**Chapter 156: Ring Explosion? Unfortunately, I Can Do That Too**
Boom—
After all of Tang Hao's Soul Rings shrunk, they all exploded under his strong control.
A powerful Soul Power suddenly exploded.
The soul pressure formed by this Soul Power caused all of Gu Ziyi's soul skill attacks to be unable to get close to Tang Hao for a while.
The broken Soul Rings in his hands, those fragments of yellow, purple, and black Soul Rings, were quickly transformed into gold.
The time and space around Tang Hao seemed to stop.
Only the golden fragments of the Soul Ring, which appeared to be moving slowly but were actually moving quickly, condensed one by one and eventually formed seven golden Soul Rings that were displayed behind him.
"That's actually a ring explosion!"
"What an intense soul pressure..."
"Is this the explosive ring skill of the Haotian Sect?"
"..."
Seeing the explosive ring that Tang Hao used, the eyes of the Worshipers widened. It was also the first time they saw the legendary explosive ring, which was comparable to a soul skill.
All the Soul Rings were gathered after exploding and turned entirely golden.
The visual effects were incomparable and shocking!
Although the Martial Soul Hall's Research Institute had researched the explosive ring, they hadn't released it yet. Only Gu Ziyi, Qian Daoliu, and people from the research institute knew about this new development.
That's why the Golden Crocodile Douluo and others were so shocked when they saw Tang Hao's explosive ring.
Boom—
When Tang Hao completed the ring explosion, the soul pressure that erupted from his body directly deflected all the attacks that Gu Ziyi used.
However, this powerful impact from the soul pressure didn't last long, just enough to help block the initial attacks.
"Yes, it's a ring explosion!"
"I didn't expect my grandson to actually master my explosive ring."
Only then did Tang Chen respond to Qian Daoliu's question with a smile.
There was a hint of pride in his tone.
There are still things to learn from his grandson.
"It's truly amazing!"
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly and admitted that the explosive ring was indeed powerful.
But how difficult is it to master the ring explosion? That's not necessarily the case!
Their Martial Soul Hall had already researched this topic.
Tang Chen spoke this way because the two sides practiced the Ring Explosion in different ways. The Ring Explosion that Tang Chen mastered might be more difficult to master and requires great talent.
After thinking carefully, Qian Daoliu was able to understand.
After all, the Haotian Sect's explosive ring was developed solely by Tang Chen, so he also researched one that was more suitable for him based on his own physique, which required an extremely high talent to practice.
"Qian Daoliu, do you need me to ask Hao'er to stop?"
At this moment, it was Tang Chen's turn to smile at Qian Daoliu.
"No, it's just a ring explosion. The Holy Son can still handle it!"
After hearing his rival's words, Qian Daoliu smiled slightly.
It's just a ring explosion; it's not like Gu Ziyi doesn't know how to use this ability as well.
He had been looking forward to this moment. When Tang Chen saw Gu Ziyi using the explosive ring, he wouldn't have that smug expression on his face anymore.
"Oh?"
"This kid still has some backup plan?"
When Tang Chen heard his rival, he was immediately surprised.
The fighting power Gu Ziyi had demonstrated so far had surprised him. He hadn't expected the boy to still have hidden methods to use.
And this hidden method must be very strong. Even if it's not as good as the explosive ring, he can still resist the explosive ring once or twice after using it.
That's why Qian Daoliu had said that.
This left Tang Chen a bit curious, so he looked at the boy, wondering how he would handle it later.
"Gu Ziyi, today I'll take back all the humiliation you've inflicted on me!"
"Great Sumeru Hammer!"
After completing the ring explosion, Tang Hao's entire body shone with a golden light, mixed with traces of red lightning.
After roaring at Gu Ziyi in an extremely domineering way, Tang Hao grabbed the Clear Sky Hammer and attacked again.
Boom—
As Tang Hao swung his Clear Sky Hammer, it rose with the wind and eventually transformed into a massive Clear Sky Hammer to strike him.
