Ye Fan's Death, Bibi Dong's Scheme

"What's going on with that soul bone?"

The same question arose in both Qian Daoliu's and Bibi Dong's minds.

Bibi Dong naturally recognized the Soul Devouring Jellyfish Right Arm Bone. She had gifted it to Su Qi.

But Gui Mei had deliberately concealed things before, so she did not know that Su Qi also possessed an External Left Palm Bone.

Qian Daoliu, meanwhile, had seen the External Left Palm Bone during Su Qi and Qian Renxue's sparring match some time ago, but he had never seen the Soul Devouring Jellyfish Right Arm Bone.

Only after getting a clear look did he realize that this Soul Devouring Jellyfish Right Arm Bone was the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone Ye Fan had left behind.

Among Spirit Hall's current geniuses, Su Qi truly was the only one worthy of using Ye Fan's soul bone.

However, Bibi Dong's gift of the soul bone was surely not solely because Su Qi's talent was outstanding. She also intended to win him over!

Just as Golden Crocodile Worshipper had said, this woman truly wanted to groom Su Qi to deal with the Angel Lineage.

Just as Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong emerged from their doubts, a crimson sword mark appeared between Su Qi's brows.

The Asura divine sense turned into two streams of crimson light, entering the two soul bones separately.

The dark blue Soul Devouring Jellyfish bone was swiftly dyed dark red.

Meanwhile, the originally dark red External Left Palm Bone did not change color, yet both it and the Soul Devouring Jellyfish Right Arm Bone gained a trace of divinity.

Bibi Dong grew even more confused at the sight.

Qian Daoliu's pupils contracted sharply, and he could not help saying, "Those two soul bones of this child's have actually become Asura Legacy Soul Bones?"

Bibi Dong's heart shook violently upon hearing this.

She stared at the two soul bones on Su Qi's left palm and right arm.

Only then did she understand why the Rakshasa divine power inside her was so fearful and evasive.

Under the influence of the Asura divine sense, those two soul bones had evolved into Asura Legacy Soul Bones.

Spirit Hall's records stated that when the traits of multiple soul bones complemented one another, soul bone resonance would occur, allowing the soul bones to transform into armor.

If Su Qi gathered a complete set of soul bones, then evolved all of them into Asura Legacy Soul Bones as he had just done...

Wouldn't that mean he could condense Asura God Armor in the future without even inheriting the Asura Godhood?

Both Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong had undergone Divine Trials. The former had received the Rakshasa God Nine Trials, while the latter had received the Angel God Eight Trials.

Yet both of them knew that the Shura God granting Su Qi the right to use Asura God Armor in advance was equivalent to designating him as the next Shura God.

Upon realizing this, even powerhouses like Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong felt reverence toward Su Qi.

As Su Qi sat cross-legged before them, absorbing his spirit ring, he no longer seemed human at all. He was clearly the Shura God's favored child.

From this moment onward, whoever dared provoke Su Qi and affect the progress of his Divine Trial...

Would face the Shura God's wrath, something no person or deity could possibly bear!

As the two soul bones stabilized into Asura Legacy Soul Bones, the crimson sword mark between Su Qi's brows vanished, and the Asura Killing Aura wrapped around him withdrew into his body.

He ended his meditation and slowly opened his eyes, only then noticing Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong standing at his sides.

"Ah, the Grand Worshipper and the Pope have arrived."

Neither Qian Daoliu nor Bibi Dong was angered by Su Qi addressing them directly by their titles without honorifics.

After all, it was already giving them plenty of face for the future Shura God to call them by their titles. How could they dare expect him to add "My Lord" afterward?

Seeing that Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong had both become somewhat more respectful toward him, Su Qi understood.

They had likely seen from the Asura Legacy Soul Bones how highly the Shura God regarded him, so they had lowered their stance when dealing with him.

Having figured it out, Su Qi stopped pretending and suggested in the tone of a superior, "Since you two are already here, why not continue guarding me?"

"After absorbing my third and fourth spirit rings, along with the three-level spirit power increase bestowed by my Divine Trial rewards and the spirit power gained from the evolution of the two soul bones..."

