Douluo Continent: I had just reached my limit when the sky exposed me.

Chapter 190 The Seven-Day Period Has Arrived
Ning Rongrong's auxiliary light flashed wildly, maximizing her speed boost.

Ye Lingling tried her best to replenish everyone's soul power, but the difference in strength between the two sides was obvious!

The distance is being rapidly reduced!
Yu Tianheng and the others looked ashen-faced. They were already injured and their soul power was greatly depleted, so they couldn't pick up their speed at all!

They were about to be swallowed up by the terrifying shadow behind them.

"Am I really going to die here today...?"

A strong sense of resentment welled up in Yu Tianheng's heart.

At this critical moment, a voice carrying a faint smell of alcohol, yet containing supreme majesty and unrestrained spirit, seemed to come from the heavens above.

The sound rang clearly in everyone's ears, instantly calming the panic in everyone's hearts.

"Anyone who crosses this line shall die."

As soon as the words fell!
A pale blue, thin as a cicada's wing, yet seemingly containing the power to create the world!

It appeared silently a hundred meters behind everyone, stretching across the forest.

Immediately afterwards, everyone felt a blur before their eyes!
A dashing figure in a flowing blue robe, with a gourd of wine hanging from his waist, stood with his hands behind his back!

It hovered leisurely behind that thin line of sword energy.

It was Li Bai!

His gaze was calm as he looked at the source of the terrifying aura that swept in like dark clouds pressing down on the city!
It was as if they were facing nothing more than a menacing cat or dog.

"Roar!"

A 100,000-year-old soul beast is in pursuit!

It seemed to be enraged by the sudden appearance of this tiny human!
An even more violent aura erupted forth!

It was shaped like a giant ape, but its entire body was covered in metallic black fur!
A terrifying entity with a single, blood-red eye on its forehead.

A close relative of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with 100,000 years of cultivation, the One-Eyed Blood Ape!
It wields its massive arms, powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks, carrying with it a bloody wind and destructive energy!
It crashed violently into that seemingly fragile line of sword energy.

It was determined to tear this human who dared to obstruct it, along with the prey in front of it, to shreds!
However, what happened next was unforgettable for everyone.

The moment the one-eyed blood ape's terrifying power, enough to shake mountains, came into contact with the thin line of sword energy!

"laugh!"

There was no earth-shattering explosion!
There was only a faint, almost negligible sound, like a hot knife cutting butter.

The thin line of pale blue sword energy remained completely still.

Not even a flicker of light.

However, the massive, ferociously charging one-eyed blood ape came to an abrupt halt as if it had crashed into an invisible, indestructible wall of sighs!
Immediately afterwards, on its tough skin covered with jet-black fur, at the point where it came into contact with the fine lines of sword energy!
Suddenly, a smooth, mirror-like wound appeared, deep enough to expose the bone!
Dark golden blood gushed out like a fountain!

"Ow!!"

The one-eyed blood ape let out a deafening howl filled with pain and horror!

Its once blood-red eyes, filled with violence and a bloodthirsty desire, now looked at the figure in green robes ahead with nothing but boundless fear and disbelief!
It was just a thin line of sword energy drawn casually!

Without even launching an attack, the force of the counter-attack from passive defense easily broke through its formidable defense built up over 100,000 years!

This has caused such a devastating blow!
What level of power is this!

Who exactly is this human being before us?

The one-eyed blood ape's massive body trembled violently from the intense pain and fear!
It dared not even think of moving forward again!
They couldn't even muster the thought of revenge!

The scarlet single eye stared intently at Li Bai, filled with apprehension, before turning away without hesitation!
They fled in a sorry state, howling in pain, even faster than when they arrived!

In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the depths of the dense forest!

All that remained was a scene of utter devastation and a faint lingering smell of blood.

The crisis was resolved so abruptly!

And it was so shocking.

Li Bai withdrew his gaze, as if he had only done a trivial matter.

He turned around, looked at the stunned and speechless crowd, especially Dugu Yan and the others, and smiled nonchalantly.

"Alright, the problem is solved."

"Continue your training. Remember, a true strongman not only needs to defeat his enemies, but also needs to know how to assess the situation and protect himself."

