This era belongs to the Clear Sky Sect. The previous patriarch of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Chen, the Clear Sky Douluo, was one of the three peerless Douluos at that time. His strength was slightly better than that of the other two peerless Douluos, Qian Daoliu and Bo Saixi.
Under Tang Chen's leadership, even the Spirit Hall and the Great Emperor had to show deference to the Clear Sky Sect.
When the Clear Sky Sect sent out wedding invitations to various forces, announcing the upcoming marriage of the next Clear Sky Douluo, all the forces were deeply moved.
It should be noted that although the Clear Sky Sect has other Titled Douluo, only one person in each generation can be granted the title of Haotian, and the previous Clear Sky Douluo was Tang Chen.
Now that the Clear Sky Sect is actually going to select the next Clear Sky Douluo, he will inevitably be the true leader of the Clear Sky Sect in the future. In addition, given the Clear Sky Sect's current status as the number one sect on the continent, all forces, whether friendly or hostile, will send people to participate.
Within a month, representatives from all the major powers on the continent had arrived. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan were also among the Upper Three Sects alongside the Clear Sky Sect and had a barely amicable relationship, even sent Titled Douluo.
Of course, attending the Clear Sky Douluo wedding was just the stated goal; the real purpose was to use the Clear Sky Sect's wedding as a platform to bring everyone together to discuss some matters.
These are unspoken rules, a tacit understanding shared by all factions.
The wedding of Tang Hao, the next Haotian Douluo, and the mysterious woman A Yin was held as scheduled. Under the gaze of all the guests, Tang Hao, with a happy face, connected A Yin, who was covered with a red veil, with a red silk ribbon. The two walked slowly towards Tang Zhen, the current sect leader of Haotian Sect, and his wife Li Ruyi, who were sitting in the main seat.
This is a wedding ceremony!
Once the ceremony is completed, the two will be husband and wife.
But just as the two were about to perform the wedding ceremony, a figure came crashing down from outside the hall like a cannonball, directly hitting Tang Zhen and his wife, who were sitting among the guests with kind smiles on their faces.
The moment the anomaly occurred, a glint of light flashed in Tang Zhen's old eyes, and a look of anger appeared on his face.
A vast amount of Soul Power surged from within him, catching the figure that was crashing down upon him.
Unfortunately, he underestimated the terrifying power carried by the figure that was hurtling towards him. The gentle barrier formed by his own Soul Power shattered instantly, and he was then smashed horizontally towards the couple by that figure.
Tang Zhen fared somewhat better, thanks to his powerful cultivation. Although he was in a sorry state, only the seat beneath him was shattered by the force transmitted through it.
However, Tang Zhen's wife, Li Ruyi, was in a tragic situation. As a Soul Shengxiu with healing-type Soul Master cultivation, her direct strength was quite weak. Before she could react, she was hit by the figure that crashed in horizontally.
The worst part was that the metal combat boots of the figure that slammed in horizontally hit his face squarely, causing a huge crack. Those who were closer could even faintly hear the fine cracking of bones. He passed out without uttering a sound.
Tang Zhen, regaining his senses, glanced at the figure that had been thrown at him. It was one of his clansmen. Although the clansman was not dead, his bones and muscles were shattered, and even his soul had been severely damaged. Without a heaven-defying opportunity, he would be a cripple for the rest of his life.
Who is it!
With murderous intent surging in his heart, Tang Zhen roared angrily, unleashing an even more Tyrannical Dao Soul Power than before. His powerful aura enveloped the entire Clear Sky Sect, making everyone recognize the current sect master of the Clear Sky Sect once again.
"It's confirmed that he's at level 95, but his aura is more complete than mine. He must have been at this level for quite some time, and he might even be about to advance to level 96."
If we were to spar, my chances of winning would be less than 30%. If it were to be a fight to the death, he would die, and I would be crippled!
Standing beside the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sword Douluo Chen Xin's pupils suddenly contracted as he secretly used his Soul Power to transmit his evaluation of Tang Zhen to Ning Fengzhi.
"Rumor has it that the previous generation of Haotian Douluo may have met with an accident. Unexpectedly, even without the previous generation of Haotian Douluo, the Haotian Sect still has such a foundation, plus the next generation of Haotian Douluo, Tang Hao."
It seems our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect must continue to maintain harmonious relations with the Upper Three Sects!
Ning Fengzhi's gaze lingered on the enraged Tang Zhen and Tang Hao, a fleeting look of resentment crossing his face.
