Douluo Dalu: 9 Treasure Sword - Chapter 217

Countless swords manifested surrounding Bai and were shot towards them. The dark dragon stepped forward.

“GRRRRRRRRRRRR!” The dark dragon roared creating a shock wave that reflected all the swords. However, they were a mere smokescreen. Bai was charging towards the dark dragon, a pillar of light exploding from his sword.

The dragon swung his claws towards Bai, at the same time spiders threads came from each side, slashing at him.

“Boom!” Bai clashed with the claws, but he never tried to overpower them. Instead, Bai used his sword to pole vault, propelling himself towards the real Bibi Dong, easily cutting the thread and thrust his swords at her.

In a 1 vs many fight the ones that should be warier are control system, they sneakily and precisely act controlling the fight and restraining the opponent without affecting the attack spirit masters. On the other hand, it didn’t matter how many attack spirit masters there are, it’s impossible for them to attack at the same time without affecting the others, so it’s easy to disrupt their coordinated attack. Because of this, Bai’s first target was Bibi Dong. She even separated with her clone to cover a bigger area.

Bibi Dong kept her calm, her 9th red spirit ring shined. Bibi Dong 9th skill was Undying Body, she couldn’t be killed, even if her body was destroyed it would be quickly repaired. To surpass her defense, it would require a divine attack and she couldn’t sense that from Bai. So she was to let herself hit to finish him.

However, in the last moment, as Bai’s swords approached, her instinct screamed, she twisting her body, Bai’s swords piercing her body but failing to hit her heart.

“<4th skill: Thistle Spider Armor>” Purple thorns shot from Dong’s body. At such close distance, Bai couldn’t evade the attack, most of the thorns were stopped by his armor, but one precisely struck a joint, piercing Bai’s body. It was only a light wound, but it seemed poisonous.

A dark ray came from Bai’s right side, shot by Xiaogang. Bai covered in Protection Intent and crossed his arm. The ray swallowed Bai pushing him towards the ground.

Xiaogang arrived at Bibi Dong’s side with a worried face. Bibi Dong’s spirit avatar broke, revealing a pale and shocked Bibi Dong. She wasn’t dying or anything, but her wounds couldn’t be closed in a short time and she was tired like great energy had been lost from her.

“Calm down, Dong’Er. Never let yourself hit again” Xiaogang looked furiously at Bai “He seems to have some control over Life and Death”.

Xiaogang was right. Bibi Dong’s ability was a control over Death, not letting the body be affected by it. Theoretically having a body that couldn’t die. Of course, a divine attack could overpower it, but Bai could simply directly input his own Death concept at her, being able to kill her. Moreover, Bai was able to use his Life concept to take away the life out of her, causing great exhaustion. If Bibi Dong hadn’t evaded in the last moment, she could have been killed for underestimating Bai.

Bai wasn’t intact of this clash. He wanted to quickly finish one of them, putting himself in danger. His armor had been dented, its defense lowering. Moreover, a thorn had pierced his body and was oozing a poisonous purple smoke, corroding his body. The poison was so strong that his face was turning purple even in such a short time.

“♪Wonder if I gave a Red Velvet Oreo♪” Bai chanted and ate a Red Velvet, normal colors returning to his face, completely suppressing the poison and becoming immune to it. If something, even his body had become a little stronger.

“Poison seems not working on you. Even Tang San’s was unable” Xiaogang deducted “Moreover, even when continuously unleashed powerful attack, you seem untired, at your peak. You should have some replenishment method” Xiaogang looked around “Blood. If I must say. Making this battlefield perfect for you. We need to finish this quickly before the tables are turned” Finished deducting Xiaogang.

Xiaogang’s and the dragon’s 8th ring shined, both of them were engulfed by shadows, their presence completely erased.

“I won’t fall again for this trick” Bai lifted his left hand, his 7th ring shining “♪They go Together♪” Instead of a cookie, what appeared over Bai’s hands was an Oreo cake. Bai swallowed it with three bites. Bai’s eyes shined with black and white color, his armor glowed with a brown aura, repairing all the dented parts, the ant’s wings becoming longer and sharper. The hood of the armor was put over Bai, covering his head and forming itself, becoming a metal helmet in the form of an ant’s head, four antennas surging from it.

This was Bai’s 7th skill, Oreo Cake. It could maximize the cookies already eaten, increasing their effects 100%. In Bai’s case, he could join all the effects of ether Mayi’s cookies or Fenrir’s cookies, acquiring their strength and form. Physically, Bai now obtained the boost of Mayi’s spirit, like acquiring a new spirit, obtaining Mayi’s strength and senses.

Bai could have used Fenrir’s power, but in this situation, it was better Mayi’s. Fenrir was faster and stronger while Mayi had a better defense and senses. He decided on Mayi for the senses part.

Bai’s antennas twitched. “<Sword Heart: Elemental>” His swords exploded in energy. Bai turned around cross swinging them, cutting the air and space. In front of the swords, Xiaogang appeared, his stealth completely broken.

This was Mayi’s specialty, she had monstrous instinct and senses, making stealth or mind attack useless, as when they fought against the balloon spirit beast at Sunset Forest or when they fought against Spirit Hall Academy at the Continental Tournament.

Bai could sense that the dark dragon was behind, but he would finish Xiaogang before the dragon attacks.

Xiaogang seeing the swords aiming at him was surprised to have been found so easily, but he kept his calm. He prepared himself to make a sacrifice to create a new opportunity. Xiaogang’s 6th ring shined, instantly switching position with the dark dragon.

Bai cut over the dark dragon whose scales shined with a dark glow trying to stop the attack “BOOOOM!” Bai’s swords exploded, overpowering the scales defense and cutting through the dragon. His swords cut an X over the dragon, cutting him in 4 parts, killing it. The dragon became a dark smoke and disappeared.

Even having killed the dragon, Bai was completely opened for an attack. Xiaogang had broken his stealth, his face was completely pale, blood running from his mouth and nose, internally damaged due to the backslash of Luo San Pao dying. Even so, he didn’t stop, he thrust his claws at Bai’s back “<5th skill: Pure Darkness>” his claws shined black, covering them with strong Dark Elemental energy.

It didn’t stop there, the most dangerous wasn’t his attack. Xiaogang’s 6th ring didn’t stop shining, from his own shadow, Bibi Dong surging from it. Xiaogang’s 6th skill was <Dark Switch>. He could switch himself with Luo San Pao and at the same time switch his shadow with another designed partner, in this case, Bibi Dong. He could have tried to defend against Bai attack with Bibi Dong help, but he decided to sacrifice Luo San Pao in exchange of a counterattack of them, swiftly finishing Bai.

Bibi Dong’s body formed, her lower body returning to her slender legs and 6 deep green spider legs surging from her back, 9 new spirit rings appeared behind her, 4 blacks and 5 reds! This was her second spirit! She was a twin spirit user, her first one being the Death Spider Empress and the second spirit the Soul Devouring Spider Empress.

Bibi Dong’s 6th ring shined “<6th skill: Everlasting Wound>”, her spider’s leg glowed with jade and ominous light as they were thrust towards Bai. This skill was able to pierce over any physical defense, Bai’s armor becoming useless, and causing an injury impossible to heal.

Bai could feel how death was approaching him, unable to turn as such two powerful attacks approached at his back.
