Nine Nether Underworld Qi!

Qin Heng's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the man who claimed to be the King of the Underworld. "So it was you who left that stream of Nine Nether Evil Qi in Lu Guangyuan," he said. "Where did you get it from?"

For most worlds, this Nine Nether Evil Qi meant an apocalyptic disaster, but for Qin Heng, it signified an excellent tonic.

If he could obtain another strand of Nine Nether Evil Qi and cultivate it, he could reopen the rift to the Nine Nether Underworld. Drawing forth a Nine Nether Evil Demon and annihilating it would further promote the resurgence of Spiritual Energy on Earth and enhance his comprehension of the Supreme Law.

He could also obtain another wisp of pure Heavenly Essence to increase the power of his magic item, or use it as Spirit Guide material for casting powerful spells or Divine Skills.

The pure Yuan Qi left behind by the Golden Core level Nine Nether Evil Demon that Qin Heng had previously slain, if not used in crafting a replica of the Chaotic Clock, would be sufficient to allow him to cast a terrifying spell that could instantly level the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau!

It would be countless times more formidable than the most terrifying and powerful technological weapon on Earth!

This was a power beyond the imagination of ordinary humans, but for Qin Heng, it was merely a Golden Core level spell.

However, Qin Heng needed to reserve this wisp of pure Yuan Qi as material for crafting a replica of the Chaotic Clock, so it was not to be used lightly. If he could obtain another strand of Yuan Qi of the same, or even greater, purity, he could keep it stored as his ultimate trump card.

To Qin Heng, Nine Nether Underworld Qi was undoubtedly an exceptionally valuable treasure.

Now, this so-called Hades of Olympus had suddenly shown up, seemingly related to the Nine Nether Underworld Qi, instantly piquing his interest tremendously.

The King of the Underworld did not know that he had already become a movable treasure trove in Qin Heng's eyes. He thought Qin Heng was frightened and, with an air of superiority, sneered, "That's right, it was our doing. That was just one of our experiments, but unexpectedly, it managed to lure out a big fish like you. It turns out there really are treasures in this world capable of refining Nine Nether Underworld Qi."

Clearly, he did not take Qin Heng seriously at all.

As a Semi-Saint, on today's Earth, that was an absolutely top-tier strength, far surpassing the majority of Transcendents; even peak Innate experts had no chance against Semi-Saints.

They couldn't even survive a single encounter.

A Semi-Saint, although still just 'semi,' had already begun the true transformation from Transcendent to Saint, exhibiting a distinct and significant gap compared to the Innate level, which had yet to achieve Sainthood.

"Qin Xuantian, why aren't you handing over that treasure yet?" One of the two people beside the King of the Underworld seemed very dissatisfied with Qin Heng's attitude and said, "Do you really want your friends and family to die?"

"No need to be so hasty," the King of the Underworld replied, casually waving his hand. He looked at Qin Heng, his chin slightly raised, his gaze contemptuous, as if looking down from a great height, and said, "Qin Xuantian, you actually have the option to refuse, if you're willing to bear the consequences."

"Heh." Qin Heng chuckled lightly, finding it somewhat amusing as he looked at the three of them. "Didn't you thoroughly inquire about my achievements before you came to China?"

Several peak Innate experts had already died at his hands; even a Soldier Master comparable to a Saint had fallen by his hand. Were the brains of these emissaries from the pantheon, these Semi-Saints, so muddled that they dared to be so arrogant in his presence?

They must be insane.

Or completely tired of living, seeking death?

"Hahaha! Qin Xuantian, you're too arrogant!" one of the two people behind the King of the Underworld said with a cold laugh, "We know you very well. Your achievements are indeed astonishing, defeating many Innate Grandmasters in succession. Your strength truly is formidable! It's just a pity that His Majesty Hades is a Semi-Saint level powerhouse, only one step away from becoming a true Holy Spirit and entirely transcending the mundane. In front of Lord Hades, someone like you is just an ant, not worth mentioning at all."

"That's right, you ant, should have immediately knelt and paid your respects after seeing Lord Hades," the other person chimed in with an arrogant tone. "Your current attitude towards Lord Hades is truly disrespectful. To execute you for this would not be excessive!"

"Now, you should realize what level you are at," Hades looked at Qin Heng, his face full of contempt. "You people from China have a very strange and disgusting flaw. That is your arrogant egotism. Despite being so weak, you can't admit it, and you even hypnotize yourselves into believing that you have risen and won't be bullied by others again.

In reality, you are still incredibly weak, whether it's the technology of ordinary humans or the strife in our transcendent world. In fact, China is rubbish.

We of the Olympus pantheon have three Semi-Saints, yet in all of China, not even a trace of a Semi-Saint can be found. You are truly too weak, and within this country, you, Qin Xuantian, are particularly feeble."

As he spoke, Hades stretched out a finger and said to Qin Heng, "Just this one finger is all I need to crush you effortlessly. You really are too weak, so insignificant that you're like an ant. I even have to be careful controlling the force of my words, lest I accidentally inflict serious injury upon you with a careless breath. Heh heh, now you can hand over that treasure, or else..."

WHOOSH!

At that moment, Qin Heng moved in an instant, suddenly appearing right in front of Hades, closing the distance to within a meter. It was as if he had teleported; his speed was so extreme that it whipped up a gale, which rampaged through this isolated small world.

"So, they're really just three fools," Qin Heng sneered, raising his hand and throwing a punch that shot straight out, piercing through the void, as if wanting to shatter this world itself!

BOOM!

This punch was exceptionally powerful, shaking the heavens and earth, far exceeding Hades's imagination. The two people behind Hades were stunned on the spot, unable to comprehend and simply dumbfounded.

"You! How is this possible?!" Hades's pupils constricted. He didn't even have time to dodge; the power of a Semi-Saint couldn't be deployed in time. He could only watch as the fist suddenly loomed larger before him.

Immediately afterward—

BANG!

A surge of intense pain spread, and Hades's perception plummeted into an endless darkness and deathly silence. He was pulverized by Qin Heng's fist, bursting on the spot, ceasing to exist!

The other two were also shattered by the shockwave of that punch, annihilated body and soul!

All three were killed by a single punch from Qin Heng.

However, the surroundings didn't return to normal. The external world still appeared in black and white through Qin Heng's eyes, and this void remained an independent space separated from reality!

The technique dividing the two realms hadn't been lifted!

As expected! Qin Heng sneered, reaching out with his hand.

At the spot where "Hades" dissipated, he grabbed a black coin engraved with exquisite patterns that depicted a scene of death in the Underworld, exuding an aura of demise.

Then, the coin suddenly turned into metallic powder. It slipped through Qin Heng's fingers and fell to the ground, where the black powder automatically formed a line of small characters in surprisingly neat regular script.

"Qin Xuantian of the Divine Province, you have destroyed one of my incarnations, as if you've wounded one of my lives. One day, I shall take your head and bind your soul, to torment you for eternity!"