Even the Worshippers watching the battle were somewhat moved by this attack.
Such an attack is enough to even threaten them.
"It's really something like a soul skill, but with the Soul Sage cultivation level, he can truly have the combat power to defeat a Title Douluo after using the Explosive Ring!"
"Yes, a regular Douluo is no match for him in this state!"
"The Holy Son is in trouble now…"
...
All the Worshippers exclaimed in surprise and, at the same time, grew worried about Gu Ziyi.
"Smelly little brother!"
Bibi Dong was also a bit nervous, but she completely believed that he would be fine.
"Third Soul Skill: Golden Light Talisman!"
"Golden Light Shield!"
Sure enough, Gu Ziyi extended his hand and summoned thousands of Golden Light Talismans again. Then all these talismans transformed into a radiant golden light and merged, finally taking the shape of a massive Golden Light Shield in front of him.
Boom—
As Gu Ziyi completed the Golden Light Shield, Tang Hao's Great Sumeru Hammer, following his attack after the power boost from the ring explosion, struck the massive Golden Light Shield with great force.
Instantly, a huge roar resounded.
Crack~
Crack~
Then the massive Golden Light Shield, dozens of meters in size, began to crack gradually.
Bang—
Finally, the entire shield shattered with a loud crash, turning into golden light that filled the sky and dispersed across the area.
"As expected, is it still too much?"
Gu Ziyi wasn't too surprised to see his defense shattered.
It can only be said that Tang Hao is truly very powerful after using the ring explosion.
Gu Ziyi can still use his Peach Wood Sword to fight against him afterward. Even though the combat effectiveness he exerts may not be as good as Tang Hao's after the ring explosion, there is absolutely no problem in resisting one or two of his attacks.
And as the delay continues, Tang Hao will definitely lose the battle.
Because the battle cannot last long after he uses this ability.
Especially since Tang Hao used the miraculous ability of the Ring Explosion with the cultivation of a Soul Saint, he can't last long in this state!
As long as Gu Ziyi summons the Peach Wood Sword, it will definitely not be a problem to fight him in a fierce stalemate.
It's just that he doesn't want to win in such a dull manner.
So!
"Gu Ziyi, just admit defeat, you can't be my opponent now!"
After Tang Hao broke Gu Ziyi's defense, he was extremely pleased. He then pointed the enormous Clear Sky Hammer at his enemy and pronounced his verdict proudly.
He challenged Gu Ziyi just to defeat him, not to kill him.
Therefore, all that was needed was for his opponent to admit defeat.
Of course, this didn't mean he didn't want to kill Gu Ziyi, it was just that this wasn't the right place for him to be cruel.
"As expected from a ring explosion, it's really powerful!"
"But, unfortunately, I also possess that method!"
Facing the arrogant Tang Hao, Gu Ziyi suddenly laughed.
"What did you say? You can do this too?"
"Hahaha, are you joking?"
"The ring explosion is a secret of our Haotian Sect!"
Hearing Gu Ziyi's words, Tang Hao was slightly surprised for a moment, then burst out laughing.
"What did the Holy Son just say? The Holy Son also has a method for the ring explosion?"
"That can't be possible, right?"
"..."
After hearing Gu Ziyi's words, not only Tang Hao but also the spectators exclaimed in disbelief.
"Qian Daoliu, has your Martial Soul Hall also mastered the ring explosion method?"
Tang Chen was also shocked and looked at his rival with wide eyes.
How is this possible!
He didn't want to believe it.
"If this is true or not, we'll find out later!"
Qian Daoliu just smiled lightly.
He had no objections to Gu Ziyi using the ring explosion in front of his rival.
Now that the Martial Soul Hall had already mastered the method, there was no need to worry about Tang Chen discovering it.
It's not like the Martial Soul Hall stole it from the Haotian Sect, it's just something the Martial Soul Hall studied on its own to perform such a skill.
"..."
After hearing what Qian Daoliu said, Tang Chen was shocked again. This was obviously true!
However, how is this possible?
Tang Chen quickly turned his head and continued looking at Gu Ziyi.
