Chapter 356: The Fierce Battle Against Di Tian
Two intense battles were unfolding both inside and outside Tianxing Academy.
Inside the academy, Tang San was struggling against the combined might of Yang Wudi and the others. Though powerful, Tang San was clearly at a disadvantage and resorted to detonating his Clear Sky Hammer's spirit rings. To his shock, Yang Zhentian and Yang Wudi did the same, revealing that the Po Clan had secretly mastered the Clear Sky Sect's forbidden technique.
The five combatants exchanged a brutal blow, sending all of them plummeting to the ground, visibly injured. Tang San, already wounded by the three opponents, sustained even more damage. His right hand was shattered, and a deep wound exposed the bone in his shoulder. Blood trickled down his grim face as his aura waned significantly.
The four Tianxing Academy fighters had suffered severe impacts from the force of Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer, with bones fractured and blood at their lips. Yet, Ye Lingling's powers flared to their fullest as she activated her ninth spirit ability. A healing green light surrounded her allies, rapidly mending their fractured bones and restoring their energy.
As Dugu Bo tried to seize this opportunity to finish Tang San with a toxic cloud, Tang San's allies, led by Yu Xiaogang, angrily accused Dugu Bo of cowardice. But before the poison reached Tang San, a towering black figure suddenly appeared at his side—Bear Lord, the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear King, whose strength neared that of a Limit Douluo.
Effortlessly, Bear Lord swatted Dugu Bo's poison aside, his power clearly superior. Sensing this formidable newcomer, Dugu Bo, Niu Mang, Bone Douluo, Ning Fengzhi, and even Niu Jinfeng all entered the fray. Numerous Soul Douluo-level fighters surrounded the battlefield, determined to protect Yang Wudi's group as they healed, preparing for a full-force assault against Bear Lord.
But before they could act, an even more overwhelming pressure emanated from outside the academy, as if the very air had split into two halves—one red, one black—threatening to tear the heavens apart.
There, Yang Potian held his Soul Breaker Spear, while Di Tian wielded his Black Dragon Sword. Even a single clash between them seemed capable of ripping through the fabric of space.
In mere seconds, Yang Potian unleashed countless spear strikes, each one glowing blood-red, the tip of his Soul Breaker Spear radiating an aura of utter destruction. Di Tian's Black Dragon Sword countered with an intense killing intent, purple-black clouds swirling around them and darkening the earth.
Both fighters had reached a stage of mastery so profound it bordered on the divine. Were it not for a natural opposition preventing them from ascending, either Yang Potian or Di Tian could have long since achieved godhood.
Inside the academy, Bear Lord's intimidating presence was countered as Ye Lingling's healing powers quickly restored Yang Wudi's group to peak condition. Facing eight formidable Title Douluo, including a Level 98 fighter, with Ning Fengzhi's peerless support and Ye Lingling's potent healing, Bear Lord was severely outmatched.
Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia, enhanced by the lovestruck Acacia Heartbroken Red herb, had elevated her healing abilities to near-godly levels, rivaling even top-tier offensive spirits. Her Life Domain made sure no ally would fall as long as they could avoid an immediate fatal blow.
Outside, Yang Potian and Di Tian's battle reached a deadly standstill. Di Tian roared in anger, "Yang Potian, do you really think your strength alone is enough to defeat me? I've roamed Douluo Continent for hundreds of thousands of years, unmatched and undefeated."
Yang Potian sneered, "Di Tian, have I been giving you too much respect? If this is all you have, you can forget about rescuing Tang San—you and Bear Lord won't be leaving Tianxing Academy alive."
At his words, Yang Potian's entire body turned golden as he activated all eight of his hundred-thousand-year spirit rings. His strength increased exponentially, his eighth ring radiating a blood-red aura as he unleashed Light of Destruction, a move capable of obliterating anything in its path.
Di Tian, sensing the danger, channeled his full power into the Black Dragon Sword, bringing it down with a strike so fierce it seemed to rend the heavens. But Yang Potian's Light of Destruction engulfed Di Tian's blade, erasing the sword energy entirely and leaving a gaping wound on Di Tian's side.
The wound was so deep that even Di Tian's exceptional physique struggled to heal it immediately.
Taking advantage, Yang Potian unleashed his trunk bone ability, Wrath of the Evil Emperor, bathing the battlefield in a radiant energy that disrupted Di Tian's mind. A spectral Soul Breaker Spear tore into Di Tian's psyche, as if to rip apart his very soul.
Di Tian howled in pain, vomiting blood as his own golden eyes bled.
Despite the injury, Di Tian laughed wildly. "Excellent! I can't remember the last time someone managed to injure me. You are indeed the strongest of Douluo Continent. But don't think this is all I have to offer. If you're so eager to die, I'll show you my full strength."
For countless years, Di Tian had ruled the soul beast realm as the Beast God, his strength unmatched on Douluo Star. In his eyes, humans—Title Douluo included—were mere ants. Today, however, Yang Potian had managed to wound him, pushing him closer to using his full power and reigniting his primal ferocity as a beast.
