Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Chapter 79 Bibi Dong's Speculation

Wuhun City, the Pope's Palace.

The crystal chandeliers hanging from the gilded dome flickered, reflecting a cold light onto every inch of the golden bricks in the hall.

The golden dragon reliefs coiled around the pillars of the hall were fierce and menacing, but their sharpness seemed to be suppressed by the stagnant atmosphere inside the hall.

Even the footsteps of the patrolling guards outside the palace were so light, like feathers falling to the ground, through the heavy palace doors, that they dared not disturb the palace in the slightest.

At this moment, the three members of the Golden Generation and Ghost Douluo all knelt on the gold bricks, their backs taut and straight, not daring to even breathe.

Hu Liena lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her fingertips unconsciously clenched.

Yan's forehead was covered in a fine sheen of sweat. Although Her Holiness the Pope was a stunning beauty, she was equally ruthless.

Once I unleash my anger, it's not a big deal if I'm not involved, but it would be bad if Nana were to suffer as well.

Although Xie Yue appeared calmer than the other two, he couldn't help but slow his breathing in the face of Bibi Dong's imposing presence.

The Ghost Douluo was hidden in the shadows, and the black mist around him was a little lighter than usual.

He was clearly aware of the seriousness of this defeat, and even his usual nonchalant attitude was completely gone.

Bibi Dong sat on the towering papal throne, her gilded papal robes cascading down the sides of the steps, the embroidered six-winged angel patterns gleaming coldly in the dim light.

After listening to the report from the Golden Generation and Ghostly Tribe, she pursed her lips and didn't say a word.

The air inside the hall seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand, growing increasingly heavy, making it almost impossible for the four kneeling people to breathe.

The reports from the ghosts and others flashed through her mind. She tapped her finger slightly, but her heart was churning with turmoil.

Lin Yao is only eight years old, yet he has the first soul ring of a thousand years and the third soul ring of ten thousand years, which is very strange.

Could this unconventional combination of spirit rings be a result of inheriting divine power?

But Bibi Dong reconsidered and, after considering the relevant information, felt that this judgment was incorrect.

Putting aside the rarity of divine inheritance, she had previously specifically examined Xie Yue and Hu Liena and found a trace of Lin Yao's aura remaining on them after their martial soul fusion technique was broken.

Among them, the sense of Rakshasa God's divine power showed no fluctuation of divine power, so this possibility can be temporarily ruled out.

However, despite not being a divine heir, he was able to absorb soul rings beyond his lifespan. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had such an interesting little fellow hidden away.

A hint of interest flashed across Bibi Dong's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by coldness.

No wonder that person from Tiandou would protect this kid from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School so much.

With such talent, once he grows up, he will indeed be a force no less than that old fellow in the Hall of Offerings.

If they can become an asset, coupled with the Qian family's legacy, even if another Tang Chen appears, it won't matter.

The world is unified.

However, although Lin Yao was strong, he ultimately failed to grow up.

Xiao Na and her team lost so easily, which also shows their own shortcomings. This matter cannot be left unresolved.

Thinking this, Bibi Dong's expression remained unchanged, her gaze calm as she slowly swept over Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan.

The people inside the hall had some understanding of Bibi Dong.

It is obvious that the calmer Bibi Dong appears at this moment, the more terrifying it is.

"Ghostly."

After a long while, Bibi Dong finally spoke, her voice completely flat, yet chillingly cold.

"What kind of team did you bring this time? You just let others lead you by the nose, and let the three members of the Golden Generation be easily suppressed by an eight-year-old child."

Not only did their plan to stir up trouble at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School completely fail, but they also became stepping stones for others to raise their own profile. Tell me, what crime should they be punished for?

Upon hearing this, the ghostly figure trembled violently amidst the black mist surrounding him. He quickly lowered his head, his voice filled with respect and fear: "Your Holiness, it was my dereliction of duty. Initially, because Lin Yao was still young, I underestimated him, which led me astray."

By the time his subordinates realized something was wrong, the situation was already beyond saving, which led to the downfall of the golden generation.

"Do you think you can handle this all by yourself?"

Bibi Dong's voice suddenly turned stern, and her gaze fell on Hu Liena.

"Even though Lin Yao is exceptionally strong, he is not invincible. There are always ways to circumvent his attacks."

Your problem has never been agreeing to the match, but rather that you lost so miserably after agreeing!

