Danzun War God

Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Challenge

Upon hearing this, Chi Long was slightly taken aback, clearly somewhat disbelieving that the Fire Qilin would actually exchange itself for these people; obviously, there was a secret he didn't know about. However, he didn't see anything particularly special about Qi Ren, so he said, "These people are worth doing this for? Fine, I swear I'll let them go after you get out."

After speaking, several yellow runes entered the red dragon's body.

"They actually used a soul blood oath on me! And it's so powerful!" Chi Longci felt a bit tricked, but killing an enemy was still worth it.

"Han Qi, since you have encountered your destined tribulation, you will inevitably lose something. I will take care of this tribulation. I also have a responsibility to protect the peace of the four seas and eight wastelands. I will not stand idly by." Seeing that the Crimson Dragon had made a soul blood oath and directly accepted the constraints of the power of the Heavenly Dao, the Fire Qilin was relieved and calmly said to Han Qi.

The fire unicorn whispered to Han Qi, "Han Qi, you must always remember the responsibilities and mission you bear."

Han Qi understood what Huo Qilin meant by that, and made up his mind: he would not let Huo Qilin's efforts be in vain, and he must avenge this.

"You are not worthy to call me Fire Phoenix. Let this old man settle this old and new grudge!" Fire Qilin said, enunciating each word clearly.

Immediately afterward, a flash of inspiration struck, and a beam of red light shot out towards the Crimson Dragon. Caught off guard, the Crimson Dragon was hit squarely, tumbling backward and crashing into the large plaque of the Spirit Beast Hall before falling to the ground.

However, the damage a primordial spirit can inflict on a red dragon is ultimately limited. Nevertheless, it's vastly different from the primordial spirit of an ordinary person, who cannot physically contact the body; it's merely an illusion. This completely enraged the red dragon.

"Roar!"

The Crimson Dragon roared, flipped over, and charged forward, its claw shattering the Fire Qilin's primordial spirit in an instant. Still seemingly unsatisfied, it roared furiously at the group.

"That bastard was just a primordial spirit, yet he dared to deceive me. It would be enough to vent my anger if I didn't destroy his primordial spirit," the Crimson Dragon muttered to himself.

A cold glint flashed in the red dragon's eyes, followed by a strange laugh. Then it said, "I swear I told you to leave, not that I wouldn't kill you after you left. Hahaha..." It then burst into another fit of maniacal laughter.

Han Qi was still brooding over the death of the Fire Qilin, and seeing the Crimson Dragon gloating, he was instantly enraged and shouted, "Shameless Crimson Dragon! If I can leave alive, I will come back one day to take your wretched life!"

"Oh! What a big mouth you have! A mere Saint Infant Realm cultivator dares to be so arrogant here. I'm in a good mood today, so I'll actually let you go if you say so. Ten years as the limit, I'll let you live for another ten years. We'll have a final battle when your cultivation level has improved, how about that?" The Crimson Dragon dispersed the Fire Qilin Primordial Spirit and was in a great mood. At this moment, he was also in a playful mood. While speaking, he secretly made a soul contract. As long as Han Qi agreed to this contract, he would be bound by the Heavenly Dao.

Seeing that Han Qi remained silent, he assumed that Han Qi was scared, so he pressed on and said, "What? Are you scared now? Hahaha, it's understandable that you're scared now that I'm a being beyond the divine body. Now I'll let you leave, and I'll take your life as soon as you get out."

In truth, Han Qi's silence was also a way of establishing a soul contract, but after repeatedly failing, his face flushed red. At this moment, he said fiercely, "Cowardice? You're joking! I accept your challenge..."

Just as Han Qi was about to have the Crimson Dragon sign the contract, several yellow runes entered the bodies of the two men, forming a soul contract.

Han Qi then understood why his contract failed; there can only be one contract for the same thing, and repeating a contract will definitely lead to failure.

Chi Long thought to himself that he was just playing along with him, and he couldn't kill them now. Killing them outside would be petty and not in line with his high-minded approach. Therefore, he decided to dig a pit for Han Qi.

Then, with a flick of its claws, the blue light on the group disappeared, and they fell off the pillar.

The Crimson Dragon was in high spirits. Having been here for thousands of years, it was just about to go out for some fresh air. Then, it swung its claws again, and a blood-red vortex appeared.

The group was sucked into the vortex again. After their feet touched the ground, they found themselves out of the Spirit Beast Hall. The surroundings were pitch black; they couldn't see their own hands in front of their faces.

Immediately afterwards, the Crimson Dragon emerged, soaring upwards and plunging straight into the sky.

"Shout!"

With several dragon roars, the crimson dragon's aura spread in all directions along with the sound waves. Immediately afterwards, the group felt the ground beneath their feet tremble, and countless demonic beasts roared from near to far, clearly intimidated by the crimson dragon's roars and now fleeing for their lives.

Immediately afterward, a flash of lightning illuminated the sky and struck down directly above Yin Xue Peak, clearly aimed at the Crimson Dragon. A total of three lightning bolts struck down. The strength of this heavenly tribulation varies depending on the degree to which a new phenomenon disrupts the balance of the heavenly order. In other words, the stronger the new phenomenon, the stronger the heavenly tribulation.

The intensity of the three lightning bolts before them was unprecedented; the peak of Yin Xue Peak was also cleaved down by several feet.

The Crimson Dragon, covered in wounds, fled back to the Spirit Beast Palace.

The four men's ears were ringing, and they only realized that the pebbles above them were falling when they hurriedly took cover.

By the time everyone had calmed down, it was already broad daylight.

"Let's hurry and gather herbs while the monsters on Yinxue Peak have escaped. It'll save us the trouble of gathering them later," Han Qi said as he urged everyone to set off.

With the threat of demonic beasts gone, the group's pace quickened considerably. They were searching for the Crimson Blood Spirit Fruit, which was far more difficult to obtain than the Blood Essence Demon Fruit. This fruit required absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and needed a dense blood mist to grow, taking at least two hundred years to form. Moreover, high-level demonic beasts were always lurking around such a fruit.

The Crimson Blood Spirit Fruit is a spiritual fruit that every cultivator can use. It is a key ingredient for cleansing the marrow and strengthening the body, as well as increasing the storage of spiritual power. Its value is so great that it is worth a fortune.

Han Qi told everyone what the fruit looked like, and everyone began to search carefully.

After a day of searching, they found many other precious medicinal herbs, but not a trace of the Crimson Blood Spirit Fruit.

Everyone doubted whether the Crimson Blood Spirit Fruit actually existed here. If he hadn't picked quite a few here in his previous life, he would have felt that he had come to the wrong place.

Since it was getting late, no one wanted to spend the night by the fire again, like they had the night before.

Soon, the group discovered a fairly large cave using their divine senses, although it wasn't particularly deep.

"We'll just have to make do in this cave tonight," Qin Wuyang said helplessly. Even in the simple cave, it was more comfortable than being outside with one half of his body charred and the other half frozen.

"Huh? What's this?" Han Qi, who was walking at the back with Tang Siyu holding his hand, suddenly shouted at the cave entrance.
