Douro Continent

Chapter 429 Tang Sect's Tenth Chapter: Bat-Wing Reincarnation (Part 1)

But at that moment, layers of black light suddenly rose from beneath Dai Mubai's feet—these were strands of Blue Silver Grass. The Blue Silver Grass immediately solidified upon rising, becoming extremely hard. It not only blocked the distorted airflow outside but also created seven layers of barriers around Dai Mubai's body.

Faced with such a crisis, Tang San no longer cared about expending his soul power. He activated his ten-thousand-year soul ring skill, Blue Silver Prison, which consisted of seven layers and landed directly on Dai Mubai.

A piercing screeching sound erupted the moment the moonblade made contact with the blue silver cage.

On one side is the Moon Blade, backed by formidable soul power and amplified by a Soul Fusion Skill; on the other is an unprecedented fourth soul ring, a ten-thousand-year soul skill. Who will emerge victorious?

One after another, the blue-silver cages shattered as the moon blade spun and rubbed against them, but the red light contained within the moon blade was also clearly weakening.

Tang San, who was suspended in mid-air, did not remain idle. He descended from the sky, his Eight Spider Lances extending outwards, and pounced straight at Xie Yue.

With his eight spider spears and four limbs, Tang San could attack Xie Yue from up to twelve different directions. On the surface, Xie Yue appeared to be under pressure. However, given Tang San's attack capabilities, he was perfectly capable of launching attacks from all twelve directions.

However, at this moment, Xie Yue displayed his strength as a member of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation. He used a simple method to break through Tang San's overwhelming power as he descended from the sky.

His body spun around in a flash, and another moon blade shot into the sky, slashing towards Tang San as it spun at high speed. The moon blade emitted a piercing shriek, and in terms of impact, it was even stronger than the one that attacked Dai Mubai.

The attack on Dai Mubai required surprise, so Xie Yue didn't use his full strength to keep quiet. But when attacking Tang San, he naturally had no such reservations.

Seeing the moon blade hurtling towards him, Tang San was taken aback. He discovered that even with his Purple Demon Eye locking onto it, the moon blade's speed was still terrifying, and in reality, it left a trail of afterimages. Tang San immediately realized that the moon blade's cutting power was even greater than his Eight Spider Lances.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the battle, the seven layers of blue silver cage that Tang San had used to help Dai Mubai defend against had all shattered, but the moon blade was also running out of power. Dai Mubai's tiger claw blade popped out and knocked the moon blade away. The moon blade disappeared almost the instant it made contact with his tiger claw and reappeared in Xie Yue's hand.

A cold smile appeared on Xie Yue's lips. The match, now in full swing, was finally beginning to fall under his control. So what if you can see me amidst the allure? Once I gain the upper hand, you'll have no chance left.

Tang San, who was in mid-air, saw that Dai Mubai's crisis had been resolved. Although he was blasted away by Yan's punch when he knocked away his opponent's moon blade, with Dai Mubai's strength, he should be fine. Yan was also cleaved several meters away by Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Slash. The situation outside was still even.

The shrieking sound of the moon blade and the increasingly eerie red patterns on it put immense pressure on Tang San, but at this moment, his combat skills were on full display.

As the moon blade hurtled through the air, as if drawn to his own body, Tang San abruptly pulled back his outstretched arms. At the same time, his body spun rapidly in mid-air, and his left hand lashed out, sending the 500-pound Clear Sky Hammer directly at it.

With a deafening roar, the Haotian Hammer and the Moon Blade flew out almost simultaneously.

The Moon Blade had the advantage of the strong evil moon soul power, while the Clear Sky Hammer's hardness and terrifying weight of 500 jin also played a role. Therefore, the result of the collision between these two martial souls was that both were killed.

Xie Yue's expression changed slightly. He made a gesture with his right hand and swung his left hand. The moon blade that had been knocked away in mid-air quietly returned to his control, while another moon blade flew out again, heading towards Tang San's body. At the same time, the moon blade that had returned to his right hand was also thrown out.

Even if you can use your Clear Sky Hammer to block my Moon Blade, so what? You only have one Clear Sky Hammer, while I have two Moon Blades. I want to see how you withstand my attacks from both the front and the back.

To Tang San, the Moon Blade was like a larger version of the Wind-Returning Willow Leaf Blade. Seeing the two Moon Blades flying in an arc like shooting stars chasing the moon, he couldn't help but feel bitter. It was a terrible feeling for a master of hidden weapons to be used as a target by his opponent.

As his body plummeted through the air, Tang San became extremely calm. Purple-gold light shot out from his eyes, and his hands had completely turned jade-colored.

He couldn't use his own hidden weapons, so all he could rely on now was the Haotian Hammer he had recalled.

