Chapter 742 3 vs 1, ganging up on Tang Hao
Chapter 742 Three Against One, Ganging Up on Tang Hao
"Damn it! There's another Title Douluo here? No wonder Chrysanthemum Pass was so confident in letting me charge over here; he was waiting for me here all along. I almost fell for his trick."
Tang Hao didn't recognize the octogenarian in front of him, but that didn't stop him from understanding the opponent's strength from that brief exchange.
The aura emanating from the other party made him feel a sense of danger, clearly indicating that he was not an ordinary Title Douluo.
Thinking of this, Tang Hao's expression darkened. Flying in mid-air, he pointed his Clear Sky Hammer at the old man opposite him and questioned him in a deep voice:
"Who exactly are you? Most Title Douluos have names and surnames, but I've never seen a Title Douluo like you before. Where did you come from?"
Faced with Tang Hao's questioning, Serpent Spear Douluo remained silent and ignored him.
Yes, the person in front of him was She Long, the Serpent Spear Douluo, who was the titled Douluo bodyguard that Ye Qifeng had borrowed from Qian Renxue.
—She Long, titled Serpent Spear, is an elder of the Spirit Hall and one of Qian Renxue's two titled Douluo guards. The cyan-purple serpent spear in his hand is his spirit.
She Long's identity was sensitive and could not be known to outsiders, so he did not answer Tang Hao's question.
He became a Title Douluo relatively late, just when Qian Renxue was sent by Bibi Dong to Tian Dou City to carry out her plan to seize the country. As a result, he was put on hold by the Spirit Hall and sent to Qian Renxue's side to work as an assistant and protect her safety.
Because the title was not publicly announced, She Long's reputation was not widespread, and few people knew about him. It was understandable that Tang Hao did not know of his existence.
She Long remained silent, but Tang Hao had no choice but to be on high alert.
Directly opposite, She Long's slender figure stood straight and sharp like a javelin. After releasing his martial spirit, his body did not undergo any special changes, but the serpent spear in his hand was releasing a captivating cyan-purple divine light that made people's scalps tingle.
The fact that Serpent Spear Douluo dared to face Tang Hao in this way naturally showed that he had the strength to do so.
Now he is also a level 95 Super Douluo, whose cultivation is on par with Tang Hao's, so he is naturally not afraid of him.
A cold light flashed in She Long's eyes, and his powerful martial soul, the Serpent Spear, which was as strong as a dragon vein, exuded a chill in the air.
Regardless of what Tang Hao thought, She Long had already taken action.
With a sharp shout, the serpent spear in his hand seemed to come alive, soaring into the air and transforming into a giant silver serpent, baring its fangs and claws as it pounced on Tang Hao.
The titled Douluo left a long trail of afterimages behind him, giving people a sense of illusion and unpredictability, as if only the serpent spear had pounced out, and there was no one else.
That was no longer a simple union of man and spear, but a true fusion. No need to do anything deliberately; the spear and the body had already achieved a terrifying degree of compatibility.
The terrifying aspect of a Title Douluo, a Soul Weapon Master, lies in this: they are often more terrifying than Title Douluos, Beast Soul Masters.
The fusion of the spear and the human body greatly increased Shelong's strength. Every swing of the spear brought up a gust of wind, agile and fierce, and every attack was filled with a deadly threat.
"As expected, they are lackeys of the Spirit Hall!"
Seeing that She Long attacked him without saying a word, Tang Hao's expression turned serious. He snorted coldly and cursed without any politeness.
However, despite being furious at She Long's fierce attack, Tang Hao remained extremely calm and his movements were swift.
With a burst of divine light in his eyes, Haotian Jiujue's ultimate technique was unleashed once again. The enormous hammerhead, like thunder and lightning from the heavens, descended from the sky and collided with the serpent spear, producing a deafening roar. The two forces collided in the air, bursting out with dazzling sparks.
With a single strike, immense power converged at the hammerhead, seemingly capable of shaking heaven and earth, revealing the unmistakable might of the heavens.
Just then, Tang Hao noticed out of the corner of his eye that a giant, emerald-green snake suddenly lunged out from the shadows, its gaping maw brimming with venom, and lunged at him.
Tang Hao's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly abandoned his fight with the Serpent Spear Douluo, retreating as he did so.
The unexpected attack nearly caused Tang Hao serious injury, but he managed to dodge the fatal blow thanks to his profound soul power. Unfortunately, the venom of the giant green snake still grazed his body.
With a soft "poof," Tang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning slightly green.
Seeing that his body was covered in a bright green poison that was eroding his flesh and blood with a sizzling sound, he quickly activated his soul power to expel it and get rid of it.
Only after doing all this did he have a chance to look up at the enemy who had ambushed him.
