The evenly matched stalemate lasted only a brief moment before the Angel Holy Sword began to be slowly forced back, falling into a disadvantage.
Feeling the terrifying power transmitted from Tang San's sword, as well as the divine position suppression that was not severe but undeniably real, Qian Renxue raised her estimation of Tang San to its peak.
Is this the power of a top-tier Deity? It is truly astonishing!
The divine power of the Shura God, which firmly suppressed the Angel God, caused Qian Renxue's previously somewhat drifting mindset to return to solid ground.
Tang San, experiencing his first divine battle, felt increasingly excited upon seeing that he had suppressed his opponent in their first exchange. The contrast in power made it feel even more wonderful. Tang San glanced at the exceptionally dazzling golden Tenth Spirit Ring on Qian Renxue's body and said with a calm smile.
"So the Angel God, famed across the continent, is only at this level? It is truly disappointing!"
Tang San spoke with mockery, and Qian Renxue naturally would not be polite, immediately biting back.
"It is rumored that the strongest deity in the God Realm is Shura, yet your performance now also makes me feel that the reputation is unearned. Is it that the Shura God is only at this level, or is it that you, his successor, are incompetent?"
Hearing this, the expression on Tang San's face stiffened; he could no longer smile. Qian Renxue had accidentally hit the truth! His foundation was insufficient, the Shura inheritance he received was incomplete, and he did not even possess the inherited Super Artifact. This had always been a point of concern for him, and having Qian Renxue state it so directly made Tang San, who had always held himself in high regard, feel quite irritated. Tang San suppressed his anger and changed the subject.
"I hope you can remain this relaxed when you are defeated by my sword later."
Qian Renxue let out a cold snort.
"We don't know who will be defeated yet!"
As she spoke, realizing that her raw strength was inferior to Tang San's, Qian Renxue stopped forcing a direct confrontation and immediately changed her tactics.
As their swords locked, holy light shone on her knee guards, and she delivered a sudden Holy Light Sky Support Peak, striking directly at Tang San's waist and abdomen. Tang San did not panic in the face of Qian Renxue's abrupt knee strike; he pulled his hands downward, and the hilt of the Shura Silver Emperor Sword collided directly with the holy light knee strike.
Bang—
Angel divine power and Shura demonic energy collided, exploding into a circle of crimson-gold ripples in the air.
Although the strike did not succeed, Tang San's frontal pressure was inevitably relaxed. Qian Renxue exerted force through the Angel Holy Sword in her hand, and the two immediately flew backward, separating once again.
The Angel God was a deity of the sky, and aerial combat was her forte. If the Eight Spider Lances were still there, relying on the eight wings after the god equipment transformation, Tang San might have been able to compete with Qian Renxue in aerial agility, but that was certainly not possible now. Qian Renxue used her Angel Six Wings to stabilize her figure first, then launched another offensive.
Angel Light Slash!
Qian Renxue whispered to herself, pointing the Angel Holy Sword forward. The patterns across her entire Angel God Equipment erupted with intense light simultaneously. With Qian Renxue's body as the center, everything within a five-meter radius vanished into golden flames. All energy instantly condensed onto the blade, and as Qian Renxue flicked her wrist, four golden sword beams flew out, crossing in the air to form the character for "rice," striking toward Tang San. By the time Tang San stabilized his figure, the light had already reached his eyes.
Facing the "rice"-shaped strike, Tang San's response was simple: he swept his heavy sword horizontally, and a shocking sword energy a hundred meters long was instantly unleashed, cutting the Angel Light Slash in two before continuing toward Qian Renxue.
Facing this terrifying sword energy that spanned in all directions, Qian Renxue's mood sank slightly. Although she had not expected to defeat her enemy in one blow, she had thought she could catch Tang San off guard. Now that Tang San had extinguished her attack with a casual swing, it seemed the suppression of Shura over Angel was even stronger than she had anticipated!
Qian Renxue's six wings moved slightly, and she ascended to dodge the sword energy, but the cold killing intent above her head arrived once again.
"Exterminate!"
A chant sounded from above, and a brilliant blood-red light erupted instantly. The moment Qian Renxue raised the Angel Holy Sword to block, she once again experienced the tyranny of the Shura Killing Intent.
Boom—
The blood-colored sword beam struck the center of Qian Renxue's Angel Holy Sword, directly suppressing the Angel Holy Light, and Qian Renxue was sent flying backward like a golden meteor.
In battles at their level, a momentary mistake could lead to a reversal of the situation. This was true for Qian Renxue's rapid change of moves earlier, and it was equally true for Tang San's pursuit now.
Having struck the Angel down with one sword, Tang San did not stop his attack and continued to press forward. He pointed the Shura Silver Emperor Sword at Qian Renxue, and four cold words spilled from his lips.
"Shura, Judgment."
