Chapter 176 Xiang Yu's Last-Die Kill with a Sliver of Health! He Severs Tang Hao's Arm!
"First Soul Skill: Fearless Charge!"
"Banners flutter, the fighting spirit never dies!"
Xiang Yu's soul power exploded, and his burly body shot out like an arrow.
With immense force, it charged straight at Tang Hao's earth-shattering attack!
"He's insane! He's absolutely insane!"
All living beings and major powers were completely stunned:
"That was Tang Hao's all-out attack, and he actually wanted to take it head-on with his first spirit ring?!"
The members of the Clear Sky Sect and the Shrek Academy wore mocking expressions on their faces.
"Heh, it's like an ant trying to shake a tree. Tang Hao's attack is enough to crush him into mincemeat!"
The next second, Tang Hao's Great Sumeru Hammer slammed heavily onto Xiang Yu.
"boom--!!!"
The collision of extreme forces instantly ignited the entire arena, and a terrifying energy shockwave spread out in a ring.
A fierce wind howled, whipping up clouds of dust that completely enveloped the entire arena, making it impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face.
"Hahaha, what an overconfident fool!!"
Tang Hao's face lit up with ecstasy, and he laughed loudly, looking up at the sky.
Seeing this, all living beings shook their heads, and discussions arose once more:
"As expected, Tang Hao is still the better player!"
"The Clear Sky Hammer truly lives up to its reputation as the number one weapon spirit in the world!"
"That Xiang Yu is too arrogant, daring to take this on head-on! He's finished now, isn't he?"
"If Xiang Yu hadn't confronted them head-on, perhaps... never mind, it's too late to say anything now!"
The various factions shook their heads helplessly.
Especially the Spirit Hall group, who were well aware of the terrifying power of this attack.
"Damn it, Tang Hao got a huge bargain!"
Bibi Dong gritted her teeth in anger and kept cursing Xiang Yu as a fool.
Hu Liena, who was standing to the side, did not speak, but looked at Ye Han in the main seat.
She believed that the people of Chang'an were not fools, and that Xiang Yu must have a backup plan!
(Do you babies like Hu Liena?)
(If Hu Liena wanted to join Chang'an, would any of the babies object?)
...
But just when almost everyone believed that Xiang Yu was doomed.
"Whoosh—"
Xiang Yu's charge continued, breaking through the dust and heading straight for Tang Hao.
"How is this possible?!"
All living beings in the world were immediately thrown into chaos, and cries of alarm resounded throughout the heavens and earth:
"Xiang Yu isn't dead? He's actually still alive?!"
"My God! He took Tang Hao's full-force attack head-on, and he's still standing?!"
Tang Hao's smile froze instantly, his face filled with disbelief.
"Impossible! How could you possibly withstand that attack?!"
Before he could figure it out, Xiang Yu had already rushed in front of him.
He swung the Overlord Blade with extreme power, slashing it straight at Tang Hao!
Caught off guard, Tang Hao had no time to parry and was struck hard on the shoulder!
"Pfft—!"
"ah!!!"
The crisp sound of flesh and bones shattering, mixed with Tang Hao's cries of pain, echoed throughout the arena.
His shoulder was slashed so badly that it was caved in, a bloody mess, and the stark white bone was clearly visible.
Hot blood gushed out, staining his clothes and the large area of the arena beneath his feet.
"My God!"
All living beings in the world were once again horrified, and discussions arose one after another:
"After withstanding Tang Hao's full-force attack, Xiang Yu still had the strength to counterattack and injure Tang Hao!"
"But Xiang Yu's injuries are extremely severe; he's practically on the verge of death. Can he still fight?!"
"It's hard to say! Kuang Tie was also seriously injured and on the verge of death before, but he still managed to turn the tables and kill him. Maybe Xiang Yu can do it too!"
Tang Hao, upon hearing the discussions of the world, was immediately enraged:
"A crippled body like yours dares to be arrogant in front of me? You think you can turn the world upside down?!"
Before he could finish speaking, he endured the excruciating pain and swung the Haotian Hammer again.
"Haotian Secret Technique - Sky-Piercing Strike!"
The Haotian Hammer surged again, carrying a violent killing intent, and slammed down fiercely towards Xiang Yu.
"Who can rival us!"