At first glance, all you can see is lush greenery.
The giant, emerald-green snake that had ambushed him had now moved from the left to the right and was hovering in mid-air.
"The Azure Phosphorous Serpent King?!"
Tang Hao was taken aback at first, then his expression became even more unpleasant, clearly recognizing what had just attacked him.
That giant emerald green snake was none other than the Azure Phosphorous Serpent King.
As for whose martial soul the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor is, there's no need to elaborate.
"Hahaha, Tang Hao, how does my Jade Phosphorus Snake Venom taste?"
A cold, hoarse voice rang out in the air, and a figure covered in green suddenly appeared on the head of the giant emerald green venomous snake. It was none other than Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo was tall and slender, resembling a javelin, with dark green beard and hair, and his eyes sparkled like emeralds.
The person gives off an ethereal feeling, as if they were a phantom.
Dugu Bo's face looked somewhat stiff, his cheeks were sunken, his green hair was messy, and he was dressed in a simple green robe.
But at this moment, he was all smiles, and the words he spoke were full of sarcasm.
Tang Hao's face darkened, and he demanded:
"Dugu Bo, what do you mean?"
"Do you also intend to aid and abet evil, colluding with the Spirit Hall and becoming my enemy?!"
Dugu Bo sneered:
"What do you mean by aiding and abetting evil, colluding with the wicked? You make it sound like the Spirit Hall is some kind of evil force. Only a despicable person like you would think that way."
"And what if I'm your enemy? I'd rather be. Don't think too highly of yourself."
As Dugu Bo spoke, he stared coldly at Tang Hao:
"I haven't settled the score with you for causing trouble at my herb garden with that guy Chen Xin last time. You haven't forgotten, have you?"
Compared to Dugu Bo's beaming smile, Tang Hao's expression was much uglier, and his heart sank completely.
It seems that Dugu Bo is determined to collude with the Spirit Hall and make things difficult for himself.
Unexpectedly, besides that stinky chrysanthemum Yue Guan, there were two other Title Douluos hiding in the shadows, and that old bastard Dugu Bo was also there.
Dugu Bo is already a level 96 Super Douluo, and his soul power is one level higher than mine. Although his personal combat strength is not strong, his Jade Phosphorous Serpent Venom is very troublesome. If we fight a protracted battle, I will definitely suffer a great loss.
Moreover, with Yue Guan and that unknown Title Douluo, the situation was even more unfavorable.
The Spirit Hall is indeed cunning; they actually sent three Title Douluos to deal with me, and all of them are Super Douluos above level 95. They really think highly of me.
That being said, why would these three people gather here? Is it necessary to arrange for three Super Douluo to protect a mere Holy Son of the Spirit Hall and a group of young, talented Soul Masters?
It feels like they're setting a trap for me, just waiting for me to fall into it.
At this moment, Tang Hao seemed to have figured something out, but his eyes became even more somber, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on the Clear Sky Hammer.
However, Tang Hao had no time to think further, as Dugu Bo launched another attack.
Under his precise control, the Azure Phosphorus Serpent King unleashed a venomous gas attack on Tang Hao.
Tang Hao sidestepped to avoid it and launched a counterattack in an instant, his Clear Sky Hammer tearing at the ground like a mad tiger.
Dugu Bo was not to be outdone, and the poisonous gas of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King surged forth, posing a considerable threat to Tang Hao.
On the other side, Serpent Spear Douluo She Long also seized the opportunity and launched an attack in coordination with Dugu Bo. The sound of the serpent spear cutting through the air rang out continuously in order to capture Tang Hao.
Tang Hao, who had fallen into She Long's trap, did not panic. At the critical moment, he leaped up and attacked Dugu Bo again.
Dugu Bo was not intimidated at all. While the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King nimbly dodged, it countered Tang Hao, and the chilling poison gas almost hit Tang Hao several times.
The scene was extremely dangerous, with the soul rings and soul skills of the three Super Douluo intertwined, and deadly attacks arriving at each opponent from different angles.
In this tense battle, however, they managed to turn danger into safety and eventually reached a stalemate.
Just then, a familiar, soft, feminine voice suddenly rang out from behind Tang Hao.
"Chrysanthemums wither, leaving only sorrow on the ground; fallen petals break one's heart!"
The one who made the move was none other than Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, who had rushed over.
Seeing that Tang Hao was being stopped by the combined forces of Serpent Spear Douluo She Long and Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, Yue Guanxin relaxed and immediately launched an attack, using her strongest skill, her ninth soul skill, right off the bat.
The enormous Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum disintegrated once more, transforming into countless chrysanthemum blades that resembled ghostly apparitions under the moonlight, cold and deadly.