"It's just a ring explosion, it's not a big secret skill!"
Facing Tang Hao's ridicule, Gu Ziyi just smiled lightly.
Buzz—
Everyone saw Gu Ziyi shrink all of his Soul Rings into his body, just as Tang Hao had done moments ago, then condense them into the palm of his right hand.
"This is impossible..."
Seeing his enemy actually performing the same preparation for the ring explosion that he had done, Tang Hao immediately exclaimed in disbelief.
He didn't want to believe that Gu Ziyi could actually master the miraculous ability that had taken him so long to finally master.
"Go to hell!"
Boom—
After the initial shock, Tang Hao acted directly. Regardless of whether Gu Ziyi had really mastered the ring explosion, he didn't want to give him the chance to perform his move.
Boom—
The enormous Clear Sky Hammer, mixed with terrifying red lightning, shot toward his enemy again.
"Bah!"
In the face of Tang Hao's attack, Gu Ziyi snorted dominantly and clenched his right hand tightly.
Boom—
What had just happened to Tang Hao now happened to him as well.
Then it was seen that all seven of the Soul Rings in his palm exploded under Gu Ziyi's strong grip. The broken Soul Rings then gradually turned into gold and finally re-condensed into seven golden Soul Rings for display.
Boom—
The powerful soul pressure that erupted when the rings successfully exploded also deflected Tang Hao's attack, which was considered his retaliation.
"The ring explosion, it's really a ring explosion!"
"Good boy, the Holy Son really mastered this method!"
"The ring explosion is the secret technique of the Clear Sky Hammer, right? It turns out this ability can be used without the Clear Sky Hammer..."
"You'll see if you look closely. It's a secret technique to explode the Soul Rings. It has nothing to do with the Clear Sky Hammer when exploding the rings!"
"It seems we were deceived by Tang Chen earlier..."
"Yes, I always thought this was the secret of Tang Chen's Great Sumeru Hammer..."
"..."
Seeing that Gu Ziyi also successfully used the ring explosion, the uninformed onlookers were excited.
At the same time, everyone understood one thing: they had been deceived by Tang Chen earlier.
The ring explosion is not a soul ability created by the Soul Martial Hall – Clear Sky Hammer.
"The smelly little brother really mastered a powerful ability!"
"Damn, he didn't tell me about this!"
"He'll be in trouble when he comes back!"
Bibi Dong was also very surprised. Although she was happy for Gu Ziyi, she also felt a little embarrassed that he hadn't told her about it, and she was preparing to deal with him when he came back.
"So amazing..."
Qian Renxue, who had been watching the battle between Tang Hao and Gu Ziyi from the outside with her eyes sparkling throughout the fight, felt that both of them were very powerful.
She must become a Soul Master as powerful as they are in the future!
"Incredible, I didn't expect your Martial Soul Hall to really learn my Ring Explosion ability!"
Tang Chen, who was watching the battle at this moment, also expressed his surprise to Qian Daoliu, who was beside him.
Although he was a little shocked, he quickly accepted the fact.
He can create his own ability, and it's normal for others to do so as well.
Especially those who have seen him use this ability.
In the past, he used the mysteries of the Great Sumeru Hammer as his name, which managed to deceive others, but now it seems that he has been discovered.
He didn't react much to it. Even though it had been discovered, so what? The ring explosion itself isn't something everyone can master.
Besides, his Haotian Sect now not only has the explosive rings but also the techniques from the Tang Clan of another world!
That's precisely why Tang Chen didn't lose his composure.
"This is just a ring explosion; it's not really something difficult!"
Seeing that Tang Chen didn't lose his composure, Qian Daoliu was somewhat dissatisfied and then laughed.
"....."
When Tang Chen heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. Although he wasn't losing his composure, hearing his rival speak about the ring explosion with such a euphemism still made him feel somewhat uneasy.
It turns out that the Martial Soul Hall had finally researched the explosive ring, so he couldn't say that what Qian Daoliu said was wrong.
