Tang Hao's Ring Detonation, Electrolux Makes His Move

Buzz--

The moment the low, trembling sound of the air rang out, Su Zui vanished from his spot.

Without any warning, without any sign of gathering power, it was as if the heavens and earth had forcibly erased it. Only the golden airflow that had exploded out of nowhere continued to surge in place, bringing with it a visible shockwave that scattered water mist and pebbles from the lakeside.

One hundred and twenty-eight times Divine Speed.

How fast is this speed?

So fast that even sound couldn't keep up with his speed, leaving him ten times behind; so fast that he tore a vacuum in the air; so fast that even his own body almost couldn't withstand this Berserk torrent.

Su Zui felt as if the whole world was stretching, twisting, and deforming before his eyes.

The sounds of wind, water, and hammers all disappeared, leaving only the roar of blood rushing through the veins during high-speed movement, and the faint, almost inaudible groans of muscles and bones due to overload.

He could see Tang Hao. He could see him clearly.

The man who had transformed into a giant was as fast as lightning in the eyes of others, but under this 128 times Divine Speed, all of Tang Hao's movements seemed to be slowed down.

His hammer-wielding arm moved slowly in mid-air, every expression on his ferocious face frozen almost still, and the trajectory of the dark red Soul Power flowing within his body was clearly exposed to Su Zui's eyes.

It wasn't that Tang Hao was slow.

It's Su Zui, too fast.

So fast that Tang Hao didn't even have time to feel the pain when his sword fell.

Su Zui suppressed the surging pain in his heart and poured all his power into the Great Luo Sword Embryo.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's scales covered his arms, and the 200% amplification from Infinite Berserk boosted his entire body. The killing intent of the Divine Slaughter's Domain and the sword sharpness of the Invincible Sword Domain were all concentrated in this one sword strike.

He was targeting the core node where Clear Sky True Body was gathering power.

That was the central hub of Tang Hao's Martial Soul True Body's operation, the nexus connecting the hundred-meter-tall giant phantom to Tang Hao's main body.

Once this point is severed, Clear Sky True Body will be forcibly broken, and Tang Hao's power chain will collapse instantly like a bowstring broken.

The sword light in Su Zui intensified. Without the slightest hesitation, his figure swooped down from the sky, transforming into a golden streak of light that tore through the sky. The tip of his sword pointed directly at the point on Tang Hao's back where the dark red light was strongest.

One sword.

So fast that it left no afterimage, so fast that space itself seemed to be cleaved open by the sword.

Pfft!

With a soft sound, as smooth as cutting tofu.

The Great Luo Sword Embryo, carrying terrifying kinetic energy accumulated at a speed 128 times faster than divine speed, pierced through the core of Tang Hao's true body without any hindrance.

Golden sword light pierced through from the front and emerged from the other side of Tang Hao's body, bringing with it a cloud of dark red blood mist.

Boom!

A tremendous roar erupted.

The hundred-meter-tall giant phantom behind Tang Hao crumbled inch by inch, like a sand tower whose foundation had been removed, starting from its core node.

The dark red fragments of Soul Power, like shattered mirrors, peeled off and dissolved piece by piece, eventually transforming into a sky full of dark red streams of light that scattered in all directions.

Clear Sky True Body was forcefully shattered by this sword strike.

Tang Hao's massive body stiffened abruptly, and the thick, bronze skin that covered his entire body, as heavy as refined iron, receded rapidly like the receding tide.

The giant figure, which had swelled to nearly three zhang tall, shrank back to its original size. Blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he staggered back several steps. He lost his footing and knelt heavily on one knee on the shattered ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The surging power within him dissipated rapidly like a flood breaking through a dam, as Clear Sky True Body crumbled.

The overwhelming pressure of Level 97 Super Douluo, which had made people tremble, instantly weakened by more than half, and the domineering power that had crushed everything just now was gone.

As the saying goes, "One should press on with one's might, then again and again, but after that one will be exhausted."

The Clear Sky Hammer is an explosive type of Soul Skill, and Tang Hao's body was full of hidden injuries, so he was only hanging on by his last breath.

But now, that last breath has been cut off.

At almost the same moment, Su Zui also reached his limit.

After that sword fell, the terrifying backlash from the 128 times Divine Speed was like a flash flood, instantly engulfing his entire body.

His previously strained state of being collapsed suddenly, his body abruptly stopped in mid-air, and then, like a kite with a broken string, he plummeted straight down.

