Douluo: I Have an Unnamed Law

Chapter 186 Tang Chen Blocks the Way
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is very, very close to Heaven Dou City, so Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chen Xin had already arrived at Yuexuan and were currently exchanging pleasantries and compliments with the nobles in the reception room.

Chen Xin kept a cold face the whole time, giving off an unapproachable vibe. He really disliked this kind of pretentious situation, but he was already used to it, which was why he didn't leave and just followed behind Ning Fengzhi without saying a word.

No one dared to provoke Chen Xin, nor did anyone dare to express dissatisfaction with his appearance. They all greeted him respectfully and then left him alone.

This perfectly illustrates that when a person is weak, everything they do is wrong and they will be ridiculed.

But once they become powerful, no matter how unconventional their actions are, they will be praised and glorified.

Outside the Moon Pavilion, as time passed, guests arrived one after another, but Gu Han was nowhere to be seen, and Tang Yuehua's mood became increasingly depressed.

"Third sister, don't wait any longer, let's go inside first."

Tang Hao stepped forward and gently patted Tang Yuehua's shoulder.

Tang Yuehua shook her head slightly and said, "Second brother, as the master of Yuexuan Pavilion, I should naturally be here to welcome guests. Since the guests have not all arrived yet, I should continue to wait here."

Tang Hao scratched the back of his head, realizing he couldn't do anything about his little sister, so he could only go along with her wishes and continue to sit beside her and wait.

"Brother Gu, why haven't you arrived yet?"

"Could it be that they stood me up?"

Tang Hao muttered to himself, "Logically speaking, the other party has the ability to fly, so he should have arrived by now. I have reason to suspect that Gu Han stood me up."

Outside Tiandou City, Gu Han looked at the black-haired man in front of him. The man exuded an imposing aura, giving people a heavy sense of oppression.

"Senior Tang Chen."

The newcomer was none other than Tang Chen, the former sect leader of the Haotian Sect, who had stepped down from his position several years ago.

From then on, like Qian Daoliu, he became a person behind the scenes, basically appearing and disappearing like a dragon.

Now that they've stopped me here, I wonder what it's all for?
But Gu Han did not ask, and he respectfully performed a junior's bow.

Tang Chen ignored the presence of the two guardian spirits lurking in the shadows, nodded slightly, and raised his hand, saying:

"No need to be polite."

"Thank you, senior."

Gu Han straightened up again.

"I've heard that you created a sword technique specifically designed to counter the Clear Sky Hammer?"

Tang Chen spoke slowly, having already learned about this from Tang Xiao and Tang Hao.

Having happened to run into the other party this time, he decided to test the waters.

He was very curious about what kind of swordsmanship could have earned such high praise from the Tang brothers, Tang Xiao and Tang Hao.

"I dare not presume to acknowledge this. It is merely a sword technique I created in my spare time. Naturally, it is not worthy of being presented in front of you, senior."

Gu Han became wary. Could Tang Chen be here to kill him and silence him?
With this in mind, he secretly used his mental power to observe the other party's every move, and if anything seemed amiss, he immediately used teleportation to escape.

Fighting is out of the question. Right now, facing a veteran master of level 99, he has absolutely no chance of winning. The only way to survive is to run away.

Seeing Gu Han's nervousness, Tang Chen smiled and waved his hand: "Haha, don't be nervous, I won't do anything to you. I'm just curious, curious about what kind of swordsmanship it is."

He beckoned and said, "Come, use your sword technique on me."

Tang Chen wasn't afraid that his created moves would be countered; on the contrary, he was delighted that someone had actually found the weakness of his hammer technique. This was a good thing.

In this way, he can identify and fill in the gaps in his knowledge, and have the opportunity to make further progress.

The two brothers, Qianjun and Jiangmo, who were hiding in the shadows, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Tang Chen really wanted to kill them, even if the two of them stepped forward, they would be beaten to a pulp and would have no power to resist.

