xia felt as if an invisible hand was gripping her heart tightly!
Bibi Dong's face was still that breathtakingly perfect face, but those Viola eyes that had once made him feel oppressed, awe-inspiring, and even occasionally revealing complex emotions were now completely different!
It remained profound, but devoid of any human emotional fluctuations.
Deep within his pupils, it seemed to contain an endless vortex of stars, or a reflection of the icy pools of the deepest hell, cold, indifferent, and aloof.
That wasn't the gaze of Bibi Dong scrutinizing her disciples, but rather the look of a deity observing a... somewhat peculiar creation.
There was no concern whatsoever, no sense of relief, only a pure, emotionless scrutiny.
That's definitely not a human eye!
That "gaze" lingered on Lin Xia for several seconds.
Those few seconds felt like centuries.
Lin Xia felt as if she had been stripped naked and thrown onto an autopsy table, with the deepest secrets of her soul laid bare under that cold gaze.
Lin Xia used almost all her willpower to suppress the instinctive trembling in her body and the urge to look away.
Then, that emotionless gaze finally shifted from Lin Xia and landed on Ivysaur, who was also collapsed beside him, its breath weak but still stubbornly maintaining its protective instincts.
"Your Martial Soul..."
That clear, cold, and dignified voice belonging to Bibi Dong rang out again, but the tone carried an ethereal quality that was inhuman, as if composed of countless echoes.
"That's interesting."
The moment she finished speaking, Bibi Dong casually pointed her finger forward.
A beam of light, condensed to its utmost purity and radiating a deep, eerie purple, shot out silently from her fingertip as if by teleportation, precisely piercing the center of the giant flower bud on Ivysaur's back!
"Da... na..."
Ivysaur let out a short, strange hiss, and its body suddenly stiffened!
That was not pain, but a violent shock originating from the very source of life!
