Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 861: Chapter 864: Strange Blood Glow

Clang!

The sound of clashing metal resounded.

Jiang Chen drew the Blood Saber in one swift motion, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as his hand rose and the blade fell.

Whoosh!

Bloody Radiance lit up, and a longsword light instantly appeared in the air.

Chen Kun’s eyes crazed, he thrust a palm toward Sun Liang’s forehead.

Sensing the crisis, Sun Liang opened his eyes, gritted his teeth, and was about to interrupt the Auspicious Cloud Refinement, but catching sight of that streak of Bloody Radiance, Sun Liang closed his eyes, reassured.

Chen Kun furrowed his brows, eyeing the completely unguarded Sun Liang with a hint of perplexity, his heart hardened, and he continued his strike toward Sun Liang.

However, the next moment, Chen Kun’s expression drastically changed as a bloody sword light suddenly appeared in front of him, directly barring the way between him and Sun Liang.

Chen Kun panickedly tried to halt his forward momentum, but his leap was already at full force, and it was too late to stop!

Shick!

The sound of a blade entering flesh rang out, and Chen Kun, as if he had run into it himself, was instantly cleaved in two.

Whoosh!

The sword light flickered, and Chen Kun’s essence blood was instantly drained, turning into two mummified corpses that fell to the ground.

”Ah!”

”This...”

Tang Wanru, Lou Qiangqiang, and Mo Tiancheng, seeing Chen Kun’s corpses, instantly cried out and turned their heads in astonishment toward Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen frowned, flicked the Blood Saber in the air, and the sword light that had absorbed Chen Kun’s essence blood instantly appeared before Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen’s expression turned grave as he slowly extended his hand to touch the sword light.

Hum, hum, hum!

The sword light trembled a few times, emitting a dazzling bloody glow.

”What in the world is this?”

With a face full of surprise, Jiang Chen looked at the glowing sword light, a phenomenon he had never seen before.

The sword light gave off a feeling of closeness within Jiang Chen’s perception, as if a child had seen their parents.

Hum!

The Blood Saber also shook faintly.

Jiang Chen glanced at the Blood Saber, then back at the sword light, his eyes growing more puzzled.

”Mr. Jiang, where did you get this Blood-colored Tang Sword?” Mo Tiancheng asked, his expression grave as he looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen turned to Mo Tiancheng, ”This was found at a business associate’s home, and only later did I learn that it’s an outer disciple’s sacred weapon from the Blood Blade Sect!”

”Blood Blade Sect?!”

Mo Tiancheng cried out, then said with a serious face, ”The outer gate of the Blood Blade Sect doesn’t have a sacred weapon. The entire Blood Blade Sect has only one sacred weapon, that is the weapon used by the Blood Demon, the Blood Drink Demon Blade!”

”Blood Drink Demon Blade? This sword light absorbing essence blood ... is it related to this saber?” Jiang Chen’s brows were tightly knitted.

Mo Tiancheng glanced at the trembling Blood Saber, his expression solemn, ”Mr. Jiang, I’m not very clear on this matter, let’s inquire with the elder of the Chi Xiao Sect once we reach there; he should know more!”

”Alright!”

Jiang Chen nodded, took another look at the Blood Saber, felt a hint of longing from within the saber, and tentatively inserted the Blood Saber into the sword light before him.

Hum!

A wave of joy emanated from the Blood Saber, which vibrated intensely for a moment. The blade aura instantly merged into the Blood Saber, intensifying the bloody hue on its surface slightly.

Upon witnessing this scene, Lou Qiangqiang and the others displayed a look of horror in their eyes. Was the Blood Saber actually absorbing essence blood?!

Hmm?

Jiang Chen’s brow twitched. Just after the Blood Saber had absorbed the blade aura, a stream of blood essence, purer than the blood energy within his own body, flowed from within the Blood Saber into his body through the hilt.

With a sense of sinking in his heart, Jiang Chen sternly circulated his Inner Qi and focused on the trace of blood essence within him.

What puzzled Jiang Chen was that the blood energy did not cause any disturbance. It merely entered his Dantian.

Martial Artists cultivate inner strength, and the Dantian is where Inner Qi is stored. Jiang Chen had cultivated two completely different Cultivation Techniques, resulting in two seas of Inner Qi in his Dantian: one formed from blood essence and the other a pale golden Dragon Qi. Between the two energies, the Dragon Qi subtly dominated.

At this moment, that trace of blood essence merged into the sea of blood essence in the Dantian and completely integrated!

What was happening?

Feeling no abnormalities, Jiang Chen, with a puzzled expression, sheathed the Blood Saber and looked at the few people who watched him anxiously. He shook his head lightly, ”I’m fine. Let’s ask about it when we get to Chixiao Sect.”

Yan Hu and his companions nodded and turned their gaze to Sun Liang, who was nearly through with his breakthrough, their eyes filled with a hint of worry.

Mo Tiancheng gave Jiang Chen a deep look, a shade of deep pain crossing his eyes, matched with a stir of deep urgency from deep within.

Parting his lips, Mo Tiancheng seemed to want to say something but ultimately closed his mouth with a sigh, his urgency turning into a struggle.

Buzz Buzz Buzz!

The heavenly Auspicious Clouds vibrated and slowly merged into Sun Liang’s body, radiating a powerful authority.

Gradually, the authority waned, and Sun Liang slowly opened his eyes.

Whoosh!

Descending from midair, Sun Liang flashed in front of Jiang Chen and bowed deeply, his eyes filled with gratitude. ”Mr. Jiang, thank you!”

Sun Liang had realized what had happened. Jiang Chen had not only saved him but had also administered the Purple Flame Breakthrough Elixir, allowing him to advance to the Innate Realm.

This favor was heavier than a mountain!

”Let’s go!”

Jiang Chen nodded lightly, called out, and started walking down the road, his brows marked with worry that wouldn’t fade.

The Blood Saber was his first weapon and the most smoothly wielded weapon he possessed. Now, a great deal of his strength relied on the Blood Saber.

Although he had now practiced the Heavenly Dragon Art, he was currently unable to control the strongest move of the Heavenly Dragon Art, ”Descending Divine Dragon.”

He did not like this feeling.

Moreover, with the Blood Saber, the power of the Blood Dance Dharmic Heaven was much stronger. The two martial systems were his most potent trump cards. Losing the Blood Saber now would mean crippling the Blood Dance Dharmic Heaven and one of his martial systems, which he was unwilling to accept.

However, if not deactivated, the situation with the blade aura devouring essence blood deeply worried him, recalling that time the person trapped in the palace had once triggered his Heart Demon.

The current situation drew his concern about possibly triggering his bloodthirsty Heart Demon once more!

Yan Hu and the others also seemed less jubilant, occasionally casting worried glances at Jiang Chen, which puzzled Sun Liang. Were these people so unhappy even after defeating their enemy?

Lu Chengfeng drove the Bentley slowly behind the group, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Jiang Chen; this was not the first time Jiang Chen had assisted him.

In Lu Chengfeng’s heart, as he had said, Jiang Chen’s status had already surpassed that of Chixiao Sect!

”Mr. Jiang!” As they reached the car, Mo Tiancheng seemed to have made up his mind and called out softly.

Jiang Chen stopped, looking puzzled at Mo Tiancheng.

”This trip to Chixiao Sect... don’t ask the old ancestor of Chixiao Sect!”

Mo Tiancheng spoke sternly, ”And from now on, please try to use that blood-colored long knife as little as possible!”
