Clear Sky Sect? Only When Tang Chen Was There Did It Deserve the Title of the World's Number One Sect

"Bang!"

A dull, thunderous crash rang out. Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan grunted as he was sent flying backward from his fierce clash with Tang Zhen. He landed awkwardly and staggered two steps before regaining his balance.

His face was somewhat pale, and his breathing was ragged.

Across from him, Tang Zhen's clothes were somewhat torn, and a trace of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

But the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand still gleamed with a deep black light, and his aura surged like a rainbow.

Clearly, in their head-on clash just now, the Clear Sky Hammer's overwhelming force and Tang Zhen's own cultivation had given him a slight advantage.

On the other side, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei was faring even worse.

Using Ghost Shadows, he had conjured countless illusions and was desperately keeping the brothers Tang Hao and Tang Xiao at bay all by himself.

Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer was massive and heavy, and every blow carried the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.

Tang Xiao's hammer techniques were steadier and more seasoned, equally suited to offense and defense.

Though the brothers were still young, they worked together seamlessly. Once they unleashed the Clear Sky Hammer techniques, their power multiplied.

Gui Mei's Ghost Shadows were strange and difficult to defend against, but under the frenzied assault of two brutal Clear Sky Hammers, he was already struggling to hold his ground and teetering on the brink of disaster. He could only rely on his elusive footwork to dodge and maneuver, and defeat was already written across his face.

As for the chaotic clash between the dozen or so Soul Douluo from Spirit Hall and the Clear Sky Sect elders...

Though their excellent teamwork had kept them from falling behind for the moment, and they had even wounded several Clear Sky Sect elders in return,

the Clear Sky Sect elders outnumbered them, and every one of them was seasoned in real combat and possessed extraordinary resilience.

As the fight wore on, the Spirit Hall side began to show signs of fatigue, their attacks no longer as fierce as they had been at the start.

After all, this was the Clear Sky Sect's home ground.

Their opponents had been able to conserve their strength, and they had been driven to the brink, so their fighting power surpassed what they would normally have been capable of.

Meanwhile, Spirit Hall had traveled a long way to fight on enemy ground. With their assault dragging on without success, it was only natural for their morale to suffer.

"It seems that relying on Yue Guan and Gui Mei, along with those Soul Douluo, won't be enough to take down the Clear Sky Sect quickly," Qian Xunji judged at a glance, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield.

That was especially true of Gui Mei's side. In fact, it was only to be expected.

Gui Mei excelled at stealth, assassination, and controlling the battlefield. A direct clash of brute force was not his strong suit.

In a one-on-one fight, his raw combat strength was even below Sea Dragon Douluo's.

"It seems the show has gone on long enough," Sea Dragon Douluo said, also turning his gaze away. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as the boundless Soul Power around him began to rise.

In the next moment, an even more terrifying pressure spread through the air.

"It's time to bring this to an end." Qian Xunji smiled faintly, but there was not a trace of warmth in it—only icy killing intent.

"Vmm—!"

Brilliant golden light suddenly burst from Qian Xunji!

Six enormous, sacred wings formed entirely from pure golden flames unfurled behind him!

Holy radiance flowed across every feather, while faint golden flames burned along the edges, making him appear like a god descended into the mortal world!

The Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was fully unleashed!

The terrifying pressure of a ninety-fifth-level Super Douluo, mixed with an aura of supreme holiness and light, swept across the entire plaza like a tsunami!

Wherever it passed, even the air seemed to be purified and frozen in place!

"Sect Master Tang, allow me to trade a few moves with you!"

Qian Xunji laughed aloud, his voice ringing like clashing metal.

His six wings beat behind him, and his body became a bolt of golden lightning, crossing dozens of yards in an instant as he charged straight at Tang Zhen, who had been about to press his advantage against Chrysanthemum Douluo!

Before he even arrived, a concentrated beam of golden holy light had already torn through the air, carrying the power to purify all things as it slashed toward Tang Zhen's head!

Tang Zhen's expression changed drastically.

He had not expected Qian Xunji to join the fight so soon.

