Chapter 346: The Clear Sky Sect Seeking Death!
This light screen was not a blazing wall of fire, but rather more like a solid barrier condensed from the purest light and the most holy flames.
Atop the light screen, mysterious golden runes flowed, and the faint sound of hymn chanting echoed.
The next second.
"Boom—!!!!"
The collision between the blue-purple-black Annihilation Thunder Pillar and the golden Holy Flame Canopy finally reached a critical point. Immediately afterward, the two attacks—diametrically opposed in nature yet both containing power bordering on Law—erupted violently amidst their continuous clashing and annihilation!
It was not a case of one side defeating the other; rather, the terrifying energy contained within both became completely unstable under the extreme pressure of mutual cancellation, resulting in a world-shaking explosion!
An Energy Annihilation Sphere with a diameter of over a hundred meters suddenly expanded in mid-air!
On the sphere's surface, blue-purple-black thunder snakes and golden holy flames intertwined, tore, and annihilated each other frantically, bursting with destructive waves capable of instantly destroying several ordinary Titled Douluo!
With the explosion as the center, visible spatial ripples spread violently in all directions like a lake into which a giant stone had been thrown.
Wherever they passed, clouds were completely torn apart and evaporated, light was distorted, and even sound was swallowed, presenting a scene of eerie silence and visual distortion. The vast Sunset Forest below suffered even more; towering ancient trees were turned to dust in swaths, the earth was plowed into deep gullies, and smoke and dust soared into the sky as if the apocalypse had arrived.
This energy frenzy continued for several breaths before it finally began to slowly subside and dissipate.
After a moment, the sky was revealed once again, but it was already in shambles.
Tang Chuan stood suspended in his original position, a faint blue halo surrounding him to isolate the residual ripples of the violent energy. His clothes fluttered slightly as he gazed coldly toward the direction where Qian Daoliu had been, which was now completely empty.
Qian Daoliu's figure, along with his aura, had vanished without a trace.
Evidently, at the moment of the explosion just now, this invincible super Douluo of the sky had already relied on his extraordinary understanding and control of space to quietly escape and catch up with Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others.
"Ran away again?"
Frowning slightly, a cold light flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes. His body moved slightly as he prepared to use his methods to once again lock onto the direction the Spirit Hall members had fled and continue the pursuit.
However, at the very instant his Soul Power was about to gush out, a faint golden vertical mark appeared without warning beneath the skin of his brow!
Immediately after, the vertical mark opened slightly, and a closed golden vertical eye slowly opened!
Following that, a mysterious, vast as a sea of stars, yet elusive and immense Power of Destiny surged out from that vertical mark like a silent tide, instantly sweeping through Tang Chuan's entire body and even penetrating deep into his spiritual sea!
This was not an active investigation, but rather a premonition from the unknown.
Fragments of blurred images, yet carrying strong emotional colors, flashed through his mind like lightning. He saw Yang Wudi covered in blood, his eight Soul Rings dimmed to the extreme. He stood tall with his spear, facing the destructive pressure emanating from the Clear Sky Hammer Avatar before him. His back was resolute and tragic, his life force like a candle in the wind, liable to be extinguished at any moment... a thin line between life and death!
Dugu Bo and Niu Gao were also surrounded by several powerful auras no weaker than their own. At this moment, they were in a dilemma, and the situation was extremely critical.
"Clear Sky Sect... how dare you!"

"To think you dare to strike at the people of my Soul Hall while I am away, you are simply seeking death!"
Before his voice had even faded, his entire being transformed into a deep blue streamer of light, even faster than during his previous pursuit. He pushed his speed to the limit, no longer paying any mind to the remnants of the Spirit Hall, and instead shot back toward the direction of Heaven Dou City!
The streamer of light cut through the sky.
Leaving behind a long-lasting frost trail and a piercing sonic boom... Above the ruins of the Heaven Dou City imperial palace, that earth-shaking energy tide finally began to slowly subside.
The sky-obscuring dust and Soul Power turbulence were pushed aside as if by an invisible giant hand, revealing the scene at the center of the battlefield.
The Seventh Elder's towering and terrifying Flaming Clear Sky Hammer Avatar had already vanished. In its place, he himself lay miserably in a charred and cracked deep pit.
At this moment, the Seventh Elder's grey robe was tattered, his beard and hair were scorched and curled, his face was as pale as paper, and blood with a scorched scent continually seeped from the corners of his mouth. His chest heaved violently, his aura was withered to the extreme, and he seemed to lack even the strength to struggle into a sitting position.
