Douro Continent

Chapter 708 The Final Battle

Bibi Dong could hardly believe her eyes. In just three days, both she and Qian Renxue had fully recovered their strength thanks to their powerful divine abilities. However, she never expected to see Tang San again on this battlefield. The Sea God, who should have been annihilated.

"I knew he wouldn't die so easily." For some reason, seeing Tang San again gave Qian Renxue a feeling of relief.

Far away in front of the Spirit Empire's camp, Hu Liena, who seemed to have lost her soul, trembled with excitement when she saw the blue figure. He... he hadn't died; he had returned.

"Surprised, aren't you?" Tang San smiled calmly. He seemed to have forgotten his tragic death at the hands of Bibi Dong three days ago. Neither Bibi Dong nor Qian Renxue were wearing their divine attribute sets, because they did not expect that the Heaven Dou Empire would have any forces capable of resisting them.

Bibi Dong snorted coldly, "So what if it was an accident? We can kill you once, and we can kill you a second time. It seems I was careless. I should have completely erased your body from this world back then. I just didn't expect that your shattered soul would have a chance to reunite. I always thought you were very smart, but now it seems I was wrong. If I were you, I would never appear on the battlefield again."

Tang San smiled elegantly, as if he had returned to the way he was when he first walked out of Yuexuan. "Unfortunately, you are not me. Therefore, I will not make the same choice as you. Are you still wondering why I didn't hide inside Jialing Pass and ambush you when you went deeper, right?"

Bibi Dong's expression changed. "You can see right through my heart?"

Tang San shook his head. "No. I cannot see through the heart of a god, even though the evil aura emanating from you taints the word 'god.' I only understand your dark thoughts. The reason I didn't ambush you is because I didn't want my enlightened soul to be tainted by filth. If that were the case, I probably wouldn't even be able to defeat one of you. But now it's different. You are about to face a Sea God at his peak. Perhaps I will die, but I will definitely take you all with me as we leave this world."

Bibi Dong laughed, but with her current appearance, her laughter was truly unappealing. "Tang San, are you trying to demoralize me? So what if you've reached your peak? Do you think you can fight me like this? In that case, I'll show you what the true power of the Rakshasa God is."

A purplish-black aura surged forth, and Bibi Dong swayed, a flash of purple light appearing in mid-air as two identical bodies materialized. The Rakshasa Divine Armor instantly materialized, and terrifying purplish-black divine power spread out, obscuring the morning sun and darkening the entire sky in an instant.

At the same moment, the dazzling angelic armor was donned over Qian Renxue's body. Her gaze had turned cold. "Last time, she killed you. This time, it must be me who kills you, and only me."

Faced with the simultaneous release of divine armor by two deities, under immense pressure, streams of blue energy erupted from Tang San's body, swirling around him with specks of blue starlight. The Sea God's Divine Armor silently appeared, but this time it appeared directly in gold, no longer requiring the Golden Trident to transform. Tang San's actions proved to the mother and daughter before him that everything he had said earlier was not empty words.

The Rakshasa Demon Scythe and the Angelic Holy Sword both pointed at Tang San, while Tang San slowly raised the Trident of the Sea God above his head. His gaze was filled with pious light as he stared at the Trident of the Sea God in his hand, his divine sense instantly spreading out like a boundless sea.

Both Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue sensed a faint aura of emptiness emanating from Tang San. He was clearly there, without even exerting any pressure on them through his Sea God power, yet their divine souls seemed to be suppressed by something, preventing their divine senses from fully integrating with their own divine power.

Bibi Dong understood that Tang San was not exaggerating; in terms of cultivation level, he had indeed surpassed both her and Qian Renxue.

The eight wings of the Sea God behind Tang San also underwent a change. The four wings on each side merged, transforming the original eight wings into two enormous golden wings that almost completely covered Tang San's back. The moment those enormous wings unfolded, the sky, previously purplish-black by the Rakshasa God's energy, instantly returned to blue. Endless blue light seemed to fill the entire sky. As Tang San looked devoutly at the golden trident, he had already uttered a call—a call to the power of the sea. This blue light originated from the power of the ocean.

The sky remained blue, but the sun was gone. The immense power of the sea god had forcibly blocked the sun's rays. In that instant, Qian Renxue's angelic divine armor noticeably dimmed.

