Chapter 2: Meeting Bibi Dong
The group rushed toward the Spirit City, only stopping to buy necessities for Vaiss. Like milk and diapers. The two titled douluos alternate between driving and resting so they could travel without stopping.
For the next three days, Yue Guan and Ghost, the two single dogs, felt the difficulty of raising a baby deeply. The frequent crying, feeding, and diaper change, made the two titled douluos tired.
But on the way, they discovered something extraordinary, they realized Vaiss was emitting energy all the time and it was purer than spirit power in the air. Thanks to it, they can maintain speed without any burden and even raise their cultivation a little. Three days later the group arrived at Spirit City.
As for Vaiss, he already knew who Yue Guan and Ghost were and where they were headed. He didn't have a problem with it, the moment he received the package, he already planned to join Spirit Hall.
As a traveler who watches the original work, he knew just how important the Spirit Hall was to the commoner of this world. When he first watched the douluo anime, he only felt that Tang San was a little hypocritical and selfish but he didn't care about it.
At the time, he was more interested in the many beautiful characters like Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue. Seriously, the one making the model should be given a pay rise and promotion. But after reading douluo 2, he realized just how much of a scourge Tang San was.
When he first read douluo 2, he was surprised the world setting had become very dark. Evil spirit masters kill freely, and the sect and noble suppress the commoners and the invasion of the Sun Moon continent. He was a little baffled, and after reading the comic and searching the internet, he knew the cause of the setting.
The whole continent was plunged into a dark time because of Tang San. He first destroyed Slaughter Capital, the prison for evil spirit masters.
In douluo 1, this place was said to be a paradise for evil spirit masters. Where they can do anything they want. While in fact, it was a prison, because once they go in, getting out was almost impossible.
The Spirit Hall used the Slaughter Capital as a prison and the evil spirit masters who were lucky enough to evade the Spirit Hall hunt would run there.
Without Slaughter Capital, the evil spirit masters would disperse and hide in another place, making it harder to find them and giving them time to grow.
Tang San also destroyed the Spirit Hall, this move affected the whole continent deeply, especially the commoners. Without the Spirit Hall, the evil spirit masters lost their biggest pressure and the commoners lost their backing.
The evil spirit masters roamed freely, and while there was suppression from other forces, it was not as thorough as Spirit Hall. The nobles and sects lost their restraint and treat the commoners as toys and slaves. Not knowing that their actions created more evil spirit masters, or maybe they knew but just didn't care.
While these were happening, Tang San and his friends, the cause of this chaos, didn't care. Even in douluo 2, Tang San said he was the enforcer of the law of the god domain and yet, he broke the rule of not interfering directly with the douluo continent. The guy was shameless and double-faced to the max.
Reading douluo 2 and the speculation and proof on the internet, made Vaiss don't know whether to strangle or applaud the author. But who knew that he would travel to the douluo world and also receive a sky-defying package?
Vaiss was confident that when he grew up, even if the whole god realm turned into his enemy, he could crush them alone.
Vaiss looked at the panel that only he could see.
Name: Vaiss
Martial Soul: Ultraman Vaiss (Unawakened), Dawn Breaker (Unawakened)
Bloodline: Ultra
Personal Talents: Item Creation lv0 Space Mastery lv0 Blazing Sun Heart lv0
Race Talents: Body Of Light lv0
Skills: Tyrant Body lv0
Equipment: Myriad Aegis lv0
Special Skills: BGM Player lvmax Identification Technique lvMax Peerless Appearance lvMax
Points: 0
Such a luxurious lineup, Vaiss never tired of seeing it. This was the panel of the points system given by the package. Its function was to give the host points and the points can be used to trade for commodities in the system mall and points could also be used to upgrade. As for how to earn points, Vaiss hadn't figured it out. The system only said to explore for himself.
As for the special skills column, the name already told the function of the skills. And he was very satisfied with the last skill. After all, who could refuse to be handsome?
The Ultraman Vaiss martial soul was the product of Vaiss's Ultra bloodline, for the name, it just makes sense to use his name. While the Dawn Breaker martial soul came as a bit of a surprise to Vaiss.
This was a custom-made model of a sci-fi magic ship, he had it made after he watched the Arpeggio of Blue Steel anime. The model of I-401 Ars Nova was so cool, it made him want to make one for himself.
