Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 372: Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe

The Jing Tribe was the most powerful Demon Race in the East Sea. Although Jing Chuan was only from a side branch, he was still a genius of the Jing Tribe and a mighty warrior at the Third Layer of the Heavenly King Realm. In terms of innate talent and strength, he completely overshadowed Su Han, to say nothing of his status and background.

Yet, after clashing with Su Han, even the formidable Jing Chuan had been continuously suppressed and forced into a disadvantageous position. Now, he had been injured by a single punch, his wound bleeding unabated. This outcome was beyond everyone's expectations. They all stared, dumbfounded, at Jing Chuan, who had been smashed into the ground by a single punch. It was a long time before they could recover from their shock.

What a formidable human youngster! The commotion had also drawn the attention of the Swordtooth Shark, who was locked in a fierce battle with Tongyan. His pupils contracted as a tremor went through his heart. He was well aware of Jing Chuan's power. Even he himself would struggle to gain an advantage against him. Yet Su Han, who was merely in the Divine Power Realm, had actually managed to injure Jing Chuan. The feat itself was inconceivable.

From the very beginning, Su Han had been going all out, holding nothing back. His endless stream of techniques, coupled with the presence of the Nine Palace Golden Pagoda, had caused Jing Chuan immense trouble. Furthermore, Su Han was exceptionally sharp at seizing opportunities. The moment Jing Chuan revealed the slightest flaw, he would immediately exploit it to deliver a devastating blow.

A man like Su Han was undoubtedly terrifying. Even the battle-hardened Swordtooth Shark was stunned by his combat power. He actually felt somewhat relieved. The Tongyan he was facing, although not weak, was far less mysterious than Su Han and didn't possess a Holy Artifact. This allowed him to not only hold his own but also gain a slight upper hand by leveraging his superior realm.

Lan Mu is dead, so my biggest competitor is Jing Chuan. Let them fight! It would be best if they cripple each other. That way, I can just sit back and reap the rewards!

The Swordtooth Shark desperately hoped Su Han and Jing Chuan would grievously injure each other. After all, besides Jing Chuan, he was the strongest one present. As long as those two were out of the picture, he could dominate the entire situation. With this in mind, the Swordtooth Shark was no longer in a hurry to defeat Tongyan. He decided to drag out the fight and wait for Su Han and Jing Chuan to wear each other down.

Tongyan, however, keenly sensed his little scheme and had no intention of letting him succeed. Her attacks grew even more ferocious, like a sudden squall, forcing the Swordtooth Shark onto the defensive.

It would be some time before the battle between Tongyan and the Swordtooth Shark could be decided. The fight between Su Han and Jing Chuan, however, was growing more intense and had entered a white-hot stage.

"Su Han, you have successfully infuriated me! I will devour you!" From the great pit, Jing Chuan roared in fury. His Demon Qi instantly began to boil, gathering on his broad back to form a swirling vortex. "Intermediate Grade Divine Power: Sea Swirl Vortex!"

Jing Chuan unleashed his Divine Power Technique. The Demon Qi vortex expanded rapidly, eventually reaching a massive five hundred meters in diameter. A terrifying suction force emanated from its center, pulling at everything in the vicinity like a black hole that could swallow all of existence.

However, when it came to devouring, who could possibly surpass Su Han, the wielder of the Devouring Heaven Demonic Art?

"Dual Black Holes!"

Su Han waved his hand, and two thirty-meter black holes instantly materialized. They were so dark and profound that a single glance felt like it could swallow one's very Heart Spirit. The thirty-meter black holes seemed minuscule compared to the five-hundred-meter Sea Swirl Vortex, but their Devouring Power was the complete opposite. The profound black holes, with their dual-layered devouring effect, began to strip away wisps of Demon Qi from the Sea Swirl Vortex and consumed them directly.

"How… how is this possible?"

Witnessing this, Jing Chuan's pupils shrank in disbelief. The Jing Tribe naturally possessed a formidable swallowing ability, and this Divine Power Technique was the ultimate expression of it, capable of swallowing an entire mountain. And yet, it was now being devoured instead.

