The auras of two Titled Douluos collided, leaving everyone present utterly bewildered.
No one had expected such a simple soul hunt to draw out two Titled Douluo powerhouses.
"Ning Rongrong, move back with the others. This has nothing to do with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. It is a personal matter between me and them."
Ning Rongrong nodded at those words, then quietly retreated and sent a signal for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to come pick her up.
Tang Hao watched this unfold without raising any objections.
It was best for him that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect did not get involved. Otherwise, the Clear Sky Sect would gain another enemy.
"With your strength, where is Xiao Wu?" Once Ning Rongrong had retreated to a safe distance, Tang Hao fixed Lin Feng with a deadly stare and asked.
Then, six soul rings appeared around Lin Feng: black, black, black, black, black, red. Tang Hao's eyes filled with killing intent.
"Good, good, good. I did not expect to encounter something like this. Do you have any last words?" The Clear Sky Hammer appeared in Tang Hao's hand, his meaning obvious: he was telling Lin Feng to leave his final words.
But when facing a heavily injured Tang Hao, what right did he have to demand Lin Feng's last words?
So Lin Feng acted as though he had not noticed Tang Hao's anger at all. Beneath his armor, he looked from Tang Hao to Zhao Wuji, then raised a hand and pointed at them both.
"One Clear Sky Douluo and one Immovable Ming King. Leave now, and no one will be hurt! Otherwise, you will all die!"
Tang Hao laughed in extreme fury. "Good, good, good! Very good indeed! Ever since I broke through to Soul Emperor, no one has dared to act so arrogantly before me! Do you know why?"
Lin Feng put one hand on his hip. "Probably because they were afraid of hurting a piece of trash's self-esteem."
"Hmph, arrogant old bastard!" Tang Hao grabbed Zhao Wuji and hurled him far away. Then he took a step forward, and the seventh soul ring of his Clear Sky Hammer flared brightly. At the same time, Tang Hao unleashed Divine Slaughter's Domain. Where no one noticed, his fifth Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring shattered instantly, its broken power pouring entirely into the Clear Sky Hammer.
Knowing full well that his injuries left him unable to fight a prolonged battle against an opponent of the same level, Tang Hao immediately erupted with the greatest power he could use without worsening his injuries too severely. He intended to end this quickly and minimize the damage to his body.
The ideal was wonderful, but reality rarely followed ideals.
As someone who had read the original Douluo Continent novel, and whose memory had greatly improved after awakening his Soul Martial Soul, Lin Feng could recall certain details from the original work.
Tang Hao currently bore the title of Clear Sky Douluo and carried the prestige of having defeated three long-famous Titled Douluos alone, but in truth, he was in a very weakened state.
Or rather, the Tang Hao of this period was severely weakened.
The original work had clearly stated that Tang Hao was tormented by his old injuries at this time. He needed alcohol to numb his nerves and ease the pain. Only after forcibly driving his injuries into his right arm and left leg, then cutting off that arm and leg, did his injuries finally begin to heal.
By the time he fully recovered, Tang San had already completed most of the Sea God Trials and helped him reattach his right arm and left leg.
Tang Hao was still powerful now, but he could only erupt for a short time. He had no real endurance in battle.
Therefore, Lin Feng naturally had no intention of clashing head-on with Tang Hao in this state. As the Clear Sky Hammer descended with terrifying power, Lin Feng directly lit up the soul bone in his left leg and used its Teleportation soul skill to fly high into the sky.
"Bastard!" The moment Tang Hao saw how far Lin Feng had teleported, he immediately understood where Lin Feng's soul bone had come from.
At that range, it was obvious that Lin Feng had not only absorbed Xiao Wu's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, but also her Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
Only a Hundred-Thousand-Year-level soul skill could completely ignore the pressure of his Divine Slaughter's Domain and transfer its user into the distant sky.
Thinking of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and soul bone he had prepared for Tang San, and how half his plan to take revenge against Spirit Hall had gone up in smoke, Tang Hao was instantly enraged beyond measure.
For a moment, he no longer cared about his injuries. He stepped forward and shot toward Lin Feng with the Clear Sky Hammer like a cannonball.
Meng Shu: "..."
Chao Tianxiang: "..."
Meng Yiran: "..."
Watching Tang Hao and Lin Feng battle in the sky, the three of them fell silent.
Meng Shu watched Lin Feng, who had released the aura of a Titled Douluo and seemed completely unafraid of Tang Hao. Thinking back to what Lin Feng had said earlier, even as an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo, he now needed to lean on his dragon-headed cane just to stand steadily.
Fortunately, Snake Grandmother Zhao Tianxiang took his hand at that moment.
Dragon Duke looked at Chao Tianxiang. "Old woman."
Chao Tianxiang shook her head. "It's fine. Don't worry. That is Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo. On the day he first entered the rank of Titled Douluo, three Titled Douluos came looking for him. Those three were all veteran Titled Douluos at rank ninety-five, and one of them was even the Pope of Spirit Hall, possessing the top-tier Six-Winged Angel martial soul."
"When those three joined forces against Tang Hao, who had only just become a Titled Douluo, one was beaten to death on the spot. The Pope of Spirit Hall never recovered afterward and indirectly died beneath Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer." Snake Grandmother Zhao Tianxiang softly recounted Tang Hao's record.
Dragon Duke Meng Shu's eyes lit up. "Old woman, you mean..."
Chao Tianxiang nodded. "That's right. His five black and one red soul ring configuration is certainly shocking, and he should even possess another nine soul skills, but how could he compare to the three rank ninety-five Titled Douluos of Spirit Hall?"
"Old man, it is not as if you and I have never seen Titled Douluos over the years. We have even fought some weaker Titled Douluos. But against rank ninety-five Titled Douluos, we would not even have the thought of becoming their enemies. That is precisely why we understand how powerful rank ninety-five Titled Douluos are."
"Yet three such powerful rank ninety-five Titled Douluos still ended up dead or crippled against Tang Hao. That shows just how invincible Tang Hao is."
When Snake Grandmother Zhao Tianxiang spoke of Tang Hao's invincibility, Dragon Duke nodded in agreement. "Indeed. Although a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring is certainly valuable, offending the Clear Sky Douluo over it is rather unwise."
Thinking of Tang Hao's invincibility, Dragon Duke felt as though he had swallowed a calming pill. In an instant, his back no longer hurt, his legs no longer ached, and all the strength that had been drained from his body returned at once.
He was now rather in the mood to watch the soul battle.