She paused, her gaze sweeping over the three tense backs, and said coldly, "The three of you possess the 'Enchanting Charm' martial soul fusion skill, yet you easily lost to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School despite having this advantage."

This matter has already spread far and wide. How do you expect others to view the Golden Generation personally selected by our Spirit Hall?

Do we want the whole world to think that everyone in our Spirit Hall is all show and no substance?

Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan all kept their heads down, not even having the courage to defend themselves.

Inside the hall, only Bibi Dong's cold voice echoed.

"Also, do you know where your biggest mistake lies?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena and the other two subconsciously raised their heads.

Then they saw Bibi Dong had already stood up, her gilded papal robes swaying slightly with her movements, bringing with them a chilly breeze.

"I'll tell you, it all boils down to two words—underestimating the enemy!"

"First is Nana."

Bibi Dong's gaze was fixed on Hu Liena, her tone filled with disappointment and frustration.

"You rashly launched a mental attack on Lin Yao, but you didn't expect that his mental strength was stronger than yours, and you were instead attacked back."

Losing combat capability right from the start leaves the team without a core controller. Isn't that underestimating the enemy?

Hu Liena's shoulders trembled slightly, her eyes reddened, but she still bit her lip and whispered, "It was my carelessness."

"Then comes Yan."

Bibi Dong turned her gaze to Yan, her tone becoming even colder.

"You've always been brave and fierce, but you didn't go all out at the beginning, always feeling that fighting like that was meaningless."

As a result, Dugu Bo's granddaughter seized the opportunity of your underestimation and caught you off guard with a fourth soul skill.

She took two steps forward and looked down at Yan: "If what you say is true, then Lin Yao didn't intervene, and you immediately used your strongest methods."

With your top-tier martial soul, "Flame Lord," and your advantage in soul power, you absolutely wouldn't have lost so humiliatingly.

""

Yan's face turned bright red, her head drooped even lower, and even her neck turned red, clearly she was extremely ashamed.

"Finally, it's Evil Moon."

Bibi Dong's gaze fell on Xie Yue, her tone tinged with disappointment.

"In my opinion, you are calmer than Nana and Yan. You should be the brains of the team among the three of you, but what about you?"

Without fully understanding the other party's intelligence, they rashly agreed to engage in combat and were not prepared for battle at all.

And what happened? Lin Yao didn't even use his other three soul skills, yet he easily defeated the three of you.

"You couldn't even unleash the true power of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill. Tell me, is your role as the team's 'brain' adequate?"

In the end, Bibi Dong suddenly unleashed the terrifying aura of a Title Douluo, which spread outwards like a tidal wave.

This powerful aura pressed down so hard that the three people kneeling on the ground could not straighten their backs. It was controlled perfectly, without injuring the three of them.

"Your Holiness, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on the three of them."

Seeing this, the ghost quickly tried to dissuade Bibi Dong, fearing that she might become truly angry.

"The strength that Lin Yao is currently displaying is simply too terrifying at the Soul Master stage."

He is already comparable to an ordinary Soul Emperor, and even among Soul Emperors, he is not considered weak.

The three members of the "Golden Generation" are still young and inexperienced, so it's understandable that they made a mistake.

"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope."

At this moment, Yue Guan, who was standing to the side, spoke up.

"Who would have thought that a child who had only awakened his martial soul two years ago would possess such terrifying strength?"

The first spirit ring in a thousand years, the third spirit ring in ten thousand years—such a little monster is unprecedented in the entire Douluo Continent.

Xie Yue and his group had just gone out to train, so their ability to cope with situations was limited.

This unexpected opponent has, to some extent, exceeded their capabilities. We humbly request Your Majesty to be lenient in your punishment.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei were close friends, so naturally he didn't want to see Gui Mei bear the stigma of "incompetence" alone in front of Bibi Dong.

They were even less willing to see these three promising young talents of the Golden Generation severely punished by Bibi Dong for a single setback.

Bibi Dong glanced at Gui Mei and Yue Guan, and sneered, "Heh, now that you mention it, it seems I misunderstood them? You've been completely won over by that kid named Lin Yao, and haven't even given up the idea of ​​catching up?"

"Of course not!"

Hu Liena suddenly raised her head, bracing herself against the pressure of a Title Douluo-level expert, and stared firmly at Bibi Dong, her eyes showing no fear, only an unyielding stubbornness.