In the end, Tang Chen chose to ignore it and continued to focus on his grandson.
"No..."
"This can't be true…"
"How could you know about this ability..."
The person who had the hardest time accepting the situation was undoubtedly Tang Hao, who was fighting Gu Ziyi.
After seeing his enemy actually use the same explosive ring that he did, Tang Hao truly was unwilling to accept the reality.
Just looking at the scene before him, he knew that even if he didn't want to accept it, he could only reluctantly swallow the truth!
Gu Ziyi had mastered the explosive ring, which he thought was his strongest weapon!
"Nothing is impossible. It's just an ability. Why should only you have it in your hands?"
Seeing Tang Hao's expression, Gu Ziyi was very pleased and then spoke lightly.
"You..."
Hearing the sarcasm from his enemy, Tang Hao nearly exploded in anger.
The incredible ability he had mastered after years of practice was casually dismissed by Gu Ziyi, who immediately defeated him in the argument.
"So what if you can use the same ability as I can?"
"Yours is just a theft and an imitation; the explosive rings from our Haotian Sect are the authentic ones!"
"Great Sumeru Hammer!"
Tang Hao, who had been crushed in the argument, immediately shouted in anger and then grabbed his Clear Sky Hammer to attack Gu Ziyi again.
"Sixth Soul Skill: Thunder Control Talisman!"
Facing Tang Hao's attack, Gu Ziyi simply waved his hand calmly, then countless Thunder Control Talismans condensed.
Boom—
Boom—
Boom—
Then a stream of divine thunder erupted and bombarded Tang Hao, not giving him the chance to approach.
Boom—
Boom—
Boom—
This was also the first time Gu Ziyi had used the attack of his talisman, which was meant to eliminate the enemy in large numbers.
Facing the continuous attacks from his enemy, Tang Hao couldn't get close and could only keep defending himself.
What Tang Hao faced were endless thunderbolts. After using the explosive ring skill, Gu Ziyi's Soul Power seemed infinite.
"Ahhhhh—"
Tang Hao roared with the explosion, and the hairs on his body stood on end, but he just couldn't get close.
With a single blow, he felt like he could defeat his enemy just by hitting him square in the face.
But under the bombardment of countless thunder and lightning, he couldn't even get near Gu Ziyi.
Whoosh—
In the end, after reaching the limit of the skill, Tang Hao finally couldn't hold back. He vomited a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.
Bang—
Finally, he hit the ground hard.
…
(End of chapter)
N/E: My dear readers, I am returning to you with thanks, to say that I have not abandoned you. So I apologize for disappearing, but I had an anxiety attack and another episode of my depression, I was so discouraged with life that I couldn't even sleep properly.
So I apologize, but on the bright side, to make it up to you, I will do double chapters for at least half of the month of February. In addition, I posted the new story that I mentioned to you and opened my Patreon.
How should I proceed now: I thought about posting a single chapter per day for this story and 3 chapters for the other one here on the Webnovel. From there, I will post one or two more chapters on Patreon for this story and three chapters for the other one.
The reason: this story takes a long time to translate, even though I write quickly, it has increased in size compared to the beginning. Now it has over 2500 words per chapter, which takes me an hour to translate properly. I don't like half-baked things, so I always try to edit the chapter as succinctly and coherently as possible.
The new story I'm posting doesn't take as much time, each chapter has an average of 500 words, which makes editing much easier. I hope you can read it and support me in this endeavor.
Financial support: guys, the Patreon I opened currently only has one sponsorship tier, and it may increase later if the need arises, but in theory, if I'm right, if you pay $10, you'll be able to read all the chapters I upload to the platform. I hope that's it. I tried to set it up so that it would be like this, but if you encounter any problems, just leave a comment here or there (I'll create a separate chapter to explain the Patron).
Also, I fixed some mistakes I made in past chapters while I was uploading the chapters on Patreon, some chapters have a lot more lines than before (you will see 'Modified and Remade' in these chapters), I hope you still enjoy reading my translations and can continue to follow me.