That Clear Sky Hammer, which had once burned with raging flames, lay tilted to the side. The light on the hammer was very dim, and there were even several fine cracks visible on it.
And at the edge of the deep pit.
A figure, though swaying, still stood tall like a spear; it was Yang Wudi.
He was covered in blood, his robes were shredded, and his right arm holding the spear trembled slightly. The web of his thumb had long since split open, and blood wound its way down the spear shaft. His face was terrifyingly pale; clearly, that life-risking strike just now had drained almost all of his Soul Power and essence. He was now at the end of his tether.
But he was still standing. The Soul Breaking Spear in his hand still pointed at the Seventh Elder in the pit. Though it trembled, it never lowered.
Victory and defeat had clearly been decided.
After a brief, deathly silence, Yang Wudi's lips curled, and he let out a hoarse but extremely hearty laugh. His laughter was filled with the pleasure of revenge and endless mockery as he said:
"Haha... cough cough... Hahaha! Old fool! You lost! A dignified Elder of the Clear Sky Sect, a Titled Douluo of high status, defeated by the spear of a Soul Douluo like me, who committed this insubordination! Where is our bet? Why haven't you quickly ended your own life to wash away the arrogance of your Clear Sky Sect with your blood?!"
This laughter, this questioning.
Like a cold whip, it lashed fiercely across the face of every Clear Sky Sect Elder.
The Seventh Elder in the pit trembled with rage upon hearing this, spitting out another mouthful of blood. He glared at Yang Wudi with bloodshot eyes, but he couldn't even utter a complete sentence, filled only with boundless humiliation.
"Presumptuous!"
"Yang Wudi! You are seeking death!"
Almost at the same moment Yang Wudi's voice fell, several shouts filled with fury exploded!
The remaining four Elders of the Clear Sky Sect, who had long been prepared and had exchanged countless looks, no longer showed any face or restraint and moved simultaneously!
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Four figures suddenly flickered like Gui Mei, their terrifying Titled Douluo-level speed erupting as they instantly surrounded the exhausted Yang Wudi from four directions, trapping him firmly in the center!
Immediately after, an unrivaled Soul Power pressure, like four great mountains, crashed down toward the center, completely sealing off all space where Yang Wudi might dodge or break through!
Having just experienced a life-and-death battle, with his Soul Power nearly exhausted and his body on the brink of collapse, Yang Wudi's body swayed violently under the joint suppression of these four Titled Douluo in their peak states. He nearly fell, only managing to barely support himself by leaning heavily on his Soul Breaking Spear against the ground.
His expression became even grimmer, but the unyielding defiance and hatred in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
The leading Second Elder of the Clear Sky Sect had a face as dark as water, the Killing Intent in his eyes almost solidifying. He stared fixedly at the swaying Yang Wudi in the center and said coldly:
"Yang Wudi! You were nothing more than a former vassal of my Clear Sky Sect. Having luckily obtained some Legacy, you dare to be so arrogant and insubordinate, first heavily wounding the Sect Master and then using sinister tricks to plot against the Seventh Elder, forcing him into a perilous situation! How is such behavior any different from betraying the sect and murdering your lord?!"
"A bet? Hmph! With an ungrateful and black-hearted person like you, what talk of honor or trust can there be?! Today, this old man shall, in the name of a Clear Sky Sect Elder, clean out the house and execute you, a rebel, on the spot as a warning to others!"
Hearing this, the other three Elders also stepped forward in unison, their Soul Rings faintly appearing as their Clear Sky Hammers manifested. Their terrifying Killing Intent firmly locked onto Yang Wudi; clearly, they were about to strike simultaneously in the next moment to completely crush this traitor who had damaged the Clear Sky Sect's reputation with thunderous force.
They did not give him any chance to fulfill the bet or argue!
The situation instantly shifted from a one-on-one duel to blatant bullying of the weak and a broken promise to surround and kill him!
"People of the Clear Sky Sect! Do you have no shame?!" Seeing this, Niu Gao roared, and his Armored Giant Rhino Avatar erupted as he charged forward recklessly.
At the same time, Dugu Bo's emerald pupils contracted to the size of pinpricks, and the invisible layer of emerald poison mist around him surged violently as he mocked:
"What a 'cleaning out the house'... What an 'execution on the spot'... Clear Sky Sect, you are indeed a bunch of despicable cowards who cannot afford to lose!"
"Today, this old man shall see who among you dares to touch a single hair of my Soul Hall's people!"