"Teacher, this time it is my incompetence that has brought shame to the Spirit Hall."

Next, I will dedicate myself to cultivation and strive to improve my strength as soon as possible, so that I may defeat Lin Yao in the future.

"So that I can redeem myself and never let my teacher down!"

Xie Yue and Yan also raised their heads, their eyes filled with determination: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, we will cultivate diligently and one day regain our honor!"

Seeing the unwavering determination in Hu Liena and the other two's eyes, no less than her own, the oppressive aura surrounding Bibi Dong slowly dissipated after a moment.

Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction at the three, especially Hu Liena, whom she regarded as her daughter, and then sat back down on the papal throne.

In her view, losing is not terrible; what is terrible is losing and becoming despondent, without even the courage to win back.

If that happens, the person will be completely ruined.

Na'er truly lives up to her reputation as the child I personally selected and carefully nurtured; her character is far superior to mine back then.

"Alright, since you have this determination, and given the talent that Lin Yao of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has displayed, this defeat is indeed understandable."

Bibi Dong's tone finally softened a bit.

"However, although you will not be held responsible for this matter for the time being, it is not something that can be easily forgotten."

"Sooner or later, the three of you will clash with Lin Yao again. I don't want to see you in such a sorry state again, understand?"

"yes!"

Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan responded in unison, their voices filled with gratitude and determination, and their hearts finally settled down.

However, the chilling aura hidden in Bibi Dong's calm gaze still left them with lingering fear.

It was as if at that moment, they were only one step away from death, and even their breath was chilling.

"Master, I have another question to ask."

Hu Liena calmed herself down a bit and asked again, her eyes full of doubt and curiosity.

"Do you know why Lin Yao has such strong mental power and is able to absorb such a terrifying soul ring configuration?"

The disciple wishes to learn as much as possible about him in order to find a way to surpass him.

This defeat was the first defeat in Hu Liena's life, and it was a complete and utter loss.

She was so humiliated that she never wanted to go through it again.

Only by understanding Lin Yao's background can one improve oneself in a targeted manner and wash away this humiliation as soon as possible.

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong lightly tapped the armrest of the papal throne with her fingertips, lost in thought. After a moment, she slowly spoke: "According to what you have said, Lin Yao is indeed extraordinary."

The reason why "Nana, your charm" didn't work on him is partly because his mental strength is stronger than yours.

On the other hand, based on my guess, he should possess a corresponding head spirit bone.

She paused for a moment, then continued, "Head soul bones are rare to begin with, especially those that can enhance mental power; they are even more sought after."

He must have relied on the soul bone in his head to lay such a solid spiritual foundation.

However, he probably doesn't want to attract unnecessary covetousness, and besides, your strength is insufficient to uncover his true nature.

That's why the head spirit bone wasn't shown.

"As for his ability to absorb such a terrifying soul ring configuration, there are only a few possibilities."

Bibi Dong's gaze deepened.

"Either the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School finds a precious pill or herb that can enhance his physique, or a top-grade torso soul bone that allows his body to withstand the pressure of a soul ring beyond his age limit."

Either he possesses a second martial soul and has absorbed a spirit ring for it in advance.

This would increase the age of his spirit rings and enhance his physique and spirit power, but it would inevitably deplete his own potential.

Bibi Dong comes from the Spirit Hall and is very knowledgeable. Moreover, she herself is a case of absorbing a spirit ring beyond the age limit.

We can deduce some things about Lin Yao's situation.

Little did she know that while her deduction was somewhat accurate, it was ultimately off-target.

The source of Lin Yao's strength is neither the rare soul bone nor the absorption of soul rings in advance for his second martial soul, but the secret cheat code hidden within him.

This was something Bibi Dong could never have imagined.

"So that's how it is, a soul bone, twin martial souls—"

Hu Liena nodded thoughtfully, her eyes flashing slightly, and she felt a surge of confidence.

"If he really depletes his potential prematurely, then since my brother and I have a martial soul fusion skill, we will have a chance to surpass him."

As long as the disciple cultivates diligently and doesn't waste a single bit of his potential, he will eventually catch up with him, and perhaps even surpass him.

On the other side, Xie Yue and Yan also had a glint in their eyes as they listened to the conversation between the two.

