Marvel Superheroes in China

Upon hearing this, Lu Acai waved her hand, her tone slightly annoyed: "Let's go, I'll go with you."

……

The two arrived at the council hall one after the other.

The arrival of the two immediately created a tense atmosphere in the council hall.

"The Grandmaster has arrived..."

"It's Qin Wu again. How come this kid is so favored by Grandmaster Lu? This is the second time already."

"Is the Grandmaster going to personally intervene? That would cause chaos!"

“If the Grandmaster asks us to rescue people, then there’s nothing we can do. After all, Lu Acai is the highest-level martial artist in Dawn City, and it’s no exaggeration to say that he is the number one human being.”

"Sigh, let's take a look first."

Lu Acai frowned slightly as she looked at the martial artists with their varied expressions. Clearly, they also knew a bit about Qin Wu's situation.

Seeing their tense expressions, Lu Acai took a breath and said calmly, "I suppose you all know about Qin Wu's matter."

As soon as Lu Acai finished speaking, Iron Man and Hulk rushed towards Lu Acai from one side to the other.

Iron Man, his face contorted with grief and his eyes filled with pleading, cried out anxiously, "Grandmasters! Please, please save Qin Wu! I came to this dimension specifically for Qin Wu!"

Similarly, the Hulk also wore a somber expression. Although he didn't have any particular feelings for Qin Wu, Qin Wu was, after all, a human martial artist. From a broader perspective, Qin Wu was a rare genius. For the sake of humanity, the Hulk decided to give up his identity. Moreover, and more importantly, he had personally witnessed Qin Wu being chased and killed by more than a dozen Transcendent Realm cultivators. How many people with internal energy could achieve such a terrifying feat...?

This is also why the Hulk hopes that human warriors will rescue Qin Wu.

Lu Jianguo frowned and said with a worried look, "Yes, Grandmaster, Qin Wu is a rare genius. If we don't save him this time, he will surely die. Then we human martial artists will lose a very powerful fighting force."

After a long silence, Lu Acai gently shook her head and said softly, "It can't be saved. There are too many things involved."

Lu Acai's words caused an uproar among the crowd, but their expressions became complicated as they looked at Lu Acai with puzzled expressions.

Lu Acai continued, "If Qin Wu is still alive, it proves that he has a strong ability to protect himself. If we show up, how could the plane people not notice? With so many martial artists entering the forest together, they will definitely think that there is something very important in the forest. At that time, Qin Wu will be in even greater danger. After careful consideration, I have decided that we cannot save him."

For the sake of the greater good, we can only pray that Qin Wu is safe and sound. A single mishap could have far-reaching consequences; it's too unstable for human martial artists and irresponsible towards the Earth.

Upon hearing Lu Acai's explanation, even the most persistent Iron Man and his companions had no choice but to hang their heads and silently leave the crowd.

Lu Acai and the others are right. Appearing as a Grandmaster will definitely attract the attention of the plane people. At this time, all we can do is pray for Qin Wu in Dawn City and hope that he can turn danger into safety.

Iron Man left the council hall with a somber expression, his heart filled with complex emotions. Looking at the distant sky, he murmured, "Qin Wu, you absolutely mustn't die in there. I haven't even had a chance to spar with you yet..."

Chapter 184: Qiongqi

Qin Wu only felt a white light before his eyes, followed by a deafening explosion that rang out on the ground.

"boom!"

Qin Wu clutched his ears in agony, his eyes tightly shut, his features contorted in pain. He felt as if his eardrums were about to shatter from the explosion. The terrifying pressure made Qin Wu dizzy and disoriented, and he nearly lost his footing several times. After staggering a few steps, Qin Wu finally regained his senses.

When he opened his eyes again, he felt a chill run down his spine, his mind went blank, and he instantly lost the ability to think. His eyes widened, staring blankly at the horrific scene in the valley. He even forgot to breathe, and let out a trembling roar:

"Wow...what terrifying destructive power!"

Qin Wu was extremely shocked. He saw a deep pit, tens of meters long, wide, and deep, appear on the ground in the valley. Around the pit, raging fires were burning, and the few trees in the valley had been ignited by the lightning bolt. Countless trees made a series of crackling and popping sounds.

The billowing black smoke filled the entire valley, creating a truly awe-inspiring scene.

Qin Wu's eyes widened in terror, and his body stood frozen in place as if his pressure points had been struck, muttering to himself:

"Is this... the power of a Grandmaster?"

22 It was just a single bolt of lightning, but it felt like it could split the entire valley in two!

Since he began cultivating, Qin Wu had never witnessed the power of a Grandmaster, nor had he seen many demonic beasts, let alone the strength of a Grandmaster-level human.

And yet, this single demonic beast is already so powerful.

Just how many years has this monster cultivated?!

Five hundred years? A thousand years...?

Even longer!

"Whoosh-"

A gust of wind followed the explosion, slowly dispersing the thick black smoke and revealing the situation in the valley. Qin Wu quickly took three steps back, maintaining a safe distance from the cave in the valley, before daring to look at the situation of the otherworldly beings. Crouching halfway up the mountain, Qin Wu's brows were furrowed, his pale face filled with shock, and his large, round eyes showed the horror in his heart as he stared intently down below.

"hiss--"

Qin Wu gasped sharply.

