After Xie Yue and Hu Liena completed their fusion, their strength had risen to above level sixty.
Xie Yue was convinced that under such circumstances, Tang San absolutely could not defeat him.
He always remembered the secret mission Pope Bibi Dong had entrusted to them—to kill Tang San during the match.
Right now, Tang San was alone inside the crimson mist, while those outside couldn't see anything happening within. This was the perfect chance to finish him.
Without hesitating, Xie Yue moved. The twin moon blades in his hands slashed forward at extreme speed, heading straight toward Tang San.
Inside the range of Xie Yue and Hu Liena's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Tang San was affected—his spirit power weakened, and his movements slowed.
However, his external spirit bone, the Eight Spider Lances, provided amplification, neutralizing much of Demonic Charm's weakening effect.
Moreover, charm-type effects were completely useless against his Purple Demon Eye.
Thus, even within the red mist, he was far less affected than Xie Yue had anticipated.
After absorbing the second Human-Faced Demon Spider, Tang San's Eight Spider Lances had fully evolved—thicker, tougher, and more resilient than ever.
Its explosive power—both in strength and speed—had become terrifying.
And after fusing, Xie Yue and Hu Liena became a single entity. For Tang San, this was binding themselves into one—he only needed to focus on dealing with one opponent, neither male nor female.
Facing Xie Yue's attack, Tang San remained calm.
His hardened Eight Spider Lances met the strike head-on.
Xie Yue's moon blades were even stronger than Tang San had expected. Every collision left a faint mark on the Spider Lances.
In moments, many of the tiny barbs along the Lances had already been sliced off.
Tang San knew very well that the longer he stayed within this red mist, the worse it would be for him.
With only the Spider Lances, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and a few low-level soul skills, he could not hold out for long.
And the longer this dragged on, the more his teammates outside would be exhausted.
So he needed to both drain Xie Yue's spirit power and quickly find an opening to execute his plan.
Tang San had already noticed that Demonic Charm affected the user as well—otherwise the red mist would have covered the entire arena.
Suddenly, after a violent clash with the Spider Lances, one of Xie Yue's blades suddenly flung outward—straight toward Xiao Wu, who was tangled in battle with Sun Chuantao.
Tang San's eyes sharpened.
He knew exactly how powerful Xie Yue's moon blades were—especially after fusing with Hu Liena.
If Xiao Wu were struck and bled heavily, the aura of a soul beast on her body would leak out. It would absolutely draw Bibi Dong and the Title Douluo's attention. Her true identity would be completely exposed.
"Xiao Wu, be careful!"
At the instant the moon blade was released, Tang San used the recoil from the Spider Lances to blast himself upward like a cannonball.
He rapidly summoned spirit power. Blue Silver Grass surged out, interweaving into a seven-layer Blue Silver Prison, enclosing Xiao Wu tightly.
The red moon blade smashed into the Blue Silver Prison, the vines shattering layer by layer.
But Xie Yue's assault didn't stop.
The other moon blade sliced through the air with a piercing howl, flying at Tang San in midair with lethal force.
Yet Tang San did not panic.
The Clear Sky Hammer formed in his hand, and he swung it fiercely toward the incoming moon blade.
A deafening explosion erupted as the two forces collided.
A shockwave blasted outward. Tang San and Xie Yue were both knocked back.
Tang San tumbled several times in the air before landing steadily.
He noticed that although all seven layers of the Blue Silver Prison had been destroyed, Xiao Wu was already out of danger.
The twin moon blades returned to Xie Yue's hands.
Xie Yue hadn't expected Tang San to hold on this long. The Clear Sky Hammer had actually blocked his strongest fused attack.
Tang San's strength far exceeded his expectations.
Xie Yue refused to give Tang San any chance to breathe.
His figure moved again, preparing an even fiercer assault.
This time, he unleashed his self-created soul skill—Full Moon.
The twin moon blades spun at incredible speed, like two streaks of silver lightning weaving together, eventually merging into a massive white disc.
The disc radiated a chilling aura that pressed straight toward Tang San.
Tang San felt an immense pressure, as though the entire space had been sealed by that white disc.
He knew this strike was no trivial attack. If he failed to block it, escape would be impossible.
But he also knew—this was the best moment to execute his plan.
If he could withstand this attack, the siblings' fusion skill, Demonic Charm, would collapse.
Tang San took a deep breath. Spirit power surged through him as the Eight Spider Lances unfolded. He charged straight at the enormous white disc.
The Spider Lances collided violently with the moon blade disc.
Crackling sounds echoed from within the mist, along with intense fluctuations of spirit power. No one outside could see what was happening.
At this moment, both Bibi Dong's side and Yu Xiaogang's side were tense.
They all knew the battle had reached its climax.
Under the violent impact, cracks began forming on Tang San's Spider Lances—one, two…
Spider legs shattered in the collision, blood staining Tang San's clothes.
Yet Tang San never retreated.
He endured the agony, clenching his teeth.
He could feel Xie Yue's attack power weakening. This was his chance!
When the fourth spider leg finally snapped, Tang San roared, hurling the Clear Sky Hammer with all his might.
The hammer, carrying the totality of his strength, smashed into the giant white disc.
At the moment of impact, a thunderous explosion erupted.
It felt as though the space itself was torn apart. Tang San and Xie Yue were once again blasted away.
The fused form of Xie Yue and Hu Liena split apart under the shock, and the red mist instantly dispersed.
Only then did everyone finally see the battlefield clearly.
Xie Yue was gasping for breath, while Hu Liena's face was deathly pale.
Clearly, the siblings had consumed an enormous amount of spirit power.
Tang San's condition was even more tragic.
Of his eight Spider Lances, only four broken remnants remained. His entire back was drenched in blood, and he was barely standing with the support of the shattered limbs.
Though severely wounded, Tang San's gaze remained unwavering.
"Ge!"
Xiao Wu shouted in anguish, rushing to his side.
The rest of the Shrek team quickly regrouped.
"Third brother, catch!"
Oscar tossed a recovery sausage. Tang San grabbed it and swallowed it whole.
A colorful radiance descended from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, falling upon Tang San.
Directly across from them—
Xu Yu raised his golden scepter, intending to cast support on Xie Yue and Hu Liena. But the moment he circulated his spirit power, his body trembled, and a painful scream burst from his throat.
"Ah—!"
"Xu Yu, stop! Don't use spirit power!"
Yan immediately realized something was wrong and shouted loudly.
The others seemed to have been struck as well.
Tang San's plan had succeeded.
"All of you, sit down! Don't circulate spirit power!"
Yan knew that the toxin of Tang San's Eight Spider Lances was extremely potent. With their current strength, there was no way they could cleanse it with spirit power.
On the contrary, circulating spirit power would only spread the poison faster, worsening their condition.
