The Rebirth of Bai Qi: The Way of Qi

Beneath the vast sky, the mountain peak stands like an isolated island between heaven and earth.

All was silent, save for the occasional low growls of wild beasts in the distance, as if foreshadowing some unsettling force brewing.

Bai Qi sat calmly in the center of the mountain peak, his heart as still as water, his gaze leisurely, as if the raging wind and thunder had nothing to do with him.

An indescribable force is sweeping in, as if it were leaping out from the sky and enveloping the entire world.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, feeling the power of the soul contract and the mystery of resonating with heaven and earth.

The ancient soul appeared and disappeared within the contract, seemingly watching him silently from the other side of time and space, which made Bai Qi's mind even more resolute.

Faced with the impending life-or-death test of heaven and earth's thunder, the fearlessness in his soul was fully revealed.

Suddenly, thunder roared down, as if ten thousand mountains had collapsed at the same time, shaking the surrounding area.

Bai Qi's body twitched slightly, standing firm like an old pine tree, appearing exceptionally steadfast amidst the raging lightning.

With a thought, the power within his soul surged forth, colliding head-on with the destructive force of the thunder.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar echoed through the sky, like a sharp sword piercing the night and splitting a dazzling crack in the heavens.

The lightning released unimaginable power in an instant, like a celestial river hanging upside down, rushing straight down.

Han Xin, Han Fu, and others stood not far away, their faces tense, holding their breath.

"General Bai!" Situ Yan called softly, her hand holding the dagger trembling slightly.

However, she knew that this tribulation was Bai Qi's destined challenge, and any intervention would only increase his immense pressure.

In the instant the lightning flashed, the contracted soul also transformed into a light screen around Bai Qi, protecting his entire body.

The light curtain enveloped everything like flowing water, invisibly isolating it from the erosion of the lightning.

A gentle yet firm force protected him, instantly relieving the overwhelming pressure from the unseen world.

At the same time, Bai Qi's soul was purified by this indescribable power, becoming increasingly pure and transparent in the Thunder Purgatory.

He sensed the Qi within his body gradually increasing, and his cultivation level rising in layers like ripples, undergoing countless changes.

Han Xin stood at a distance, his brows furrowed with silent admiration and worry.

He realized that Bai Qi was able to use Qi to resolve the lightning tribulation, and the changes in power within it were like a thousand troops, bringing Bai Qi to a state he had never experienced before.

Suddenly, the flames of lightning flickered on and off, and a deafening roar once again echoed through the sky.

Bai Qi's aura expanded even more, like a vast ocean surging endlessly. It flowed and surged, contracting and expanding, and through the power of the soul and the contract, it was transformed into the power of thunder.

This was the moment when Bai Qi truly clashed with Lei Ting. It was as if he was the only one left in the world. He closed his eyes and became absorbed in his thoughts. His soul was no longer bound by his body and roamed freely in this endless space.

However, just as heaven and earth collided and Bai Qi was fighting back against the thunder, a sudden change occurred on the horizon.

A troop of soldiers approached from afar, their weapons clashing, their steps swift. Their uniforms were jet black, and they exuded a chilling aura of death, clearly indicating they were no ordinary soldiers.

Its leader had eyes like an eagle, and his whole body was surrounded by an inescapable sinister aura that inspired fear in those who looked upon him.

Those ghost soldiers were sent by Li Si, who attempted to take advantage of Bai Qi's battle with the lightning tribulation to invade and disrupt the situation.

This was undoubtedly a severe challenge, and it also meant that Bai Qi, at his most exhausted, faced a double threat.

The ghostly soldiers moved swiftly like the wind, and in an instant they leaped to where Han Xin and Han Fu were, brandishing their swords and throwing their spears, intending to disrupt the formation of the guards.

Han Xin always prioritized caution. When he saw the ghost soldiers approaching, he did not panic. Instead, he quickly drew his long sword and bravely faced them.

"Brothers, protect the general!" This is not only a comrade's oath, but also an unwavering bond among soldiers.

Amidst the chaotic battle, Han Fu's gaze was focused and resolute. Facing rows of shadows, she did not hesitate to strike, responding to the enemy with a drawn bow and sharp arrows. The arrows traveled straight through the enemy lines, swift as lightning.

Although Situ Yan was caught off guard by the sudden attack of the ghost soldiers, she quickly drew her dagger and attacked, using her graceful yet ruthless skills to fight back against the attacking ghost soldiers, and using her agile figure to resolve the desperate situation one by one.

At this moment, although Bai Qi was struck by the Thunder Hammer, his perception of everything around him became even more acute.

He was well aware of Li Si's intention to attack, and he was also acutely aware of the fact that he was surrounded by enemies.

Fortunately, he was unlucky and didn't dwell on it too much. He calmed his mind, summoned the surging thunder in his chest with his thoughts, merged it with the contracted soul, and headed out in all directions.

The contracted soul was full, releasing endless light, resonating with the power of thunder, stirring the surroundings, and transforming into a vast and mighty rainbow of lightning.

Wherever the light reached, the various Yin soldiers were like withered trees coming back to life. They were struck by lightning and either disappeared or vanished, scattering like pieces of paper.

The thunder evolved across the vast sky, all of it merging into the depths of Bai Qi's soul, granting him even greater power.

Controlling Qi with his mind and defying the heavens, Bai Qi transforms once again from lightning. His power spreads like wildfire across the sky, not only rewriting his own destiny but also unintentionally shaking the laws of time and space.

At this moment, even though those Yin soldiers were fierce, they ultimately could not withstand the wrath of the heavenly thunder and retreated without a trace.

The utmost sincerity and strength of courage and the purity of his soul emanated an unparalleled primordial power from Bai Qi.

Even though Li Si's military strategies were thorny, the ghost soldiers he sent were still caught in his ingenious plan and went north.

Li Si stared at this scene with utter disbelief, his heart filled with astonishment.

Faced with such a powerful figure, one feels more resentment and anger.

Just as all this quieted down, Bai Qi calmly regained his composure, opened his eyes, and gazed at the world.

The light of lightning still lingered around him, and it was in this curtain of light and the stillness at the end that Bai Qi fully comprehended the true meaning of Qi Refining.

Reborn from the ashes of lightning, he is as strong as ever. He not only displays invincible bravery, but also shows everyone the direction to take in the future.

From then on, he would face any challenge with his fearless and immortal spirit.

Standing beneath the sky, he felt both an indelible sense of wonder and a firm belief in his immeasurable future.

When the tribulation of lightning is over, what is purified is the soul, and what is sublimated is destiny.

Those who witnessed all of this remembered his bravery, as well as the indomitable spirit and awakening of his soul.

At this moment, Bai Qi had become an immortal symbol in everyone's hearts, even a god of war.
