Chapter 334: Bibi Dong Hunts the Deep Sea Demon Whale King
A year and a half had passed.
Inside a secret chamber of Spirit Hall…
"Seventh Asura Trial complete: Defeat the Asura God's Grand Consecrator, Tang Chen. Reward: +10% Asura Affinity. Divine Weapon: Asura Demonic Sword, recognized."
Qian Renchuan had used three Yama Decrees to kill Tang Chen and obtained the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King's 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone. He had just completed the sixth trial, and the seventh came easily.
After completing the seventh trial, Qian Renchuan finally sensed the presence of the blood-red sword within him. He extended his hand, and the two-meter-long Asura Demonic Sword flew from his body into his grasp.
"This is the divine weapon—Asura Demonic Sword."
Qian Renchuan held the sword, which radiated bloodlust and endless killing intent. He didn't even channel one-tenth of his soul power, yet with a casual swing, a streak of blood-colored sword aura burst forth.
BOOM!
The chamber shook. The extremely durable walls made of special material were shattered. The sword aura carved through multiple layers of walls, blasting straight through the Pope's Hall. Sunlight streamed in from the breaches.
"That's insanely powerful."
Qian Renchuan stood dumbfounded. He was confident that with his level 96 cultivation and the Asura Sword, he could now battle his level 99 grandfather on equal footing.
As he felt the sword's might, the solemn mechanical voice sounded again in his mind.
"Eighth Asura Trial: Kill a beast with cultivation above 500,000 years. Time limit: one year."
Qian Renchuan froze. Where was he supposed to find a beast over 500,000 years old?
Sea God Island
Bathed in Sea God's Light, Sea God Island remained eternally springlike—warm and serene. The only difference: of the original Seven Sacred Pillars, only four remained. The deceased included Sea Illusion Douluo, who was killed in a battle against Spirit Hall's elders and the Star Luo army.
Since the Star Luo Empire ordered a blockade on Sea God Island, forbidding food exports from Vast Sea City, Sea God Island had been furious. They sent soul masters to confront them—but they were ambushed and slaughtered by a coalition of Spirit Hall, Star Luo, and even Heaven Dou forces.
Although Heaven Dou hadn't officially allied with Spirit Hall, after the Element City battle, they knew the real villain was Bibi Dong. Regardless of who in their court had been influenced by her, their course was clear—cooperate with Spirit Hall and Star Luo to take her down. Opponents were placed under house arrest.
As for the prince, Xue Hailuo, who had been slain by Qian Daoliu, the royal family was furious—but helpless. With Bibi Dong looming, the continent's only hope was Spirit Hall.
Sea soul masters who came ashore lost much of their power without water. Without Bo Saixi, the guardian priestess, and with Sea Dragon and Sea Lance Douluo both dead, it was unclear if Sea God Island was even stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan anymore.
In truth, Sea God Island could've survived easily—they were surrounded by sea, after all. But the sea soul beasts in those waters worshipped the Sea God and were considered kin. It felt wrong to slaughter them for food. And even if they caught some fish, they lacked oil and spices. Meals were bland and unpleasant.
At first, they hoped rabbit meat would work—but it only made them hungrier. Some people died with full bellies.
Just as hope waned, Bibi Dong appeared.
She knew well the Sea God Islanders hated her. But as a former Pope, she had means to win people over. She appeared just in time, during a one-sided massacre of Sea God Island soul masters by enemy forces, and saved them—intending to use them as tools for her future conquest.
Sea Illusion Douluo, however, she had deliberately let die, pierced like a pincushion by spears. She remembered his illusions and torture clearly—and longed to kill him herself.
The continent's coastline was vast. Even two empires couldn't monitor it all. Excessive control would provoke public outrage. Sea God Island used some coastal villages to trade for spices.
Still, food quality plummeted. Poor-quality seafood, bad spices, and rabbit meat left the soul masters living in hardship—barely getting by.
The Sacred Pillar Douluos knew Bibi Dong was a treacherous wolf, helping only to use them. But for the island's survival, they had no choice but to deal with her. They hoped she would at least destroy their enemies. As for the Sea God position—they firmly believed their deity would never grant it to someone like her.
Demonic Whale Sea
On a sailboat, Bibi Dong and Tang San stood on the deck. Tang San held the Sea God's Scepter. With support from Sea God Island's soul bones, his Clear Sky Hammer now had all nine soul rings, and his cultivation had soared—he had reached level 92 Title Douluo.
But even so, Tang San was Bibi Dong's puppet—completely under her control.
"Tang San, how did you kill the Deep Sea Demon Whale King back then?"
After multiple failed attempts and beatings, Bibi Dong had grown cautious. This nearly million-year-old soul beast had once battled the previous Sea God. She couldn't afford to be careless.
Suppressing his hatred, Tang San replied, "I used my Killing God Domain and detonated my Clear Sky Hammer soul rings to blow open its flesh. Then, I used Tang Sect's secret technique—Bodhi Blood—to pierce its heart and kill it."
Bibi Dong nodded. Tang San had done it at level 96 without the Sea God's Trident. Now that she had his detonation technique, she was confident she could kill the whale too.
"In that other world, Tang San, you were my greatest enemy. Who'd have thought that in this life, you'd be so pathetic—no match for Qian Xunji's little bastard. You've brought disgrace to your master, Yu Xiaogang!"
She slapped him mid-rant.
SMACK!
"Ahhh—"
Tang San was sent flying off the boat, screaming in pain. He skidded across the sea, bouncing off the surface and splashing water high into the air.
Half his face swelled up. He was furious. Bibi Dong didn't even treat him like a human. Sure, she'd given him six ten-thousand-year soul bones from the Sea God Island treasury, letting him enhance his physical body and quickly cultivate his second spirit—but he knew she was only raising him to level 99 for one purpose.
Sacrifice.
He had to endure. He had to bide his time. He had to wait for the perfect moment to strike—with Guanyin's Tear, and kill Bibi Dong once and for all.
