The King of Slaughter, who at most only had the strength of a level ninety-five Titled Douluo, after being shone upon by the Sea God’s light, his entire aura actually began to soar at a geometric rate, as if it were an endless improvement.
And that body of killing intent was not only not swept away by the Sea God’s light, which symbolized holiness and purification, but on the contrary, was continuously improving. It was vast and magnificent, shaking one’s heart and soul. There were even red lights sparkling on his body, and the qi mechanism of his entire body was strong to an indescribable degree.
Bo Saixi looked at the King of Slaughter in disbelief. She simply couldn’t believe her own eyes.
"Tang Chen!!!"
Bo Saixi, who had always been calm and collected, lost her voice.
The King of Slaughter’s two eyes actually lit up. His pupils were incomparably deep. His face had changed. He still had the appearance of a middle-aged man, but had become much more handsome. All evil had been replaced by a righteous qi.
The black hair behind his head moved without any wind. Standing there, he was as serene as a mountain, like a grandmaster of a generation.
"Hmm?"
Tang Chen suddenly let out a light hum. He had heard his own name and had turned to look at Bo Saixi.
As beautiful as in the past. Tang Chen’s heart and soul were greatly shaken, extremely excited. Tang Chen was very excited. He had not expected that the moment he had just broken free and had melted away the Rakshasa God’s evil thoughts, he would run into the person he had loved most in his life.
He then immediately noticed Bo Saixi’s muddy and messy red robe and the chaotic inner qi. This was a sequela from the battle with Shen An, and it was still a situation where Shen An had deliberately held back.
Tang Chen was just about to speak but was interrupted by a voice.
"Alright. Now that a great enemy is before us, you two stop being all lovey-dovey first. Tang Chen, in the name of the Asura God, I am giving you the ninth trial of the Asura, to block the Spirit Empire from unifying the continent. You can kill them all!"
The voice of the Asura’s divine sense sounded at this moment.
Tang Chen instantly calmed down. He had just returned and had many questions in his heart. But no matter how many things there were, in terms of priority, none was more important than the Asura God’s trial.
The Asura’s divine sense said again, "Bo Saixi will explain everything to you. You will thank me."
Thus, Bo Saixi patiently explained to Tang Chen the things that had happened during this period, as well as the great battle from not long ago.
From the Clear Sky Sect’s retreat, to Tang Hao being beheaded in front of all the people under heaven, to the deaths of Tang Xiao and the elders of the Clear Sky Sect, as well as her own being repelled by Shen An with one sword strike.
For every piece Tang Chen heard, his breath became heavier and heavier, the killing intent on his body growing thicker. Until the end, his two eyes were blood-red. Finally, he threw his head back and let out a great roar, a sound that shook heaven and earth.
"Shen An! Shen An!"
Bo Saixi’s face carried a look of worry. After her exchange with Shen An, she knew very well of his power. Even she, who held a divine weapon, was not Shen An’s opponent. Tang Chen was stronger than her, but his strength was also limited. She was worried that Tang Chen was not Shen An’s opponent.
Tang Chen saw the meaning in Bo Saixi’s expression, forcibly suppressed the agitation in his heart, and said, "Don’t worry. After I had borrowed the Sea God’s light to break free from the cage of the Rakshasa’s evil thoughts, I have achieved the demigod’s body and have come into contact with the power of the divine level. Now, besides a god-level expert, I am the strongest!"
The Asura’s divine sense nodded slightly. What Tang Chen had said was indeed not wrong. This was also the reason why he had chosen to release Tang Chen.
"But you must not be careless either. That person possesses a million-year soul ring and must not be underestimated. You and Bo Saixi will adjust together for three days to recover your state. I have an Asura secret method to pass to you."
Tang Chen just gave a deep look at the Asura’s divine sense. His intuition told him that for so many years, the Asura’s divine sense had known he was trapped in the Rakshasa’s evil thoughts, yet had still been indifferent.
’This Asura’s divine sense surely has ill intentions.’ Tang Chen thought to himself but did not say it out loud. Now was not the time to fall out with the Asura’s divine sense. But this Asura inheritance, he absolutely could not take it again.