Bibi Dong moved first. Her two transformed figures instantly created two long purple shadows, and an overwhelming evil aura surged upwards, engulfing Tang San's body. The immense evil aura seemed to completely devour Tang San and the blue sky above.

Although Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong were at odds, she knew that without her help, Bibi Dong would have a hard time defeating Tang San. Unifying the continent wasn't just Bibi Dong's idea; it was also her grandfather's dying wish. She absolutely could not disobey it.

Body and sword as one, Qian Renxue merged with the Angelic Holy Sword in her hand, transforming into a massive golden longsword that charged towards Tang San from the front. The mother and daughter's seamless coordination instantly completed a three-way encirclement attack. Clearly, after several strikes, Qian Renxue had gained a completely new understanding of controlling angelic divine power.

Facing their attacks, Tang San showed no fear. Compared to three days ago, he was much more composed. A cold gaze lingered in his eyes. His golden trident subtly rose, and rings of golden light floated out, heading straight for Qian Renxue in front of him. At the same time, Tang San swayed in mid-air, creating two figures. Ignoring the effects of the golden lights, his two clones met Bibi Dong's attacks from both sides.

With a whoosh, the Angelic Holy Sword in Qian Renxue's hand trembled violently. An indescribable feeling instantly spread throughout her body. Qian Renxue clearly realized that her body had lost the ability to move and could only remain suspended in mid-air in the shape of an impact.

Under normal circumstances, she could try to break through the constraints using the power of the sun's true fire, but at this moment, she couldn't access sunlight at all. Furthermore, breaking through the constraints with her own energy wouldn't be something that could be done instantly.

In the "Unpredictable Storm," Tang San used the first move of the Golden Thirteen Halberds to trap a god for the first time. This was a testament to his power, given that his cultivation and divine strength had surpassed Qian Renxue's. If Bibi Dong hadn't been there, and he could have faced Qian Renxue with full concentration, he wouldn't have needed to shield her from the sunlight to succeed. Of course, the "Unpredictable Storm" couldn't freeze Qian Renxue for eight seconds; at most, it would only hold her for a single breath. But for Tang San, that was enough.

The Trident of Poseidon met the Rakshasa Scythe. With a resounding clang, the trident blade locked tightly against the scythe, and Tang San and Bibi Dong's separated figures faced off. Golden light and purplish-black light burst forth almost simultaneously.

The trident, as a weapon, is inherently effective against most weapons, and the scythe is no exception, as it can lock onto the opponent's weapon. At this moment, Tang San and Bibi Dong's two figures are, in one, their true forms, and in the other, formed by their divine-level martial souls. Only those who possess twin martial souls have such power.

However, the actual situation was beyond the expectations of all the spectators. It seemed that the Golden Trident had locked onto the Rakshasa Scythe, but in the next moment, the situation reversed.

Two beams of golden light shot into the sky, and the golden trident was directly pierced into the high sky, rising like two golden dragons and flying diagonally out.

Bibi Dong sneered inwardly. "Tang San, oh Tang San, yes, your divine soul is indeed stronger than mine, but I, who only received the inheritance at level ninety-nine, possess far greater divine power. Now let's see how you contend with me."

The purplish-black demonic scythe once again hurtled towards Tang San's chest. Based on the experience from three days ago, there was no doubt that the Sea God Armor could not withstand this terrifying attack from the divine weapon.

The moment the golden trident flew out, Tang San's body seemed to be propelled by inertia, spinning rapidly. Both sides of his body made the same movements, and in that rapid spin, he actually dodged Bibi Dong's first attack.

Bibi Dong reacted with incredible speed. Missing her initial strike with the Demonic Scythe, she immediately switched to a sweeping motion, slashing at Tang San's waist. At that very moment, tiny specks of golden light suddenly shot out from each of Tang San's two spinning bodies. They looked like tiny droplets of water, each heading towards Bibi Dong's two bodies.

Almost instinctively, Bibi Dong raised her other hand to catch the drop of golden light. Meanwhile, the demonic scythe in her hand continued its relentless slash towards Tang San.

"Careful, don't catch it!" Qian Renxue finally regained her mobility. Seeing the two golden lights flying towards Bibi Dong, she almost instinctively roared. In an instant, her body rushed to Bibi Dong's side, forcefully slamming Bibi Dong's body away with her shoulder. The one she chose was Bibi Dong's true form, not the one formed from her martial soul.

