The Clear Sky Hammer Flew from His Hand-Tang San's True Killing Move Was Here
At the breach in the collapsed city wall on the right side of the Meridian Gate, a violent bone Dragon Astral Force whipped up a sky full of rubble.
The level 95 Bone Douluo Gu Rong transformed into a hundred-zhang-long giant bone dragon, sweeping across the Imperial Street with a single tail swing. He shattered the bones of hundreds of royal heavy-armored knights who rushed up from the outside, along with their horses, and forcefully built a wall of white bones outside the Dragon-Severing Gate, firmly blocking the encirclement by the Imperial Knight Corps and the Clear Sky Sect's hidden agents.
"Xiao Wu, catch her!"
Inside the gate, in the plaza, the Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer, accompanied by rolling crimson lightning, crashed down.
Su Chen suddenly exerted force with his left arm, steadily throwing Qian Renxue, whose Soul Power was exhausted and whose golden hair was stained with blood, towards the gap in the city wall on the right.
Qian Renxue felt the domineering heat around her waist suddenly disappear, and a sense of panic flashed through her heart. She subconsciously reached out to grab Su Chen's clothes, but her fingertips only brushed against a piece of cold black fabric.
A pink halo flashed above the gap, and Xiao Wu, with four Soul Ring —two yellow, one purple, and one black—circling beneath her feet, Teleportation into the air and steadily caught Qian Renxue's falling body. Using the momentum, she flipped over and landed beside Ning Fengzhi inside the gap.
Xiao Wu shielded Qian Renxue behind her, then turned to look at the rebel assassins pushing their Soul-Breaking Crossbows back onto the surrounding passageways. A cold glint flashed in her eyes. "Su Chen, leave her to me and Sect Master Ning. You can focus on killing that devil! Zhu Zhuqing, Yanyan, come with me and clear out the crossbowmen on both sides of the city walls. We absolutely cannot let them distract Su Chen!"
"Clear!"
Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan responded in unison.
Three Soul Ring pulsed beneath Zhu Zhuqing's feet, her figure transforming into a black afterimage that darted close to the ground. The Netherworld Hundred Claws flashed with cold light as she cut into the eastern horse path, severing the throats of more than ten heavily armored crossbowmen in a few breaths.
Dugu Yan then opened her mouth and spewed out a large cloud of dense, phosphorescent, amethyst Poison Mist, engulfing the hundred or so assassins on the west side of the city wall who were about to pull the trigger. Wherever the Poison Mist passed, screams of agony rose and fell, and the entire crossbow formation was paralyzed on the spot.
At the top of the gap, Ning Rongrong held up the radiant Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda with both hands and proclaimed in a clear voice, "The Nine Treasures Have Names, the Fourth: Defense!"
Building upon the previous three divine lights of strength, speed, and soul, the fourth nine-colored defensive divine light traversed more than ten feet of ruins and precisely entered Su Chen's body.
After refining the Aromatic Silk Beauty and reaching the peak of level 38, she fully activated the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, increasing Su Chen's strength, speed, defense, and Soul Power by a full 50%.
Standing beside Ning Rongrong Ye Lingling Entanglement a hand seal, and a Red-Gold Dragon-Pattern Begonia bloomed in her palm. Warm, pure yang life light rained across space and fell on Su Chen's shoulder, locking the surging blood and qi around his body.
With no more worries, Su Chen's level 52 Pure Yang Dragon Blood completely boiled within him.
In mid-air, Tang San's Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer, gripped tightly in both hands, had already slammed down less than three feet above Su Chen's head. The jet-black, ten-thousand-year-old Ferocious Beast Soul Ring on the hammer shone with intense blood-red light. Before the violent hammer pressure even touched the ground, the Blue Stone five zhang in diameter beneath Su Chen's feet had already collapsed into dust.
Tang San's eyes were bloodshot, like those of a demon weeping blood, and he roared fiercely, "Let's see how arrogant you can be now!"
He swung the ancient Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer with his left hand and smashed it down on Su Chen's head. Dozens of Dark Bloodsucking Vine as thick as buckets surged from the crevices of his right arm, intertwining in mid-air to form a black and red thorn cage a hundred feet wide, sealing off the four sides of the Meridian Gate Square and forcing Su Chen to confront him head-on.
Su Chen looked up at the rapidly enlarging crimson hammer, showing no intention of retreating, and sneered, "Using Twin Martial Souls simultaneously? Relying on devouring human blood to forcibly suppress the conflict Martial Soul, you really think you're something special!"
With Ning Rongrong's 50% boost to all attributes and Ye Lingling's life support, Su Chen's bones emitted a series of cracking sounds.
The Chaos Ancestral Dragon Ice-Fire Golden Body was activated to its limit, its arms covered with crimson-gold dragon scales, and eight four-meter-long, thirty-thousand-year-old Ice-Fire Dark-Gold Dragon Emperor Spear on its back crossed and joined together, fiercely blocking the Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer that was crashing down on its head.