"My spirit power level has surged directly to the level-fifty bottleneck. I can absorb my fifth spirit ring and advance again."

"I was wondering before why the Shura God had given me three God-Bestowed Spirit Rings. Now I finally understand. His old self had already calculated that I would reach the level-fifty bottleneck."

At those words, Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu exchanged glances, both seeing the astonishment on the other's face.

Three God-Bestowed Spirit Rings?

What kind of concept was that?

Bibi Dong had never received a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring as a reward from her Rakshasa Divine Trial, so naturally she did not know.

But Qian Daoliu had begun the Angel God Eight Trials long ago and had once received a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring during his Divine Trial.

Thus, he knew clearly that such spirit rings could only be obtained by completing a Divine Trial after reaching a level bottleneck.

Su Qi had completed the Asura First Trial within a year and received three God-Bestowed Spirit Rings.

That meant he had been stuck at level bottlenecks ever since reaching level thirty spirit power.

And under such circumstances, he had still cultivated to the level-forty bottleneck in such a short time?

No, he was now at level fifty!

A seven-year-old Soul King—such a monster had never appeared in the continent's history!

Even Ye Fan had needed to reach the age of ten before cultivating to the Soul King realm.

Thinking of Ye Fan, Qian Daoliu suddenly realized why Su Qi was sitting before Ye Fan's tomb and absorbing spirit rings.

The Demon Spirit Sword atop the tomb seemed much dimmer than before.

Logically, the Demon Spirit Sword was a soul bone nearly two hundred thousand years old. Only six years had passed, so the spirit power contained within it should not have dissipated so quickly.

Could it have been absorbed by Su Qi?

Was that why he had raised his spirit power by so many levels within a year?

At that thought, a strange glint flashed through Qian Daoliu's eyes.

For some reason, he vaguely felt that Su Qi and Ye Fan shared some kind of connection.

On the other side, the strange glint in Bibi Dong's eyes was even stronger.

Earlier, through the resonance between the Soul Devouring Jellyfish Right Leg Bone and Su Qi, she had guessed that Su Qi might be Ye Fan's reincarnation.

Now, with Su Qi sitting before Ye Fan's tomb and the Demon Spirit Sword's spirit power having been completely absorbed, that guess was further confirmed.

Ye Fan, Ye Fan. Who would have thought you'd be so lucky? Even the King of Slaughter failed to kill you, and instead, you truly found the path to godhood!

Cursing inwardly, Bibi Dong forcibly suppressed her unwillingness and hatred.

Back when Ye Fan had entered Slaughter City to train, Bibi Dong had personally gone there as the God of Slaughter.

She claimed that she was visiting Ye Fan on behalf of the Consecration Hall, but in truth, she had conspired with the King of Slaughter to plan that assassination.

Back then, Ye Fan had broken through to level ninety-six spirit power at only twenty-five years old. If he continued cultivating, he would surely have had a chance to become a level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo.

If the Consecration Hall had possessed two Peerless Douluo, she would have had no way to exterminate the Angel Clan, much less destroy Spirit Hall.

Furthermore, if Ye Fan had truly found the path to godhood, would he not have posed an even greater threat to her?

That was why she had conspired with the King of Slaughter to eliminate Ye Fan and weaken the Consecration Hall's overall strength.

But who could have expected that Ye Fan had not only survived, but become the present Su Qi, even obtaining an Asura Godhood superior to her Rakshasa Godhood.

At that thought, Bibi Dong closed her eyes in pain.

At that moment, she felt as despairing as Tang Hao had after being brutally beaten by the Asura divine sense.

With Su Qi, the chosen future Shura God, aiding Spirit Hall, revenge and the destruction of Spirit Hall were already impossible!

No, there was still a chance for revenge!

Bibi Dong suddenly recalled that the divine weapon the King of Slaughter had used to kill Ye Fan back then seemed to be the Asura Demon Sword.

In other words, the King of Slaughter had once been a successor of the Shura God.

He had simply been abandoned by the Shura God for some unknown reason.

If she joined forces with the King of Slaughter again, then with his Asura Demon Sword, he would surely be able to crush Su Qi's Asura Demon Sword!
