Ah Yin's Sacrifice, Tang Hao's Severe Wounding of Qian Xunji Exposed? Qian Daoliu: I'll Grind Your Bones to Ash!

The Fire Dragon King's remnant soul also leaned closer, its dragon eyes narrowing slightly:

"Clear Sky Hammer?

That broken hammer dared call itself 'the force that settles heaven and earth'?

Before the Dragon Clan of old, this kind of power was nothing more than brute force."

Lan Yu stood with his hands behind his back and smiled faintly.

"In this era, he was indeed considered someone formidable."

At the same time, the entire continent erupted into an uproar.

Wuhun Hall, Consecration Hall.

Qian Daoliu's face turned livid. He suddenly crushed the armrest in his hand and gritted his teeth.

"Tang Hao!

That wretch actually ranked tenth?

If even he could make the list, then I..."

Inside the Papal Hall.

Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, a cold gleam flashing through her violet pupils.

"Tenth place?

After disappearing for so many years, you really weren't dead.

Still, this ranking was rather interesting."

In a cave behind the waterfall on the back mountain of Holy Soul Village.

Tang Hao was drinking before Ah Yin. Upon hearing the Ranking Screen's voice, he abruptly raised his head.

His face was full of disbelief as he muttered:

"Me?

Tenth?"

Yu Xiaogang trembled with excitement and pointed at the Ranking Screen as he shouted:

"Did you see that?

This is the Haotian Douluo!

My theory wasn't wrong. He was the ultimate power-attack type!"

Sea God Island.

Bo Saixi remained calm, only slightly surprised.

"Tang Chen's grandson?

Tenth place... It seemed there were far more powerful experts on this continent than I had imagined."

Just as everyone was discussing it heatedly, the Ranking Screen changed once more.

The golden words slowly faded, replaced by an impassioned scene.

Golden light gathered above the Ranking Screen, and the image abruptly unfolded.

In a dim forest, the smell of blood hung heavily in the air.

Tang Hao knelt on one knee, holding a swaddled infant in his arms as the baby wailed.

Before Tang Hao, tears filled Ah Yin's eyes as the sacrificial field locked onto him.

It deflected all the attacks from the Wuhun Hall group.

"Hao... Promise me you'll take good care of our child..."

Ah Yin's voice was weak but resolute. Her ethereal hand gently brushed across the infant's face.

"Let him... grow up safely."

"Ah Yin!

No—!"

Tang Hao's eyes turned bloodshot, and his entire body shook violently.

Ah Yin smiled faintly. Her figure transformed into countless specks of blue light that flowed into Tang Hao's body like fireflies.

In an instant, an unimaginably terrifying wave of Soul Power erupted from Tang Hao.

Nine Soul Rings—two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red—circled his body.

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring... Ah Yin!

Aaaahhh—!"

Tang Hao threw back his head and roared. His Soul Power surged as he successfully broke through to become a Title Douluo.

He held Tang San tightly in one arm. With his other hand clenched in the air, an incomparably massive Clear Sky Hammer appeared out of nowhere, its body humming as killing intent soared into the sky.

"Tang Hao!

You can't escape!"

Three figures tore through the air from above.

The leader wore golden robes. He was Qian Xunji, Wuhun Hall's former Pope, followed by Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei.

Qian Xunji looked down at Tang Hao, his eyes filled with greed.

"A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast sacrificed itself to give you that Soul Ring. What a waste.

But it didn't matter. Once I killed you, the soul bone would still be mine."

Yue Guan laughed sinisterly.

"So what if you broke through to Title Douluo?

Today would be the day you died."

Gui Mei said nothing, black mist swirling around his body.

Tang Hao slowly lifted his head. Nothing remained in his eyes but madness and killing intent.

"You... will all die!"

Before his words had even faded, Tang Hao shot forward.

All nine rings detonated!

The Clear Sky Hammer carried the force to destroy heaven and earth as it smashed toward Qian Xunji and the other two.

