Chapter 8 Bibi Dong Makes the List, the Ultimate Evil Martial Soul!
Above the sky, the golden light of the ranking list did not pause in the slightest despite the uproar caused by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolving into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Amidst the flowing light, an extremely sinister aura permeated the sky.
At lightning speed, it sketched out a hideous, grotesque phantom of a giant spider covered in dark purple carapace, radiating a dense aura of death and misfortune!
The next second, a large amount of text appeared instantly on the ranking list!
[Martial Soul Ranking, 18th Place – Death Spider Emperor (Top-Tier Power Attack/Control Beast Martial Soul)]
[Evaluation: Incarnation of Death, Undying King! A combination of ultimate power and undying life, possessing terrifying physical attack power, defensive power, and despair-inducing recovery ability. Renowned for its "undying" characteristic, it is extremely powerful.]
However, the power of a martial soul is too biased towards destruction and slaughter. The holder is trapped in hatred, unable to grasp the true meaning of death, and instead consumed by its malevolent energy, easily losing their reason and obscuring their potential. Therefore, they are relegated to this position.
[Strongest Holder: Bibi Dong, Level 99 Peerless Douluo, Pope of the Spirit Hall, holder of twin martial souls, inheritor of the Rakshasa God's Trial!]
[Most Talented: Bibi Dong. (Because she is also the strongest and most talented holder of this martial soul, the reward is doubled.)]
[Received Bonus Rewards: All Soul Rings' age increased by 30,000 years! 30,000-year external soul bone—'Death Spider Emperor's Soul-Devouring Eight Spears'!]
Spirit Hall, Pope's Hall.
When she saw the words "Heavenly Dao favors destruction," "deeply entangled in hatred," "unable to grasp the true meaning of death," and "consumed by malevolent energy" used to describe her, Bibi Dong's face instantly turned ashen.
In an instant, an extremely terrifying killing intent spread uncontrollably, and the temperature in the entire Papal Palace plummeted!
"Insolence!"
Just a few comments were enough to break Bibi Dong's defenses, and she couldn't suppress her anger.
How dare the Heavenly Dao judge her actions and thoughts in such a way? It was simply outrageous!
However, when the generous rewards were presented one by one, Bibi Dong's anger was instantly replaced by immense joy!
All her spirit rings had their age increased by 30,000 years?
Her spirit ring configuration was already extremely high, and with this upgrade, her strength would surely skyrocket!
Moreover, she also had an incomparably precious external spirit bone!
"Hmph, although I didn't make it into the top ten, ranking eighteenth, at least the Heavenly Dao has acknowledged the extraordinary nature of my martial soul!"
Bibi Dong's lips curled up slightly, her expression changing faster than flipping through a book! Before she finished speaking, an incredibly thick, murderous, purplish-black beam of light crashed down, completely enveloping her!
"Buzz—!"
Behind Bibi Dong, the ferocious phantom of the Death Spider King roared to the sky, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, black, red!
Nine spirit rings, exceeding the proportions of ordinary beings, suddenly appeared, one of which, a blood-red 100,000-year spirit ring, was particularly dazzling!
A massive surge of Heavenly Dao energy poured in, and she clearly felt that the power of all her spirit rings instantly surged, their colors becoming even deeper!
More importantly, a tearing pain and numbness came from her back, and eight purplish-black bone spikes, covered with strange patterns and with tips flashing with a soul-devouring cold light, burst out of her body, swaying slowly behind her like living things!
"Hahaha! Excellent! My spirit ring's age has increased by 30,000 years, and I also have an external spirit bone!"
Bibi Dong felt the surging power within her body and the eight death bone spears on her back that seemed to wield her arms like fingers. She couldn't help but let out a hearty and cold laugh.
"With this reward, my Death Spider Emperor spirit is one step closer to completely mastering the power of death!"
Her gaze swept across the sky outside the hall, as if she could see the shocked beings through the heavens. Her tone was full of arrogance:
"Do you see? This is my true power! The glory of the Spirit Hall will surely cover the entire continent!"
Below the steps, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan shrieked, "Congratulations, Your Holiness the Pope! Congratulations, Your Holiness the Pope! Your divine might is unparalleled in the world!"
Ghost Douluo Gui Mei echoed in a hoarse voice, "The Death Spider Emperor has such potential. Your Holiness the Pope is truly destined by heaven!"
All the elders of the Spirit Hall knelt down and shouted "Long live the Pope!" Their faces were filled with awe and fanaticism.
The stronger the Pope, the more secure the Spirit Hall's hegemony becomes!
The Hall of Offerings.
Qian Daoliu quietly gazed at the sky, his brow furrowing almost imperceptibly.
"This woman, Bibi Dong, possesses both considerable fortune and ambition," he muttered to himself, his tone unreadable, but a hint of seriousness flashed deep in his eyes.
Bibi Dong's rate of strength improvement had somewhat exceeded his expectations.
Golden Crocodile Douluo sneered, "Evil spirits are ultimately unorthodox paths! How can they compare to the glory of the Angel God!"
Despite his words, his clenched fists revealed his inner turmoil.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Fengzhi looked at the ferocious Spider Emperor phantom on the sky and Bibi Dong's arrogant demeanor, his expression extremely grave.
"This reward is truly beyond expectations! The spirit ring's age has increased by 30,000 years, and there's even an external spirit bone!"
He took a deep breath and looked at Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo beside him. "Bibi Dong's strength is becoming increasingly unfathomable, and she possesses the legendary twin martial souls. Her other martial soul will likely also be listed on the Golden Ranking!"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin's gaze sharpened: "This martial soul is evil and domineering. If we clash with the Spirit Hall in the future, Bibi Dong will be a major threat to us."
Bone Douluo Gu Rong spat: "Pah! Just a stinking spider! My Bone Dragon is tougher than hers. Once I get the Golden Ranking reward, and join forces with Old Sword Man, we might not be afraid of her alone!"
Shrek Academy.
Yu Xiaogang looked at the sky, his body trembling slightly. He was both shocked by the power and strangeness of the Death Spider Queen and filled with complex emotions towards Bibi Dong, the object of his former love and now fear.
"The Death Spider Queen... twin martial souls... she actually went this far..." he murmured to himself, his face pale.
Honkai Academy, Dean's Office Terrace.
Vice Dean Theresa, looking at the ferocious Death Spider King in the sky and the domineering Bibi Dong, clicked her tongue slightly and said:
"Wow, that old woman's martial soul looks so fierce! Dean, can our martial souls compare to hers?"
Fu Hua pondered for a moment before calmly analyzing, "Judging from the power and evaluation displayed on the Golden Ranking alone, the Death Spider Queen is indeed a top-tier beast martial soul, especially with its extremely rare 'immortality' characteristic. However, the strength of a martial soul isn't absolute; the user is more crucial."
Rita elegantly refilled Zhang Yi's tea, smiling slightly, "This female pope's demeanor is indeed extraordinary, but I have more faith in Dean's judgment and the strength of our academy."
Zhang Yi sipped his tea, a faint smile playing on his lips, "You don't need to underestimate yourselves. Aren't you all top-tier powerhouses in the Collapsed World? Your innate martial souls, in terms of both potential and quality, far surpass this Death Spider Queen. I have absolute confidence in you."
Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Theresa immediately puffed out her chest, "That's right! My Judah Armor is very powerful! Not only can I transform, but I can also smash people!"
