Danzun War God

Chapter Thirty-Five: Water Spirit Orb

Han Qi's return has not been made public. After arranging family affairs, he plans to find out news about the Demon Realm and the Underworld, and he also needs to speed up his search for the Five Elemental Pearls.

That night, Han Qi was in deep meditation when suddenly a violent roar erupted. He stirred slightly, immediately withdrawing his profound energy and stepping outside. He saw a group of figures fighting above the Han family compound. Under the bright moonlight, Han Qi discovered that the Han family guards were besieging Lu Hongsheng. Clearly, they were no match for Lu Hongsheng; after a single exchange, they were all sent flying. Han Qi immediately rose and rushed over. He saw Lu Hongsheng's face contorted with rage, his eyes flashing with murderous intent, shouting, "Boy, you've come at the right time! You dared to injure me? This time, I'll kill you!"

Han Qi immediately realized that the ghoul was controlling Lu Hongsheng's body, and he secretly thought something was wrong!

The guards were all very surprised to see Han Qi appear. The young master, who hadn't been seen for over a year, had suddenly appeared at this crucial moment, and his cultivation had even reached the Tribulation Manifestation Realm. At this moment, everyone looked at the two people in the air with a mixture of surprise and joy.

Han Qi dared not be negligent. He immediately condensed a stream of profound energy to protect his body. Then, with a flick of his hand, a fiery palm print appeared out of thin air and rushed towards Lu Hongsheng. Lu Hongsheng snorted coldly and casually unleashed a palm print of profound energy. The two palm prints collided, instantly causing a huge explosion and a strong shockwave. The two of them were instantly sent flying several feet backward.

Han Qi unleashed the full power of his Blazing Palm with this strike, yet he only managed a draw against Lu Hongsheng. Lu Hongsheng said disdainfully, "I didn't expect that I underestimated you. You do have some skills, but you're still a bit green in front of me."

Han Qi knew that the difference in their cultivation levels was too great. Although the ghoul's primordial spirit controlled Lu Hongsheng's body, which reduced the power of Lu Hongsheng's King Realm, he was still no match for Lu Hongsheng.

At this moment, Lu Hongsheng wore a wicked smile, his palm forming a huge vortex of profound energy. He slowly said, "Boy, let me show you my spatial locking technique." As he spoke, the vortex of profound energy enveloped Han Qi.

Han Qi was instantly frozen in mid-air. Lu Hongsheng, laughing wildly, pressed forward, his right hand transforming a stream of profound energy into a large blade that slashed down at Han Qi. This attack was unavoidable, and Han Qi was filled with despair; it seemed he was destined to die here today.

In a flash, a dark shadow rushed forward like lightning. Startled, Lu Hongsheng retreated several feet. What he saw was a giant wave charging towards him, its jagged fangs gleaming coldly in the moonlight. Several hungry wolves pounced on their prey, bursts of profound energy shooting from their mouths. Lu Hongsheng was caught off guard and could only dodge rapidly. At this moment, the Lone Star of Sirius shone brightly in the night sky, rivaling the moon in brilliance. The Lone Star of Sirius further awakened the wolfish instincts within Chen Wei, making his wolfish fighting power exceptionally formidable.

At this moment, many people in Muyun City were also startled by the sounds of fighting and came out to watch. Even the patriarch of the Lin family, who had been in seclusion for more than two years, was disturbed. He squinted at the giant wolf and muttered, "Could this be the legendary ancient Sirius? No wonder Sirius is so bright. My old friend, the Void Daoist, once said: 'When the lone star is near, Sirius awakens, the God of War appears, demons weep, ghosts mourn, exorcising demons and sealing ghosts brings peace to the world.' This is just the beginning. I'm afraid I won't live to see it."

