Just as the Seven Great Consecrated Elders were leading the Elders and a team of thousands of elite Soul Masters...
Traveling thousands of miles to eliminate the Upper Three Sects.
Jin Mian, who was presiding over Spirit Hall, encountered some unexpected changes.
"Bibi Dong, what is the meaning of this?"
"Bringing so many people to surround the Holy Sons Hall, are you perhaps planning a rebellion?"
Although surrounded and facing a numerically superior opponent,
Jin Mian did not seem panicked at all.
Instead, a faint smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.
It was as if he had long expected that Bibi Dong would come to his door today.
"Rebellion? Humph!" Bibi Dong sneered, her gaze cutting into Jin Mian like a knife as she continued: "Spirit Hall is not a royal family, so how can there be talk of rebellion?"
"Furthermore, I, Bibi Dong, was originally the previous Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall!"
"This Supreme Pontiff has only come to take back what originally belonged to me."
"Jin Mian, if you know what's good for you, get down here obediently. No one can protect you today."
"Hand over the Holy Son's Order and publicly announce the restoration of my status as Supreme Pontiff."
"In that case, this Supreme Pontiff might consider leaving your corpse intact!"
After hearing Bibi Dong's extremely arrogant words,
Jin Mian remained calm and unruffled.
He stroked his chin.
His gaze swept across the subordinates Bibi Dong had brought with her, one by one.
Soon.
He discovered that Xie Yue and Yan from the Golden Generation were also mixed among them.
On the contrary, Bibi Dong's personal disciple, Hu Liena, was not in the crowd.
"I truly underestimated you."
"To think you could still command so many people."
"It seems my previous purging work was still not thorough enough."
Bibi Dong laughed loudly: "Do you really think I was Supreme Pontiff for several decades for nothing?"
Ever since she learned that Jin Mian was going to take action against the Upper Three Sects,
and that the Seven Great Consecrated Elders would also participate in this operation,
Bibi Dong, who had been in seclusion, realized that the opportunity had come.
Therefore.
She immediately contacted her former subordinates in private.
She prepared to take advantage of Spirit Hall's emptiness.
To reclaim the position of Supreme Pontiff and swallow the fruits of this operation.
One must know that the current Spirit Hall and Hall of Worship had been merged once again because of Jin Mian.
If she returned to the position of Supreme Pontiff at this time,
what she would get would be a complete Spirit Hall!
After the seven Consecrated Elders had left Spirit City one after another with their respective teams,
Bibi Dong immediately began her move.
"I forgot to tell you, I have already assigned the duo of Chrysanthemum and Ghost to capture Qian Renxue and Ye Lingling. If you want to save their lives, surrender as soon as possible!" Bibi Dong adopted the posture of a victor.
Hearing these words,
a cold light flashed in Jin Mian's eyes.
After a long while,
he spoke: "You really are a lunatic, to actually strike at your own biological daughter."
"Daughter?"
"Heh!"
Bibi Dong's eyes were filled with resentment.
There was not a hint of emotion.
"Who cares about this daughter!"
"If it weren't for her! If it weren't for the Qian family! If it weren't for Spirit Hall!"
"I would have been with Xiaogang long ago, living a happy life!"
Looking at this madwoman in the late stages of a 'love brain' before him,
Jin Mian no longer wanted to waste words.
He stood up.
He looked at her indifferently.
"It seems there is nothing left to say between us."
"Today, you and these subordinates of yours can forget about leaving this place alive!"
Bibi Dong mocked: "Just you? You're worthy of saying those words!"
"Today, this Supreme Pontiff will use your blood as Holy Son..."
"...to consecrate the flag!"
As her voice fell,
Bibi Dong activated her Martial Soul, the Death Spider Emperor.
Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red!
A total of nine Soul Rings emerged.
Then.
Her figure flashed rapidly.
In the blink of an eye, she had arrived in front of Jin Mian.
She raised her palm, striking directly at a vital point.
But Jin Mian was no pushover either.
He activated his Martial Soul, condensed his spirit power, and met her with a palm strike!
The series of movements was smooth as flowing water, without the slightest hesitation.
Boom!
A loud explosion.
The two of them each retreated a few steps.
"level 97?!"
"You have actually grown to this level!"
