Those loose pajamas could no longer conceal Bibi Dong's proud figure. A strong scent of sweat drifted into Jiang Chen's nostrils.
Jiang Chen's gaze snapped back as if electrocuted.
"Little Chen, you succeeded?" Bibi Dong's smile was extremely brilliant.
Her disciple had finally become a Titled Douluo, and a Titled Douluo of terrifying strength.
If she wasn't mistaken, the spirit ring Jiang Chen had just absorbed had already reached a million years.
A million-year spirit ring, how terrifying was that?
And how powerful would the spirit skill attached to this spirit ring be?
Jiang Chen somewhat awkwardly reminded her: "Teacher, you'd better go change clothes first."
Only then did Bibi Dong realize the impropriety of her appearance. Her pretty face actually reddened for a rare moment.
Her pride had actually been displayed before Jiang Chen.
She hurriedly turned around. Her slender jade fingers grasped in the air, and a wardrobe not far away opened. A sleeping robe of Qian Renxue floated out and flew into her hand.
Not daring to stay even a moment, she flashed into the bathroom beside them.
Before long, the sound of rushing water rose.
Only then did Jiang Chen's embarrassed expression gradually ease, and his heartbeat slowed down.
"What, have you taken a fancy to your teacher?" The Asura God's teasing voice sounded.
"Bullshit. She's my teacher, and Xue'er's mother." Jiang Chen couldn't control himself and roared once.
The sound of water paused for a moment, then continued after a few seconds.
The Asura God laughed once. "What if she had nothing to do with Qian Renxue?"
Jiang Chen's face carried a trace of anger. "I respect you as a senior, but please do not touch my bottom line."
"Just joking. Take a look at your spirit skill." The Asura God changed the subject.
Being joked with by the Asura God about such a matter made Jiang Chen feel very uncomfortable.
But when he clearly saw the description of his ninth spirit skill, he was immediately filled with pleasant surprise.
His ninth spirit skill was Zombie Clone. After activating the ninth spirit skill, a clone would appear, without intelligence, requiring control, and possessing one hundred percent of the main body's power.
The spirit master clone he separated normally had a physical body that was not as strong as the main body, nor did it have the main body's various divine abilities, only the spirit master's spirit skills.
But the zombie clone condensed by this ninth spirit skill possessed his first eight spirit skills, and also possessed the main body's physical abilities.
Although it had no intelligence, under Jiang Chen's control, the strength this zombie clone could display was absolutely terrifying.
At critical moments, it could also be used to take fatal attacks and serve as a scapegoat.
"How is it? Not bad, right?" the Asura God asked.
"Not bad." Jiang Chen answered.
His spiritual power was powerful. Controlling another unintelligent clone in battle was no difficulty at all.
The Asura God did not ask what Jiang Chen's spirit skill was and continued: "Then I'll give you the remaining reward. Your nine spirit rings all already have extremely high ages. Raising their ages further for you would be meaningless since you don't have that much spirit power to release the skills.
"What you lack now is time, the time to cultivate to rank ninety-nine. Your current spirit power intensity has already reached rank ninety-two. I'll convert the remaining reward into spirit power and raise you another five ranks. No problem?"
"No problem, no problem." Jiang Chen hurriedly spoke.
His heart pounded wildly. A reward of five ranks of spirit power, and five ranks of a Titled Douluo's spirit power, how terrifying was that?
His cultivation would jump straight from rank ninety-two to rank ninety-seven. If word got out, who knew how many people would be scared to death.
Even Bibi Dong was only rank ninety-eight right now.
Yet Jiang Chen had nearly caught up overnight.
At this moment, the slight displeasure Jiang Chen had felt toward the Asura God completely vanished.
He once again experienced how good it felt to have a powerful backer.
Just as he was rejoicing, a gentle and vast spirit power was released through the Killing God Domain within his body and rapidly merged into his own spirit power.
This gentle spirit power had no attribute, yet it was incomparably pure and could be easily absorbed by Jiang Chen, quickly transforming into his own spirit power.
The meridians within his body also rapidly expanded to adapt to this suddenly surging spirit power.
His cultivation soared like a rocket: ninety-four… ninety-five… ninety-six…
In less than ten minutes, his spirit master cultivation had already risen to rank ninety-seven and rapidly stabilized.
He had broken through to the Titled Douluo realm and immediately reached the level of a Super Douluo.
Jiang Chen stood up and felt the incomparably surging energy within his body, filled with joy.
From rank eighty-nine to rank ninety-seven, his spirit power had surged more than tenfold.
He could finally use those spirit skills that consumed astonishing amounts of spirit power without any worries.
Moreover, the stronger the spirit power, the greater the power of the released spirit skills.
He believed that if he encountered Tang San and the others again, he alone could instantly kill them.
The Asura God said: "Familiarize yourself properly with this surging strength. If you want to go to Sea God Island, go ahead without worry. With me here, the Sea God absolutely will not dare make a move against you."
"Alright, thank you, Senior." Jiang Chen thanked him.
Just then, Bibi Dong pushed the door open and walked out.
