However, even a divine inheritor cannot survive against his Clear Sky Hammer. Tang Hao had great confidence in the power of the Nine Rings Explosive, believing that no other spirit master he had encountered possessed the same formidable strength as him. Especially with a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, the power of the explosion exceeded all imagination. Tang Hao felt that his strength had transcended to a new level, achieving an extraordinary state.
Despite being knocked back, Gu Yi did not change. Instead, he crossed the distance between him and Tang Hao even faster, his punch emitting a thunderous roar as it clashed directly with the Clear Sky Hammer.
But in front of the Nine Rings Explosive Tang Hao, his strength was ultimately lacking. He was knocked back again.
In this state, Tang Hao's power had surpassed his previous self by an unknown amount.
"Die!"
Tang Hao gathered his strength and swung the Clear Sky Hammer. The hammer's trajectory created spatial ripples, almost as if space itself could not withstand his power. Tang Hao showed no mercy, as he could only maintain this state for a very short time.
During his fall, the God Of Evil's power in Gu Yi's body quickly healed his injuries, even the vital energy from heaven and earth was locked within his body, ensuring his survival.
His eyes, filled with malice, flashed with a bloodthirsty glint. He threw another punch, but this time it lacked the previous momentum, not even creating a sonic boom.
Yet this punch made Tang Hao cautious. However, he remained confident in his own strength, believing that any tricky techniques were futile against absolute power.
During the attack, Gu Yi had even used some mental attacks, but they were ineffective. At this moment, Tang Hao was overwhelmingly powerful, his aura impenetrable by Gu Yi's mental power.
But this was only a supplementary move.
The fist and the hammer clashed again. This time, Gu Yi was sent flying further, unable to maintain his ability to hover.
Tang Hao intended to press his advantage but felt a powerful force transmitted from the Clear Sky Hammer into his body, causing internal damage.
"Ugh!"
The previous punch not only possessed great strength but also contained internal force that harmed his organs.
Tang Hao spat out a mouthful of blood, not expecting Gu Yi to have such a devious move, capable of attacking through objects. This move not only caused great damage but also aggravated his previous wounds.
Combined with the damage from the Nine Rings Explosive, Tang Hao almost couldn't maintain his position in the air, his strength rapidly declining, falling below the level of a Spirit Douluo.
"Damn it!"
Tang Hao looked at Gu Yi, who had fallen into the forest, with reluctance, realizing he had failed to kill him. For the first time in his life, Tang Hao felt regret. Had he spent the past twelve years properly healing and cultivating his spirit power, he wouldn't have been unable to deal with a mere youngster. Now, he couldn't even retrieve Ah Yin's spirit bone.
Tang Hao dared not stay any longer. Besides Gu Yi, there was also Dugu Bo, a Titled Douluo, present. Although Dugu Bo's strength wasn't significant, his poison could still affect Tang Hao in his current state. Next time, he would make sure to kill the despicable thief who stole Ah Yin's spirit bone.
After Tang Hao left, Gu Yi stood up from the pit. His eyes were fierce and terrifying, evidently still influenced by the evil god's power, his mind plagued by chaotic and malevolent thoughts, causing him immense pain. He continuously pounded the ground, creating thunderous noises. The evil god's power was far more ferocious and domineering than ordinary evil power.
However, the evil god's power, after all, was transient. After fighting Tang Hao for so long, it had nearly depleted, leaving only residual strength.
When everything calmed down, Dugu Bo, still in the poisonous miasma, said to the others, "If I don't return within the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, each of you should find a way to escape."
"Grandfather."
Dugu Yan called out, her tone filled with worry. Everyone's mood was somber, uncertain of what dangers lay ahead. They had witnessed Gu Yi's defeat and no one believed he could survive such overwhelming power.
A seed of hatred was planted in their hearts, especially in Wang Yanran's. To her, Gu Yi was her entire world, transforming her into who she was now.
When Dugu Bo left the miasma, he was shocked by the scene before him. Within a hundred meters, everything was leveled, with broken trees and the bodies of spirit beasts that hadn't managed to escape, indicating the inhumane strength that frightened him.
Dugu Bo soon saw Gu Yi lying in the pit. Among the areas, Gu Yi was the only breathing entity.
But where was Tang Hao?
A bold guess formed in Dugu Bo's mind. After they had left, a significant change must have occurred, and the seemingly defeated Gu Yi might have turned the tables.
"Hiss!"
Even the battle-hardened Dugu Bo gasped at Gu Yi's current state. Gu Yi's body was in shambles, his flesh and blood in tatters, with many bone fragments visible. If not for the slight rise and fall of his chest, Dugu Bo would have thought he was already dead.
Gu Yi was completely unconscious, his meridians severed, and the protective evil god's power had dissipated at some point. He was only alive because of the life force provided by the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Empress spirit bone in his leg.
Dugu Bo didn't hesitate, knowing the key was to restore Gu Yi's consciousness. Having seen Gu Yi use miraculous healing spirit skills while hunting the Dark Devilgod Tiger, he knew that as long as Gu Yi woke up, he could recover.
He didn't dare to move Gu Yi's body carelessly, fearing excessive force might extinguish his last breath. Gu Yi's life force was diminishing rapidly, and even the Blue Silver Emppress spirit bone had its limits.
Dugu Bo quickly flew towards the miasma. His spirit power wasn't suitable for healing, but the well contained something that could help Gu Yi recover. Dugu Bo understood this clearly.
"How is it?"
Dugu Yan asked anxiously when she saw her grandfather return.
But there was no time for explanations, as Dugu Bo continued flying towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Time was life, and Gu Yi couldn't afford any delays. To heal Gu Yi, a large amount of life force was necessary. In this natural medicinal garden, only one plant had the powerful healing ability needed.
