Clear Sky Sect? Only when Tang Chen is present does it deserve the title of the world's number one sect.
"Bang!"
With a dull, thunderous boom, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan let out a muffled grunt, his figure stumbling back in a somewhat disheveled state from the intense clash with Tang Zhen, only managing to steady himself after staggering two steps upon landing.
His face was deathly pale, and his aura was visibly chaotic.
Opposite him, Tang Zhen, though his clothes were somewhat tattered and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, remained standing.
The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand still pulsed with dense black light, its momentum as imposing as a rainbow.
Clearly, in that head-on collision, the domineering nature of the Clear Sky Hammer and his own cultivation level had given him the slight upper hand.
On the other side, the situation for Ghost Douluo Gui Mei was even worse.
Using his own strength, he unleashed Ghost Shadows, manifesting thousands of illusions to desperately entangle the brothers Tang Hao and Tang Xiao.
Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer was heavy and powerful, every strike carrying the force to shatter mountains and split rocks.
Tang Xiao's hammer technique was even more steady and seasoned, balancing both offense and defense.
Though the brothers were still young, their coordination was seamless; once their Clear Sky Hammer techniques were unleashed, their power multiplied.
While Gui Mei's ghost illusions were eerie and difficult to defend against, under the frantic bombardment of two violent Clear Sky Hammers, he was already stretched thin and facing constant peril, forced to rely solely on his movement techniques to dodge and weave, with signs of defeat already showing.
As for the chaotic melee between the dozen or so Martial Soul Hall Spirit Douluos and the Clear Sky Sect elders...
Although they were temporarily holding their own thanks to exquisite coordination, even wounding a few Clear Sky Sect elders, the Clear Sky Sect elders held the numerical advantage, and each was rich in combat experience with extreme tenacity.
Under prolonged fighting, the Martial Soul Hall side began to show signs of fatigue, their offensive no longer as sharp as it had been at the start.
After all, this was the home turf of the Clear Sky Sect.
The opponents were rested and waiting, and having been pushed to the brink, the combat power they erupted with was stronger than it would have been under normal circumstances.
Meanwhile, the Martial Soul Hall side had traveled a long distance and were fighting on away ground; failing to secure a quick victory, their morale was inevitably affected.
"It seems that relying solely on Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and those Spirit Douluos to take down the Clear Sky Sect in a short time is still a bit of a stretch." Qian Xunji swept his gaze across the battlefield and made an instant judgment.
Especially regarding Gui Mei's side, though this was to be expected.
Gui Mei excelled in stealth, assassination, and crowd control; head-on brute force was not his forte.
In a one-on-one fight, his absolute combat power was not even as good as Sea Dragon Douluo.
"It seems the show is about over." Sea Dragon Douluo also withdrew his gaze, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as the vast, ocean-like spirit power around him began to slowly rise.
The next moment, a pressure even more terrifying than before permeated the area.
"It is time to end this." Qian Xunji smiled slightly, but there was no warmth in that smile, only cold, murderous intent.
"Hum--!"
A dazzling, brilliant golden light erupted violently from Qian Xunji's body!
Six enormous, sacred wings, condensed entirely from pure golden flame, suddenly unfurled behind his back!
Each wing flowed with holy radiance, its edges burning with faint golden flames, making him appear like a deity descended into the mortal realm!
Six-Winged Angel martial soul, fully released!
The terrifying pressure belonging to a level 95 Super Douluo, mixed with an aura of extreme holiness and light, swept across the entire plaza like a tsunami!
Wherever it passed, even the air seemed to be purified and solidified!
"Sect Master Tang, This Seat shall accompany you for a few moves!"
Qian Xunji let out a long laugh, his voice ringing out like clashing metal.
With a flap of the six wings behind him, his figure transformed into a bolt of golden lightning, instantly crossing dozens of meters to pounce directly toward Tang Zhen, who was just about to press his advantage against Chrysanthemum Douluo!
Before he even arrived, a golden holy sword beam, condensed to the extreme, tore through the air, carrying the power to purify all things as it slashed toward Tang Zhen's head!
Seeing this, Tang Zhen's expression changed drastically.
He had not expected Qian Xunji to enter the fray personally so soon.
