Douluo Continent: I Have No Thieves Under Heaven, the Explosive King Returns

Chapter 40: Stirring Up the Flames, Haotian and Titans Engage in a Deadly Battle
"Roar, humans, die!"

"Hmph, a beast is a beast, it doesn't know any manners at all! Then let me teach you a lesson and show you what strength is!"

The Titan Ape has never had any goodwill towards humans, and now is a crucial moment for Xiao Wu to condense her spirit rings.

It absolutely does not allow anyone to disturb it.

After six years, Tang Hao's strength had almost fully recovered, and he was itching to get back to work.

Two figures, one large and one small, clashed fiercely in the forest, the aftershocks of their battle snapping a towering ancient tree in half.

The thief-free world hides in the distance, struggling to cope with the raging wind.

Watching the two figures engaged in a fierce battle on the battlefield, he secretly clenched his fists.

Is this what a battle at the Title Douluo level is like?
This is definitely not something I can get involved in now.

However, I believe that with my talent, surpassing them is only a matter of time.

Suddenly, Tianxia Wuzei sensed two furtive figures approaching from behind.

He turned around helplessly and saw two familiar figures behind him.

"Second brother, third brother? What are you doing here?!"

When the traitors realized they had been discovered, they said sheepishly, "Well, boss, you haven't been back for so long, we were worried about you, so we came to check on you."

"That's right. But I didn't expect that a Title Douluo would actually fight a Titan Giant Ape." The traitor quickly chimed in.

Although they claimed to be looking for a place without thieves, they actually just wanted to get closer and see what was going on here.

The thief sighed and glared at them, saying, "Go back! If anything happens, none of us will be able to leave!"

One of the purposes of sending them out for training is to cultivate their awareness of danger.

Now, if someone dares to hide in the shadows and spy on the battle between the Title Douluo and the Titan Giant Ape, what's the difference between that and courting death?
The traitor curled his lip and said, "Boss, aren't you here too?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Tianxiawuzei punched him on the head in a bad mood.

"How can that be the same? I guarantee I can run a short distance, can you guys?!"

The traitors and those who recognized the enemy as their father whistled and pretended not to hear.

The thief, speechless, waved his hand and said, "Alright, move away a bit. Even if you get spotted, you'll be a few steps faster."

"Hehe, boss, we got it."

The traitors and those who recognized the enemy as their fathers, having achieved their goal, obediently retreated several hundred meters, staring wide-eyed at the battlefield.

The thieves ignored them, knowing nothing would happen.

After all, Lion Douluo, Thousand-Pound Douluo, and Demon-Slaying Douluo are all watching from the shadows, so nothing irreversible will happen.

He immediately focused his gaze on the battlefield; a battle between a Title Douluo and a 100,000-year-old soul beast was a rare sight.

Tang Hao stood in mid-air, his Haotian Hammer creating afterimages with each strike accompanied by a booming sound.

The Titan Ape isn't flashy; its fists are its weapons—it swings, slams, and smashes.

The clash between the fist and the hammer produced a deafening roar, and invisible shockwaves swept outwards, even dispersing the thick clouds in the sky.

Despite the impressive scale of the operation, "No Thieves Under Heaven" raised an eyebrow slightly.

Tang Hao is a level 95 Title Douluo, and the Titan Giant Ape's strength is also equivalent to a level 95 Title Douluo.

However, their actual combat strength is actually a level above that of a level 95 Title Douluo.

If they don't use their trump cards, they could fight for a whole day.

This is not the outcome that "No Thieves Under Heaven" wants to see. Tang Hao and the Titan Ape must fight to the death.

His eyes darted around, and suddenly a brilliant idea flashed in his mind.

Since the Titan Ape is here, Xiao Wu must be nearby as well.

Given its licking beast nature, it would be impossible for it to let Xiao Wu condense her soul ring alone in the forest.

As long as I pretend to be Tang Hao's partner and make a move against Xiao Wu, the Titan Giant Ape will definitely go crazy!

In just a moment, Tianxia Wuzei made up his mind.

He immediately closed his eyes and unleashed his full power to envelop the forest with his wind domain.

Because of the appearance of the Titan Ape, there are no other soul beasts left here.

Therefore, searching for Xiao Wu was not a difficult task.

Sure enough, the Thieves quickly found Xiao Wu in a cave where she was forming her third soul ring.

"Now, let me add fuel to the fire in your battle!"

He used the Wind Seal - Teleportation to move himself to the vicinity of Xiaowu Cave.

They also left behind stones marked with the Wind Seal to facilitate their escape after starting the fire.

