Chapter 14 Tang Zhen vs. Xun Ji
"Tang Zhen!" Qian Xunji said slowly and deliberately, his eyes showing seriousness for the first time.
The former sect leader of the Haotian Sect, a level 97 Power Attack Douluo, Tang Zhen! He is still alive and has been cultivating in seclusion within the sect!
"Old Sect Master!" All the Haotian Sect disciples cheered in unison, their morale soaring.
Tang Zhen walked on air and arrived at the center of the battlefield.
He looked at Qian Xunji with icy eyes.
"The Clear Sky Sect does not have any so-called 100,000-year-old transformed soul beasts," Tang Zhen said calmly. "If you leave now, the Clear Sky Sect can pretend that today's events never happened, and we can still coexist peacefully in the future."
Upon hearing Tang Zhen's words, Qian Xunji fell into a brief moment of contemplation, and ultimately made a concession after weighing the options.
"It's not impossible for us to leave."
"However... I still maintain that if your Clear Sky Sect hands over that woman named Ah Yin so I can examine her, and if she is indeed not a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast, the Spirit Hall will naturally apologize."
Tang Zhen remained silent. He didn't actually know Ah Yin's true identity, but Qian Xunji's certainty was probably not unfounded.
Tang Zhen's silence was the answer in Qian Xunji's eyes.
"It seems that the Haotian Sect is determined to protect that 100,000-year-old soul beast." Qian Xunji's voice turned cold, and at the same time, the phantom of the six-winged angel behind him became more and more solid.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Angel Realm, open!"
A gentle yet powerful golden light spread out from Qian Xunji, instantly enveloping an area of tens of meters around him.
In this light, all the disciples of the Haotian Sect felt their soul power sluggish, as if they were stuck in a quagmire, and their strength was weakened by several percent.
Meanwhile, the spirit masters of the Spirit Hall were greatly encouraged!
This is what makes domain-type soul skills so terrifying—within the domain's range, the controller is a god!
"Domain..." A trace of solemnity flashed across Tang Zhen's aged face.
He had fought fiercely in his early years, which damaged his vital essence. Although he survived thanks to the secret techniques of the Haotian Sect and his soul power was maintained at level 97, his combat strength was no longer at its peak.
More importantly, his internal injuries had not healed, making it impossible for him to fight for a long time; his previous toughness was just a facade.
"Ancestor!" Tang Kun looked at Tang Zhen, his eyes full of worry, clearly aware of his situation.
Tang Zhen waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.
He took a deep breath and unleashed his level 97 Title Douluo's soul power without reservation!
Tang Zhen made a grasping motion in the air, and a giant hammer, entirely black with ancient patterns on its head, appeared in his hand.
This Haotian Hammer was a size larger than Tang Kun's, with a hammerhead diameter of half a meter and a handle length of two meters. Just by holding it in his hand, it exuded a heavy feeling that suppressed heaven and earth.
"Qian Xunji, let this old man experience your six-winged angel skills."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang was shocked.
His seemingly aged body burst forth with astonishing speed. In one step, he appeared ten meters in front of Qian Xunji, and swung his Haotian Hammer without any fancy moves, smashing it toward Qian Xunji's face.
This seemingly simple strike contains the profound martial arts principle of simplifying complexity.
Wherever the hammer passed, even the light in the angel's realm was torn open!
Qian Xunji's expression changed slightly, and he blocked with his holy sword.
"clang--!"
The hammer and sword clashed, unleashing a deafening roar.
Qian Xunji's body trembled violently, and he slid back more than ten meters, his arm holding the sword feeling slightly numb.
Surprise flashed in his eyes—this old guy, what incredible strength!
Tang Zhen pressed his advantage relentlessly, and the second blow followed immediately.
"The Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian - The Zhen Character Technique!"
The surface of the Haotian Hammer glowed with black light. This hammer blow not only carried terrifying power, but also contained a hidden force that could shake one's soul!
Qian Xunji dared not take the blow head-on. He flapped his six wings, his figure drawing a golden arc in the air, narrowly avoiding the hammer.
boom!
The Clear Sky Hammer slammed into the ground, causing the ground within a hundred meters to churn like waves. Dozens of Spirit Hall Soul Masters lost their footing and fell to the ground.
"The old sect leader is mighty!" the disciples of Haotian Sect cheered in unison.
However, Tang Zhen's heart sank.
Those two blows, though seemingly powerful, had actually aggravated his internal injuries.
He could feel a sharp pain in his chest, a lingering ailment from a battle with an evil spirit master years ago, when the master used poison to injure him.
"We must finish this quickly," Tang Zhen thought to himself.
He raised the Clear Sky Hammer once more, and his seventh spirit ring lit up—
"True Spirit Body!"
A phantom image of a giant hammer, ten meters long, appeared behind Tang Zhen, merging with the Haotian Hammer in his hand.
At this moment, Tang Zhen's aura surged again, almost reaching level ninety-eight!
"Sky-Piercing Strike!"
Tang Zhen directly used the most powerful attack from Haotian's ultimate techniques.
He knew he couldn't hold out for long and had to defeat Qian Xunji as quickly as possible; otherwise, once he fell, no one in the Haotian Sect would be able to stop the Pope of the Spirit Hall.
The giant hammer fell, as if it would shatter the heavens and earth.
Qian Xunji's expression finally changed. He could feel the terrifying power contained in this hammer blow, an attack that was enough to threaten his life!
"Elder Gui, Elder Ju!" Qianxun called out urgently to the two of them.
Kiku and Oni exchanged a glance and flew toward each other as if they were telepathically connected.
"not good."
Seeing the actions of Kiku and Oni, Tang Kun, who was at the rear of the battle, was shocked and obviously guessed what they were going to do.
Just as Tang Kun was about to step forward to stop him, a figure appeared in front of him. "Tang Kun, I still remember that blow from ten years ago," the Demon Bear Douluo said in a hoarse voice. "Today, it's time to pay the price."
At this point, Tang Kun was anxious, but there was nothing he could do to change the situation.
He then stopped and sneered at the Demon Bear Douluo:
"You?"
"I could break your ribs back then, and I can smash your head today!"
After saying that, he smashed the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand toward Demon Bear Douluo.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Kiku and Oni had successfully activated their Martial Soul Fusion Technique.
"A realm of bipolar stillness!"
With their current strength, Chrysanthemum and Ghost are not strong enough to completely stop a level 97 Title Douluo, but they can still hold him off for a moment.
When Ju and Gui unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, Qian Xunji dared not be careless and unleashed his full power.
"Seventh Soul Skill - Angelic Form!"
"Ninth Soul Skill - Angelic Glory!"
Qian Xunji raised his hands high, and the phantom of the six-winged angel behind him instantly solidified, the angel's holy sword shining brightly.
At the same time, a massive pillar of light, seemingly capable of purifying all evil in the world, tore through the sky and, carrying the power of divine judgment, rushed toward Tang Zhen!
At this moment, Tang Zhen also broke free from the domain of Ju and Gui.
He met the incoming wave of light with the giant hammer in his hand.
Rumble, rumble, rumble—!!!
At the moment of impact, the sky seemed to darken for a moment.
The terrifying energy shockwave spread out in a spherical shape, and all the nearby Soul Masters, whether friend or foe, were blasted away.
Some with lower cultivation levels even coughed up blood and collapsed from severe injuries.
Tang Kun and Demon Bear Douluo, who were fighting on the other side, also retreated to their respective camps.
-
Meanwhile, in the inner courtyard of the Haotian Sect, at Tang Hao's residence.
Ah Yin lay on the bed in agony, her whole body covered in cold sweat.
Premature birth!