Puff--

A mouthful of blood spurted out, tracing a poignant arc in the sunlight before spilling onto the lakeside ground.

Su Zui crashed heavily to the ground, rolled twice, and barely managed to support himself with the Great Luo Sword Embryo. He knelt on one knee, panting heavily.

His hand gripping the sword hilt trembled violently, and blood seeped from between his fingers.

The veins in my entire arm felt like they had been clamped by red-hot iron clamps, sending waves of burning, tearing pain through me.

The cost of forcibly breaking through to 128 times the Divine Speed has now come back entirely.

His meridians were mostly severed by the Berserk, lightning -Divine Speed Power.

Fine cracks spread along the meridians, covering almost the entire body. The bones emitted a faint creaking sound as they succumbed to the weight, and spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the surface of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's scales, slowly oozing beads of blood.

The state of Infinite Berserk was also rapidly subsiding.

The 200% increase was like a receding tide; the golden aura around him grew fainter and fainter, and all his strength seemed to be drained away, making it extremely difficult even to lift his arm.

Limit.

He pushed himself to the limit, and truly only had this one strike left to muster.

But that's enough.

Su Zui knew he would get hurt, but he didn't care.

Because he knew he still had a trump card up his sleeve.

Almost simultaneously, Su Zui summoned the Chaos Wine Gourd and used its last bit of Soul Power to activate the Chaos Wine Gourd's first Soul Skill, Blood-Returning Grape Wine.

He downed a whole gourd of wine in one gulp, and a surge of vitality erupted within Su Zui's body.

As this life force circulated, Su Zui's injuries healed at a visible speed.

Qian Renxue transformed into a golden streak of light and rushed to Su Zui's side almost simultaneously.

She supported his swaying body with one hand and immediately placed the other on his shoulder, channeling her pure Soul Power into his body.

Qian Renxue's voice was filled with barely suppressed anxiety and heartache. "Xiao Zui! How are you?"

"It's alright... I can still hold on." Su Zui said in a low voice, his voice hoarse, but his gaze remained fixed on the figure kneeling on one knee ahead. "Clear Sky True Body, I've broken it."

Tang Hao knelt on the ground, his chest heaving violently as he gasped for breath.

He slowly raised his head, his scarlet eyes churning with an extremely complex mix of emotions.

He looked down at the sword wound that ran through his chest and abdomen.

The wound was deep, and dark red blood kept gushing out, staining the soil beneath his feet.

He looked up again at the boy who was clearly swaying but still stubbornly standing there, his eyes filled with shock that almost overflowed.

Is this young man really the same age as his son? Or is he some kind of old monster?

The speed, power, and sharpness of that sword strike were something even he, a veteran Super Douluo who had traversed the continent for decades, had never seen before, let alone been able to withstand.

He couldn't understand how a boy so young could unleash such a game-changing attack at a life-or-death moment.

Clear Sky True Body was his trump card, the foundation of his dominance over the world. But just now, it was shattered by Su Zui's sword.

This boy's talent is terrifying.

It was so terrifying that a chill ran down Tang Hao's spine.

Give him a few more years, and how far will this young man grow? Once he truly becomes Titled Douluo and then Super Douluo, who on the entire continent will be able to subdue him? At that time, who will be able to avenge the Clear Sky Sect for him?

Tang Hao's heart sank little by little, then gradually filled with a resolute and fierce aura.

He slowly supported himself with the Clear Sky Hammer and stood up again. Although his body was still swaying slightly and his aura had weakened considerably, the mad fire in his eyes burned even brighter.

He never intended to leave here alive today.

With the Clear Sky Sect gone, the blood feud of his clan weighed heavily on his shoulders. He lived on, with only one thing left to do—revenge.

Kill Su Zui, kill Qian Renxue.

If these two heirs of the Spirit Hall die today, the Spirit Hall's future hope will be extinguished. Tang Hao may die, but before he dies, he will drag these two geniuses into hell to be buried with him.

He gave his life to salvage the future of the Spirit Hall.

He didn't lose money on this deal; he won big.

Tang Hao slowly raised his hand, his five fingers spread out, and an extremely suppressed Soul Power surged in his palm.

He looked up at Su Zui, his eyes eerily calm, a kind of madness born from utter despair.

