Douluo Continent: Dragon's Journey Across the World

Chapter 249 First Battle with Tang Hao

With Yang Ping'an's appearance, Tang Hao and Tang San's expressions turned serious.

Tang Hao was surprised that the killing intent he was emitting could be blocked, especially since the person in front of him was only a Soul Saint. He knew that even a Title Douluo might not be able to withstand his killing intent.

Tang San was even more surprised. Although Yang Ping'an's figure and hair had changed significantly over the past five years, his face was still vaguely that of the opponent who had defeated him repeatedly in the Soul Master Competition five years ago.

Tang San stared intently at Yang Ping'an: "Yang Ping'an, what business do you have with my father?"

Yang Ping'an's gaze was fixed on Tang Hao. Although he had only caught a glimpse of Tang Hao over the years, his father's hatred had made Tang Hao's image flash through his mind countless times. Now that he saw him in person, he seemed to be unable to suppress his anger and killing intent.

Just then, four figures appeared behind Tang Hao. Yang Ping'an glanced at them coldly. These four were Titan, Bai He, Yang Wudi, and Niu Gao, and all four looked very serious.

Yang Ping'an stared intently at Tang Hao: "Tang Hao, you've made me search so hard. I never expected you to be hiding in such a dilapidated little courtyard."

Tang Hao's face darkened: "I don't know why you summoned me here. I have nothing to do with you."

Yang Ping'an laughed in anger: "Is that so? You may not know me, but I have a score to settle with you."

Tang Hao scoffed coldly, "You think you're worthy to settle scores with me? You're underestimating me."

Yang Ping'an said calmly, "Whether it counts or not is one thing, whether it's you or not is another matter entirely."

"Based on the traces at the scene, there's an 80% chance that my father was murdered by the Clear Sky Hammer. And among the Clear Sky Sect members who have been outside the sect all these years, you, Tang Hao, are the only ones. Who else could it be?"

Tang Hao said calmly, "I don't know your father, nor do I know you, so if you're looking for revenge, you've probably come to the wrong person."

Yang Ping'an couldn't help but laugh: "Trying to cover it up only makes things worse. It seems I've come to the right person. The murderer back then was definitely you, Tang Hao."

Titan, standing nearby, roared, "My master has always been open and honest. If he says he's not your enemy, then he absolutely isn't!"

Yang Ping'an glanced at Titan casually: "Titan, I know Tang Hao's personality better than you do. If he wasn't the one who killed my father back then, there's no need for him to pretend he's never met me. After all, Tang San and I were classmates for two years. Not to mention, I even beat Tang San twice in the Soul Master Competition. Tang Hao probably already knows who I am."

"Right? The mighty Haotian Douluo actually resorts to tricks, daring to do it but not daring to admit it."

At this moment, Tang Hao's face was extremely gloomy, as if some of his thoughts had been exposed.

Tang San spoke with a serious expression: "Yang Ping'an, these are all just your speculations, there is no evidence whatsoever. Don't make false accusations against my father based on these speculations."

Yang Ping'an laughed in fury: "Framed? What a fine framed thing! My father went to Holy Soul Village, met Tang Hao, and on the way back, his entire group was killed by the Clear Sky Hammer. Doesn't that count as evidence, Tang Hao?"

"All these years of diligent cultivation have been for the purpose of revenge. Even if you don't remember me, do you remember my father, Yu Xiaohui?"

When Yang Ping'an mentioned Yu Xiaohui's name, everyone present was clearly taken aback, especially Yang Wudi, whose face seemed to show a hint of emotion.

Yang Ping'an ignored him and continued, "Back then, when you were being hunted by the Spirit Hall, you hid in Holy Soul Village with Tang San, working as a drunken blacksmith. That did allow you to evade the pursuit of everyone in the world, but my father must have known your identity, which is why you killed him to silence him. Am I right, Tang Hao?"

Everyone present fell silent. Even Titan and Tang San didn't say anything. After all, the battle with the Clear Sky Sect was of great importance, and Tang Hao was indeed in great danger at the time. If he were exposed even slightly, he would attract endless pursuit.

