The thunder was deafening, the azure curtain vanished, and a giant silver serpent weaved back and forth in the dark clouds, crackling and sparking, illuminating the heavens and the earth.

The Twin Divine Tribulation had arrived, and a bolt of lightning the size of an arm struck towards Ji Xiaoxiao.

Ji Xiaoxiao remained unmoved, silently enduring the tempering of the lightning.

Gradually, the lightning became more and more numerous, thicker and faster, stronger and stronger. Ji Xiaoxiao went from being able to handle it with ease to being in a sorry state and struggling to cope.

Half a day later, the last bolt of lightning struck with earth-shattering force. Ji Xiaoxiao, her body charred black, gritted her teeth and endured it.

The lightning tribulation dissipated, the dark clouds receded, sacred music arose, and sweet rain fell from the sky.

As the world's first dual-god, Ji Xiaoxiao received countless benefits from heaven and earth.

"Wow, Miss did it!" Daryl cheered.

Zhi Shu wasn't as carefree as Da Li; her lips were slightly pursed, and a faint air of pleasure lingered around her, like a cool and comfortable spring breeze.

"Little Erzi, your mouth can be quite useful sometimes." Dali jumped in front of Shen Du Er, proudly waving his fist, and said, "But Miss isn't a menace. If you say anything bad about Miss again, I'll hit you!"

"Yes, yes, yes, your lady is a fairy," Shen Du Er replied perfunctorily.

Dali, being easygoing, failed to grasp the deeper meaning behind Shen Du Er's words. He straightened his chest, feeling proud of Ji Xiaoxiao, who was a unique being in the world, possessing both spiritual and martial prowess.

Having survived the tribulation of breaking through to godhood, Ji Xiaoxiao was focused on receiving the gifts of heaven and earth. Just as she was unable to spare any attention, a dark shadow flew rapidly from the west.

"Zhi Shu, prepare for battle!" Shen Du Er roared.

Shen Du'er was the one with the highest cultivation level among the three, and he was the first to discover the anomaly in the west.

Knowing that there was no doubt about her, she never hesitated to help Princess in any small matter or to nip any danger in the bud.

"Golden Bell Formation." Zhi Shu waved her hand gently, and a huge golden bell covered an area of ​​ten meters in radius. As the golden bell was formed, "dong," a distant sound of bells and drums seemed to come from the sky.

"You think your little Golden Bell Formation can stop me?"

As the rough voice rang out, the three of them saw the unfriendly newcomer's face. He was eight zhang tall, towering and imposing. His black robes billowed like clouds, making him appear like a ghost. His eyes, as large as copper bells, were indistinguishable in black and white, shining golden brighter than a blazing wheel.

"Who is this person? How come he's so tall?" Dali pointed at the strange man.

Shen Du's eyes narrowed slightly, a glint of light flashing through the gaps.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Lord of the Misty Swamp, the Devouring Toad Black Hill." Shen Du Er couldn't suppress his smile; his fighting spirit, which grew stronger with each challenge, surged within him.

"The Sky-Swallowing Toad?" Dali frowned. "Why would it... It's a kind of toad like that lewd toad. It's come to take revenge on us." Dali suddenly realized.

Zhi Shu subtly strengthened Ji Xiaoxiao's defenses, gained some space, and interjected, "The Devouring Toad Black Hill has cultivated for ten thousand years and has only one daughter, whom he cherishes like a treasure."

The meaning behind his words is very clear: his beloved daughter is dead, so why not seek revenge?

The three chatted amiably, while Hei Qiu conjured a giant handprint and slammed it down on Ji Xiaoxiao. The golden bell enveloping Ji Xiaoxiao only swayed slightly, without showing a single crack.

"It has some ability." Black Hill was a little anxious. Once the dual gods awakened, what good would it do to become a god and be supreme? It would still be powerless to fight back.

We must kill the two gods before they wake up.

Black Hill held nothing back and attacked Ji Xiaoxiao with all his might.

The Golden Bell Formation was a formation modified by Zhishu, possessing astonishing defensive power, yet it could not withstand the relentless bombardment of the Demon Beast Venerable.

“Dali, the only one.” Zhishu didn’t even look up, busy with her work.

“Understood,” Darli and God replied in unison.

Dali, being impatient, dashed out in a flash, leaving only Shen Du Er behind. He calmly said to Zhi Shu, "Don't push yourself. Take it easy. I... your master is already a dual god. No one in the world can rival her."

"I understand." Zhi Shu said reassuring words, but her hands moved with unwavering efficiency.

Shen Du Er shook his head, transformed into a beam of light, and rushed towards Black Hill.

With Darryl and Goddor joining the battle, Black Hill stumbled and his attacks on Golden Bell weakened considerably. Black Hill was furious at this unexpected turn of events.

"You deserve to die." Seeing that time was ticking away, Hei Qiu became anxious. "I will kill you first, and then settle accounts with that bitch."

Black Hill is a renowned venerable one. For Shen Du Er and Dali to join forces against ordinary spirit gods and war gods would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, but against Black Hill, they would not gain much advantage.

Dali was quickly defeated and struck to the ground by Heiqiu's palm. Shen Du'er struggled on, glancing at Zhishu out of the corner of his eye. Zhishu nodded, and Shen Du'er flew to the ground, carrying Dali away into the distance.

Black Hill didn't think much of it, assuming that Shen Du Er and the others were afraid. As soon as it took a step, countless attack formations, such as the Fire Frost Formation and the Water Overflow Formation, quietly appeared around it.

“Despicable…” The loud noise drowned out Black Hill’s angry words.

Half an hour later, Zhishu turned pale and collapsed to the ground, exhausted.

"Everyone's been telling you not to force yourself." Shen Du Er carefully helped Da Li up.

"We must nip all dangers in the bud and not let them get close to Miss," Zhi Shu explained to Shen Du Er with a stern face and clear pronunciation.

Shen Du Er felt a slight pang in his heart, his smile instantly freezing. He shook his head and deliberately changed the subject, asking, "You said Black Hill is dead?"

"No," Zhi Shu said in a deep voice, "I can sense it. My formation won't hold it for long. If Miss hasn't woken up by the time it breaks free, we..." Death is best left unmentioned!
