Brutalizing Demon Bear Douluo, Slapping Bibi Dong in the Face

As soon as Demon Bear Douluo finished speaking, Zhao Ming rolled his eyes.

With a thought, the Fortune-Gathering Domain unfolded silently.

After condensing its Third Soul Ring, the range of the Treasure-Dropping Coin's Fortune-Gathering Domain increased dramatically, now covering the entire Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

An invisible wave emanated from Zhao Ming and spread outwards, subtly distorting everyone's perception within the area.

This is a high-level application of Simulation. Those whose mental strength is inferior to his are like having their eyes blindfolded and ears plugged in this domain. They can only see what Zhao Ming wants them to see and hear what Zhao Ming wants them to hear.

At this moment, the palace guards, eunuchs, maids, and the royal retainers hidden in the shadows, all under the influence of the Fortune-Gathering Domain, turned a blind eye to everything happening in the square.

Their perception was subtly redirected; in their minds, His Majesty the Emperor was having a "friendly conversation" with two Titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall, and everything seemed normal, so there was no need to be nervous.

Those outside the domain have no way of seeing what is happening inside.

The light at the edge of the Fortune-Gathering Domain was distorted into a blurry golden mist, completely isolating the entire plaza from the outside world.

After doing all this, Zhao Ming slowly and deliberately spoke.

"Sister Xue'er finally conquered the Heaven Dou Empire, Bibi Dong wants to steal the fruits of her labor?" His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of Demon Bear Douluo and the Sinister Old Man. "She doesn't even deserve it!"

The air seemed to freeze upon hearing this.

Upon hearing this, Demon Bear Douluo roared in fury, "How dare you! How dare you address His Holiness the Pope by his given name!"

The Sinister Old Man behind him also darkened his expression, and his chilling aura suddenly surged, like a venomous snake locking onto its prey.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ming curled his lip in disdain.

"What's wrong with calling her name? Her name Bibi Dong, is made of gold, can't I call it?" He flipped his right hand, and Silver Whip whip appeared out of thin air in his palm. The silver whip shimmered with a cold luster in the sunlight, and the fine patterns on the whip flowed slowly as if they were alive.

At the same time, seven Soul Ring rose from beneath Zhao Ming's feet.

Yellow, purple, black, black, black, red, red.

Two red, Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, like two blood moons, slowly rotated around Zhao Ming, their aura causing the pupils of Demon Bear Douluo and the Sinister Old Man to shrink sharply at the same time.

"Soul Saint possesses two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring?!!" The Sinister Old Man exclaimed in shock, his sinister expression instantly replaced by horror.

However, what shocked them even more was yet to come.

The Treasure-Dropping Coin flew out of Zhao Ming's body and hovered above his head.

The golden Soul Ring of Wealth Authority and power lit up, its dazzling light illuminating the entire square as if it were daytime.

The next moment, a surge of Wealth Aura flowed out from the Wealth Authority, transforming into pure Soul Power and flowing into Zhao Ming's body.

The immense Soul Power formed a visible shockwave around him, causing the stone slabs on the plaza to crack inch by inch.

Zhao Ming lifted his foot and stepped on the air, walking through the air like Titled Douluo, heading towards Demon Bear Douluo.

At the same time, Silver Whip's first and second Soul Skill Soul Skill activated simultaneously.

With gold and emerald green intertwined, Zhao Ming's momentum rose steadily.

When he reached the opposite side of Demon Bear Douluo, this level 95 Titled Douluo was horrified to find that both his Soul Power and aura were suppressed by the young man in front of him.

"What kind of monster is this kid?!" The Demon Bear Douluo was shocked. He had seen countless geniuses with the backing of the Spirit Hall, but he had never seen a Soul Saint who could unleash a pressure comparable to Titled Douluo.

What's even more terrifying is that the mysterious aura emanating from this kid made even a Titled Douluo like himself instinctively tremble.

But Demon Bear Douluo was, after all, a veteran Titled Douluo who had experienced countless battles. After a brief moment of shock, he quickly suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind.

No matter how wicked this kid is, the dignity of Titled Douluo cannot be challenged, and the majesty of His Holiness the Pope cannot be desecrated!

"Blood Demon Berserk Bear, possess me!" Demon Bear Douluo roared.

"Fifth Soul Skill - Demon Bear Earth-Splitting Claw!" Demon Bear Douluo swung his right arm, and five huge blood-red claw marks appeared out of thin air. Each one was several feet long, incomparably sharp, and carried a power that could tear everything apart as it grabbed at Zhao Ming.

Where the claw marks passed, the air was cut with a piercing shriek.

Zhao Ming remained expressionless, raised his Silver Whip, and activated his fifth Soul Skill, Strength Control.

The Silver Whip's fifth Soul Skill, Strength Control, allows it to amplify Zhao Ming's power at will, as many times as his body can withstand.

With Zhao Ming's current cultivation level, the maximum amplification factor for his Strength Control is two hundred times.

