Douluo: Starting from the engagement with Zhu Zhuqing.

The sky was pitch black, and the golden sunlight passed through the circular hole and sprinkled on the ground, covering the still dazed Tang San. The terrifying energy accumulated in the sky was like a volcano about to erupt, making everyone present tremble with fear.

"Xiao San! Be careful!"

Tang Xiao was so frightened that he shouted anxiously.

If Tang San died, he didn't know how to explain to his younger brother.

The four elders were also extremely anxious. Although the golden rings that bound them began to disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, they were too far away from Tang San to rescue him in time. The only one who had the ability to rescue was the Seventh Elder who was beside Tang San.

But even if the Seventh Elder had not fallen to the Titled Douluo realm, he could not withstand this terrifying soul skill.

Could it be that Tang San is really doomed? Is the heaven going to destroy our Haotian Sect?

In the darkness, Tang San was enveloped by the golden sunlight, looking up at the figure in the sky that he hated so much. He fell into a long silence as if he was struck by lightning.

He could feel the horror of this soul skill, and despite all his calculations, he could not find a hopeful way out. In other words, unless he took on this soul skill head-on, he would surely die.

Although he made some preparations, they were in vain and he didn't even think of using them.

"Xiao Wu, I really can't seem to do this..."

Tang San smiled, somewhat helplessly, his lips trembling as he softly uttered a few words.

At this moment, a crisp sound was heard, and the Seventh Elder exploded the eight spirit rings he could still use at the same time. With the blessing of the surging soul power of the eight spirit rings, the Seventh Elder entered the Titled Douluo realm again, and was even several times stronger than before.

"Chaos cloak!"

The Seventh Elder held the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, blocked in front of Tang San, and shouted.

After all the spirit rings exploded, the Seventh Elder could no longer use spirit skills and could only use the Haotian Secret Skill. In addition to the Chaos Cloak, the Haotian Sect also has a most powerful secret skill, which is the Great Sumeru Hammer.

The Great Sumeru Hammer was a unique skill that could only be learned by a genius who had broken through the Titled Douluo realm. It had been passed down from one generation to another throughout the generations. In this generation, the Haotian Sect had six Titled Douluos, but that didn't mean that everyone could learn the Great Sumeru Hammer.

There are also gaps between geniuses.

Therefore, the four elders could only learn the first half of the Great Sumeru Hammer, the Ring Explosion. As for the second half of the Great Sumeru Hammer, they could not master it.

Because of this, they had to be very careful when exploding the spirit rings, and they didn't dare to explode too many spirit rings at once. So just now, the elders only exploded the first four spirit rings. Exploding too many spirit rings would be life-threatening, and the body would not be able to withstand the huge energy and would most likely explode directly.

The Seventh Elder exploded eight spirit rings at the same time, which meant that he was risking his life.

For Tang San, he was willing to sacrifice his own life.

"Old Seven!"

"Seventh Elder!"

Tang Xiao, the four elders roared angrily with their eyes bloodshot. With their soul power surging, they quickly rushed towards Tang San and threw the Clear Sky Hammer, trying to block Dai Yao and Tang San.

"Seven Elders..."

Looking at the resolute back of the Seventh Elder, Tang San's heart trembled and he murmured.

The Seventh Elder sacrificed his life to give himself a chance to survive. All the grudges that the Seventh Elder had made things difficult for him on the chain bridge because of his father, disappeared unknowingly.

"Sun and Moon Brilliant Golden Turn!"

At this moment, a golden formation suddenly lit up under Tang San's feet, and a majestic golden dragon jumped out from it, coiled up, and protected Tang San, ready to take the blow for Tang San. Judging from the terrifying momentum, its strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Titled Douluo, and was almost reaching the level of a Super Douluo.

This is one of Tang San’s trump cards, the martial soul fusion technique of the Golden Iron Triangle.

After mastering the Heaven Dou Empire, Tang San gave Master some imperial treasures, and Master finally broke through level 30 and obtained the third soul ring. Flanders and Liu Erlong both broke through the Soul Douluo realm, and the power of the three's martial soul fusion skills was greatly improved, much more powerful than when they were beaten by Dugu Bo in the original work.

"Xiao San, we will protect you!"

Yu Xiaogang's firm voice came from the body of the giant dragon.

"Teacher, please leave quickly and don't worry about me. I will definitely die. If you block this attack for me, you will also be seriously injured or even die!"

Tang San said urgently.

"Xiao San, you don't need to persuade me. I know your father is His Majesty Haotian, and I am not worthy of being your father, but after so many years of getting along, in my heart, you are already my son. As a father, seeing my son facing a life-and-death crisis, how can I just stand by and watch?"

Yu Xiaogang said slowly, his tone full of kindness.

Hearing this, Tang San's heart trembled violently.

