Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends.

"puff!"

The demonic vine, as tough as a steel whip, lashed fiercely at his protective soul power, producing a muffled thud and sending a sharp pain through him instantly, but that was exactly the effect he wanted.

Using the force of the whip, Tang Hao's body seemed to be accelerated, instantly changing its original direction. He no longer entangled with Ge Duo, but shot towards the area of ​​immortal herbs behind Ge Duo, which was protected by layers of energy light shields, like a cannonball.

His goal was extremely clear: since he couldn't obtain elixirs, he would seize immortal herbs. He didn't care what kind of herb it was, as long as he could get his hands on at least one.

"you dare!"

Ge Duo instantly saw through Tang Hao's intentions, and for the first time, her previously lazy and playful face revealed a genuine look of shock and anger.

These magical herbs are her lifeblood, the foundation for her to refine more powerful elixirs and enhance her strength in the future.

She usually takes great care of it, even picking leaves and roots with great care, for fear of damaging its essence. This reckless man actually wanted to pull it out directly!

"Stop right there!"

With a roar, Ge Duo unleashed a blinding light from her staff, and countless poisonous vines surged toward Tang Hao from all directions like a wildly growing black tide, attempting to intercept him.

But Tang Hao was determined to leave, ignoring the attacks coming from behind, and poured all his soul power into speed and the Haotian Hammer in his hand.

"Get out of here!"

He roared, and the enormous Haotian Hammer, with its unstoppable momentum, smashed fiercely into the energy shield protecting the nearest immortal herb.

Boom!

A deafening explosion rang out instantly.

The energy shield protecting the immortal herb trembled violently, its light flashing rapidly, and instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks.

Tang Hao's powerful attack was astonishing, actually creating a hole in the solid defense.

The moment the hole appeared, an even purer energy aura rushed towards him, invigorating Tang Hao.

Right now!

A glint of greed and determination flashed in his eyes. His left hand shot out with lightning speed, his five fingers forming a claw, directly grabbing at the root of the immortal herb.

Succeeded?

The moment this thought arose in Tang Hao's mind, a roar rang in his ears.

"you wanna die!"

Gedo was icy cold to the bone, and contained a raging inferno.

This time, she was truly enraged.

Seeing that the precious herb she cherished was about to be defiled and taken away, Geduo could no longer maintain her composure.

Her soul power erupted like a volcano, and a ghostly green light shot into the sky, reflecting an eerie light onto the red and blue spring water.

Gedo raised her twisted wooden staff high, the dark gem at the top of the staff seemingly transforming into a black hole that devoured everything, frantically drawing in all the energy around her.

"Demon Vine Domain - Cataclysmic Disaster!"

Gedo's voice seemed to come from the deepest hell, carrying a will to destroy everything.

This is her trump card, a perfect combination of her witch's curse power and her ninth soul skill, drawing upon the berserk essence of all the poisonous plants in the domain to unleash a devastating attack.

In an instant, the entire Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye seemed to be plunged into the apocalypse.

All the poisonous vines and demonic flowers, whether or not they had been destroyed by Tang Hao before, burst into a frenzied, eerie green flame at this moment. They were no longer independent entities, but had become part of the destructive torrent.

The sky darkened instantly, and countless vines burning with eerie green flames, like tentacles from hell, blotted out the sun, carrying the deadly poison that corroded souls and the malevolent intent to burn everything, converging and strangling towards Tang Hao from all directions.

Tang Hao's fingertips were almost touching the stem of the immortal herb, but a terrifying sense of crisis came from behind him that made his soul tremble, causing the hairs on his body to stand on end.

This blow cannot be taken head-on! It will kill you!

A strong survival instinct overwhelmed all greed.

Tang Hao let out a roar of unwilling anger, abruptly stopping his picking action. He turned around abruptly and poured all his soul power into the Haotian Hammer without reservation.

"Haotian's True Form! Explode!"

His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like a madman. Without any hesitation, he detonated a ten-thousand-year-old soul ring at his feet.

Boom!

A terrifying energy storm exploded outwards from Tang Hao, forcefully shattering and annihilating the first wave of Netherfire Poison Vines, giving him a moment to catch his breath.

But Godot's "catastrophe of destruction" did not stop. More ghostly fire vines came one after another, crushing down with an even more violent momentum.

It's unstoppable! Absolutely unstoppable!

Tang Hao's pupils contracted, and an unprecedented shock surged within him.

This woman's desperate attack was terrifyingly powerful.

The destructive torrent was about to engulf him completely. If he were swept in, he would be severely injured, even if he didn't die, and might even be captured alive by Ge Duo.

We absolutely cannot let it fall into her hands!

A flicker of pain and determination flashed in Tang Hao's eyes, and he gritted his teeth.

"Bomb! Bomb!"

He roared madly and detonated two more black, ten-thousand-year-old soul rings in succession.

Boom! Boom!

Three earth-shattering explosions rang out within his body in succession, and a terrifying energy storm swept outwards from him, forcibly dispersing some of the demonic vines.

This also caused Tang Hao's own aura to instantly soar to an unimaginable height, as if in a final burst of energy!

This was his trump card for survival, but also a forbidden technique for self-harm! A series of explosions granted him immense power in a short period.

"Great Sumeru Hammer - Ultimate Technique! Sacrifice!"

Tang Hao poured all the violent energy generated by the exploding rings into the Haotian Hammer without reservation.

Chapter 128 No, he can't give up.

The massive Haotian Hammer seemed unable to withstand this enormous power, emitting a trembling sound, but the power it exuded at this moment also reached an unprecedented peak.

Tang Hao gripped his hammer with both hands, his eyes bloodshot, and charged towards the overwhelming vines.