However, thirty times the power would be enough to deal with the Demon Bear Douluo's fifth Soul Skill.

The Silver Whip lashed out, unleashing thirty times the force of its original power. The silver whip shadow, like a bolt of lightning, ripped through the sky and collided violently with the five bloody claw marks.

With a deafening roar, the blood-red claw marks shattered inch by inch under the impact of the Silver Whip, dissipating into a sky full of bloody light.

The Silver Whip, its power undiminished, continued to blast towards Demon Bear Douluo.

Demon Bear Douluo's expression changed, clearly not expecting his fifth Soul Skill to be broken so easily.

But he didn't have time to think, because Zhao Ming was already rushing towards him at an extremely fast speed.

"Sixth Soul Skill: Silver Whip Sky-Piercing Strike!" Zhao Ming's Sixth Soul Ring for his Silver Whip lit up.

Demon Bear Douluo's pupils contracted; his rich combat experience made him instinctively sense danger. He dared not be careless, and his Sixth Soul Ring lit up simultaneously.

"Sixth Soul Skill: Demon Bear Protection!"

A yellowish-brown light erupted from the Demon Bear Douluo, forming a thick, circular shield around his body.

The shield was dark yellow in color and exuded an aura of indestructibility.

Demon Bear Protection is Demon Bear Douluo's strongest defensive Soul Skill, which has saved his life many times in battle. He is confident that even a full-force attack from a level Level 96 Titled Douluo might not be able to break through this shield.

However, to the Demon Bear Douluo's utter surprise, the moment the Silver Whip struck the shield, it passed right through it as if it were a curtain of water, without any obstruction.

The Demon Bear Protection's seemingly impenetrable defense proved utterly ineffective against the Silver Whip Sky-Piercing Strike.

"What?!" Demon Bear Douluo's pupils shrank sharply.

He wasn't stupid; he immediately realized that Zhao Ming's Soul Skill ignored defense.

At this moment, he no longer cared about his status Titled Douluo. Just as the Silver Whip was about to strike his chest, he activated his Martial Soul Avatar in advance.

"Seventh Soul Skill: Demon Bear True Body!" Demon Bear Douluo's figure swelled once more, his eyes turned blood red, and sharp fangs grew from his mouth, transforming him completely into a blood-red giant bear that walked upright.

"When!"

The Silver Whip lashed fiercely across the chest of the Demon Bear Douluo, producing a deafening clang like metal clashing.

Having awakened his Martial Soul Avatar, Demon Bear Douluo's physical body reached an extremely terrifying level. Even the Silver Whip Sky-Piercing Strike's ability to ignore defense could not completely penetrate the physical enhancement brought about by the Martial Soul Avatar.

Even so, the power of this whip should not be underestimated.

"Pfft!" Demon Bear Douluo spat out a mouthful of blood, his massive body flying backward, tumbling dozens of meters in the air before barely managing to regain his footing.

This is also related to the fact that the two fought in the air. If they had been on the ground, the earth would have cushioned their fall, and Demon Bear Douluo wouldn't have been sent flying so far.

"Damn it!" Demon Bear Douluo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a hint of shock, anger, and fear flashing in his eyes. "This kid is strange; I have to show him my true abilities."

He took a deep breath, no longer hesitating, and his ninth Soul Ring lit up.

"Ninth Soul Skill: Lie Yan Meteor Fall!"

This is Demon Bear Douluo's strongest attack Soul Skill, and also his trump card.

The ninth Soul Skill of a level 95 Titled Douluo is so powerful that it can level a small mountain.

The sky suddenly darkened, and a huge shadow enveloped the entire square.

Zhao Ming looked up and saw a huge meteorite with a diameter of over twenty meters falling from the sky. The meteorite was burning with raging Lie Yan and had a long tail of fire, like a falling sun, rushing towards him with a world-destroying force.

Even before the meteorite landed, the terrifying heat and pressure had already turned the stone slabs in the square red.

Zhao Ming's gaze sharpened; he dared not be careless. With a thought, his Seventh Soul Ring lit up, and he activated his Martial Soul Avatar!

At the same time, the fifth Soul Skill, Strength Control, was activated once again.

This time, Zhao Ming amplified his power sixtyfold!

With his strength amplified sixty times, Zhao Ming felt as if a volcano was erupting inside him, every muscle and every bone filled with explosive power.

He gripped his Silver Whip tightly and lashed it out at the Lie Yan meteorite that had fallen from the sky.

The silver whip-like shadow shot upwards against the sky, colliding violently with the Lie Yan meteorite.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar erupted, and the Lie Yan meteorite shattered under the bombardment of the Silver Whip, turning into countless burning fragments that flew in all directions.

The rubble fell onto the square, creating charred craters, but Zhao Ming himself was unharmed.

The pupils of the Demon Bear Douluo shrank to pinpoints.

His ninth Soul Skill was actually shattered by a single whip from his opponent?!

