The battle for Jialing Pass reignited, and this time, it was far more brutal than any before.
After the Undead Legion appeared, everyone fought with utter disregard for their lives. These members of the Undead Legion were fanatically devoted to Bibi Dong, believing their purpose was to help her unite the world and achieve the highest position.
Initially, in terms of strength, the Heaven Dou Empire was at a significant disadvantage compared to the Spirit Empire, at least concerning the Soul Power levels of their Titled Douluo.
Even Ning Fengzhi and Lin Gong had planned to withdraw the Body Sect and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but the Spirit Empire's attack was too swift and powerful, giving them no chance to retreat.
However, the personnel of both great sects had already gathered. If things truly went south, they were prepared to evacuate, even at the risk of the entire battlefield collapsing.
After all, the strongest, Yang Xiong, wasn't present, and as he had said, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be opportunities later.
Dugu Bo, who had previously been somewhat suppressed on the battlefield, now seemed more at ease and formidable.
The Undead Legion's intelligence was relatively low, and they lacked any real tactics. Even with Bibi Dong's immense power, she couldn't control such a vast number of undead.
This allowed Dugu Bo to move through their ranks unimpeded, slaughtering ordinary soldiers on a large scale.
Especially after Dugu Bo's fierce battle with his old rival, Chrysanthemum Douluo, he discovered that his Head Soul Bone skill had a significant restraining effect on the Undead Legion, enabling him to play an even more crucial role.
Oscar, Yang Wei, Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wu, and others all displayed Titled Douluo-level combat prowess, which was one reason the battlefield hadn't completely collapsed.
However, the entire battlefield seemed to be shifting in a dire direction. The Undead Legion's greatest advantage was their fearlessness; even when injured, they recovered quickly.
Furthermore, even if ordinary enemies were killed, they could revive at an astonishing speed and quickly rejoin the Undead Legion.
Upon closer inspection, the battlefield outside Jialing Pass resembled a massive array, with black energy shrouding the entire formation. It seemed impossible for anyone to escape the array except by dying and becoming undead.
Among all the forces on both sides, only Qian Renxue could discern this array, and perhaps only she could unravel it.
Unfortunately, Qian Renxue stood blankly on the city walls of Jialing Pass, completely ignoring the battlefield outside.
Qian Renxue neither actively entered the fray nor personally attacked Heaven Dou Empire personnel. Even when Spirit Empire personnel were killed, she remained completely indifferent. Clearly, she disdained this war; her angelic righteousness prevented her from making the decision to participate in such a slaughter.
Qian Renxue stared intently at the Star Dou Great Forest, a faint smile gradually appearing on her lips: "Interesting, Tang San. I never expected you to actually become a Deity. Let's see how long it takes you to reach this battlefield."
Qian Renxue's overflowing battle intent locked onto Tang San from afar.
Tang San, who was rushing towards them, showed no weakness either. Their divine senses and battle intents clashed from a distance, like two destined enemies.
...
While the battle between the two sides was incredibly brutal, the true pinnacle of the fight was between Sword Douluo and Bibi Dong in the sky.
Although Bibi Dong no longer possessed the Rakshasa God's God Position inheritance, her ninety-ninth-level Soul Power, coupled with a terrifying Soul Ring Configuration, made her Soul Devouring Spider Emperor unprecedentedly powerful.
In contrast, Sword Douluo appeared relatively ordinary, with a typical Soul Ring Configuration of two yellow, two purple, and five black. His Soul Power was only at ninety-eighth level, a significant gap compared to Bibi Dong.
However, Sword Douluo received Ning Rongrong's full support, boosting all his attributes by one hundred percent. In a sense, he had approached the peak of what a mortal could achieve, even subtly reaching the threshold of ninety-ninth level.
Sword Douluo wielded the Seven Kill Sword, while Bibi Dong transformed into a gigantic Soul Devouring Spider Emperor. They attacked each other repeatedly, their boundless killing intent dyeing the entire sky crimson.
Whether it was Bibi Dong's Deathgod Domain or Sword Douluo's Seven Kill Domain, both were ultimate Slaughter Domains. Neither side yielded, determined to defeat the other.
Compared to him, Bibi Dong gradually began to gain the upper hand.
"Chen Xin, your offensive capabilities are excellent, especially with that girl Ning Rongrong's assistance. Unfortunately, the gap between ninety-eighth and ninety-ninth level is like a chasm. You're destined to be no match for me."
Sword Douluo gritted his teeth: "Bibi Dong, so what if you've reached ninety-ninth level? Soul Power isn't true combat power in this world, and those with lower Soul Power don't necessarily lose."
"Don't forget, just like your Spirit Empire's Qian Renxue, even if she became a Deity, she was still defeated by my disciple."
Bibi Dong let out a wild laugh: "So what? While Yang Xiong is your disciple, your opportunities were too poor. You don't even have the most basic 100,000-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone. What do you have to challenge someone beyond your level?"
"If I'm not mistaken, your disciple is probably fully equipped with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones. I truly think you, as a teacher, are too disgraceful."
