The tentacles of the demons from the blood-red hell entangled the Haotian Hammer, spreading upwards along the handle like maggots clinging to a bone.
Tang Hao's arms were bulging with veins, his muscles as black as iron taut to the extreme, and lightning crackled on the Clear Sky Hammer, but it could only barely slow down the devouring speed of the evil spirit.
Tuoba Yan hovered in mid-air, his golden eyes filled with mockery. The crimson light of his sixth spirit ring grew even more intense. "Tang Hao, where is your Breeze that once brutally defeated the Pope? You're nothing but a fallen Title Douluo whose edges have been worn smooth by time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tuoba Yan suddenly raised his hand, and dozens of bone spikes suddenly shot out from the blood-red hell, aiming straight for Tang Hao's heart.
Tang Hao was forced to withdraw his strength and defend. His Haotian Hammer swept out a semi-circular lightning bolt, but the moment the bone spike hit the hammer, it turned into black mist, bypassed the hammer, and wrapped around his left leg.
With a hiss, the black mist corroded Tang Hao's soul bone leg guards, emitting wisps of white smoke. He groaned, knelt on one knee, and used the tip of his hammer to steady himself.
Since his battle with Qian Xunji, he had never been so thoroughly suppressed by a fellow Soul Master of his generation.
No, it wasn't by fellow Soul Masters.
Tuoba Yan was a few years older than Tang San, so in terms of age, Tuoba Yan was a junior in front of Tang Hao.
On the other side, the collision between the Golden Holy Dragon and the White Armored Earth Dragon sent rocks flying through the valley.
Tuoba Xi's true form, the White-Armored Earth Dragon, was covered in thick scales. With a sweep of its tail, it knocked the Golden Sacred Dragon away.
Martial spirits and soul masters are closely linked.
The Golden Dragon was severely injured, and blood trickled from the corners of Yu Xiaogang's, Liu Erlong's, and Flander's mouths.
Cold sweat beaded on Yu Xiaogang's forehead as he continuously adjusted the soul power output of his fusion technique. "Concentrate your soul power to attack his lower abdominal scales! That's the White-Armored Earth Dragon's weak point!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, Tuoba Xi suddenly opened his mouth and spewed out a scorching dragon breath. The golden holy dragon hurriedly dodged to the side, but a piece of golden feather was still singed off its dragon wing. Flander cried out in pain, and the holy dragon's size visibly shrank a few degrees.
"Flander!" Yu Xiaogang called out urgently.
Flanders coughed up blood.
The Golden Sacred Dragon is a martial soul fusion technique formed by parasitizing another body.
The wings came from Flanders, so Flanders called them the Flying Horns.
Flander was the one most seriously injured, as his wings were corroded by the dragon's breath.
Xiao Wu stood behind Tang San, her nails digging deeply into her palms.
She watched as the black mist on Tang Hao's left leg continued to spread, watched the Golden Iron Triangle retreat step by step, and watched Tuoba Yan's blood-red energy shroud the entire valley like dark clouds. Her heart felt as if it were being clenched by an icy hand.
She knew very well that the Tuoba family had laid a trap, and they had no way to escape.
Tang San shouted, "Xiao Wu, run! Dad and I will hold them off!"
Xiao Wu suddenly smiled, her eyes no longer filled with fear, but with determination.
She slowly took a step back, and a bright red light shone between her brows.
That was the light of a 100,000-year-old soul beast's origin. As the red light spread, the surrounding rocks stopped falling, the blood-red black mist in the air froze, Tuoba Xi's dragon breath hung in mid-air, and even Tang Hao's raised Clear Sky Hammer froze in place.
Time and spacetime suddenly stood still at this moment.
"Sacrifice!"
Tang Hao's eyes showed emotion.
More than a decade ago, Tang Hao encountered the same situation.
At that time, Blue Silver Emperor A Yin was hunted by the Soul Hunting Team led by Pope Qian Xunji. A Yin sacrificed her life for Tang Hao.
