"The vice leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, Feng Lanlan. Level 98 Blood Demon Douluo. Martial Soul, Blood Soul Demon Luan." An ethereal voice rang out inside the ancient castle.
"Level 98 Titled Douluo." Qian Renyue murmured. Her expression could not help but turn very grim. This vice leader was absolutely the strongest person she had encountered so far apart from her family. In the Spirit Hall, aside from her handsome grandfather and beautiful mother, who were both level 99 Peerless Douluo, only her second grandfather was a level 98 Titled Douluo.
Although she had once fought Bibi Dong, it had been a team battle, and merely a teaching trial. At the time, Bibi Dong had also needed to maintain the Rakshasa Secret Realm, so she had not even displayed one-tenth of her strength.
Today was the first time Qian Renyue had faced such a powerful enemy.
"But what's there to be arrogant about just because you're a level 98 Titled Douluo." Di Tian's disdainful voice came from behind Qian Renyue. Di Tian took a single step forward and blocked Qian Renyue in front of him.
"Who are you?" The stunningly beautiful Feng Lanlan looked at Di Tian, tilted her head slightly, and asked in confusion.
"Remember this well, I am the Beast God, Di Tian!" Di Tian released his full aura. For a moment, all the black birds inside the ancient castle spread their wings and fled, while the soul beasts lurking in the shadows also hid away, trembling in fear.
"The Beast God, Di Tian." Feng Lanlan murmured, but still revealed a smile. "So what if you're the Beast God? You still won't be able to save these children today."
As she spoke, a bright red formation appeared beneath Qian Renyue and Di Tian's feet. The black birds around them came swarming over like a fine rain.
"Overestimating yourself!" Di Tian sneered coldly. All the black birds around them exploded, turning into black-red smoke, but instead of dispersing, it spread around Qian Renyue and Di Tian.
The black birds had no consciousness. Faced with the powerful Di Tian, they showed no fear at all and continued to attack the two of them in an endless stream, as if bent on self-destruction. The black-red smoke around them also grew denser and denser, and their surroundings became increasingly blurred.
"This is endless. This won't do. That woman is obviously stalling for time." Qian Renyue realized something was wrong. After calming down, she shouted to Di Tian, "Di Tian, protect me."
"Got it."
Qian Renyue tightly closed her eyes and released her Angel Martial Soul. The fifth soul ring behind her lit up, but Qian Renyue did not release the Holy Cross Formation. Instead, she began charging up. This was also inspired by Tang San in the original story. Tang San could use merely a ten-thousand-year soul ring to bring out countless variations of his fourth soul skill, so there was no reason her fifth soul ring, which had existed for tens of thousands of years, should be any worse.
Later, she discovered that the divine fire inherent to her fifth soul skill was the nemesis of evil soul masters and all kinds of evil energy. Qian Renyue then racked her brains to develop a variant skill of her fifth soul skill.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Sacred Flame Incinerates the Heavens." Qian Renyue opened her eyes and rapidly formed hand seals. She released the variant skill of her fifth soul skill.
Clusters of golden flames suddenly appeared around them. Under Qian Renyue's control, the flames connected into a sea of fire. The black-red smoke permeating the surroundings, which was immune to any attack, encountered the golden flames and seemed as though fuel had been added to the golden sacred fire. In an instant, it connected into a vast sea of flames.
After the sea of fire gradually died down, the formation beneath Qian Renyue and Di Tian's feet shattered along with it.
"Brat, look!" Di Tian pointed toward a lake not far from the ancient castle.
The lake was not a normal color, but bright red. For a moment, it was impossible to tell whether it had been dyed by the red moon or was truly filled entirely with blood.
Beside the lake were cages one after another, with girls imprisoned inside them.
A huge black bird grabbed a cage with its sharp claws and flew to the very center of the lake. Suddenly, the cage door opened, and the unprepared girls fell out of the cage, floating in midair. Only one little girl clung tightly to the cage and refused to let go.
However, the black bird seemed to have found some amusing toy, tossing the cage up and down. The girl could not hold on, and eventually let go.
There were about five to seven little girls in each cage. The little girls floated helplessly in midair, crying out in despair.
Feng Lanlan floated beside them, gently soothing them in a tender voice: "Good children, stop crying. Don't be afraid, all of this will be over soon." Her voice was exceedingly gentle, yet it sounded like a demon's whisper.
Qian Renyue saw that after Feng Lanlan finished speaking, she lightly waved her jade-like hand, and a black-red ice spike floated in her palm.
As if guessing what was about to happen, Qian Renyue hurriedly shouted, "No, get out of the way!"
But Qian Renyue's cry was useless. She watched helplessly as the ice spike in Feng Lanlan's hand pierced into the girls' bodies, then flew out and stabbed toward the next one.
The wounds pierced by the ice spikes seemed to contain some special drug. The blood inside the girls' bodies flowed like gurgling streams, continuously pouring into the lake below. Only when a girl's body became pale and not a trace of blood could flow out anymore would Feng Lanlan discard her like garbage.
"Feng Lanlan! I'm going to kill you!" Qian Renyue shouted furiously.
Qian Renyue tried to spread her wings, but soon discovered that ever since entering the ancient castle, she had been unable to fly. Her six wings were still there, but they no longer had the ability to fly.
Qian Renyue turned to look at Di Tian and said to him almost pleadingly, "Di Tian, help me!"
Di Tian tried, but his expression became rather unpleasant. He said to Qian Renyue, "Sorry, I can't use my spatial power, and I can't fly for the time being either."
After hearing this, Qian Renyue immediately released her Life Domain. Then she looked at Di Tian. After trying again, Di Tian could only helplessly shake his head at Qian Renyue.
"Run there. I'm with you." Di Tian patted Qian Renyue, whose expression was grim.
"Mm, I'm counting on you." After saying that, Qian Renyue quickly ran toward the blood lake outside the ancient castle.
Along the way, countless soul beasts and black birds that blocked their path were swiftly dealt with by Di Tian. The black-red smoke that appeared was also completely burned away by the sacred flames.
However, despite Qian Renyue hurrying as fast as she could, by the time she reached the blood lake, half of the girls had already died at Feng Lanlan's hands.
Qian Renyue looked up into the air and immediately saw the girls floating there. One of them was the girl who had prayed for the Angel God to save her on Qian Renyue's first night after arriving in Tianshui Town. Through the spiritual connection they had established, Qian Renyue could clearly feel that the other girl was very frightened and helpless right now. Yet she was still constantly praying for the Angel God to save her and the other innocent children.
Seeing Feng Lanlan throw another black-red icicle, Qian Renyue shouted, "No!" and recklessly lunged toward that girl.
"Pfft—" The blood-red icicle sank into Qian Renyue's flesh. Qian Renyue then tightly embraced the little girl in her arms and fell into the lake.
Pain, excruciating pain, pain that penetrated deep into her soul. Even when she had nearly died at Tang Hao's hands back then, it had not hurt this much.
"What is this?" Feng Lanlan cried out in surprise.
Her powerful willpower allowed Qian Renyue to quickly regain consciousness. Enduring the soul-deep pain coming from her shoulder, Qian Renyue held the little girl in her arms tightly with one hand and took out the Flying Divine Claw that she had seized from Tang San that day from her soul tool with the other.
After the Flying Divine Claw caught onto a tree by the lake, Qian Renyue hurriedly tightened the rope. Carrying the little girl, she flew out of the blood lake.
