CHAPTER 330: CHAPTER 330: NINE RINGS EXPLODED, COMPARABLE TO A GOD

Looking at the seemingly endless, narrow sword scar before her, Bibi Dong’s expression froze, and a trace of fear flashed in her purple eyes.

If Xiao Yu hadn’t warned her, could she have blocked that attack?!

As expected of Ring Explosion, as expected of Tang Chen...

She had indeed underestimated him.

In the next moment, before Bibi Dong could regain her composure, Tang Chen’s Clear Sky Hammer in his right hand spun rapidly.

The hammer’s surface shot straight toward Bibi Dong.

The terrifying hammer wind instantly swept across Bibi Dong’s face as she stood in a daze.

"Bang!!"

Just as the hammer was about to strike Bibi Dong, a golden dragon claw blocked the hammer’s descent.

The one who intervened was Xiao Yu.

Facing Tang Chen, who had unleashed Ring Explosion, Xiao Yu dared not show any carelessness or hold back. Through the Light Domain, he activated the Holy Light Dragon transformation, his entire body clad in Holy Light Dragon armor.

Coupled with the semi-divine body granted by the True Dragon Nine Crowns, he managed to block Tang Chen’s hammer strike, which had been amplified by Ring Explosion!

Meanwhile, Bibi Dong, who had regained her senses, used her Rakshasa Scythe to block Tang Chen’s sneak attack with the Asura God’s Sword.

In an instant, with both the Clear Sky Hammer and the Asura God’s Sword restrained, Tang Chen found himself in a pincer attack.

Yet, Tang Chen remained absolutely confident, his face still exuding an air of invincibility.

Seeing that he was temporarily restrained by the two, Tang Chen even let go of the Asura God’s Sword, allowing Bibi Dong to suppress it.

He then focused entirely on dealing with Xiao Yu.

Looking at Xiao Yu, Tang Chen smiled faintly.

"Good lad, you actually blocked one of my hammer strikes! Even Qian Daoliu wouldn’t dare to take a hit from me! Let’s see how many more you can block!"

"Bang!!"

"Bang!!"

In the next moment, two more black soul rings beneath Tang Chen’s feet exploded.

The surge of power from the 10,000-year soul rings immediately amplified Tang Chen’s strength, causing his muscles to bulge once more. The force behind his hammer strikes increased dramatically.

However, despite Tang Chen’s confident and invincible demeanor, Xiao Yu stubbornly held his ground against the Clear Sky Hammer’s force, not retreating a single step.

The two were locked in a stalemate.

Seeing this, Tang Chen was momentarily stunned.

Then, he noticed a flash of ferocity in Xiao Yu’s eyes.

A gray aura began to swirl around Xiao Yu...

Dragon King’s Might!!

"Roar!!"

As Xiao Yu let out a deafening roar, a wave of dragon might instantly suppressed Tang Chen.

The previously overwhelming Tang Chen suddenly felt his aura being suppressed by the dragon’s roar!

Moreover, he could feel his physical attributes being reduced by another 30%.

Combined with the earlier Dark Domain, that was a total of 40% reduction—nearly half of his attributes!!

Feeling this, Tang Chen was dumbfounded.

What was happening?

Realizing something was wrong, Tang Chen immediately exploded two more black soul rings.

He decided to end the fight quickly.

Now, the previously invincible Tang Chen showed a trace of panic in his eyes for the first time.

"Bang!"

"Bang!!"

Instantly, Tang Chen’s strength increased again!

But even after exploding six soul rings, he still couldn’t budge Xiao Yu, who stood firm, gripping the Clear Sky Hammer’s head.

At this moment, Xiao Yu was actually using a clever tactic.

The terror of the Clear Sky Hammer lay not in its raw power but in the explosive force generated by its downward swing. Once this explosive force was neutralized, the Clear Sky Hammer, relying solely on brute strength, was no longer fearsome.

After all, when it came to pure strength, how could a man with a hammer compare to a dragon?

Dragons were born at the pinnacle of strength.

Humans, on the other hand, had to train for countless years just to reach the starting point of a dragon’s strength.

Thus, even though Tang Chen had exploded six 10,000-year black soul rings, he couldn’t fully utilize the power boost from Ring Explosion.

With his hammer stuck in Xiao Yu’s grip and unable to overpower him, Tang Chen realized that if this stalemate continued, he would likely lose.

Seeing this, Tang Chen was completely dumbfounded.

Especially since the Asura God’s Sword was now suppressed by Bibi Dong and couldn’t be used, Tang Chen was momentarily at a loss.

However, before Tang Chen could come up with a solution, Xiao Yu punched him hard in the face.

"Bang!!"

"Thud!!"

A full-powered punch from a semi-divine body, enhanced by the Holy Light Dragon armor.

Even Tang Chen couldn’t withstand such destructive force.

In an instant, after the punch, Tang Chen’s aged body was sent flying dozens of meters.

The Clear Sky Hammer was knocked out of his hand.

As Tang Chen flew through the air, trails of blood followed him.

But soon, Tang Chen regained his balance.

His blood-red wings fluttered slightly, stabilizing his body in mid-air.

Clutching his painfully swollen face, Tang Chen’s expression was one of utter disbelief.

"No, impossible, impossible!!!"

Tang Chen couldn’t believe that even after exploding six soul rings, he couldn’t budge Xiao Yu. His expression grew even more distraught.

That was the power boost from exploding six soul rings!

Even Qian Daoliu, if he tried to block my full-powered strike with his ninth soul skill, would undoubtedly die!

But such immense power couldn’t even move a junior?!

How is this possible?

At this moment, the previously confident Tang Chen couldn’t accept this reality.

The invincible look on his face was completely replaced by disbelief.

Then, with a crazed expression, he shouted, "No, this can’t be! Even if I die today, I’ll take you two with me!! I won’t allow you to continue living and threatening the Clear Sky Sect’s position!"

"Bang!!"

"Bang!!"

"Bang!!"

In an instant, the deranged Tang Chen exploded his last three soul rings and summoned his Clear Sky Hammer back.

Gripping the hammer tightly, he channeled his soul power into it.

Now, with a 90,000-year seventh soul ring, a 100,000-year eighth soul ring, and a 120,000-year ninth soul ring, the all-around boost from exploding these three rings elevated Tang Chen’s physical state to another level.

At this moment, feeling the flow of soul power within him and the explosive strength, Tang Chen felt as if he had become a god.

This indescribable sensation of touching that thin barrier reminded him of when he first awakened his innate full soul power and hunted for his first soul ring.

Now, with his power greatly increased, Tang Chen felt that he was only missing that final tenth soul ring. If he could absorb it in this state, he might truly achieve godhood at level 100.