Qian Xunji's expression changed. In his haste, he raised his Angel Martial Soul to block the strike, while Yue Guan and Gui Mei closed in from either side.

Boom—!

With the first hammer strike, the bones in Qian Xunji's arms shattered. Blood sprayed from his mouth as he was sent flying like a kite with its string cut.

"How was this possible?!"

Yue Guan was horrified. Countless golden petals swirled as they shot toward Tang Hao.

Yet they failed to even touch the edge of the Clear Sky Hammer and were blown back again and again by the hammer's gale.

Gui Mei turned into black mist, attempting to launch a sneak attack from behind.

Tang Hao did not even turn around as he swung his hammer backward.

Gui Mei screamed. Half his shoulder collapsed, and the black mist scattered in all directions.

"Second hammer!"

Tang Hao brought his hammer down. The ground split apart, and every tree within a hundred zhang was reduced to dust.

Qian Xunji barely managed to unleash his sixth Soul Skill, but the hammer's gale crushed it directly. He slammed into the ground like a pile of mush, barely clinging to life.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with terror. Neither dared approach again. Dragging the severely wounded Qian Xunji with them, they fled madly.

Tang Hao did not pursue them. He landed on the ground, and Tang San in his arms had somehow stopped crying. The baby gazed at his father with pitch-black eyes.

Tang Hao lowered his head and looked at the infant, muttering hoarsely:

"Xiao San... Your father has avenged the first debt of blood for your mother."

The scene on the Ranking Screen froze on Tang Hao's blood-soaked silhouette, cradling the infant and gripping the Clear Sky Hammer, before slowly fading away.

Within Sunset Forest.

Jia Lin curled her lip in disgust.

"Gaining power through a woman's sacrifice, and this was supposed to be a peak powerhouse?

How embarrassing."

The Fire Dragon King's remnant soul snorted as well.

"He merely relied on the violent energy released by a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrifice to forcibly exhaust his potential.

Such a crude method of borrowing power could not even withstand a single strike from a divine weapon in the God Realm."

Lan Yu remained calm as he said faintly:

The Grand Sumeru Hammer's Ring Detonation technique had always been a reckless method that injured the enemy for a thousand while harming oneself for eight hundred.

"The hidden injuries in his body were left behind at that time."

Within Sunset Forest, Jia Lin looked at the Ranking Screen and curled her lip.

"That hammer was pretty fierce, but this Ah Yin... She was Blue Silver Grass that sacrificed herself?

Then by that logic, this child could be considered your descendant?"

Lan Yu smiled faintly.

"If one insisted on making the connection, there was some relation."

"This Ah Yin obtained bloodline resources from me by accident twenty thousand years ago.

Her bloodline then evolved, and she cultivated all the way until her cultivation reached a hundred thousand years."

Lan Yu did not mention that Qian Xunji was actually his descendant as well.

Looking at the Ranking Screen, Lan Yu felt somewhat helpless.

Qian Xunji...

There was really no easy way to judge that man.

If he did not want Bibi Dong to elope with Yu Xiaogang, there were plenty of better ways to handle it.

Yet he had chosen the secret chamber.

Then he chose to trust the darkened Bibi Dong, ensuring that he would die without even a burial place.

His bloodline, along with his Martial Soul, was devoured and became nourishment for Bibi Dong to begin the Rakshasa God Trial.

As for Ah Yin?

Lan Yu cared even less.

At most, she counted as an unintelligent member of his Blue Silver Clan.

She chose to follow Tang Hao and met such an end. She had only herself to blame.

Wuhun Hall, Papal Hall.

Bibi Dong watched Qian Xunji's miserable state as he was sent flying on the Ranking Screen, a mocking sneer curling at her lips.

"Qian Xunji, your incompetence back then was now being displayed for the entire continent to see."

Inside the Consecration Hall.

Qian Daoliu's killing intent surged. Golden angel wings abruptly spread behind him.

"Tang Hao!

The scene of you disgracing Wuhun Hall was actually exposed to the public by this Ranking Screen!

I will grind your bones to ash!"
