Bibi Dong and Xiaogang retreated creating distance. Most people had already forgotten about Tang Chen, but they had listened about him before. The previous patriarch of the Clear Sky Clan, a legend that had reached rank 99 long time ago, even stronger than Spirit Empire's Grand Priest, Qian Daoliu. Looking at his aura, he seemed to have recovered most of his strength.
Bai knew since the start that it would be almost impossible to win against Xiaogang and Bibi Dong, their power was incredible and he was sure that they had their own aces under the sleeves. When he saw them almost killing the Slaughter King, Bai's mind went overwork formulating a new plan.
His plan was using his detoxifier cookie, even improving its effects with his 7th skill as he didn't know how it would work in someone that had been affected by poison so much time, healing the Slaughter King's body, even improving the damage over all these years. However, simply curing him wouldn't be enough to face Xiaogang and Bibi Dong, the Slaughter King's strength was insufficient. So Bai opted to also heal his mind, like Mayi he had been affected by Rakshasa's madness so his scythe would work against it. Tang Chen had been a limit douluo and Asura's inheritor, stopping at the 8th trial. He should have a strength to at least distract one of them.
Bai plan worked, Tang Chen was completely healed, his strength flowing over all his body healing his previous wounds, reaching almost his top condition.
Recovering his mind and seeing the situation, Tang Chen unleashed his Clear Sky Hammer hitting Bibi Dong and Xiaogang away. Tang Chen turned towards Bai "Who are you?" Tang Chen knew that Bai was the one that healed his state, but he knew nothing about him or his intentions.
"I am Ning Bai. A friend of your grand grandchildren" Bai stated as he prepared to face the couple again "Keep the questions for later, now we have other things to focus."
Tang Chen grasped the situation of the strong couple trying to kill him, Bai at least now being his ally. He nodded accepting for now going with the flow, he would have time later to ask about his clan and the continent.
Tang Chen clenched his hammer, his rings shined, the hammer growing becoming 20 meters long with a surface of 5 meters of diameter. A red domain surged from him, concentring over his hammer. A great Killing Intent could be sense from it, it was somehow similar to Bibi Dong's own domain, but this one lacked the resentment and madness part and was replaced by a coldness and sharpness. This was his own Deathgod Domain that had evolved following the Asura's path.
He charged dragging his hammer towards them, each of his steps cracking the ground under him. Xiaogang stepped forward to block it. His right claws grew bigger and glowed with a black luster as he thrust it towards Tang Chen.
Tang Chen's strength could be considered tyrannical. His hammer had its own gravity that pulled his target towards him. There was no need for technique or for the rival evading, the gravity suppressed the target forcing it to receive his hammer.
Xiaogang found his own claws pulled by the gravity, meeting the giant hammer head-on. There was a black flash and Xiaogang was shot flying away vomiting blood while Tang Chen only was pushed 1 meter away. Tang Chen's strength was too much for Xiaogang skill to cope.
However, the clash had let Tang Chen completely opened to a new attack, even if his strength was enormous, his speed wasn't up to it. 20 Death Spiders appeared at his side, jumping toward him only to be pierced by 20 white swords. The spider exploded but the aura contained inside the swords blocked the explosion.
"You're not the only one that can control" Bai smirked having stop Bibi Dong's attack.
Xiaogang recovered, quickly returning over Bibi Dong's side. They nodded between each other. Xiaogang opened his mouth, darkness accumulating over it while at Bibi Dong's concentrated her strength over her green-purple scythe. Xiaogang shot a dragon's breath, black flames surging towards Bai and Tang Chen. Bibi Dong swung her scythe shooting a half-moon shaped green light that cut over the sky.
Bai shot swords forward, creating a shield, his All Swords would weakening the incoming attack while Tang Chen stepped forward "Crunch!" Tang Chen ate a White Fudge Oreo, his next attack being boosted.
The flames and green light broke Bai's shield. Tang Chen swung his hammer, the gravity of it pulling the attack towards him, directly facing his hammer that overpowered them, dispersing in the air. At the same time, an air shock was shot from the hammer.
Xiaogang moved in front of Bibi Dong protecting her from the attack. He crossed his arms successfully blocking the attack.
"Buaah!" Xiaogang vomited blood. The seemingly stopped air had made vibrate his scales and body, internally damaging him. If he hadn't used his overlapped skill, he would have been already defeated. It was only thanks to his dragon resilience and strength that he was able to continue fighting.
The Clear Sky Clan was one that focused on strength, facing everything head-on with their absolute strength. However, it didn't mean that they didn't have other tricks. Tang Chen had lived a long life and was very experienced in battles, in his travels learning new methods to attack and increase his strength. His hammer properties being wind and gravity, he had learned to force them with each of his swings.
"You're not bad, boy" Tang Chen praised Bai, his control and support abilities being the best that he ever saw. It was a perfect combination with a pure attack system like him.
Bibi Dong and Xiaogang where truly in a bad spot. Tang Chen's strength was too tyrannical. It perfectly countered Xiaogang's dragon strength. Moreover, Tang Chen's own domain had the characteristic of Asura, suppressing Bibi Dong's own Death domain, her Rakshasa's power falling short against Asura.
"Let's do it" Bibi Dong said. Xiaogang's transformation was released, returning to his usual form without any dragonic characteristic, San Luo Pao appearing in front of him.
Bibi Dong focused all her strength over her scythe, her rings shining. Her form returned to her human, a devil phantasm that resembled her previous form condensing at her back. The demon was attracted and absorbed by her scythe.
Xiaogang approached Bibi Dong. He held her hand, both touching the scythe's shaft. His ring shined and San Luo Pao turned into black smoke, this time being absorbed by Bibi Dong's scythe.
The aura from the scythe exploded in darkness and death energy, becoming 30 meters long scythe, its blade glowing with a black, purple, and jade light, while being held by both.
"<Spirit Fusion: Eternal Darkness>" This was their pseudo spirit fusion. It was pseudo because it wasn't a natural one. Xiaogang's mutation was due Bibi Dong's infection of evil spirit energy, making both of their energies extremely compatible. Xiaogang was able to give all his strength over Bibi Dong.
Seeing the incredible attack, Bai's side didn't stay still. Bai invoked a White Fudge Oreo and an Ant Strength Oreo and gave it to them to Tang Chen. At the same time, he focused all his All Swords over his swords that grew over 5 meters long as he prepared to unleash his strongest attack.
Tang Chen ate the cookies, being gratefully surprised by their great effects. His hammer disappeared from his hands, now a blood-red sword was held in them. The sword had a curved blade, having the form of a dao. It was extremely sharp seeming to be able to cut over any defense, a powerful divinity could be sense from it. It stimulated Tang Chen whose killing intent was skyrocketing, reaching another dimension, his eyes glowing with a strong blood-red light.
Seeing the dao, Bai couldn't help to gulp. That was the Asura's sword, considered one if not the strongest divine weapons from the Divine Realm.
Both sides prepared their strongest attack, their aura clashing against the others. Just as they stepped forward, preparing to unleash their attack, all of them stopped still. All of them turning their head towards the same direction with shocked faces.
Far away from their position, a holy golden pillar of aura pierced the sky, extending all over the continent, seemingly to illuminate the world. Showing all the world the strength of it, the descend of a god.
Bai unconsciously opened his mouth "Renxue"
