Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 183 With You Here, I'm Not Afraid

Among many medicinal herbs, the medicinal properties of Acacia Heartburn are among the best.

Even though the main function of this king of flowers is not to enhance soul power, but to perfect the foundation, it still achieved an excellent effect on the cultivation of a soul master like Bibi Dong who was already exceptionally talented.

Furthermore, Su Cheng used various auxiliary medicines from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire to further catalyze the effects of the concentrated medicinal power in the Love-Sickness Heartbreak Red. In just one year, Bibi Dong increased her soul power by a full seven levels, breaking through to the Soul Saint level before challenging Tang Hao.

At this moment, the two were in a small principality on the southern border of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Su Cheng stood at a distance, watching the two people engaged in fierce combat, lost in thought.

Bibi Dong's talent is indeed extraordinary. Not only in cultivation, but also in killing and fighting, she is a natural-born talent.

In terms of methods of dealing with enemies, her temperament is also completely different from Qian Renxue's.

She doesn't care about chivalry, nor is she soft-hearted.

Having made up their minds to fight to the death, they no longer considered whether the fighting method was fair.

To be honest, if she hadn't been adopted by the Spirit Hall at a young age, given her circumstances, it would have only been a matter of time before she fell into the trap of becoming an evil spirit master.

The combination of the Death Spider King and the Soul Devouring Spider King's martial souls is simply a natural-born evil path.

Su Cheng had witnessed Bibi Dong's behavior during this period.

Before targeting Tang Hao, she spent some time learning about his specific situation.

This is not difficult to do.

Although with Tang Hao and Tang Xiao's strength, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary people to track them.

However, they made almost no attempt to conceal their whereabouts along the way, and their behavior was quickly exposed to many observant people.

However, everyone in the world knows the prestige of the Haotian Sect. Out of respect for the number one sect in the world behind the two brothers, even if they harbored ill intentions, they dared not take this opportunity to actually harm the two brothers.

Bibi Dong also knows that the duo of Tang Xiao and Tang Hao has now become a trio.

Besides the two brothers from the Haotian Sect, a woman with the cultivation level of a high-level Soul King accompanied them.

Judging from Tang Xiao's situation, he is not far from breaking through to the Soul Douluo level and can be promoted within a year and a half.

Her original plan was to wait for the opponent to break through, which would obviously be a better time to attack.

But it's too late; the one-year deadline is fast approaching.

Left with no other choice, they had to settle for second best and kill Tang Hao when he was alone.

At this moment, Su Cheng suddenly felt a slight stirring in his heart and glanced into the distance.

Tang Hao's reinforcements have arrived.

Sure enough, two small dots appeared in the field of vision the next moment.

"Brother Hao!"

With a powerful shout, the burly man rushed toward the battlefield between Bibi Dong and Tang Hao.

Another slender figure, whose aura was faint but considerable, was moving slower than the former, but was also heading in the same direction.

The three of them were originally cultivating and training in the Star Dou Great Forest. Today, Tang Hao, as usual, came to the city to buy some daily necessities, but he never returned.

The two waited for a long time without seeing him, and their anxiety led them to search for him. Upon sensing Tang Hao's violent soul power fluctuations, they immediately realized that something unexpected had happened.

Bibi Dong and Tang Hao, who were engaged in a fierce battle, also heard Tang Xiao's shout.

Tang Hao was immediately overjoyed.

He didn't think his opponent could do anything to him, but he had indeed felt immense pressure since they started fighting.

With Tang Xiao in charge, he was able to go all out without any worries, which naturally made him much more relaxed and excited.

Tang Hao is not yet qualified to learn the Great Sumeru Hammer. Even when he used the Haotian True Body, he was still suppressed and was at a disadvantage. This is something that has never happened to him since his debut.

Moreover, the woman opposite him, who looked so beautiful she seemed otherworldly, appeared to be much younger than him.

How could Tang Hao, who had always been proud and arrogant, accept this?

