Douluo Dalu: 9 Treasure Sword - Chapter 218
Just as the attacks were about to hit, Bai’s arms shined brightly. The left one with a black and white glow while the right shined brown.
Bibi Dong’s spider’s legs found themselves penetrating a stuffy animal while rows of teeth stopped Xiaogang’s claws. It was Mayi and Fenrir, respectively. They had appeared next to Bai.
“You killed Anty!” little Mayi puffed her cheeks angrily. Bibi Dong’s legs penetrating the antdoll’s body that had grown becoming 2,5 meters tall and now with its holes, seemed deflated.
Mayi put her hands over the doll’s head and pulled it, separating it from the damaged body and put it over her head as a helmet. The aura around Mayi completely changed surprisingly greatly Bibi Dong who asked herself how the little girl appeared and just by putting a doll the aura around her changed from a normal human to a peak existence.
“Baddy!” Mayi punched at Bibi Dong who hurriedly crossed her spider’s legs blocking the attack, her face changed when over a tone of strength was behind the little girl’s punch, pushing her over 30 meters before she stopped herself piercing the ground with her spider’s legs.
On Fenrir’s side, he was in his werewolf’s form. He bit Xiaogang’s claws, completely devouring his darkness. His teeth pierced over Xiaogang’s scales. He dragged Xiaogang’s body, throwing him away.
Normally, Bai could invoke Mayi and Fenrir for a very short time, like his last invocations of Fenrir, only doing a technique. However, this changed thanks to Bai’s spirit bones.
When Bai absorbed Mayi, she had left a right arm spirit bone. And Fenrir created his own left arm spirit bone when he reached 100.000 years old. These bones boosted their power, permitting to displace their might like inside the mind space. With these two final spirit bones, Bai had completed his armament, his physique reaching a new level.
With Mayi and Fenrir’s appearance, the tables seemed to have turned, from a 1vs4 to a 3vs2. However, it wasn’t exactly like that.
(WTF!) Bai had recovered his position and looked shockingly at Bibi Dong (How was possible in canon for a titled douluo, and even when he was spirit douluo, Tang San to win over her. She is a monster!) Bai shouted in his mind.
Bibi Dong’s aura had completely changed with the change of her spirit. Before, Bai was sure that he would be able to beat her more or less easily if it weren’t for Xiaogang. But now, Bai could feel a very intense divinity from her, her Death concept surpassing his own, her strength almost reaching a god. Bai wasn’t sure if he could go against her in 1vs1, he would need Mayi and Fenrir’s help to win, with Xiaogang there Bai had some doubts about his victory.
Bibi Dong’s 2nd ring shined, a over 2 meters long scythe appeared at her hands. It had a deep green color over the shaft that ended with a purple deathly glow at the blade. With the glow of her 1st ring, rings of green energy condensed over the scythe increasing its sharpness. Xiaogang, even with his weakened state, he clenched his hands, his 5th spirit ring shined covering all his body in darkness. Both of them prepared for a final clash with Bai.
Bai focused all his strength over his swords, this started shining brightly becoming over 2 meters long. Mayi and Fenrir growled, their auras exploding. The three of them prepared to face Xiaogang and Bibi Dong.
“BOOOOM!” “BOOOOOM!” Just before they were to clash, two big explosions resounded inside Jialing Pass Fortress, low divine powers could be sensed from them. This caused both sides to turn over the explosions. The east and west gates had burst open, Chenxiang and Tang San surging from them, respectively. Following them, more soldiers of Heaven Dou and Star Luo’s armies charging inside the fortress, overwhelming Spirit Empire’s forces attacking now from three directions.
“It seems that it’s the time” Bibi Dong stated. She opened her spider legs, Death Aura spreading everywhere. Her 3rd spirit ring shined, the Death aura started taking form, pure Death energy concentrating in the form of 50 spiders that spread all over the fortress, non of them targetting Bai or anyone.
“It’s time” Xiaogang approached Bibi Dong and hugged her from behind, their 18 spirit rings shining brightly. At their feet, a strange green-purple blood pattern appeared, instantly it spread all over the fortress, the Death Spiders dissolving with them. This caused all the fortress to be illuminated by a cold and ominous green light.
“This is…?” Bai could feel that it was dangerous, he could sense some resemblance with the patterns at Slaughter City, the ones used to open the door to the Hell Road, a blood sacrifice. “Tang San!” Bai shouted warning Tang San who was already approaching him “Regroup!”
Tang San was also concentrated in the pattern, feeling a sense of familiarity. Hearing Bai’s shout, he recovered and quickly acted. If this was what they thought, it would be fatal. Vines of Blue-Silver Grass Emperor surged from Tang San, spreading all over, binding the maximum number of soldiers that he could, favoring the known one, Xiao Wu, his first option.
Bai and Chenxiang quickly reached him, just as the blood pattern was becoming blindly. Bai’s Slaughter Domain surged, avoiding people and covering his maximum area of 50 meters, helped a little by Tang San’s own Deathgod Domain.
“HAAAAAAAAAAAA!” Cries of pain surged from all the battleground. It happened as Bai had expected, all the soldier’s eyes became bloodshot, becoming crazy and madly fighting each other or scratching their own bodies to death, while blood was continuously surging from their orificies, drying them.
This was a true hell, it didn’t matter what side, Spirit Empire or the allied forces, both armies were collapsing in a pool of blood. The only exemption being Bai’s domain, inside it, not being affected by the bloodsucking curse. As Bai hopped, if having the qualifications of taking the Hell Road made you immune to the formation, the Deathgod Domain would have higher resistance, being able to protect the people inside from its effects.
After 1 minute, the battlefield became silent, all the people inside the fortress dead with the exception of bai’s group. The blood pattern started retracting, all the blood going to the center of the formation, over Bibi Dong and Xiaogang, concentring over Bibi Dong’s hand. Finally, the formation completely disappeared, not a single drop of blood was left on the battlefield, all of it collected in a condensed deep red sphere over Bibi Dong’s hand.
“Master!” Tang San shouted, his face showed despair and shock looking at Xiaogang “What are you doing?!” He shouted with some anger.
“Tang San” Xiaogang looked down coldly at Tang San “I am no longer your master. Now, I don’t have any need for you.”
“We have finished here. Let’s go” Bibi Dong said to Xiaogang, ignoring completely the others and turning around leaving.
Xiaogang nodded “Take this last gift that I had prepared” Xiaogang snapped his fingers “BOOOOOOM!” A big explosion occurred outside the fortress, concretely over the allied camps.
“MASTER!” Tang San charged forward, his trident in front over. His face a mix of complicated feelings, for now only wanting answers about the change of his kind master.
“Bye” Xiaogang turned over with Bibi Dong, his 8th and 5th spirit ring shining. Darkness exploded over his body, it swallowed Tang San, stopping his charge and pushing him away. The darkness didn’t damage Tang San, but once he recovered in the air, the darkness disappeared and with it, Xiaogang and Bibi Dong’s presence.
Just like this, in a mere minute, the battle finished, killing thousands and thousands of soldiers, hitting a great deal from both armies, both strengths weakening. This would be known as the Bloody Battle at Jiangling Pass, the advent of darkness swallowing the world.
