Xuan Ming sat up. “If you had been like this earlier, how good would that have been? We wouldn’t have had to reach this point.”

If Qian Renxue hadn’t been so deeply obsessed and yet helpless, Qian Daoliu wouldn’t have intervened.

If she hadn’t forcibly taken him from the Supreme Pontiff Palace back then, they wouldn’t have become mortal enemies.

Alas, life has no ‘if onlys.’ They could only follow this path to its bitter end.

“Do you really think we have no room left at all?” Qian Renxue struggled to sit up, looking at Xuan Ming with a complex expression.

“It’s not what I think; it’s reality,” Xuan Ming said.

“Just like you were always unwilling to change even a tiny bit in the past, now I…”

Before he finished speaking, an icy, bone-chilling killing intent suddenly erupted from the mountain forest to the side!

A dark figure flashed like a ghost, and a massive Clear Sky Hammer, carrying with it the power to destroy the world, aimed directly for Qian Renxue’s head!

Xuan Ming’s pupils constricted. His spirit power surged wildly, forcefully suppressing his injuries.

The black fifth spirit ring transformed into a golden light and merged into the Blood Spear. The originally dormant Blood Spear instantly erupted with a monstrous blood-red glow, and a ferocious aura swept in all directions!

He flashed, already standing in front of Qian Renxue.

The Blood Spear rose against the heavens, clashing head-on with that world-destroying hammer blow!

“Boom—!!!”

The deafening crash of the two weapons reverberated through the valley. A terrifying energy shockwave spread like a tsunami. The surrounding rocks were all pulverized, and the flying debris was like a torrential rain!

Xuan Ming felt an irresistible immense force. His tiger’s mouth instantly split open, and fresh blood streamed down his arm.

Qian Renxue stared blankly at the back shielding her, her eyes filled with shock.

Tang Hao, beneath his black robe, was equally shocked. He had been tracking Xuan Ming for a long time and had just felt the fluctuations of Holy spirit power, rushing over, only to see the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul!

“Tang Hao, you and Qian Daoliu are quite a match; neither of you cares about your face,” Xuan Ming said coldly.

Tang Hao remained silent. His Slaughter God Domain suddenly erupted, and the materialized killing intent actually pushed back the Blood Spear’s ferocious aura!

The Clear Sky Hammer was raised again, smashing down with even more terrifying power!

Xuan Ming no longer held back. Except for his sixth spirit ring, all his spirit rings transformed into golden light and merged into the Blood Spear.

The blood-red aura, suppressed by the Slaughter God Domain, surged again, actually condensing into a ferocious blood dragon at the spear’s tip, roaring at the sky!

The blood dragon and the giant hammer clashed again, and the heavens and earth lost their color.

An even more terrifying energy storm raged, collapsing the surrounding mountains and reducing trees to dust!

Qian Renxue was protected by an invisible wall behind him, watching helplessly as Xuan Ming endured this world-destroying blow, while she herself was out of spirit power, powerless to do anything.

“Boom!”

As the light dissipated, half of Xuan Ming’s body was already smashed into the ground.

Tang Hao, beneath his black robe, was also pushed back dozens of meters. His old injuries flared up, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

“In just two years, you’ve grown to this extent,” Tang Hao wiped away the blood, his voice low. “If you were given more time, no one in this world would probably be your opponent.”

“Unfortunately, you consort with Spirit Hall!”

The Slaughter God Domain intensified again. A black light flashed, and the Clear Sky Hammer transformed into a hundred-meter giant hammer, covering the sky!

“Clear Sky Avatar!”

Xuan Ming looked at the giant hammer pressing down from the sky, sighed softly, and put away his Blood Spear: “You forced my hand.”

A profound blue and fiery red light lit up above his head, intertwining to form a majestic dragon-headed crown—the Icefire Dragon Head Crown.

The moment the crown appeared, space twisted, and dragon roars shook the heavens!

The right half was deep ice crystal, wreathed in chilling air.

The left half was flowing lava, surging with fiery light.

A pair of dragon horns stood proudly, one ice, one fire, exuding ultimate majesty.

“Spirit Bone?” Tang Hao’s eyes changed slightly.

This was by no means an ordinary skull bone, but an imperial crown containing primordial power. The ice and fire energies were perfectly fused, making one’s heart palpitate.

It exuded a heart-palpitating pressure, half an extreme cold capable of freezing souls, the other half an eternal flame that could incinerate all things. The two energies were not simply spliced together but formed a perfect balance through opposition and fusion.

The right half was deep ice crystal, wreathed in chilling air, while the left half was a lava dragon bone, with fiery light flowing. A pair of dragon horns grew on its forehead, the right horn like an icicle, the left horn like burning rock. It exuded ultimate majesty, as if simultaneously containing the stillness of ice and the ferocity of fire.

The Icefire Dragon Head Crown.

The moment Xuan Ming opened his eyes, the crown’s light flared, and the ice and fire energies transformed into light pillars that shot into the sky! Within the light pillars, an icefire giant dragon slowly emerged, half ice crystal and half lava. Its dragon eyes opened, and a torrent of intertwined ice and fire light rushed towards the Clear Sky Avatar!