Most importantly, if Lin Yao gained his current strength at the cost of sacrificing his potential, then his current gains and losses are insignificant.

Winning in the future is the only true victory.

"Nana, you don't need to be too eager to achieve results."

Seeing the urgency in Hu Liena's eyes, Bibi Dong spoke slowly, her tone carrying a hint of advice.

"If what I expect is true, that he possesses a second martial soul and has absorbed a soul ring ahead of time, then he may face the risk of his body exploding and dying in the future."

The human body has its limits. The pressure of an over-limit spirit ring, coupled with the burden of a second spirit, will eventually exceed his body's capacity.

At that time, you won't even need to lift a finger; things will fall apart on their own, and they'll collapse without a fight.

Hearing Bibi Dong's words, Xie Yue, Hu Liena, and Yan's eyes shone even brighter.

If Lin Yao were to actually get into trouble because of his own soul ring configuration, then they would have one less powerful opponent.

However, it would be best to defeat it before it gets into trouble, so as to wash away the shame.

Bibi Dong looked at the three of them and didn't say anything more. Instead, she brought the topic back to the main point and her tone became serious again: "Alright, let's leave the matter of Lin Yao here for now. Before he becomes a Title Douluo, he is still within our control."

Next, let's talk about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. With three Douluo from one family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which used to be one of the bottom three upper sects, has now become so strong.

Its deterrent power has completely surpassed that of the Haotian Sect before its retreat, which is not a good sign.

Mentioning the overall strength of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the atmosphere in the hall became heavy again. Yue Guan quickly spoke up to comfort him: "Your Holiness, there is no need to worry too much. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has three Douluo, which seems powerful, but compared to our Spirit Hall, it is still quite weak."

Our Spirit Hall currently possesses more Title Douluos than can be counted on two hands. Even with three Douluos guarding them, they are no match for us.

"Stupid!"

Bibi Dong glanced at Yue Guan, her tone full of dissatisfaction.

"You only saw the number of our Title Douluos, but you didn't see the strength of these three Douluos."

Among those three Douluo, there was Chen Xin, whose offensive and defensive capabilities were extremely strong. His Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul was even recognized by that old guy in the Hall of Offerings.

There's also Gu Rong, who possesses a strange spatial power and formidable defense, and Dugu Bo, who is the best in group battles.

The combined strength of these three cannot be compensated for by mere numbers.

As she spoke, Bibi Dong tapped her fingers heavily on the armrest, her eyes filled with solemnity: "The combination of these three, plus Ning Fengzhi's assistance, is not something that an ordinary Title Douluo can defeat simply by sheer numbers."

Especially since Dugu Bo has the "Snowy Swan Kiss" in his hand, even though you and Ghost are quite strong and have a martial soul fusion skill, you were unable to gain an advantage when you faced Dugu Bo before, and you may even have suffered a loss.

With Dugu Bo's current overall combat strength, he is fully capable of posing a significant threat to Title Douluos above the Super Douluo level.

As she said this, Bibi Dong's mind was full of calculations.

The highest-ranking subordinates under her are Yue Guan and Gui Mei, both Super Douluo.

Even they are no match for Dugu Bo, so does she have to take action herself?

But she quickly rejected the idea as soon as it came to mind.

The coming period is crucial for her to inherit the position of the Rakshasa God, and she must not be distracted by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Thus, they risked losing more than they gained by focusing on trivial matters, jeopardizing their own divine succession.

Therefore, to deal with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, we would need a Title Douluo with high combat power.

Immediately, Bibi Dong's gaze slowly turned towards the direction of the offering hall, the light flickering slightly.

Why is it that Lin Yao, by cultivating a good relationship with that woman, finds it extremely difficult to get those old monsters in the Hall of Offerings to take action?

If the guys in the Offering Hall don't take action, they simply can't deal with the three Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Does one need to fully accept the divine mandate to change such a complex situation?!

On the other side, everyone in the hall fell silent as they watched Bibi Dong, while Zi Guang glanced at the Hall of Offerings, each with their own thoughts.

Unaware of the connection with Qian Renxue, they felt that if Bibi Dong could get the Title Douluo of the Hall of Worship to take action, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School wouldn't have a chance to act so arrogantly.

Unfortunately, the powerful Spirit Hall was unable to concentrate its power into a single entity, resulting in its current mediocre state.
