Black and colorful blood and flesh flew everywhere. Han Chi's face was contorted as he could only watch helplessly as his arm, now free from the protection of the Cloak of Annihilation, crumbled into pieces.
puff!
The force of the punch that had been delivered earlier did not stop, and it slammed heavily into Han Chi's chest.
Although the Cloak of Annihilation had failed, its material was still top-notch. Chen Qian's punch did not penetrate Han Chi's chest, but it did dent a large section of Han Chi's chest.
"puff!"
Blood gushed from Han Chi's mouth like a waterfall, and his figure flew backward at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, constantly darting through the shattered space, appearing and disappearing intermittently.
By the time everyone reacted, Han Chi had already shot into the ground.
Wu Wei's expression changed upon realizing what was happening, but it was too late and he had no ability to stop it.
With the energy currently attached to Han Chi, if he were to crash into the ground, it would likely cause the entire subterranean city to be turned upside down in an instant. Not only that, but the Earth would also face a terrifying disaster.
Just as Wu Wei was feeling anxious, Chen took a step forward and, as if ignoring the dimensions of space, instantly appeared on the ground, right in the direction Han Chi had come from.
He reached out and grabbed, as if he had rehearsed it countless times, and Han Chi deliberately slammed his neck into Shen Qian's hand.
winter!
Shen Qian's body trembled, causing the entire ground to shake, but Han Chi finally stopped, his neck pressed down and held tightly in Shen Qian's hand.
"you……"
Han Chi turned his head with difficulty, as if he wanted to say something.
Shen Qian knew that the power of the Time Conch wouldn't last long, but he had no intention of wasting time. The moment Han Chi opened his mouth, he slapped Han Chi across the face.
With Chen Qian's current cultivation level, dealing with a heavily injured Han Chi wouldn't require any supernatural powers. Even a simple slap would far surpass a full-force attack from a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
The space rippled slightly, and Han Chi's gaze froze.
Bang!
Just as Shen Qian was about to slap Han Chi's head to pieces, the celestial crown, which had turned gray, suddenly regained some light and then emitted a thin layer of light to protect Han Chi's cheek.
When Chen Qian's palm touched the light barrier, the power that was enough to shatter a mountain could not damage the light barrier in the slightest.
Shen Qian frowned, sensing a hidden but powerful aura within it.
He knew that the Witch Emperor, who was far away and whose location was unknown, could not sit still. Otherwise, Han Chi himself could not have broken through the power of Shen Qian's words becoming law and reactivated the Heavenly Crown.
Although King Wu was strong, he was still inferior to the Great Emperor, so it was normal for the power of the laws to fail.
However, even the Witch Emperor was powerless to stop him, so he could only try to save Han Chi's life by controlling the Heavenly Crown.
"Oh!"
Shen Qian sneered and slapped the light shield again.
The light shield trembled slightly, yet remained as solid as a rock.
But Shen Qian ignored it completely, and just kept raising his hand, slapping the light barrier again and again.
Han Chi tried to struggle, but Shen Qian had his neck restrained and he couldn't move at all. His eyes were filled with anger, frustration, and a trace of confusion.
He couldn't understand why, even though he had reached the coveted Martial King realm, he was in an even more sorry state than before.
Bang bang bang...
The slaps before sinking gradually became more frequent, as if following some kind of mysterious law, while the vibrations of the light shield also began to become more and more intense.
Kacha!
Suddenly, a slight cracking sound was heard, but it was not the light shield that shattered; rather, a crack suddenly appeared in the main body of the Celestial Crown.
Just as Chen Qian was about to slap him down again, the Celestial Crown suddenly detached itself from Han Chi's body, along with the Illusion Cloak on Han Chi's body.
The Witch King, finally realizing something was wrong, discovered Shen Qian's "wolf's ambition".
His slaps weren't actually aimed at Han Chi; his real purpose was to take the opportunity to destroy the two Heavenly Rank Star Blades.
"Not too stupid."
Shen Qian clicked his tongue, feeling somewhat regretful. If the Witch Emperor had reacted any slower, the Cloak of Annihilation would have been out of the question, but the Celestial Crown would have been completely destroyed.
However, the current result is barely acceptable. The relentless bombardment before sinking has caused irreversible damage to the Celestial Crown. Even if it can still be used, its power will be drastically reduced.
He knew that Han Chi in front of him was nothing; the real enemy was always the Witch Emperor behind him!
Therefore, he would not miss such an excellent opportunity to weaken the opponent's combat power.
As soon as the Celestial Crown and the Cloak of Illusion detached from Han Chi's body, they disappeared into the spatial rift at the speed of light.
As soon as the Heavenly Crown and the Cloak of Illusion disappeared, Shen Qian no longer held back and, amidst Han Chi's desperate and terrified gaze, slapped his head until it was smashed.
"No……"
Whoosh!
Before the slap that could flatten space into a disc, Han Chi's head was shattered and his body was completely disintegrated like building blocks.
A semi-transparent little figure, mixed with gold and black, floated out from Han Chi's shattered body. Its face kept changing and twisting, sometimes showing Han Chi, sometimes showing another indifferent man that Shen Qian had never seen before.
Upon seeing this, Shen Qian raised an eyebrow.
Only then did he realize how deeply Han Chi had been corrupted by the Witch Emperor, to the point that even his own soul was no longer intact. Even if Han Chi survived today, he would soon self-destruct due to the imbalance of power.
From the very beginning, the Witch King only regarded Han Chi as a springboard to dismantle the human race and never cared about his life or death.
“Sink forward…” This was the voice of the cold man, also known as the Witch Emperor. Just those two words caused the temperature in the air to drop sharply.
