"We're about here. Calculating the days, the Desolate Ancient Beast's great tribulation is approaching. Once his Origin falls into a weakened state, that will be our opportunity."
Kai, along with Bibi Dong and the other four, landed on a tall mountain not far from the peak.
The surrounding air was filled with a Chaotic Aura. If it weren't for the Chaos Splitting Axe's Chaotic Aura protecting them, even Titled Douluo might not have been able to endure, especially Dugu Bo, whose spirit power Level was the lowest.
"Is there… really a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast here?"
Ghost Douluo looked around but found no signs of life.
This place was desolate; there wasn't even a single blade of grass.
Bibi Dong closed her eyes, and her vast mental force spread out, sensing the surroundings.
A moment later, Bibi Dong softly said, "It seems we haven't come to the wrong place. The Desolate Ancient Beast is up ahead. The spatial energy in this area is becoming increasingly violent; I fear the great tribulation is about to arrive."
Bibi Dong looked up, and Kai also gazed at the sky. Sure enough, thunder rumbled in the sky, followed by a dazzling white light that descended. Only then did everyone realize it was a strange thundercloud!
The thundercloud emitted powerful fluctuations; even the Titled Douluo felt their hair stand on end.
"Such powerful energy within this thundercloud. Even a Titled Douluo would be severely injured."
Dugu Bo exclaimed.
"Old Poison, do you feel anything unusual around us?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly spoke.
Kai's eyes narrowed slightly. The surrounding Chaotic Aura also became unstable at this moment. Left with no choice, Kai released his four spirit rings, which then stabilized the Chaotic Aura.
"It seems the Desolate Ancient Beast is about to appear. Such a powerful Chaotic Aura is indeed very suitable for my Chaos Splitting Axe."
"I must obtain this hundred thousand year spirit ring."
Kai thought to himself. He hadn't expected Bibi Dong to actually find such a spirit ring for him.
He had originally planned to wait for the System to provide him with a spirit ring.
Now, it seemed to save him some trouble.
"It's coming!"
Bibi Dong said in a deep voice. The group quickly retreated a distance, and then they saw the thundercloud rapidly condense into a heavenly lightning bolt, which, as if tearing through space from the Nine Heavens, slammed down towards the ground below!
Immediately after, a figure appeared—it was the Desolate Ancient Beast they had been searching for.
The Desolate Ancient Beast was enormous. From this angle, it looked somewhat similar to the legendary Qilin.
"This is… a Qilin?" Kai looked at the Desolate Ancient Beast in surprise, and also marveled.
"As expected of a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast. This kind of aura fluctuation is truly formidable. However, looking at him, he doesn't seem to be a match for that heavenly lightning."
At the same time, Kai was also very curious.
Why did this Desolate Ancient Beast have to suffer such a great tribulation every fifty years?
It wasn't like he had violated any heavenly rules!
"Boom!"
At this moment, the Desolate Ancient Beast finally met the formidable heavenly lightning head-on. The instant they collided, a massive force exploded like a time bomb, and waves of fire spread out from the center of the explosion like ripples.
Bibi Dong extended her hand, and the spirit power within her body transformed into a huge barrier, protecting the group.
As the light dissipated, the Desolate Ancient Beast was heavily slammed onto the ground. However, after a struggle, he still stood up and roared at the thundercloud in the sky, seemingly in defiance.
"Roar!"
His roar shook the heavens. The power emanating from the Desolate Ancient Beast seemed even stronger, and his body even erupted with a unique light, with a Chaotic Aura continuously surging forth.
"It's over?" Chrysanthemum Douluo felt puzzled. Was this all there was to the so-called great tribulation of heaven and earth?
"Don't relax. There are three tribulations in total," Bibi Dong reminded.
Everyone was stunned.
That terrifying heavenly lightning was going to strike three times, and from the looks of it, each strike would likely be stronger than the last.
"After the third one ends, that should be our chance to strike, right?" Kai gripped the Chaos Splitting Axe tightly, feeling eager to try.
He knew that although Bibi Dong and the other four could help him control the Desolate Ancient Beast, the final fatal blow would still need to come from him.
After all, even if the Desolate Ancient Beast's Origin was weakened, a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast's dying struggle would be absolutely extraordinary. If they were careless and caused the Desolate Ancient Beast to self-destruct, all their efforts would be in vain.
"Boom!"
The second heavenly lightning bolt then fell. The Desolate Ancient Beast's entire body seemed to transform into lightning, clashing with the heavenly lightning in mid-air. Although the heavenly lightning was eventually defeated, the Desolate Ancient Beast was severely injured and covered in blood.
Soon, the third heavenly lightning began to gather.
Bibi Dong also spoke at this moment, "Prepare to attack. Ghost Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, you two immediately activate the Two Extremes Static Domain. Poison Douluo and I will attack the Desolate Ancient Beast."
"Our abilities are both poison. If our poisons enter his body simultaneously, even if he is a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast, he will not fare well."
After speaking, Bibi Dong then said to Kai, "Little Kai, we will help you control the Desolate Ancient Beast. You seize the opportunity of his severe injury to finish him off completely."
"Holy Son, now you can unleash your second martial soul's Martial Soul Abilities without restraint."
Chrysanthemum Douluo reminded him.
At such a time, the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass Art was clearly the best choice.
Kai had naturally thought of this.
"During the battle later, my Chaotic Aura might not be able to cover you all, so we must act quickly," Kai reminded them.
In an instant, the five summoned their Martial Souls: Bibi Dong's Soul Eating Spider Emperor, plus the Martial Souls of Dugu Bo and the other two. A powerful aura was released, but because the Desolate Ancient Beast was currently fighting the heavenly lightning, he didn't notice the aura emanating from the group.
"Roar!"
With a sky-shattering roar, the third heavenly lightning dissipated.
Blood light filled the sky.
The Desolate Ancient Beast's figure plummeted from the sky. At this moment, his aura rapidly withered, and even his life force quickly weakened. Blood transformed into a bloody rain, scattering down onto the earth.
"Attack."
The moment Bibi Dong gave the order, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo instantly transformed into a streak of light. Their spirit rings fused together, forming a unique, massive Domain in the air. Within this Domain, everything seemed to be static!
"Two Extremes Static Domain!"
The Desolate Ancient Beast was hit by the Two Extremes Static Domain, and his body solidified in mid-air. Immediately after, Bibi Dong and Dugu Bo attacked. The poison power within their bodies was instantly released, transforming into an immense amount of energy that flew towards the Desolate Ancient Beast.
