Chapter 216 Ends and the Divine Soul Ring
A glint of fire flashed in Ding Quan's golden eyes; this exploding ring skill was indeed a life-or-death technique.
Forcibly shattering a spirit ring can cause immense damage to a spirit master. If a spirit master's physical strength is weak, the energy released from the shattering of the spirit ring can render them unable to fight.
Although Tang San's momentum had greatly increased, Ding Quan could clearly see that his body was already damaged. Once he released this power, his physical discomfort would become apparent, and this skill would definitely be difficult to maintain.
Ding Quan glanced at Tang Hao, who had a look of satisfaction on his face, without using any soul skills. It seemed that he was very satisfied that Tang San was able to use the Clear Sky Sect's strongest technique.
Indeed, those who can wield this ultimate skill are basically the new generation of Haotian Douluo. This ultimate skill is one that even the previous Haotian Sect Master, Tang Hao's father, did not master.
As for the current sect leader of Haofu Sect, Tang Xiao also did not have a grasp on him.
However, it's still a bit of wishful thinking to think that you can defeat Ling at this point by relying on the Ring Explosion skill.
The Great Sumeru Hammer unleashed by the Haotian Sect's Ring Explosion technique is indeed powerful, significantly increasing Tang San's strength. However, Ling, now a level 95 Super Douluo, has never shown his full power.
With his Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores, Ling's true strength was now close to level 99. In addition, he possessed extremely high-quality soul bones, including several soul bones from ferocious beasts. His abilities were in no way inferior to Tang San's use of the exploding ring technique.
Sure enough, an even more powerful aura emanated from Ling, and under its influence, the entire area instantly turned into a frozen wasteland.
Tang San looked at the ice blade storm, which was several times larger than before. The confidence he had just gained from using the Exploding Ring was immediately suppressed, and a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes.
Using soul power like this, isn't the opponent really worried about not having enough soul power?
Such immense soul power, even if one were to unleash it at full power, could only sustain for a short while, while the opponent was completely unconcerned.
More importantly, faced with this even more powerful ice blade storm, Tang San's attack was forced to stop, and he could only defend first, knowing that these ice blades could explode.
"She really hadn't used her full strength!"
Tang Hao knew that Ling had not unleashed his full power, but he did not expect that the other party had hidden it so deeply.
Looking at the Haotian Hammer, which had turned red, this was the Great Sumeru Hammer of the Haotian Sect. However, such a powerful technique could only be used to parry. Faced with the continuous storm of ice blades, it was difficult to even retaliate.
"This is the ultimate technique of the Haotian Sect, and its power is truly remarkable." Ding Quan nodded as he spoke. This ultimate technique can indeed give people an explosive increase in strength, granting them great power in a short period of time.
If it were a battle between equals, using this ultimate technique would indeed have an overwhelming advantage. Unfortunately, Tang San was facing a Soul Master who was two levels higher than him, and whose Soul Ring configuration and Martial Soul strength were no weaker than his, or even stronger.
This ultimate skill is indeed very powerful, but if it were to face an opponent whose spirit ring configuration is no less than that of the Clear Sky Hammer, it might have a certain advantage in battle, but it would not be easy to win easily.
The drawbacks of the exploding ring are also huge. If you don't confront the opponent directly when they use it, the opponent will have great power but will be unable to exert it. After all, the Haotian Hammer is too heavy, which means that the speed of the person using it is at a disadvantage to some extent.
Soul Masters who can normally cultivate to the level of Title Douluo have rich combat experience. Even the slightest disadvantage will be magnified in their eyes and become a breakthrough point.
"You're hiding even deeper." Tang Hao looked at Ding Quan and the others warily. The strength Ling was displaying at this moment was probably no match for even him, especially since he was using the Great Sumeru Hammer.
The opponent had not yet unleashed their Martial Soul True Form, which was a 100,000-year-old seventh spirit ring. Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer possessed a 100,000-year-old seventh spirit ring, and the amplification of a 100,000-year-old Martial Soul True Form to a spirit master exceeded his imagination.
"If Tang San reaches level 95, he might be able to win. The two-level difference in soul power between a Title Douluo is not easy to bridge."
"Level 95? That's hard to say."
Tang Hao's expression was solemn. A level 95 Title Douluo is called a Super Douluo, whose strength is incomparable to that of an ordinary Title Douluo. It is the starting point for a qualitative change in the strength of a Title Douluo.
"Shatter!" Tang San's voice came from afar. Then, in Ding Quan's eyes, two more black spirit rings on Tang San's body shattered, making the Clear Sky Hammer even more crimson.
He unleashed a powerful burst of soul force, which briefly blocked the ice blade storm. Then, with a swing of the Clear Sky Hammer, he charged towards Ling Gong with unstoppable momentum.
