"Eighth Soul Skill, Spider Emperor Clone!"
"Sixth Soul Skill, Wound of Eternity!"
This was awkward.
Bibi Dong realized that her first Martial Soul, Death Spider Emperor, only had its eighth Soul Skill as a usable attack skill, capable of creating clones with 100% of her original power, but without the eighth and ninth Soul Skills!
And only the sixth Soul Skill, Wound of Eternity, of her second Martial Soul, Soul Devouring Demonic Spider, was a long-range attack!
Everything else was either a shield or a recovery skill!
Even if the ninth Soul Skill, Undying Body, was overpowered, it was useless at this moment!
(The second Martial Soul's ninth Soul Skill was a super strong long-range attack, but she hadn't acquired it yet.)
Fortunately, although Bibi Dong's Wound of Eternity was a sixth Soul Ring, it was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, making its effect extremely powerful! It could ignore physical defense, reduce energy defense by fifty percent, and cause the wound to continually spread until the target's Soul Power was depleted!
This Soul Skill could also be considered a Divine Skill!
However, it was also a bleeding Soul Skill, like cutting meat with a dull knife!
Bibi Dong: "..."
She could only pray that these Soul Skills would at least heavily injure the Crimson King!
The stronger the target immobilized by the Yin-Yang Stillness Domain, the shorter its duration. Also, the number of people immobilized within the range affected the duration.
The Crimson King was a 200,000-year-old Ferocious Beast, not to mention that before even making a move, he had summoned a large number of Three-Headed Hellhounds!
It was already quite difficult for Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to immobilize the Crimson King for an instant.
Therefore, including Bibi Dong, there was only one chance to unleash Soul Skills!
However, she made two fatal mistakes in the process!
First, she hadn't considered the lineup beforehand, or rather, she tried to instantly kill someone with the Yin-Yang Stillness Domain for the first time, only to realize that her side had no effective long-range ultimate skills!
Second, although Bibi Dong's Wound of Eternity was a bleeding skill, and its instant-kill capability was mediocre, it was still a Divine Skill. Yet, she didn't use her Martial Soul True Body!
All the Titled Douluo present had used their Martial Soul True Body!
Only Bibi Dong had never used either of her two Martial Soul True Bodies.
This significantly reduced the effectiveness of her already powerful Soul Skills!
As for why Bibi Dong refused to use her Martial Soul True Body?
It wasn't that Bibi Dong forgot!
It was that she simply didn't want to use it!
Even when facing a formidable enemy like Tang Hao, who had amplified his power by using his Clear Sky True Body, Bibi Dong remained reserved, ultimately letting Tang Hao escape multiple times!
Perhaps even the members of Spirit Hall couldn't have imagined that in every operation within the hall, the one who slacked off the most was none other than their Pope!
Was Bibi Dong strong?
The answer was very strong.
In the original work, as a newly ascended first-rank god, Bibi Dong could suppress Tang San and Qian Renxue.
Why was her performance so mediocre before becoming a god?
And why was she repeatedly humiliated by Tang Hao?
The answer lies here!
Bibi Dong's Martial Soul True Body was too ugly, and as the Pope, Bibi Dong was accustomed to receiving gazes of respect and admiration.
She was the noble Pope, the faith in the hearts of countless Soul Masters, and she had ardent fans as Pope. How many people were impressed by her usual demeanor and grace?
How could she be willing to display her ugly side!
It's just a spider, how ugly could it be? One must remember that in Lin Xiao's previous life, there were many people with peculiar fetishes who enjoyed cosplaying beautiful women as spider demons.
But Bibi Dong's Martial Soul True Body was not like the Fourth Sister in Black Myth.
For details, refer to the original description. To summarize:
Its appearance was a human-faced spider body, a half-human, half-spider monster with twisted, extremely ugly features and thick spider legs dripping with green viscous fluid.
It carried a terrifying aura, glowing red against a purplish-black background, and its enormous purple spider form was chilling.
Bibi Dong's Martial Soul True Body could be described with the following words:
Strange, twisted, ugly, evil, filthy...
