Chapter 295: God Level Angel, First Battle
“You clearly know I’ve already become a god, and you still choose to fight me?”
“So what if it’s human? So what if it’s god? Don’t tell me you don’t know that some things in this world cannot change? There’s a saying you haven’t heard, I’ll teach it to you now.”
“What?”
Qian Renxue’s face was already unsightly.
Tang San went straight to the point, intoning word by word:
“Better—— Broken—— Jade—— Than—— Intact—— Tile——”
“You——”
Qian Renxue’s face twisted, her smile completely obliterated. An indescribable dignity spread from her, and the pressure that hit Tang San actually made him feel like his feet were lifting off the ground. If not for the Seagod Trident, he might have been pushed back.
A hazy golden splendor appeared on the surface of her body like mist. In that instant, she truly became like the focal point of heaven and earth. The feeling like the strength of the universe had fused into one made Tang San feel like Qian Renxue was no longer real. Her body seemed to fill every corner of the space, instead of standing in front of him.
This was the power of gods? Sensing the pressure of the enormous strength of the world, Tang San felt powerless from the depths of his heart. When just the presence produced such enormous pressure, it was clear what level the power of gods reached.
Qian Renxue in front of him was shining all over, seeming as if every motion of hers could encompass everything in the surroundings. The Seagod Trident Tang San held transmitted a scorching heat, as if excitedly thirsting for clashing with the God of Angels. But Tang San also inwardly felt a pang of bitterness. The Seagod Trident was a true divine tool, of course it wouldn’t worry about any opponent. But, as the person holding it, he still hadn’t reached the level of gods.
“Tang San, don’t tell me you believe you can escape from me today?”
Qian Renxue glared at Tang San’s eyes, her ice cold oppressive gaze seeming to shoot into his soul.
Tang San shook his head,
“Don’t tell me you didn’t listen? Better broken jade than intact tile. I’m not thinking about escaping, but even in death, I won’t become someone who bends knee and surrenders. My father once taught me that a man, no matter when, will stand straight.”
While speaking, Tang San stamped the Seagod Trident against the ground. With an explosive sound, the ground cracked within a ten meter range of him, rich and powerful imposing manner mixing with surging fighting spirit, just managing to block Qian Renxue’s omnipresent pressure.
Tang San’s overbearing resolve made Qian Renxue a bit despondent, speaking subconsciously,
“Who asked you do kneel? Don’t tell me you didn’t listen? I only want for you and me to join hands, not to have you serve me.”
Tang San gave a cold laugh,
“What’s the difference between surrender and giving up one’s beliefs? If it was you, would you give up your lover, friends, nation, and everything to serve? I like life, and I also like righteousness. If I cannot keep the two together, I will let life go, and choose righteousness.[1]”
“You……”
The fury in Qian Renxue’s mind was finally truly ignited, and this moment was also when Tang San struck first.
“Watch this!”
With an explosive shout, golden light spread out.
Quoting Mencius let him instantly raise his imposing manner to the peak. Tang San’s left foot suddenly stepped forward, the Seagod Trident stabbing straight towards Qian Renxue’s chest without deviating. At the same time as the Seagod Trident thrust out, the Seagod Trident brand on his forehead was already shooting out a ray of deeply golden light, illuminating the Seagod’s Heart. Golden light instantly radiated, the Seagod’s Power fully surging. It seemed like a simple move, but Tang San but all his strength into it. With the left leg generating strength, explosive strength immediately spread, the powerful energy waves converging on the trident’s blades. A ball of golden light exploded from the tip. The air twisted like water snakes around the Seagod Trident, all the power instantly condensed into a thin line by Tang San’s control.
This attack came when his momentum was at its peak, not a spirit ability yet surpassing spirit abilities. At the same time, the Blue Silver Emperor was released, and simultaneously also the gloriously golden Seagod Trident.
Tang San didn’t know how strong god level powers were, but he understood from Qian Renxue’s presence that this might be his most bitter battle ever. The chance of escaping might not even be ten percent, the only chance was going all out. Therefore, he didn’t hesitate to release all his strength from the start, preparing to stake his life.
“Shaking god as human, do you still not comprehend?”
Qian Renxue simultaneously took a step forward, facing the Seagod Trident’s blades without thought of retreat. Raising her right hand, her palm filled with golden light, directly grabbed the Seagod Trident’s main blade.
Sumptuous golden light instantly radiated. The instant Qian Renxue’s right hand came into contact with that golden light on the Seagod Trident’s main blade, a golden light halo instantly flowed into the palm, turning her hand transparent. Just as if it was made purely from energy.
The Seagod Trident’s golden light seemed to melt together with Qian Renxue’s palm as they met, enveloped by a layer of golden light transformed from the surface of Qian Renxue’s hand. It basically didn’t stand a chance of erupting before it had cut into that golden crystal-like hand holding the Seagod Trident’s main blade.
