Looking at the three peerless powerhouses before her, each like a deity, Bibi Dong felt a bucket of ice water douse the ambition that had swelled after her breakthrough, bringing her back to her senses.
She had just broken through to become a level 99 Peerless Douluo and possessed the semi-divine artifacts, the Eight Spider Lances and the Demon Scythe, but she was not foolish.
A level 99 Ye Wuchen wielding a Super Divine Artifact, the Snow Empress, Ruler of the Far North, with 950,000 years of cultivation, and an unfathomable silver-haired woman-fighting them head-on would mean certain death.
I'll count today as bad luck. There are plenty of days ahead. Bibi Dong inwardly gritted her teeth and forcibly suppressed the killing intent in her heart.
Without a word, she reined in the Soul Power around her. The Eight Spider Lances behind her exerted their strength as she prepared to tear through space, turn, and flee.
A cool voice filled with authority rang out.
"You slaughtered so many high-ranking Soul Beasts at will in my Star Dou Great Forest and sucked their essence dry, and now you want to dust off your backside and leave? What do you take my Star Dou Great Forest for? Your back garden?"
The speaker was none other than Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena.
A trace of killing intent flashed through her violet eyes as she forcibly cut off Bibi Dong's retreat.
"Gu Yuena, let me deal with her."
Having just received Gu Yuena's "funding," Ye Wuchen had grown considerably stronger, and his hands itched unbearably for a fight.
The Super Divine Artifact in his hand-the Eternal Abyss Sword of Perpetual Silence-gave a clear ring.
As Ye Wuchen moved, a bone-piercing chill that seemed capable of freezing souls erupted.
Behind him, a phantom Heavenly Snow Woman of unparalleled grace rose from the ground, like a deity of ice and snow.
Immediately afterward, nine dazzling Soul Rings rose from beneath his feet.
Yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, red, red, blue-gold!
A Million-Year Soul Ring!
"If I can't leave, then I'll fight!" Bibi Dong was a formidable figure in her own right. Knowing there could be no peaceful resolution today, she immediately let out a piercing shriek.
Without hesitation, she released her First Martial Soul-the Death Spider Emperor.
A gigantic, hideous purple-black spider phantom appeared behind her, and nine Soul Rings of an optimal configuration rose: two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red.
"Martial Soul Avatar!"
The two unleashed their Martial Soul Avatars almost simultaneously.
Ye Wuchen transformed into an Ice and Snow Sovereign who commanded extreme cold, while Bibi Dong became a terrifying half-human, half-spider demon spider that radiated a dense aura of death.
"Ice God Domain!"
Ye Wuchen made no probing attacks, directly activating the Soul Skill granted by his Million-Year Soul Ring.
In an instant, the space within a radius of several thousand meters became an absolute kingdom of ice and snow.
Within this domain, all other elements were forcibly expelled, leaving only ultimate cold.
Bibi Dong felt her entire body stiffen. The circulation of Soul Power within her plummeted, and even the Eight Spider Lances behind her were coated in thick frost.
"Cleave!"
Ye Wuchen's gaze was icy as the Eternal Abyss Sword of Perpetual Silence traced an arc through the void.
A streak of ultimate ice-blue sword energy, a thousand feet long, seemed poised to split heaven and earth apart.
Bibi Dong paled in alarm and hurriedly swung the Evil Spider Demon Scythe in her hand, crossing the Eight Spider Lances behind her in front of herself at the same time.
Clang-!
How could a Semi-Divine Artifact possibly withstand the edge of a Super Divine Artifact?
In just one exchange, the Evil Spider Demon Scythe in Bibi Dong's hand was shaken until its light dimmed. She was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of purple-black blood.
Both were Peerless Douluos who had only just reached level 99.
Bibi Dong possessed Twin Martial Souls and the foundation of a full seventeen Soul Rings.
But Ye Wuchen's foundation was even more monstrous than hers!