In that brief moment, Han Qi's spatial lock was released, and he immediately transformed into a streak of light and rushed forward. Two golden beams of light shot out from Han Qi's eyes. Lu Hongsheng was slightly startled and also used his primordial spirit power to shoot out two light purple beams. The golden and purple beams intersected, and the primordial spirits of both men were shaken at the same time, both suffering damage to varying degrees. However, the ghoul primordial spirit in Lu Hongsheng's life palace appeared relatively weak. Just as his movements froze, Han Qi activated the Fire Spirit Orb, and a beam of fire entered Lu Hongsheng's life palace.

The ghoul's spirit's expression changed drastically upon seeing the firelight. Due to its extremely weak body, it was unable to escape. It knelt down and begged for mercy, saying, "Han Qi, please don't kill me. I'll tell you a secret about the Water Spirit Orb."

Upon hearing this, Han Qi immediately extinguished the flames and used his primordial spirit power to speak to the ghoul: "How did you know I needed the Water Spirit Orb?"

The ghoul breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed his guess was correct; Han Qi was indeed the reincarnation of the Pill Master War God. He then said, "If I'm not mistaken, you are the reincarnation of the Pill Master War God that the Underworld King spoke of. As long as you don't kill me, I'll tell you the whereabouts of the Water Spirit Orb."

Han Qi was startled. It seemed that the Underworld was preventing him from collecting the Five Elemental Pearls. If the Underworld knew that he was the reincarnation of the Pill Master War God, the consequences would be unimaginable. He couldn't help but think that this ghoul could not be allowed to live and that he had to find a way to get rid of him. However, he said calmly, "Hehe, go ahead and tell me. As long as you tell the truth, I will not kill you."

Chen Wei, the giant wolf that was about to attack Lu Hongsheng, stopped when he saw the two of them. However, he watched them warily, ready to deliver a fatal blow to Lu Hongsheng at any moment.

The ghoul then spoke up, saying, "I overheard the Demon Gods saying that the Demon Lord's people have retired and the War God of Pill Refinement may have entered the cycle of life and death. They need to guard the Water Spirit Orb closely and have established the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons on Copper Demon Mountain where the Water Spirit Orb is located. I don't know anything else."

No sooner had the ghoul finished speaking than a burst of fire engulfed him. The ghoul screamed in agony, rolled several times on the ground, and then lay still. After the fire subsided, only a pile of ashes remained. This ghoul knew far too much, and moreover, it controlled a body with the cultivation of a King Realm expert. If it were to let the tiger return to the mountain, it probably wouldn't be so lucky next time.

Han Qi withdrew his primordial spirit power, and Lu Hongsheng immediately collapsed. At this moment, Lu Hongsheng's primordial spirit, injured by the ghoul, was hiding deep within his life palace. Without his primordial spirit, Lu Hongsheng became a vegetable. The onlookers were utterly bewildered by Lu Hongsheng's collapse; it was unbelievable that a dignified King Realm cultivator could be defeated by a Tribulation Realm cultivator. Even Lin Jiazu narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Han Qi, thinking to himself, "This kid's primordial spirit is quite special; even a King Realm cultivator is no match for him. His future is limitless." He then flew towards the Lin family.

After seeing Lu Hongsheng fall, the giant wolf that Chen Wei had transformed into left. Members of the Lu family had already reported Lu Hongsheng's actions to Lu Hongtao, the family head. Lu Hongtao, whose cultivation was also at the Tribulation Manifestation Realm, was furious to see his elder brother, a King Realm expert, fall. He flew forward and roared, "Han Qi, you killed my brother! My Lu family will wipe out your entire Han family to avenge my brother!"

"Third brother, stop being rude! I'm fine thanks to Han Qi's help this time." Lu Hongsheng had just regained his senses when he heard Lu Hongtao's words. Despite his weakness, he quickly spoke up to stop Lu Hongtao.

Lu Hongtao was completely dumbfounded. He had clearly seen Han Qi knock him down. He then bowed to Han Qi and said, "Young Master Han, please don't be offended. I didn't understand. Thank you for your help to my elder brother."