Even Qian Renxue herself didn't understand why she did it. In that instant, all she could think of was the image of Bibi Dong appearing in her mind during her process of becoming a god. All of this was out of instinct.

With a soft hiss, another figure of Bibi Dong, formed from a martial spirit, materialized in mid-air. A small hole appeared in her raised hand, and a point of golden light silently imprinted itself between her eyebrows. The head of Bibi Dong's body instantly turned golden. The next moment, with a deafening roar, it exploded into pieces.

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong's true form was struck by Qian Renxue, and the golden light flew past her face, almost grazing her head. Like scissors, it swept up a patch of long golden hair. Qian Renxue narrowly escaped being hit.

A chill ran through her entire body. Bibi Dong suddenly grabbed Qian Renxue with one hand and pulled her back a thousand meters in a flash.

She couldn't believe it was real. Just a moment ago, she had clearly felt the threat of death. You see, although her body, separated from her martial spirit, was formed from divine power and soul, it was no different from her original body—its attack and defense capabilities were exactly the same. If Qian Renxue had arrived even a second later, or hadn't knocked her away, without a doubt, her original body would have suffered the same fate as the body formed from her martial spirit—annihilated in mid-air.

A golden light shone as the two Tang Sans merged into one. A huge gash appeared on Tang San's Sea God Armor waist armor. Although the skin underneath was not broken, it was glowing with purple energy, clearly indicating that it had been corrupted by the evil power of the Rakshasa God.

Gazing at the bewildered Bibi Dong in the distance, Tang San sighed, "Blood is thicker than water. I still overlooked family ties. She is, after all, your daughter! I originally thought she would use this opportunity to attack me. If you die, I die, then this world should belong to her. Qian Renxue, you made my judgment wrong."

Tang San appeared nonchalant, but everything that had happened before was precisely predicted by him, even Qian Renxue's final attack. His Unpredictable Storm technique had been flawless in judging the timing of Qian Renxue's attack. He knew very well that the relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong was extremely hostile, even to the point of life-or-death struggle. His rapidly spinning body undoubtedly minimized the damage from the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, and at the same time, what he unleashed was Guanyin Tears, formed from divine power. The Sea God never lacked water, and Tang San's two drops of Guanyin Tears were the essence of water, condensed from his entire body's divine power—how could they be so easily resisted? Qian Renxue had suffered greatly from this before, which was why she recognized it at a glance.

If Qian Renxue had attacked Tang San at that time, Tang San could not only have perfectly killed Bibi Dong, but he also had a backup plan: his soul and physical body could transform into each other, something Bibi Dong couldn't do. Tang San's Unpredictable Storm could only imprison Qian Renxue for that one breath, as long as Qian Renxue didn't rescue Bibi Dong and attack his physical body. Then, the result would have been Bibi Dong's death, Tang San's martial soul transformation broken, and although his strength greatly reduced, facing Qian Renxue, who was clearly inferior to Bibi Dong, and who had planted the seed of defeat in his heart, he would have a great chance, at least a chance of mutual destruction.

But all of this was ruined by Qian Renxue's instinctive reaction. While Bibi Dong was indeed weakened by the destruction of her Martial Soul Body, Tang San's divine power had also significantly decreased after releasing the Divine-level Guanyin Tears twice, and the injury to his waist would further hinder his ability to exert his divine power. Undoubtedly, neither side gained a significant advantage, and Tang San's injury while fighting two opponents was undoubtedly a major disadvantage.

The two figures merged into one. Tang San transferred the Trident of the Sea God to his left hand, and with his right hand, he wiped away the divine power of the Rakshasa God from the wound on his waist. The enormous wings on his back unfolded, and a portion of the dense blue light in mid-air immediately separated from the wings and merged into his body.

Bibi Dong's dark purple aura noticeably dimmed, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at Qian Renxue beside her.

"you……"

Qian Renxue ignored Bibi Dong's gaze, staring intently in Tang San's direction. "We can't give him any chance; he's too cunning. We must use the purest energy collision attack to avoid falling into his trap as much as possible."

"Hmm." Surprisingly, this time Bibi Dong did not refute Qian Renxue's words. Of course, it was not because Qian Renxue had just saved her that she had such a drastic psychological change. It was just that looking at the beautiful daughter in front of her, an unprecedented feeling arose in her heart. For many years, no matter what she did, her heart was always surrounded by coldness. But just now, after Qian Renxue pushed her away, Bibi Dong found that a warm current flowed into her cold heart.

