As Han Chi muttered to himself, a mixture of bewilderment and excitement appeared on his face, with a hint of indescribable relief in between.
Wu Wei had known Han Chi for many years, having dealt with him since the early days of the spiritual energy revival, but he had never seen Han Chi display such strange emotions.
For a moment, Wu Wei had a terrible premonition.
"Minister, kill him!"
Amidst the astonished gazes of numerous kings and nobles, Shen Qian suddenly stepped forward and roared.
Shen Qian wasn't actually sure what Han Chi was going to do, but at this moment, the "omniscient" text within him was vibrating wildly, which was clearly a warning.
While it's impossible to know the past and future in such an exaggerated way, the "omniscient" text has long demonstrated certain prophetic attributes, so I confirmed before sinking that my premonition was correct.
For a figure of Han Chi's stature, his dying madness must have been an unbearable burden for the human race.
As soon as he spoke, Shen Qian had already leaped into the dimensional battlefield.
Wu Wei was also extremely decisive. Upon hearing Chen Qian's shout, he immediately ignited his violent star power and heavily struck the critically injured and dying Han Chi.
However, something strange happened.
No matter how ruthlessly Wu Wei attacked, Han Chi, who was clearly on the verge of death, managed to maintain a faint glimmer of life.
His body was constantly collapsing and disintegrating, but within that potential energy, it seemed as if another completely different kind of energy was awakening.
The energy was initially small, but gradually, all the kings and nobles present could feel its awakening.
At the same time, Han Chi also completely lost his mind. He laughed loudly and said, "I, Han Chi, have lived for three hundred years in vain. I have never loved money or beauty in this life. To me, the mortal world is nothing but a skeleton. My lifelong pursuit is nothing more than the pinnacle of martial arts. But the Ninth Prince has played a huge joke on me!"
"They say humanity is flawed, they say the Way of Heaven is flawed!"
"Am I, Han Chi, blind?"
"How could I not know if there's a shortage?"
"Even if this martial path is flawed, whether or not to step onto it is my choice, Han Chi's choice!"
"Why...why do they make any decisions for me?!"
"Heavenly principles? Justice? The heritage of humanity?"
"It's all bullshit, hahahaha..."
The laughter contained a hint of sobbing, and also a madness that seemed to want to perish with everything, leaving all the kings and nobles present speechless.
They have reached the pinnacle of humanity, but undeniably, no one can transcend everything; they too have selfish desires and hidden dark sides.
only……
What we think in our hearts is never important; what matters is the choices we make at every crossroads that influence our destiny.
At that moment, Han Chi also made his choice.
Wu Wei is still going all out to try to completely eliminate Han Chi.
But in those few seconds, a halo of light, as dark as ink, expanded out of Han Chi's body.
Wu Wei threw a punch, but his expression suddenly changed. When he touched the thick ink, he withdrew his hand as if he had been electrocuted, and then his body suddenly retreated.
Seeing that Shen Qian was still rushing towards them, Wu Wei shouted, "Stop!"
Shen Qian stopped a thousand feet away, looked up in confusion, and was immediately startled.
Wu Wei's fist was also stained with thick ink, which turned into a black, foul-smelling liquid that was sizzling and corroding his palm.
Wu Wei is a Great Luo Golden Immortal, a realm where he is immune to all magic. What kind of poison could corrode his body?
"A curse! This is the curse of the witch clan!"
Wu Wei's expression was solemn as he continuously used the power of the stars to wear down the black liquid, but it was extremely difficult and his efforts were largely in vain.
Shen Qian was not unfamiliar with the magic of the Wu tribe, but at this moment he still found it incredible.
Even if it's a curse from the Witch Clan, what level of curse could cause Wu Wei, who has already stepped into the Martial King realm, to suffer physical damage just from being touched by a little bit of it?
As they looked at each other, the same answer had already formed in Wu Wei and Shen Qian's minds, which was why Wu Wei's expression was solemn.
At this moment, the thick, dark aura surrounding Han Chi finally spread completely, transforming into a cold, indifferent face above his head.
This face resembles the features of a human, but upon closer inspection, it has no eyebrows, and its childlike eyes are filled with a haughty disdain for all living beings.
An aura powerful enough to shatter heaven and earth emanated from it, and Han Chi's body suddenly stood up as if he were a puppet.
"The Witch King!"
Shen Qiantong shrank back and shouted out those two words almost without thinking.
He had seen images of almost all the powerful emperors, and with the existence of the system, he was extremely familiar with this kind of pressure.
This kind of exclusive pressure of "I am the world" can only be possessed by a Great Emperor!
Upon receiving confirmation from Shen Qian, Wu Wei's expression truly turned serious.
Exclamations of surprise also came from the group of kings and nobles in the distance.
Even if some of them did not have a direct understanding of the "Great Emperor" realm, they could still feel the despairing gap when they sensed the arrival of the Witch Emperor's aura.
If the Martial King realm is something they can at least see and touch, but cannot cross, then the Great Emperor realm is a suffocating mountain that makes it hard for them to breathe.
"Han Chi, you have fallen so low that you are willing to use yourself as a medium to summon the Witch Emperor!"
Having figured out what was going on, Wu Wei roared and glared at Han Chi.
"Hahaha, since I've already become a demon, why not go all the way and let everything be destroyed so we can start all over again!"