In his previous life, he was a disciple of the Tang Sect and had never experienced fatherly love. In this life, he came to the Douluo Continent. Although he had a father, Tang Hao, he had never experienced the feeling of fatherly love when he was a child. It was only after he awakened his martial soul that he felt the love from Tang Hao.

In his heart, Yu Xiaogang is both his teacher and his father. Now, hearing Yu Xiaogang's sincere expression of emotion, his heart is suddenly filled with warmth.

"Even if I die today, I won't feel that sorry."

A smile appeared on Tang San's face.

He has a father again!

But before he could utter the word "Dad", a blood-red light illuminated the entire sky, and a cold voice echoed throughout the universe without any emotion.

"Eighth Soul Skill, Divine Fall!"

As the voice fell, no one had time to react, and a huge incandescent energy beam instantly fell from the sky. The elders of the Haotian Sect, the countless guards of the palace, and the many people of Tiandou City could only watch as the energy beam covered the Seventh Elder, the Golden Dragon, and Tang San one by one.

The Seventh Elder's Clear Sky Hammer held out for a moment in the light column, and then it turned into ash bit by bit, visible to the naked eye;

The Golden Holy Dragon had a resolute look in its eyes and four claws, looking overbearing and majestic. However, as soon as it came into contact with the energy beam, it immediately turned into a shrill scream that was chilling...
"Seventh Elder! Xiao San!"

"Seventh Brother! Young Master!"

Tang Xiao could no longer calm himself down, his forehead veins bulged, and he roared. The four elders were no less anxious, their faces full of anxiety and anger.

But what shocked them even more was that, despite being thousands of meters away, the energy fluctuations from the energy beam still made their skin feel burning, as if they were being roasted by fire. Their ears could no longer hear anything but the crackling sound of the energy beam ravaging the ground.

What kind of huge energy must be required to allow them to feel this effect. They could not imagine how much pain the Seventh Elder and Tang San felt when they were hit by this energy beam.

"I have only seen the power of this attack on my great-grandfather..."

Amidst a heart full of rage, the remaining rationality made Tang Xiao have this thought in his mind.

A moment later, the last section of the energy beam in the sky also fell to the ground. A huge deep pit suddenly appeared in the originally beautiful and prosperous Shrek Academy. Thousands of meters of ground were completely evaporated. The pit surface was extremely dark, and white steam evaporated from time to time. At the end of the pit, a faint orange-red light could be seen. That was the light of magma.

The many soldiers who were still alive saw this scene and fled away in terror. If they were unlucky enough to stand in the wrong position, their fate would be the same as their unfortunate companions, turning into ashes.

"ended."

Above the sky, Dai Yao slowly looked at the holes on the ground, his face somewhat bleak.

Dai Yao was filled with emotion when the protagonist of the original novel died in his own hands. Once upon a time, he was also moved by the relationship between Tang San and Xiao Wu. Now that he has lost such an opponent, he has lost some motivation. Now on the road of soul master, his only opponent is himself.

And only himself.

"what?"

In the state of omniscience, at the bottom of the pit, he suddenly sensed a strange and terrifying breath. And around this breath, there were four weak breaths that were about to die.

Dai Yao's eyelids twitched.

That strange aura was too dazzling in his 'omniscience', and was similar in strength to the aura of Poseidon, the great priest of the Sea God Temple, or even a little stronger. Unlike Tang Xiao and others who had used the explosive ring to increase their aura to near the limit, this aura was extremely heavy and could not have been increased by the explosive ring.

In today's continent, there are only a few people with such strength besides Poseidon.

Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen.

Apart from humans, among the soul beasts, only the Deep Sea Demon Whale, Emperor Tian, ​​the Evil Emperor, and the Snow Emperor can be considered half souls.

Dai Yao turned around and ran without hesitation, his eight wings dancing wildly, directly breaking through the sound barrier and turning into a stream of light that swept into the sky.

"What's going on?! How did a Limit Douluo suddenly appear?! And protect Tang San? Damn it, the protagonist is so hard to kill! I have clearly robbed Tang San of so many opportunities and reduced his luck, but when he was about to die, an unexpected situation still occurred."

Dai Yao cursed inwardly, feeling somewhat gloomy.

"Who is this peerless strong man? I have felt the auras of Bo Saixi and Qian Daoliu, and they don't match this person's aura at all. It can't be them. Tang Chen is a possibility. As one of the two peaks of the spirit master world, he does have the strength of a Limit Douluo and the reason to save Tang San."

"And there are such strong ones among soul beasts. Among million-year soul beasts, the Deep Sea Demon Whale is not possible. He is still sleeping in the trench! And the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm is needless to say. In addition to his million-year cultivation, he can't even beat the fierce beasts."

