Chapter 292: Tang San Hunts the Human-Faced Demon Spider Again (Part 2)
Tang San walked forward.
Dugu Feng and Dugu Shuo stood beside Dream Divine Machine.
Dream Divine Machine quietly raised eight soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and four black.
A layer of black velvet appeared on his body, shining and dense, making him look like a black man.
Only his eyes emitted orange-blue light.
At the same time, a silent ripple spread outward, covering an area of several li.
Dugu Feng sensed with spirit power that the ripple covered all around the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
Then, the ripple probed deep underground, continuing downward and reaching deeply.
This was Dream Divine Machine's Black Demon Dream.
"The evil Soul Master once appeared by using earth concealment. Even if he emerges from underground this time, he will fall directly into my dream!" Dream Divine Machine said confidently.
"Hey, Dugu classmate, your spirit power is strong!" Dream Divine Machine suddenly praised.
He noticed Dugu Feng probing—in spirit power far stronger than ordinary Soul Emperors.
"Senior, this is my Bi-ling Snake Martial Soul's innate skill, Bi-ling Venom, a spiritual poison that can be seen as venomous spirit power. Our clan has discovered it as a way to cultivate spirit power!" Dugu Feng explained.
"Wow!" Dream Divine Machine clicked, surprised the Dugu clan even applied poison to spirit power.
"Senior, with such a grave situation, I doubt the evil Soul Master will show up!" Dugu Feng sighed.
He indeed did not plan to appear.
Whether Tang San's sixth soul ring produced an external spirit bone or not, he would not act.
He was no fool.
With Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo present, and with the Jade Dragon Snake's speed, could anyone outpace Sword Douluo's blade?
If he appeared, facing Sword Douluo's ultimate swordlight would at least severely injure him, and his Jade Dragon Snake's identity would inevitably be revealed.
Thus, Dugu Feng chose to remain hidden.
He wanted to see if Tang San would again summon an external spirit bone.
"No matter. Slaying the evil Soul Master is Spirit Hall's duty. It's better if he does not appear.
We only need to guarantee Tang San's safety!" Dream Divine Machine said casually.
As a genius, Tang San's involvement was key to Dream Divine Machine's commitment.
Spirit Hall's growing power was visible to all; only a powerhouse like Tang San with twin Martial Souls could resist Spirit Hall and ensure Tiandou's safety.
As they communicated, Tang San had already begun fighting the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
This spider was twenty-six thousand years old.
Its body was millstone-sized, eyes shimmering with purple light, eight spider legs covered in fine hairs.
It was agile; both its web binding and spider leg attacks were strong.
But how could it compare to Tang San?
Like last time, Tang San first enraged the spider.
Then he dispelled three web bindings.
Finally, he brought out his Clear Sky Hammer to clash head-on.
The only difference: Tang San would no longer use hidden weapons.
He aimed to defeat the spider with his hammer face-to-face.
The Clear Sky Hammer bore no soul rings, yet weighed five hundred pounds.
Tang San wielded it with exceptional skill.
By now, he had trained under the waterfall for two years and, lacking experience in Slaughter City, had studied Clear Sky Sect's hammer techniques—Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.
His weapon mastery already showed distinctive style.
This surprised Dugu Feng.
The Clear Sky Sect's hammer techniques were strong, honed over generations.
Tang Chen could defeat Qian Daoliu; Tang Hao could defeat Qian Xunji—proof enough.
Yet after Tang San became a god, he was no match for Bibi Dong.
The cause lay in none of their paths reaching perfection.
Tang San had no life attribute comprehension in Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul.
His Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul rarely used ring-breaking moves.
His Sea God skills were even more irrelevant; he showed no oceanic attribute.
But due to his plan, Tang San couldn't train in Slaughter City and instead practiced Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, mastering hammer techniques further.
At least from Dugu Feng's perspective, his hammer skills surpassed most weapon soul users.
"Little scoundrel has a strong foundation—from previous cultivation of Xuantian Skill, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Tang Clan hidden weapons; in this life, trained from youth.
If he focuses, he can improve quickly!
Alas, twin Martial Souls are both his blessing and curse.
Now obsessed with the Human-Faced Demon Spider's external spirit bones; greediness leads to failure!"
Dugu Feng sneered inwardly.
Tang San disagreed, happily using the Clear Sky Hammer to block the spider's spider leg attacks.
The spider's eight legs moved like phantoms, making its moves blurred.
But Tang San's hammer was faster, agile and unlike a heavy weapon.
He used all hammer skills—Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, even Sky Breaking Strike.
Years of practice under Tang Xiao and Tang Hao's urging made him equal to any Clear Sky Sect Soul Master.
The two fought fiercely, sparks flying amid a quiet forest.
The clang of metal rang clear.
Dugu Feng glanced at Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, and Yu Xiaogang.
He saw relief and joy on their faces.
They were very satisfied with Tang San's power.
This was the Clear Sky Hammer without attached soul rings.
In the future, if soul rings of tens or hundreds of thousands of years were added, the hammer's power would be enough to strike any enemy dead on the spot.
Tang Hao was most excited.
His own single hundred-thousand-year soul ring boosted power greatly.
How strong would his son become?
He dared not imagine.
His son was guaranteed to have a hundred-thousand-year soul ring.
"Xiao San, you love Xiao Wu and she loves you. You are a perfect pair.
Just like me and Ayin—we passed every test and she's with me forever.
Xiao San, you two should be together forever.
Then Xiao Wu will never leave, you will have a hundred-thousand-year soul ring, and you will surpass your grandfather to become the new invincible of the continent!"
Tang Hao's eyes burned with madness; his son was getting closer to his goal.
Bang!
After a long moment, a heavy strike landed.
The Human-Faced Demon Spider collapsed, unable to rise.
Closer inspection revealed cracks along its legs and a deformed human face on its abdomen.
Tang San won and was about to absorb the soul ring.
