Chapter 347: I Am the Approaching Storm

On the Spirit World TV, it looked like some cutting-edge Broly MAD, except the protagonist had been swapped out for Senzui Jin, and the supporting cast was Pufanyouzhu .

“This won’t work… this kind of power…”

Mudan’s voice trembled with fear; Little Yama frowned tightly.

“How is this possible!”

Huan Hai couldn’t hold back—she rushed out, even though she knew her presence couldn’t change a thing, but You Hu was her disciple.

In her judgment, this challenge against Senzui Jin wasn’t training for You Hu—it might kill him outright.

The sudden twist left everyone speechless.

The rest fell utterly silent, when Jia Ji spoke as if trying to ease the tension.

Jia Ji asked: “Do you know the difference between You Hu and a Saiyan?”

Ken Shi Lang: “Hm?”

Jia Ji slapped his thigh: “Saiyans have S-cells—he has L (Lei Chan) cells!”

Ken Shi Lang hugged her arms, shivering: “Have you ever considered applying to Tresen Academy to be Rudo Fu’s T?”

…

Terrifying terrifying terrifying! Horrible horrible horrible!

Before this, the strongest openly acknowledged in the Human World was B-Rank peak—unless the state deployed nuclear weapons in a saturation bombardment at any cost, or sent out an equal-level powerhouse, there was no way to stop him.

As for A-Rank powerhouses, besides the Spirit World Special Forces guarding against demon invasions, now only Huan Hai and Xue Cai remained; to find another, you’d have to dig three feet deep—even the first-generation Spirit Detective Hei Tian Zhenhu was only a B-Rank spiritual user.

But from Senzui Jin onward, everything changed.

His seven alternate personalities each possessed A-Rank strength; even the four-person team led by You Hu—each gifted and battle-hardened—could barely match the weakest of them in a combined effort.

Then came the main personality: the true Senzui Jin unleashing the “Holy Light Qi,” the supreme martial energy of the Human World, said to belong only to angels, attainable only by the most Tianfuyibing spiritual cultivators.

Of course, this martial energy differed from that cultivated by the Dragon Turn Breathing Method—it was formed by condensing and transforming all spiritual power in the body, formless and shifting, endlessly variable, possessing a terrifying power unprecedented and unmatched.

He himself claimed that even using half his strength in the Human World would shatter the earth; this leap in power, this overwhelming might, was impossible to believe, amplified beyond any basic logic.

If he unleashed his full power now, he could easily cause millions of casualties across this narrow island nation; given a day, he could sink half of Japan into the Pacific.

The strongest human in history, the uncontrollable S-Rank spiritual user—“Senzui Jin”—finally took this seriously.

Space trembled faintly; surrounding buildings jolted; countless animals sensed the wrongness and frantically tried to flee, yet no matter how hard they struggled, none could escape the range of Senzui Jin’s Holy Light Qi.

The holy martial energy radiated outward from Senzui Jin in an instant, engulfing everything.

From this street, from You Hu and Fei Ying, from Chongji City, it expanded endlessly outward, swallowing all heaven and earth; flat ground and nearby skyscrapers all became circular meteor craters.

Beneath them, the entire earth quaked uncontrollably, like an earthquake—the tremors even reached the Spirit World, making the spectators feel it faintly.

And what of You Hu, facing him directly?

—He was lying on the ground.

Immense pressure relentlessly crushed his body.

Because of Senzui Jin’s strength,

Because of his invincible aura,

He was forced, humiliated, to kneel on the ground.

Damn it!

His face turned crimson, his eyes bloodshot; he gritted his teeth, jaw cracking from the strain, expression grotesque and terrifying, eyes bulging.

Damn it damn it damn it damn it damn it!!!

If he could still think, You Hu might have cursed inwardly—against Senzui Jin’s unreasonable power, against Jia Ji’s utterly unreliable, suicidal suggestion.

But now he was in battle.

Even if it was only his own perception of battle.

So he didn’t consider anything else.

He thought only of how to win!

How to defeat Senzui, fight Senzui, kill Senzui!

His eyes widened, terrifying to behold.