Tang Chen made up his mind. After killing Shen An, then he would think of all ways to gather faith, even if it took him hundreds of thousands of years, he would not hesitate.
At the time of Tang Xiao’s that one roar, Qian Daoliu in Jialing Pass’s eyebrow suddenly jumped. Was it an illusion? He seemed to have sensed the aura of an old friend.
"I hope it’s not you. Otherwise, things will be troublesome."
Qian Daoliu said to himself, and then looked towards a room. Shen An had said that after his battle with Bo Saixi, he had had some enlightenment and wanted to go into seclusion to experience it.
In front of the door, a cat and a mouse were wearing guard robes and standing guard. Of course, it was just for show. The actual situation was that these two were already standing asleep.
And Tom was even more so sleeping while holding a trident. A cat loves a fish fork. Very reasonable, right?
Shen An sat quietly in the room, looking at the virtual page before him.
A massive amount of fame points had been turned into soul power experience packs and all sorts of prizes. Among them was also included a mysterious character lottery ticket.
However, most of the prizes now were some miscellaneous items, more on the fun side. Things like strength potions and speed potions that could improve one’s combat power were basically not seen.
Shen An used all the soul power experience packs. In just a moment, his cultivation had been raised to level eighty. At this moment, Shen An also knew the amount of fame value required for level eighty.
Fifty million!
This amount, in the past, would have been an absolutely heaven-shocking amount. It was just that for the current Shen An, it was a little insufficient to look at.
Now, just the fame value that Shen An currently held was ninety million. What’s more, this number was still constantly jumping.
However, Shen An was in no hurry to absorb his eighth soul ring. He was preparing to further raise his own upper limit. And the best way was none other than to refine his jade bones.
Now that all six jade bones had been collected by him, Shen An clearly remembered the system’s description of the jade bones.
A golden body and a jade frame. A minor completion is like a divine body. A great completion is to be undying and indestructible!
With his previous experience, Shen An was familiar with the process and had refined all the remaining four jade bones.
In the room, a golden light surrounded his body, reflecting his extraordinary creation of a golden body and a jade frame.
Shen An’s body was tall and straight, the lines of his muscles smooth and full of a sense of power, like a divine statue. Every muscle contained an endless great power.
At this time, Shen An’s skin was translucent. His inner bones could be strangely seen. They were all of a jade color.
At this moment, the golden body and jade frame had been completely achieved!
A look of surprise suddenly appeared in Shen An’s eyes. He felt a strength and a freshness that he had never felt before.
At the same time, the space by his side, in Shen An’s view, was as fragile as a thin piece of paper. It was as if a forceful wave of his hand would cause a tear in the space.
This extreme strength was too fascinating. If he were to meet Bo Saixi again, even without using his soul power, Shen An was confident he could hammer her to death.
"Is this the golden body and jade frame that at a minor completion can be compared to a divine body?" Shen An said to himself.
’Then next, I should advance to Soul Douluo. How many years should my eighth soul ring be? A million years, or ten million years?’
Shen An thought silently. In his heart, he silently recited, exchange for a soul ring!
A familiar seven-colored light appeared again, scrambling to merge into Shen An’s body, turning into the purest of energy, crazily raising Shen An’s foundation and upper limit.
An endless amount of a seven-colored energy poured into Shen An’s body. The moment the eighth soul ring was formed, it was a scarlet color. In less than half a day’s time, it had transformed into gold!
And on the third day of Shen An’s seclusion, the Heaven Dou side had actually swept over again.
It was just that unlike before, this time only Bo Saixi and the Seven Holy Pillar Douluos had come, as well as Tang Chen and the remnant disciples of the Clear Sky Sect.
Tang Chen’s pair of tiger eyes looked at the city before him with indifference. He wanted to destroy the city and storm the fortress, to re-establish the prestige of the Clear Sky Sect, and to wash away the shame that the Clear Sky Sect had suffered over these years!
"Qian Daoliu! Shen An! Get the hell out here for me!"
