Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

"Those who obstruct will die!" Bibi Dong's eyes suddenly turned cold as she continued to issue the order without any mercy.

She had indeed promised Yu Xiaogang not to harm Tang San, but that was on the condition that Tang San didn't interfere with her. Now that he wanted to stop her from obtaining the 100,000-year spirit ring, there would only be one consequence. What was Tang San anyway? It wasn't like Yu Xiaogang was standing in front of him.

With two yellow, two purple, and five black soul rings, the same soul ring configuration, and the activation of the martial soul, Yue Guan and Gui Mei's speed will be increased even further.

"She really made her move." Tang Shan, watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the panicked Xiao Wu. He really didn't know if this little rascal was under a spell or genuinely stupid; knowing full well that the Spirit Hall was full of powerful figures, she still insisted on barging in...

Next, he should be making his move, right? One generation of Haotian, one generation of madman; generation after generation, the Pope of the Haotian Hammer. Tang Shan's spiritual power spread out, silently enveloping the entire Spirit Plaza, awaiting Tang Hao's appearance.

"Who dares to touch my people?" The voice was like thunder, exploding out of thin air. Before the person could be seen, the hammer arrived first. The giant hammer, the size of a mountain, directly enveloped the two Douluo, Chrysanthemum and Ghost, and due to its enormous size, it also enveloped the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team.

Tangshan?! No way, I've gone that far, how could you still hit me? What the hell?!

……

Spirit world

The Asura God, shrouded in a blood-red robe, stroked his chin, carefully observing the scene in the water mirror. Witnessing Tang Shan crush the Shrek Seven Devils, he was quite satisfied: "It seems that for the sake of the stability of the God Realm, I'd better not pass on this divine position for now. Or perhaps I should see if this kid can successfully create his own divine position. If not, maybe I can pass on the Asura God position to him." The Asura God, muttering to himself, did not notice that a figure in purple robes had silently appeared at the wide-open entrance of his Asura Blood Palace.

The God of Destruction came to the God of Asura today to make the final handover. On his way to the Asura Blood Palace, he encountered his subordinate, the God of Lust, one of the Seven Deadly Sins.

The Goddess of Lust had long, purplish-red hair, an exquisitely beautiful face, and purplish-red eyes that were full of tenderness and allure. A red gauze dress clung lightly to her exquisite body, revealing glimpses of her most alluring features.

The divine and the alluring overlap, giving rise to a powerful and fatal attraction; every gesture is seductive. Following behind the god of destruction, the god of lust is perfectly disciplined, showing no trace of the nature bestowed upon him by his divine position.

"Lust, what do you want with me?" The God of Destruction was completely unaffected by the God of Lust and walked towards the Asura Blood Palace on his own.

"Reporting to the Lord, we have already allocated most of the power of the Asura Enforcers. Is there anything else you require?"

When the Asura God left the God Realm, he naturally had to hand over the power he held in the God Realm. He did not favor either side, and transferred half of the power to life and destruction, and half to good and evil.

The God of Destruction then delegated some of his power to his subordinates, the Seven Deadly Sins, to help share the workload.

"That's all settled. I'm going to find Shura for a final check. You come along and help me out," the God of Destruction said, as the two of them walked to the front of the Shura Blood Palace.

Out of respect for the God of Asura, even though the temple doors were wide open, the God of Destruction intended to knock and give a heads-up. However, upon glancing at the temple, his pupils involuntarily contracted slightly.

At this moment, Tang Hao's eyes in the water mirror were bloodshot, and the Haotian Hammer, the size of a mountain, crashed down, its white killing intent faintly visible.

"Hehe, kid, who told you to ruin my plans? I'll give you a chance then." The Asura God chuckled, using the special connection of the Killing God Domain to remotely control Tang Hao's killing intent, driving him into a state of madness.

"Shura, what are you doing! Interfering with the lower realm without permission, you have violated the rules of the divine realm!" A roar suddenly rang out from behind. Shura God was startled. Even without turning around, the boiling aura of destruction revealed the identity of the newcomer.

"Destruction, let me explain." The God of Asura had no time to continue paying attention to the great battle about to take place on Douluo Continent. He chuckled dryly and turned his head, only to be met with a not-so-powerful bolt of Destruction God Lightning.