Before the words were even finished, a flash of Azure Lotus Sword energy appeared!
His figure had vanished like a bubble, as if he had never existed.

Only when Li Bai's presence completely disappeared did everyone wake up as if from a dream and breathe a long sigh of relief.

Immediately following was the ecstatic joy of surviving a disaster, and the boundless awe at Li Bai's astonishing talent.

"Li... Teacher Li Bai... is too strong!"

Ning Rongrong patted her chest, her face still a little pale, but her eyes were full of admiration.

"A casual sword strike forced back a 100,000-year-old soul beast..."

Ye Lingling murmured, her usually aloof face now filled with awe.

Ao Ying excitedly waved her fist.

"One day, I want to be as strong as Teacher Li!"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded silently.
He buried that yearning for power deep in his heart.

The way Yu Tianheng, Yu Feng, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, and the others looked at Dugu Yan and the others had completely changed.

Previously, we were shocked by their increased strength, but now we are awestruck by the unfathomable depth of their foundation.

Even the teachers who accompany and protect him possess such unfathomable strength!
"Was that the poet, wine-loving swordsman, and immortal poet on the Heavenly Ranking, Senior Li Bai?"

Yu Tianheng suppressed the turmoil in his heart and asked with utmost respect.

Dugu Yan nodded: "It's Teacher Li Bai."

Upon confirmation, Yu Tianheng and the others displayed expressions of immense admiration and longing.

That's an unparalleled powerhouse standing at the pinnacle of the continent!

He actually personally protected Dugu Yan and the others!

The importance that Beidou Academy places on its students is evident!
Afterwards, the two sides exchanged a few words briefly.

Yu Tianheng learned that Dugu Yan and the others would continue to search for soul rings for Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing.

Since they were not in good condition and needed to leave the forest to rest as soon as possible, they did not disturb them further.

Before parting, Yu Tianheng solemnly said to Dugu Yan, "Beidou Academy... is indeed extraordinary. If there is an opportunity in the future, my Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family hopes to have more exchanges with Beidou Academy."

Dugu Yan understood what he meant and nodded.

"I will pass on the message to the dean."

The two then parted ways.

With mixed feelings, Yu Tianheng and his companions quickly left, while the Beidou team composed themselves and continued their soul-hunting journey.

……

The next two days!

With their condition in excellent form after being baptized by the Tree of Life and with Li Bai secretly protecting them, the Beidou team's training went quite smoothly.

They all obtained the appropriate spirit rings!

Thus, all objectives of the trip were achieved, and everyone gained a great deal, with their abilities significantly improved.

After leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, they returned directly to the Beidou Academy to report back to Lu Xiao!
And make the most of the remaining time to digest what you've learned on this trip and solidify your cultivation.

……

Time flies!
In the blink of an eye, seven days have passed since the power rankings were announced.

The turmoil and preparations for war on the mainland caused by the power rankings and kill rankings have not yet subsided!
Countless gazes were once again drawn to the sky above, where the sky was surging violently again, radiating a dark golden glow of ancient bloodline!

The seven-day period has arrived!

The Bloodline Inheritance Ranking is about to be revealed!
"It's finally here!"

"I've been waiting for seven days, I'm so curious! Which bloodlines will make it into the top ten?"

"Can our human six-winged angels and sea god bloodlines overpower those old monsters of the soul beasts?"

"The Silver Dragon King's dragon god bloodline must be number one, right?"

"What about the bloodlines of those monsters from Beidou Academy? Will they be on the list?"

Throughout the entire continent, whether in human cities, soul beast forests, or overseas islands!
Countless living beings held their breath, eagerly awaiting the outcome.

Bloodline is about origins and glory!

The release of this list will undoubtedly have a profound impact on how people on the mainland perceive themselves and each other!
Under the watchful eyes of countless expectant, nervous, and curious people.

Above the sky, the dark golden light finally condensed to its maximum, transforming into ten dark golden seat phantoms exuding a vast and ancient aura, lined up in a row!

Immediately afterwards, the solemn and magnificent sound of the celestial canopy, accompanied by the first seat that slowly lit up, resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

[The tenth place on the Douluo Continent Bloodline Inheritance Ranking will be revealed soon!]

The battle for the glory of bloodlines has officially begun!
