The Third Asura Trial: Wu Battles Hao and Lin

As soon as the battle began, Tang San wasted no time unleashing Blue Silver Evil Demon Mirror: Annihilation and Killer Whale Shattered-Tooth Slash, mercilessly attacking Huo Yuhao.

Dark red beams and sharp fragments immediately shot toward Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao promptly used Ice Meteor and Octagonal Omnidirectional Spike, calmly dealing with Tang San's first wave of attacks.

Meteors and spikes collided with beams and fragments. Sparks from the explosions rained down onto the Blood Sea, splashing up ripples across its surface.

"Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Break Formula!"

Seeing Huo Yuhao easily neutralize his first wave of attacks, Tang San immediately summoned the Clear Sky Hammer in his left hand and fiercely brought it crashing down toward Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao held his breath and focused. Golden light flickered in his eyes as spiritual power, soul power, and bloodline power instantly gathered in his right fist.

He swung his golden fist straight up to meet the attack. The condensed power erupted, and he forcibly blocked Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer.

Tang San and Huo Yuhao were both driven back several steps by the force of their collision. After steadying himself, Tang San saw that Huo Yuhao remained completely unruffled and snorted coldly.

"Killing God Domain: Asura Hell!"

Tang San immediately released the Asura Domain. A chilling killing intent erupted from his body, causing even the surrounding Blood Sea to stir with faint ripples.

"Wait, why am I getting hit too?"

Tang Wulin, who was dodging Xiao Wu's Explosive Eight-Stage Throw nearby, felt the chilling aura of the Asura Domain and immediately activated his Golden Dragon Body to ward off the domain's corrosive effects.

"You're exactly who I'm hitting. Take this, Soft Bone Lock!"

As Xiao Wu used Teleportation to close in, Tang Wulin felt like crying without tears. In the end, he could only strike back helplessly.

Tang Wulin used the three-second invincible defense of Golden Dragon Tyrant Body, ignoring the effects of Xiao Wu's Soft Bone Lock. He then used Golden Dragon Roar to blast Xiao Wu away, affecting her spiritual power as well.

Only then did he gain a brief respite, and he turned his gaze toward Huo Yuhao.

Gray mist drifted around Huo Yuhao, and his entire body radiated an aura of death. The undead creatures of the Hades Domain greedily devoured the frigid killing intent of the Asura Domain, gradually gnawing away the domain around Tang San.

Clearly, Tang San had lost this round of domain confrontation against Huo Yuhao.

Once Xiao Wu came to her senses, she went to Tang San's side and suggested, "Brother, just use the Sea God's Trident against Huo Yuhao. Lend me the Asura Demon Sword first. I'll use it against Tang Wulin."

Watching Xiao Wu approach step by step with the Asura Demon Sword in hand, Tang Wulin's mouth twitched, and he silently grumbled, Are you really my biological mother?

With no other choice, Tang Wulin took out the Golden Dragon Spear to block her attacks, countering every move Xiao Wu made. Mother and son faced each other with weapons drawn, fighting at close range in an even standoff.

Meanwhile, Tang San held the Sea God's Trident and taunted Huo Yuhao.

"What are you spacing out for? Why aren't you taking out that dark thing of yours to fight me? Do you know that you still couldn't defeat me even if you did?"

The dark thing Tang San referred to was naturally the spoils Huo Yuhao had obtained from the Abyssal Sage—the Heavenly Saint Rift Abyss Halberd. Like the Sea God's Trident, it was a super divine artifact.

A smile tugged at Huo Yuhao's lips as he replied.

"To me, it makes no difference what weapon I use. I was only wondering what expression you'd wear if you were defeated by your own skill."

The smile on Tang San's face instantly vanished. He immediately realized something: Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes Martial Soul possessed an absurd soul skill similar to Oscar's Copy Mirror Image Sausage—Spiritual Replication Imprint.

Spiritual Replication Imprint could use spiritual power to perfectly duplicate the effects of all skills directly. Unlike Copy Mirror Image Sausage, it did not require prior authorization through the copied person's blood.

Huo Yuhao first used Soul Shock to briefly disrupt Tang San's mental state. Then, holding the Heaven-Burning Divine Pestle, he tapped it before him and drew rings of rippling golden light.

"Unfixed Storm."

The golden rings immediately wrapped around Tang San and Xiao Wu, successfully restricting their movements.

Huo Yuhao knew Tang Wulin did not want to attack Xiao Wu, which was why he used Unfixed Storm to restrain her.

Finally, Huo Yuhao used the talent skill bestowed by the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler through his Spirit Eyes Martial Soul—Light of Time and Space. It instantly froze Tang San and Xiao Wu's time, leaving them permanently motionless and unable to move.

Seeing that the battle was over, Tang Wulin immediately followed Huo Yuhao to Tang San and Xiao Wu. The four stood only a short distance apart.

"Brother Yuhao, the final result is that we won. Doesn't that mean their Asura God Trial has failed now?"

Faced with Tang Wulin's question, Huo Yuhao smiled calmly. "Even if they defeated us, that would not necessarily mean they had truly passed the Asura God Trial."

Tang Wulin, Tang San, and Xiao Wu immediately widened their eyes in astonishment.

Huo Yuhao explained, "The Asura God possesses the authority to judge, so he bestowed that authority upon Tang San. Tang San and I have never gotten along, so naturally he wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of me. In doing so, Tang San fell right into the Asura God's trap."

He then released Tang San and Xiao Wu from the Light of Time and Space after they had calmed down. Xiao Wu immediately asked in confusion, "I don't quite understand. Can you explain it in more detail?"

Huo Yuhao patiently explained, "Judgment represents fairness and justice, punishing evil and rewarding good. It is not about judging others solely according to one's personal preferences or abusing one's authority."

Tang Wulin suddenly understood. "Since Brother Yuhao did nothing wrong in the first place, this trial of judgment was itself a trap of power, meant to lure the two of you into the abyss in the end."

Xiao Wu smacked her lips. "Whoa, that's way too ruthless. You can't advance, and you can't retreat either. Then what exactly was the point of this duel?"

Tang Wulin guessed, "It was probably meant to make... Tang San understand Brother Yuhao and reconcile with him."

Good thing I reacted quickly. I almost gave myself away. I still can't let Mom know who I am.

Thinking this, Tang Wulin subconsciously tightened his grip on Huo Yuhao's hand.

Feeling Tang Wulin's warm strength, Huo Yuhao patted his head and looked at him with a gentle smile.

"Wulin is so smart. You understood it right away."

Seeing Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin acting so intimately, Tang San immediately grew angry. Looking displeased, he said, "Anyway, I will never understand him."

The next moment, the Asura God's voice suddenly echoed beside the four of them.

"Since that is the case, begin your trials again from the very first test."

As soon as the words fell, Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin were transported back to the Tang Sect by the Asura God, leaving only Tang San and Xiao Wu behind to undergo the long trial.
