First of all, Tang Hao himself did not even know whether such an outrageous sect truly existed! Although the Clear Sky Sect was powerful, Tang Hao had never heard of any sect capable of cultivating such formidable disciples.
Moreover, if such a sect existed, then unless it was hidden in the most secret corner of Douluo Continent, it should at least have been within his knowledge.
Second, for two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts to sacrifice themselves for a child who had only just awakened his martial soul... that was simply too earth-shattering. Such an existence would be utterly explosive and world-shattering anywhere on Douluo Continent.
On Douluo Continent, Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts were legendary beings. Their strength and rarity made them almost impossible for humans to control, let alone be obtained by a youth who had only just awakened his martial soul.
Tang Hao's heart was filled with doubt and confusion. He could neither understand nor accept the reality before his eyes.
He had once been one of the strongest beings on Douluo Continent. He had once been a Titled Douluo, and none could rival his strength. Yet now, he had been shocked by a youth who had only just awakened his martial soul, leaving him incomparably frustrated and powerless.
At that thought, a complicated expression flashed through Tang Hao's eyes. His brows knitted tightly, as though he were struggling to suppress the shock and unease in his heart.
His fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and his breathing grew hurried.
The shock in his heart crashed against his reason wave after wave like the tide. He had never seen such a powerful soul ring configuration, much less two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings. Even on Douluo Continent, such power was exceedingly rare.
His heart was filled with doubt and curiosity. He wanted to know how this youth had acquired such powerful soul rings. It was also filled with jealousy and anger. He envied the youth for possessing such great power, and he was furious that the youth dared challenge his authority.
A gloomy light flickered in Tang Hao's eyes. No matter what, he had decided that today, he would make this Kid pay the price. He could not allow him to obtain such tremendous power so easily.
At this moment, Tang Hao no longer dared to underestimate Blade. He felt that in this short span of time, his understanding of the world had been overturned countless times! His heart was filled with awe. This youth, his strength, and his soul rings all far exceeded Tang Hao's imagination.
"Good, very good. Two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings are indeed intimidating. But you're at most level twenty. Can you even control them?" Tang Hao's voice brimmed with killing intent, and a cold gleam flashed in his eyes like a sharpened blade.
"I'm afraid you'll die right here today!" His voice was like ice, every word filled with threat and murderous intent.
Tang Hao's voice was thick with killing intent. As the saying went, a common man was innocent, but possessing a treasure made him guilty! So what if he possessed two Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings? He was still only level twenty at most, and this short-lived Kid had only just awakened his martial soul. He did not even know how to use it!
Remembering that this bastard was at odds with his son, how could Tang Hao possibly allow him to grow?! If Blade obediently helped his son reach the pinnacle, Tang Hao might have spared him, but there were no ifs!
Tang Hao's heart was filled with rage. He could not tolerate the existence of someone who was at odds with his son. He decided that no matter what, he would stop this youth from growing. He would make him understand who the true strong person was.
At this moment, only killing intent remained in Tang Hao's heart. A frigid gleam flashed in his eyes, his fists clenched, his body tensed, and his Aura instantly surged to its peak.
This time, Tang Hao stopped pretending altogether. He directly unleashed the strength of a Titled Douluo. His Aura erupted in an instant, and the pressure of a Titled Douluo crushed the surrounding air as though it were tangible. Terrifying pressure swirled around him, and his Aura was like that of a savage beast, inspiring fear in all who faced it.
He drew out the Clear Sky Hammer. The hammer let out a low roar in his hand, as though cheering for its master. Tang Hao's eyes were filled with resolve, and immense power radiated from his body as if it were about to tear apart the entire space.
The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand emanated a suffocating fluctuation. It was a peerless divine weapon capable of shattering the void, and also the symbol of his identity as a member of the Clear Sky Sect.
At the same time, this meant that the Clear Sky Hammer had exposed his identity as a member of the Clear Sky Sect!
But he no longer cared whether this Kid might be the Saint Son of some hidden, peerless top-tier sect who had come out to train, nor whether attacking him would bring disaster upon his sect!
There was only one thing in his eyes—kill Blade! As for whether Blade had some top-tier sect behind him, he no longer wished to think about it. Tang Hao had always acted as he pleased. No matter what kind of turmoil followed, he had long grown accustomed to walking through bloodshed and slaughter.
Even if it's true, so what?! Tang Hao's arrogance and killing intent intertwined. He was already prepared. Whether it meant destroying the corpse and erasing all traces, or facing possible accountability from a sect, he would press forward without hesitation.
After all, it was not the first time Tang Hao had done something without considering his sect. Besides, if he killed him and destroyed the corpse, who would ever find out?! More importantly, whether Blade had a backing was merely speculation. Perhaps he was simply worrying over nothing! He had thought too much! At this moment, there was only one thought in Tang Hao's mind—cut the grass at its roots!
Tang Hao's gaze was as cold as ice, a merciless chill that seemed capable of freezing one's very soul. His Clear Sky Hammer radiated a heart-palpitating Aura through the air, as though it could tear apart heaven and earth the moment it appeared.
Ancient runes densely covered the hammer's body, gleaming with a dim blue light. They were symbols of the baleful Aura and killing intent accumulated through countless battles.
The surrounding air seemed to grow oppressive beneath Tang Hao's killing intent. The temperature plummeted, as though even time had come to a standstill. Every movement Tang Hao made was filled with power and a strange beauty, the unique bearing of a Titled Douluo—something no level-twenty youth could compare to.
Blade stood quietly there like a solitary peak, facing Tang Hao's killing intent, which had nearly solidified into substance, and the oppressive force brought by the Clear Sky Hammer.
There was not the slightest trace of fear on his face. Instead, he revealed a maturity and determination wholly unsuited to his age.
Even more shocking, a fanatical and extreme anticipation flickered in the depths of his eyes, like a madman eager to prove himself through battle!!
Two enormous Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Rings slowly revolved around his body, radiating a heart-palpitating light. Although his strength had not fully awakened, the power lurking within him was already enough to make Tang Hao, a Titled Douluo, feel a trace of threat.
"A Titled Douluo with the Clear Sky Hammer... hehe, can you finally take me to the other shore?" Blade's voice was calm yet tinged with mockery. He gripped his sword in one hand, its tip aimed directly at Tang Hao, as though declaring some unchangeable fate.
A cold light flashed through Tang Hao's eyes, and a sneer curled across his lips. The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand blazed brilliantly, its silvery-white glow dazzling as lightning.
He spoke no further, for he knew that the situation had long surpassed what words could resolve. He would use absolute power to make this youth, who dared challenge him, understand that this world was ultimately a hunting ground for the strong.
"The other shore? Since you are so determined to die, then I'll grant your wish!" Tang Hao's voice exploded like thunder, filled with unquestionable resolve.
"Die!" With an enraged roar, Tang Hao swung the Clear Sky Hammer, bringing it down viciously upon Blade with power capable of destroying everything. The hammer's shadow carried the might of heaven and earth. Wherever it passed, the ground cracked, stones flew, and even the air seemed to be compressed until it exploded beneath this strike.
That power seemed intent on reducing everything before it to nothingness. Even time itself appeared to freeze at this moment!!
At the same time, inside Blade's mind.
Ding! Tang Hao's understanding had been repeatedly overturned. Portrayal Progress increased by 0.5%! Ding! Tang Hao was gradually becoming enraged. Portrayal Progress increased by 0.4%! Current Portrayal Progress: 11.68%!