As the young sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, he naturally harbored the ambition to lead the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to become the number one sect in the world.
Unfortunately, the power of the Clear Sky Sect was like a mountain pressing down on all forces, and even the powerful Spirit Hall was wary of it.
It was thought that after losing the previous generation's Haotian Douluo, Tang Chen, the Haotian Sect, even if it didn't decline, would at least become more restrained.
But who would have thought that its foundation was still so strong? How could Ning Fengzhi, who had always been ambitious, be content with this?
But even if you're unwilling to accept it, what can you do?
In this world, strength reigns supreme. Without sufficient strength, even the title of the number one sect in the world cannot be maintained; instead, it will become your own death warrant.
Many forces shared similar thoughts with Ning Fengzhi, but no one thought too much about it. They all turned their attention to the entrance of the main hall, wanting to see who dared to run wild on the Clear Sky Sect's territory!
As the host, Tang Zhen naturally wouldn't stoop to personally going down to check the situation, while elders had already sent people down to investigate.
Unfortunately, the few people who went down were soon sent flying back, just like the previous one. Each figure aimed precisely at Tang Zhen, but they were stopped by the Clear Sky Sect members who were prepared.
Because they were prepared, these people fared slightly better than the first one who was thrown up, but only slightly better; they would basically spend the rest of their lives bedridden.
"Court death!"
Tang Hao, who had just realized what was happening, was furious. He summoned his Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, and his eight Soul Ring surged as he was about to make a move, but he was stopped by his older Tang Xiao.
"You are the groom today; you should not be tainted with blood!"
Realizing the strength of the newcomers and noticing the approaching footsteps, the Clear Sky Sect refrained from sending anyone else down.
After all, we can't very well send an elder of such high status to handle this!
Of course, the most important thing was that the elders of the Clear Sky Sect wanted to make a move, but they were stopped by their own patriarch through a secret telepathic message. After glancing at the representatives of the numerous forces present, the elders, who were at the Titled Douluo level, decided to hold back.
The overall situation must be prioritized!
The dull footsteps gradually approached, and first, a wooden coffin appeared in everyone's eyes from the stone steps below. The wooden coffin was very ordinary and not made of any precious wood. In fact, it was quite simple, as if it was just some rotten planks nailed together haphazardly. The workmanship was quite rough, and it revealed many wide gaps.
Most importantly, the wooden coffin showed signs of decay and was covered in soil, indicating that it had been unearthed by humans and had been there for some years.
"Hiss!"
Upon seeing the wooden coffin gradually rise into view, the representatives of various forces couldn't help but gasp in shock, while many others felt a sense of schadenfreude.
On the other hand, the Clear Sky Sect's side had dark faces, and their overwhelming anger and chilling killing intent surged out, making the atmosphere in the entire hall even more oppressive. Even those below the Soul Shengxiu were suppressed to the point of being unable to move.
Everyone in the Clear Sky Sect was furious at this. The Clear Sky Douluo was the face of their sect, and now the next generation Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao, was getting married, but someone not only injured a disciple, but even carried a coffin up.
Not to mention doing this in front of all the powers in the world, it's not just a matter of losing face!
Tang Hao, the protagonist of today's event, was so angry that his eyes turned red and his face was contorted. If his elder Tang Xiao hadn't held him back, he probably would have already swung the Clear Sky Hammer and smashed it down.
"You beast!"
"Brother A Chou!"
As the wooden coffin slowly rose, a figure carrying it on his shoulder appeared before everyone's eyes.
Upon seeing that burly figure, an angry shout and a gasp of surprise rang out simultaneously, coming from Tang Zhen and Tang Feng.
That's right, the one carrying the coffin was none other than Tang Feng's brother, A Chou, also known as Wang Hao!
"Brother A Chou, you've gone mad!"
Compared to Tang Zhen, who was simply bursting with murderous intent, Tang Feng flashed in front of Wang Hao, her face showing urgency.
She knew that her older cousin had feelings for that Sister Ah Yin, and she was very unwilling for Sister Ah Yin to marry Tang Hao, but no matter how dissatisfied she was, she couldn't just act recklessly like this!
Now that this has happened, not to mention her ordinary status in the Clear Sky Sect, even as an elder, she can't protect her brother A Chou.
It's safe to say that Brother A Chou is doomed to die today!
After briefly showing his face to his older cousin Tang Feng, Wang Hao gently put down the wooden coffin he was carrying on his shoulder, placing it across the entrance of the Clear Sky Sect Sect's main hall.