He designed Dawn Breaker with his friend, he drew inspiration from I-401 Ars Nova and Captain Harlock Arcadia 2013. He remembered he hanged Dawn Breaker in his kitchen, so he could admire it every day. So, when the gas blew up, the Dawn Breaker traveled with him and became his martial soul.
Looking at his twin martial souls, he smiled. What Clear Sky Hammer? What Blue Silver Emperor? What Shura Sword? Have you seen a wide shot from ultraman? Have you seen a barrage from twelve energy main guns?
If he couldn't defeat Tang San with his twin martial soul, he should just kill himself. Not to mention, the inheritance from the Ultra package. It contained the knowledge and experience of the whole Ultra race.
And the Ultra race in the package was a true universe and dimension-traveling warrior clan and has been strengthened by the system multiple times.
There were many things in the inheritance, it was like having a giant library in your head. It also didn't just record the Ultra civilization, there were also records from different civilizations. It contained all kinds of knowledge from laws, blueprints, spells, songs, and even bizarre cooking recipes and ingredients.
In the long history of traveling and helping the weak, the Ultra learned everything about every race and civilization they encountered. Then they tried to adapt it to fit the Ultra race. Hence the enormous amount of knowledge was divided into two, one side was Ultra and adapted knowledge, and the other was the original civilizations' knowledge.
And now, all of their knowledge was crammed inside Vaiss' brain. Looking at the various power systems, Vaiss was greedy and wanted to try them all but he soon regained his mind.
The knowledge in his mind told him while having multiple power systems was possible, it would only be half-assed and create many drosses. It was best to stick with two power systems or at max three with the Ultra power system being the main one.
So, Vaiss chose the Tyrant Body. It was an Ultra race body technique created to greatly increase body performance. Training the technique would make his body the ultimate spear and shield. But unfortunately, he will only be able to start training when he is three years old.
After all, he needed to be able to move his body to start training. And training too young would only cause a dark wound.
It was something Vaiss chose after looking at his talents since his talents were geared toward strengthening the power of the body. The description of his talents was like this.
Item Creation is a creation type skill. What can be created depends on the host's strength and talent level.
Space Mastery lets the host master the power of space. The higher the level, the better the host's control and strength over space.
Myriad Aegis is the host's natal weapon. It had the power to create a tangible phantom of various types of weapons. With a level increase, the weapon amount, type, and power increase. The aegis defense power also increases.
Blazing Sun Heart is like the name, the host's heart is like the sun itself. It can contain enormous amounts of energy and vitality and has incredible energy and vitality-generating capability without any external input. The excess released outside the body can be absorbed by others and have a great effect on purifying filth, whether it is poison or negative influence, or emotion. The higher the level, the bigger the volume and quality of the energy and vitality, and the faster it can produce it.
Body Of Light is a talent of the mind and soul. It syncs the mind and soul with the body, any mind/soul attack needs to destroy the host's physical body before it can attack the mind/soul. It provides great resistance and defense against dark and evil influences or mind/soul attacks and greatly increases mind/soul power. Can make light with great healing and purifying effects. The higher the level, the stronger the effect.
His talents pushed Vaiss in the direction of a tireless warrior priest. And the Item Creation talent gave him an idea of how to change the doomed fate of both soul beasts and spiritual masters. But it was still too far away.
For now, Vaiss would focus on growing happily as a baby. Ask anyone and they will say childhood was the best time of their life. Such a rare chance, Vaiss would never let it go to waste.
Besides, it was fine to act like a genius but too much and you would end up being treated as a monster. Vaiss had the capital to take it easy and he would.
So in the three days, he only tried to behave on the first day and let go after that. Holding back his instinct as a baby was just too uncomfortable. And frankly, being spoiled and treated so gently by the beautiful female spirit master felt too good.
It was a bit embarrassing at first but then Vaiss enjoyed it. He is a baby, what is wrong with being taken care of? Baby's job is to eat, shit, sleep, cry, and act cute.
Vaiss laughed in the arms of the female spirit master, clutching her finger, trying to put it inside his mouth.
"No, it's dirty."
The female spirit master gently released her finger from Vaiss's hand and scratched his tummy. Vaiss laughed more and tapped her hand with both hands.
The combination of Yue Guan and Ghost bringing the baby crib and the female spirit master holding Vaiss to the Pope Palace was too bizarre and attracted many eyes.
The three walked unimpeded, straight toward the Pope's hall. Midway, Yue Guan separated and went to the Douluo Palace. Such a big thing, the pope and big offering should be informed and decide what to do.