Each petal was a blade, drawing strange trajectories in the air as it fiercely attacked Tang Hao, each strike containing deadly power.
She Long and Dugu Bo did not stand idly by either, and made their moves almost simultaneously.
She Long's figure suddenly disappeared, merging into the purplish-blue serpent spear in his hand—the highest secret technique mastered by a Title Douluo, a weapon spirit master: man and spear as one.
As soon as the spear was thrust out, sand and stones flew, wind and thunder suddenly changed, and it charged forward without hesitation, swiftly piercing Tang Hao.
Dugu Bo was not slow either. His body became completely transparent, and his Martial Soul True Body materialized, instantly transforming into a 50-meter-long, water-jar-thick, emerald-green snake.
After reaching the Title Douluo level, the Martial Soul True Body undergoes a qualitative change. Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor True Body is already close to the level of a giant dragon.
As the eighth and ninth black ten-thousand-year soul rings on his body suddenly shone brightly, a terrifyingly corrosive and poisonous light was released from the mouth of the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor's true form.
This is Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill—Time Freeze. When combined with his ninth soul skill, it can easily destroy a city.
This soul skill requires a huge amount of soul power, but its power is enough to completely lock time within an area of several thousand square meters.
At this moment, Tang Hao was instantly locked on and unable to move, seemingly only able to watch helplessly as the three attacks rushed towards him.
Yue Guan, She Long, and Dugu Bo joined forces to surround Tang Hao, and their three terrifying soul skills blocked all of Tang Hao's escape routes, leaving him no room to maneuver, seemingly aiming to take his life.
Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill, Time Freeze, was the first to take effect, completely freezing everything around Tang Hao. Tang Hao's body flew in the air without moving, but his mind was not affected.
"Damn it! I can't move."
Tang Hao roared inwardly and struggled violently, but to no avail.
Dugu Bo's eighth soul skill imprisons time in the entire area, not his body, but he is trapped within it and cannot break free.
"There's no other way, I have to escape, otherwise I'm very likely to be captured by these three."
A resolute glint flashed in Tang Hao's eyes. He knew there was no way to retreat now. With three Super Douluo joining forces, he was no match for them alone, and retrieving Ah Yin's soul bone was now a pipe dream.
Since that's the case, we might as well get away quickly and escape from this place.
"Killing God Domain! Ring Explosion!"
With his mind made up, Tang Hao gritted his teeth and used the domain skill he had obtained after becoming the God of Slaughter in the City of Slaughter—the God of Slaughter Domain, as well as the Haotian Sect's strongest ultimate technique—the Great Sumeru Hammer Ring Explosion Technique.
A blood-red halo emanated from Tang Hao, and an invisible pressure spread outwards, instantly enveloping the surrounding area.
It is the Killing God Domain that enhances one's aura, weakens the enemy, and increases one's own strength by 20%.
At the same time, the nine spirit rings on Tang Hao's body exploded simultaneously, making his aura even more terrifying.
He suddenly raised his head, his eyes turning bloodshot, and his aura surged to its peak. A chilling and terrifying soul force, like that of a demon in hell, swept out, shattering the frozen time around him.
"Great Sumeru Hammer, a Sky-Piercing Strike!"
The moment his mobility was restored, Tang Hao immediately activated his strongest move, injecting all his soul power into his martial soul. The Clear Sky Hammer suddenly grew to over a hundred meters tall, held in the hand of the Clear Sky True Body, and fiercely smashed towards the attacks of Yue Guan, She Long, and Dugu Bo.
With a single blow, the heavens and earth trembled.
The space around Tang Hao seemed to be distorted, and an invisible pressure spread outward. The Great Sumeru Hammer Ring Explosion Technique was terrifyingly powerful, and it shattered the attacks of Yue Guan, She Long, and Dugu Bo with overwhelming force. The three were pushed back by the powerful force and looked a little disheveled.
Tang Hao's attack was too fast. All his actions were completed in an instant, which was beyond the expectations of Yue Guan, She Long, and Dugu Bo. Before they could even see clearly, all of their soul skill attacks were broken, and they themselves suffered a certain backlash.
But it's clear that Tang Hao is in a much worse state.
Although She Long, Dugu Bo, and Yue Guan were defeated, their combined attack left Tang Hao with indelible damage.
Of course, the main reason was the severe backlash from the Great Sumeru Hammer Ring-Exploding Mystic Technique, which triggered the eruption of his long-standing hidden injuries.
"You lackeys of the Spirit Hall, just you wait, you'll pay for this in the future!"
After defeating Yue Guan, She Long, and Dugu Bo with a single blow, Tang Hao flashed away, using the remaining power of the Exploding Ring Technique to break free from their encirclement. He then quickly escaped, leaving behind only a hateful remark echoing in the air.
