Chapter 179: Defeat Tang San.
Watching the massive Fire Phoenix approach, Tang San gritted his teeth and revealed the Clear Sky Hammer in his right hand.
"Great Sumeru Hammer, Lingtian Strike!"
All nine rings on the Clear Sky Hammer exploded simultaneously, their power merging into Tang San's body. The Clear Sky Hammer instantly grew countless times larger, like a small mountain, and headed directly towards the oncoming Fire Phoenix.
Wang Xiaofei initially considered dodging with his speed, but then he realized that the Clear Sky Hammer's ring explosions were considered the most powerful of the Douluo Continent techniques, especially with Tang San's nine 100,000-year spirit rings exploding simultaneously. The power alone would be immense. How would it compare to my Qilin Arm? Besides, a head-on confrontation would be a testament to Tang San's true strength.
The Fire Phoenix's massive right claw suddenly transformed, turning a golden yellow, as if cast from gold.
The Fire Phoenix's massive claw collided with Tang San's mountain-sized Clear Sky Hammer. Suddenly, the entire space seemed to collapse.
The Fire Phoenix was repelled, marking the first time Wang Xiaofei had been repelled to date. But Tang San, facing him, seemed even more vulnerable. The Clear Sky Hammer's ring explosion was a one-shot spirit skill, and its effects weakened the body. Even at Tang San's divine level, the detonation of nine 100,000-year spirit rings was a formidable force, leaving even a god severely wounded.
The Fire Phoenix, however, was remarkably unscathed. Though repelled by the Clear Sky Hammer's immense power, it instantly attacked Tang San again.
This time, Tang San stood still, eyes closed, once again grasping the Seagod Trident.
Simultaneously, the ten spirit rings that had once belonged to the Blue Silver Emperor ignited, including the final, blue-gold ring. Immediately, all ten rings, including the tenth blue-gold divine ring, exploded. Tang San's form instantly swelled, transforming into a colossal phantom of the Seagod, his right hand clutching a solid, even larger Seagod Trident.
From a distance, the Seagod's shadowy form stretched over hundreds of meters, and the Seagod's trident was also hundreds of meters tall, like a mountain, imbuing a terrifying pressure.
"Golden Thirteen Tridents, Thirteen Styles Combined into One: Seagod's Twilight."
Instantly, the Seagod's trident, bearing the power of devastating destruction, soared towards the enormous Fire Phoenix.
Facing Tang San's supreme blow, Wang Xiaofei gritted his teeth. The Fire Phoenix raised its head to the heavens with a long cry, and the entire area tens of kilometers in radius instantly became a sea of fire.
This was the realm of the Phoenix, which had reached the divine level.
Immediately, a massive radiance flashed from the Fire Phoenix. It was the Fire Phoenix's phoenix light, a phoenix light that had reached the divine level.
The phoenix light and the Seagod's trident collided in mid-air, causing the entire space to collapse. The massive Seagod's trident seemed to be melting.
Ultimately, however, the Seagod's trident struck the Fire Phoenix. This was the first time Wang Xiaofei had been injured since becoming a god, but the Fire Phoenix raised its head to the heavens and cried out, its wounds rapidly healing in the flames. It was soon restored to its original state.
Tang San's aura was low, and his eyes betrayed a look of surprise and terror. He hadn't expected Wang Xiaofei to so easily neutralize his most powerful attack, perhaps even a fatal one.
But before Tang San could ponder further, the Fire Phoenix flew towards him again, this time with a massive hand that grasped him directly, seemingly possessing a consuming power. This was the characteristic bestowed upon the Qilin Arm Martial Spirit by the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's million-year spirit ring: devouring. Tang San wielded Sea God to attack the massive hand repeatedly, but to no avail. The five fingers of the golden hand, like pillars of stone, remained unscathed. The power seemed so terrifying that the entire space shook.
Tang San seemed to understand the power of this grasp. If he were caught, he would be doomed. At best, he would be severely injured, at worst, he would die.
Suddenly, a red sword flashed from the sky. The sword light slashed across the golden hand, leaving a huge scar. Within the scar, a faint red aura, possessing a strong corrosive power, seemed to linger.
Tang San took this opportunity to quickly leave.
Wang Xiaofei ignored Tang San's departure. The Fire Phoenix gradually shrank back to its original size, staring quietly at the distant sky.
Seeing no change in the sky, he took out a huge Soul-Breaking Spear from his body and plunged it directly into the ground.
A sigh echoed in the sky, followed by the appearance of a massive red shadow. It was none other than the Shura God. "Greetings, Lord Shura God."
"Wang Xiaofei, you and Tang San are both exceptionally gifted. I do not wish for either of you to be harmed. That would be a loss to the God Realm."
Wang Xiaofei ignored the Shura God's words and simply grasped the Soul-Breaking Spear.
"Wang Xiaofei, if it were you in danger today, I would have taken action just as well."
"Lord Shura God, if it were Tang San who wanted to kill Bibi Dong or Qian Renxue of the Spirit Empire today, would you have intervened?" He still had some use for the Shura God, and the Shura God was reluctant to kill him now.
After hearing this, the Shura God fell silent.
"Lord Shura God, since I became a god, I found that Tang San's soul seems different from that of ordinary people. The age of his soul and the age of his body seem to be a little inconsistent. Moreover, I grew up with Tang San and knew that Tang San's behavior in his childhood was different from that of ordinary people. He seems to understand many things beyond our world."
Shura God hesitated for a moment: "Yes, I brought Tang San's soul into this world. You have not experienced hundreds of thousands of years of loneliness, so you don't understand what I am experiencing and the pain I am feeling now."
"Lord Shura God, I really can't understand your pain. However, Bibi Tong and Qian Renxue also went through untold hardships to become gods. Tang San is now their mortal enemy. If both sides fight to the death, one of them will definitely die. Isn't this a bit unfair to them and me?"
"What do you want?"
"Lord Shura God, I don't want anything. I just want to ask Lord Shura God for fairness. Fairness to me, to Tang San, to Qian Renxue, to Bibi Dong, and to everyone on the entire Douluo Continent."
The Shura God snorted coldly: "Fairness, where is there any fairness in this world? Not to mention your Douluo Continent, even the entire God Realm is a world where the strong prey on the weak."
"Since it is a world where the strong prey on the weak, why do you want to leave, Lord Shura God?"
"That's my business and has nothing to do with you."
"Lord Shura God, are you so optimistic about Tang San?"
"No, Wang Xiaofei, in fact, I am more optimistic about you. With your strength and talent, you will reach the pinnacle of the God Realm sooner or later."
Wang Xiaofei couldn't help complaining in his heart: You old man, why are you optimistic about me? I guess you want to trick me into going to the God Realm to deal with me.
"In that case, Lord Shura, I will help you refine your artifact as quickly as possible and train a successor. Please also refrain from interfering in the affairs of Douluo Star. After all, if the God Realm interferes too much in Douluo Star's affairs, it could easily damage Douluo Star's essence. I owe Douluo Star a great deal of its essence."
The Shura God pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I promise. I brought Tang San to this world, and now I'm helping him resolve a crisis. I'm doing him justice."
After hearing this, Wang Xiaofei bowed to the Shura God and said, "Thank you, Lord Shura, for your understanding."
With that, the Shura God disappeared into the sky, and Wang Xiaofei left alone, preparing to return to the Elemental Academy.
