Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

Chapter 75: Chapter 74: Condensing Bloodline Power

Liu Ming struck, channeling his bloodline’s True Qi. His Sword Momentum instantly increased by thirty percent.

But Ling Fei remained unfazed.

SWOOSH!

Ling Fei’s sword slashed out. There was nothing flashy about it—only a sharp Sword Momentum and a Cold Qi as tyrannical as a True Dragon.

The aura of this strike was clearly much stronger than before.

Then, Sword Qi swept from Ling Fei’s Long Sword, raging toward Liu Ming’s river of Sword Qi.

Instantly, their two rivers of Sword Qi crashed into each other.

BANG!

On the tournament stage, the fierce clash of Sword Qi let out a muffled explosion.

An Extreme Cold Qi then rode the momentum of the clash, attempting to freeze Liu Ming’s Sword Qi solid.

However, Liu Ming was composed. With a flick of his wrist, he swept his Long Sword upward.

”Blood Qi like a sword, yet also like a snake!” a deep voice escaped Liu Ming’s lips.

The momentum of the Long Sword in his hand skyrocketed.

A dense stream of his bloodline’s True Qi was poured into the Long Sword.

Then, that bloodline True Qi erupted like a sword, following the motion of his strike.

At that moment, Ling Fei’s Sword Qi was raging forward, carrying with it the power of an Ice Seal.

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, Liu Ming’s previous attack began to freeze over.

But just then, Liu Ming’s Long Sword moved, unleashing a terrifying Power.

That Power directly shattered the ice crystals.

The Cold Dao Sword Qi that had burst from Ling Fei’s Long Sword was instantly scattered.

In the next moment, he flicked his Long Sword, and the Sword Qi howled. It was as if countless Spiritual Snakes had transformed into swords, all stabbing toward Ling Fei.

SWISH, SWISH!

Sword Qi like snakes, snakes like swords, flew at Ling Fei.

Each one moved with an eerie grace, like a dancing Spiritual Snake, completely locking down Ling Fei’s position.

At this point, the momentum of Ling Fei’s attack had been blocked and his Sword Momentum had waned. Faced with Liu Ming’s sudden explosive strike, he had clearly lost the initiative.

From a distance, the Sword Qi looked like snakes, and also like swords. Wherever it passed, the Void howled with a fierce wind.

Its sharp aura sent a chill down the spines of even the Innate Realm students watching from afar.

”Is this the Liu Clan’s Spiritual Snake Sword?” an Innate Realm Cultivator asked, his eyes wide as he stared ahead.

”Sword Qi like a river, the sword like a snake, and the snake lies dormant in the river, waiting to deliver a thunderous blow. Cousin Liu Ming has clearly merged the Spiritual Snake Sword and the Celestial River Sword Technique perfectly. With one more step, he’ll be comparable to a Cultivator at the Innate Mid Stage Realm. He truly is the prodigy of our clan!” Liu Yuan’s eyes flashed, stunned by Liu Ming’s strike.

To have such profound attainments in the Sword Dao at his age... if he were given a little more time, how many people could possibly contend with him?

”Liu Ming’s talent is indeed remarkable.”

”He possesses Bloodline Power, and his comprehension of Martial Arts surpasses that of ordinary people. This Liu Ming’s future is limitless!”

Many instructors had high hopes for Liu Ming.

”Heh, now let’s see how Ling Fei handles this,” the crowd chuckled.

Even Dean Han narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the stage.

”Your little lover is in a bad spot!” a senior female student said.

”Liu Ming’s Sword Momentum is truly difficult to block.” Huang Xiaoman clenched her fists, her delicate brows furrowing with worry.

”This Ling Fei... is this all he’s capable of?” Zhou Xiaoyu shook her head. ’It can’t be.’

Otherwise, how could he have so easily killed an Innate Realm Demon Python?

Liu Ming’s strike had captured the hearts of everyone present.

Everyone stared intently, breaking into a cold sweat for Ling Fei.

