Chapter 264: Hu Liena Goes to the City of Slaughter
Anna nodded slightly, then released her Ink Jade Divine Grass Spirit. Her first spirit ring flashed instantly.
"First Spirit Skill: Bloodthirsty Entanglement!"
As soon as she finished speaking, thousands of jet-black Ink Jade Divine Grasses tightly wrapped around the Blue Silver Emperor, frantically absorbing its essence. As the Blue Silver Emperor's essence was gradually absorbed by the Ink Jade Divine Grass, the Blue Silver Emperor withered away.
At the same time, the Ink Jade Divine Grass became increasingly resilient, and its quality gradually improved.
If the Blue Silver Emperor Spirit was the king of plant Spirits, then the Ink Jade Divine Grass was now constantly challenging its throne.
And one day, Anna's Ink Jade Divine Grass would become the true number one plant-type Spirit in the world. After absorbing almost all of the Blue Silver Emperor's essence, Dai Weis retrieved the nearly withered Blue Silver Emperor into his Soul Guidance Ring, then took Anna back to the Crown Prince's Mansion, where he lived a carefree life with Zhu Zhuyun and Tang Yuehua.
Meanwhile, in Spirit City, atop the Papal Palace, Bibi Dong glared angrily at the ruins of the once-thriving city.
The war was over, a war instigated by the Spirit Hall, which had ultimately ended in its defeat.
Indeed, the Spirit Hall had lost, defeated by the alliance of the Star Luo Empire and the Clear Sky Sect.
Although the war had severely damaged the Clear Sky Sect, killing its Fifth and Sixth Elders, crippling Tang Xiao, and reducing its disciples to less than five hundred, the Spirit Hall's losses were far greater. The Clear Sky Sect lost three Title Douluos, while the Spirit Hall lost five: She Long, Ci Xue, and the Ninth Elder were dead, and Ghost Leopard Douluo and Spirit Kite Douluo were captured. Given this, Bibi Dong knew it was impossible for the Star Luo Empire to release them. Unless the Spirit Hall offered another ten-thousand-year-old soul bone to the Star Luo Empire, how many ten-thousand-year-old soul bones did the Spirit Hall possess?
Not only did they lose five Title Douluos, but the elite troops in Spirit City were also almost wiped out by the Star Luo Empire's bombardment.
Fortunately, Qian Daoliu and several elders of the Hall of Priest transferred some Spirit Masters from the Spirit Branch Halls across the continent to replenish the population lost in Spirit City; otherwise, the vast Spirit City would have become a ghost town.
Watching those Spirit Masters working hard to repair Spirit City, Bibi Dong sighed helplessly, muttering to herself, "The Star Luo Empire's overall strength is getting stronger and stronger, and there are more and more people in the Spirit Hall who are dissatisfied with me. What should I do next?"
In the Papal Palace, Hu Liena looked at her exhausted teacher with a pained expression. If she could, she really wanted to tell Bibi Dong: You still have me. I will definitely stand firmly on your side.
But she also knew very well that with her current strength, she was not qualified to help Bibi Dong solve her problems.
Now that her brother Xie Yue and the sycophant Yan had both gone to Death Valley for training, a resolute glint appeared in Hu Liena's eyes. She steeled herself, knelt on one knee, and said, "Teacher, I have a request, and I hope you will grant it!"
"Speak," Bibi Dong replied.
"Teacher, I wish to ask you to take me to the City of Slaughter."
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong was immediately startled, her eyes wide with shock. She quickly turned to look at Hu Liena, exclaiming, "Nana, what did you say?"
"Teacher, I want to help you, to share your burdens. But I also know that without absolute strength, I cannot help you. Therefore, I want to go to the City of Slaughter to obtain the God of Slaughter Domain!"
Knowing that Hu Liena was doing this for her sake, a gentle smile appeared on Bibi Dong's usually icy face. Although nominally teacher and student, to outsiders they seemed more like mother and daughter.
"Good child, I appreciate your kindness, but the City of Slaughter is too dangerous. I... I'm worried about you…"
"Teacher! I am your student. Since you were able to get through the City of Slaughter, I believe I can too!"
After a pause, Hu Liena added, "Moreover, my Spirit Hall has suffered heavy losses. Only by having even greater strength can we continue to deter those with ill intentions."
"For my teacher, and for the Spirit Hall, I am willing to give everything to go to the City of Slaughter. I will die trying!"
Hu Liena's gaze was resolute, displaying a fierce, death-defying spirit that inspired Bibi Dong.
"Alright! Since that's the case, then I'll trust you this once!" With that, Bibi Dong took out a white soul bone and handed it to Hu Liena, saying, "After absorbing this soul bone, go find Elder Yue and Elder Gui. They will take you to the City of Slaughter."
Looking at the snow-white head soul bone, Hu Liena exclaimed, "No, teacher, this is too precious..."
"No, Nana, you don't understand. The evil energy in the City of Slaughter is too heavy. If you stay there for a long time, the evil energy will affect your mind, causing you to lose your reason and become a beast addicted to slaughter.
Only those with strong mental power can resist the evil energy there. I know your mental power is already quite strong, but with this soul bone, your chances of getting out of there will be greater."
"Remember this, Nana, you must come out alive!"
Seeing how kind Bibi Dong was to her, Hu Liena was deeply moved and set herself a goal: she must obtain the Killing God Domain and never let Bibi Dong down.
"Thank you, teacher!" Hu Liena took the soul bone and returned to her room to absorb it. After absorbing it, she would head to the City of Slaughter.
…
Time flew by, and five days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these five days, Zhu Zhuqing and the others had all returned safely to Star Luo City.
Zhu Zhuqing obtained a decent fifth soul skill called Netherworld Shadow Link, and her soul power also increased to level 53, further enhancing her strength!
In addition, Zhu Yaqin and Lie Tianhu both obtained their ninth soul rings, becoming true Title Douluos!
Zhu Yaqin's soul power reached the peak of level 91, becoming an agility-type Title Douluo with the title "Ghost."
Lie Tianhu's soul power barely broke through level 91, becoming a power-type Title Douluo with the title "Blazing Flame."
With the two becoming Title Douluos, the number of Title Douluos in the Star Luo Empire reached an astonishing nine, second only to the Spirit Hall!
At the same time, on this day, on the fifth floor of the Alchemist Association, accompanied by a loud bang, Yang Wudi's maniacal laughter echoed from the alchemy room.
"Hahaha, it's done! I've done it! I've succeeded!"
"The Nine-Heart Jade Spirit Pill, I've finally succeeded in refining it, hehehehehaha!"
"Even if it's a pill formula from a thousand years ago, so what? Before my god-like alchemy skills, Yang Wudi can still refine it, hahaha..."
After laughing wildly, Yang Wudi hurriedly summoned two disciples of the Breaking Clan to invite Dai Weis and Ye Lingling respectively. Before long, the two arrived at the Alchemist Association together.
Yang Wudi immediately reported the good news to Dai Weis: "Your Highness, this old minister has not failed in his mission. After eight failures, I have finally succeeded in refining the Nine-Heart Jade Spirit Pill!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a pill emitting a bright green light appeared in front of Dai Weis, and a refreshing fragrance immediately swept out, making everyone present feel happy.
