164: Chapter 164 Overcoming with Force, Qian Xunji: Why Should I Meet You Head-on?

Tang Zhen and the Five Elders watched the Clear Sky Sect Disciples dying miserably below.

They were filled with fury at this action by Spirit Hall.

Among them, the Second Elder of the Clear Sky Sect spoke first:

"Qian Xunji, are you trying to incite a war in the Spirit Master's world?"

He was furious, the anger in his eyes ready to erupt.

Hearing the Second Elder's words, Qian Xunji sneered and retorted:

"Incite a war? Old thing, you think too highly of your Clear Sky Sect."

"Today is the day your Clear Sky Sect will be annihilated!"

After speaking, Qian Xunji stopped wasting words. Behind him, the Seraphim Avatar manifested, radiating a dazzling golden light that seemed capable of purging the world's evil.

"You go too far!"

The Second Elder roared, gripping his tens-of-meters-tall Clear Sky Avatar.

Seeing the Second Elder's actions, the other four Elders also summoned their own Clear Sky Avatars, preparing to fight Qian Xunji.

But at this moment.

Tang Zhen stood before the Clear Sky Sect Elders and reached out to stop them.

These Clear Sky Sect Elders were blinded by rage.

But he, Tang Zhen, was not.

If it were only Qian Xunji, the Clear Sky Sect might still have the strength to fight.

But standing beside him was that mountain of the Spirit Master's world, Atlas Douluo Yun Yuan.

Once a fight broke out, the Clear Sky Sect would surely be annihilated today.

He looked up at Yun Yuan; although there was anger in his eyes, there was more fear.

"Atlas Douluo, can you spare the Clear Sky Sect? My Clear Sky Sect is willing to compensate for everything."

"Spirit Bones, Cultivate resources, wealth—whatever you want, we will pay!"

Seeing that the Sect Master Tang Zhen was afraid before the fight, wanting the Clear Sky Sect to kneel to Spirit Hall, the Second Elder behind him felt ashamed and indignant.

"Tang Zhen, what are you doing?!"

"If Spirit Hall wants to fight, my Clear Sky Sect will fight. At worst, we die."

"You groveling here is simply shaming my Clear Sky Sect; you are not fit to be our Sect Master."

Hearing this, Tang Zhen looked back and glared at the Second Elder:

"Old fool, shut your mouth. If you want to die, you can go bang your head against a wall, but did you ask the rest of our Clear Sky Sect Disciples?"

Immediately after.

Tang Zhen turned his gaze back to Yun Yuan, his face full of pleading.

However, at this moment, Qian Xunji spoke, looking at Tang Zhen with interest, offering him a path to survival.

"Tang Zhen, you want the Clear Sky Sect to survive? Fine."

"Back in the day, your father and my father were evenly matched, collectively known as the two peaks of the Spirit Master's world."

"Let the two of us have a duel. If you win, I will spare your Clear Sky Sect today."

"But if you, Tang Zhen, lose, the Clear Sky Sect will be annihilated right here."

After hearing Qian Xunji's words, Tang Zhen turned his gaze to Qian Xunji.

"Pope Qian, is that true?"

"This Supreme Pontiff never breaks his word."

Seeing hope for the Clear Sky Sect's survival, Tang Zhen released his nine spirit rings, and his Clear Sky Avatar appeared above him.

"Pope Qian, come and fight."

Immediately after, above the Clear Sky Sect.

The Clear Sky Avatar and the Angel True Body stood opposite each other.

The duel between Tang Chen and Qian Daoliu of the past was now transferred to Tang Zhen and Qian Xunji.

"Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Nine Absolutes in One!"

As soon as Tang Zhen started, he went all out, using the strongest Move outside of the Great Sumeru Hammer.

Nine Absolutes in One condensed the nine types of force of the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes onto the Clear Sky Hammer, thereby gaining extremely high explosive power and attack power.

Facing this strike, Qian Xunji did not choose to resist head-on; instead, he used the mobility of the Seraphim to dodge this Nine Absolutes in One.

