Chapter 95: Hunt? Take? Fight! (1)
"You're Bibi Dong. What do you want? You brought so many people with you and used this Sacred Magic Ape to lure me here. Are you trying to hunt me too?"
In a forest near the core of the Great Star Dou Forest.
Standing near the Sacred Magic Ape and looking at the Spirit Hall Spirit Masters surrounding her, Ah Rou couldn't help but look at Bibi Dong and shout, shocked and indignant:
"You're overthinking it. I don't want to hurt you, but you must surrender and come back with me to the Spirit Hall."
Bibi Dong held the Pope's Scepter and spoke calmly, her beautiful face composed.
In her previous life, when she carried out this action, she had come to hunt Ah Rou for her spirit ring.
Because at that time, she had fully succumbed to evil and her heart had reached its darkest point—she no longer cared about those who had once helped her.
But after being "reborn," she had changed significantly.
This time, the reason she brought people here was not to hunt Ah Rou.
It was simply to take her back to the Spirit Hall so that the future would unfold just as it had in her previous life.
Only in this way could she make use of her knowledge and foresight from her "rebirth."
"Bibi Dong, although I don't know why you've changed so much, do you think I'm stupid?"
"If I resist, I might have a chance to escape, but if I don't and go back to your Spirit Hall with you, I'm afraid the only outcome is death!"
Ah Rou obviously didn't believe Bibi Dong's words. She couldn't help but clench her fists in anger, activated the soul power in her body, and prepared to resist.
Seeing that Ah Rou was still determined to fight back, Bibi Dong shook her head inwardly, though she wasn't surprised.
Because if she were in Ah Rou's position, she would definitely make the same choice.
Anyone with half a brain would never entrust their life to another's kindness.
That would be pure foolishness!
But since Ah Rou was unwilling to give in and return to the Spirit Hall with her,
Bibi Dong had no choice but to take her by force to ensure the future played out the way she wanted.
"If you won't believe me and insist on resisting, then I can only apologize!"
Seeing Ah Rou unleashing all her power, trying to break through the encirclement of several Soul Saints from the Spirit Hall in one move, Bibi Dong took a deep breath and gave a quiet command:
"Everyone, move in—restrain her. I want her captured alive!"
"Yes, Your Holiness!"
Hearing Bibi Dong's order, it seemed strange that she wanted Ah Rou alive.
But after ascending to the position of Pope, Bibi Dong had already solidified her authority within the Spirit Hall, so the soul masters didn't question her and responded immediately with a shout:
"Take her! Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Yin-Yang Immobility Field!"
Following Bibi Dong's command, Ju Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei—her left and right hands—shouted together and activated the Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Yin-Yang Immobility Field.
In an instant, Ju Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei roared in unison.
Their bodies burst into dazzling golden and silver flames.
At the same time, their ghostly martial souls and the golden Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum spirit emerged behind them like shadows.
As their martial souls were summoned, nine spirit rings in the sequence of yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, and black rose from the feet of both, encircling their bodies.
Just as the martial souls and spirit rings emerged,
Guimei and Yueguan leaped into the air.
There, the eighteen spirit rings between them detached and floated.
As Yueguan and Guimei finally drew close,
a dazzling golden and silver light burst from their bodies, transforming into a golden-silver pillar of light that shot into the sky.
The eighteen spirit rings flew to the top of the light pillar and instantly condensed into a massive golden-silver halo, which suddenly expanded!
In that instant, the space the golden-silver halo passed through
was suddenly covered in a layer of golden and silver light.
Everything became completely still!
And because the golden-silver halo expanded at near light speed, it was unimaginably fast.
Ah Rou, being close to them, had no time to react and was frozen under the dual-element field!
"Not good!"
Ah Rou couldn't help but look horrified upon realizing she couldn't move.
Even though her cultivation had surpassed 200,000 years and she was a high-level soul beast,
she still couldn't break free in the face of the martial soul fusion skill of the two Douluo.
Seventh Spirit Skill: Azure Vine True Body!
Sixth Spirit Skill: Dragon Vine Entanglement!
Seventh Spirit Skill: Earth Demon Bear True Body!
Eighth Spirit Skill: Gravity Suppression!
Seventh Spirit Skill: Purple Lightning Python True Body!
Eighth Spirit Skill: Thunder Prison!
...
Seeing Ah Rou immobilized by the Liangyi Static Field from Ju Douluo and Ghost Douluo, the surrounding Spirit Hall soul masters also shouted and immediately activated their seventh spirit skill, Martial Soul True Body, and their strongest control abilities.
"Damn it! Invincible Golden Body!"
Ah Rou was shocked and furious when she saw the Spirit Hall soul masters trying to take advantage of the situation. With a sharp shout, she instantly activated her most powerful defensive ability: Invincible Golden Body!
Ah Rou's Invincible Golden Body had an effect similar to Xiao Wu's—both made them immune to all damage for a period of time!
Of course, this soul skill wasn't broken—it couldn't withstand divine skills from actual gods.
But with Ah Rou's cultivation, not even Bibi Dong's ninth spirit skill could break her defense.
Let alone the spirit skills of the other Spirit Hall soul masters.
So when Ah Rou used the Invincible Golden Body, all the attacks aimed at her were instantly nullified.
This only caused a series of violent reactions.
It was like silver-purple thunder bursting in the sky, and amidst dazzling lightning and cracking sounds, a vast area of trees was set ablaze.
The howling wind launched countless vines and shattered ice straight into the sky.
Such violent movement naturally caught the attention of Xiao Wu, who was picking mushrooms far away in the forest.
"That place... No! My mother is in danger!"
Sensing the disturbance from afar, Xiao Wu immediately realized it had been caused by human soul masters. Thinking her mother had just died, Xiao Wu was filled with panic and fear.
But despite that, she didn't think about fleeing—she wanted to save her mother.
So Xiao Wu immediately stopped picking mushrooms, even ignoring the basket full of herbs, flowers, and wild fungi. She ran straight toward the source of the noise.
Meanwhile, back on the battlefield.
After using her Invincible Golden Body to block the attacks of the Spirit Hall soul masters,
Ah Rou instantly activated her spiritual teleportation skill and forcibly teleported out of the Liangyi Static Field.
After all, the Liangyi Static Field merely froze everything—it wasn't a true freeze of space and time, so Ah Rou could still use her soul skill.
And with her Invincible Golden Body granting absolute defense, her teleportation worked as usual even within the Liangyi Static Field, allowing her to escape.
"You want to run?"
But seeing Ah Rou escaping the field, Bibi Dong frowned and instantly soared into the air.
As she advanced, Bibi Dong held the Pope's Scepter and directly summoned the Death Spider Queen Martial Soul, entering her Martial Soul Possession state, then unleashed her sixth soul skill: Blood-Sucking Spider Thorns toward Ah Rou.
In an instant, the crimson blood-sucking spider thorns filled the sky behind Bibi Dong.
Then, as she waved her hand, those scarlet spider thorns exploded like a rainstorm, cutting off Ah Rou's path.
