Chapter 34 The Tragic Second Elder
Chapter 34 The Tragic Fifth Elder
A hundred miles away from the peak of Haotian Sect, in the sky above.
The Fifth Elder clutched his chest with his left hand and gripped the Haotian Hammer in his right, looking at Yue Guan and Gui Mei with a wary expression.
A trickle of blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
He was both shocked and terrified. He never expected to encounter an ambush by two Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall here!
He had been chasing Ye Ming and hadn't paid any attention to his surroundings. He never expected to be ambushed from behind by Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
If he hadn't reacted in time, he would probably have perished here by now!
The thought that he was injured because of Tang Yeming increased the Fifth Elder's resentment towards him.
In fact, the fact that the Haotian Sect had been closed off for many years had made him lower his guard. He was relaxed because the two men were able to ambush him here, as he was not far from the Haotian Sect.
Despite the churning in his internal organs, the Fifth Elder sneered at Yue Guan and the ghost before him, "Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, this is the territory of my Haotian Sect!"
"If you two don't leave now, you won't be able to leave later!"
"Do you really think you can kill me with just a chrysanthemum and a little devil like you?"
After the Fifth Elder finished speaking, anger instantly appeared on the faces of Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
They also knew that the Fifth Elder was right. This place was not far from the Haotian Sect, and with the strength of a Title Douluo, it would indeed not take long to get here.
But the Fifth Elder's words completely triggered their fury.
Five years ago, Tang Hao said these words, and they were wary of him destroying the Spirit Hall, which allowed him to successfully rescue the 100,000-year-old spirit beast!
But now, you, an injured Title Douluo, actually dare to say such things in front of the two of us!
court death!
"A chrysanthemum?"
"A little devil?"
Yue Guan's elegant demeanor vanished, replaced by a ferocious expression. He shrieked, "Old Ghost, beat him up!"
After saying this, the ninth black spirit ring on his body suddenly burst into light!
"Ninth Soul Skill!!!"
"Chrysanthemums wither, leaving only sorrow on the ground; fallen petals break one's heart!"
Seeing this, Ghostly chuckled sinisterly, and the ninth black soul ring on his body also emitted a dazzling light!
"Ninth Soul Skill, Hellish Wraith!!"
Black and gold appeared in the sky, chrysanthemums and ghostly figures intertwined, and then they all rushed towards the Fifth Elder!
At this moment, the Fifth Elder felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten excrement.
Damn, isn't what he said reasonable?
Besides, didn't you two just use your ninth soul skill in a sneak attack? And now you're doing it again?
Are you even being reasonable?!
As the attack approached, the Haotian Sect in the Fifth Elder's hand suddenly grew larger, instantly becoming the size of a mountain.
"The Great Sumeru Hammer!!"
He roared, gripped the hammer handle with both hands, and then attacked back and forth, directly blasting towards the oncoming golden chrysanthemums and countless ghostly shadows!
"Bang bang bang!!"
A sudden explosion rang out in the sky, the aftershocks radiating outwards in a ring of shockwaves, blasting the surrounding clouds several miles away. The peaks of several nearby mountains were shattered by this powerful surge of soul energy.
As the aftershocks subsided, the Fifth Elder in the center of the battlefield suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, mixed with some fragments.
He suddenly took a few steps back, his body trembling slightly.
When Yue Guan and Gui Mei launched their sneak attack, he withstood two of their ninth soul skills, and was already seriously injured.
He used the Great Sumeru Hammer to deflect the opponent's attack, but the force of the recoil shattered his internal organs!
If he hadn't already reached the Title Douluo level, these injuries alone would have been fatal.
Looking at Yue Guan and Gui Mei, who were only slightly out of breath, he felt a bitter taste in his mouth.
The battle just now was quite intense, and it must have alerted several elders in the sect. If we can hold out for a while, we will surely be able to receive their help.
But given the current situation, I'm afraid I'll perish here before they even come to my rescue!
"Without paying a price, things are unlikely to end well today!"
He was filled with resentment. If it weren't for Tang Yeming, how could he have ended up in this situation?
"After this battle, I will definitely capture Tang Yeming and skin him alive!"
Seeing the restless Yue Guan and the ghost in front of him, the Fifth Elder's soul power surged again, and all nine of his soul rings flashed with light at the same time.
At the same time, the previously shrunken Haotian Hammer grew larger again.
"Pfft!!"
He spat out a mouthful of blood, but the Fifth Elder ignored it.
He roared, and the first hundred-year soul ring on his body, which was flashing with yellow light, suddenly exploded with a crack!
"That's not enough!"
In an instant, the remaining eight spirit rings on his body exploded, transforming into a terrifying power that merged into the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand.
At this moment, the Haotian Hammer, the size of a mountain peak, was imbued with terrifying power, as if it were about to smash the entire sky apart!
"Great Sumeru Hammer - All Nine Rings Explode!!!"
The Fifth Elder's face flushed red as he swung the Haotian Hammer with all his might, aiming it at Yue Guan and Gui Mei!
The hammer was still in mid-air, and the space seemed unable to bear it, already making a cracking sound.
Moonlight and Ghost, however, remained completely unmoved.
This wasn't the first time Moonlight had witnessed this move; he had rushed towards Ghostly Strike as soon as the Fifth Elder shattered his first spirit ring.
Ghost and he had known each other for decades, and the two had a perfect understanding.
The two's auras merged, and their Martial Soul Fusion Technique was activated!
"The Realm of Yin and Yang Stillness!!"
"Buzz!!"
A peculiar wave spread out, enveloping the Fifth Elder who was wielding the Haotian Hammer.
In an instant, he was frozen in mid-air, still in the swinging hammer posture.
The Fifth Elder's expression changed once again.
Damn it!! Can you guys even play anymore?!
He poured all his power into the Haotian Hammer, but he couldn't swing it!
This is even more frustrating than taking a magic drug, loading a bullet, walking into a brothel, and finding it's closed!
The fusion skill of Yue Guan and Gui Mei froze his movements, but the Clear Sky Hammer continued to consume his soul power and the power of his soul rings.
Fortunately, Yue Guan and Gui Mei, who were using the domain, had to maintain it and could not use any more soul skills. Otherwise, any soul skill would have been enough to kill him.
The situation immediately reached a stalemate.
The Fifth Elder felt the backlash from the dissipation of the Clear Sky Hammer's power and was anxious. Yue Guan and Gui Mei were equally anxious.
They had already sensed several figures flying out from the Haotian Sect, heading towards this place.
If they had more time, they wouldn't be able to leave!
"Old Yue, let's retreat!"
The ghost withdrew its hand, a wave of darkness emanating from its body, grabbed Yue Guan, and fled into the distance.
Yue Guan turned his head and saw the Fifth Elder coughing up blood, with several figures already appearing outside the distant mountain peaks behind him.
He gritted his teeth, unleashed a chrysanthemum-shaped blade at the Fifth Elder, and then fled the battlefield with Ghost.
The Fifth Elder was now powerless to resist the chrysanthemum-shaped blade. He squeezed out the last bit of strength in his body, twisted his body, and slightly shifted his trajectory.
This caused the chrysanthemum blade that was originally meant to strike his chest to only sever his left arm.
He closed his eyes, could no longer hold on, and fell downwards.
However, at the last moment, Tang Xiao suddenly appeared and caught him with a gloomy expression.
"The Spirit Hall!"
"Chrysanthemum Pass! Ghostly apparition!"
"You deserve to die!"