If Tang San were to use the Clear Sky Hammer to knock away his opponent's Moon Blade, he was certain that the opponent's soul power, which was far superior to his own, would inevitably injure him, making it absolutely unacceptable.

With his pupils suddenly contracting, Tang San made his move, still wielding the Clear Sky Hammer.

This time it didn't fly straight; the dark Haotian Hammer spun slowly in the air, seemingly slowly, but it met the first moon blade perfectly.

Just like before, the Haotian Hammer and the Moon Blade were knocked away at the same time, but a miraculous scene appeared: the Haotian Hammer, which was knocked away, actually intercepted the other Moon Blade in mid-air and collided with it again.

Although the power was insufficient this time, it was still enough to change the direction of the moon blade's flight, sending it flying diagonally away, posing no threat to Tang San himself.

Xie Yue's first reaction was that this was impossible. Could it be a coincidence?

This was certainly no coincidence. Tang San relied on the precise judgment of his Purple Demon Eye and the speed of the Clear Sky Hammer's rebound when it first struck the Moon Blade to hit the opponent's Moon Blade from the angle he needed. He changed the direction of the rebound while spinning, which allowed him to hit two at once and successfully knock the Moon Blade away.

In the Tang Clan's hidden weapon techniques, this is called killing two birds with one stone.

It wasn't a particularly sophisticated technique in itself. But the difficulty lay in the fact that the hidden weapon Tang San was using weighed 500 jin (250 kg), requiring a high level of control and precise calculation, which undoubtedly showcased his mastery of hidden weapons.

The two moon blades returned to Xie Yue's hands, and Tang San had also put his feet on the ground. In this confrontation, the two sides fought to a draw, with neither gaining an advantage.

Xie Yue was somewhat angry. Although his opponent possessed a soul bone, he was now combining the power of himself and Hu Liena. Judging from Tang San's movements, soul power, and reactions, the opponent was minimally affected by the Demon Charm skill, to the point of being negligible.

Even so, with his soul power being so much higher than his opponent's, how could he still not be able to defeat his opponent after so long?

No, that's impossible.

The effeminate-looking Xie Yue's pupils contracted sharply, the veins on his hands gripping the moon blades bulged, and his arms slowly stretched out to his sides, the moon blades unfolding and forming a circle. Staring at Tang San, his gaze was like that of a demon ready to devour him.

Tang San remained calm, unfazed even by the collapse of Mount Tai before him—a fundamental requirement of Tang Clan's hidden weapons. His ability to remain unaffected within the demonic barrier wasn't solely due to the neutralizing effect of the Eight Spider Lances on his back; equally important were his Purple Demon Eyes, which allowed him to see everything clearly, and his keen ears, capable of pinpointing sounds.

Taking a deep breath, Xie Yue seemed unhurried, gazing at Tang San. "You are the first person to try my self-created skill. You should feel honored to have been defeated by it."

Tang San coldly said, "You haven't won yet. When Feng Xiaotian used the Gale Wolf Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes on me, he probably had the same thought as you, and you saw the result."

With a disdainful smile, Xie Yue's eyes gleamed with an eerie light. "Does a newbie like Feng Xiaotian even compare to me? My self-created skill has no flaws. Experience it, Full Moon."

Xie Yue moved, his body moving like a whirlwind. In an instant, he and the two moon blades disappeared almost simultaneously, leaving only a huge white disc in front of Tang San.

There was no sound of friction or wind howling; it was as if all sound had been swallowed up by the disc. Only the red mist within the bewitching barrier swirled around the white disc like a vortex.

In order to defeat Tang San, Xie Yue finally used his strongest attack.

In terms of soul power, Xie Yue is roughly equal to Hu Liena and Yan, each possessing unique strengths in soul skills. His rise to become the leader of the Golden Generation is due to his self-created skill. And unleashing this skill within his Soul Fusion Skill, "Enchanting Charm," is his strongest attack. With this move, he personally defeated his teacher, whose soul power had reached level sixty-eight. This earned him the title of the number one among the younger generation of the Spirit Hall.

A full moon sounds like such a beautiful word, but at this moment, what appeared in front of Tang San was a self-created soul skill that was flawless.

A circle is the most perfect shape, without any flaws. Just by looking at it, Tang San knew that this powerful attack, which could not be found, was something that his Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique could not withstand.

Xie Yue wasn't exaggerating; his Crescent Moon skill was indeed far superior to Feng Xiaotian's Gale Wolf Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes, but in terms of attack frequency, the difference between the two was enormous.

The white disc that appears to be a reflection of Xie Yue's two moon blades spinning at an astonishing speed is actually the result of Xie Yue's actions.

Tang San knew that if he used the Spirit Fusion Skill in actual combat and then unleashed this skill at full power, even if Xie Yue won, he and Hu Liena would have very little spirit power left.