Now, a similar scene has occurred again.
Feeling utterly hopeless, Xiao Wu willingly offered her life to Tang San.
Everyone was bound by this invisible energy, except for Tuoba Yan, whose eyes flashed with surprise before he let out a cold laugh.
Coincidentally, Tang San was at level 40 in soul power at that time.
Unlike the original storyline, Tang San did not possess any immortal herbs, and his soul power level for participating in the competition was a three-ring Soul Master.
After some training, his soul power level reached level 40.
For some reason, he didn't obtain his fourth spirit ring before the competition. Now he urgently needs a spirit ring to advance his spirit master level.
Tang San felt a mix of emotions.
"Xiao Wu, you..."
He felt both excited about obtaining a spirit ring with a lifespan of 100,000 years and a touch of reluctance.
Humans are not plants or trees; how can they be without feelings?
Having spent several years with him, Tang San was about to leave. To some extent, he felt a pang of reluctance.
Although he already knew from his father Tang Hao that after a soul beast sacrifices itself, the soul ring will be very compatible with the soul master, and the soul beast will continue to live in another form.
It will only severely deplete one's vitality.
Xiao Wu scoffed, "Tuoba Yan, you schemed to get my soul ring, but I won't give it to you. What can you do about it? All your plotting will ultimately come to nothing!"
"Is that so?"
Tuoba Yan smiled confidently. Suddenly, his body radiated a six-colored light.
Under the compression of static energy, the light bursts outward in a sharp cone shape.
"Crack!"
The invisible red energy barrier was pierced by the golden energy, revealing a crack.
Tuoba Yan clenched his fists tightly, and the six talismans on his body lit up at the same time.
The six talismans—horse talisman, rooster talisman, sheep talisman, ox talisman, dog talisman, and monkey talisman—radiate six different kinds of light.
They are intertwined.
With the regenerative power of healing, the mental power from the Chicken Talisman, the spiritual power from the Sheep Talisman, the earth power from the Ox Talisman, the immortal power from the Dog Talisman, and the ever-changing power obtained from the Monkey Talisman, all of these burst forth from Tuoba Yan's body.
"Tang Hao, ever since we fought to a draw last time, I've developed a new fist technique. Originally, it was meant to kill you. But things have changed, so I'll just let you have a look!"
Tuoba Yan clenched his fists tightly.
Six colors of strange light burst forth, tearing the invisible red energy barrier formed by Xiao Wu's sacrifice into even more cracks.
Tuoba Yan's right hand, in particular, was enveloped in a seven-colored light. The energy that had frozen the surrounding space began to surge like water under the force of his right fist.
"Splash!"
It sounded as if the sound of flowing water could be heard.
"Break it!"
"Six Curses Reincarnation Fist!"
"boom!"
Tuoba Yan unleashed a punch, striking the invisible red barrier.
Suddenly, the sky collapsed and the earth cracked.
The barrier that had immobilized Tang Hao, Tuoba Xi, and the others shattered like glass.
"puff!"
Xiao Wu coughed up blood.
The sacrificial ritual was interrupted. She immediately suffered a severe backlash from the ritual she was performing.
"Xiao Wu!"
Tang San cried out in pain.
Yu Xiaogang suddenly shouted, "Xiao San, kill Xiao Wu!"
"What?"
"Quickly, kill Xiao Wu. Even if we all die, we must not let Tuoba Yan obtain Xiao Wu's soul ring!"
Yu Xiaogang's eyes turned crazed, which was very frightening.
Even Liu Erlong and Flander, who were most familiar with Yu Xiaogang, were stunned by Yu Xiaogang's words!
At this moment, Flander and Liu Erlong felt that Yu Xiaogang was such a stranger.
Liu Erlong, Xiao Wu's godmother, shouted, "Xiao Gang, are you crazy? Xiao Wu is our daughter!"