The Goddess of Lust wisely stepped aside. The battle between the two god-kings was not something a mere first-level god like her could interfere with. Even if they were both very careful, just a little bit of the conceptual power that violated or even distorted the rules would be enough to give her a hard time.

The purple-black divine lightning and the blood-red sword light intertwined and collided, shattering space and destroying the laws. Even though it was only a very small-scale battle, the God King's power was still evident.

The Goddess of Lust, hiding to the side, observed the battle between the two God-Kings before her gaze quickly shifted to the water mirror that led directly to the Douluo Continent. She had initially only been observing out of curiosity, but her expression changed when she saw a certain young woman within it.

……

Tang Shan never expected that Tang Hao would attack him. As for why he was so sure that Tang Hao was targeting him rather than harming innocent people, it was obvious. He was standing so far away, yet he was still enveloped by the Clear Sky Hammer. If it wasn't intentional targeting, what was it?

With his muscles bulging and his thigh sweeping across the room, Tang Shan, with his exquisite control of power, sent all the students except Gu Yue flying with a single kick, ensuring they landed unharmed.

At this moment, the Haotian Hammer, the size of a mountain, crashed down, distorting space, causing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to surge violently, and casting a huge shadow that completely enveloped half of the Martial Soul Plaza.

"Remember what I said before." Tang Shan pushed away Gu Yue, who was about to explode, and reminded her. Then, Tang Shan's body began to expand rapidly. His second soul skill, "Heaven and Earth Manifestation," was activated.

Before becoming a Soul Saint, each level of Soul Power in the "Heaven and Earth" skill corresponds to a 10% increase in body size. After breaking through to Soul Saint, the increase in size increases to 30% per level. After a period of arduous training following the breakthrough, Tang Shan's Soul Power level reached level 72. Therefore, the increase in body size after activating his second Soul Skill reached a terrifying 2160%.

Tang Shan's normal height is 1.8 meters, close to 1.9 meters. After the "Embracing the Elixir" stage, his height explodes to 2 meters. If he is "Seeing the Divine Indestructible" and his full physical potential is unleashed, his height will further expand to 2.2 meters.

Faced with Haotian Douluo's inexplicable attack, Tang Shan's choice was naturally to maximize his power in a short period of time, and his body began to expand rapidly.

boom!

The giant fist and the giant hammer collided with a thunderous crash, the body expanded rapidly, and the amethyst light spread, and a towering giant nearly forty-eight meters tall stood between heaven and earth.

Silence fell over the Martial Soul Plaza. Everyone stared at the giant, unsure of what to do.

Many people know about Tang Shan's soul skill effects, and many know that he can transform into a giant, but most of them only know about it through hearsay. For most people, witnessing him perform it firsthand is a first-time experience.

What does it mean to be a giant over forty meters tall? It's more than ten stories high, giving people an unparalleled sense of oppression. Not to mention the muscles that are still clearly defined under the amethyst armor, it's simply a nightmare.

Ignoring the shocked, fearful, or astonished gazes, Tang Shan's eyes were fixed on the man who was floating in the air not far away, shrouded in black mist. The man was holding a giant hammer the size of a mountain, with a hammerhead nearly a hundred meters long, which was simply terrifying.

"Tang Hao, what do you mean?" He slowly clenched his fingers, immense power flowing, surging, and converging within his body, ready to deliver a fatal blow to his opponent at any moment.

"What do I mean? What do you mean! I want to take my people away, why are you forcibly stopping me?" The lowered head slowly rose, the pupils had disappeared, and only bloodshot eyes remained.

As expected, Shura made his move. Tang Shan thought to himself, noticing Tang Hao's obviously abnormal state. He knew that during his Core Formation stage, he already possessed the ability to sense danger and avoid it. This ability allowed him to passively anticipate potential threats and actively sense the killing intent of powerful individuals who could threaten him.

Before Tang Hao attacked him, and even now that he has finished attacking, he has not sensed any killing intent from the other party. Therefore, there is only one possibility: this matter is influenced by a deity.

The gods' perception of Tang Shan is still affected. Although Gu Yue does not subjectively intend to kill him, the threat she possesses is objectively real. Yet Tang Shan and Gu Yue spend all day together without feeling any danger, which speaks volumes.

