Douluo Continent: The Drunken Sword Immortal slaps Ning Rongrong in the face right from the start!

Chapter 20 Explosion, Reflections on the Battle

Ye Yan was able to easily neutralize Chen Xin's attacks at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School because his understanding of sword intent had long surpassed Chen Xin's.

But now he was facing a killing god who had killed countless people, and Ye Yan could not match him in terms of killing intent.

Then we'll have to find another way.

"Third Soul Skill, Blood-Transforming Sword Qi Slash!"

The sword in Ye Yan's hand was enveloped in a layer of white sword energy, but compared with his previous moves and sword energy, this move was much weaker in terms of aura.

Tang Hao frowned as he looked at the other person. Was he underestimating him?

"Sky-Piercing Strike!"

The Clear Sky Hammer in Tang Hao's hand grew several times larger, as if it could level the surrounding area with a single blow!

Ye Yan swiftly dodged, and there seemed to be some visible light between his legs!

It's a soul bone!

But he wasn't trying to hide; instead, Ye Yan unleashed his sword techniques after arriving beside Tang Hao.

Tang Hao knew he had to be cautious when facing an opponent who was no less capable than himself, so the moment Ye Yan approached, he raised his Haotian Hammer and smashed it down!

"Your reaction time is pretty quick, but I'm even faster!"

Although Tang Hao seemed to have repelled Ye Yan with his attack just now, bloody marks appeared all over Tang Hao's body!

Ye Yan had already completed his attack before Tang Hao launched it!

"Hmph, this little wound won't heal for long. Your attacks are useless against me!"

Tang Hao gripped the Clear Sky Hammer and continued his attack. Ye Yan also avoided direct confrontation with Tang Hao, dodging all of Tang Hao's attacks.

Zhu Zhuqing, who was watching from a distance, hadn't even seen what had happened, but now, why did it feel like her senior was being chased and beaten?

Could it be that the senior has fallen into a disadvantageous position?

Should she go back to Soto City to report to the Spirit Hall?

That person seems to have mistaken the senior for someone from the Spirit Hall, which is why he's chasing after him. He must have a grudge against the Spirit Hall. If I go back and report this, I can find help to assist the senior!

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing had the idea of ​​heading towards Soto City, and took advantage of the two not paying attention to run back!

The battle was still ongoing, and Tang Hao was starting to feel tired.

If he were at his peak, what would this little bit of time mean to him!

However, he already had hidden injuries, and coupled with more than a decade of alcoholism and decadence, his health had long since deteriorated.

Suddenly, Tang Hao seemed to realize something and looked at the wound on his body that the other party had just slashed. Although it was not big or deep, it was still making him bleed!

What's going on?

With his strength, this wound should only take him a few minutes to heal, but now it can't?

Tang Hao tried to guide his soul power to accelerate the healing of his wound, but found that something was resisting his soul power at the wound site!

Ye Yan found a big tree to lean against, opened the wine gourd, and took a sip of wine.

His third soul skill, Blood-Transforming Sword Qi, was obtained from a thousand-year-old vampire slug. This soul skill can cause enemies to suffer a continuous bleeding effect.

To stop this effect, you either need to leave Ye Yan's vicinity; without Ye Yan's soul power, the effect will naturally disappear.

Or it could be to use powerful soul power to neutralize Ye Yan's soul power as well!

With Ye Yan's current level 93 soul power, there are very few people who can counteract his soul power.

Tang Hao might have been able to do it at his peak, but now he has hidden injuries in his body and cannot exert his full soul power. Otherwise, he would suffer more damage to his hidden injuries than he would gain!

Ye Yan drank his wine while observing Tang Hao's every move.

Although he was somewhat outmatched by Tang Hao in terms of killing intent, he was still quite capable in actual combat and killing!

Those who can achieve the title of Douluo are all the best on the continent.

Although Ye Yan has a system that allows him to increase his soul power by drinking, it only increases his soul power. These sword moves and combat skills are what he has accumulated through countless battles and life-and-death situations!

Unlike Tang Hao, who has only been drinking heavily all these years, Ye Yan has never slacked off in his training!

"Fifth Soul Skill, One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate!"

Ye Yan wouldn't wait for Tang Hao to adjust his condition. Since Tang Hao had come to intercept him halfway and tried to kill him, Ye Yan naturally wouldn't hold back!

Tang Hao gritted his teeth. His current physical condition was insufficient to support him using the Clear Sky Sect's unique technique, Ring Explosion. Therefore, the only option was...

"The Great Sumeru Hammer!"

This is a soul skill created by Tang Chen, the founder of the Clear Sky Sect and also Tang Hao's father. Its power is in no way inferior to the ninth soul skill!

Originally, this soul skill could have been even more powerful if it were used in conjunction with the exploding ring, but unfortunately Tang Hao's current body cannot support it.

Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer grew enormous, and he smashed it into Ye Yan's sword energy. The two collided and were evenly matched!

boom--

The two enormous forces eventually exploded with a loud bang, blasting both of them away.

After Ye Yan steadied himself, he looked over there again, but Tang Hao was no longer there.

"They escaped?"

There was no longer any fluctuation of his soul power in the vicinity, so he was either dead or had escaped.

However, a powerful individual of this caliber wouldn't die so easily; they must have used the explosion to escape.

Ye Yan sheathed his sword. At least this fight wasn't without its gains. It seems that solidifying the killing intent wasn't the peak of this will.

When sword intent reaches its peak, it can condense into a domain; the same is true for killing intent.

What if it's another kind of will?

Ye Yan has come up with a great idea, and perhaps he can develop in that direction in the future.

Where did that kitten go? Wasn't I supposed to leave it here and wait for me?

After the battle ended, Ye Yan remembered Zhu Zhuqing, but after searching around, he couldn't find any trace of her.

Could it be that it was blown away by the explosion just now?

Or did they run away even earlier?

Ye Yan shook his head. Since that's the case, he would set off on his journey again.

While in Soto City, the tavern owner mentioned that a batch of Heavenly Fire Wine seemed to have been produced in Heavenly Fire City in the western part of the Heavenly Dou Empire, further up from Soto City.

The tavern owner described the wine as if it were heavenly nectar, which aroused Ye Yan's thirst for alcohol.

Therefore, Ye Yan did not plan to stay in Soto City for long and chose to set off. He wanted to try the Heavenly Fire Wine and see if it was as magical as the tavern owner had said!

As for Zhu Zhuqing not being able to be found, that means their fate has come to an end.

However, after thinking about it, Ye Yan still casually made two slashes on a tree with his sword.

"Alright, let's go."

puff--

Tang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood; the attack had brought out the hidden injuries in his body.

The Spirit Hall has actually cultivated such a being; it seems their plans need some adjustments.

But before that, I still need to protect the mistress. At least until he can stand on his own, I need to protect him well!