Although Bibi Dong did not wear a mask as usual during this battle at Su Cheng's request, Tang Hao did not recognize her.

When she served as the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong rarely appeared in public due to Qian Xunji's supervision, and she almost never fought, so her spirit's condition was unknown to the public.

Bibi Dong was startled when she heard Tang Xiao's voice, but then she immediately noticed the change in Tang Hao's state.

With a determined heart, the Death Spider King unleashed its full power, its eyes gleaming with purple light. Its almost tangible spiritual energy condensed into a line and, disregarding the backlash, pierced straight towards Tang Hao's forehead.

During the battle, Bibi Dong discovered that although Tang Hao's strange domain had a great impact on the will of both sides, the opponent could not control this domain very well.

In ordinary battles, this domain would undoubtedly have a strong enhancement effect on him, but in this life-or-death battle, any mistake could be magnified many times over.

When Tang Xiao's voice came, Tang Hao's tense mind relaxed for a moment, and Bibi Dong seized the opportunity instantly.

The next moment, streaks of blood gushed out from Bibi Dong's seven orifices, including her eyes, ears, mouth, and nose.

But compared to the backlash she suffered, this sudden mental blow caused Tang Hao's vision to go black, and he stopped moving as if he lost consciousness, his body falling downwards.

The spider's spear-like legs gleamed with an eerie light as they thrust forward mercilessly.

"brush!"

With a loud whooshing sound, the spider spears, imbued with deadly poison, pierced Tang Hao's heart in an instant, spraying out a mixture of poison and blood from his back.

"don't want!"

"You dare!"

As they spoke, a massive Haotian Hammer, as large as a small mountain, crashed down on Bibi Dong.

Su Cheng flashed to Bibi Dong's side, reached out and caught her delicate body as her Martial Soul True Body dissipated due to the depletion of her soul power.

Without using his martial soul, he merely raised his arm and slashed to slightly block Tang Xiao's attack, then quickly led her away from the place.

Su Cheng ignored Tang Hao, who was barely breathing on the ground, and had no intention of finishing him off.

Piercing his heart with the legs of the Death Spider King in its Martial Soul True Form state, the deadly poison mixed into his blood. He didn't die on the spot only because of his powerful soul force; he definitely wouldn't have survived.

"How was it? Did I not disappoint you?" Bibi Dong leaned against Su Cheng's chest and murmured softly.

Even now, she still has a splitting headache, a ringing in her ears, and her vision keeps going black.

"Don't speak yet. Take your medicine and then focus on regulating your breathing," Su Cheng said in a deep voice. "Your use of spiritual power is still too rudimentary. If you don't regulate it in time, it will damage your foundation."

As he spoke, he reached out his other hand, took out a potion that nourished spiritual energy from his pocket, and handed it to the other person.

Bibi Dong didn't reach out to take it, but instead raised her arm and hugged Su Cheng, saying, "It's okay, I'm not afraid with you here."

Su Cheng was taken aback upon hearing this and looked down.

At this moment, Bibi Dong's pretty face was pale, but there seemed to be a faint smile on her lips.

She didn't follow Su Cheng's advice to concentrate and regulate her breathing to restore her consciousness; instead, she leaned closer to him.

Perhaps due to the excessive consumption of her mental and spiritual power, she no longer possessed the sinister and cold demeanor that had gradually emerged over the past year, and seemed to have instantly reverted to the appearance of the weak girl she once was.

"You still haven't told me how I performed just now."

The almost coquettish murmur made Su Cheng's heart tremble slightly, and he subconsciously looked away.

"Very good, very good." He said in a low voice, "Tang Hao's strength is extraordinary. His martial soul is fierce and domineering, which gives him some advantage in a head-on collision. But you made full use of your own advantages, made him underestimate you, and then used your killing move at the crucial moment. This kind of combat wisdom is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

In fact, compared to Qian Renxue's fighting mentality, Su Cheng admired Bibi Dong's ruthless methods even more.

