As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, Xia Bai slowly walked out.
The once perfectly smooth white round face mask is now adorned with several fine cracks.
The Radiant Douluo's gaze was fixed on Xia Bai, his eyes filled with disbelief.
His lips trembled slightly as he managed to utter a few words with difficulty: "How...how is this possible! He withstood the Second Elder's full-force attack! How can he be completely unharmed?!"
As the second elder of the Spirit Hall, Golden Crocodile Douluo's strength is not to be underestimated.
At this moment, apart from his mask being somewhat torn, Xia Bai was not injured anywhere on his body.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's feelings were extremely complicated at this moment.
Even a high-ranking elder wouldn't dare claim to have survived a full-force attack without a scratch, yet Xia Bai had done just that.
Could it be that... his strength has already surpassed that of the Grand Elder?
Golden Crocodile Douluo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He then turned to Pope Bibi Dong, his tone unusually grave: "Your Majesty, this boy's strength is terrifying. If you don't act now, I'm afraid we won't be able to defeat him today!"
Everyone present was shocked to hear Golden Crocodile Douluo's words.
When Golden Crocodile Douluo sought help from Bibi Dong, wasn't that tantamount to admitting that he was inferior to Xia Bai?
"Young Master Xia! Is your strength really that terrifying?" Dugu Bo looked at Xia Bai with a somewhat complicated expression.
He had even considered targeting Young Master Xia before, but even ten of him wouldn't be enough to defeat him.
Fortunately, I was clever enough not to be misled by Prince Xuexing and become an enemy of Young Master Xia.
Upon hearing Golden Crocodile Douluo's words, Bibi Dong slightly raised her eyelashes to look at Xia Bai.
"I'm giving you one last chance!"
"Either pledge allegiance to the Spirit Hall, or die here."
"You...choose one!"
Bibi Dong's voice carried an unparalleled air of dominance.
"Hehe, since that's the case, then I'll choose the second one!" Xia Bai's lips curled into a handsome smile.
He gently raised his right hand, his index finger pointing towards a certain spot in the void.
That was where Bibi Dong was located.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment, then a clear and authoritative command pierced the sky: "Ten Thousand Swords Technique!"
In an instant, the world changed color, as if all the light had been concentrated in that moment.
The sky was filled with golden flying swords, like awakened spirits, appearing one after another from the void.
They converged into a golden ocean, each flying sword radiating an unstoppable aura, rushing towards Bibi Dong with overwhelming force, like shooting stars chasing the moon.
This scene was breathtakingly beautiful, yet it contained a destructive power that made it too dangerous to look at directly.
Gazing at the golden light filling the sky before her, Bibi Dong's eyes were like a bottomless abyss.
"Death Spider King's Fifth Soul Skill! Thousand Edges and Ten Thousand Shields."
As Bibi Dong finished speaking, the ground suddenly trembled, and a purple vortex appeared out of thin air.
Like a gateway to hell, it exudes a suffocating aura of death.
From that vortex, countless tentacles made of the legs of the Death Spider King stretched out.
They quickly split apart, weaving into a huge purplish-black protective net that surrounded Bibi Dong, forming an indestructible barrier.
When the golden flying sword met the purplish-black protective shield, a dazzling light erupted between them.
The sound of metal colliding with magic resounded through the sky, sparks flying everywhere, like fireworks bursting, dazzling and spectacular.
But soon, everything returned to calm. Xia Bai's Ten Thousand Swords Technique ultimately failed to penetrate Bibi Dong's defense. The two were locked in a stalemate and eventually dissipated into nothingness.
Bibi Dong stood still as the purplish-black protective shield slowly melted away, a hint of admiration flashing in her eyes.
Xia Bai's attack was more powerful than that of most Title Douluos.
No wonder Qingluan Douluo couldn't withstand it and ultimately died tragically under countless flying swords.
"The Soul-Devouring Spider Queen's Second Soul Skill - Boundless Gift!" Bibi Dong's voice was as cold as a glacier.
She hovered high in the void, a long spear with a sharp edge materializing in her hand.
With a flick of his wrist, the spear shot out like an arrow, roaring as it tore through space, heading straight for Xia Bai.
Faced with this sudden and unstoppable offensive, Xia Bai remained calm.
A thought flashed through his mind: "An invisible wall!"
With this command, a transparent light barrier suddenly formed, like an indestructible screen, firmly blocking the fiercely attacking spear.
The spear struck the invisible wall with a deafening sound, but the wall remained undamaged, perfectly protecting Xia Bai's safety.
However, the battle never ends because of a temporary victory.
Just when everyone thought Xia Bai had resolved the crisis, two sharp, piercing sounds suddenly came from the sky.
Two enormous, crystal-clear jade scythes quietly appeared in the sky.
Like twin stars in the night sky, they emitted a cold green light, crossing each other and piercing the sky, releasing a huge green forked ripple.
"The first skill of the 100,000-year soul ring is Eternal Creation." Bibi Dong's voice rang out again, this time with a hint of coldness and ruthlessness.
This is one of her most domineering single-target attack methods, and its power is enough to make all Soul Masters take notice.
This skill can ignore all physical defenses. Once it touches a target, it will cause endless wounds to spread until the soul power is exhausted and life will end.
The long, narrow, green, forked ripple slash passed directly through the air wall in front of Xia Bai and struck Xia Bai's body.
"Young Master Xia!" Tang San and the others couldn't help but shout out in concern upon seeing this.
There's nothing they can do but watch a battle between such powerful individuals.
Golden Crocodile Douluo was also shocked by Bibi Dong's terrifying attack.
Unbeknownst to many, Bibi Dong has actually grown to this extent?
Bibi Dong watched the figure fall from the sky to the ground with a calm expression.
No matter how strong Xia Bai is, he is still just a minor Soul Saint!
At this moment, Xia Bai felt as if he was being tightly bound by an inexplicable force from his skin to his bones and even the depths of his soul.
It's like countless greedy insects gnawing at flesh and blood, bringing unbearable pain.
This was an torment that transcended physical torture, as if an invisible hand was constantly eroding the surging soul power within him, stripping it away bit by bit without leaving any trace.
"This skill can actually ignore any defense?" Xia Bai slowly stood up from the ground, his voice revealing a hint of surprise.
"How...how is this possible! He still has the strength to stand up after taking that blow from His Holiness the Pope!" Juhua Guan looked at the tall figure in the distance, his eyes filled with shock.
Despite that power, Xia Bai was still able to continue fighting.
What an amazing willpower!
