Mighty War Soul Hammer, Majestic Clear Sky Sect

Clear Sky Sect, inside the sect leader's grand hall.

"Wonderful! It's Ancestor Tang Chen..."

The moment the name "Tang Chen" appeared on the Sky Screen, the older generation of the Clear Sky Sect instantly reddened their eyes, hot tears spilling down their faces.

He was the unquestionable pillar holding up their Clear Sky Sect. It was precisely because Tang Chen had existed that their sect had been able to firmly occupy the throne of the world's number one sect.

The Clear Sky Hammer was merely a top-tier martial soul, far inferior to the god-level martial soul, the Six-Winged Angel. Without the many earthshaking arts Tang Chen had created—the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, the Great Sumeru Hammer, the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, and more—their Clear Sky Sect could never have possessed such a resounding and unshakable reputation as the world's number one sect.

An elder with graying hair rose excitedly, his voice trembling beyond control. "Sect Leader, the Sky Screen is reviewing our ancestor. That means Ancestor Tang Chen is still alive in this world! I ask that you permit us to leave the mountain and search for him!"

The other elders immediately echoed him, their emotions surging with fury that had been suppressed for years. "That's right! Our Clear Sky Sect has sealed itself away and endured in silence for so many years, suffering endless humiliation—all because of Spirit Hall!"

"Mighty War Soul Hammer, majestic Clear Sky Sect! As long as Ancestor Tang Chen returns, our Clear Sky Sect can rise to its peak once more! Then Spirit Hall must repay its blood debt with blood and pay a terrible price!"

Inside the grand hall, every elder desperately wanted to leave the mountain at once, seek revenge, and bring Tang Chen back.

Tang Xiao, seated at the head of the hall, remained composed. He immediately raised a hand to suppress the uproar. "Everyone, calm down. More than anyone, I want to find Grandfather. More than anyone, I want to wash away the sect's humiliation!"

"But we absolutely cannot leave the mountain rashly. Our Clear Sky Sect has remained hidden for many years. If we make a high-profile move now, we will only expose ourselves and draw Spirit Hall's encirclement. The losses would outweigh the gains!"

Tang Xiao slowly revealed his plan. "In my opinion, once we learn Grandfather's whereabouts, we should act in secret and quietly bring him back to the sect."

"As long as Grandfather returns, our Clear Sky Sect will have the confidence to face anything! We can settle the old accounts afterward and make Spirit Hall pay the price. It won't be too late then!"

Upon hearing this, the restless hearts of the elders immediately calmed.

Although they wished they could leave the mountain at once to find Tang Chen and erase the sect's years of humiliation, they also knew that the continent was vast, and no one knew where Tang Chen was now.

Rather than rush about blindly and alert the enemy, it would be better to wait patiently.

Once the Sky Screen continued its review and exposed Tang Chen's exact location, they could move in secret and welcome the Clear Sky Sect's strongest ancestor back to the sect in one stroke.

At that time, when the Clear Sky Sect returned to its peak, all the resentment accumulated over the years would erupt at once. Every blood debt owed by Spirit Hall would be repaid a hundredfold, a thousandfold!

"Good! Then we will follow the Sect Leader's arrangements!"

The elders nodded one after another, suppressing the impulse and fury in their hearts as they silently committed the goals of finding Tang Chen and taking revenge on Spirit Hall to memory.

Just then, the Sky Screen changed once more.

[TOP 8: Tang Chen.]

[Identity: Former former sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect, King of Slaughter, high priest of the God of Asura, host of the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King.]

[Martial Soul: Clear Sky Hammer.]

[Title: Clear Sky Douluo.]

[Soul Power Level: Level 99 (Peak Demigod)]

[Soul Rings: Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red.]

[Tang Chen stood alongside Qian Daoliu as the twin mountains of the Soul Master world. His talent was unprecedented, and without the assistance of any Deity, he cultivated alone to become a Level 99 Peerless Douluo.]

[He also created numerous earthshaking arts, including the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, the Great Sumeru Hammer, and Ring Detonation. His talent surpassed Qian Daoliu's and Bo Saixi's, making him the only one among the three with the possibility of becoming a god.]

"It's Tang Chen!"

Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi sighed. Neither of them had seen Tang Chen for many years.

Who knew what he was like now...

Hm! Wait, something was wrong. King of Slaughter?

Qian Daoliu froze, while Bibi Dong and Tang Hao stared in disbelief.

Qian Daoliu had never met the King of Slaughter, but he knew that title. The other man was the ruler of Slaughter City.

Bibi Dong and Tang Hao had personally met the King of Slaughter, yet they had failed to recognize that he was actually Tang Chen, who had vanished years ago.

And what the hell were the God of Asura's high priest and the host of the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King?

How had the dignified high priest of a Deity ended up having his body taken over by some bat beast?

Everyone rested their chins in their hands...

Everyone pondered...

Everyone was confused...

Very soon, the Sky Screen answered their questions.

In the footage, Tang Chen appeared to be fighting someone.

[Soul Skill:...]

Just kidding!

Ever since breaking through to Titled Douluo, Tang Chen had never used a soul skill again.

The footage continued to scroll.

[Divine Slaughter's Domain]

[Clear Sky ultimate art: Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.]

[Clear Sky Nine Absolutes: Void, Seal, Pierce, Penetrate, Bind, Shock, Break, Kill, Collapse.]

[Clear Sky Avatar.]

[Clear Sky ultimate arts: Great Sumeru Hammer, Ring Detonation.]

[Divine Slaughter's Domain evolved: Asura Domain.]

[Divine artifact Asura Sword: Asura Slash.]

Tang Chen's strength left everyone shaken.

But before anyone could speak, a blood-red bat suddenly appeared on the Sky Screen.

At that moment, Tang Chen was undergoing the God of Asura's eighth trial.

Yet at the critical moment, the Rakshasa God's divine consciousness swept in without warning, causing Tang Chen to lose focus.

Under the interference of the Rakshasa God's divine consciousness, the long-hidden Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King suddenly attacked. It transformed into a streak of bloody light, burrowed into Tang Chen's body, and frantically devoured his will.

Tang Chen's eyes shifted from clarity to crimson, while his aura changed from profound and domineering to violent and bloodthirsty.

Before long, Tang Chen, once invincible across the land, had completely fallen into the King of Slaughter of Slaughter City—a puppet whose body had been taken over by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King.

[Tang Chen accidentally arrived in Slaughter City while pursuing the path to godhood and discovered the God of Asura's inheritance. Yet just as he was about to complete the eighth trial, the Rakshasa God struck against him!]

[Interfered with by the Rakshasa God's divine consciousness and then parasitized and controlled by the Blood-Red Nine-Headed Bat King, Tang Chen ultimately became the King of Slaughter. After decades of parasitism, the Bat King's deadly poison had seeped into his bones, and Tang Chen's body had long been riddled with wounds.]

[Furthermore, the Rakshasa God severely damaged Tang Chen's soul, completely severing his hope of becoming a god. With his life force exhausted, Tang Chen was about to reach the end of his life.]

Everyone: "Huh???"

Well, damn.

If they remembered correctly, wasn't Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall, the inheritor of the Rakshasa God?

And what exactly had Tang Chen done to provoke the Rakshasa God into personally acting against him?

Well, damn. This was some truly shocking gossip!

Not only was everyone curious about this question, even Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and Bo Saixi were utterly stunned.

Why would a lofty Deity lower herself to strike at Tang Chen behind the scenes?

Shock, confusion, fear, and bewilderment—countless emotions intertwined and churned within Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and Bo Saixi.