She had washed her hair as well; it was still wet. She was wearing Qian Renxue's form-fitting and narrow clothes, which accentuated her proud figure.
Next time Xue'er wore this outfit it would definitely be loose… Jiang Chen only glanced once before withdrawing his gaze.
Bibi Dong sat down as if nothing had happened and asked, "Who were you talking to just now?"
Earlier, Jiang Chen had roared once because of the Asura God's joke, and Bibi Dong had heard it.
"It was Senior Asura God." Jiang Chen answered somewhat awkwardly.
"Oh? I seemed to hear you mention me. Does Senior Asura God also know me?" Bibi Dong was curious.
"He praised you as a good teacher who has taught such an outstanding disciple as me." Jiang Chen had already calmed down and skillfully began flattering her again.
Bibi Dong smiled charmingly and did not continue the topic.
She did not believe Jiang Chen's answer. The sentence Jiang Chen had roared earlier clearly indicated a disagreement with someone, and it involved her.
But since Jiang Chen did not want to say, she could not force him.
"By the way, what is your ninth spirit skill?" Bibi Dong's eyes, clear and cold like autumn water yet filled with curiosity, gazed at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen worried that walls had ears and the Sea God might overhear, so he transmitted his voice and explained his ninth spirit skill to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong kept nodding. "This spirit skill is not bad. This way, it's equivalent to you having doubled strength."
Seeing Bibi Dong satisfied, Jiang Chen's smile grew even more brilliant as he said: "Teacher, Senior Asura God's reward is more than just this. Feel my spirit power."
He stretched out his hand.
"What's wrong?" Bibi Dong curiously gripped Jiang Chen's wrist and carefully sensed the spirit power within Jiang Chen's body.
A moment later, she opened her mouth in shock and said in disbelief: "This… how is this possible?"
In her sensing, Jiang Chen's spirit power was surging like a vast ocean, absolutely not something a newly broken-through Titled Douluo could compare to.
She sensed a little; Jiang Chen's spirit power was at least rank ninety-seven, and possibly even rank ninety-eight.
She knew Jiang Chen's spirit power was far more condensed than ordinary people's, so she could not precisely determine Jiang Chen's rank.
Jiang Chen withdrew his hand and smiled: "After absorbing the spirit ring I reached rank ninety-two. The reward for the second trial also raised my spirit power by five ranks. Now I'm already rank ninety-seven."
Bibi Dong was stunned. It took a long while before she calmed her shocked emotions.
"At this breakthrough speed of yours, I'm afraid you'll reach the god level before me." Bibi Dong sighed.
Her heart was filled with endless emotion.
Back when she had accepted Jiang Chen as a disciple, Jiang Chen was only six years old, and she was already a Titled Douluo at that time.
Yet more than ten years had passed, and Jiang Chen's cultivation had already nearly caught up to hers.
In terms of combat strength, Jiang Chen could probably easily crush her.
Eight five-hundred-thousand-year spirit rings, one one-million-year spirit ring, plus rank ninety-seven spirit power, she could not think of anyone on the Douluo Continent who could be Jiang Chen's opponent.
This disciple of hers was only rank ninety-seven yet was already invincible under the heavens.
At this moment, Bibi Dong suddenly felt incomparably proud.
Such an outstanding young man was her, Bibi Dong's, disciple.
"By the way, Teacher, now that I've broken through to Titled Douluo, I'll have to undergo tribulation again within three days. You…"
Bibi Dong waved her hand and interrupted Jiang Chen's words. "This time don't even think about me protecting you again."
Remembering how last time she had been stuffed into a coffin by Jiang Chen and even ruined a set of clothes, her mood instantly turned unpleasant.
Jiang Chen was somewhat embarrassed and also somewhat helpless as he said: "Those two are both in seclusion."
Bibi Dong stood up, glared at Jiang Chen once, and said: "Rest early. Come find me tomorrow morning."
With that, she directly pushed the door and left.
After exiting the door, the corners of Bibi Dong's mouth unconsciously curved upward. For some reason, her mood was somewhat cheerful.
Jiang Chen waved a hand, closed the door, and began attempting to cultivate.
A moment later, he stopped, brows slightly furrowed.
After breaking through to Titled Douluo, the speed of cultivation had become even slower.
He estimated that for spirit power to break through from rank ninety-seven to rank ninety-eight, it might take more than a year.
This one rank, for other Titled Douluo, might take several years or even more than a decade, but for him, even one year felt too long.
What he lacked most right now was time. Although Tang San and the others were no longer in his eyes, the threats of the Sea God, the God of Destruction, and those fellows remained.
This time they could find Tang San to deal with him; next time they might have other methods.
Although his strength had already surged, Jiang Chen still felt enormous pressure.
Only by becoming the Asura God as soon as possible would he no longer fear any methods.
Stay on the Douluo Continent to cultivate for a hundred years, then go to the God Realm to settle accounts with those fellows.
"Let's see what rewards there will be after the tribulation tomorrow. Hopefully it'll give me another pleasant surprise."
...
On Sea God Island, Tang San and the others had already recovered.
Under the powerful divine power, the toxins within their bodies had also been completely cleared.