Boom—! A purplish-black light and a golden-red light erupted almost simultaneously. Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue stood side by side, not rushing to attack, but instead unleashing their powerful divine senses. The immense pressure made all the soldiers and officers on the Jialing Pass side feel breathless.

Tang San clearly saw countless purplish-black streams of energy converging on Bibi Dong's body from all directions, indicating that she was recovering her strength. These purplish-black streams were all the resentment from the Douluo Continent. Among them, the purplish-black light emanating from Jialing Pass was the most immense. That was the vengeful spirit of those who had perished tragically under the Poison Douluo's deadly poison during the great battle three days ago.

Just as the sea god draws power from the ocean and the angel god draws the sun's true fire from the sun, the Rakshasa god can also draw upon the darkest and most sordid thoughts of all beings, whether living or dead. These thoughts then coalesce into the Rakshasa god's divine power.

These resentments were far greater than any belief, but they couldn't last. However, for a battle, these resentments were clearly far more powerful. As the saying goes, "too much clarity leaves no room for fish," especially since a large number of warriors had just died at Jialing Pass a few days prior. The resentment of the Martial Soul Empire's soldiers who had perished from the deadly poison was unimaginable. At this moment, Jialing Pass undoubtedly became Bibi Dong's best battlefield.

Tang San knew perfectly well how disadvantageous it would be for him to restore Bibi Dong, but he couldn't act rashly. At this moment, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue stood there; although their divine powers were incompatible, their divine wills were tightly intertwined. A single move could affect the entire situation; if he dared to attack, he would inevitably face a joint counterattack from Bibi Dong and her daughter. The fact that the two gods had truly united was the last thing Tang San wanted to see. Without defeating them one by one, he would have no chance. The current situation was something Tang San hadn't anticipated at all; it was all because of Qian Renxue's instinctive rescue, born of blood ties, which had put Tang San in a completely passive position.

The eight Rakshasa Demon Scythes on her back instantly flew out, merging with the demon scythes in her hands. Bibi Dong's gaze remained fixed on Tang San, but the Rakshasa Demon Scythes in her hands suddenly flew into the sky. A surge of purplish-black light erupted instantly, and powerful evil intent bared its fangs and claws in the air like a celestial demon.

The blue light barrier that Tang San had condensed in the air trembled violently. The power of the Rakshasa God was indeed very oppressive to most gods, and its evil intent was far more terrifying than the assimilative power of the angels. Once tainted, it would require a vast amount of divine power to expel it.

Tang San sighed inwardly, his enormous wings flapping behind him. Blue light cascaded down from the sky like a silver river falling from the heavens, merging into his body. Instantly, his radiance burst forth once more, as if he hadn't expended any energy at all. However, the sun, which had been obscured, reappeared in the sky.

Bibi Dong had achieved her goal. The immense resentment and power of the Rakshasa were instantly reclaimed and integrated into her body, as being baked by the sun would be detrimental to her divine power. As the sunlight shone brightly, Qian Renxue was immediately invigorated. She glanced at Bibi Dong, pointed her Angelic Holy Sword diagonally into the sky, and surging solar fire poured down. The magnificent golden-red patterns on her Angelic Divine Armor reappeared in full force once again.

Tang San's hand instinctively tightened around the Trident of the Sea God, a faint sense of despair spreading through his heart. He knew that his chances were dwindling. The only thing he could leverage—the conflict between the mother and daughter—seemed to have vanished. When two gods truly set aside their prejudices and deliberately cooperated, how could he possibly stand against them alone?

Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue began to move. They flew forward slowly, even slower than an ordinary flying-type Soul Master. However, the energy emanating from their bodies spread out in a tangible way, pressing forward little by little.

The divine power of the Angel God and the Rakshasa God converged and slowly pressed forward under these circumstances, with only one purpose: to give Tang San no chance to turn the tide. The divine pressure was completely concentrated on Tang San, and their divine senses were each contained within themselves. Once activated, it would be a thunderous strike.

Tang San's wings flapped incessantly, undergoing another evolution that granted them even greater absorption capabilities, stemming from the Eight Spider Lances. Visible blue light spots in the air continuously merged into Tang San's golden body, and every golden pattern on the Sea God's Armor shone with dazzling brilliance.