Given the connection between Tang Hao and the God of Asura, Tang Shan could easily guess the truth behind it all. There was just one thing he didn't understand: if the God of Asura truly wanted to deal with him, wouldn't it have been better to simply descend like the future Buddha Tang? Why did he need to manipulate Tang Hao into making a move?

"Die!" Before Tang Shan could think any further, Tang Hao had already swung his hammer and smashed it down. The air and even the sound barrier were shattered, the air currents raged, the space rippled, and cracks were faintly visible.

"Madman!" Tang Shan roared. Regardless of what the Asura God was planning, since Tang Hao was courting death, he wouldn't mind sending him on his way.

His will erupted, as if he were the embodiment of the rules of power. The power under his will flowed more and more smoothly. He raised his hand, threw a punch, and cracks appeared in the space as he collided head-on with the Haotian Hammer.

Boom!

The aftershocks raged, but Tang Hao, who was floating in mid-air, remained unshaken. Tang Shan, on the other hand, groaned and retreated, stepping off the arena with a huge footprint that shook the earth.

Chapter 474 Battle with Haotian

"Your Holiness, this..." Chrysanthemum Demon Two Douluo, who survived Tang Hao's hammer, returned to Bibi Dong's side, looking at Tang Shan and Tang Hao fighting, not knowing what to do.

Bibi Dong's expression shifted between light and dark. Just as she was about to give an order, she felt a sacred aura lock onto her.

There was no need to guess; Bibi Dong knew who that person was. In the entire Spirit City, there was only one person with divine soul power who could pose a threat to her—the Grand Elder of the Hall of Worship, Qian Daoliu.

Taking a deep breath to calm her frustration, Bibi Dong said, word by word, "Don't rush, let them fight." Her voice was filled with suppressed anger, and the veins on her right hand, which gripped the scepter, were bulging.

Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo exchanged a glance and wisely retreated a bit. Although they didn't know why the Pope had suddenly become angry, it was best to remain silent for a while to avoid getting into trouble.

……

Standing in the corner of the Spirit Plaza, Qian Daoliu glanced at Bibi Dong, then quickly shifted his attention to Tang Shan. Looking at the seven spirit rings of different colors, Qian Daoliu became even more certain of his guess: Tang Shan must be a god inheritor, otherwise how could he have such special spirit ring colors, and that third spirit ring?

Qian Daoliu's brows furrowed slightly as his gaze fell upon the amethyst-like spirit ring. He felt that Tang Shan's seventh spirit ring was not a typical thousand-year spirit ring, and the purple color seemed a bit too translucent. Moreover, having received divine inheritance, the age of the spirit ring should have increased. That golden Behemoth was already close to ten thousand years old, yet its spirit ring was still purple, which felt rather strange.

What if Tang Shan hadn't received the divine inheritance? This thought had barely crossed his mind when Qian Daoliu immediately dismissed it—the color of a spirit ring might be faked, but how could one's own strength be faked? Could you say that Tang Shan got to where he is today entirely on his own strength, without relying on the divine inheritance he received? That's impossible.

It can only be said that the value of the Amethyst Behemoth is still increasing, and its ability to influence spirit rings is simply too strong.

……

On the viewing platform, Ning Fengzhi's expression was complex, and Sword Douluo's expression also underwent a dramatic change for the first time.

Previously, they never had a clear understanding of Tangshan's strength, but now that they do, Ning Fengzhi regrets it even more.

"That, that's Haotian Douluo? How dare Tang Shan fight him!" Ning Rongrong was immediately brought to Ning Fengzhi's side after the three teams received their rewards. Obviously, this decision was absolutely correct, otherwise she would have been very likely to be affected by the aftermath of Tang Shan and Tang Hao's fight.

“Why is it impossible?” Ning Fengzhi sighed. “We should have thought of this long ago. Back then, he could kill a Soul Douluo head-on. Now, he can fight against the Haotian Douluo, who is famous throughout the continent. What’s impossible about that?”

Turning to look at Qian Renxue beside him, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but reveal envy in his eyes, "Qinghe, with Tangshan, Tiandou will be worry-free for two hundred years."

