Chapter 244: Tang Chuan Severely Injured and on the Verge of Death? Di Tian Saves the Day!
"Buzz!"
As the words fell, Bibi Dong's arms transformed drastically, instantly becoming two enormous black scythes, shrouded in dense death energy, their blades gleaming with a soul-tearing light!
The next second, the scythes crossed, then, carrying the power of the law of reaping life, without dodging or avoiding, precisely slashed at the tip of the Golden Dragon Spear!
"Clang—!!!!!"
This collision was no longer an explosion of energy, but a clash of extreme sharpness and absolute power! The ear-piercing metallic clang almost tore off eardrums!
However, the stalemate lasted only a moment!
"Pfft—!"
The golden giant's massive body shuddered violently, as if struck by an invisible blow, its golden body flashing intensely and erratically.
Finally, it uncontrollably spat out a large mouthful of golden blood!
The difference in strength was now undeniably revealed!
Even with the full amplification of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and even with Tang Chuan and his companion using a powerful Martial Soul Fusion Technique to temporarily elevate their strength to the level of a Title Douluo, they still appeared far too inexperienced against Bibi Dong, who was already at the peak of level 98, possessed twin Martial Souls, complete Soul Bones, and incredibly rich combat experience!
The power emanating from Bibi Dong's Death Scythe was an irresistible force, like a landslide or a tsunami, along with a deathly aura capable of corroding the soul!
At this moment, the Golden Dragon Spear was firmly suppressed by the Death Scythe, and the light surrounding the golden giant was visibly dimming.
Defeat seemed imminent?!
Just as the golden giant coughed up blood, its golden light dissipated, and it was on the verge of complete collapse under Bibi Dong's Death Scythe...
"Roar—!"
"You filthy woman, if he dies, who's going to give me money to buy bones?"
"Take this!"
With the roar subsiding, a blood-red figure, brimming with violence and destruction, appeared behind Bibi Dong without warning, as if teleporting—it was the ferocious beast, the Crimson King!
Immediately afterward, its enormous claws, covered in dark red scales, carrying terrifying power capable of tearing through space, slammed down on Bibi Dong's back with a simple, powerful blow!
Even before the claw's wind arrived, the sheer physical force and oppressive aura distorted the space behind Bibi Dong!
"What?!"
"I never expected you, you beast, to have been watching until now before making your move."
Sensing the terrifying attack from behind that threatened her life, Bibi Dong's usually icy expression shifted slightly. She hadn't expected this beast to have concealed itself so well, launching a fatal sneak attack at this crucial moment!
Now, she was caught between a stalemate with the Golden Dragon Spear in front and the Crimson King's deadly strike from behind. She seemed to be in an unprecedentedly perilous situation!
However, in that split second, Bibi Dong displayed her terrifying adaptability as the Pope of the Spirit Hall and a peak Douluo.
The eighth black ten-thousand-year spirit ring beneath her feet instantly lit up!
"Eighth Spirit Skill, Spider Emperor Clone!"
A flash of purplish-black light appeared on her body, and a clone identical to Bibi Dong's true form as the Death Spider Emperor instantly separated from her!
This was Bibi Dong's eighth spirit skill, Spider Emperor Clone. Spider Emperor Clone effect: Creates a clone using a spirit skill, possessing 100% of the original's power, but lacking intelligence and requiring control.
This 100% power isn't just physical; it also includes the spirit skill. Of course, this only applies to the first seven spirit skills, not the eighth and ninth.
This clone also possessed immense power and aura.
The moment it appeared, it ruthlessly turned, its eight spider legs embracing, condensing a vast aura of death, like a shield, forcefully meeting the Crimson King's world-destroying giant claw!
"BOOM—!!!"
The collision between the clone and the Crimson King's giant claw triggered an even more earth-shattering explosion than before!
The violent energy turbulence blasted a huge crater in the ground.