However, Zhao Ming didn't give him any time to be shocked.

After shattering the meteorite, Zhao Ming moved his feet and transformed into a silver streak of light, shooting towards the Demon Bear Douluo.

He was using the Shangqing Sword Technique, personally taught by the God of Wealth Zhao Gongming.

This was also the first time Zhao Ming had used this sword technique in the Douluo Continent. The main reason was that he was not Titled Douluo. While powerful Soul Power could lift him up, it was not enough for him to fly freely, so he could only rely on this sword technique.

Although it's called swordsmanship, this set of moves actually encompasses Yongjin's killing techniques.

Swordsmanship, knife skills, spear techniques, whip techniques—all kinds of weapons can be incorporated into it, creating endless variations that are impossible to discern.

The Shangqing Sword Technique is the Intercepting Sect martial art of the Shangqing lineage of the Jie Sect. Zhao Gongming used this killing technique to terrify the Twelve Golden Immortal of the Expounding Sect during the God-Sealing War.

Zhao Ming used the Eight Trigrams Step, his figure moving as elusive as Gui Mei.

The Eight Trigrams Step is the core footwork of the Shangqing Sword Technique, which is in harmony with the numbers of the Eight Trigrams of Heaven and Earth. Each step has sixty-four variations. The enemy may see him on the left, but in the next instant he has already appeared on the right. The enemy may feel that he is in front, but his attack comes from behind.

Demon Bear Douluo only felt a blur before his eyes, and Zhao Ming's figure had already disappeared from his sight.

He instinctively tried to turn around to defend himself, but the Silver Whip, amplified by sixty times its normal strength, had already struck him.

With a force 60 times greater than normal, Demon Bear Douluo was once again sent flying. Zhao Ming followed up with the Eight Trigrams Step, continuously bombarding Demon Bear Douluo in mid-air.

Zhao Ming's whip technique was like the Yangtze River, flowing endlessly.

The Eight Trigrams Step allowed him to move through the air as if on flat ground. Each flash was perfectly timed to appear where the Demon Bear Douluo had been knocked away, and each whip strike was precisely aimed at the Demon Bear Douluo's most vulnerable spot.

With a force sixty times greater than normal and the sharp, penetrating power of the Silver Whip's true form, even the Martial Soul Avatar of the Demon Bear Douluo gradually could not withstand it.

With a crisp "crack!", the Demon Bear Douluo's Martial Soul Avatar was shattered.

Without the protection of his Martial Soul Avatar, Demon Bear Douluo's defenses plummeted. Zhao Ming lashed him in the chest with another whip, and he groaned, his vision went black, and he completely fainted.

From the start to the end of the war, it took no more than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

A level 95 Titled Douluo was knocked unconscious by Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming carried the unconscious Demon Bear Douluo with one hand as easily as he would a chick.

He walked through the void, step by step, back to Qian Renxue. He threw the Demon Bear Douluo to the ground, clapped his hands, and spoke as casually as if he had just gone out to buy groceries.

"Sister Xue'er, I'll leave this to you."

Qian Renxue looked at the unconscious Demon Bear Douluo on the ground, then looked up at Zhao Ming, her golden eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

She knew Zhao Ming was very strong; before he went into seclusion, Zhao Ming, with his Soul Saint physique, had already defeated the Titled Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect.

But that's because the Clear Sky Sect's Martial Soul was countered by Zhao Ming, and the Demon Bear Douluo in front of them is a level 95 Titled Douluo!

Qian Renxue never expected that after half a year of seclusion, Zhao Ming would have become so strong that he could defeat a level 95 Titled Douluo head-on and completely crush him, leaving the opponent no chance to fight back.

This is beyond what the word "genius" can describe; this is a monster, a prodigy, an existence that can make the entire continent tremble.

"You..." Qian Renxue opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

Meanwhile, the Sinister Old Man who had been silent all along had turned deathly pale.

He witnessed firsthand the entire process of Demon Bear Douluo being utterly defeated by Zhao Ming, and the shock he felt was beyond words.

Demon Bear Douluo was a level 95 Titled Douluo, three levels higher than him. Even Demon Bear Douluo was no match for Zhao Ming, so it would be a waste for him to go up against him.

"Who... who exactly are you?" the Sinister Old Man asked, his voice trembling.

Zhao Ming turned his head and gave him a half-smile, "Me? My name is Zhao Ming, the Chief Alchemist of the Pill Tower. Go back and tell Bibi Dong that the Heaven Dou Empire is not something she can just control."

Xue'er's ascension to the throne is an internal affair of the Heaven Dou Empire, and it's none of the Spirit Hall's business to interfere. As for this invitation..."

As he spoke, he bent down to pick up the gold-embossed invitation that had fallen to the ground. With a casual squeeze, the invitation turned into a cloud of golden powder in his hand, which fell through his fingers.

"I refused on behalf of Sister Xue'er. If she has any complaints, she can come to me."