And his first move was already such a vicious killing blow!

With a furious shout, he dared not take it lightly. The black light of the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand flared brightly as he swung it toward the golden sword beam.

"Clang—!!!"

Amid the ear-splitting crash, Tang Zhen felt an immense, terrifying force—both holy and razor-sharp—surge through the hammer's handle.

His palm went numb, and his blood and Qi churned. The blow forced him back three full steps!

He was horrified. Qian Xunji was even stronger than the rumors claimed!

With Qian Xunji taking over the fight against Tang Zhen, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's pressure eased considerably.

He gave a cold snort and moved with a drifting, elusive grace. Rather than continue to trade blows with Tang Zhen, he turned and pounced on the Clear Sky Sect elders who were locked in battle with Spirit Hall's Soul Douluo.

He might not be able to beat Tang Zhen, but surely he could handle these elders at the Soul Douluo level.

What a joke!

The Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul was powerful, but it depended on who wielded it.

If it were Tang Chen or the others, that would be different. They were more than worthy of the title of the world's number one Weapon Martial Soul.

But in the hands of anyone else?

To be honest, forget competing with the Chen Family's Seven Kill Sword or the Coiling Dragon Staff wielded by Spirit Hall's sixth and seventh offerings—even the Soul Breaking Spear of the Breaking Clan might well be stronger.

Petals of the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum swirled through the air, razor-sharp, targeting the elders who were already wounded or had spent much of their Soul Power.

His actions immediately threw the Clear Sky Sect elders' formation into disarray.

At the same time, Sea Dragon Douluo moved.

There was no earth-shattering spectacle. He simply took one plain, unhurried step forward.

"Rumble—!"

It was as though the entire earth shook with that single step!

The stone slabs beneath his feet cracked at once, spiderweb-like fissures spreading for several yards.

The deep-blue Sea God Phantom appeared faintly behind him, and the endless sound of crashing waves seemed to come from the void.

Visible blue currents swirled around him. They were highly concentrated oceanic Soul Power, mixed with an aura of divinity.

"Tang Hao, Tang Xiao."

Sea Dragon Douluo's voice was as cold as ice that had lain for ten thousand years. His gaze fixed on the brothers who were attacking Ghost Douluo:

"The grudge from the Star Dou Great Forest—you'll repay it today."

Before his voice had even faded, his imposing figure vanished from where he stood.

In the next instant, as if by teleportation, he appeared beside Tang Hao. A fist covered in deep-blue dragon scales, its muscles knotted and bulging, smashed toward Tang Hao's chest without any flourish, carrying the terrifying force of an entire mountain range collapsing into the sea!

The air compressed around his fist with a piercing sonic boom, and faint dragon roars seemed to follow in its wake!

Tang Hao's pupils shrank.

He felt an irresistible force and a suffocating pressure from the ocean bearing down on him.

It was as if he were facing not a man, but an entire raging sea!

With a furious roar, he raised the Clear Sky Hammer before his chest and poured all his Soul Power into it without holding anything back.

"Rumble—!!!"

Sea Dragon Douluo's fist slammed squarely into the face of the enormous Clear Sky Hammer!

Tang Hao was struck as if by lightning. His whole body shuddered, and the bones in his arms groaned under the strain.

He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward like a kite with its strings cut, smashing hard into a distant stone wall and sending rubble scattering everywhere!

"Second Brother!" Tang Xiao's eyes nearly split with rage. He tried to rush to Tang Hao's aid, but Ghost Douluo Gui Mei had seized the chance to break free, and Sea Dragon Douluo had already closed in again. The two of them kept Tang Xiao firmly occupied.

The situation had reversed in an instant!

With two peak powerhouses entering the fray, the pressure on the Clear Sky Sect multiplied at once.

They might have some trouble fighting two opponents at once.

But one-on-one? Heh. Then the other side was the one who should be worried.

Whatever else might be said, Sea Dragon Douluo and Gui Mei were both bona fide Titled Douluo.

And not weak ones, either.

If they couldn't beat Soul Douluo in a one-on-one fight, they might as well find a building and jump off it.