Ripples spread across the golden trident, and golden light began to emanate from Tang San's body—a sign that his divine power was too overwhelming for him to fully bear. However, his body was slowly retreating, uncontrollably pushed back by the immense pressure of the combined divine power of the Angel God and Rakshasa God before him.

At the top of Jialing Pass, everyone's hearts were in their throats. They seemed to see the scene from three days ago about to repeat itself. Although Tang San was more composed than he was three days ago, they could also clearly see that Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue were no longer fighting alone. Instead, they were truly joining forces to fight against Tang San.

The master closed his eyes in anguish. He hated himself for not having the strength to help Tang San. Xue Beng's eyes widened, his fists clenched, and his brows furrowed with intense resentment.

On the city wall, only one person remained calm: Xiao Wu. As if she had anticipated the situation, she pulled out a pink sausage and slowly swallowed it. Gentle energy fluctuations began to gather a pair of transparent wings behind her. These were Oscar's Rapid Flight Mushroom Sausages.

"Hey—" Tang San shouted, his trident of the Sea God suddenly drawing a cross shape in front of him. The powerful Sea God's divine power burst forth under the immense pressure, finally stabilizing his body in mid-air. He could not retreat any further. If he retreated any further, he would be pushed back to the top of Jialing Pass. At that point, if he could not withstand the attacks of the two gods in front of him, the entire Jialing Pass would be exposed to the aftershocks of the collision between three god-level powerhouses.

Faced with the immense divine power formed by the combined might of the Angel God and the Rakshasa God, he had no other choice. The eight words "Better to die a glorious death than live a shameful life" resurfaced in Tang San's mind.

The originally gentle power of the Sea God suddenly erupted, transforming into a huge golden flame that rose around his body. Of course, it was not real flame, but rather a sign that Tang San's own divine power had expanded to its extreme.

The Trident of Poseidon was placed in his left hand, and the Poseidon Armor on his left arm instantly shone brightly, radiating light and making the golden trident seem to have completely merged with his left arm. At the same time, Tang San raised his right hand, and golden light gathered in his palm.

With a low roar, Tang San's body shot out like an arrow. Under the immense pressure of a god, neither he nor the two gods opposite him could reach the speed of instantaneous teleportation. The violent collision of their three god domains made the air extremely viscous. Relying on the golden flames burning within him, Tang San forcefully broke through the resistance in front of him. His eyes shone like stars as he headed straight for Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong.

Qian Renxue gripped the Angelic Holy Sword with both hands, and the True Fire of the Sun erupted violently. The golden-red flames merged into the Angelic Holy Sword, pointing it forward at Tang San. The surging and scorching energy exploded completely in mid-air.

Bibi Dong's enormous demonic scythe also ignited at this moment, but what burned was endless resentment and evil energy; the flames were green. The mother and daughter accelerated simultaneously, heading towards Tang San. What they wanted was this most direct, head-on clash.

The distance between them was closing, and Tang San's expression became as cold as an ancient glacier. His mind was now immersed in a special state, becoming incredibly calm. Only in this way could he possibly seize any opportunity that might arise at any moment.

The Rakshasa Scythe, wreathed in a ghastly green flame, and the Angelic Holy Sword, blazing with golden-red flames, clashed head-on almost simultaneously. Qian Renxue made an upward thrust, while Bibi Dong's scythe slashed downwards to meet it, creating a combined attack from above and below. The three gods collided completely in that instant.

Tang San raised the Sea God Trident with all his might in his left hand, while his right hand flicked out a point of golden light directly towards Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue was startled. Tang San's Guanyin Tears had left a deep impression on her, especially the divine Guanyin Tears that had almost killed Bibi Dong. When it was released, not a single bit of divine power was leaked out, otherwise Bibi Dong would not have fallen for it.

With a deafening roar, Bibi Dong's Rakshasa Demon Scythe and Tang San's Sea God Trident clashed. Golden flames and the ghastly green flames erupted simultaneously, transforming into countless points of light that scattered in the air. Qian Renxue, however, had no choice but to turn her Angelic Holy Sword around, holding it horizontally in front of her, unleashing her full power of True Solar Fire to annihilate that single point of golden light.

Tang San's ability to create opportunities is truly remarkable. Even when facing the assassination attempts of two gods, he still managed to create this fleeting opportunity through his formidable strength.

Bibi Dong's Rakshasa Scythe was completely swung away by his Trident of the Sea God, leaving her chest wide open. And the golden light that his right hand flicked out disappeared the moment it touched Qian Renxue's True Sun Fire.

