"Attack the mountain!"
At the foot of the mountain, Gold Crocodile Douluo looked at the empty village with indifference, then raised his head to gaze at the towering cliff. His eyes seemed to pierce through layers of obstruction, meeting Tang Xiao's gaze on the cliff above.
And with Gold Crocodile Douluo's command, the vast flying Spirit Masters immediately sped towards the Clear Sky Sect.
On the ground, the remaining Spirit Masters who couldn't fly also used their various methods, leaping over ravines to surround the Clear Sky Sect.
"Spirit Hall brats, if you want to destroy my Clear Sky Sect, be prepared to leave your lives behind." A furious roar came from within the Clear Sky Sect. The Seventh Elder was seen holding a Clear Sky Hammer surrounded by nine spirit rings, smashing it towards the Spirit Hall members below.
"Titled Douluo!"
"Tang Lie, after more than ten years, you've actually entered the Titled Douluo realm." Gold Crocodile Douluo's eyes flashed with surprise as he observed the strength displayed by Clear Sky Sect's Seventh Elder, Tang Lie.
As a senior figure in the Spirit Master's world, he knew all the disciples of this generation in the Clear Sky Sect. When the Clear Sky Sect was known as the number one sect in the world, only Tang Chen and his son were in the Titled Douluo realm. He hadn't expected the current Clear Sky Sect to have gained another Titled Douluo.
As he spoke, Gold Crocodile Douluo threw a punch, and a powerful spirit power instantly formed a sharp energy blast, striking directly at the Seventh Elder.
The terrifying energy fluctuation made the Seventh Elder's hair stand on end. He had overestimated himself and underestimated the power of a ninety-eighth-level Titled Douluo. He hadn't expected that Gold Crocodile Douluo's casual strike alone would be enough to put him in danger.
"Hmph, Sky-Shattering Strike."
The Seventh Elder roared, and his third and fifth spirit rings suddenly glowed. A layer of black light enveloped his entire body, causing his muscles to rapidly swell. Even the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand grew enormous as he smashed it downwards.
"Boom!!!"
To the shock of countless people, Gold Crocodile Douluo's casual strike directly shattered the Seventh Elder's two Spirit Abilitys. His body was also sent flying backwards by the immense force, spitting out blood.
"Old Seven!"
Several shouts rang out as the remaining four Elders of the Clear Sky Sect all flew out, catching the retreating Seventh Elder, and vigilantly watching Gold Crocodile Douluo below.
They hadn't expected such a vast difference in strength between themselves and Gold Crocodile Douluo.
"Heh." Looking at the four Titled Douluo who had flown up, Gold Crocodile Douluo couldn't help but sneer, then glanced at Tang Xiao, who stood quietly not far away. "Six Titled Douluo..."
"Good, good, what a Clear Sky Sect. I didn't expect that sparing you all back then would eventually lead to raising a tiger that would cause trouble."
Around Gold Crocodile Douluo, the Spirit Hall powerhouses were all breaking out in cold sweat. No one had expected that the Clear Sky Sect had quietly gained six Titled Douluo. If Tang Hao, who was currently outside, was added, wouldn't that mean the Clear Sky Sect alone had seven Titled Douluo?
"Hiss!"
As expected of the number one sect in the world back then, their strength was truly terrifying. Even after years of sealing off and retreating, with such power, they could easily overpower the remaining six of the seven great sects in the Spirit Master's world.
In the distance, Yu Yuanzhen, Ning Fengzhi, and Prince Xue Qinghe, who had just arrived from the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, also witnessed this scene.
"What a Clear Sky Sect, to actually have six Titled Douluo. Truly worthy of being the number one sect in the world. From what I see, they probably don't even need us to repel this Spirit Hall attack." Yu Yuanzhen's expression was unreadable, and he spoke with a lingering tone. He thought of his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and the Clear Sky Sect, both being the top of the world's number one beast Spirit and tool Spirit respectively.
Now, comparing the two, his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's title as the number one beast Spirit seemed somewhat undeserved. Yu Yuanzhen's eyes involuntarily darkened.
Beside him, Ning Fengzhi also found the phrase 'number one sect in the world' a bit grating.