’I never expected his Spiritual Snake Sword to have such a profound killing move!’ As the Sword Qi rushed at him, Ling Fei also sensed the danger.

Liu Ming’s strike was truly ingenious.

First, he had his sword lie dormant within the Sword Qi, letting Ling Fei attack freely.

Then, just as Ling Fei’s momentum was about to be exhausted, he launched a sudden, powerful counterattack.

Caught off guard like this, it was truly difficult to deal with such an attack.

A dormant Spiritual Snake often delivers a fatal blow. This was the true essence of the Spiritual Snake Sword!

Move with the Wind!

At this critical moment, Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit stirred. His body moved with the wind, drifting to the side to dodge the perilous strike.

However, no sooner had Ling Fei dodged the attack than Liu Ming struck again, his sword slashing forward.

Innate Realm Cultivators had extremely sharp senses. The moment Ling Fei moved, Liu Ming perceived it and struck immediately, hoping to catch him off guard.

SWOOSH!

The Sword Qi surged forward like a rushing river, about ten feet long, threatening to submerge Ling Fei.

A cultivator at the Nine Layers of Body Tempering could project Sword Qi three inches.

After stepping into the Innate Realm, that distance could reach three feet!

However, after replenishing their True Qi and stabilizing at the Early-stage Innate Realm, a full-power strike could project True Qi for ten feet.

With an all-out effort, the erupting True Qi could truly be like a long river sweeping forth with immense momentum.

But that would consume a great deal of True Qi.

Now, Liu Ming’s True Qi surged forward, his Sword Qi as sharp as a tidal wave, causing the very Void to tremble.

Even Ling Fei’s body, which had just drifted away with the wind, was affected.

An ordinary person would be forced into a completely passive position in this situation, doomed to defeat.

However, in that brief instant, Ling Fei had gained a moment to breathe. He circulated the Cold Chi True Qi within his body, pouring it into the Long Sword in his hand.

”Sword Qi like a dragon!” Ling Fei muttered.

Then, Sword Qi howled from his blade.

The Sword Momentum was turbulent, like a rushing torrent, yet as it raged forward, it was as tyrannical as a dragon.

This time, Ling Fei had clearly drawn upon a sliver of True Dragon Momentum.

BANG!

Instantly, this Sword Qi crashed against Liu Ming’s Sword Momentum.

This time, it was a tyrannical, crushing blow.

Wherever the Cold Chi Sword Energy passed, it directly shattered Liu Ming’s Sword Qi.

Then, the Sword Qi continued its rampage.

Under this tyrannical momentum, Liu Ming’s wrist shuddered. His Long Sword, still within the Sword River, was nearly knocked from his grasp before it could transform into a dormant Spiritual Snake to strike. A colossal force carrying True Dragon Momentum raged toward him, and within it, Sword Qi howled with unparalleled sharpness.

At the same time, a wave of Extreme Cold Qi followed.

In an instant, Liu Ming faced an assault of three different momentums.

They were the True Dragon Momentum, the Ice Seal’s momentum, and Sword Momentum!

”What powerful Sword Momentum!” Liu Ming’s expression changed drastically as the force swept toward him.

He immediately channeled all the Blood Qi in his body, pouring it into his Long Sword.

WHOOSH!

He flicked his Long Sword to deflect the attacking force, but his body hastily retreated.

But the Sword Qi was too fast and still slammed into him.

THUD! THUD!

Liu Ming stumbled backward again and again.

Cold Qi spread across his clothes, forming ice crystals. Even the True Qi in his meridians felt as if it were about to freeze solid.

”Such tyrannical Cold Dao True Qi!” Liu Ming’s face changed drastically.

He then desperately circulated his Bloodline Power to dissolve and expel the Cold Dao True Qi.

By this time, however, Ling Fei had already landed, completely neutralizing the earlier crisis.

”Ling Fei’s last strike seemed to have an extra kind of momentum,” an Innate Realm cultivator on the Observation Platform remarked, his eyes flashing.

They could clearly feel the difference in the aura of Ling Fei’s attack.