Was he going to lose again? Could he possibly lose?

How could this be accepted??

This was unacceptable!!

“Damn it… damn it… damn it!!!!”

The spiritual light, nearly exhausted, erupted again violently from his body.

With a furious roar, his arm wrapped in spiritual light surged with power; his lean muscles swelled with blood, veins rising like coiling dragons and snakes, grotesque and fierce.

Senzui Jin, fully dominant, suddenly felt an infinitesimally faint resistance within his Holy Light field!

A force from nowhere.

But it was real!

And growing stronger!

Little by little—now! Right now!

Growing?! Really?! Hahaha!!

“Hahahahahahahaha!!”

Though laughing, Senzui Jin’s face had grown cold; no matter what happened afterward, the Spirit World would no longer ignore him.

He had never met, never interacted with these sudden brats—yet they appeared as if destined to obstruct him.

One bit weaker and his alternate personalities would crush them; one less person and he’d obliterate them outright—they were just strong enough to force Senzui Jin to use his ultimate form to kill them.

Now, his original plan—to secretly open the Demon World’s Abyss and let demons return to the Human World—had utterly failed.

So he would give You Hu no chance, no opportunity to grow strong enough to threaten him—he would deliver the final blow with absolute, unstoppable power!

BOOM!

An indescribable force slammed directly into You Hu.

The earth shattered, limbs split, blood spurted.

One punch—You Hu’s heart stopped beating entirely.

Fallen.

Life extinguished.

His spiritual energy fluctuations vanished completely.

…

Before the horrified eyes of all, the ever-laughing, carefree, yet utterly reliable You Hu died right before them.

Little Yama whirled around, glaring at the impassive figure: “Are you just watching?!”

If they didn’t stop Senzui Jin now, utterly insane, every human in this nation would be slaughtered by his Holy Light Qi; the Spirit World would collapse under the flood of unexpected souls.

Then the entire Human World would descend into chaos.

And all of this was because Jia Ji proposed sending You Hu and others to fight Senzui Jin—if not for his proposal, this situation would never have occurred.

Even though Little Yama knew Senzui Jin had become abnormal, plotting something sinister, and they would inevitably face him later—Jia Ji had merely accelerated the timeline.

But Little Yama couldn’t suppress his anger; among everyone present, only Jia Ji had the power to stop Senzui Jin—so why didn’t he act? Why send You Hu, far weaker, to face an opponent he could never defeat?

The King of Hell once ordered them to assist Jia Ji—but now, what exactly had they helped accomplish?!

They protected nothing at all!

Jia Ji said nothing, his face showing no surprise—he watched calmly, his eyes seeming to await something.

The scene shifted again due to You Hu’s death.

Kuwabara Kazuma, a man possessing an aura beyond ordinary humans, wept upon seeing his friend’s death—furious, awakened!

“Extend—!! Spirit Sword!!”

A tiny starpoint coalesced in his hand.

The starpoint stretched forward, thickening as it went, becoming a peerless, world-shaking spirit sword!

It was the Sword That Cuts Through Dimensions!

“You Hu!!!”

Thunder exploded across the sky; as the human Nan Ye Xiu Yi, he had red hair and emerald eyes—now transformed into flowing silver hair and noble golden eyes, along with the fox demon’s ears and tail.

—The legendary evil thief, the Fox Demon, appeared.

“Unforgivable…”

Fei Ying, trembling with rage, used every ounce of his strength to break free from the Yazhi , lunging into the air, hovering before Senzui Jin; his hand gathered an aura so potent it would destroy even himself; his third eye snapped open—essence, qi, spirit, killing intent, battle will, life, soul—all surged and boiled in an instant.

All three had broken through to new realms due to their friend’s death, their power exploding—blasting, surging, raging, dominating!

But even now, before Senzui Jin, they were merely…

“Weak.”

Countless attacks struck Senzui Jin—he had unleashed his full strength, each blow capable of defeating his former self—but Senzui Jin showed no sign of injury, not even moving.

He merely flicked his hand—and all three flew backward together.