Fortunately, Tang Chen was not as petty as they had imagined. After learning that the Haotian Hammer Technique had been broken, he did not harbor any murderous intent. Instead, he developed a fondness for talent and deliberately came here to personally test Gu Han's swordsmanship.

Upon hearing this, Gu Han knew that this battle was unavoidable. Fortunately, the opponent had no murderous intent, so being able to fight a level 99 being was not bad. "In that case, this junior will make a fool of himself."

Gu Han bowed respectfully, and the next moment, his aura changed, from the previous respectful and otherworldly demeanor to a fierce and sharp one, like a banished immortal descending to earth, pointing his sword at Tang Chen.

"What a powerful presence!"

Tang Chen's eyes lit up. This kind of momentum was exactly in line with the unstoppable momentum of his Clear Sky Hammer.

In his hand, a large hammer crackling with purple lightning appeared.

After a brief standoff, Gu Han launched the first attack.

The first soul skill was activated, unleashing endless sword energy that, like a net covering the sky, sealed off all of Tang Chen's positions, leaving him with no way to escape.

The cold light, carrying an aura of cleaving everything, fell down in a devastating barrage.

Gu Han followed closely behind, his sword tip flashing with a dazzling cold light, aimed directly at Tang Chen's vitals.

"Well come."

Tang Chen swung his Haotian Hammer, completely neutralizing the incoming sword energy.

Then, the hammer spun around and slammed towards Gu Han, who was following behind.

Gu Han had anticipated this scene. Before the hammer could strike, he vanished and appeared beside Tang Chen, thrusting out his sword.

呲呲呲——

A piercing sound rang out, and at the critical moment, Tang Chen timely used the hammer handle to block the Xuan Shuang sword. Then, his aura surged, instantly sending Gu Han flying dozens of meters away.

Tang Chen pressed his advantage, raising his hammer and launching it forward.

Just as Gu Han regained his footing, Tang Chen was already in front of him, and the Haotian Hammer crashed down.

Seeing this, Gu Han dared not be careless. He activated his Tai Chi conception, striking first despite being behind, and used his longsword to catch the hammer handle. He then moved along with the force of the hammer's attack, finally guiding it to one side.

Tang Chen's eyes lit up slightly, and he continued to swing the Haotian Hammer, even unleashing the Haotian Ultimate Technique, sticking close to Gu Han and engaging in close combat.

In the sky, Gu Han continuously swung his sword to deflect attacks, and Tai Chi patterns flashed in and out of existence.

Tang Chen became increasingly alarmed and excited as the fight progressed.

This sword technique combines strength and gentleness, is ever-changing and unpredictable, and can strike first after being struck later, and has the effect of using the opponent's force against them. No wonder his two grandsons said they lost very frustratingly.

This feeling of having power but nowhere to use it can quickly cause a person's mentality to explode, and then they will fall into anxiety. The more anxious they are, the less they can do anything about the other party.

If your mindset is flawed, you will inevitably reveal your weaknesses and be given an opportunity to strike decisively.

Tang Chen pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out Gu Han's sword technique. Every swing of the sword was perfectly timed, as if it were a spontaneous reaction.

Tang Chen's body trembled slightly, and his aura surged, knocking Gu Han away.

"Alright, that's enough. You're quite the character, kid."

Tang Chen raised his hand and fought for a long time. Although he noticed many flaws in his Haotian Hammer Technique, he still couldn't find the weakness in Gu Han's Sword Technique.

The opponent's swordsmanship was so unpredictable that it was impossible to guess what the opponent's next move would be. The only way to overwhelm the opponent was by sheer difference in soul power.

However, this would contradict Tang Chen's original purpose. What he wanted was a way to break the deadlock between equals, not an absolute suppression of power.

After all, power can suppress for a time, but it cannot suppress forever.

Moreover, doing so is tantamount to burying one's head in the sand; it's an attempt to avoid the problems that have been encountered. The Haotian Hammer Technique has been broken and restrained, which is an established fact.

As a Limit Douluo, what he needs to do is not to overpower others with force, but to find a way to deal with them and find a hammer technique to break this sword technique.