"Besides, there are only Emperor Tian and Evil Emperor left."

"The Evil Emperor is far away in the Sun Moon Continent, so the remaining possibility is Emperor Tian! But why would Emperor Tian save Tang San? There is no reason?!"

"However, I cannot rule out the possibility of Di Tian. Now it seems that there are two candidates for this aura, one is Tang Chen, and the other is Di Tian. Now it is important to escape. I have lost most of my spirit rings and my strength has been greatly reduced. Unless I expose my Chaos Blue Lotus Martial Spirit, there is only one way to go, death."

Dai Yao felt increasingly depressed and fled at high speed.

"Asshole! Don't even think about escaping!"

Seeing Dai Yao flying away, the Sixth Elder was furious.

Without hesitation, he blew up the fifth, sixth and seventh soul rings, and chased after Dai Yao with the Clear Sky Hammer in hand. Amid the deafening explosion, the thunder brought by the Clear Sky Hammer cut through the sky.

The Fifth Elder's aura had completely disappeared, and he turned into ashes in Dai Yao's attack. Even his body could not be found. He and the Seventh Elder were like brothers, so how could he let it go easily? Even if he had to risk his life, he wanted Dai Yao to pay for his blood debt with blood!
"Lao Wu!"

Seeing this, the second elder, the third elder, and the fourth elder also exploded several soul rings, followed the fifth elder, and chased in the direction of Dai Yao.

Dai Yao's golden hair danced wildly. He turned his head slightly to glance at the pursuers behind him, and thought to himself:

"I'm flying in the opposite direction of Bing'er, Xuewu and the others. As long as I continue to hold them back, Bing'er and the others will be safe. If that peerless Douluo comes after me, I'll have no choice but to use the Chaos Azure Lotus Martial Spirit."

Recalling this sudden move, Dai Yao couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little regretful.

"If I come to Tiandou City this time and hunt soul beasts again to make up for the missing soul rings, I don't need to use the Thirteen Sea God Styles, let alone any strategies to kill Tang San. I can defeat these Titled Douluo of the Clear Sky Sect with just the most basic moves."

"But now that things have come to this, there is no need to dwell on the past. No one expected the crisis at the Element Academy to come so suddenly."

"After this crisis is resolved, I must quickly replenish my spirit rings."

Dai Yao made a secret decision.

Watching the pursuers getting farther and farther away, Dai Yao thought for a moment and deliberately slowed down so that the elders of Haotian Sect would not give up. At the same time, he fully activated "omniscience" and carefully guarded against the sudden attack of the peak Douluo.

In the sky of the Tiandou Empire, a white shadow quickly cut through the sky and disappeared into the horizon. Before the people in the city below could exclaim in surprise, four terrifying auras followed the shadow in front with a huge roar and also disappeared into the sky.

······
Tiandou City, the ruined Shrek Academy.

Tang Xiao was a little confused. He didn't understand why Dai Yao suddenly ran away. Even if he couldn't use that amazing restrictive spirit skill anymore, he wouldn't run away, right?
Could it be that they are trying to lure the enemy deeper into our territory?

He looked at the Second Elder and others who were walking away with concern. With the strength of the elders, even if they couldn't kill Dai Yao, they would have no problem escaping. Moreover, with the highly prestigious Second Elder following them, nothing serious would happen.

Immediately, he lowered his head and looked into the dark pit.

He had a vague feeling that Tang San was still alive. That was why he stayed and did not follow the Second Elder and the others to chase Dai Yao.

He wanted to take a good look inside the pothole.

However, just as he was about to go down, a strange breath rose rapidly, and the next moment, several figures suddenly appeared in front of Tang Xiao.

It was the dying Tang San and the Golden Triangle.

In front of Tang San stood a middle-aged man with black hair, extremely majestic, and intimidating without anger. He could feel the terrifying aura of the middle-aged man, like an abyss or a prison. His heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly said:
"Thank you for saving Xiao San. No matter what you want, our Haotian Sect will satisfy you."

The black-haired middle-aged man glanced at Tang Xiao calmly, turned to look at Tang San, and said slowly:

"Tang San, I need to talk to you about something."

Although Tang San was extremely weak at the moment, he still insisted on standing up and bowing. He knew very well how terrifying this middle-aged man was. Even the former Pope Bibi Dong was probably not as powerful as this man. If they could get help from this man, the crisis of their Heaven Dou Empire would be resolved!

"In theory, since you saved my life, I should agree to do whatever it takes. But I am the king of a country after all, and I need to be responsible for the people of the Tiandou Empire. I need to hear the details of what happened."

Tang San said respectfully.

The middle-aged man nodded slightly.

Tang San asked cautiously: "May I know your name, Senior?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Tang San and said lightly:

"Emperor Tian." (End of this chapter)