Did he really think he was a fool like his father, Qian Daoliu?

One was a Clear Sky Hammer with pure, formidable attack power; the other was a Seraphim with balanced attributes.

Why should I let my Seraphim clash head-on with your Clear Sky Hammer?

The all-out Nine Absolutes in One did not hit Qian Xunji, and Tang Zhen felt a bit anxious inside.

What is this Qian Xunji doing? Why won't he take my Clear Sky Hammer?

But soon he had no time to think.

As he dissipated his force, Qian Xunji's Seraphim Avatar condensed a golden giant sword tens of meters long.

That angel greatsword slashed toward him.

Tang Zhen was quick-witted; he twisted his wrist and hurriedly changed the direction of his Clear Sky Avatar to block this incoming strike from Qian Xunji.

Although Tang Zhen had reacted in time.

But his Soul Power Rank was inferior to Qian Xunji's, and his Spirit's defensive ability was not very strong. Plus, having to change the direction of the Clear Sky Avatar meant he couldn't concentrate all his power.

Soon, Tang Zhen felt a huge force coming from the Clear Sky Avatar.

His palms were shaken until they were bleeding, and his body, along with the Clear Sky Avatar, was sent flying directly.

It was only after flying several hundred meters that Tang Zhen stabilized his body.

At this moment, he looked up at Qian Xunji:

"Pope Qian, what is the meaning of this? Why won't you take my Clear Sky Avatar?"

Facing Tang Zhen's questioning, Qian Xunji snorted coldly and retorted:

"Why should I take your Clear Sky Avatar?"

"If you don't take my Clear Sky Avatar, how can it be considered a duel? That is how my father Tang Chen and your father Qian Daoliu fought in the past."

Tang Zhen responded righteously.

In his memory, that was how Tang Chen had taught him.

When encountering a Seraphim Spirit possessor, overcome them with strength!

Tang Zhen had firmly kept this sentence in his heart.

But today, he hadn't expected Qian Xunji to avoid the fight.

How was he supposed to overcome him with strength using the Clear Sky Hammer?

"Spirit abilities have their strengths and weaknesses. In the past, my father used his short-comings to attack their strengths, but this time, I, Qian Xunji, will absolutely not make such a mistake."

"My Seraphim Spirit is not inherently good at raw strength, so why should I clash head-on with your Clear Sky Hammer, which is only good at strength? That would be the true unfairness."

"The current combat mode is the true combat mode of the Seraphim."

After speaking, Qian Xunji stopped wasting words, swinging that tens-of-meters-long angel greatsword, slashing down at Tang Zhen one sword after another.

Tang Zhen, who was already struggling, was suddenly subjected to Qian Xunji's fierce attack.

Not long after, he was severely injured by Qian Xunji.

"No, I still carry the lives of all the members of the Clear Sky Sect. I absolutely cannot lose."

Feeling the increasingly heavy injuries on his body, Tang Zhen could not worry about anything else.

He immediately used the Clear Sky Sect's final trump card—

Ring Explosion!

He was the first to explode his first seven spirit rings; the Soul Power fluctuations around him rose to another level, and his own Aura became even more terrifying.

He swung the Clear Sky Hammer faster and harder, the fierce offensive making Qian Xunji feel slight pressure.

"Still not enough? Then explode them all!"

Seeing that Qian Xunji could still parry him, Tang Zhen was nearly crazed inside.

He had to defeat Qian Xunji so he could save the Clear Sky Sect from fire and water.

Soon, the last two spirit rings on Tang Zhen's body exploded, his own Aura rising once again, faintly surpassing his opponent, Qian Xunji.

The powerful amplification of Ring Explosion was displayed to the fullest at this moment.

But a battle is never about the strength of one's Aura.

Tang Zhen's Clear Sky Avatar, even after all nine rings exploded, still could not deal a heavy blow to Qian Xunji.

Under constant attrition, Tang Zhen's state turned from peak to decline, which Qian Xunji noticed immediately.

"It is time! It is time to finish you off!"