A cold glint flashed in Tianxia Wuzei's eyes, and he suddenly raised his right arm, the lion's head menacingly aimed at the cave where Xiaowu was hiding.

Suddenly, the surrounding air began to tremble violently.

Wisps of azure energy surged wildly into the lion's mouth like rivers flowing into the sea, causing the patterns on the lion's head to light up with azure light, as if a ferocious beast was about to awaken. "Explosive Lightning Cannon!"

"boom!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the lion suddenly spat out an extremely dazzling cyan beam of light from its mouth, tearing the air in all directions and creating distorted ripples.

The light cannon blasted towards the cave with the force of thunder, producing a thunderous roar the instant it hit the rock wall.

The cave trembled violently, and the shockwave from the explosion caused jagged cracks to appear on the cave walls.

Gravel flew everywhere like a torrential rain, and dust billowed into the sky.

Xiao Wu, who was about to complete the formation of her third spirit ring, was forced to stop, but it was too late when she tried to dodge.

He let out a scream and was buried under the rubble from the collapse.

Without the slightest hesitation, Tianxia Wuzei activated the Wind Seal - Shifting Position with all his might.

With a whoosh, it disappeared from its original spot and returned to its original location.

Although the sound of the cave explosion was much quieter than the sounds of Tang Hao and the Titan Giant Ape's battle, the Titan Giant Ape kept a close eye on the cave where Xiao Wu was.

Now that something has happened there, it naturally discovers it immediately.

"Roar, you despicable human, I'll tear you apart!"

The Titan Ape, unable to sense Xiao Wu's presence, instantly flew into a rage. Its black fur stood on end like needles, and a violent aura swept outwards.

Tang Hao's body suddenly sank, and his movements were hindered.

"What?! This beast actually possesses such abilities?!"

Upon closer inspection, the trees within a hundred meters of the Titan Ape were crackling and sputtering under the weight of the fallen branches.

"This is the Titan Ape's innate soul skill, Gravity Control Domain! Seeing this licking beast, it has finally become enraged! It was worth the risk I took to start this fire!"

Looking up, I saw that the Titan Ape had already assumed an attack stance.

"boom!"

The earth suddenly cracked open!

The Titan Ape's mountain-like body transformed into a bolt of black lightning, tearing through the air and shooting out.

"boom!"

The hundred-meter distance was covered in an instant. The muscles in the Titan Ape's right arm tightened like steel cables, and the entire arm was stretched into a giant bow full of power.

Wherever the fist passed, the space twisted and rippled with visible force, blasting towards Tang Hao in mid-air with immense power!

Under the suppression of this gravity field, even a titled Douluo's body felt as if it were stuck in a quagmire.

Tang Hao's pupils shrank sharply. There was no way to avoid it. Seeing the earth-shattering fist shadow approaching, he had no choice but to summon Haotian's true form.

A crimson light shot into the sky, and the enormous phantom of the Haotian Hammer suddenly solidified.

The moment the hammer and the fist collided, a dazzling energy halo exploded between heaven and earth!

"boom!"

Amidst the deafening explosion, a terrifying shockwave spread out in a spherical shape.

The ground below churned like ocean waves, large swaths of soil were ripped up, and ancient trees within a kilometer radius snapped in the aftershocks!
However, this evenly matched stalemate lasted only a moment.

The Titan Ape's fist, capable of splitting mountains and shattering the earth, unleashed power far beyond imagination when combined with terrifying speed.

Suddenly, its muscular arm jerked violently, and Haotian's true form was released from its grasp.

"boom!"

The mountain-like fist slammed solidly into Tang Hao, who felt himself being pushed back rapidly.

His body shot towards the forest at an angle like a meteorite, crashing through dozens of towering ancient trees and embedding itself deeply into the earth.

A jagged ravine stretching for a kilometer has been torn open in the forest, and uprooted tree roots can still be seen in the churned soil.

Without even glancing at the spoils of war, the Titan Ape turned and charged toward the cave where Xiao Wu was.

But just as it lifted its foot...

"Boom!"

A blinding flash of blood suddenly erupted from the deep ravine!
The dust was dispersed by a violent killing intent, and Tang Hao's figure slowly rose within the blood-red domain.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, but the killing intent in his eyes was more intense than ever.

"You beast, where do you think you're going!"

The God of Slaughter Domain suddenly erupted, turning the vegetation within a thousand meters crimson.

Watching from afar, Wu Zetian licked his lips excitedly, revealing a satisfied smile.

"That's it! Beat them all to death!"
