Chapter 32: The Decisive Battle at the Summit of Soul Mountain, the Plan to Take Bibi Dong Away.
Tang Jianfeng's five soul skills are all offensive and violent, with only one leaning towards defense: his third soul skill, Gale Hammer, which uses attack to defend.
Another support-type soul master, Tang Jingyu, possesses the support effects of the Haotian Flower. Lin Fan learned about this during training. The Haotian Flower's support function is somewhat similar to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda: the first soul skill increases strength, the second restores some soul power and stamina, the third and fourth skills increase domineering attack power, and the fifth skill increases defense and healing.
The Haotian Flower's support capabilities are clearly not as comprehensive as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's, and its healing and soul power recovery effects are inferior to Ye Keke's Nine Heart Begonia martial soul. However, the Haotian Flower's increase in attack power far surpasses that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
During training, after Tang Jingyu used all his soul skills, Lin Fan felt his attack power increase by more than 60%, a truly terrifying figure.
Captain Tang Huo'er had been directing the training, but Lin Fan didn't yet know what her soul skill was.
Three days before the competition, the Clear Sky Sect's convoy escorted the seven members of the Clear Sky Team from the Clear Sky Sect headquarters to participate in this elite soul master competition that had attracted attention throughout the continent.
Captain Tang Huo'er and two others, along with Lin Fan and his three companions, all sat in one carriage. Pulling the carriage wasn't a horse, but a tamed soul beast, moving at incredible speed.
At this point, Lin Fan realized that this elite soul master competition was far more complex than the advanced soul master academy competition in the original story; it was fraught with danger. The competition venue wasn't in Heaven Dou or Star Luo, but at the summit of Douhun Mountain, hundreds of kilometers outside Wuhun City, at the border of Heaven Dou and Star Luo.
There were no preliminary rounds, no separate venues; all participating sects and families had to come to the summit of Douhun Mountain.
This location was quite far from Heaven Dou, Star Luo, and the Spirit Hall, and coupled with the hundreds of feet high Douhun Mountain, no single force could manipulate the competition from here.
Lin Fan looked outside and saw that the Haotian Sect team escorting the seven of them, although not many in number, only a little over a hundred, included Tang Xiao, Tang Hao, Tang Yiran, two Title Douluo elders, five inner court elders, and a large group of battle spirit masters responsible for protecting the Haotian Sect.
Lin Fan couldn't help but ask, "Senior Sister, isn't it dangerous at the summit of Douhun Mountain? Even the Haotian Twin Stars have been mobilized."
Tang Huo'er smiled lightly and said, "There are no soul beasts on Douhun Mountain, no forests to ambush and hide in, and no powerful figures can influence this competition. For the families and sects participating, Douhun Mountain is not dangerous. However, for the participating disciples, this competition is not only about determining the winner but also about life and death. At the summit of Douhun Mountain, even if we are from the Haotian Sect, if we die at the hands of another sect, we have no reason to seek revenge."
"What? Doesn't that mean that some powerful disciples might deliberately kill people on the field?"
Lin Fan felt that this competition was a bit cruel, similar to the Great Douhun Arena.
Tang Huo'er pursed her lips and said, "The disciples from the sects who dare to participate in this Elite Soul Master Competition are not ordinary people. Only sects with grudges or evil soul masters from the Demon Sect would dare to kill. Ordinary sects and families will not truly fight to the death. Although sects cannot retaliate at the top of Douhun Mountain, once they leave Douhun Mountain, all the rules are gone. Every year after descending the mountain, many sects fight each other because of the deaths of their disciples. Sect Master Tang Xiao and Tang Hao personally took action to protect us after descending the mountain."
"I see." Lin Fan nodded, no longer worried, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Senior Sister, how could our Haotian Sect disciples die at the hands of others? We're the ones who kill others."
Tang Huo'er nodded gently, "That's right, our Haotian Team has indeed killed quite a few sect disciples. Last year, especially those two good-for-nothings, Tang Long and Tang Ye, they didn't know their own strength. I also killed five Demon Sect disciples last year. Our Haotian Team can be said to have a blood debt, which is why the Sect Master personally came to protect us. This year, with the four of you, I should be able to relax a bit."
"Demon Sect disciples are also participating? Evil Soul Masters, then they deserve to die."
