Besides, Tang Hao wanted to kill him. Talking about martial ethics with the enemy? Qian Xunfeng must be out of his mind.
On the sea, Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer was almost smoking from being swung, but Qian Xunfeng always used the power of the sea to maintain a certain distance from Tang Hao.
The Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky, the Sha Character Technique.
The Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky, the Breaking Word Technique.
Tang Hao unleashed two of the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky in succession. Relying on his advantage of attack power far exceeding that of Qian Xunfeng, he used the Sha Character Technique from the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky —a special force-generating method that can disperse the hammer force of the Clear Sky Hammer —to shatter all the small bubbles that came from several meters in front of him.
Before the small bubbles behind him could be replaced, Tang Hao once again Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky Breaking Technique. All the power of the Clear Sky Hammer was concentrated into one point, and a blood-red force pierced through all the small bubbles, heading towards Qian Xunfeng.
Qian Xunfeng had already reached the level of a god, and he was constantly focused on Tang Hao. He knew the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate techniques better than anyone else. When he saw the incoming blood-red energy shockwave, he narrowly avoided it.
However, in order to dodge the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky Breaking Word Technique, Qian Xunfeng paused his Endless Sea Burial technique slightly, and his pulling motion with Tang Hao also stopped.
Tang Hao keenly seized this opportunity, roared, and his murderous aura surged forth, materializing once again and covering his body. The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand spun continuously, dispersing the Endless Sea Burial. The distance between him and Qian Xunfeng was constantly closing.
Just one hammer blow, just one hammer blow! As long as this kid takes one of my blows, he'll be crippled if he Undying, and the outcome of this test will change. I, Tang Hao, will be able to change my destiny!
Tang Hao's pupils widened to their maximum, staring intently at Qian Xunfeng, whose image was constantly enlarging in his eyes.
"Xiao Feng!"
Bo Saixi also realized the danger, and her heart jumped into her throat again. Xie Yue and Qiangu Liuyun were also extremely worried, while Ning Rongrong, Tian Yue, Bai Chenxiang, and Dugu Yan almost jumped up.
That's it?
Qian Xunfeng remained calm and once again used the Sea God Martial Soul to manipulate the sea. This time, instead of summoning bubbles of varying sizes, he directly mobilized a large water column.
A water column with a radius of several meters, like a whale taking a breath, surged up from the sea surface and completely engulfed Qian Xunfeng's figure.
"It's useless! You think this little bit of seawater can stop my Clear Sky Hammer? Prepare to die!"
Tang Hao was completely unconcerned about Qian Xunfeng's defense. It was just a small water column. If it were a tsunami, he would be more wary. He raised the Clear Sky Hammer high and smashed it towards the wave, activating the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky's Quake Technique!
"Bang bang bang bang bang bang!"
The water column exploded like firecrackers, layer by layer from bottom to top, bursting into dazzling water fireworks in mid-air. Water splashed everywhere, and Qian Xunfeng's figure could not be found!
"Young Master!"
The Seven Holy Pillars of Sea God, guarding Douluo, exclaimed in surprise, wondering: Could Qian Xunfeng really have been shaken by Tang Hao's hammer and become part of this water firework?
Compared to the horrified Seven Holy Pillars of Sea God Guardian Douluo and the six members of the Spirit Hall, Bo Saixi was calm this time. She looked in one direction, but strangely, there was nothing there.
On the sea, Tang Hao frowned. He was confident in the destructive power of his Clear Sky Hammer, believing that no one below the gods on the continent, including Sea God Island, could rival him. However, he shouldn't have been able to blow up Qian Xunfeng with a single blow. Yet, he couldn't sense Qian Xunfeng's presence, nor was the other party hiding underwater.
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, Tang Hao. I'm unharmed."
Not far away on the sea, Qian Xunfeng slowly rose to the surface. He was not injured, and even his hairstyle was intact. The Golden Trident Mark on his forehead had dimmed.
"How did you dodge my hammer strike?" Tang Hao was somewhat incredulous that Qian Xunfeng was completely unharmed. He knew that Qian Xunfeng's "Quake Technique" from the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky could spread the power of the Clear Sky Hammer as sound waves, making it a wide-range attack. Even if the damage was reduced due to the dispersed power, Qian Xunfeng shouldn't have been able to block it without injury, especially since Tang Hao's mental energy hadn't detected it.
"Oh, you mean this? The Heart of the Sea God's Cosmic Protective Shield. With the sea as its cover, even a level 100 Deity wouldn't be able to find me."
"Actually, if you were the High Priestess of the Sea God, you could sense me, but it seems you haven't mastered the Sea God's Light, which means you lack loyalty as the High Priest."
Qian Xunfeng pointed to his brow, revealing the answer to Tang Hao, showing no concern that Tang Hao could crack his hidden method.
Tang Hao trembled with rage, his mind reeling. He was at a loss for what to do. From beginning to end, Qian Xunfeng had been confident of victory. With his so-called Cosmic Protective Shield skill, he could have easily hidden in the sea for the time it takes to burn an incense stick. Tang Hao simply... had no chance of winning...
How can I counter this attack? My prized Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky, Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, and even the Ring Detonation are all useless...
With half a minute left, Tang Hao suddenly had an idea. One of his nine Soul Skill was a locking Soul Skill, which could be used to counter Qian Xunfeng's underhanded and shameless fighting style. He had been using the Great Sumeru Hammer to Ring Detonation too much, always relying on brute force to overcome all laws and suppress everything with power, and had gradually forgotten about the Soul Skill of his Soul Ring.
"Eighth Soul Skill, Sky-Rending Strike!"
Tang Hao's Eighth Soul Ring Clear Sky Hammer lit up, and the space around him cracked as the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand disappeared into a ball of dark light. The next moment, a huge Clear Sky Hammer formed of dark light smashed down towards Qian Xunfeng in mid-air.
Sky-Rending Strike is a lock-on Soul Skill. Even if Soul Master uses Soul Skill such Teleportation or spatial traversal, this Soul Skill can still lock onto the target within a certain range.
Boom!
The sea churned, and a muffled sound echoed between heaven and earth. The Clear Sky Hammer collided with the Sea God Martial Soul, Qian Xunfeng was sent flying backward, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Tang Hao chased after Qian Xunfeng in the direction he had flown off, while simultaneously reaching out to recall the Clear Sky Hammer back into his hand. He knew that his eighth Soul Skill was simply not enough to kill Qian Xunfeng, not even to severely injure Qian Xunfeng. But as long as he could inflict some damage on Qian Xunfeng and restrict his movements, that would be enough.
"Great Sumeru Hammer, all nine rings explode simultaneously!!"
Tang Hao roared, and all nine Soul Ring beneath his feet turned golden. All nine Soul Ring shattered, and all the Soul Power gathered on the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Hammer shone brightly, as if it had become a golden sun.
The energy fluctuations gathered there were so intense that even Bo Saixi felt somewhat suffocated. It's likely that if the Hell White Tiger had already reached god-level during the three battles of Jialing Pass in the original story, had clashed head-on with Tang Hao, it would have been sent flying by Tang Hao's all-out hammer blow.
With the combined power of the nine rings exploding, Tang Hao's Divine Slaughter's Domain overwhelmed Qian Xunfeng's Sea God Domain, completely locking onto Qian Xunfeng with his aura.
