Douluo Dalu: 9 Treasure Sword - Chapter 246

“There’s no escape. All of you will die here!” Bibi Dong stated as purple aura surged from her scythe.

“Xuexue” Bai called Renxue “I will take care of Xiaogang, I will keep him busy while you fight and talk with your mother.”

Renxue nodded, her sight fixed over Bibi Dong.

Bai clenched his sword, he flapped his wings dashing towards Xiaogang. Bai stabbed forward with his sword, drawing little circles with the tip “<Slash Storm>” An enormous gray tornado formed purely by sword qi shot towards Xiaogang. It didn’t clash against him, instead is encased him inside, in the eye of the storm, blocking Xiaogang’s escape routes.

Without stopping, Bai lifted his sword, a multicolored aura shooting from it as it condensed all the sword intents at the same time “<Myriad Emotion Claw>!” Bai’s sword will condensed, 30 giant sword, each one with a completely different intent, appeared at his back. Bai swung downwards his sword, all the giant swords slashing at Xiaogang like a giant claw towards him.

Looking at the attack, Xiaogang was calm. He closed his grimoire, taking it with her left hand. He lifted his right hand clashing with the swords.

Just as the swords were about to hit the hand, a shield of pure darkness danced over Xiaogang stopping the attack.

Bai kicked the air, cutting the distance between them, appearing over Xiaogang. Bai stabbed forward, spinning his sword, all the ethereal swords twisting and being absorbed by it “<Elemental Storm>”. Like a multicolored tornado, Bai charged towards Xiaogang.

Xiaogang crossed his hand, encasing himself in darkness, waiting for the clash. He was swallowed by the storm, pushing both away distancing from the battlefield.

When they were over 50 kilometers, the storm finally broke down, releasing both of them.

Bai glanced at Xiaogang “You let yourself be pushed” It had been too easy, almost without any resistance for his part.

Xiaogang smirked “I promised Dong’Er the girl only for her. With both of us thinking the same why I would negate a ride.”

Bai turned his face towards Renxue’s position with a worried look. If they wanted this, they must be prepared for it, knowing that they can win. Even when Renxue was stronger than Bai, Bai couldn’t help to worry about her “Be safe, Xuexue.”

Bai turned towards Xiaogang with a determined look, determined to finish him quickly to be able to support Renxue if necessary.

Both of them kicked the ground, dashing forward the other, swords and darkness clashing each other.

————————————————————————————————————–

Floating over the dark sky, Renxue and Bibi Dong glanced at each other, the golden aura from Renxue and the purple aura from Bibi Dongs, the only flames illuminating the darkness.

Renxue pointed her saber at Bibi Dong “Surrender now. There’s no meaning in this fight, there’s no way for you to win.”

Bibi Dong scoffed “I see you too proud of yourself. I wouldn’t be so sure if I were you.”

“I know about you, about the Rakshasa God. The evil Death God. Our forces are complete opposites, making the stronger one highly suppress the other. I had advanced my godhood to the God-King level, there’s no way for you as a 1st class god to win over me!” Renxue stated confidently.

“It might be, but you didn’t take into account our surroundings” Bibi Dong lectured.

“Mere darkness won’t shadow my holiness” Renxue lifted her sword towards the sky. Suddenly, her face contorted in shock, discovering that her divine sense was blocked, unable to reach her source, the Sun. “H-how could it be?”

“Shocked? Little girl” Bibi Dong grinned devilishly “What you said is true. However, this is not a simple darkness. It forms a divine formation previously prepared all across the continent, enough powerful of completely block any divine sense from it, not even the Divine Realm can see us now. We were lucky to casually find inside Star Duo Forest inside some rune of the Dragon God.”

“It won’t be too effective against other gods that obtain their power from the earth, but against you who need the light of a faraway sun, it’s perfect” Bibi Dong smiled “Moreover, look down at us” She said signaling at the soldiers under them.

Both armies had started fighting again. However, it wasn’t orderly with formations like before, instead, it was a full chaotic fight of all against all, people of the same side madly trying to kill the others. All of them, with blood-red eyes that shined with a low purple glow. The darkness not only contained Xiaogang’s darkness, but it also contained Rakshasa’s madness.

“With all this death, madness and resentment, I am bathed in my own element. Here I am the strongest” Bibi Dong lifted her scythe, the purple aura around it strengthening absorbing the evil energy of the surroundings “You’re the one that doesn’t have any chance!”

Purple sickles surged from Bibi Dong’s back, simulating something like wings. She flapped her wings, instantly appearing over Renxue, swinging her scythe against her.

Without being able to access to the sun’s power, Renxue’s strength was highly limited, only being able to rely on her own divine energy, clearly, insufficient facing against Bibi Dong. The darkness around her was so powerful that even extending her Angelic Truth needed a great deal of energy.

Renxue focused her divine energy and sword qi over her saber, surrounding with the maximum holy aura that she could. She twisted her saber blocking Bibi Dong’s saber.

“Booom!” Purple aura exploded in sharp knives, Renxue surrounded by a golden light shot away crashing to the ground under her. With all the elements in Bibi Dong’s favor, their strengths were too disparate.

Renxue found a little gash with blood over her hand, over it Rakshasa’s power tried to invade her. This was the special quality of Rakshasa. The wounds made by her will never close, moreover, Rakshasa’s aura had the nature of invading and contaminating the body internally, not even gods could easily free from it.

Renxue focused her own aura, slowly purifying and extracting from her body Rakshasa’s energy, but not being able to heal it. She was lucky that it was a little wound, if it was bigger, she won’t be able to stop it.

“Are you going to surrender so easily, Renxue?” Bibi Dong coldly stared at the ground “I expected more from my mistake”

Renxue clenched her saber. “I will never surrender!” Holy aura exploded from her as she shot towards the sky again.

“What can you do without your sun?” Bibi Dong scoffed.

“Even at the end, I must thank you, Bai” Renxue whispered to herself. Renxue’s armor started shining brightly, the holy aura around her expanding, the air around her swallowing the darkness and turning gold, a big golden sun appearing at her back.

“How can it be?” Bibi Dong was shocked at the appearance of the sun, Renxue shouldn’t have enough to create something so powerful that even caused her to feel fright. However, due to Renxue fighting against Bai, she had invoked her second sun over the continent, finally absorbing it over her armament.

The sun had lost some strength in the fight against Bai, so Renxue had decided to keep it with her, feeding it with her own divine energy until it completely recovered, before releasing it again into the sky.

This lucky action had permitted her to have access to the second sun as like Bibi Dong had told her, the darkness would only affect her senses outside the continent, not at all affecting at the sun in her armor. Even if Renxue wouldn’t be able to use her all strength, she was able to use a great deal.

“You won’t stop me, mother!” Renxue shouted determined as the sun behind her shined brighter.

Bibi Dong started trembling, her face twisting with pure rage “Never call me mother, mistake!” She charged swinging her scythe towards Renxue.