This scene was like a manga artist rushing to an ending, wildly inflating power levels, attempting the worst kind of left-foot-stepping-right-foot spiral ascent.

Little Yama couldn’t laugh—he flew around frantically, muttering “What to do, what to do,” when he heard a girl’s voice filled with anticipation—

“Yao lai li!”

Come… come what?

Little Yama turned to the black-haired, golden-eyed girl, and heard Jia Ji speak: “You Hu is, in fact, a pure demon…”

“What are you talking about? Yūsuke is clearly human…?”

Little Yama could no longer follow their train of thought.

“Have you heard of the Great Demonic Generational Gap?”

Jia Ji finally stood up, stretched, and his bones cracked loudly as he explained:

“In short, Yūsuke’s S-cells are about to awaken.”

Even though Yūsuke’s parents and grandparents were all human, he is still a descendant of the demon race—[Great Demonic Generational Gap]!

Only demons of A-rank or higher can mate with humans and pass on their bloodline; Yūsuke’s generational gap allowed him to inherit the blood of his demon ancestors from dozens of generations ago.

When Yūsuke first died, his power and vessel were insufficient to reincarnate as a demon—but now, having reached the pinnacle of strength among humans, he absolutely qualifies.

Forty-four generations ago, when there was no barrier between the human world and the demon realm, the power sown by demons began manifesting within him!

As they spoke, a transformation was unfolding within Yūsuke: his body grew increasingly resilient, his spiritual energy more chaotic. When his life reached its end, his soul did not leave his body—in other words, his soul was undergoing transformation within it!

Senzui Shin’s brow twitched slightly. Ignoring the three men rushing to their deaths, he looked uneasily toward the “dead” Yūsuke.

Then Jia Ji snapped his fingers.

“Spell Card Declaration—‘Rupture of Space-Time’!”

A black spherical mass appeared in the sky; under the manipulation of boundary power, the sub-space passage connecting the two realms opened in an instant.

When Senzui Shin realized what had happened—

A fist. Esdeath’s fist.

Struck hard—straight into the demon realm, utterly obliterating him!

The next instant, the void that had swallowed Senzui Shin suddenly expanded, as if forcibly stretched wider.

The silver-blue-haired woman in military uniform gave no glance to anyone else, flying straight into the sub-space passage.

“Go!”

Feiying, Zangma, and Kōbara hesitated not a moment, leaping after her into the demon realm tunnel.

“This… this can’t be.”

Little Yama pounded the mirror, his mind reeling from the chaotic unfolding.

“Watch closely—Yūsuke’s father’s bloodline is awakening.”

With that, Jia Ji left the Spirit World with Hōyō Ri.

…

The transformation had reached its peak.

Heaven and earth seemed to freeze in that instant!

Suddenly—

The next second, Yūsuke’s aura changed.

Spiritual power became demonic energy!

Like a great dragon roaring, like a blazing sun awakening.

Demon—Yūsuke,

at this moment, was born!

The aura radiating from the reborn Yūsuke seized hearts and shattered souls, causing all things under heaven and earth to tremble!

He bared his sharp fangs and, the moment he revived, fixed his dangerous gaze upon the passage.

Demons? Who cares about that!

It means nothing!

At this very moment, he had only one goal, only one person in sight.

That was Senzui Shin!!

An astonishing battle intent erupted from him—like a butterfly breaking free from its cocoon—Yūsuke had now far surpassed his former self!

It was undeniable now: Yūsuke stood at a realm with no precedent.

“Go!”

Yūsuke took a step forward and vanished from this world, too narrow and fragile for him, heading toward the chaotic, irrational abyss.

…

Jia Ji’s voice sounded beside Genkai; towering men appeared upon the ruined earth.

“Everyone has their own stage for maximum power: birds’ stage is the sky, fish’s stage is water, humans’ stage is the earth, demon-kind’s stage is the demon realm…”

Hōyō Ri spoke succinctly: “Go!”

He vanished into the passage.

Jia Ji laughed wildly, flying into the passage with terrifying presence.

“Now then, demon realm’s stage, demon realm’s strongest—prepare to welcome me!”

He finally uttered that one word

—“Go.”