Tang Xiao suddenly shouted loudly. A vast and powerful voice shook heaven and earth, as if the heavens were enraged.
"Who dares to be disrespectful to the Great Priest!"
A sharp whistle came from within the city. The one who came out first was impressively the Ghost Douluo, Gui Mei!
It was just that when he looked up, his pupils suddenly shrank. A look of disbelief appeared on his face. In an instant, he lost his voice, "Tang Chen!"
His figure, which had originally been diving forward, fiercely retreated. This kind of fierce person was not someone he could handle. He had to quickly go and find the Great Priest.
Spirit Hall had its own special communication method. Qian Daoliu at Jialing Pass had received Gui Mei’s message at the same time.
"It really is you. You are actually still alive."
Qian Daoliu’s face was grave. No one knew better than him the power of that person. That could be said to be his lifelong enemy.
He first looked at the place of Shen An’s seclusion, and then immediately decided to go and hold the line himself first.
"I don’t know if I can do it," Qian Daoliu murmured to himself.
Qian Daoliu admitted that as one of the three great peerless experts of the previous era, in fact, he and Bo Saixi were a notch inferior to Tang Chen.
In the past, as level ninety-nine Titled Douluos, his and Bo Saixi’s martial souls were not only god-level martial souls, but also had a terrifying configuration of nine black and one red. But even so, they were still a notch inferior to Tang Chen.
Qian Daoliu vaguely remembered that back then when he and Tang Chen had both expressed their feelings for Bo Saixi, Bo Saixi had said that whoever could become a god, she would accept.
Wasn’t this clearly rejecting him?
The result was that Tang Chen had actually not pursued his victory, but on the contrary, had gone to look for a god-seat with great ambition. And this search had lasted for several decades.
Qian Daoliu believed that with Tang Chen’s aptitude, it would surely not be difficult to obtain the favor of a god. Even more so, as long as the other party had enough patience, he could even gather faith for a thousand years to become a god.
So, in these decades that Tang Chen had been missing, the other party had surely made great progress.
Qian Daoliu gritted his teeth. No matter. I’ll go and hold the line first!
"Gui Mei, you come to Jialing Pass quickly. If Shen An shows any sign of coming out of seclusion, you inform him in time."
Qian Daoliu unfolded his six wings. A golden light circulated on his body, holy and majestic. At an incredible speed, he flew towards the horizon, leaving a long, golden tail flame.
"Tang Chen, let’s fight!"
Tang Chen also saw the Qian Daoliu in the sky, who was a full ten thousand zhang of a golden light. His gaze was indifferent. He took a step forward. A red phantom full of an infinite killing intent appeared behind him. The red light in his hands fiercely condensed into the shape of a hammer.
A huge and incomparable red giant hammer, a giant hammer sparkling with countless magnificent demonic patterns. Tang Chen gripped it with both hands and, with a posture of raising a fire to scorch the heavens, from bottom to top, struck straight at Qian Daoliu’s six-winged angel phantom.
Rumble!!!
A golden light and a red light intertwined. After a brief collision, the thick red light fiercely swallowed the golden light, sending it flying for who knows how many li!
Under a brief exchange, Qian Daoliu was horrified. The power that Tang Chen was displaying at this moment far surpassed that of a level ninety-nine Limit Douluo. Unless he held the Angelic Holy Sword, there was no chance of victory at all.
’Damn it! The Angelic Holy Sword is not by my side!’ Qian Daoliu cursed in his heart.
"Oh, how come it’s only you, Qian Daoliu? For the sake of our past friendship, as long as you let the Spirit Empire disintegrate and retreat, and also tell me the whereabouts of that Shen An, I will spare your life."
Although Tang Chen was at this moment standing on the ground, he had a kind of feeling of looking down from above.
"Tang Chen, you are too arrogant. It was just a brief exchange. Let’s fight again!"
Qian Daoliu let out a loud roar. He was mobilizing the power of the Angel God. This was his privilege as a Tribute.