The heavens and earth trembled at the moment of impact!

Tang Hao’s old injuries were triggered again, and he spat out blood wildly.

He was secretly shocked, not expecting Xuan Ming to possess such terrifying strength. With such a huge commotion, the Titled Douluo of Tiandou City would definitely be drawn here. At that time, not only would he be exposed, but Tang San might also be implicated.

With this thought, Tang Hao endured the pain of his injuries, swung the Clear Sky Avatar again, creating an opening, then flashed, turning into a black lightning bolt, and disappeared into the vast mountain forest.

Xuan Ming did not pursue—he was also too weak to pursue.

The giant dragon’s phantom dissipated into thin air. The strange and majestic dragon-headed crown gradually vanished, and the profound blue light and crimson firelight faded together into the air.

Qian Renxue finally came back to her senses, her eyes filled with complex and inexpressible emotions.

Suddenly, Xuan Ming stumbled forward. Qian Renxue forcefully rallied her slightly recovered spirit power and flashed to catch him.

“Xuan Ming?” Qian Renxue looked at Xuan Ming with some urgency, using her limited Holy spirit power to provide him with healing and recovery.

Xuan Ming clutched his head, “I’m fine, just a little dizzy.”

“As for you, someone’s coming, Crown Prince.”

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue quickly activated her head Spirit Bone, once again disguising herself as Xue Qinghe, though she looked a bit battered.

Just as Qian Renxue finished her disguise, several figures rapidly flew in from a distance.

Bibi Dong arrived first, with Yue Guan and Gui Mei close behind.

Gu Rong also rushed over with Ning Fengzhi.

“What’s going on?” Bibi Dong’s brows furrowed.

An extremely rich ice and fire aura, a faint holy aura, and a lingering aura of the Slaughter God Domain?

“We came out to spar and were attacked,” Xuan Ming said.

“Attacked?” Gu Rong vigilantly observed his surroundings.

“Who would dare attack you?”

“A hammer, nothing else is known.” Xuan Ming forced himself, barely sitting up.

“A hammer?” Yue Guan and Gui Mei exchanged glances.

Tang Hao?

“Let me heal you first.” Ning Fengzhi summoned his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and a multicolored light flowed into Xuan Ming and Xue Qinghe’s bodies, rapidly restoring their nearly exhausted bodies.

“Hmm?” Ning Fengzhi’s eyes changed slightly.

Xuan Ming’s recovery speed was incredibly fast, and his absorption rate of the energy he injected was also extremely terrifying. Xue Qinghe’s spirit power circulation was also so fast that even he couldn’t discern its depth… It seemed his student also had many secrets.

After a short while, Xuan Ming and the other’s depleted bodies recovered significantly, and Ning Fengzhi also withdrew his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

“The injuries aren’t severe; they just need good rest,” Ning Fengzhi said.

“However, why did you two suddenly come to such a place to spar?”

“The scenery here is good,” Xuan Ming said.

“???”

Everyone was slightly stunned, looking around at the barren land. There was no way to associate this godforsaken place with good scenery.

“The scenery was actually pretty good just now,” Xuan Ming said.

“It’s just gone now.”

Bibi Dong looked around, her gaze falling on Xuan Ming and Xue Qinghe again. “For safety’s sake, let’s return to Tiandou City first.”

With that, Bibi Dong stepped forward, and powerful spirit power surged out, enveloping Xuan Ming and Xue Qinghe. Then, without waiting for Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong to say anything, her Eight-Winged Purple Light Wings vibrated slightly, and she directly carried the two of them, flying towards Tiandou City. Yue Guan and Gui Mei followed closely behind.

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong exchanged glances. Though somewhat puzzled, they quickly followed.

“What are you two up to?” Bibi Dong asked.

“Just sparring,” Xuan Ming said.

“Sparring? You call that scene sparring?” Bibi Dong glared at Xuan Ming.

The destruction at that godforsaken place just now could definitely not have been caused by Xuan Ming and Qian Renxue fighting!

That was the kind of destruction that only Titled Douluo-level Martial Soul True Body collisions could cause!

“We had already finished fighting, then Tang Hao came out again,” Xuan Ming said helplessly.

“When he smashed down with his hammer, what could I do? I could only fight him.”

Bibi Dong looked at Xue Qinghe, “What about She Long and the other one? Are they dead?”

“I… didn’t let them follow,” Xue Qinghe said, feeling a bit guilty.

Bibi Dong took a deep breath and slapped the back of Xuan Ming and the other’s heads with both hands.

Xue Qinghe lowered his head, a bit dazed.

Xuan Ming turned his head back defiantly, “Why did you hit me?”

“What do you think?” Bibi Dong glared at Xuan Ming.

“Tang Hao lost his mind; he attacked you?”

“Are you doing something behind my back again?”

Xuan Ming was a bit confused, “What did I do? Tang Hao smashed her!”

“Her?” Bibi Dong was slightly stunned.

“Her bird-person wings are on her back, and the holy aura is drifting there. Who would Tang Hao smash if not her?” Xuan Ming said speechlessly.

“And don’t forget, I’m nominally Tang Hao’s brother-in-law.”

“She was the one who set it up!”

“…”