The thrust of the Seagod Trident was like a giant wave lashing the shore, but Qian Renxue’s hand was like a towering mountain range. The two clashed, and the waves came to a sudden halt. That one hundred eight thousand jin weight, Tang San’s all out burst of spirit power, both instantly stopped, motion turning to quiet. The whole process only took a second, but the Seagod Trident still couldn’t stab forward in the slightest, stopped rigidly by Qian Renxue’s hand.
No energy attacked the Seagod Trident, and Tang San even felt that his Seagod Trident was still brimming with force, but no matter how he tried, he was still unable to move the weapon forward at all. Right now Qian Renxue still hadn’t even released her spirit.
Gap. This word appeared in Tang San’s mind. But the fighting spirit in his heart wasn’t reduced. It would be strange if a god level opponent was easy to deal with.
Golden blue brilliance instantly spread out from below Tang San’s feet like a ring of light, only spreading to the range between him and Qian Renxue. Without a doubt, Tang San’s Blue Silver Domain ability was concentrated into the smallest possible range. Surging golden blue light turned into an enormous gold
en blue pillar that shot towards the sky, terrifying energy waves substantially enlarging Tang San’s imposing manner. The energy pouring into the Seagod Trident also grew geometrically.
But, just as this golden blue pillar shot up, at the same time as the energy within Tang San instantly climbed, there still came an even stronger golden light from within that golden blue. The shape of that golden light was a tiny six winged angel.
“Disperse.”
A clear and cold word spat from Qian Renxue’s lips.
The golden blue pillar almost instantly turned completely golden blue, and then into specks of golden light that condensed together and instantly scattered, just like countless falling stars. And Tang San’s extremely condensed Blue Silver Domain thus disappeared.
Qian Renxue still hadn’t released her spirit. She still seemed to calm, only that little angel brand on her forehead was lit up like the Seagod Trident brand on Tang San’s forehead. Just much brighter.
“My dispersal can scatter any non-god level domain. It’s useless. Tang San, even though I admit your strength grows very quickly, even surpassing my judgement, you are still only human even if your spirit power reaches rank ninety nine. How could you defeat me? This god level weapon is pretty good, but unfortunately, it’s not held by a god.”
“Even if it isn’t held by a god, you still can’t grasp the Seagod’s weapon.”
Tang San roared, his left hand abruptly grabbing the Seagod Trident.
Before today, he had always relied on just his right hand to wield the Seagod Trident, to be able to release other support abilities with his left hand. This was the first time he grasped this divine tool with two hands. Tyrannical energy also burst forth in this instant, and at the same time, a hazy yellow brilliance poured into the Seagod Trident from his left arm.
Qian Renxue only felt the Seagod Trident instantly exert ten times the force of before. Even if she had already become the god of angels, in this moment she could no longer suppress the Seagod Trident. With a shout of alarm, she was flung back by that enormous momentum. At the same time that ball of golden light suppressed in her right hand exploded, the surging golden energy blasting her right hand high up. Even though it couldn’t harm her, it still exposed her chest.
How could Tang San let such a chance slip by? Charging forward, his body became one with the Seagod Trident, dashing quickly. At the same time, a bizarre cyan light instantly rushed into the Seagod Trident from his right arm, making the Seagod Trident’s originally pure golden light turn into a mix of golden, blue and cyan.
Just like a bolt of lightning from clear sky, an incomparably tyrannical three colored lightning bolt shot from the tip of the Seagod Trident, heavily exploding against Qian Renxue’s chest.
Qian Renxue really was too conceited, basically not releasing her god level spirit. After she became the Seraphim god, her confidence had swelled enormously. She had never imagined Tang San could cause her any harm. But, Tang San still suddenly launched such a severe counter attack while under her complete suppression. The Seagod Trident that she had clearly grasped still forcibly broke apart her force.
Qian Renxue’s entire body was pervaded with a layer of golden, blue and cyan colored lightning, flung uncontrollably high into the air. The paralysis made her half unconscious.
However, god level was god level. Tang San’s all out attack with the Seagod Trident and Sky Blue Fading Thunderclap might have turned a Title Douluo to ash by now. The Seagod Trident weighing one million eighty thousand jin with gravity control only managed to push back Qian Renxue, instead of skewering her.
The opponent’s carelessness finally gave Tang San a momentary chance. He understood that, facing a god level power like Qian Renxue, chances were gone faster than they came. With his ability it was nearly impossible to land successive attacks on her. Therefore, in this brief moment in control, Tang San immediately used his strongest attack ability.
Half turning in midair, the Seagod’s Light poured unreservedly into the Seagod Trident, deeply golden light instantly turning this divine tool illusory. The enormous golden energy instantly condensed into one stream, and the next moment the golden light shot out, chasing after Qian Renxue like an illusion. It was the third form of the Golden Thirteen Halberds, One Goes Without Return.
At the same time as he launched this, The Eight Spider Lances on Tang San’s back spit out eight rays of golden light in pursuit of Qian Renxue, like bolts of lightning.