Xiang Yu did not dodge or raise his sword to defend himself; instead, he roared to the sky, and his second spirit ring lit up.
"Second Soul Skill - Desperate Measures!"
"Even with only half a broken blade remaining, it still shakes the surging tide of ghosts!"
In an instant, a ring of flames erupted from his body, rapidly sweeping outwards!
Amidst the raging flames, the faint phantom images of tattered banners appeared one after another, releasing an indomitable fighting spirit!
These battle spirits surged into Xiang Yu's body, alleviating his injuries and greatly increasing his resistance and defense!
Tang Hao's momentum was greatly reduced due to the influence of these battle spirits, and his attack power was also significantly weakened!
"boom--!"
In the end, the Haotian Hammer struck Xiang Yu heavily, but only caused him minor flesh wounds!
"This...how is this possible?!"
Tang Hao's eyes widened, his face filled with shock and bewilderment.
All living beings in the world were stunned, watching this scene in disbelief.
Tang Hao's devastating strike only caused Xiang Yu minor flesh wounds?!
How is this any different from his elder brother Tang Xiao's Sky-Piercing Strike? It's like tickling Kuang Tie!
Is the problem with Ling Tian's attack, or with the twin stars of Haotian?
"Slaughtering all in all directions!"
Xiang Yu's voice, brimming with fighting spirit, instantly shattered the astonishment of all living beings in the world.
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Xiang Yu's ninth spirit ring lit up, its red light soaring into the sky.
"Ninth Soul Skill - Overlord Slash!"
"True Overlord Nature!"
Xiang Yu roared, gripped the Overlord Blade tightly with both hands, and raised it high horizontally.
All his soul power was concentrated on the blade, turning it fiery red, like a burning heavenly blade!
He suddenly swung his sword horizontally at Tang Hao, unleashing a fiery blade of energy with the power to tear apart heaven and earth!
This power was even more terrifying than when Tang Hao combined his four moves, causing all living beings in the world to tremble!
"What can a crippled body do to me?!"
Tang Hao ignored it and threw the Haotian Hammer in his hand, smashing it fiercely towards the blade energy.
"clang--!!!"
The moment the blade energy collided with the hammer, a crisp cracking sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth.
"What?! How is that possible?!"
The disdain on Tang Hao's face froze instantly.
All living beings in the world were utterly stunned.
Just because...you're too beautiful...ugh...
This was because Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer was instantly cleaved in two!
But that wasn't all. The blade's momentum was unstoppable, and without the slightest pause, it slashed straight at Tang Hao!
"not good!!"
Tang Hao was so frightened that his soul almost left his body, and he quickly flipped backward to dodge.
He tried to avoid the fatal blow, but he was no match for Xiang Yu's sword energy!
"Pfft—!"
The blade's energy swept across, touching Tang Hao's right arm, and then, without any suspense, severed it.
"Thud—"
The severed arm crashed heavily onto the arena, and a piece of shimmering, tens-of-thousands-year-old soul bone slid out.
"ah--!!!"
Tang Hao let out a heart-wrenching cry of pain and collapsed heavily to the ground.
He clutched his bleeding severed arm, his face ashen, his eyes filled with despair and resentment.
Xiang Yu looked down at him from his high vantage point and sneered:
"The consequences of being my enemy!"
As is widely known.
In the original novel, Tang Hao possesses two soul bones inherited from his sect, one in his right arm and one in his left leg.
After he severed ties with the Haotian Sect and returned it to the sect, his cultivation level plummeted from level 95 to level 75.
Based on the current setting that the higher the level of a Soul Master, the greater the difference in their Soul Power level, the more likely they are to fall into a higher category.
At this moment, having lost the soul bone of his right arm, his soul power level instantly plummeted to level eighty-nine!
A drop of six levels—that's the amount of soul power an ordinary Title Douluo would accumulate over at least a decade of cultivation!
Such a dramatic fall from grace would be enough to send a once-powerful Title Douluo plummeting from the clouds to the mire!
At this moment, the entire Douluo Continent!
Silence! Utter silence! Deathly silence!
Apart from Tang Hao's screams, there was no other sound!
All living beings in the world were stunned by what they saw!
No one could have imagined that Xiang Yu would not only turn the tables instantly but also sever Tang Hao's arm!
Unless Tang Hao has the ability to take him back, he is destined to be a cripple for the rest of his life!