As more and more Demon Qi was consumed by the Dual Black Holes, the Sea Swirl Vortex grew progressively thinner and began to dissipate. Su Han's Dual Black Holes were a specialized counter to all Phenomena and Divine Skills. Combined with his new understanding of the Way of the Universe, their devouring ability had become even more freakishly powerful. With his Divine Skill broken, Jing Chuan now had no way to harm Su Han.

"Divine Skill: Blossoming with One Thought!"

Jing Chuan had unleashed his Divine Skill, but Su Han was just getting started. He unleashed a Divine Power Technique of his own, and a Black Netherworld Flower materialized and slowly bloomed. From within its petals, the Shore Flower Clone—a perfect double of Su Han—stepped forth.

The moment the Shore Flower Clone appeared, it unleashed a barrage of Origin Techniques and Divine Methods at Jing Chuan: "Fiery Flame Storm!" "Netherworld Cold Tide!" "Ice-Fire Sixth Layer Heavens!" "Three Mountains Five Peaks!" "Thunder Roaring Eight Trigrams!" Meanwhile, Su Han's original body clenched his left fist, brandished his blade with his right, and charged forward to engage in close combat.

This was the optimal combat strategy Su Han had devised. Although the Shore Flower Clone possessed the same level of strength as his original body, it lacked his various treasures, making its combat power slightly inferior. Therefore, it was best used to cast a wide range of Martial Techniques and Origin Techniques. His original body, on the other hand, not only possessed the Great Luo Golden Bone but also had a Sacred Body that was nearing Great Accomplishment. This made him far more formidable in close-quarters combat. With both bodies working in concert, he could unleash his full power.

"A doppelganger-type Divine Skill!" The appearance of the Shore Flower Clone left Jing Chuan utterly shocked once again. Su Han simply had too many techniques, and every single one was something beyond the reach of an ordinary person. Even for a scion of an Imperial Clan like himself, it was astounding.

What in the world is this Su Han's background? Why have I never heard his name before? A member of the Human Race this powerful shouldn't be a complete unknown!

Although his mind was filled with doubt, Jing Chuan didn't dare be the least bit careless while facing the seamless coordination of the two Su Hans. His Demon Qi erupted as he simultaneously activated the Giant Sea Golden Conch and unleashed a powerful Martial Technique.

"Earth Rank High Level Martial Technique: Kun Fish Across the Sky Crash!"

The greatest strength of the Jing Tribe was not stealth or martial prowess, but their physical bodies. They were descendants of the Kun who also possessed a trace of Dragon Blood. As Jing Chuan charged forward, his enormous body became like a meteorite plummeting at high speed, carrying an unstoppable, terrifying force as it hurtled toward Su Han. An ordinary attack could not possibly harm such a powerful physical body, nor could common techniques withstand such a collision. Even with his Sacred Body, Su Han would find it extremely difficult to receive this blow head-on. Yet, his expression remained impassive, devoid of fear.

"Origin Technique: Primordial Qi!"

Su Han had his Shore Flower Clone force Jing Chuan into using his Art of Teleportation, after which his original body unleashed the Primordial Qi. The Primordial Qi was Su Han's very own Origin Technique, his most powerful, and this time, it was even more terrifying than before. The Way of the Universe involved devouring all things and evolving them into chaos. Now that Su Han had comprehended the path of his own Way of the Universe, his control over the Primordial Qi had become even more exquisite.

"Primordial Qi Opening Sky Axe!"

Su Han converted all his power into this single mass of Primordial Qi. This time, instead of forming the Great Capture Technique, it coalesced into a gigantic Heaven-Opening God Ax. Legend told of an ancient god from the Chaotic Era who wielded an ax to split the heavens and the earth. Now, the Primordial Qi had transformed into this Heaven-Opening God Ax, and it chopped straight down at Jing Chuan.

SQUELCH!

As the ax fell, Jing Chuan's body was torn asunder. He collapsed to the ground, grievously wounded, as his blood flowed like a river.