Qian Renxue's lips curled up in a genuine smile as she looked at the towering giant. "I know."

……

"Gu Yue, what should we do?" Tang Hao's attack was too sudden. After a long time, Dugu Yan and Zhu Zhuyun were filled with worry.

"It's alright. A Haotian Douluo can't hurt him. Don't worry. If we encounter any danger, I'll teleport Tang Shan back." Gu Yue said expressionlessly, her eyes fixed on the giant Tang Shan had transformed into, her hands clenching uncontrollably.

If Tang Shan's opponent was only Tang Hao, Gu Yue naturally wouldn't have anything to worry about. But both Tang Shan's words of advice before pushing her away and the somewhat familiar aura emanating from Tang Hao proved one thing to her: this attack involved the intervention of a deity.

If anything happens to you, I'll go to the realm of gods and drag all the gods down with me. His pupils involuntarily turned vertical, and a chill emanated from Gu Yue.

The Asura God, who was sparring with the God of Destruction, couldn't help but shiver. His movements slowed down for a fleeting moment. How could the God of Destruction miss such a golden opportunity? He seized the opportunity and unleashed a destructive divine lightning bolt, blasting the Asura God into a disheveled state.

"Destruction, let's talk this out. If that doesn't work, I'll punish myself with three cups of wine, okay?" The energy fluctuations of the Asura Blood Palace gradually subsided, but the God of Lust's beautiful eyes never left the water mirror, seemingly extremely interested in someone within it.

……

The Shrek Seven Devils and Flander and the others finally managed to hide to the side, letting out a long sigh of relief. The aftershocks of Tang Shan and Haotian Douluo's battle were truly terrifying. The flying debris was manageable, but the terrifying shockwaves and even spatial rifts could have caused them fatal injuries if they weren't careful.

While observing the earth-shattering battle, everyone's eyes were drawn to Xiao Wu, whose face was pale. There were no fools present, and Tang San, Bibi Dong, and Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo's expressions were quite obvious. They knew that the Spirit Hall's target was Xiao Wu. Combining the so-called "100,000-year-old soul beast" and past experiences, some truths naturally surfaced.

Xiao Wu opened her mouth, unsure of where to begin. Tang San gently patted her shoulder, his expression serious: "Xiao Wu, you will always be my sister!"

……

The Shrek Seven Devils fell silent, while the intensity of the battle between Tang Shan and Tang Hao, who had become the focus of the entire arena, began to rise.

Step forward, turn around, and throw a punch!

The air shattered, and the thick arm, like a pillar of heaven, collided violently with the enormous Haotian Hammer.

Boom!

The aftershocks raged, and Tang Shan's body suddenly sank, his footprint instantly sinking into the arena, with dense cracks spreading rapidly outwards from the center of his foot.

Bend over, twist, gather momentum!

Tang Hao half-turned in mid-air, perfectly absorbing the strong recoil from his giant hammer, and then slammed it down fiercely once more.

Stomp on the ground, unleash your power!

The power originates from the sac, passing through each bone segment and surging straight to the spine. The spine seems to come alive, like a resurrected dragon, further amplifying the force.

Another deafening roar followed, space shattered, and the dark cracks swallowed everything, the terrifying suction sweeping away the rubble and dust.

One punch, two punches, three punches...

In every collision, Tang Shan displayed his strength perfectly, but even so, he slowly fell into a disadvantageous position.

In fact, if he had used other soul skills, he could have turned the tide much earlier, but the loosening bottleneck of his will made him hesitate.

He didn't know if this was his only chance in the short term. What did reaching the limit of willpower mean? It meant breaking through the title barrier and directly reaching level ninety-nine.

"Come and fight!" With a sudden sharpness in his eyes, Tang Shan made up his mind, his aura surged, and a loud shout reverberated throughout the Martial Soul Square.

The Haotian Hammer fell straight down with the force of Mount Tai, its tyrannical and domineering power seemingly intent on reducing everything to dust.

With hands clasped together, will, blood, soul power, and spiritual power merged perfectly, and the Heaven-Opening Seal was formed, colliding with it once more.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

With his willpower surging and his mental strength rising, Tang Shan, though consistently at a disadvantage, showed no signs of slowing down but rather increasing his momentum, as if he were about to break through the sky.