And to unleash such a fierce, lethal strike right from the start!
He roared in anger, not daring to be careless, as the black light on his Clear Sky Hammer surged, meeting the golden sword beam.
"Clang--!!!"
Amidst the deafening boom, Tang Zhen felt a vast, terrifying force that was both holy and sharp travel from the hammer handle.
It numbed his palms and sent his blood surging, forcing him back three steps by this single strike!
He was horrified; Qian Xunji's strength was even greater than the rumors suggested!
As for Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, with Qian Xunji taking over Tang Zhen, his pressure was greatly reduced.
He snorted coldly, his figure flickering as he stopped trading blows with Tang Zhen, turning instead to pounce on the Clear Sky Sect elders who were entangled with the Martial Soul Hall Spirit Douluos.
He couldn't beat Tang Zhen, but surely he could handle these Spirit Douluo-level elders?
What a joke!
The Clear Sky Hammer martial soul was strong, but it depended on who was wielding it.
If it were Tang Chen and the others, that would be one thing; they would be enough to uphold the reputation of the world's number one tool martial soul.
But if it were anyone else, well.
To be honest, let alone trying to compare with the Chen Family's Seven Kill Sword or the Coiling Dragon Staff of the sixth and seventh elders of Martial Soul Hall, they might not even be able to measure up to the Breaking Clan's Soul Breaking Spear.
The petals of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum danced through the air, peerlessly sharp, specifically targeting those elders who were already injured or had exhausted a significant amount of soul power.
Such actions immediately threw the ranks of the Clear Sky Sect elders into total disarray.
At the same time, Sea Dragon Douluo also made his move.
Without any earth-shattering momentum, he simply took a single step forward.
"Boom--!"
It felt as if the entire earth trembled with that single step of his!
The stone slabs beneath his feet shattered instantly, with spiderweb-like cracks spreading out for several meters.
A deep blue phantom of the Sea God faintly emerged behind him, and the sound of endless ocean tides seemed to emanate from the void.
His body was wreathed in visible blue currents—the manifestation of highly condensed ocean soul power and divine aura.
"Tang Hao, Tang Xiao."
Sea Dragon Douluo's voice was as cold as ten-thousand-year ice, his gaze locked onto the two brothers who were currently surrounding Ghost Douluo:
"The grudge from the Star Dou Great Forest that day—it is time for it to be repaid."
Before his voice had even faded, his burly figure had already vanished from where he stood.
In the next instant, appearing as if by teleportation at Tang Hao's side, a fist covered in deep blue dragon scales and knotted with muscle, carrying a terrifying, overwhelming force, slammed without any flourish toward Tang Hao's chest!
Wherever the fist passed, the air was compressed into a piercing sonic boom, faintly accompanied by the sound of a dragon's roar!
Tang Hao's pupils constricted sharply.
He felt an irresistible, massive force accompanied by a suffocating oceanic pressure rushing toward him.
It felt as if he were not facing a single person, but an entire raging, angry sea!
He roared, holding the Clear Sky Hammer horizontally before his chest, pouring his entire soul power into it without reservation.
"BOOM--!!!"
Sea Dragon Douluo's fist slammed solidly into the face of the massive Clear Sky Hammer!
Tang Hao was struck as if by lightning, his entire body shuddering violently as the bones in his arms emitted a groaning sound of unbearable strain.
A mouthful of blood sprayed out wildly, and he was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, smashing heavily into the stone wall in the distance as debris flew everywhere!
"Second Brother!" Tang Xiao's eyes were wide with fury, and he wanted to go to his rescue, but he was held fast by Ghost Douluo, Gui Mei, who had seized the opportunity to break free, and Sea Dragon Douluo, who was closing in like a shadow.
The situation had reversed in an instant!
With two peak powerhouses personally entering the fray, the pressure on the Clear Sky Sect increased dramatically.
Two against one, they might find it a bit difficult.
But if it were one-on-one, heh, it should be the others who are worried.
Regardless of anything else, Sea Dragon Douluo and Gui Mei were both genuine Title Douluo.
And they were the kind whose strength was not weak at all.
If they couldn't even defeat a Soul Douluo in a one-on-one fight, they might as well just find a building and jump off it.