Tang Hao's face turned fierce: "So what if it was me? Yes, I killed Yu Xiaohui back then. A real man takes responsibility for his actions. Do you think you, a little brat, can stir up any trouble? Since you know, you should hide even more. Otherwise, do you really think you can challenge a Title Douluo?"

As Tang Hao finished speaking, a murderous aura filled the entire courtyard, and the entire space seemed to fall silent—this was the Killing God Domain.

Yang Ping'an's eyes seemed to turn bloodshot, and an immense killing intent surged forth, making him appear like a blood-red figure, also belonging to the Killing God Domain.

The two people's killing domains collided repeatedly in the air, as if trying to tear the air apart. In just an instant, most of the furnishings in the courtyard turned to ashes under the collision of their killing domains.

Whether it was Tang San or the four Titans, their expressions became serious. They never expected that a mere Soul Saint could actually clash with Tang Hao's Killing God Domain and even hold his own.

Tang Hao let out a cold laugh: "I didn't expect you to be the one from the City of Slaughter. It seems I underestimated you. But I am the dignified Haotian Douluo, how dare you, a mere brat, provoke me?"

As Tang Hao finished speaking, his entire being transformed into a gigantic, blood-red figure, causing the entire world to tremble. Clearly, he had pushed the Killing God Domain to its absolute limit.

But Yang Ping'an was equally unwilling to be outdone, and he used the Killing God Domain to its fullest extent, making him look as if he had emerged from a sea of ​​blood.

After a series of clashes between the two, Yang Ping'an finally took a step back. It was clear that in terms of domain and soul power, he was still somewhat inferior to Tang Hao. After all, Tang Hao was a Title Douluo, and even with one arm missing, he was still at level ninety-one.

Especially in terms of aura, Tang Hao was clearly more domineering and more imposing. No wonder he was able to beat the Pope as soon as he entered the Title Douluo realm.

But at that moment, a huge dragon shadow seemed to fly out from Yang Ping'an's body. His original God of Slaughter Domain disappeared, and instead, a golden light burst forth from his body, which was Yang Ping'an's Demonic Dragon Domain.

As the Demonic Dragon Domain was unleashed, the golden light collided with Tang Hao's Killing God Domain. The dragon shadow within the golden light seemed to begin devouring the Killing God Domain, and its momentum gradually began to overwhelm Tang Hao.

As the Demonic Dragon Domain grew stronger, Tang Hao lost all his previous composure. His Killing God Domain gradually began to falter. Finally, with a huge collision of domains, the stone table in front of Tang Hao, where he was drinking, shattered. Tang Hao himself stood up from his stool and even took two steps back.

Clearly, Yang Ping'an had surpassed Tang Hao in the clash of their domains, especially with that ferocious dragon shadow, which made everyone present feel a sense of unease.

At this moment, a hint of anger appeared on Tang Hao's face: "I didn't expect that someone so young would have two domains. It seems that you have gone to any lengths to seek revenge all these years."

"But didn't you arrive a little too early? After all, I'm a Title Douluo. Aren't you afraid I'll kill you beforehand?"

Yang Ping'an's eyes were filled with ferocity, and his face was extremely grotesque: "Then we'll see if you have the ability. I want to see what kind of strength this so-called Haotian Douluo really has."

Tang Hao glanced around, especially at Tang San, and said, "Fighting here in Heaven Dou City isn't fun. Let's go outside the city and have a battle. I want to see what you, this junior, are really capable of."

As Tang Hao finished speaking, he soared into the sky and flew swiftly out of the city.

Yang Ping'an sneered and transformed into a figure, rushing out of the city. This Tang Hao was probably up to something, fearing that a battle between the two of them here would destroy the Tang Sect that Tang San had established.

Titan and the others exchanged glances, then quickly left Heaven Dou City with Tang San.

Just a few minutes later, in an open space outside Tiandou City, Yang Ping'an and Tang Hao stood facing each other only a few dozen meters apart, while Titan and the other three, along with Tang San, observed from a distance. Clearly, they did not believe that a mere Soul Saint could defeat a Title Douluo.

Tang Hao stared at Yang Ping'an and sneered, "Boy, do you know that everyone below the Title Douluo level is just an ant? That's because Title Douluos can fly. No matter how strong you are, you will always be at a disadvantage."