Vaiss looked around curiously. Such an extravagant building, the famous hotel in his past life was nothing compared to this. Everyone who went past them was fascinated when they saw Vaiss.
Vaiss already used to this, the Peerless Appearance lvMax was nothing to scoff at. When they arrived at the Pope's Hall gate, the knight guarding the gate informed Bibi Dong in the hall through a spirit tool.
"Come in."
After a few minutes, a cold and indifferent voice sounded. The gate knight also opened the gate. Ghost and the female spirit master tidied up the clothes and entered, the gate behind the slowly closed.
The female spirit master was nervous and excited, to think that she could have an audience with the pope. This was unthinkable for an ordinary Spirit Hall member like her. But Vaiss was more excited than the female spirit master.
Bibi Dong! She was one of the most beautiful women in Douluo's world! In his past life, he could only see her behind the screen but now he could see her in the flesh! How could Vaiss not be excited?
The two walked slowly and stopped in front of the stairs leading to the throne. Ghost put down the baby's crib beside him and kneeled on one knee, the female spirit master followed him.
"We see the Pope!'
"Um."
On the throne, a woman with perfect features sat. Wearing Pope's robe and headdress, her vibrant rose-pink hair looked soft and silky, and her indifferent sharp pink eyes looked at the three below. Straight nose, cherry red small mouth, skin like white jade, plump breast, narrow waist, and slender long legs.
Vaiss stared at Bibi Dong, he was captivated by Bibi Dong's beauty. He already felt the animation Bibi Dong was a beauty but now seeing her in the flesh, he felt no words could describe her.
Bibi Dong crossed her legs and noticed Vaiss who was staring at her. What a cute baby! Not even Bibi Dong could resist his charm. But as expected of a level 98 titled douluo, she was only surprised a little and returned to normal. But she still took a peek at Vaiss from time to time.
She was a little curious about who Vaiss was and why Ghost took him to her. She also felt something familiar from him.
"Report."
"Yes, pope. As ordered, we were hunting the Blood cult when…"
Ghost reported what he knew and the story told by other members of the Spirit Hall. Listening to the report, Bibi Dong's expression turned serious, especially about Father of Ultra's appearance.
She vividly remembered a few days ago when suddenly she was suppressed heavily. It was like a mountain trying to crush her underneath. But when she was suppressed, she also felt herself being purified. The dark emotions, hatred, and chaotic spirit power slowly melted.
When the suppression disappeared, she felt refreshed. Like a heavy burden fell. Although only just a few of the dark things got purified, it was already good enough for her. It was not something she could do anything about after all.
One was the influence of the Rakshasa divine power and one was the result of devouring Qian Xunji.
Afterward, she immediately ordered to find the source of the suppression and investigate thoroughly. She wanted to know who caused it and see if she could ask them to purify her again.
But she never thought that before the people she sent out came back, Ghost came back with someone related to the source of the suppression.
"Is this true?"
Bibi Dong became serious, she stared at Vaiss. Is this baby related to that giant?
"Subordinate dare not to deceive the pope. The one beside subordinate is one of the people who saw the giant."
Ghost saluted.
"Subordinate swears everything was true!"
The female spirit master quickly said. Bibi Dong looked deeply at the female spirit master, she was still confident in her ability to read people, and she knew the female spirit master didn't lie.
Bibi Dong tapped her fingers on the throne. She could hardly believe it but the truth was in front of her. She glanced at Vaiss who was still staring at her. Now Vaiss already returned to normal, he smiled and laughed at her. Vaiss tried his best to act cute, he held out his hand to her as if asking for a hug.
Bibi Dong felt her cold heart beat a little, who can stand such a cute display? A corner of her mouth faintly rose. She actually hated babies because they reminded her of her dark past but she somehow couldn't hate Vaiss.
"You, come closer."
The female spirit master stood up stiffly and walked up the stairs slowly. Getting closer, Vaiss got even more excited.
"Uuuu… Kyaaa…"
His milky voice adds more cuteness as he flails in the female spirit master's arm. Bibi Dong let go of her scepter and let it lean on her throne.
"Let me hold him and you can back down."
Bibi Dong carefully carried Vaiss, she was a little clumsy as this was the first time she held a baby. Vaiss smelled an orchid fragrance as he lay on Bibi Dong's arm.