The Clash of Gold and Iron resounded in the Meridian Gate Square, almost tearing eardrums apart.
A violent shockwave, mixed with red and white ice and fire and black and red blood lightning, exploded in a ring. Dozens of rebel soldiers who had no time to retreat were sent flying more than ten feet away by the aftershocks and died at the foot of the palace wall without even uttering a sound.
Su Chen's feet sank half a foot into the gravel ground, and he felt a heavy, cold force, mixed with the violent resentment of a thousand-year-old Ferocious Beast, surging wildly along the Dragon Emperor Spear.
Tang San, who was in mid-air, was thrown high into the air by the force of the recoil.
"Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer!"
Using the force of the recoil, Tang San forcibly twisted his waist in mid-air, his arms bulging like Black-Purple Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer pythons. He used the force of the impact to his advantage and smashed down again with the momentum of the rotation.
One hammer blow, two hammer blows, ten hammer blows, thirty hammer blows.
Tang San went completely mad, his right hand manipulating the hundred-foot -Dark Bloodsucking Vine to continuously drain the blood of the remaining soldiers around him to replenish his own consumption, while his left hand pushed the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, to its limit.
Thick, almost tangible blood-red energy fields emanated from the hammerhead, clinging tightly to Su Chen's aura. Each hammer blow was more powerful than the last.
The dense, storm-like roar shook the entire Heaven Dou Imperial Palace violently, and the glazed golden tiles on the roof of the palace, which spanned a hundred feet in radius, shattered and crumbled in pieces.
Su Chen stood at the center of the Blood Fiend Force Field, five deep, ten-thousand-year-old black rings flashing wildly. His fists were enveloped in Pure Yang Ancestral Dragon True Fire, which had been amplified by thirty percent. Together with the eight thirty-thousand-year-old Ice-Fire Dark-Gold Dragon Emperor Spear on his back, he relentlessly clashed head-on with the increasingly heavy Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer.
The forty-eighth blow, the fifty-sixth blow.
The violent hammer wind swept across the ground, directly collapsing half of the corner tower wall on the west side of the Meridian Gate, which was ten zhang high, and tens of thousands of kilograms of city bricks crashed down into the dust.
By the time Su Chen had mastered the Chaos Ancestral Dragon Ice-Fire Golden Body, his arms were still sore and swollen from the continuous bombardment of the number one Tool Martial Soul in the world, which was also equipped with a ten-thousand-year-old Ferocious Beast Soul Ring. The crimson-gold dragon scales on the tiger's mouth of his fists burst open with fine bloody cuts, and hot blood seeped out from between his fingers.
Sparks flew from the surface of the eight dark Emperor Spear on his back, emitting a series of buzzing vibrations.
Tang San on the other side suffered an even more devastating loss.
Forcibly activating Twin Martial Souls simultaneously is already against common sense. Adding to that the terrifying backlash load of the Chaotic Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer in its later stages, the flesh of his left arm had already ripped apart inch by inch, exposing the bare white bone. Thick, blackish-red blood kept overflowing from his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth.
Amidst the billowing dust and smoke of the collapsing city walls, Tang San roared like a wild beast, "Sixty-fourth hammer! Su Chen, kneel down!"
His Meridians swelled and bulged in disarray, pouring all the power of the level 51 Evil Soul King, along with the immense force accumulated from the previous 63 hammer blows, into the Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer in his left hand, transforming it into a blood-red meteor that crashed down on Su Chen.
"You? You're a piece of trash, neither human nor ghost!"
Su Chen's eyes flashed with fierce light, his arms glowed with golden dragon scales, and the eight Ice-Fire Dark-Gold Dragon Emperor Spear, condensing the pure yang and profound ice essence of his entire body, met the sixty-fourth hammer head-on.
The Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer and the eight Dragon Emperor Spear collided violently in mid-air.
Under the impact of this collision that surpassed the limits of Soul Emperor, several cracks, each about an inch long, were forcibly smashed into the surfaces of the two 30,000-year-old Dark Emperor Spear on the left side of Su Chen's back. The violent blood-fiend shockwave caused Su Chen's knees to sink slightly, and more than ten deep trenches were shattered beneath his feet.
Tang San's Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer was also deflected by the immense force of the combined pure yang and profound ice. His entire left arm snapped and twisted with a crack, and the blood-red hammer flew out of his hand, crashing heavily into the ruins of the distant city wall.
Seeing Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer slip from his grasp, Ning Rongrong, standing at the breach, couldn't help but shout with delight, "Captain won!"
The Blood-Colored Clear Sky Hammer flew out of their hands, and the smoke and dust and waves of ice and fire obscured the vision of both sides.
Tang San, who was less than three feet away from Su Chen, suddenly unleashed a hysterical, venomous grin on his twisted face covered in black blood.
The sixty-fourth strike of the Chaotic Cloak was, from the very beginning, merely a bait he used to deflect the Dragon Emperor Spear and close the distance.