His yin-yang complementary dual soul cores supplied him with an unending stream of Soul Power, while his god-level spiritual power allowed him to control the battle with exquisite precision.
Not to mention that he held a Super Divine Artifact capable of slaying gods!
"Emperor Sword: Ice Extreme Peerless!"
Ye Wuchen left trails of afterimages in midair as he closed in.
He perfectly fused the supreme technique taught by the Snow Empress with the Super Divine Artifact in his hand.
As this sword thrust out, heaven and earth lost their color, and all things fell into silent annihilation.
Facing this unavoidable sword strike, Bibi Dong's eyes went wild, and she immediately activated the life-saving divine skill of her ninth Soul Ring-Immortal Body!
The Ice and Snow Storm swallowed Bibi Dong completely.
When the storm dispersed, Bibi Dong's shattered body painstakingly reassembled under the laws of Immortal Body.
Although she had saved her life, her aura had weakened drastically and her face was deathly pale. She had clearly suffered severe internal injuries.
"Kill!" Bibi Dong descended into madness, brandishing the Eight Spider Lances and the Demon Scythe as she engaged Ye Wuchen in a desperate battle to the death in midair.
Purple-black Rakshasa divine power and ultimate ice-and-snow sword energy wildly interwove and collided in the sky.
After dozens of exchanges, Bibi Dong's disadvantage grew increasingly apparent.
To her horror, she discovered that the chill of Ye Wuchen's Ultimate Ice was invading her body like a festering sore clinging to the bone.
The frost covering her thickened, and even her blood began to congeal. Ordinary Soul Power could barely melt it away anymore.
In other words, if the fight continued like this, Ye Wuchen would not need any killing move. The constantly accumulating ultimate chill alone could freeze her into a lifeless ice sculpture.
"Damn it!"
Bibi Dong bit the tip of her tongue and forcibly activated the most precious Rakshasa divine power within her.
An utterly evil purple-black flame rose. She finally dispelled all the ice and snow covering her, and under the nourishment of the divine power, most of her wounds healed as well.
But she knew this was merely drinking poison to quench her thirst.
Only by using this final trump card would she have a chance to wrest a sliver of survival from Ye Wuchen's hands.
"Ye Wuchen!" Panting heavily, Bibi Dong stared at the young man in midair, who looked like an immortal banished to the mortal world, and shouted coldly:
"There has never been any grievance or enmity between us. If we truly fight to the death, even if you can kill me, I can use Rakshasa divine power to drag you down with me. That benefits neither of us. Why don't we call it quits for today?"
Bibi Dong used her words to hold Ye Wuchen at bay while searching for a chance to escape.
Before Ye Wuchen could speak, the Snow Empress, standing behind him, let out a cold laugh.
"Who said Wuchen had to fight you to the death?" The Snow Empress stepped forward, her 950,000 years of cultivation bearing down on Bibi Dong's shoulders. "Do you take me for someone who doesn't exist?"
Bibi Dong was speechless, her expression turning as ugly as could be.
Indeed, Ye Wuchen alone had already forced her to reveal every trump card and left her facing one peril after another.
If this Ruler of the Far North with 950,000 years of cultivation intervened as well, would she, the Rakshasa God Successor, truly meet such an ignominious end in the Star Dou Great Forest today?
Just as swords were drawn and Bibi Dong found herself cornered with no way out.
The Firmament stretching across the sky seemed to feel that this spectacle was not exciting enough.
It took the initiative to add fuel to their battle, making the flames burn even more fiercely.
On the Firmament, the scene changed, and a piece of Bibi Dong's "unreleased footage" began to play.
Bibi Dong sat high above on Spirit Hall's Papal Throne, her eyes filled with greed and ambition.
"The Snow Empress of the Far North has as much as seven hundred thousand years of cultivation. I will personally travel to the Far North and hunt her down! Her Soul Ring and Soul Bone will become stepping stones on my path to godhood."
The moment this footage appeared, Bibi Dong in the Star Dou Great Forest was trapped in a dead end.
