Soul Land: Legend of Saint Seiya

Chapter 170: Tang Hao's Ambush

"Third Soul Skill, Demon Fox Mirage!"

"Fourth Soul Skill, Boiling Magma!"

As Xie Yue eliminated Ning Rongrong and Oscar, Hu Liena and Yan turned their attacks on Dai Mubai and his team. Hu Liena's third soul skill created multiple illusory images of a demon fox, causing confusion and disarray among her opponents, which significantly weakened their offensive and defensive capabilities.

With Dai Mubai's group thrown into chaos, Yan followed up immediately. Magma erupted violently from the ground like raging dragons, roaring furiously.

Dai Mubai and his team were struck hard, screaming in pain as they were sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground, unconscious.

Tang San, now cut off from his rear-line support of continuous soul power, could no longer maintain the state of his martial soul avatar. The originally majestic dark-gold radiance of the Clear Sky Hammer shrank into a small, one-foot-long black hammer in an instant.

"Tang San, prepare to die!"

With the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill shattered, Qian Renxue let out a powerful cry. Her soul power surged like a vast ocean, and the holy sword in her hand glowed with dazzling golden light as she swung it fiercely at Tang San.

Tang San could only barely lift the now-shrunken Clear Sky Hammer to defend against the attack.

However, without the martial soul avatar, how could the Clear Sky Hammer withstand an attack from a Soul Emperor-level Qian Renxue?

A deafening "boom" resounded as the Clear Sky Hammer shattered. Tang San spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward like a ragdoll.

"It's time!"

Xiao Yu's eyes flashed with a cold gleam as he secretly activated his soul power to manipulate the dormant aura of death hidden in Tang San's body. The dark and sinister death energy swiftly coursed through Tang San's meridians, invading his internal organs.

Xiao Yu's timing was impeccable. Even Tang San himself mistook the sudden backlash for the consequences of the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill being broken.

After striking Tang San, Qian Renxue did not relent. Her entire body exuded an overwhelming killing intent as she pursued Tang San, who was still mid-air from her previous attack.

In Qian Renxue's heart, Tang San was not only the chosen inheritor of the Asura God and a future threat to Spirit Hall but also the son of the man who killed her father. Even if there was only the slightest chance, she was determined to eliminate this root of calamity.

"Watch out!"

Just as Qian Renxue prepared to deliver the fatal blow, a massive black hammer suddenly appeared in the sky. It descended with a fierce howl of wind, smashing toward Qian Renxue.

Tang Hao's attack was a deathblow. Qian Renxue's displayed talent far exceeded that of Tang San, and her martial soul—the six-winged angel—was the purest lineage of Spirit Hall. Tang Hao didn't need confirmation to know she was Qian Xunji's daughter. Someone like her could not be allowed to live.

"Tang Hao, how dare you!"

Bibi Dong's furious roar echoed as she activated her Death Spider Emperor martial soul and charged toward the stage with lightning speed.

Despite the animosity between mother and daughter, the sight of her child in mortal danger awakened a mother's protective instincts, overriding all hatred and other emotions.

The Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluos also immediately unleashed their martial souls. If anything happened to the Holy Maiden of the Worship Hall under their watch, even as elders of the Pope's faction, they would not escape severe consequences, potentially facing death as well.

However, it wasn't them who intercepted the hammer first.

Xiao Yu had been on guard for Tang Hao's appearance from the start. Positioned closer to the stage, he activated his Netherworld Apostle martial soul and intercepted the hammer before it could reach Qian Renxue.

"Killing God Domain!"

Seeing Xiao Yu blocking his attack, Tang Hao showed no intention of holding back. The Nine-Star Hall also bore a grudge against him, and with Xiao Yu's talent posing a similar threat to his son, Tang Hao resolved to eliminate him as well.

As the Killing God Domain spread outward, a bone-chilling, pale-white aura erupted from Tang Hao. The overwhelming killing intent surged forward like a ferocious beast.

Xiao Yu immediately felt its terrifying impact. Under this suffocating pressure, all of his senses became sluggish, as though paralyzed by the immense bloodlust.

"This is the embodiment of killing intent, the Killing God Domain. As expected of the first trial of the Asura God. I wonder what kind of power my innate domain will wield once I break through to the Soul Sage realm!"

Feeling the Killing God Domain up close, Xiao Yu couldn't help but let his imagination run wild about his own domain. His desire to break through to the Soul Sage level grew more intense.

Boom!

The massive Clear Sky Hammer struck the soul power shield Xiao Yu had condensed. The enormous energy rippled outward like waves, distorting the very air in its path.

However, Xiao Yu, being merely a Soul Emperor, could not completely withstand an attack from Tang Hao—a Level 95 Titled Douluo—especially with his domain active. The soul power shield shattered with a deafening crash, and the residual energy from the Clear Sky Hammer sent Xiao Yu flying.

"Xiao Yu!"

Qian Renxue cried out in alarm, halting her pursuit of Tang San. With a flap of her angelic wings, she caught the falling Xiao Yu.

Ye Lengleng and Huo Wu also rushed over, jogging to check on Xiao Yu's condition.

"Tang Hao, you're dead!"

Seeing Xiao Yu take a fatal blow for Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong breathed a faint sigh of relief but glared at the airborne Tang Hao with eyes blazing with fury.

At that moment, her murderous intent was real. In the past, Tang Hao gravely wounding Qian Xunji could be considered a favor to her in some sense. For years, she had used various excuses to suppress the pursuit of Tang Hao. After all, given Tang Hao's reckless nature, living openly in Holy Spirit Village under his real name and working as a blacksmith in a profession directly tied to his martial soul, any dedicated Spirit Hall soul master could have easily tracked him down.

But now, Tang Hao had aimed a killing blow at her daughter. Regardless of their usual discord, Qian Renxue was her only blood relative.

To borrow someone's words: Tang Hao, you've sealed your fate!

A long roar echoed through the air as four figures flew out from the Pope's Hall. The nine soul rings flashing on their bodies signified their Titled Douluo status.

"Seven Titled Douluo? So what?"

Tang Hao sneered, exuding an aura that seemed capable of standing alone against countless enemies.

"Tang San, watch closely! This is the true Clear Sky Avatar!"

Tang San, who had just been caught by Flender, immediately perked up, his eyes fixed intently on the majestic Tang Hao hovering in mid-air.

Tang Hao's seventh soul ring lit up, and the Clear Sky Hammer he had just recalled from the stage erupted with a powerful black light. The massive hammer expanded with the wind, growing to over a hundred meters in length. Its hammerhead resembled a small mountain, casting a vast shadow over the entire stage.

With a wave of his hand, Tang Hao brought the Clear Sky Hammer crashing down. Its target: the Pope's Hall behind Bibi Dong. The terrifying energy shockwaves, carrying clouds of dust, swept outward like tidal waves, shaking the entirety of Pope Mountain as if an earthquake had struck.

"Tang Hao, how dare you!"

Bibi Dong roared in fury. She spun around, joining Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and the newly arrived four Titled Douluo elders in intercepting the massive hammer.

The Pope's Hall was the face of Spirit Hall. She could not let this madman destroy it!