Oh no, we've been tricked! Qian Renxue realized immediately. But at that moment, Bibi Dong's chest was completely exposed.

This was Tang San's risky move. He concentrated all his divine power into the Golden Trident, and added the gravity control ability of his left arm, increasing the weight of the Golden Trident tenfold to over a million jin. Although Bibi Dong was also attacking with all her might, how could she have imagined that Tang San would completely neglect Qian Renxue's defenses and instead concentrate his attack on her alone? The Rakshasa Demon Scythe was swung around, immediately revealing a huge opening.

Tang San exploited Qian Renxue's fear of him. Even though she knew she might unleash a fake Guanyin Tear, she would still instinctively choose to defend herself. Otherwise, if her Angelic Holy Sword attacked him recklessly, Tang San would already be pierced through. Forced into a corner, Tang San now used a special fighting technique taught to him by his master, a style he had never used before, called the Steel Wire Style. The Steel Wire Style, which could collapse at any moment, was also the Steel Wire Style that maximized his combat power.

Qian Renxue's reaction was incredibly fast. As soon as she realized she had been tricked, she immediately drew her Angelic Holy Sword and slashed it straight at Tang San's chest.

As Tang San swung his Sea God Trident away from Bibi Dong's Rakshasa Demon Scythe, his left hand pressed forward, and the hilt of the golden trident struck Bibi Dong's chest armor. At the same time, his right hand swung in a circle, and with a loud dragon's roar, a golden dragon suddenly burst forth from Tang San's right shoulder armor.

In an instant, the golden dragon was pulverized by the Solar True Fire on the Angelic Holy Sword, but it also slowed Qian Renxue's movements by a fraction. The Angelic Holy Sword failed to pierce Tang San, instead striking him horizontally at the waist, precisely where Bibi Dong had previously left her wound.

Tang San let out a muffled groan, his body swaying away as if he had been whipped. On the other side, Bibi Dong, who had been struck by Tang San's golden trident, exploded with a bang, turning into countless purple-black streams of energy that rippled in mid-air.

As Tang San's body soared into the air, the purplish-black energy condensed again. The Rakshasa Demon Scythe had not yet returned to Bibi Dong's hand, and her expression turned extremely ugly. She clenched her fists and swung them at Tang San. A huge purplish-black ball of light caught up with Tang San's body in mid-air and, with a deafening roar, slammed into him, sending him flying straight towards Jialing Pass.

Tang San's plan and response were undoubtedly flawless, but he was facing two gods after all! At the crucial moment, Bibi Dong used her immortal body, a technique she had mastered when she was still a Soul Master, forcefully converting her body into energy to dodge Tang San's powerful attack from the Sea God's Trident. Of course, she couldn't escape the bombardment of the Sea God's divine power, but she at least avoided the million-pound physical attack of the Sea God's Trident.

This is the third-to-last chapter of Douluo Continent. Two more chapters are left, and this year-long project will be complete. I've poured so much effort into Douluo Continent, and so many readers have accompanied me along the way. I checked yesterday, and Douluo Continent started uploading on December 14th, 2008, and ended on December 13th of this year—a full year! Three hundred and sixty-five days and nights spent with you all—it feels so good. I believe Douluo Continent has brought you all joy. Regardless of your final feelings about Douluo Continent, whether you think my writing is good or bad, I implore you all to cast your monthly votes for Douluo Continent one last time. Even though I know we can't possibly take the top spot this month like before, seeing Douluo Continent, which I've worked so hard on for a year and which has accompanied readers for a year, slip so quickly from the monthly vote rankings still makes me feel a little uncomfortable. How many years does one have in a lifetime? For the sake of Douluo Continent's companionship, please give it one last bit of support. Around 2 PM today was the last time Douluo Continent would be featured on the official website. This can be considered Xiao San's closing remarks.

My new book, *Yin Yang Crown*, has been released! For those who haven't yet added it to their collections, please do so. After finishing *Douluo Continent*, I will dedicate all my energy to creating *Yin Yang Crown*. It features a completely new setting, a fantasy world entirely different from *Douluo Continent*. I hope you will continue to support me, and I will continue to provide seamless updates to accompany you through another spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Believe me, I have never broken my word. Regardless of my character, it's all for the sake of every single day and night I've dedicated myself to these past six years.
