Currently, of the ambush team deployed at the border, only the last three Spirit Saints and Tang Xiao from the Clear Sky Sect remain. Two Titled Douluo, three Spirit Douluo, six Spirit Saints, and more than ten Spirit Emperors have been reduced to just Tang Xiao.
These three Spirit Saints have also been trapped by Su Wen's illusions.
This means that now, only Tang Xiao remains on the battlefield.
Looking at the devastated battlefield, his gaze fell upon the corpse of the Seventh Elder, causing a pang in Tang Xiao's heart.
He thought about the resolute decision he made before coming here, and now he was starting to regret it.
The time he spent cultivating the Great Sumeru Hammer was too short; currently, he can only withstand up to the explosion of five rings.
Perhaps he could try to explode more Spirit Rings to gain stronger power, but that would undoubtedly lead to his certain death.
In such a desperate situation, he began to feel some fear.
"This is the difference between me and Hao," Tang Xiao mocked himself, his crimson eyes gradually clearing.
At this moment, Su Wen had already condensed Wind Blades and killed the last three Spirit Saints.
Bone Douluo remained vigilant, not giving Tang Xiao any chance to escape.
"Tang Xiao, as I said, today your Clear Sky Sect should be disbanded."
Above the pagoda of the Spirit Fusion Technique, a phantom of Su Wen appeared, with the pagoda as the background and golden light swirling around him, making him appear god-like.
At this moment, even 'Xue Qinghe' couldn't help but glance sideways, a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Jiang Jun and Jiang Long, hidden in the dark, also couldn't help but sigh.
"Yet he already has a grand demeanor."
Tang Xiao looked at Su Wen's phantom, and the hatred in his eyes slowly dissipated.
"You killed Haodi under the guise of revenge. I want to know, what grudge do you hold?"
Looking at the sect master of Clear Sky Sect, Su Wen did not refuse his final question.
"The grudge of killing my father and killing my mother, exterminating my lineage."
In Su Wen's family, there were only three members. With his parents killed, he was the sole survivor. Calling it an extermination of the lineage might be an exaggeration, but it was close enough.
Tang Xiao chuckled lightly, though it was unclear whether it was self-mockery or something else, tears of blood streaming down his cheeks.
"Ah, fate, this is fate," he sighed repeatedly.
However, in the next moment, his face suddenly turned ferocious, like a wild beast about to devour its prey.
"But you should not have killed him in such a manner! You should not have insulted the dignity of our Clear Sky Sect!"
Tang Xiao once again became filled with killing intent.
If his previous intent was impure, now, it seemed his thoughts had become clearer, and his killing intent was intensely concentrated.
"For your revenge, you killed Haodi, I have nothing to say. But for our Clear Sky Sect's revenge, we will inevitably kill you!"
Tang Xiao's Soul Power fluctuations began to become unstable.
"He's breaking through?"
Gu Rong was surprised.
Previously, Tang Xiao's Soul Power was around level ninety-five. As he continued to rise, each level was not just about the concentration of Soul Power. Now, it seemed he had some sort of comprehension. His Soul Power began to fluctuate, showing signs of a breakthrough.
However, this fluctuation quickly stabilized again.
Tang Xiao suddenly looked at Su Wen, unable to believe it. "How is this possible!"
Just moments ago, Tang Xiao had felt the sensation of a breakthrough. Now, he found his Soul Power no longer fluctuating, but incredibly stable.
He clearly felt it moments ago, but now that imminent breakthrough sensation had vanished.
Perhaps, if he continued secluding himself for some time, he could swiftly achieve a breakthrough. However, lacking that impulse, he was definitely unable to undergo Evolution on the spot.
Yet, it had clearly been there, and now it was abruptly interrupted.
Tang Xiao looked towards Su Wen's phantom, his eyes filled with even more apprehension.
"Elder, aren't you going to make a move?" Tang Xiao's voice was deep.
His words caused Ning Fengzhi and the others to subtly change their expressions.
Someone else?
And Tang Xiao addressed him as 'Elder.'
However, Su Wen's phantom remained placid, gazing towards the sky behind Tang Xiao.
There, a figure slowly emerged from the spatial rifts. Clad in white robes, middle-aged in appearance, what caught the eye was a peculiar silver mark on his forehead.
Ning Fengzhi's pupils contracted.
Such methods involved spatial power!
No wonder!
No wonder Clear Sky Sect dared to undertake this operation.
They knew Su Wen had the ability of Space Shuttle, yet still attempted to assassinate him, because they also had the confidence to counter Su Wen's Space Shuttle.
"May I ask for your name, sir?" Ning Fengzhi asked in a solemn voice.
In the air, the middle-aged man in white robes looked complex, and slowly spoke, "Void Douluo."
Void Douluo?
Never heard of him.
Even Su Wen had no memory related to this Void Douluo.
"No need to wonder. I haven't revealed my strength on the continent, so you wouldn't know of my existence. Because of some acquaintance with Tang Chen, I intend to protect Tang Xiao this time. Gentlemen, please drop your weapons."
"Tang Chen!"
Ning Fengzhi was shaken.
Except for him, the others were somewhat puzzled, clearly unfamiliar with Tang Chen. Only 'Xue Qinghe' showed slight surprise.
The two hidden protectors, Jiang Jun and Jiang Long, were also secretly astonished.
Connected to Tang Chen, this Void Douluo was certainly not simple.
Especially the way Void Douluo had just appeared, undoubtedly involved the use of spatial power.
"Ninety-seventh level, spatial attribute Martial Spirit," Su Wen said casually.
Ninety-seventh level?
Upon hearing Su Wen's words, Ning Fengzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If it were ninety-ninth level, there would be no doubt.
However, this relief was relative.
Even if it was only ninety-seventh level, a Martial Spirit with a spatial attribute itself represented great strength.
This Void Douluo in terms of ability might not be inferior to a peerless Douluo at ninety-ninth level.
"Su Wen, you are outstanding, very strong, a genius that is rare in the continent for tens of millions of years. I do not wish to conflict with you," Void Douluo said earnestly as he looked at Su Wen.
"Today, I'm saving Tang Xiao's life. I hope everyone will not interfere. As for the grudge between Clear Sky Sect and you, I will not intervene after repaying Tang Chen's favor today."
Su Wen sneered.
"I've already said, today they all stay here. Any Spirit Master who intervenes will die!"
He pronounced each word deliberately as he looked at Void Douluo, saying, "Even if gods descend, this won't change."
Void Douluo's gaze sharpened, eyes narrowing, emitting a dangerous aura.
"You brat, bold words indeed. Do you truly understand the greatness of gods?" he retorted.
Su Wen remained composed, facing the pressure brought by Void Douluo without fear, even questioning back, "Void Douluo, are you sure you want to involve yourself in today's conflict?"
As a Super Douluo at the ninety-seventh level with spatial attribute, Su Wen couldn't kill Void Douluo.
However, if the other dared to intervene today, Su Wen made it clear he would remember this grudge.
Even though Void Douluo was so attuned to space and had such high control over it.
Even though he was enveloped in a strong layer of faith.
Su Wen had stated clearly: today, not even a god could take Tang Xiao away.
Moreover, this Void Douluo is not a god.