When Vaiss was five meters away, she already felt warm energy gushing from his body and the moment she held Vaiss, Bibi Dong was convinced that Vaiss was related to the giant. Although it couldn't be compared with the giant, she could feel the dark emotion and spirit power inside her being purified. Her mood which was manic before became calm.
The source was the warm energy Vaiss constantly emitted, this energy was much purer than the spirit power in the air. It also had a purifying ability. Bibi Dong felt like spring, warm all over. Her mind and body felt light, no longer burdened by the dark things.
After tasting the sweetness, she didn't want to let go of Vaiss. She looked gently at Vaiss and poke his cheeks. Unknowingly, Bibi Dong let out a smile. Meanwhile, Vaiss also enjoyed being in her arms. It was soft and fragrant.
"Aaa…"
Vaiss grabbed Bibi Dong's finger and put it in his mouth. Bibi Dong used her spirit power to clean her finger before Vaiss put her finger in his mouth.
"Does he have a name?"
Ghost took a few seconds before answering. He was shocked. How long had it been since the pope smiled so gently?
"His name should be Vaiss, it was engraved on the crib."
"Vaiss…"
Bibi Dong gently released her finger and pinched Vaiss's cheek and rubbed it. It was smooth and bubbly, she couldn't get enough. She kept teasing Vaiss and he played along with her.
Bibi Dong felt a familiar presence suddenly appear in the hall but because of her unusually good mood, she ignored him. As for why that person was here, she already guessed when she didn't see Yue Guan with Ghost.
Qian Daoliu was already used to Bibi Dong's attitude and he was a little surprised by what he saw.
He went as soon as he heard Yue Guan's report. He was even more shocked by Father of Ultra suppression than Bibi Dong. How couldn't he? He felt a stronger light compared to the angel god from Father of Ultra. He even sent the second offering Golden Crocodile douluo to investigate.
Hearing that Vaiss was related to the giant, Qian Daoliu couldn't sit still. After being a little surprised by the different Bibi Dong, he focused on Vaiss.
When he felt it carefully, he was shocked to find that Vaiss's light attribute was stronger than Qian Renxue and he felt his seraphim martial soul surrender to Vaiss. Besides surrender, the seraphim martial soul was also attracted to Vaiss. Telling him to get closer to Vaiss.
Qian Daoliu walked closer, he wanted to see what attracted his martial soul. Bibi Dong saw Qian Daoliu getting near and snorted. She knew she couldn't defeat him so she wouldn't provoke him.
"This… such pure energy."
Five meters away from Vaiss, Qian Daoliu felt the excess energy from Vaiss's Blazing Sun Heart. He greedily absorbed it and felt it enhanced his seraphim martial soul. It was minuscule but it was there, he could tell the tiny improvement was because of the vast difference in strength.
Thinking here, he could not help but think of Qian Renxue. It was useless for him to get any stronger but it was different for Qian Renxue. Now he wanted to snatch Vaiss from Bibi Dong and send him to Qian Renxue.
But he calmed down, it was not too late to let Vaiss grow up first before sending him to his granddaughter. As for leaving Vaiss with Bibi Dong, he didn't think much of it. Looking at Bibi Dong now, she might fight him if he said he wanted to take Vaiss with him.
He was too lazy to fight with her and he didn't want the members of the Spirit Hall to think that the Pope Palace and Douluo Palace had a bad relationship. It might trigger a civil war in Spirit Hall.
But looking at the gentle Bibi Dong, he couldn't help but feel unfair for Qian Renxue. He knew his son was wrong but he felt that Bibi Dong already took revenge when she devoured Qian Xunji and Qian Renxue was innocent, she shouldn't have treated Qian Renxue, her own daughter, so coldly.
"Take good care of him."
"Hmmph!"
Qian Daoliu ordered and disappeared, as for Bibi Dong's answer, he did not care. Bibi Dong saw him leave and stayed silent. As for Vaiss, he didn't care about Qian Daoliu. The sad old man was already a living dead, he only lived to sacrifice himself for Qian Renxue god's test.
"What happened in the Great Star Dou is to rot in your stomach and take it to your grave. If there's a leak, cover it up and kill the one who leaks it. And Ghost, double the reward for members who participate in the hunt and the pension for the deceased family. Dismissed."
"Yes, Pope."
Ghost and the female spirit master saluted and went out of the hall, leaving only Bibi Dong and Vaiss.