Apart from still looking a bit pale, they were already fine.
At this moment, the seven of Tang San were gathered in a secret chamber, summarizing and reflecting on this failed assassination.
"Jiang Chen!" Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth, her voice like that of a fierce ghost. The hatred within it made one's spine involuntarily chill.
Half of her jet-black hair had already turned white.
At that time Jiang Chen had sucked all the blood from her body dry. If not for the divine power protecting her, she would already be dead.
Ma Hongjun, who was usually the most carefree and most likely to look down on Jiang Chen, had become unusually quiet, as if his personality had changed.
The expressions of the others were also very ugly.
The scene remained silent for a long time.
Zhu Zhuqing broke the silence and said: "Senior Chen Xin and Senior Gu Rong both seemed to be released by Jiang Chen's sixth spirit ring, plus that terrifyingly powerful monster. Do we still have any chance of killing him?"
Another stretch of silence.
A moment later, Tang San said: "It's possible. As long as we become gods at the fastest speed. We've all experienced the terrifying power of divine power. That's absolutely not something a mortal can withstand. At that time, no matter how strong he is, he'll still die at our hands."
Just then, the Sea God's voice sounded in this sealed secret chamber: "Impossible. You alone simply cannot kill Jiang Chen."
The Shrek Seven Devils were not unfamiliar with this voice at all.
Hearing the Sea God say this, the seven people's faces all turned pale. Thinking that their great enmity would be difficult to avenge, their hearts felt incomparably miserable.
The Sea God continued: "Jiang Chen has already broken through to Titled Douluo. Under the Asura God's reward, his cultivation has already reached rank ninety-seven."
Tang San finally felt deep powerlessness and dejection.
Previously his cultivation had surpassed Jiang Chen's, and he had even felt a bit complacent because of it. As a result, the battle with Jiang Chen had given him a heavy blow.
Now Jiang Chen's cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds, once again leaving him far behind in one go.
He could not think of any other method to kill Jiang Chen. In terms of strength he was inferior to Jiang Chen.
The poisons that the Tang Sect was best at would definitely not affect Jiang Chen.
As for hidden weapons, after experiencing Jiang Chen's strength, he had already given up.
Even if he manufactured the strongest hidden weapons, their lethality against Jiang Chen would be limited.
He did not even have enough time to cultivate now; where would he find time to manufacture hidden weapons?
"Senior Sea God, does that mean our assessment this time counts as a failure?" Tang San asked.
"No. You still have a chance. Jiang Chen should personally come to Sea God Island before long. At that time you can take the opportunity to kill him."
"But didn't you just say his strength has surged and we can't kill him?" Tang San was puzzled.
The Sea God said: "You just focus on cultivating. When the time comes, as long as he dares to come, he will definitely die here."
At this moment, Tang San finally asked the question that had puzzled him for a long time: "Senior, does Jiang Chen have some secret on him? It seems you and several other seniors all hope for his death."
Tang San had always had this doubt in his heart.
Why did the assessment have to be about defeating Jiang Chen? Couldn't defeating other powerhouses work?
At the time the Sea God had said that defeating Jiang Chen could eliminate their heart demons.
But now, Tang San sensitively felt from the Sea God's words a sense of urgency to kill Jiang Chen.
The Sea God was silent for a moment, then said: "Correct. Jiang Chen has killed too many and is utterly devoid of humanity. He has already drawn the attention of the gods of the God Realm, so he must die.
"You don't need to think too much. Just cultivate hard. Rest assured, your enmity will definitely be avenged."
Joy appeared on the faces of Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and the others.
Even the lofty gods of the God Realm wanted Jiang Chen dead, so Jiang Chen definitely would not live long.
"I really hope he comes soon. I want to see him die with my own eyes!" Ning Rongrong said with a ferocious expression.
After learning of Jiang Chen's inevitable fate of death, their dejected emotions were swept away, and their hearts became incomparably pleased.
Tang San pondered for a moment, then said: "There's something I want to beg of everyone."
The other six all looked over.
Tang San said bitterly: "Regarding the matter of my great-grandfather, I hope you can keep it secret for me."
He was truly afraid.
Father and son had finally recognized their ancestry and been acknowledged by the Clear Sky Clan.
If the elders learned that he had killed his own great-grandfather, he did not know how they would treat the two of them.
Moreover, the person his father Tang Hao most revered in his life was Tang Chen.
Tang San dared not imagine how Tang Hao would punish him if he learned the truth.
"I don't want the elders to be heartbroken. After all, Great-grandfather has been missing for so many years. Just let them continue to keep a beautiful illusion in their hearts." Tang San said softly.
Dai Mubai and the others nodded.
"Little San, we understand. Don't worry."
...
At dawn, on a desolate mountain far from Spirit City, thunder rolled across the sky.
Bibi Dong looked at Jiang Chen, who was being struck by heavenly lightning, her mood quite relaxed.
Some things, after being nervous about them a few times, one could face calmly.
Her confidence in Jiang Chen had already swollen to an extremely high degree.
She understood that no matter how terrifying this heavenly tribulation was, it would not take Jiang Chen's life.
This kid's life was very tough.