This wooden coffin belonged to the original incarnation's mother. After her mother's death, the original incarnation couldn't afford a wooden coffin, so he dismantled his own wooden house and made this coffin himself.
At that time, the original body was very young. Although it was naturally strong, it could only manage to make such a simple wooden coffin for its mother to rest in peace.
In truth, as a son, Wang Hao did not want to disturb his mother's peaceful rest, even though she was his predecessor's mother. However, his predecessor's mother wanted to gain a proper status even on her deathbed, so that the Clear Sky Sect and Tang Zhen would acknowledge his identity and allow him to return to his ancestral home.
Due to a series of coincidences, the original owner did indeed join the Clear Sky Sect and become a glorious—low-ranking servant!
This is clearly not enough, far from enough!
Therefore, having inherited everything from his predecessor, he naturally has to fulfill his predecessor's mother's regrets!
"Today is Hao'er's joyous day; bloodshed is inappropriate. Take that beast away!"
Suppressing his anger and murderous intent, Tang Zhen secretly gave instructions to his eldest son in front of him.
Although he had long anticipated that this bastard would cause trouble today, and it was something he had orchestrated himself, he never expected that this bastard would go so far!
No matter how today's events are handled, their Clear Sky Sect will inevitably become a laughing stock for everyone in the world.
What a huge miscalculation!
Of course, Tang Zhen didn't really care much about Wang Hao, after all, he was just a level 30 Soul Master. What he was really wary of were the powerful figures from the Spirit Hall who were hiding in the shadows.
The disciples who went down to investigate earlier were all at level 50 or above. Clearly, this was not something that level 30 beast could have crippled. There must be other experts from the Spirit Hall hiding nearby.
Several other elders of the Clear Sky Sect shared the same thought as Tang Zhen, all turning their gazes to the bottom of the steps outside the main hall, searching for the figures of other enemies.
Unfortunately, no matter what methods they used, they gained nothing.
At that moment, Wang Hao made a move.
He took out a Storage Soul Tool from his robes, and with a surge of Soul Power, a luxurious divine sword radiating Holy Light appeared in his hand, which he then decisively stabbed into the ground beneath his feet.
" Angel Holy Sword! Stop him!"
Upon seeing the sacred sword, Tang Zhen's expression changed drastically. He roared and charged towards Wang Hao without regard for anything else.
The other elders of the Clear Sky Sect also changed their expressions drastically, filled with shock and anger. After realizing what was happening, they also attacked Wang Hao.
Unfortunately, they were too late!
The instant the Angel Holy Sword was drawn, Wang Hao decisively plunged it into the ground beneath his feet. A powerful burst of holy light erupted, disturbing the core of the array beneath the Haotian Hall's base.
That's right, formations also exist in the Douluo Continent, but they are only a crude Ghost Dao circulating Soul Power, relying more on Soul Tool.
As the main peak where the Clear Sky Sect is located, this place naturally has many protective measures. The strongest of these is a Soul Power defense barrier set up with hundreds of powerful Soul Tool, which is difficult for even Peerless Douluo to break.
Unfortunately, this powerful defense refers to the outside; breaking it from the inside would be much easier.
Not to mention that the three most crucial Soul Tool were buried beneath this Haotian Hall. Now, they were disrupted and destroyed by the sacred Soul Power contained in the Angel Holy Sword, causing the entire defensive barrier to collapse instantly.
It wasn't that the Clear Sky Sect was too weak; on the contrary, the Haotian Hall, which suppressed the three core Soul Tool, also had strong defensive capabilities. But unfortunately, the Angel Holy Sword was simply too powerful.
Although this Angel Holy Sword is not the original artifact of the Angel God of the Divine Realm, it has reached the level of Demigod Artifact. Not to mention that it has been nurtured by Qian Daoliu for over a hundred years. When it was given to Wang Hao along with that Storage Soul Tool, most of its own Soul Power was sealed in the holy sword.
Such a comprehensive attack would force even Tang Chen to temporarily avoid it, let alone the defensive system of the Haotian Hall.
Wang Hao channeled a powerful, sacred sword aura, forcefully sending Tang Zhen and the others who were charging forward flying back.
Tang Zhen and the others were indeed powerful, but they were still far from being qualified to face the combination of Demigod Artifact and the Soul Power of Peerless Douluo, that peerless Qian Daoliu.