Tang Hao watched Tang San rushing forward, his eyes narrowing. Tang San's control over the Haotian Nine Absolutes was now superior to his own. At this moment, Tang San was using the Haotian Nine Absolutes - the "Sha" technique. This move was flashing in and out of sight, and his figure became extremely unrestrained.
Boom!
A massive ice spike struck Tang San's Haotian Hammer directly, producing a dull thud as the ice spike shattered silently.
However, Tang San's face showed no excitement; instead, he suddenly retreated.
Bang!
A huge explosion rang out, and the ice cone burst open as it shattered, tearing the clouds in the sky away. After the sound subsided, only a blue sky remained.
"Damn it!" Tang San's face darkened. The power of the ice explosion controlled by the opponent was too great, and he dared not withstand it head-on.
The skill of exploding the rings is indeed powerful in enhancing one's own strength, but it is a skill that inflicts significant damage on oneself and cannot be sustained for long. The power provided by the explosion of the first soul ring was completely exhausted when facing the Ice Blade Storm, and one did not even manage to touch a corner of the opponent.
Seeing the ice blade storm coming again, he could not drag it out any longer. His opponent was obviously aware of the weakness of his explosive ring skill and had not been able to confront him head-on. Instead, he had been using his fourth soul skill to restrict and wear him down.
Thinking this, Tang San suddenly unleashed a burst of soul power from his left leg, and then a blade like a sharp axe pierced through his body, directly cleaving a huge gash in the ice blade storm released by Ling, and flew towards Ling with undiminished momentum.
It is the soul bone skill of the 100,000-year-old Demon Orca King, the Demon Orca Axe. It is a linear single-target attack skill with tremendous power.
Upon seeing the skill Tang San unleashed, Ding Quan immediately understood that the Demonic Tiger Whale King must have become Tang San's spirit ring, and it should be his seventh spirit ring.
opportunity!
Tang San saw that the Demonic Tiger Whale Axe had arrived in front of Ling, and the Ice Blade Storm in front of him had been opened by the 100,000-year-old soul bone skill. His eighth soul ring lit up again. At the same time, one of his black soul rings shattered again, turning into pure energy and merging into the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Hammer flew towards Ling like a meteor in his hand, emitting a scarlet blood light.
Is this Tang San's eighth spirit skill that he just used? It seems that the other skill of Tang San's eighth spirit ring is not an attack skill.
Aren't you going to dodge?
Tang San watched as Ling raised her left hand and blocked the Demonic Tiger Whale Axe again. The defensive skills provided by her torso soul bone were indeed terrifying.
But at this moment, the power of the Haotian Hammer far surpasses the Soul Bone skill weakened by the Ice Blade Storm. Could she still be confident that she could block her Great Sumeru Hammer?
However, Ling immediately told him the answer.
As he raised his right hand, a massive, blood-red longsword appeared in Ling's grasp.
When the rather enormous longsword appeared in Ling's hand, Tang Hao and Tang San's expressions turned extremely terrified, because the blood-red longsword exuded a blood-red aura.
The terrifying blood-red killing intent stained the ice and snow around Ling with blood.
This killing intent far surpassed that of the God of Slaughter Domain. Tang San looked at the crimson aura spreading towards him and felt the suppression he still experienced even after using the Exploding Rings technique.
This is the same longsword that Ling Gang had on the back of his hand? The mark on his forehead was called the divine weapon, the Trident of the Sea God, by Ding Quan.
Could this be!
A divine artifact! Tang Hao also considered this possibility, and then looked at Ling Changjian with horror as he thrust the sword, directly blocking the great Sumeru Hammer that was as fast as a meteor. The power contained in the great Sumeru Hammer seemed to have disappeared.
To achieve this level of sophistication, perhaps only a divine artifact could accomplish it.
"That sword?"
"That's a divine artifact." Ning Rongrong looked at the Clear Sky Hammer, known as the number one weapon spirit in the world, which was blocked by Ling so casually. All the major forces knew about this unique skill of the Clear Sky Sect. The Clear Sky Sect became the number one sect on the continent because of this unique skill and the Nine Absolutes of Clear Sky.
I've already witnessed the power of this amazing skill; it truly lives up to its reputation. Yet, Ling has blocked it so effortlessly.
The power of divine artifacts is indeed beyond the comprehension of Soul Masters.
"A divine artifact!" Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others were taken aback. Ling was able to use a divine artifact, and they recalled what she had just said.
In terms of divine succession, she is definitely like Tang San, someone who has inherited a divine position and already possesses a divine artifact.
"They stopped."
Not only did the Shrek Seven Devils fall silent, but Tang San, who was fighting Ling, also recalled his Clear Sky Hammer and did not make another move.
He had realized that even if he destroyed all his spirit rings, he would still be unable to pose a threat to Ling.
"This aura, this sword, could it be...?"
"That's right, this Asura Demon Sword was obtained in the City of Slaughter." Ding Quan answered Tang Hao's question, and the killing intent emanating from the Asura Demon Sword made Tang Hao take notice.