Feeling the spirit power fluctuations gushing out from Jin Mian's body,
Bibi Dong's eyes were full of disbelief.
She had originally thought
that the reason Jin Mian could become the Holy Son of Spirit Hall
was entirely dependent on the Hall of Worship,
and not his own strength.
Until now.
Only now did she realize that she was utterly wrong.
This fellow Jin Mian was so young, yet his strength had actually reached this level.
In the crowd,
Xie Yue and Yan were also extremely shocked.
To think they were only around level 60.
But Jin Mian, who was younger than them, had actually reached level 97!
A sense of inferiority instantly welled up in their hearts.
Facing Bibi Dong's shock,
Jin Mian instead said indifferently: "Since succeeding to the position of Holy Son, I've been so busy every day that I simply haven't had time to cultivate, causing my cultivation to fall behind quite a bit. It took more than half a year to increase by one level; it's truly a bit slow."
Such a 'Versailles' speech
directly left Bibi Dong and her subordinates speechless.
Good heavens.
At only twenty years of age,
his cultivation had already reached level 97!
And he still thinks this is slow?
At this age, if they reached the level of Spirit Emperor, they would already be considered top-tier geniuses!
Comparing oneself to others can truly be infuriating.
"So what if you're level 97? Today, this Empress will definitely slay you here!"
"Kill me? You, Bibi Dong, do not yet have that qualification!"
The next second.
The two of them were locked in combat.
Soon.
The two of them fought from inside the palace to outside.
Although Bibi Dong was a Level 99 Peerless Douluo, because of the Rakshasa Godly Trial,
she could only exert the strength of a level 98.
On the other hand, Jin Mian was different.
Don't look at the fact that he was only level 97.
But with that heaven-defying Soul Ring combination and Spirit Bone configuration, he completely made up for the gap in strength in between.
Boom!
After another head-on clash,
the two of them separated again.
At this time.
Yue Guan and Gui Mei were seen walking over with Ye Lingling, Qian Renxue, Xiao Hong, and Xiao Lan.
"The two of you did well!" Bibi Dong, thinking the operation was a success, praised the duo of Chrysanthemum and Ghost.
Then she looked at Jin Mian with a smug expression: "Jin Mian, this Supreme Pontiff gives you two choices."
"One, cripple your own Martial Soul and agree to my conditions from just now; in that case, I will leave your corpse intact and spare the lives of Qian Renxue and Ye Lingling!"
"Two, I will kill the two of them first, and then kill you!"
"You have only ten seconds to choose."
After hearing Bibi Dong's words,
Qian Renxue's fists couldn't help but clench tightly.
Facing the two choices given by Bibi Dong,
Jin Mian said: "I choose three: to kill you and all these people you've brought!"
"Even at this point, you still dare to speak such arrogant words!"
"Fine! In that case!"
"Chrysanthemum and Ghost, move and kill them!"
Bibi Dong immediately gave the order.
But Yue Guan and Gui Mei seemed as if they hadn't heard anything, standing motionless on the spot.
"What are you two standing there like corpses for? Why aren't you moving?"
Jin Mian looked at the two of them and said with a smile: "Elder Yue, Elder Gui, didn't you hear Her Majesty the Supreme Pontiff? Move!"
"Yes! Your Highness the Holy Son!"
Yue Guan and Gui Mei bowed respectfully.
Each activated their Martial Soul.
Under Bibi Dong's incredulous gaze,
they flew into the sky.
"Martial Soul Fusion Skill — Unipolar Static Domain!"
Dark golden energy formed a magnetic field.
Completely freezing Bibi Dong's movements.
Bibi Dong wanted to forcibly break through this Domain.
But the current duo of Chrysanthemum and Ghost were both at the peak of level 97.
The power of the Unipolar Static Domain had naturally risen accordingly.
Even for a Level 99 Peerless Douluo, it would be very difficult to break through in a short time.
"Emperor Armor — Combine!"
"Five-Gate Sure-Kill!"
Jin Mian donned his battle armor and summoned the aurora sword.
He poured the energy of the five elements into the sword body.
A single sword strike pierced through Bibi Dong's heart.
Boom!
The sound of an explosion followed.
When the smoke cleared, Bibi Dong had turned into a pool of blood...