Sword Douluo scoffed: "You don't need to comment on my disciple. It's you who's taught such a worthless disciple. Your Spirit Empire's Saintess is merely a Soul Saint at this point. I fear your Spirit Empire's future is bleak, with no one to succeed you."
Bibi Dong roared in anger: "How dare you! You are not to slander Nana!"
With a swing of her Soul Devouring Spider Emperor's massive chela, two incredibly terrifying energies instantly erupted. The two energies crossed, seemingly capable of tearing apart anything in the world. This was Bibi Dong's strongest single-target attack skill: Eternal Creation.
Sword Douluo didn't hesitate. His Ninth Soul Ring flashed, and two blood-red greatswords instantly appeared in the sky, splitting heaven and earth. This was Sword Douluo's Ninth Soul Skill: God Demon Two Slashes.
Moreover, in terms of power, Sword Douluo's Ninth Soul Skill was infinitely more formidable than before. While his sword qi used to be cerulean, it was now blood-red.
The gigantic Seven Kill Sword collided with the terrifying Eternal Creation. Even with Bibi Dong's strength, directly enduring Sword Douluo's Ninth Soul Skill forced her back dozens of meters.
And Sword Douluo, even after using all his strength for his Ninth Soul Skill, retreated hundreds of meters, a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
After all, there was a gap between a ten-thousand-year Soul Skill and a hundred-thousand-year Soul Skill. Sword Douluo's Ninth Soul Skill was ultimately only at the ten-thousand-year level, while Bibi Dong's Eternal Creation was a 100,000-Year Soul Ring skill. Its single-target attack capability was almost at the pinnacle for a Soul Master, and it could also ignore defenses.
Bibi Dong snorted: "Chen Xin, you're actually quite interesting. Even without having gone through the Slaughter City trial or the Hell Road, your killing intent can reach such intensity. I underestimated you a little."
Sword Douluo said: "I think you're just a frog in a well. So what if you obtained the Deathgod Domain? The Seven Kill Sword is the strongest Slaughter Martial Soul in the world, representing the purest slaughter. Even with your Deathgod Domain, you can't do anything to me."
Neither of them lingered, continuing to rapidly attack each other. Countless sword shadows instantly appeared in the sky, while the massive Soul Devouring Spider Emperor swung its huge chela, relentlessly attacking Sword Douluo.
Whether it was Sword Douluo or everyone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Body Sect, even though they were all fighting desperately, they still held back somewhat.
Up to this point, Qian Renxue merely stood on the city walls of Jialing Pass, golden light radiating from her body, illuminating the entire battlefield like a Deity.
No one could truly fight with abandon. If Qian Renxue were to genuinely intervene, probably none of the Titled Douluo present would be able to escape.
Even the strongest, Sword Douluo, had to divert a portion of his attention to observe Qian Renxue's situation, preventing him from fighting without any reservations.
...
Just as the battlefield was gradually descending into a stalemate, the entire world seemed to stir at that instant. A terrifying black aura flew in from a distance, filled with endless evil. Even the strongest experts felt a trace of fear in their hearts.
Bibi Dong glared intently at the newcomer, gritting her teeth. "Tang San, you despicable worm! You actually stole my Rakshasa God Position. I will never rest until I've settled this with you!"
But Tang San ignored Bibi Dong, instead looking at Qian Renxue on the city wall, his eyes filled with endless hatred.
"Qian Renxue, you've waited long enough. You killed my father. Today, I'll make you pay for that blood debt."
Qian Renxue immediately burst out laughing. "Tang San, that's quite an interesting thing to say. Your father, Tang Hao, was allowed to kill mine, but I'm not allowed to kill Tang Hao for revenge? Is that your Tang family's logic?"
Tang San roared, "You're full of it! Qian Xunji wasn't killed by my father. Everything you've done is just misdirected anger. You were too afraid to face Bibi Dong yourself, so you killed my father. All of this is just you trying to cover up the truth."
"Besides, your Spirit Empire has acted against all reason. Not only did you persecute the Three Great Sects back then, but now you've inexplicably started a war. You're a public enemy of the entire Soul Master world, the most evil people on earth. You're not worthy of representing angels and justice at all."
Qian Renxue's expression shifted slightly. "Tang San, your ability to twist black into white is truly remarkable. It's a shame you're only a Rakshasa God. The Rakshasa God represents darkness and evil. Do you really think you can challenge my Angel God Position with that?"
"What's more, Tang San, you're nothing but an ungrateful wretch. Don't forget, your Martial Soul was awakened with the help of my Spirit Empire, and your early cultivation was supported by my Spirit Empire. If it weren't for my Spirit Empire, you'd probably still just be a blacksmith."
"My Spirit Empire represents light and justice. Whether it's awakening Soul Masters or distributing subsidies, we contribute to the entire Soul Master world. That's infinitely stronger than the Clear Sky Sect behind you. The Clear Sky Sect, those ants, can't even compare."
Clearly, Qian Renxue had hit a nerve with Tang San. He seemed provoked. "Those are just methods your Spirit Empire uses to deceive people. You just use small favors to gather a large number of Soul Masters. It's all just your conspiracy."