As one of the three great pinnacles, Qian Daoliu’s greatest advantage was his balance, as well as the ability to display his greatest power no matter when or where, as long as he flew into the sky.
At this moment, the six-winged angel phantom behind him in the empty air. The light of the sun in the high sky was all drawn over by it. In an instant, it transformed into a hundred-zhang golden giant sword. Light and flame circulated on the sword’s body.
"Slash for me!!!"
The hundred-zhang giant sword slashed down from the empty air. Even the surrounding space rippled, as if it could not withstand this terrifying energy.
Tang Chen’s face was still unchanged. Behind him, eight black and one red soul rings manifested. Qian Daoliu’s mobilization of the power of the sun and the Angelic divine power had already reached the demigod level and could be considered to be able to enter his eyes.
He held his giant hammer and suddenly leaped up, transforming into a blood-red meteor that met this sword.
Gold and blood-red, in an instant, they fused into one and then suddenly exploded. A vast energy like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami erupted in the high sky. The clouds within a thousand zhang were actually all turned to nothingness.
A strange brilliance filled Bo Saixi’s eyes as she looked at Tang Chen. This was the strongest soul master of the previous era, the true number one under heaven!
At this moment, Gui Mei was anxiously turning in circles in front of Shen An’s room, wanting to enter, yet afraid of disturbing him.
Tom and Jerry even considerately handed over melon seeds and fruits, meaning to help him pass the time.
The corner of Gui Mei’s mouth twitched slightly. He really couldn’t eat.
Suddenly, the room door was fiercely opened. A tall and straight, sword-like figure appeared in his line of sight.
One and a half days later, one and a half days later, Shen An came out of seclusion. His entire aura was like an abyss or a sea, like a god or a saint.
Gui Mei looked at Shen An, his face full of shock. How was that a person? It was clearly an immortal! It was a side of heaven and earth!
Gui Mei’s soul was trembling. This state of Shen An made him can’t help but want to prostrate himself in worship, just like an ordinary creature facing a god in the heavens.
"Shen An, the Great Priest needs more help," Gui Mei said, forcibly enduring the trembling of his body.
Shen An just nodded indifferently and then disappeared from his original spot.
Unlike an ordinary soul master whose combat power would greatly increase after obtaining a soul ring, every time Shen An obtained a soul ring, his strength would soar by a geometric multiple.
At this time, the great battle hundreds of li away, he had already sensed. That was a realm and combat power that an ordinary soul master could only dream of in their lifetime.
But for him at this moment, it was just so-so.
Gui Mei was as if he had seen a ghost. He saw Shen An disappear from his original spot. At the same time, the horrifying aura also disappeared with him, which made him can’t help but let out a sigh of relief.
Tom and Jerry were stunned for a moment. Shen An just left like that? Then what about the two of them? They were still preparing to watch the excitement.
Then the two little ones looked around and soon discovered two brooms in a corner. They soon got on them, as if riding a horse.
Gui Mei looked on with a strange expression. What are these two doing?
"Do you two want to go over? I’ll take you," Gui Mei said.
Then he saw Tom and Jerry lightly pat the brooms with their legs, and then they flew up, heading straight for the horizon.
Gui Mei: ...
At this moment, Qian Daoliu was already covered in countless injuries. He was indeed no match for Tang Chen. This battle had even more so continuously used the foundation of an Angel Tribute. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to last until now.
Tang Chen’s eyes were indifferent. "The warm-up is over. It’s time to end it."
The hammer in his hand even more so grew in size out of thin air, sparkling with a terrifying aura.
"Clear Sky Nine Absolutes!"
"You’re right. It’s time to end it," an indifferent, sword-like voice sounded. A hand, glowing with a jade color, frontally blocked the Clear Sky Hammer.
This contemptuous attitude was as if the thing in his hand was not the number one tool martial soul under heaven, the Clear Sky Hammer, but a toy hammer.
Immediately, under Tang Chen’s incredulous gaze, the hand fiercely slapped. An unimaginable, majestic force came.
The next moment, Tang Chen, along with his hammer, was slapped into the ground for who knows how many hundreds of meters.