Taking advantage of the clone's moment of retaliation, Bibi Dong's main body suddenly unleashed a stronger death aura from the Death Scythe, her entire body surging with power.
With a loud clang, she actually sent the already injured golden giant flying dozens of meters away, spear and all, temporarily breaking the stalemate.
In this brief respite, the purplish-black light on Bibi Dong's body rapidly shifted and changed!
Her ugly, enormous Death Spider Queen true form vanished like a phantom in a mere second, replaced by an even more bizarre, condensed, dark green spider phantom radiating a soul-devouring aura.
This was her second martial soul—the Soul-Devouring Spider Queen!
In the blink of an eye, she had completed the instantaneous switch between her twin martial souls!
"It's over, kid!"
"Sixth Soul Skill, Eternal Creation!"
As the switch was completed, a cold smile crept onto Bibi Dong's lips. Simultaneously, the crimson, blood-red, 100,000-year sixth soul ring beneath her feet lit up.
Bibi Dong simultaneously raised her two emerald-like giant scythes, then slashed out with a massive, intersecting green fork-shaped wave of light towards the defeated golden giant.
Instantly, a dark green energy blade, seemingly formed from the purest resentment of death, silently tore through space. Its speed surpassed visual perception, carrying a terrifying power that ignored physical defense and directly affected the very essence of life, slashing fiercely towards its target!
This was one of Bibi Dong's most domineering single-target attack abilities, Eternal Creation!
Physical defense was ineffective, energy defense was reduced by fifty percent, and once hit, the wound would spread endlessly, relying solely on soul power to resist until it was completely exhausted, leading to death. Those struck by this attack would find their wounds unable to heal, their life force continuously draining away until death!
Gazing at the dark green energy blade—Eternal Wound—that tore through space and hurtled towards them with an aura of annihilation, Tang Chuan's pupils suddenly contracted to their limit!
"Damn it, it seems we can't dodge this attack?"
"We simply can't withstand it head-on, and it's very likely we'll both be severely injured."
In his perception, the power of the law of death contained in this attack far exceeded his imagination; even if he and Xiao Ruier maintained their Martial Soul Fusion Technique at this moment, they absolutely couldn't withstand it!
If they try to take the hit head-on, the fusion technique will inevitably be forcibly broken up, and both of them will suffer severe injuries. They may even die from the direct erosion of their life essence by the curse power of the Eternal Wound!
To dodge?
He might be able to evade by teleporting after dispelling his Martial Soul Fusion Technique.
But what about Xiao Ruier?
In a flash, an incredibly crazy, yet the only chance of survival in this desperate situation, idea flashed through Tang Chuan's mind!
"Damn it, Bibi Dong, I'll fight you to the death!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Tang Chuan's mind moved, and the massive golden giant instantly disintegrated, its golden light rapidly dissipating, reforming into the figures of Tang Chuan and Xiao Ruier.
At this moment, Xiao Ruier's face was pale, her soul power greatly depleted, and she could barely stand.
The instant Tang Chuan's figure appeared, he flashed without hesitation. Not only did he not retreat, but he actively charged towards the oncoming energy blade of Eternal Wound!
At this moment, his eyes flashed with resolute light, and the crimson, blood-red, 100,000-year sixth soul ring beneath his feet suddenly lit up!
At the same time, a strong red light erupted from his right arm!
"Sixth Soul Skill, Void!"
"Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone Skill, Invincible Golden Body!"
Two life-saving divine skills from a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone were activated simultaneously!
In an instant, Tang Chuan's entire body transformed into a dazzling golden figure, as if cast from pure gold, like the most solid barrier in the world! Invincible Golden Body, activated!
"Boom!!!"
The next second.
The dark green Eternal Creation energy blade slammed into the golden figure!
Instantly, a piercing sound of energy friction rang out, and sparks flew wildly!
That emerald green energy blade, capable of ignoring defense and eroding one's very essence, was actually temporarily blocked by the absolute defense of the Invincible Golden Body!