"Kid, you really are a genius." Tang Hao's hoarse voice echoed by the lake, tinged with a sickly smile. "In my life, I, Tang Hao, have never admired many people. Today, with this sword strike, I admire you. But the more admirable you are, the less I can let you live."

"Because your talent is too terrifying. I can't allow the Spirit Hall to have another monster capable of crushing the continent."

"Kid, remember this move. I earned it with my life."

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Hao clenched his fist tightly.

Boom!

Within his body, the nine Soul Rings trembled violently at the same time, emitting a dazzling light.

Immediately afterwards, the bottommost Soul Ring exploded without warning, transforming into an extremely Berserk torrent of Soul Power that frantically poured into Tang Hao's limbs and bones.

Ring Detonation!

This is a secret technique of the Clear Sky Sect, which uses the immense Soul Power generated at the moment Soul Ring shatters to unleash maximum damage.

It should be noted that Tang Hao was covered in numerous internal injuries at this moment. Choosing to Ring Detonation now would be tantamount to courting death.

Tang Hao, without hesitation, immediately Ring Detonation.

As the first Soul Ring exploded, Tang Hao's aura surged, and his previously listless presence instantly transformed into a fierce one.

The second one, the third one!

The three Soul Rings exploded one after another, and the Berserk Soul Power poured into his meridians like magma, forcibly replenishing the power that had been lost from the collapse of Clear Sky True Body.

After exploding until the fifth Soul Ring, Tang Hao's withered body swelled up again, his muscles bulged, and dark red Soul Power surged wildly on his body, like a volcano about to erupt.

He gripped the Clear Sky Hammer tightly, and the dark red patterns on the hammer once again shone with a dazzling light.

He looked at Su Zui and Qian Renxue, his eyes filled with resolute killing intent, and said, word by word, "Today, both of you will stay here."

The panicked cry of Sky Dream Ice Silkworm exploded in Su Zui's mind, "He's gone mad! This guy has really gone mad! He's burning his own life essence! This power has already surpassed Level 97..."

Su Zui's heart sank suddenly.

He knew what the Ring Detonation meant. Tang Hao had completely given up on living; he was going to risk his life, unleash his last bit of strength, and spare no expense to exchange himself and Qian Renxue.

Su Zui has now reached his absolute limit. His meridians are broken, his qi and blood are depleted, and he can barely stand.

Although Qian Renxue still has the strength to fight, she might not be able to withstand Tang Hao, who is desperately Ring Detonation.

Su Zui could only look at the Great Luo Sword Embryo.

"Brother Jian, I know you must have a way. Now our lives are tied together, I can only rely on you."

Upon hearing Su Zui's words, the Great Luo Sword Embryo suddenly began to tremble, as if it understood Su Zui's words.

However, at that moment, Electrolux slowly opened his eyes.

His gaze fell on Tang Hao, and he sighed softly.

There was no anger or murderous intent in that sigh, only a trace of inexplicable emotion.

Why bother?

Electrolux slowly raised his withered, ethereal hand and pointed it at Tang Hao from afar.

It was just a light flick of the finger, without any earth-shattering force, without any overwhelming pressure, and without even a sense of fluctuation in power.

But just as that finger landed...

Tang Hao froze.

His body, already scorched and raging by the power of Berserk exploding Ring Detonation, was as if gripped firmly in the void by an invisible hand, frozen in place.

His Soul Power was still surging wildly within him, and the forbidden power that burned his life force was still roaring in his meridians, but his body could no longer move an inch.

Even the attack he had just gathered and was about to unleash was abruptly frozen in mid-air.

Tang Hao's pupils contracted sharply.

He tried desperately to break free, but the invisible restraint was like a shackle ingrained in the deepest part of his Divine Soul, and no matter how much power he mobilized, it remained unmoved.

He was trembling all over, but he couldn't lift a single finger.

"What... kind of power is this...?"

For the first time, Tang Hao's voice was filled with undisguised shock.

Tang Hao knew better than anyone how powerful the explosion would be after he detonated himself.

Even Qian Daoliu would never so easily deflect his attack.

Tang Hao's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at the old man in front of him with fear in his eyes.

There's only one explanation for achieving this level of skill.

The old man before us is not human...

Electrolux withdrew his finger, looked at him calmly, and slowly said, "Little fellow, your desperate stance reminds me of some old times. Unfortunately, you've gone down the wrong path. Your grudges shouldn't be taken out on these children."

"Now that I'm here, I won't let you harm them in the slightest."