Lin Fan's expression was cold, recalling how Tang Yiran, Liu Erlong, Shui Yue'er, and Ye Keke were almost injured by the Demon Sect in the Star Dou Forest. They must have assassinated many Soul Masters who came to search for Soul Rings in the Star Dou Forest.
"Alright, then I'll entrust the task of killing Demon Sect disciples this year to you."
Tang Huo'er smiled slightly, her eyelashes long, and her big eyes were very lively and elegant.
This girl is quite remarkable. She possesses immense talent and the strongest weapon spirit in the world, yet she's not arrogant at all.
Lin Fan suddenly realized that as the pride of the Clear Sky Sect, with the terrifying Clear Sky Destruction Wheel spirit, if she were still alive after Tang San's birth, she would definitely have appeared. If she became a Title Douluo, she would undoubtedly be the most powerful Title Douluo in the Clear Sky Sect.
If she had already died by then, who killed her? As the number one member of the Clear Sky Team, who would dare kill her?
This year is Tang Huo'er's last year participating in the Elite Soul Master Competition, and also Bibi Dong's last year participating in the competition.
Could it be that Bibi Dong killed her?
Lin Fan was suddenly shocked. After thinking it over, it seemed that this was the only possibility. After all, in the current continent, apart from the Spirit Hall, no one dared to kill someone from the Clear Sky Sect. Killing her in the Elite Tournament would leave the Clear Sky Sect with no reason to seek revenge.
If he hadn't transmigrated, Tang Huo'er would have died in this tournament.
Tang Huo'er's spirit, the Clear Sky Destruction Wheel, was far more powerful than the Clear Sky Hammer. Bibi Dong wouldn't be her match for a single spirit of the same level.
But Bibi Dong was now cultivating a second spirit. Her two spirits had the same attributes and wouldn't clash. In addition, Lin Fan guessed that she had probably absorbed the Spirit Immunity Skull, possessing powerful spiritual power. If she could seamlessly switch between her two spirits, she would have at least two more ten-thousand-year spirit skills than Tang Huo'er. Bibi Dong had become a Spirit Emperor, and her spirit power was also one level higher than Tang Huo'er's. It seemed that there was no doubt that the Spirit Hall had ordered her to do it. Tang Huo'er would be a huge threat to the Spirit Hall in the future.
"Hey, little brother, what are you staring at my face for?"
Lin Fan was pondering something when Tang Huo'er's words immediately brought him back to his senses.
"Uh, nothing, senior sister is pretty."
Lin Fan gave an awkward laugh and quickly looked away, only to feel Liu Erlong pinch him.
"What are you doing?"
Lin Fan looked at Liu Erlong speechlessly.
Liu Erlong pinched Lin Fan again, her red ponytail swaying, her face showing a mixture of embarrassment and anger. "You're such a flirt! You chatter nonstop whenever you see a pretty older sister, and you haven't spoken to me or Coco the whole way here."
"Uh, no, I was just asking senior sister some questions." Lin Fan said innocently, wondering what had gotten into Liu Erlong all of a sudden.
Tang Huo'er glanced at Lin Fan and Liu Erlong, then chuckled and said, "Little brother, it seems you're quite popular with girls. She must like you, that's why she's jealous of her older sister."
"Ah." Liu Erlong's delicate face flushed instantly, and she quickly said, "No way, senior sister, don't talk nonsense, how could I like this..."
Liu Erlong started to say, but before she could finish, she covered her blushing face with her hands and leaned against Ye Keke.
"Yeah, how could she like me?" Lin Fan had just finished speaking when he saw Liu Erlong's blushing face and Tang Huo'er's ambiguous smile. Lin Fan immediately fell silent, leaned back in the car, and closed his eyes. At a time like this, it was best for him to pretend to be asleep.
"At the summit of Douhun Mountain, rather than venturing into the Spirit Hall teeming with experts, forcibly escaping with Bibi Dong at the gathering place of all the major sects seems better. However, if Qian Xunji and Ghost Chrysanthemum Douluo are still present, it's still a near-death experience."
While feigning sleep, Lin Fan began seriously considering his plan to take Bibi Dong away. Bibi
Dong is forever a goddess; the protagonist only listens to her. By using Xiao Wu's mother, Tang Yuehua… and recruiting a second female lead to help Bibi Dong become the strongest, she will make them kneel and obey.