The surging torrent of demonic vines was blasted open by this devastating blow, creating a huge gap that even slightly distorted space itself.

Using the terrifying recoil from the three soul ring explosions, Tang Hao was struck as if by an invisible giant hand. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body, like a kite with a broken string, was sent flying backward at an even faster speed than before, leaving the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye's range in an instant and disappearing into the Sunset Forest outside.

He didn't even dare to look back, pushing himself to the limit by aggravating his injuries, wanting only to get away from this terrifying woman and that eerie spring as quickly as possible.

……

Within the dual eyes of ice and fire, the earth-shattering energy fluctuations gradually subsided.

The eerie green flames gradually died down, and the raging demonic vines, having lost their support, drooped softly, many turning to ashes.

At this moment, the Ice and Fire Dual Eyes were in complete disarray.

The once meticulously maintained valley is now riddled with pits, charred marks, and deep pits corroded by venom. Many of the poisonous flowers and plants that Gedo later transplanted were reduced to ashes in the collision and Tang Hao's final explosion.

Gedo stood in front of the hut, her chest heaving slightly, her face pale from the immense depletion of her soul power and her anger.

Looking at the devastated scene before her, especially sensing the destroyed poisonous plants she had painstakingly cultivated, her anger surged like magma.

"Tang! Hao!"

Ge Duo practically squeezed out those two words from between her teeth, her eerie green eyes gleaming with a cold light.

"You, Tang Hao, are truly excellent!"

She originally intended to use the allure of elixirs and immortal herbs to slowly subdue this desperate tiger and turn him into her pawn. However, she never expected that his personality would be so fierce and irritable.

Just a few words of provocation were enough to make him completely lose his mind. Not only did he dare to lay a hand on her, but he also dared to set his sights on her magic herb!

Thinking of this, Ge Duo couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

She was provoked by Tang Hao's arrogant attitude and couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks, forgetting that Tang Hao was different from politicians and princes like Dai Mubai and Zhu Tianlin who were used to weighing the pros and cons.

He was a man who had fought his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood; he was proud to the core and extremely obsessive.

His dignity and pride are not to be desecrated, especially now that he is at the lowest point in his life.

Her own sarcastic remarks were like rubbing salt into his already bleeding wounds, completely igniting the long-suppressed volcano within him.

"A miscalculation."

Ge Duo took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her surging anger, and began to check the condition of the immortal herb.

Fortunately, those precious medicinal herbs were protected by the powerful energy barrier she had set up.

Although Tang Hao broke one part, he did not damage the immortal herb itself, and the barrier was rapidly repairing itself. The other immortal herbs were completely unharmed.

The damaged items were mostly the poisonous flowers and plants she used for defense and offense. Although it pained her, they were not irreplaceable.

"Hmph, you're lucky you ran fast!" Ge Duo snorted coldly, her eyes still filled with murderous intent as she looked in the direction Tang Hao had disappeared.

She noted down the expense.

However, after this incident, she completely gave up the idea of ​​recruiting Tang Hao.

This is a mad tiger that can't be tamed and will turn on you. Rather than trying to control it, it's better to find an opportunity to get rid of it completely, or wait until the Spirit Hall forces it into a desperate situation before watching the show.

She adjusted her breathing, began to activate her soul power, and guided the energy of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes to repair the damaged valley.

……

Deep in the Sunset Forest, a disheveled figure stumbled through the dense woods at great speed, yet with a sense of panicked desperation.

It was Tang Hao.

His face was as pale as paper, with traces of blood still clinging to the corners of his mouth. His chest heaved violently, each breath pulling at his internal injuries and causing waves of tearing pain.

He paid a heavy price for destroying three ten-thousand-year soul rings, enduring Gedo's "World-Destroying Catastrophe," and finally escaping using the backlash from the explosions.

But at this moment, he couldn't care less about his injuries; his heart was filled with humiliation, anger, and regret that were even stronger than his physical wounds.

Trying to steal chickens but losing rice instead!

They didn't even get a single herb, and were severely injured in the process.

This was undoubtedly adding insult to injury for him, who was already in a difficult situation.

"Ge Duo... you bastard! I, Tang Hao, will never let you get away with this!" Tang Hao roared, slamming his fist into the ancient tree beside him. The trunk instantly shattered, sending wood chips flying everywhere.

After the release, however, comes an even deeper sense of powerlessness.

Unable to defeat them in battle, and unable to seize them by force, the path to obtaining the elixir seemed to be completely cut off.

Is that really the only path left?

That was the place he least wanted to face, the place he was most ashamed to set foot in.

Tang Hao subconsciously raised his head, his gaze seemingly piercing through dense forests, looking towards the center of Tian Dou City.

Moon Pavilion.

His sister, Tang Yuehua, was there.

Is he going?

Once this thought arose, it grew wildly like a vine, entwining itself in Tang Hao's mind.

Longing, guilt, shame, and a sliver of hope in desperation—a complex mix of emotions churned and clashed within him, making his already disordered breathing even more erratic.

Go see Yuehua?

His younger sister, who had followed him since childhood, had a voice as melodious as a clear spring and always looked at him with adoration.

How could Tang Hao possibly face her now?

Back then, he was full of vigor and ambition, an unparalleled genius of the Haotian Sect, and the elder brother that Yuehua was proud of.

But what about now? He is a useless person who has been expelled from his sect, hunted by the Spirit Hall, hiding like a rat in the gutter, and even has to steal pills but still fails and gets seriously injured.

A loser who couldn't even protect his wife.

Intense pain swept over him again. Tang Hao groaned and grabbed the ancient tree beside him, his knuckles turning white from the force.

The image of Ayin offering her sacrifice intertwined with the image of her father's disappointed gaze before his death, almost tearing his sanity apart.

Not going?