As the enforcer, the Shura God had the ability to judge the vast majority of deities; even though the Angel God also possessed the power of judgment, she could not avoid it. A total of six red beams fell directly onto Qian Renxue, blooming like flowers. However, for Qian Renxue, it was not beautiful at all; her Angel Protective Divine Light melted rapidly under this light of judgment, like ice encountering a raging fire.
"Use the Light of Judgment! Quickly!"
Seeing that Qian Renxue was about to fall into danger before she had exchanged many moves with Tang San, Bibi Dong could no longer afford to observe Tang San's combat power and immediately called out a reminder.
Qian Renxue did not hesitate and immediately activated the Angel Judgment power. A massive golden Angel Phantom, identical to Qian Renxue, emerged from behind her. The Angel Holy Sword was raised high, and a massive golden pillar of light, condensed from the judgment light released by the sun, descended from the sky and landed on Qian Renxue.
As both were powers of judgment, the Shura Divine Light finally lost its unstoppable ferocity when it encountered the Holy Fire of Light, and its offensive momentum was finally held in check. Qian Renxue breathed a sigh of relief; she had almost capsized. If Tang San did not pursue, she could have dispelled the Shura Judgment in two more breaths, but how could he not pursue?
Seeing his signature divine skill blocked, Tang San's expression turned gloomy. If he had inherited the complete divine position, even the Angel Judgment would not have been able to stop him! That bastard Yun Ming truly deserved to die! Destroying his Martial Soul and stealing his divine sword—he deserved to die a thousand times over!!
While cursing Yun Mouren in his heart, Tang San pursued with his sword, but the third deity on the scene blocked him.
Rakshasa divine power surged, and Bibi Dong swayed her body. Amidst the flashing purple light, two identical bodies appeared in mid-air. Purple-black air currents spread out, obscuring the light of the morning sun and causing the entire sky to darken in that instant.
The two figures instantly brought with them two long purple shadows, and an overwhelming evil aura surged from bottom to top, rushing out and enveloping Tang San's body. The massive evil aura seemed as if it wanted to swallow Tang San completely.
Bibi Dong joined the battle!
The Rakshasa Demon Scythes in the hands of the two figures were raised and slashed in a crisscross pattern. Although they lacked the peerless sharpness that could cut the heavens and earth, the sickly green, twisted color on the blades and the thin black lines left in the air (space tears that could not heal for a long time) made Tang San feel even more dangerous.
Space Tear Abyss Slash! A space-attribute skill; this Ninth Soul Skill of Bibi Dong's was already one of her strongest attack skills, and its power was unfathomable after she became a deity.
Tang San had no choice but to swing his sword to block. The Shura Silver Emperor Sword struck directly at the center of the two scythes.
The sickly green flames on the Rakshasa Demon Scythes dimmed slightly. The moment this green color came into contact with the Shura sword energy, it seemed as if thousands of wronged souls were wailing in mid-air.
Boom—
Seeing this, Bibi Dong did not dare to force it and immediately detonated the divine power on the scythes to force Tang San back.
Attribute suppression was truly unsolvable. However, compared to the original timeline, where encountering it felt like being crippled, this was already much stronger.
Since melee combat was disadvantageous, she would use long-range attacks.
"Go!" The two figures of Bibi Dong let out a long cry. The eight scythes behind each of them merged with the scythes in their hands, transforming into two Rakshasa Demon Scythes that were entirely black-purple and swirled with countless demonic patterns. They flew out of her hands, slashing directly toward Tang San.
Ding ding—
Tang San saw Bibi Dong attacking in such a panic and felt disdain in his heart, thinking she had held a high position for too long and her combat instincts had dulled, leading her to act recklessly. He casually swung his heavy sword to knock away the two scythes, even offering a contemptuous assessment.
"Stupid."
"Indeed," Bibi Dong replied with a slight curl of her lips. She then moved her hands gently.
Before Tang San could ask, the sound of air being torn apart from far to near gave him the answer. Watching the two flying wheels hurtling toward him through the air, Tang San felt a stinging sensation on his face; he hadn't expected her to be able to control the scythes! But with the Scythe Wheels closing in, he had to block the blades first!
Clang, clang, clang, clang.
One sword against two blades, the exchange was fierce, and sparks flew constantly around Tang San. Just as Tang San was entangled with the Rakshasa Demon Scythe, Qian Renxue also managed to break free from the Shura, Judgment.
Big Sister Xue was furious, and the consequences were dire!
Golden-red light erupted from Qian Renxue's god armor, and Holy Light shone for ten thousand miles. The resentment in the sky dissipated, sunlight bathed the earth, and the terrifying Sun True Fire was channeled down by Qian Renxue, merging into the Angel Holy Sword.
"Again!"
With a sharp cry, Qian Renxue performed the Merge technique, fusing her body with the Angel Holy Sword and transforming into a massive golden blade to charge at Tang San once more.