Therefore, Bibi Dong would absolutely not use her Martial Soul True Body unless it was a last resort. Compared to others whose Soul Skills gained a double amplification when using their Martial Soul True Body, Bibi Dong was effectively weakened by half for no reason.
To still be able to fight after being nerfed like that, Bibi Dong definitely had some tricks up her sleeve.
In addition to the aforementioned reasons, there were also psychological factors:
Bibi Dong detested her own Martial Soul True Body and resisted using it.
What's more!
This place was under the scrutiny of many, a mixed bag of people. If she were to reveal her perfect female Pope persona, it would surely crumble on the spot. Would her image in everyone's eyes still be associated with the Pope?
Once she unleashed her Martial Soul True Body, twenty years of PR and promotion would have been for naught!
So...
When Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, pale-faced, released the Yin-Yang Stillness Domain, they looked at the Three-Headed Crimson Demonic Mastiff in the distance, lively and seemingly even stronger due to its battlelust being stimulated by its minor injuries. Both their little heads were buzzing.
Oh, come on, sis, are you serious?
When people are utterly speechless, even with their mouths agape, they can't utter a word.
Bibi Dong: "..."
Her chest heaved violently, clearly infuriated. She glared fiercely at Kite Douluo and Ghost Leopard Douluo, then roared:
"The plan has changed, go all in!"
The Gem Scepter in Bibi Dong's hand seemed to be a peculiar Soul Tool, capable of serving as a medium for casting Soul Skills. The dignified and noble female Pope stood in mid-air, and even with her fierce attacks, she moved with an elegance that was pleasing to the eye...
But what good was that?!
While Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, Kite Douluo, and Ghost Leopard Douluo were all unleashing their Martial Soul True Bodies and fighting desperately, Bibi Dong was still slacking off!
Elegant? They were about to be beaten black and blue!
Even Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, both Super Douluo, were no match for the Three-Headed Crimson Demonic Mastiff. One-on-one, they couldn't even defeat the Sky Azure Bull Python or the Titan Giant Ape!
Just the Three-Headed Hellhounds summoned by the Three-Headed Crimson Demonic Mastiff were enough to give them a hard time!
Moreover, the Three-Headed Crimson Demonic Mastiff possessed a powerful physical body and strong dark and fire attributes, which countered the three Titled Douluo present.
However, with strength in numbers, Spirit Hall gradually gained the upper hand.
Yet, they couldn't finish it off!
The Three-Headed Crimson Demonic Mastiff's "Blazing Fire Regeneration" skill had an extremely strong recovery effect, allowing it to wear down the five Titled Douluo from Spirit Hall. The situation quickly reached a stalemate.
"Zi Ji! Aren't you coming out yet?"
The Crimson King, infuriated by being ganged up on, suddenly barked discontentedly at the sky.
The dog kept barking.
Above the sky, a slender, dark purple dragon shadow lazily flew over.
The situation instantly shifted.
The balance was broken.
Bibi Dong's expression changed drastically. Her gaze was dark as she said bitterly:
"You four, go deal with that demonic dragon!"
Yue Guan said with some concern:
"Your Excellency, this Three-Headed Crimson Demonic Mastiff..."
"Go quickly!"
Bibi Dong's voice was beyond doubt.
She possessed the heaven-defying bug Soul Skill, Undying Body. Even if she wasn't an opponent's equal, she wouldn't be defeated. At most... she'd just be a bit disheveled...
As the four Titled Douluo departed, the Crimson King's eyes grew even more ferocious and malevolent.
This annoying woman isn't even using her Martial Soul True Body.
So pretentious?
...
Lin Xiao simultaneously activated his Pupil Technique Domain and Spiritual Detection.
While assisting Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo in their fierce battle against Xiong Jun, he also closely monitored the other ongoing situation.
Suddenly, Lin Xiao frowned.
"Zi Ji is here too?"
He then looked astonished.
In his perception, was the one being chased and bitten by the dog Bibi Dong?
Lin Xiao: ?
Good luck with your college entrance exams! You will definitely succeed! And remember to be happy every day~