"The City of Slaughter...it really is the domain of a god!" Tang Hao looked at the two who had stopped fighting. He was very familiar with the rumors about the City of Slaughter; he'd heard it was the domain left behind by a level 100 god. But he'd never seen this longsword before. If it was, who was it most likely in the hands of? "You attacked the King of Slaughter?!"
Tang Hao recalled that the group had entered the City of Slaughter not long ago, and now Ling Gang's killing intent had surpassed his own. In the City of Slaughter, only the King of Slaughter had ever surpassed him in killing intent.
"That's right. Speaking of which, Tang San, if you go to Seagod Island later, you might be pleasantly surprised." Ding Quan looked at Tang San, who had now come to Tang Hao's side. Tang San's complexion was not good, and his aura was not as strong as before.
The drawbacks of the exploding ring became immediately apparent when he retracted his martial soul.
Tang San had only destroyed four spirit rings, but he had already suffered considerable internal injuries, his face turned pale, and his breathing became unstable.
"Surprise?" Tang San looked at Ling, whose aura had not changed at all. The only person who could probably beat her was Senior Poseidon. She actually already had a divine artifact in her hands.
Could it be that after defeating Poseidon, I will also be able to access the divine artifact?
"The sparring is over, so we won't keep you any longer, senior. After all, Tang San still needs treatment," Ding Quan said to Tang Hao.
"We may have to fight again later," Tang San said in a deep voice. He was now certain that Ding Quan and the others in front of him were the powerful opponents that Poseidon had mentioned he would face later.
The opponent was the most terrifying Title Douluo he had encountered at this moment. Although he might not be the strongest, he would definitely be one of the strongest in the future, even stronger than Poseidon.
"Really? We do have a chance later." Ding Quan didn't say anything more upon hearing this, as he had already seen the limits of Tang San's strength at this point.
Even if the opponent obtains the ninth spirit ring for the Clear Sky Hammer, apart from the increase in spirit power, their strength will not fluctuate much.
Having an extra 100,000-year soul ring is indeed useful, but it won't fundamentally change your strength.
Watching Tang Hao and Tang San leave, Ding Quan and the others also prepared to set off. Although Tang San's last Clear Sky Hammer spirit ring was difficult to absorb the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's spirit ring, it was better to make preparations early to prevent any unforeseen complications. The Sea God was too kind to his inheritors.
"Where is Zhu Qing?" Ding Quan asked, noticing that one person was missing from the group present.
"Dai Mubai has something to discuss with her," Ning Rongrong said with a strange expression after glancing at Ding Quan.
"Is that so? That's fine then."
Ding Quan looked in one direction, where two streams of soul power were emanating. He then stopped paying attention. At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing was indeed saying her final goodbye to her former self. Her current strength was no different from that of a Title Douluo. If she were to become a Soul Douluo, even the Star Luo Empire would be unable to do anything to her. At that time, whether she wanted to change her family or something else, it might not be a problem.
"Quan, Tang San's sixth spirit ring is a bit strange. That skill makes it impossible for me to dodge his spirit skill attacks. Otherwise, I wouldn't have chosen to take the 100,000-year spirit skill he released later head-on."
"If I'm not mistaken, his sixth spirit ring should be a divinely bestowed spirit ring."
When Ding Quan saw Tang San's sixth spirit ring, he was a little surprised. The spirit ring was red, which meant it was a spirit ring with an age of more than 95,000 years. Since the age had reached that level, why not let it mature a little longer and try to obtain a spirit ring with an age of 100,000 years?
Furthermore, Tang San shouldn't absorb spirit rings obtained from hunting spirit beasts, so the only possibility is a divinely bestowed spirit ring.
"A divinely bestowed soul ring?"
"That's right. Absorbing a divinely bestowed soul ring can give you the best soul ring skill that is most suitable for you and whose age is the limit that you can absorb. If the age reaches 100,000 years, you will only have one skill." Ding Quan said, looking at Ling's left hand.
"I see?" Ning Rongrong understood. Ling possessed a top-grade 100,000-year-old soul bone on his left hand. This soul bone only provided one skill, but the power of this skill was unmatched by any other 100,000-year-old soul bone.
"Tang San has a divinely bestowed spirit ring, what about the others?" Shui Bing'er's eyes lit up, and she asked immediately. The spirit ring that best suits their spirit skills and has the maximum age limit is perfect for the current group of people.
Right now, he and Ning Rongrong are all thinking about what skills they will need in the future.
"They should have received a divinely bestowed soul ring, but it's unclear whether they've already absorbed it."
"Quan, I'll go check on Zhu Qing." Wei'er heard a sound coming from not far away, where Dai Mubai and the others were still.
Before Ding Quan could say anything, Wei'er and Ning Rongrong had already disappeared from their sight.
Watching the two figures disappear before their eyes, the divinely bestowed soul rings were indeed an opportunity.