Perhaps she is slightly weaker in terms of mental fortitude and handling of desperate situations, but in terms of mindset in a life-or-death confrontation, Bibi Dong's thinking is the best choice.

"My Martial Soul True Form looks terrible, doesn't it?" Bibi Dong asked again in a low voice.

Su Cheng seemed to glean something from her words, and after a moment of silence, he replied, "Not bad looking, much better than me."

"As long as you don't mind..."

Bibi Dong then closed her eyes and began to regulate her breathing and sort out her chaotic sea of ​​consciousness.

On the other side, Tang Xiao could only watch as Su Cheng and Bibi Dong left, and he and A Yin quickly landed beside Tang Hao, both of them looking panicked.

He reached out and gripped Tang Hao's hand tightly, continuously transferring his soul power to him, his tone somewhat panicked, "Third Sister, do you have any ideas?"

Ah Yin silently summoned her Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul and continuously cast healing soul skills, but this obviously could not stop Tang Hao from walking step by step toward death.

The Death Spider Emperor Martial Soul is of extremely high grade, and its venom is ridiculously potent. Even touching it is dangerous, let alone injecting such a large amount of its venom directly into Tang Hao's bloodstream.

Even though Ah Yin was able to repair the wounds on the other person's heart, she was completely helpless against these deadly poisons.

Unless she immediately chooses to trade her life for his, she might still have a chance to save Tang Hao's life, given her Blue Silver Emperor's life level and attributes.

However, the group had only known each other for a short time. Although they could be considered good friends, they were clearly not at the point of entrusting each other with their lives. She would not think of exchanging her own life for even the slightest possibility of the other person surviving.

Ah Yin's usually bright eyes were now dull and tearful, and she opened her mouth but could not utter a word.

As time passed second by second, Tang Hao's aura finally dissipated completely.

Despair filled Tang Xiao's eyes, tears streaming down his face. He roared through gritted teeth, "Who are those two people?!"

"Why don't you live in the city?" Bibi Dong's face was still a little pale, but it was much better than before.

She stood beside a simple wooden house, looking somewhat puzzled.

This wooden cabin was a temporary dwelling that Su Cheng had just hastily built, and the two of them were currently in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"You now know quite a bit about these two from the Haotian Sect," Su Cheng explained while scattering medicinal powder to repel mosquitoes and low-level soul beasts. "Tang Xiao is different from Tang Hao; he's more rational. He now considers us mortal enemies and will definitely not let his guard down. He'll surely return to the Haotian Sect to seek reinforcements. Staying in the city might make it difficult to retreat in case of an accident."

"So what? The whereabouts of Tang Chen, the patriarch of the Clear Sky Sect, are unknown. Now, there is only Tang Tian, ​​a Title Douluo, who cannot easily leave the sect. Even if those elders take action, they are only Soul Douluo-level Soul Masters, and they will not pose a great threat to us."

"No, it's not us, it's you," Su Cheng said calmly. "I won't make a move."

After arranging the medicinal powder, he turned back to the wooden house. "Otherwise, why did I let you show your true face before, and why didn't I reveal your strength just now and let Tang Xiao go? It was all so that he would go to get reinforcements and then come after you. As for the reinforcements from the Haotian Sect, you're left to deal with them."

"...What exactly is your grudge against the Haotian Sect?" Bibi Dong's cheek twitched slightly upon hearing this.

"I have no grudge against them. My reason for killing Tang Hao is due to certain special circumstances." Su Cheng smiled and opened the door, gesturing for the other person to come in and rest.

After Bibi Dong was seated in the room, he continued, "However, the subsequent arrangements are for your training. There is no better training than being hunted by stronger opponents. Of course, with me by your side to look after you, it probably won't be as effective. But if it comes to the point where I have to take action, then your training will end here, and we can return directly to the Spirit Hall."

At this point, Su Cheng took out a manuscript from his pocket and handed it over, "Although you only killed Tang Hao today, your performance was indeed quite good. This is your reward."

