Chapter 378 - Tang Xiao's Desperate Gamble

Tang Xiao was shocked that the two individuals before him hadn't even used their spirits, yet they had managed to withstand his full-force hammer strike with just their physical strength.

"Who exactly are you? Such powerful individuals couldn't possibly have no presence on the continent."

"Hmph, who are we? Well, take a good look."

As Er Ming's teasing voice rang out, the two instantly transformed into their true forms. A giant ape, thirty meters tall, and a bear of the same size rose from the ground.

"Roar!"

A deafening roar instantly spread throughout the Clear Sky Sect. The terrifying aura even caused some of the non-combat disciples within the sect to become unsteady on their feet.

Tang Xiao's pupils constricted again. He had recognized the two giant beasts before him and knew what kind of beings he was now fighting against.

"A Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, and a Titan Giant Ape?"

"You have some knowledge. Did you enjoy hammering just now? Now it's my turn. Titan Sky Shatter."

Afraid that A Baowould snatch his prey, Er Ming quickly launched his attack first, causing A Baobeside him to curse him inwardly for being cunning.

Er Ming's seemingly clumsy body moved surprisingly fast. In the air, he was like a train, crashing fiercely towards Tang Xiao not far away.

As a Super Douluo, Tang Xiao's reaction was by no means slow. Haotian Bodyguard was instantly released. His Clear Sky Hammer spun wildly in his hand, forming a circle of energy light around him for defense, appearing flawless.

But the moment Er Ming's iron fist touched the light shield, a sound like shattering glass echoed. The next moment, Tang Xiao was sent flying hundreds of meters, crashing into the mountain range in the distance.

Er Ming, who had landed, snorted towards A Baobehind him, as if showing off his strength. A Baoresponded with a fierce grin, as if to say, Is that all?

"Bang."

The sound of the mountain collapsing instantly attracted the two fighting beasts. Tang Xiao, covered in dust, returned to mid-air. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with one hand, his eyes extremely solemn. Seeing one part, he could infer the whole. Er Ming had clearly not used his full strength just now, but he could already sense the opponent's power from this single blow.

Turning his head again to look at the heavily injured and dead sect disciples, a self-mocking, tragic smile appeared on Tang Xiao's lips.

"Heh, as a son, I failed to save my father. As a Big Brother, I failed to protect my younger brother. Now, as the Sect Master, I cannot protect the sect and my clansmen. I truly am a failure."

Looking at Tang Xiao, who seemed deflated, A Baoand Er Ming felt bored.

"Hey, I say, you're not giving up, are you?"

"We haven't even finished warming up yet?"

"Give up? The Clear Sky Sect is indeed beyond saving, but before that, all you bastards will pay a heavy price."

Tang Xiao's tone was very low, and by the end, he was gritting his teeth, clearly hating these people who had destroyed his sect to the extreme.

As Tang Xiao raised his head, his ferocious face and blood-red eyes startled A Baoand Er Ming, who then smiled again.

"Now this is getting interesting."

"Is it my turn now?"

Responding to the two beasts were faint cracking sounds. Along with the sounds, all the spirit rings on Tang Xiao's body exploded one after another, turning gray, and his entire aura surged to its peak at this moment.

"Go to hell, you bastards! Break Character Technique: Combined Force, Vigorous Break."

It was also the Haotian Nine Wonders, but this strike was more than just a little faster than before. For a moment, it actually caught Er Ming and A Baooff guard.

The two beasts tacitly raised their furry arms to block in front of them. A violent impact followed, and the immense force sent A Baoand Er Ming sliding dozens of meters on the ground, only stopping when they crashed into the Clear Sky Sect's buildings. When they got up again, they left behind a ground full of ruins.

Feeling his aching arms, A Baorevealed an excited smile.

"Good strength, let's continue. Serious Claw."

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's massive body charged forward, causing the entire Clear Sky Sect to feel the tremors. After getting close to Tang Xiao, Little Treasure's bear paw fiercely swiped at the opponent.

"Shock Character Technique: Borrowing Force to Strike, Moving Shock Buffer."

The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand drew a strange arc, making contact with Little Treasure's bear paw. A strange feeling climbed into Little Treasure's heart. His claw seemed to have struck empty space, followed by a huge counter-shock force that spread throughout his body. Little Treasure's massive body was sent flying back again, crashing into the buildings in the distance. Several screams came from beneath him, clearly indicating that innocent people had suffered unwarranted disaster.

"Can you do it or not, you clumsy bear?"

"Nonsense, I was just careless for a moment. You just watch."

Little Treasure, who was being teased by Er Ming, had his black face turn even blacker. He instantly got up and pounced towards Tang Xiao again.

"I want to see how you'll shake off this claw. Tear Sky Claw."

As Little Treasure's bear paw extended once more, the entire space seemed to freeze, and the space in front of Tang Xiao began to shatter inch by inch. This also made Tang Xiao, who was in the Ring Detonation state, feel terrified once again.

"Even space..."

But the attack had already arrived, leaving him no time to think. Under muscle memory, Tang Xiao once again used the Haotian Nine Wonders.

"Collapse Character Technique: Meteor Radiation, Mountain Collapse Before."

The Clear Sky Hammer, swung with full force, brought up a gust of wind. After spinning several times, it smashed fiercely towards Little Treasure's bear paw.

Terrifying energy fluctuations instantly swept across the entire Clear Sky Sect. In the blink of an eye, there was no longer a single intact building in the entire sect, which also announced that the Clear Sky Sect had officially entered its reconstruction period. Of course, the Clear Sky Sect needed to survive this ordeal before it could begin reconstruction.

As the sky full of dust dissipated, Little Treasure's sturdy figure reappeared before their eyes, and a large pit appeared on the mine mountain several kilometers away. That was where Tang Xiao, who had been sent flying back, had crashed.

"Tch, it's over just like that, how boring. I feel like he's not as good as that Tang Hao."

Er Ming's complaint made A Baonod. He also felt that the opponent's combat power was not as good as Tang Hao's, even though their current strengths were incomparable.

Just as the two were about to turn and leave, pieces of rubble were thrown out from the pit in the mine mountain, and Tang Xiao's figure reappeared before the two beasts. Compared to the faint bloodstain on his mouth before, he looked much more miserable this time.

Not only were there multiple fractures all over his body, but his left hand was also bent at a strange angle, and he was covered in blood, looking like a demon god who had climbed up from hell.

"Oh? It seems it's not over yet."

Little Treasure's gaze held a hint of admiration as he turned back to look at Tang Xiao, who was slowly walking towards him.

"As a Sect Master, you are qualified. At least you won't try to run away."

"Run away? The Clear Sky Sect is right here. Where could I possibly run to?"

Tang Xiao looked at the Sect disciples who were almost all dead or injured, and the ruins scattered everywhere, a self-mocking smile appearing on his face again.

"You've won, but how long you can smile depends on whether you can take this move."