”Thank goodness.” Huang Xiaoman breathed a secret sigh of relief.

”It seems your little lover has some skills after all!” Mu Xue smiled, also secretly relieved.

Then, her gaze returned to the two youths on the tournament stage.

It seemed everyone knew that the real showdown had finally begun.

Because both combatants were now fighting with their full strength.

”I never thought that not only is your Sword Momentum fierce and your Cold Qi overwhelming, but your Momentum of Martial Arts is also extremely strong.” After expelling the Cold Qi from his body, Liu Ming looked up at Ling Fei, his eyes filled with gravity. From that last exchange, he had deeply felt the power of the young man before him.

”But your Bloodline Power has left me a little disappointed,” Ling Fei said, holding his Long Sword.

In their exchange just now, the only thing that had surprised Ling Fei was the sudden sneak attack.

However, if such an attack didn’t succeed on the first try, it would be difficult to achieve the same element of surprise again.

Therefore, Ling Fei was somewhat disappointed in this so-called Spiritual Snake Bloodline.

”You won’t be disappointed for long.” At these words, Liu Ming’s eyelid twitched, and a sinister glint flickered in his eyes. ’When has anyone ever dared to speak to me like this?’ And yet, he was now being looked down upon by a disciple from a Humble Family. This infuriated him, as if his dignity had been challenged.

However, Liu Ming was clearly very composed.

After that cold retort, he began to build up his power, preparing to deliver a devastating blow without acting rashly.

Seeing this, Ling Fei did not let his guard down.

Although he had been disappointed by Liu Ming’s previous move, it didn’t mean he looked down on his opponent.

’After all, the Liu Clan’s bloodline is extremely famous. It can’t be this simple.’

He had only spoken like that to provoke Liu Ming into using his full strength.

”As a Spiritual Snake, I summon my Blood Qi and ignite my Divine Might!” Liu Ming murmured, desperately trying to stimulate the Spiritual Snake Bloodline within him.

Instantly, within his Blood Qi, a surge of Bloodline Power began to churn.

Within his True Qi, it was as if the Bloodline Power had been awakened.

As True Qi flowed through his body, it was as if ancient Spiritual Snakes were awakening one by one, unleashing a terrifying Power from within.

That Power caused Liu Ming’s entire aura to surge once more.

His long hair whipped through the air, cutting through the Void with a sharp, whistling sound.

His current aura was now completely comparable to that of a Cultivator in the Innate Mid Stage Realm.

Even an average Cultivator at the Innate Mid Stage Realm would feel an inexplicable wariness toward this aura.

Liu Ming’s momentum continued to build. Blood Qi suffused his body, and faint red markings began to spread across his skin.

Even his eyes turned crimson, with intricate patterns weaving within them.

Clearly, at this moment, Liu Ming was going all out, having fully activated his Bloodline Power.

”Next, I’ll let you witness the might of my Liu Clan’s Spiritual Snake Bloodline!” a deep voice boomed from Liu Ming’s mouth.

Then, he took a large step forward, his gaze locked onto Ling Fei.

As he moved, his aura rolled forward like a great wave.

WENG!

As the wave of energy crashed down, Ling Fei felt an immense pressure from the aura.

This aura was even stronger than Qin Hui’s had been.

’This Liu Clan’s Bloodline Power is indeed quite impressive,’ Ling Fei nodded to himself.

In battle, the ability to suddenly increase one’s combat strength could often turn the tide and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.

In comparison, Liu Ming truly had an advantage over ordinary Cultivators.

No wonder the people of the Liu Clan were so arrogant.

However, for Ling Fei, this trump card of Liu Ming’s was far from enough.

’Condense my True Dragon Momentum!’ As Liu Ming strode forward, Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit stirred and sank into the True Dragon Visualization Image.

At that moment, the aura around his body also skyrocketed.

He stood his ground, giving off a vast, unshakeable presence.

His gaze was disdainful, carrying with it the might of a Monarch.

”Ling Fei’s aura has increased too,” the Innate Realm Cultivators in the distance quickly picked up on the fluctuation.
