Meanwhile, on the other side, Xiao Wu was still on her way back to the Star Dou Forest.
As Xiao Wu hurried along without stopping, the dim yellow sky suddenly darkened.
The instant the sky turned dark, a sense of danger and pressure welled up within Xiao Wu.
Stopping in her tracks, Xiao Wu looked up at the sky.
Xiao Wu's intuition told her that both the danger and pressure came from something in the sky.
As Xiao Wu's beautiful eyes shifted toward the sky, a black dragon entered her sight. After emerging from the thick clouds, the black dragon fixed his gaze on Xiao Wu. His body was enormous—calling him large enough to blot out the sky and cover the earth would not be an exaggeration. The so-called "darkness" had also been caused by his arrival.
Under Xiao Wu's gaze, the black dragon slowly spoke and asked her.
"Are you Xiao Wu of Shrek Academy, the one who made it onto the Douluo Continent Prodigy Ranking?"
Heaven Dou Empire, Shrek Academy.
"The three of you are each fiercer than the last, so who's taking the lead?"
With a smile on his face, Bone Douluo Gu Rong asked Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, and Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen.
As he spoke, Bone Douluo Gu Rong had never imagined that in his lifetime, he would get to join forces with the three of them against an enemy.
And that enemy was Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall, who could become the future First-Level God, Rakshasa God!
What was that saying again?
The world was unpredictable!
The moment Bone Douluo Gu Rong finished speaking, before Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen could say anything, Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao answered at once, repeatedly spitting out two words: "I'll do it!"
After Tang Hao spoke, anger gradually surfaced on his face.
Tang Hao clenched the handle of the massive Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, then slowly explained why he wanted to take the lead.
"Spirit Hall framed me, claiming that I killed their Pope, Qian Xunji. For all these years, I've had to live like a rat in a hole, hiding here and fleeing there. They even forced my Clear Sky Sect to retreat into seclusion in the mountains and forests. And the culprit behind it all is Bibi Dong!"
"Bibi Dong is right before us. If I don't take revenge now, I, Tang Hao, will have failed the Clear Sky Sect that raised me—and failed myself as well! So don't compete with me for the lead! If I don't smash Bibi Dong to pieces today, I'll write my name backward!"
Boom!
After Tang Hao finished speaking, a deafening sonic boom erupted as he shot straight at Bibi Dong like a cannonball.
Once Tang Hao made the first move, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen, unwilling to fall behind, quickly followed.
Bone Douluo Gu Rong charged in last.
His role was support, not the main offense.
A great battle was now on the verge of breaking out—and immediately erupted.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Titan Thousand-Kilogram Hammer!"
"Sixth Soul Skill, Dragon Rise Heavenly Thunder Descent!"
"Sixth Soul Skill, Bone Spikes, Army Breaker!"
"Eighth Soul Skill, Seven-Kill Thunder Awakening, One Sword Shatters the Sky!"
Bibi Dong was not only a Titled Douluo at the Peak First Realm, but also possessed Twin Martial Souls, a 100,000-Year Spirit Ring, and a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. Therefore, Tang Hao and the others did not hold back in the slightest. The moment they attacked, they unleashed powerful ten-thousand-year Soul Skills, showing Bibi Dong the utmost respect.
Tang Hao and the others did not hold back?
Neither did Bibi Dong!
"Ninth Soul Skill, Immortal Body!"
Using an incomparably powerful defensive Soul Skill, Bibi Dong easily blocked the Soul Skill attacks of Tang Hao and the other four.
Immediately afterward, Bibi Dong unleashed another Soul Skill.
"Eighth Soul Skill, Spider Empress Clone!"
After the Soul Skill was successfully activated, Bibi Dong split from one into two.
One Bibi Dong was the original body.
The other Bibi Dong was a clone.
Under Bibi Dong's control, her clone charged directly at Tang Hao and the other four.
As Bibi Dong's clone attacked, Bibi Dong's original body teleported away from her original position.
Bibi Dong went to a distant location.
Don't misunderstand—Bibi Dong was not running away. She was going to put on the divine artifact, the Guangxiu Liuxian Skirt.
The moment she arrived in the distance, Bibi Dong hurriedly took the divine artifact Guangxiu Liuxian Skirt from the storage Soul Tool she carried and put it on.
After putting on the divine artifact Guangxiu Liuxian Skirt, Bibi Dong gained the confidence to wipe out every enemy.
It could not be helped. The defensive divine artifact Guangxiu Liuxian Skirt was simply too powerful. Once worn, it could negate the physical attacks of all powerhouses below gods.
Ning Fengzhi and the others knew nothing about Bibi Dong's defensive divine artifact, the Guangxiu Liuxian Skirt.
If they had known?
Ning Fengzhi would never have dared to besiege Bibi Dong.
Wearing the defensive divine artifact Guangxiu Liuxian Skirt, Bibi Dong swiftly returned to the battlefield and, together with her clone, fought Tang Hao, Chen Xin, Yu Yuanzhen, and Gu Rong.
Bibi Dong understood one principle well.
Injuring all ten fingers was far inferior to cutting off one.
Thus, she decided to focus her attacks on one of the four.
Who would she target?
In the end, she set her sights on Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen.
As for why?
There were two reasons.
First, Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen was the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had once viciously humiliated Bibi Dong's beloved, Yu Xiaogang. If possible, Bibi Dong would definitely kill Yu Xiaogang's father, Yu Yuanzhen, and avenge Yu Xiaogang!
Yu Xiaogang: "Why, thank you for killing my father to avenge me."
The second reason was that Tang Hao was powerful and difficult to kill. Sword Douluo Chen Xin had the highest Soul Power Level and was also difficult to kill. Due to his Martial Soul, Bone Douluo Gu Rong was revered as the most bizarre Titled Douluo. Just from his title—or rather, his nickname—it was clear that he was the hardest to kill among the four. Therefore, Bibi Dong could only set her sights on Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen.
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The battle was intense.
Soul Skills collided rapidly like a raging storm.
Tang Hao used five Soul Skills against Bibi Dong's original body in succession.
Without exception, all five Soul Skills landed on Bibi Dong's original body.
Yet to his surprise, Bibi Dong was completely unharmed.
Tang Hao then noticed the new clothes Bibi Dong was wearing.
Looking at those new clothes, Tang Hao could not help recalling the Golden Ranking Opportunity Bibi Dong had obtained earlier.
His pupils abruptly contracted as he repeatedly warned Chen Xin, Gu Rong, and Yu Yuanzhen.
"Gentlemen, be careful. The clothing on Bibi Dong is no ordinary clothing. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Golden Ranking Opportunity she obtained earlier—a divine artifact! That divine artifact is most likely defensive in nature, because my physical attacks are ineffective against Bibi Dong. Let's conserve our strength and not waste too much Soul Power or stamina."
On the other battlefield in the distance, Ning Fengzhi's expression immediately changed upon hearing Tang Hao's words.
A defensive divine artifact?
One that could negate physical attacks?
This was troublesome!
Just then, a voice rang out from an extremely distant place.
"Don't panic, little brother! I'm coming to help you!!!"
Boom!
Boom! Boom!
As the voice fell, three waves of Soul Power erupted.
One belonged to a Peak Douluo.
The other two belonged to ordinary Titled Douluo.
The arrivals were Tang Xiao, the sect master of the Clear Sky Sect, along with the Clear Sky Sect's second and third elders.