However, how terrifying was Bibi Dong's ten-thousand-year soul skill, Eternal Creation?
The absolute defense of the Invincible Golden Body could only last for three seconds!
After three seconds, the golden light suddenly dimmed, and the golden body shattered!
At the very moment the golden body shattered, Tang Chuan's body suddenly became transparent and ethereal, as if becoming a red ghost without substance!
"Ten Thousand Year Soul Skill—Void, activated!"
The next second, the dark green energy blade, now unobstructed, pierced straight through Tang Chuan's already ethereal body!
"Pfft—!"
Despite being immune to physical attacks and energy impacts thanks to Void, a portion of the extreme death aura and soul-level curse power accompanying the Eternal Wound still penetrated the ethereal barrier, slamming heavily into Tang Chuan's body and soul!
Struck as if by lightning, Tang Chuan's ethereal body instantly solidified, his face ashen, and a mouthful of blood mixed with fragments of internal organs gushed out, drawing a gruesome line in the air.
Immediately afterward, the light in his eyes rapidly dimmed, and he plummeted from the sky like a puppet with its strings cut, crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
At this moment, he had completely lost consciousness, his fate unknown!
"Tang Chuan!!!"
Behind him, Xiao Ruier's heart-wrenching cry rang out.
Xiao Ruier hadn't expected that Tang Chuan would use himself as a shield to protect her.
Then, through the skillful combination of two divine techniques, she managed to withstand Bibi Dong's deadly attack, but the price was devastating!
Watching Tang Chuan spit out blood mixed with fragments of internal organs, Xiao Ruier felt as if her heart had been crushed and stopped beating.
Her once brilliant golden eyes were now covered in blood, tears mingling with overwhelming hatred.
Immediately, disregarding her own exhaustion and danger, Xiao Ruier transformed into a golden streak of light, rushing to Tang Chuan's side, using her slender yet resolute body to shield him from Bibi Dong.
"If you want to kill him, you'll have to step over my dead body!" She gripped the Golden Dragon Spear tightly, its tip trembling as it pointed at Bibi Dong. Although her soul power was nearly exhausted, and her body trembled slightly from extreme grief and rage, she showed no fear.
"What a pair of doomed lovers!"
Watching Xiao Ruier's moth-to-a-flame act, Bibi Dong's lips curled into a cold, cruel smile. The phantom of the Soul-Devouring Spider King swayed behind her as she sneered.
"Since you're so eager to die," she said,
"then I'll grant your wish. Go and join him."
With that, she slowly raised her hand, and dark purple soul power began to gather once more.
For Xiao Ruier, already exhausted and mentally unstable, Bibi Dong believed a single, casual strike would be enough to obliterate her.
However, just as the energy at her fingertips was about to erupt—
"Boom—!!!"
Without warning, the world changed color abruptly!
The once clear sky was instantly covered by endless, thick, dark clouds, the churning clouds like an inverted ink cannon, suffocating everyone!
Streaks of pale white lightning, like wildly dancing silver snakes, darted madly through the clouds, illuminating the dim earth with flickering light!
A deafening rumble of thunder rolled in, as if an ancient behemoth roared above the clouds!
This was not a natural weather change; within the dark clouds lay an ancient, majestic, and terrifying dragon's might, surpassing all living beings and filled with an extreme sense of oppression!
This pressure far exceeded that of the Crimson King, even causing Bibi Dong to feel a chill run down her spine!
Gazing at the scene before her, Bibi Dong's gathering of soul power abruptly halted. She abruptly looked up, her expression filled with astonishment and disbelief as she stared at the lightning-streaked sky that seemed about to collapse. Her face became incredibly solemn for the first time, even tinged with disbelief. She exclaimed,
"This is…?!"
Under the gaze of countless horrified eyes, from the deepest part of the churning dark clouds, an unimaginably enormous black dragon's head slowly emerged.
Its dragon eyes, burning with golden flames, were like two enormous stars, coldly overlooking the insignificant beings below.