Facing a god level opponent, Tang San also used the god level attacks he was capable of. Under Qian Renxue’s formidable pressure, his current condition had reached an unprecedented peak.
Flying through the air, the shocked Qian Renxue had never expected Tang San to actually be able of such attacks. It naturally wasn’t the Sky Blue Fading Thunderclap that paralysed her, but rather the divine strength drawn by the Seagod Trident. The instant eruption of the one million eighty thousand jin Seagod Trident was infinitely close to god level strength.
Tang San’s follow up attacks couldn’t be called slow, but how could Qian Renxue’s god level reactions be less? Flying through the air, the Angel brand on her forehead was already bright. With a puff sound, six giant wings unfolded from her back. It was also in this instant that the golden wings forcefully scattered the thunder light, and in Qian Renxue’s hand appeared a dazzling golden longsword. The moment the sword appeared, was the moment the Seagod Trident arrived.
Boom—— Qian Renxue flew back once again, the longsword in her hand just wedged between the Seagod Trident’s main blade and side blade. Ever since Tang San learned the first three forms of the Golden Thirteen Halberds, she was the first to block the One Goes Without Return. But everything happened too quickly. Even though her Sword of Angels appeared in time, One Goes Without Return was so overbearing that the golden light still glanced past her sides and cut open the skin on her left arm. Pure golden blood immediately dripped out. Only this true divine tool could harm the god level Qian Renxue.
One god against one man, and the injured one was actually the god. Just this was enough for Tang San to be proud of.
However, Tang San was still serious. The Eight Spider Lances’ eight threads of swallowing light had no effect. Qian Renxue only closed her six wings, defending herself. Eight golden stars brightened on Qian Renxue’s wings, and the eight golden lights shot from the Eight Spider Lances rebounded and scattered in the air.
On only a moment, the Seagod Trident that had instantly reached one million eighty thousand jin weight as well as used the divine ability One Goes Without Return had pushed Qian Renxue a kilometer away, showing how powerful the attack was. Having grown stronger in the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang San had reached a new level, nearly able to show the full might of One Goes Without Return. Unfortunately, right now he didn’t have the strength to continue. Seeing Qian Renxue instantly knocked into the distance, Tang San didn’t hesitate to turn around and swiftly leave, sticking close to the ground. He drilled into the Star Dou Great Forest.
The ocean wave like Seagod’s power infused into her body through the wounds on her shoulders, the pain made Qian Renxue sober up considerably. She knew she had still underestimated this man, this man who could always create miracles. Seeing Tang San disappear into the forest, she still saw no other way. Comprehensively suppressed by the Seagod Trident, she couldn’t release her true god level power, and could only retreat. The entire process actually continued for five seconds. Tang San could actually suppress the god of angels for five seconds. Let alone Qian Renxue herself, nobody would believe it.
Finally, the Seagod Trident lightened, the one million eighty thousand jin weight returned to one hundred eight thousand, the brilliant golden color also faded, once again returning to black. Qian Renxue also came to a stop in midair. Raising the sword of angels, the Seagod Trident fell into her left palm. At the god level, even if one hundred eight thousand jin was very heavy to her, it wasn’t impossible to carry.
“Fine, well done Tang San. However,
now you don’t even have the divine tool, how are you going to contend with me again?”
Qian Renxue looked at the wound on her left shoulder. The pure golden blood had already stopped flowing, and by now she had expelled the Seagod’s divine power from her body. Just as she said before, it wasn’t a god wielding the Seagod Trident.
WIthout worrying about chasing Tang San, Qian Renxue instead examined this dark but exceptionally heavy polearm. Previously, when the Seagod Trident was one million eighty thousand jin, even she couldn’t hold it. Even if she was already a god, the strength of gods still had limits. Back when Tang San first heard about gods, he said that gods are actually still powerful spirit masters, just spirit masters that had stepped into another realm. They weren’t able to control the world. Otherwise the Douluo Continent wouldn’t look the way it did now. One million jin was the extreme limit of gods’ strength. Of course, this was already a quite frightening figure. Back then Bo Saixi had strained to lift the one hundred eight thousand jin Seagod Trident, let alone when it weighed tenfold.
While Qian Renxue looked at the Seagod Trident she held, she suddenly smiled,
“Tang San, oh Tang San. Since you’re also a spirit master cared for by a god, having lost this divine tool, will your god still care for you? Without it, how can you inherit divinity?”
Having already become a god, Qian Renxue of course understood that the Seagod Trident she held was the same as Spirit Hall’s most valuable treasure, the Angelic Raiment. They were both important articles of divinity. Without it, it was impossible for Tang San to inherit the Seagod’s place. Even if she was beaten back by Tang San, Qian Renxue understood that this was just because she was too careless. Tang San’s strength was still far from enough to constitute a threat to her. With her golding the Seagod Trident, Tang San had no chance of becoming a god, and it was naturally also impossible to become a true threat to her, let alone that he couldn’t possible escape her grasp. So what if she let him escape?
