Danzun War God

Chapter Seventy Breakthrough

Han Qi's confidence in challenging Zhong Hai, who was a realm higher than him, stemmed from his Saint-level Xuan Meridian and the fact that he had tempered his body to a certain degree through the Five Elements Saint Technique.

The Five Elements Sacred Technique strengthens the physical body far more effectively than body refining. Furthermore, demons are born with the Breaking Core Realm cultivation level, while Han Qi, having progressed from the Body Refining Realm through the Breaking Core Realm, Cave Profound Realm, Condensing Yuan Realm, and Tribulation Manifestation Realm to his current Sacred Infant Realm, has a more solid foundation. Most importantly, Han Qi possesses the Fire Spirit Pearl, whose destructive power far surpasses that of ordinary people.

Soon, a hint of fear appeared in the eyes of the four people in front of him. Han Qi did not press his advantage at this moment. Han Qi remained standing in the punching posture.

The four people in front of them were also stunned. They never expected that Han Qi would glance at them and suddenly use the Mysterious Steps: Chasing Wind Step to attack them again.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Two muffled groans followed, and the two figures flew out like kites with broken strings. Before they even landed, Han Qi moved again, catching up with the two who had been sent flying. He then delivered a series of kicks, sending the two crashing into a large rock in the distance. They rolled down like mud, their chances of survival slim.

Two more companions were taken down before the other two finally came to their senses. Han Qi seemed to be in a bloodthirsty rage and showed no sign of stopping. The two quickly gathered their Xuan Qi and hastily unleashed a palm strike. Two black palm prints instantly rushed towards Han Qi. Han Qi did not dodge but instead charged towards the palm prints, his face full of murderous intent, his eyes red, and his expression extremely ferocious.

The two flames surrounding Han Qi instantly collided with the two palm prints, transforming into two waves of profound energy that disappeared.

Seeing that their first attack had missed, the two men drew their weapons and prepared to launch another attack. However, Han Qi did not give them a chance to strike. Yellow Xuan Qi, empowered by the Fire Spirit Orb, surged into Han Qi's two fists and slammed them directly into their faces. Their faces caved in, and they were sent flying without even uttering a sound. Han Qi then unleashed two more blazing palm prints, blasting the two men into a bloody mess.

Han Qi then closed his eyes and collapsed.

Completely stunned by Han Qi, Qin Wuyang and Tang Siyu rushed forward.

They quickly helped Han Qi sit up, and saw that Han Qi's jaw was clenched and his brows were furrowed into a dark line.

The pale yellow under his skin turned into a pale red.

"His skin is starting to turn red again," Tang Siyu said anxiously, staring at Han Qi's face, because she had seen Han Qi's skin turn red once before.

Indeed, inside Han Qi's body, due to the attack from Zhong Hai's profound energy, the strong impact had exceeded Han Qi's physical limits and threatened his life. His body's instincts once again awakened the activity of the five spiritual essences within Han Qi's body.

At this moment, the profound energy surged through Han Qi's meridians like a wild horse, and the meridians turned into a crystal-clear fiery red. Under the influence of the powerful profound energy, the meridians became much thicker, already as thick as a finger, and now they were even larger.

Han Qi sat on the ground, his body began to heat up and steam began to rise, and his skin became increasingly red. It was clear that his meridians were circulating Xuan Qi at a high speed. Fortunately, the road Qin Wuyang had led him on was relatively remote and there were almost no pedestrians.

Qin Wuyang was speechless with shock, looking at Han Qi with suspicion. He couldn't help but think to himself, "Is Han Qi a monster? Is he about to transform?" Tang Siyu, who had seen it once before, was relatively calm this time. She clearly sensed that Han Qi's condition was more serious than in the illusion, and was even a little worried that he would die from the energy exploding within his body.

Before long, Han Qi had turned into a red person, like a red-hot iron block, and a powerful vortex of profound energy formed around him. The pressure was getting stronger and stronger, and Qin Wuyang and Tang Siyu had to retreat step by step.

Gradually, Han Qi's expression lost its initial ferocity and became calmer, even appearing to be enjoying it.

Suddenly, the sky darkened quickly, making Han Qi stand out even more. Tang Siyu looked up and saw a vortex of dark clouds gathering above Han Qi's head.

"Could it be that Han Qi is about to break through?" Tang Siyu murmured.

"Holy crap, that scared the hell out of me! So he broke through to a higher realm. What kind of evil technique is this guy practicing? I've never heard of it before!" Qin Wuyang exclaimed.

Immediately afterwards, two bright lights streaked across the sky.

"Crack!"

A bolt of lightning struck down from the heavens, instantly sending earth and rocks flying around Han Qi.

Qin Wuyang and Tang Siyu were startled and immediately hid dozens of feet away from Han Qi, watching from a distance.

Immediately afterwards, two more bolts of Heavenly Thunder struck down, their power comparable to the first. Then the swirling black clouds in the sky quieted down, and all that could be heard was the sound of thunder crashing to the ground.

Qin Wuyang and his companion exchanged a glance and quickly ran towards Han Qi. They had only run about ten feet when the black cloud vortex flashed with lightning and struck down with nine heavenly thunderbolts, which were significantly larger than the previous three. The two quickly retreated.

"This guy broke through two levels in a row!" Qin Wuyang exclaimed excitedly.

However, the lightning showed no sign of stopping, striking down nine more times in total. Moreover, its momentum grew stronger and stronger.

Tang Siyu's expression changed from surprise to fear, and finally she burst into tears. She had never seen such a powerful Nine Heavens Thunder before. Let alone nine strikes, even three strikes would probably turn her into dust.

Looking at Qin Wuyang, he remained motionless with his mouth agape and his hands raised in front of his chest, completely stunned by the power of the Xuan Lei.

At this moment, the thunder also startled the imperial city, and many people gathered in this direction. Even the imperial palace dispatched troops to rush over. Such a powerful heavenly tribulation might be the way of heaven preventing the appearance of a monster, plunging the entire imperial city into an atmosphere of unease.

As for Han Qi, his body was no longer red, but had turned black, charred black, and his upper clothes had been completely ripped off by the Nine Heavens Mystic Lightning. He stood up with a loud groan, his black skin instantly flying off in all directions. He was left wearing only a tattered pair of trousers.

Upon hearing the roar, Tang Siyu immediately burst into laughter through her tears and rushed over with Qin Wuyang. However, when they saw Han Qi, they both stopped in their tracks, their expressions changing once again from surprise to confusion and unease.

The skin color of Han Qi before them was no longer the gray-black of a demon, but the skin color of a human. He walked towards the two of them with a calm expression.

"Han Qi is...is...is someone from the human realm?"

Qin Wuyang stammered.