Indeed, as Tang Hao said, there is a great chasm between Title Douluos. Apart from a few flying Soul Masters, only Title Douluos can fly, while ordinary Soul Masters can only use the power of the ground to propel themselves. In the end, they are still at a disadvantage. Not to mention that the soul power of Title Douluos has begun to change and is far more profound than that of ordinary Soul Masters.

Yang Ping'an couldn't help but laugh: "For the dignified Haotian Douluo to say such things, he seems to be nothing more than a frog in a well, nothing special."

As Yang Ping'an finished speaking, six golden wings instantly extended from his back, and with the flapping of the six wings, he flew into the sky.

Tang Hao floated directly in the air, a huge Clear Sky Hammer appeared in his hand, and two yellow, two purple, four black and one red spirit rings appeared under his feet. Especially when the red spirit ring appeared, even though Tang San and the other five were far away, they still felt great pressure.

Yang Ping'an was directly possessed by a huge golden demonic dragon, and his entire body seemed to radiate golden light. At the same time, two yellow, two purple, two black and one red soul rings appeared. Even Tang Hao was extremely surprised to see Yang Ping'an's seventh soul ring after 100,000 years.

For the past twenty years or so, no 100,000-year-old soul beasts have appeared on the entire Douluo Continent. The only one to appear was Xiao Wu, a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast, but she was captured by the Spirit Hall.

Tang San stared intently at Yang Ping'an's 100,000-year spirit ring, and finally shook his head: "No, this is not Xiao Wu's spirit ring."

At this moment, Tang Hao also became serious. Even he dared not underestimate a Soul Saint who possessed a 100,000-year-old Soul Ring.

Tang Hao, wielding the Clear Sky Hammer, flew rapidly towards Yang Ping'an and slammed the hammer down. Even though it was just a simple strike, it seemed to possess boundless power. As expected of the Clear Sky Hammer, hailed as the number one weapon spirit in the world, it truly possessed ultimate power.

Yang Ping'an completed his dragon transformation in an instant. His entire body, except for his head, was instantly covered with golden scales. His limbs and torso, in particular, seemed to have become much thicker and longer, making him look extremely ferocious.

Seeing Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer coming down, Yang Ping'an also grabbed with all his might. The huge Clear Sky Hammer collided with his hand, and the two of them were pushed back several meters at the same time.

The two attacks, though seemingly evenly matched, caused Yang Ping'an to feel an extremely strong force in his palm, which was incredibly painful. Compared to the Jade Crown, and even compared to the Serpent Spear Douluo and his master Chrysanthemum Douluo, the power of the Clear Sky Hammer seemed even more terrifying.

Especially after Tang Hao unleashed the Clear Sky Hammer, he struck it one blow after another, his attacks so tight and impenetrable that even when Yang Ping'an used all his strength, his dragon-transformed body seemed about to be shattered by the heavy hammer.

However, facing Tang Hao, Yang Ping'an absolutely did not want to admit defeat. His third and fourth spirit rings flashed at the same time as he used Dark Gold Demon Dragon Transformation and Tear Crocodile Claw simultaneously.

Even with such a powerful boost, Yang Ping'an still felt it wasn't enough against Tang Hao. Five steel claws appeared directly on his fingers, which had originally transformed into dragon claws. These were the Dark Gold Terror Claws, an external soul bone. It should be noted that Yang Ping'an did not use an external soul bone even when facing Yu Luomian.

As Yang Ping'an used two amplification skills at the same time, his dragon-transformed body seemed to grow taller again, exceeding two and a half meters in height, making him look like a ferocious beast.

In particular, the external soul bone, the Dark Gold Terror Claw, was the first soul bone Yang Ping'an obtained. After absorbing soul rings and being tempered in the Yin-Yang Well for so many years, its age has exceeded 30,000 years, making it an extremely powerful offensive soul bone.

Yang Ping'an charged directly at Tang Hao like a vicious dragon, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

Tang Hao's expression also became relatively serious. As the Haotian Douluo, he had extremely rich combat experience and clearly understood the power of Yang Ping'an's two amplification skills. Without hesitation, he gripped the Haotian Hammer and attacked. (End of this chapter)
