The red light protecting his body also began to overflow, actually blocking the erosion of the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain unleashed by Xu Tianyang and Snow Empress.
"This is..." Seeing this, Snow Empress looked at the red light around the Slaughter King's body in surprise. This power actually blocked her and Xu Tianyang's combined attack. What kind of power was this?
"Divine power, this is the power of a God," Xu Tianyang said in a deep voice. He knew that Tang Chen had revived, and having inherited the Asura God's power, he was definitely an even more terrifying opponent.
Fortunately, his body had been so thoroughly eroded by the Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King that he was on his last legs.
"Kill!"
A cold 'kill' word was spat from his mouth. The original evil aura on Tang Chen's body disappeared, and the red light transformed into the purest killing intent, pure and terrifying to the extreme.
It instantly suppressed the Snow Dance Extreme Ice Domain.
"Killing intent... it can actually reach this level!" Ice Empress, Snow Empress, and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm looked at Tang Chen in shock. This immense killing intent was beyond their imagination.
Unbelievable!
Tang Chen's eyes suddenly lit up at this moment. His incomparably deep black eyes seemed to be glowing, revealing contemplation and some complex emotions.
His face also seemed to have undergone some changes. Although he still looked like a middle-aged man, he was much more handsome than in his state as the Slaughter King.
All evil was replaced by a righteous spirit.
His black hair behind his head moved without wind. Standing there, he no longer had the Slaughter King's previous ethereal figure, but was as solid as a mountain, filled with the demeanor of a grandmaster.
"A Spirit Emperor brat, a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, and..."
"A remnant soul of a God!"
Tang Chen's gaze swept over the figures in Slaughter City one by one, and he said in a cold voice. Red light burst from his right hand. At this moment, the aura emanating from his entire body had reached an indescribably powerful level.
A red phantom filled with infinite killing intent flashed behind him. The red light in his palm condensed into a hammer shape.
An incomparably huge red great hammer, shining with countless magnificent demonic patterns. After the great hammer appeared, it quickly changed, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a blood-colored great sword over two meters long.
"Kill!!!"
Tang Chen suddenly shook his right hand, and the blood-colored great sword transformed back into the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Hammer, shining with countless magnificent demonic patterns, slammed towards Xu Tianyang and Snow Empress.
"Emperor Sword: Ice Pinnacle Unrivaled!"
In Snow Empress's palm, extreme cold once again condensed into an ice crystal longsword. One sword strike tore the sky and split the earth.
"Boom!"
Blue and blood-red instantly merged into one and then erupted.
A massive impact force, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami, swept in all directions. All the surrounding unmanned buildings were completely annihilated by this power. Only the area where Xu Tianyang was located was blocked by a spirit power barrier and remained barely unscathed.
Within a thousand-meter radius, all the ground and buildings completely disappeared, not turning into ash, but simply vanishing into thin air.
"What terrifying power!"
A figure flew backward to Xu Tianyang's side. Snow Empress looked at Tang Chen in shock. She had only felt this kind of pure power suppression from the Titan Snow Demon King.
She felt a mess inside her body at this moment. More importantly, after coming into contact with that red light, her spirit power and mental power were suppressed as never before.
This was why she appeared somewhat disheveled after Tang Chen's attack.
"You are not an ordinary 100,000-year Spirit Beast." Tang Chen's body condensed a layer of ice crystals. A blood-red light flashed, and the extreme cold instantly receded. His eyes, looking at Snow Empress, were filled with solemnity.
He had fought 100,000-year Spirit Beasts before, but very few could block one of his hammer strikes. This was his first time seeing a 700,000-year fierce beast like Snow Empress.
"Is this how Senior Tang Chen treats the benefactor who awakened him?" Xu Tianyang looked at Tang Chen, saying with displeasure.
"How many years has it been? Even I don't know how many years have passed. I didn't expect anyone in this world to still recognize me."
"Brat, why do you associate with Spirit Beasts?" The Clear Sky Hammer in Tang Chen's hand was placed horizontally on the ground. Although he was alone, he displayed a stance of blocking the world.
His voice had changed greatly compared to before. It was no longer sharp and sinister, but had become old and heavy, filled with an boundless Domineering.
"Snow Empress is my important friend." Xu Tianyang looked at Tang Chen with a serious expression.
Snow Empress, who was on guard nearby, showed a slight flicker of emotion, then quickly returned to normal.
"As for how I know Senior Tang Chen, in this era, the only Clear Sky Hammer Spirit wielder with such cultivation is the peerless Tang Chen of the land from back then."
"What time is it now? Who is the current Pope of Spirit Hall? And who is the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect?" Tang Chen didn't intend to delve into the relationship between Xu Tianyang and Snow Empress. Since the other party was with such a powerful Spirit Beast like Snow Empress, and even a remnant soul of a God, he figured they weren't simple individuals.
He only wanted to know some information about the outside world now, especially... A deep sorrow suddenly flashed in Tang Chen's eyes.
"The current Pope is Bibi Dong, the daughter-in-law of the peerless Qian Daoliu of the sky. As for the Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, it is Tang Xiao," Xu Tianyang said unhurriedly.
"Xiao'er?" Tang Chen's expression instantly changed, and his voice suddenly became low. He stared at Xu Tianyang, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"What happened to the Clear Sky Sect? And what about my Hao'er?"
From just a few sentences, Tang Chen had deduced many things.
Why was the Pope of Spirit Hall a woman? One had to know that all previous Popes were from the Qian family. When did a female Pope appear?
Moreover, he had clearly passed on the position of Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect to his son. Judging by the age of a Titled Douluo, he wouldn't have retired so early, and even if he were to retire, it should have been passed to Tang Hao.
One had to know that Tang Hao's Great Sumeru Hammer was taught by him, and the title of Clear Sky Douluo was also passed to Tang Hao, making him a successor from a different generation.
Tang Hao had more legitimacy than Tang Xiao.
"Thirteen years ago, Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao killed the previous Pope, Qian Xunji, which led to Spirit Hall threatening the Clear Sky Sect to hand over the culprit. The Clear Sky Sect chose to expel Tang Hao as a Haotian outcast, and the direct lineage retreated to the ancestral land. Clear Sky Douluo has been missing ever since." Xu Tianyang briefly summarized the beginning and end of the matter.
"Hahahahaha... Qian Daoliu... Spirit Hall..." Tang Chen burst into laughter upon hearing this, but in his laughter, his expression was extremely painful, and two streams of blood tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Then, Tang Chen wiped away the blood tears from his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, his entire being was filled with a violent aura. "Decades like a dream, everything seems to have lost its meaning. Asura, what an Asura. I still failed to pass your test."
The turbulent energy fluctuations made everything around tremble.
The Clear Sky Hammer in Tang Chen's hand transformed back into the Asura God Sword, constantly overflowing with streaks of blood-red light.