All those dozens of Transcendent Realm experts who had been chasing Qin Wu in the valley were now lying on the ground!

His face was blackened, even reddish from being burned, and his clothes were burned to ashes by the lightning, with small fragments scattering in the wind.

"Dead... dead?"

Qin Wu felt as if his worldview was about to be shattered, his forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his body was trembling uncontrollably.

These are dozens of experts at the Transcendent Realm!

He died in the blink of an eye!

As they watched the beings from other planes lying on the ground, apart from a few whose bodies were still wreathed in flames, all of them had been burned to a crisp, with wisps of smoke rising into the sky.

Looking at the white-robed expert in the sky, he was now slumped on the ground, his face filled with terror. Due to the lightning, his white robe had been burned beyond recognition, a truly tragic sight.

His originally fair skin had turned dark red, with a trace of crimson on his face. His terrified eyes kept looking around. He didn't know how such a bolt of lightning could suddenly fall from the sky and, to make matters worse, strike them!

What on earth is going on?! Where is that grandmaster-level monster?!

Qin Wu saw all of this. At this moment, he felt weak all over. He slowly turned around and leaned against a rock. The fear in his eyes had not faded. He was panting heavily and his face was pale.

He murmured, "This...is this the power of a Grandmaster? If this lightning bolt were to strike me..."

Thinking of this, Qin Wu's pupils contracted again, and his hand holding the gun trembled slightly.

He exclaimed in horror, "That's right! How come the lightning struck those beings from other planes directly? Did they do something to disturb some grandmaster-level demon beast?"

At this moment, Qin Wu was filled with shock, curiosity, and confusion.

He was the one who came first, so why did the lightning strike him from behind? It's like it was deliberately helping him.

Looking into the deep, bottomless cave, Qin Wu swallowed hard, a dangerous thought forming in his mind.

He thought to himself, "Should I...go and take a look?"

Qin Wu was startled by his own thought, feeling a chill run down his spine, which instantly sobered him up.

He quickly shook his head, telling himself not to do something so crazy.

He hurriedly reminded himself, "Even a master of the Gang Jin realm couldn't withstand it, and I'm just an Inner Jin master. Going there would be tantamount to suicide."

However, this bolt of lightning did give Qin Wu a chance to catch his breath. If those experts at the Gang Jin level had really chased after him, he would probably be the one dead now.

Thinking of this, Qin Wu's face lit up slightly, and his terrified eyes became more certain. He muttered to himself, "We still have to go back first. It's too dangerous here. Even grandmasters have come out. If we keep running around, we might encounter some monsters."

Just as Qin Wu was about to get up, a series of footsteps suddenly sounded from below the valley.

"Tread! Tread! Tread!"

Qin Wu froze, a chill running down his spine as he instinctively thought of something. He wanted to run away, but this was a Grandmaster-level demon beast! He had never seen one before in his life, and if he missed this chance, he didn't know when he would see it again.

The inner turmoil was causing Qin Wu great distress: should he look or not?

With a gritted tooth, Qin Wu's eyes flashed with a cold light as he muttered to himself, "It won't kill me to take a look."

As he spoke, Qin Wu squatted down again, his hands supporting the boulder, his head pressed against the boulder, peeking out slightly, with only one eye showing as he looked down the mountain.

What came into view was a white beast with tiger stripes. It wasn't very big, about a size larger than an adult lion, and probably six or seven meters long. Its body was covered with long, snow-white fur, and it looked very much like a liger.

However, it has two huge wings on its back!

The monster was crawling out of the cave step by step, then lying down beside the corpses, its mouth slightly open. Green energy was seeping out of the corpses and entering the monster's mouth.

In Qin Wu's perception, the monster was like a bottomless lake, and the energy was like streams flowing into it.

The moment Qin Wu saw this monster, he suddenly remembered the "Explored Dimensional Geographical Atlas" he had read before entering the plane. It contained a detailed description of the monster before him: Qiongqi, lion-tiger shaped, snow-white with tiger stripes, an adult Qiongqi is six to ten meters long, has two giant wings on its back, can fly, likes to eat people and sleep, and its strength is above the Grandmaster level...

The location where Qiongqi was situated was the Dark Forest, more than 600 kilometers away from the human settlement...

hiss--

Qin Wu gasped, "Qiongqi, it's actually Qiongqi! How could I be so unlucky as to encounter such a terrifying creature? Then this place... this is the deepest part of the Dark Night Forest."

.......

Chapter 185: Hungry, Want to Eat

Qin Wu stared blankly as the monster absorbed the energy of the plane people for a full three minutes.

The monster seemed to have eaten its fill, and then lay down on the ground without moving. It slightly opened its eyes, turned its gaze, and looked directly at Qin Wu behind the rock, meeting Qin Wu's eyes.

Qin Wu's heart pounded, utterly horrified: "How did it know I was here?! I clearly concealed my presence!"

Qin Wu's head was now as big as an ox, his face was bloodless, and fear instantly overwhelmed him. He swallowed hard, hurriedly stood up from behind the rock, and bowed humbly: "I'm sorry to have disturbed you!"

The white Qiongqi lay on the ground, watching Qin Wu's reaction without moving. Its brown eyes, like copper bells, were calm and still, and it kept exhaling two visible puffs of hot air from its nostrils as it looked Qin Wu up and down.