He had once believed that after the Clear Sky Sect retreated, their strength would be greatly diminished, if not completely collapse, and the title of the number one sect in the world would fall to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The Spirit Master's world had also believed this in recent years.
However, today's outcome was a harsh slap in the face, telling him to stop his fantasies.
Ning Fengzhi gazed deeply at the six figures in the sky, no one knew what he was thinking, but the hand gripping his sect master's scepter tightened slightly, indicating the turmoil in his heart.
"The stronger the Clear Sky Sect, the stronger they are against Spirit Hall. We should be fortunate." Qian Renxue looked at Yu Yuanzhen and Ning Fengzhi with a playful glint in her eyes, yet spoke with a smile.
The Upper Three Sects united as one? Even dogs wouldn't believe it. Without Spirit Hall pressing down on them, they would fight each other to death.
Yu Yuanzhen and Ning Fengzhi neither wanted the Clear Sky Sect to be destroyed by Spirit Hall nor did they want such a powerful Clear Sky Sect. The strength the Clear Sky Sect had revealed this time had already exceeded everyone's expectations.
What will you do next?
"Qinghe is right. Our enemy now is Spirit Hall. The stronger the Clear Sky Sect, the more fortunate we should feel. Sect Master Yu, with these six Titled Douluo, Spirit Hall's campaign this time can be considered a failure." Ning Fengzhi was incredibly shrewd and quickly adjusted his mood, smiling gently at Yu Yuanzhen and Qian Renxue.
"Prepare to act." Yu Yuanzhen gave Ning Fengzhi a stern look and said coldly.
"Spirit Hall invading my Clear Sky Sect, are you going back on your original promise?" After confirming that the Seventh Elder was not in serious danger, the Second Elder looked at Gold Crocodile Douluo and said in a deep voice.
"Why ask the obvious? If you hand over Tang Hao today, we will retreat. If you cannot, the Clear Sky Sect will be buried in this ancestral land." Gold Crocodile Douluo said with cold eyes. Although he didn't possess the Slaughter God Domain, the pressure brought by his ninety-eighth-level spirit power was in no way weaker than the Slaughter God Domain.
"Aren't you afraid of the Old Sect Master returning to settle accounts with you?" The Fourth Elder glared at Gold Crocodile Douluo through gritted teeth.
Indeed, upon hearing Tang Chen's name, Gold Crocodile Douluo and Cyan Luan Douluo's eyes flashed. If not for their apprehension of this unrivaled master of the land, the Clear Sky Sect would have ceased to exist long ago.
"Enough nonsense. If Tang Chen were still alive, he would have appeared last time. Why wait until today?"
Hearing Gold Crocodile Douluo's words, the Clear Sky Sect members suddenly choked, feeling their hopes shatter.
"If that's the case, then only a fight to the death remains."
"Elders, lead the Clear Sky Sect disciples to break through. I will hold off Golden Alligator and Qingluan."
"Clear Sky True Body!"
Tang Xiao looked at Gold Crocodile Douluo and finally let out a long roar. The next second, with a soft 'boom', the ground beneath his feet directly crumbled and disappeared, revealing a large hole.
Such terrifying destruction caused with ease was enough to demonstrate his profound and terrifying cultivation.
A dark golden light suddenly shot into the sky. Tang Xiao's seventh spirit ring instantly bloomed. Also a Martial Soul True Body, his Clear Sky True Body was even stronger and fiercer than Tang Hao's.
"Ninety-seventh level!"
Feeling Tang Xiao's cultivation level again, Gold Crocodile Douluo felt that he hadn't been this surprised in almost a century.
"But you're still too green to stop me. Let Tang Chen come." Gold Crocodile Douluo's eyes shone brightly as his Golden Alligator King Spirit possessed him.
His entire body was covered in a layer of fine golden scales, his white hair instantly turned into thick keratin, his hands transformed into sharp claws, and a huge, long tail covered in scales and spikes dragged behind him.
Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red, nine spirit rings pulsed rhythmically beneath his feet. The phantom of the Golden Alligator King Spirit behind him let out a roar that seemed to come from ancient times, and a fierce aura surged forth.