"What is this?" Bibi Dong asked curiously as she took the manuscript.

"This is a cultivation technique that I have developed over the years. It can greatly increase your cultivation speed. You can use it to cultivate."

"Cultivation techniques?" Bibi Dong was increasingly surprised. "Are they methods that help Soul Masters actively absorb the soul power of the world?"

Even the Spirit Hall doesn't have this kind of thing.

"You just said you figured this out yourself?"

"That's right. Actually, this cultivation technique also has the effect of purifying bloodlines and enhancing martial souls, but it won't do much for you." Su Cheng said casually, "My innate soul power level is very low. It is precisely because of the help of this cultivation technique that my martial soul has been able to transform step by step and reach its current level."

"What did you say?!" Bibi Dong looked up at Su Cheng in astonishment, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. "You weren't born with full soul power?"

"Of course not." Su Cheng chuckled. "What do you think innate full soul power is? Something you can see so easily. Even if it exists, most of them come from prestigious families. Your situation is extremely rare."

"What is your innate soul power level?" Bibi Dong stared at him blankly, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

"Not even level one." Su Cheng thought for a moment, then didn't hide anything and told him directly.

Given Bibi Dong's personality, she's not the type to care about such things.

Moreover, her knowledge is now quite substantial, so she should be able to distinguish right from wrong.

"The difficulty of cultivating the second martial soul is extraordinary," Su Cheng continued. "If you cannot meet my requirements for the next stage, you shouldn't even try to cultivate the Soul Devouring Spider Emperor; it will only lead to your death."

In the real world, Bibi Dong was able to safely add ten-thousand-year or even one-hundred-thousand-year soul rings to her second martial soul because she possessed the power of the Rakshasa God.

However, without the blessing of the divine test, the most likely result of her adding a high-age spirit ring to her second spirit would be that her physical body could not withstand the continuous surge in attributes, and she would eventually explode and die.

"Your physical condition is absolutely unable to withstand the pressure brought by the second martial soul. Even if you absorb a soul bone, it will still not be enough," Su Cheng warned.

"Unless you choose to attach a low-level spirit ring to the Soul Devouring Spider King, its physical body will inevitably collapse in the end. But if you absorb a low-level spirit ring, once you reach the Title Douluo level, your strength improvement speed will inevitably slow down significantly, and it may even take decades to improve by one level."

At this point, Su Cheng nodded to the manuscript in her hand, "This is only the first volume of the Innate Skill. After you resolve the problem of being hunted down by the Haotian Sect, I will teach you the second volume. At that time, you will naturally have a way to improve your physical fitness."

"By then, cultivating your second martial soul will no longer be a problem for you."

"Furthermore, you cannot pass this cultivation technique on to others for the time being. If you cannot do these two things, I will not teach you the subsequent cultivation techniques."

"Innate Skill?" Bibi Dong stretched out her fingers and gently stroked a stack of papers in her hand.

"Indeed, this technique uses acquired skills to supplement innate ones, and I've named it the Innate Skill. It not only includes the cultivation of soul power and the purification of bloodline, but also the enhancement of the physical body and the condensation of the soul. It is the essence of my life's knowledge. However, I myself have not yet fully perfected this technique, so it is less effective for those with poor innate aptitude besides myself. But you, because of your extraordinary aptitude, should have quite good results when you cultivate it."

"A lifetime's worth of accumulated knowledge..." Bibi Dong raised her head, her gaze fixed intently on Su Cheng, "Such precious things, you're willing to teach them to me like this?"

Su Cheng felt a little uncomfortable under her intense gaze, turned around and walked towards the door. "We made a deal before, have you forgotten?"

"A deal?" Bibi Dong stared blankly at his departing figure for a while.

He then lowered his head again, gently stroking the paper in his hand, and suddenly chuckled softly.

That fleeting moment of allure seemed to illuminate the entire room, "but only you yourself felt it was a transaction."
