Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist - Chapter 99
Chapter 99: Chapter 70: Lord of the Black Lotus Incense! Qi and Blood Tier 4!_3
Although both were in the Divine Bravery Stage, a wave of fear rose in the heart of the man in blue. Faced with Su Changkong, who had killed several people in succession, he did not have much courage to resist head-on and kept retreating backward.
“Quite skilled!”
At that moment, a somewhat sharp voice rang out, and a gray figure had already intercepted him.
It was the man in gray who Su Changkong had felt earlier, the one with the threatening presence!
The man in gray had already drawn the longsword that he had been carrying on his back. This Longsword was long and thin, which would seem clumsy and fragile in the hands of the average person, but when the gray-clad man wielded the Longsword, facing Su Changkong’s astonishing chop, he pressed the sword down, fiercely clashing head-on with Su Changkong’s Blade Qi-laden Upward Slash.
“Clang!”
The crisp, ear-piercing sound of metal striking metal echoed, and the slender blade of the sword burst forth with an unparalleled great force, pressing down the Iron-Cutting Sword and creating a deep, cracked indentation in the ground! Su Changkong was also somewhat startled. Although he had been refining the sword for only half a month and was already on his second chop, with its power somewhat diminished compared to the first, it was still capable of instantly slaying a peer at the same level. Yet this man in gray was able to suppress it with a thin sword head-on, which showed the strength and cultivation level of his opponent. Looking across Clearwater City, he feared he would not find a second master of this caliber!
Su Changkong dared not be careless. He took a deep breath as the Turtle Breathing True Qi inside his body circulated rapidly, like a stream rushing, reaching his limbs and bones. The muscles all over his body swelled, and he lifted the sword with both hands, finally flipping open the Longsword that had been pressing down on the Iron-Cutting Sword.
Iron Cutting Blade Technique. Splitting Cut!
Su Changkong bellowed, raising the Iron-Cutting Sword with both hands high above his head and bringing it down in a top-to-bottom chop. This was the final technique of the Iron Cutting Blade Technique, and also the most powerful. The slash, carrying the remaining Blade Qi, was like a cold meteor plummeting from the sky.
“Willow Sweep Sword Technique!”
The man in gray, facing Su Changkong’s all-out chop, also dare not be careless.
He shouted and used the Longsword to block.
“Clang!”
The chop slashed onto the blade of the sword, causing the slender sword to bend downwards, almost to the point of breaking. Astonishingly, the man in gray s palm, which was holding the sword, input a robust True Qi, which straightened the bent Longsword and forcefully diverted Su Changkong’s chop! This display of profound mastery in strength and swordsmanship was something Su Changkong had only seen in his life!
“Chief Liu has finally made a move!”
“With Chief Liu stepping in, this lad is going to be sliced a thousand times over!”
The remaining two masters from the Black Lotus Sect both breathed a sigh of relief, their faces showing a trace of excitement.
This man in gray, surnamed Liu and known as Liu Bairen, was no ordinary disciple of the Black Lotus Sect; he was a chief in Clearwater City, managing and planning the affairs of the Black Lotus Sect within the territory of Clearwater City, holding high authority, and with personal strength unmatched by anyone else in a place like Clearwater City!
Liu Bairen narrowed his eyes, “Your chop gets weaker with each strike… I see, it must be some kind of advanced martial arts technique that can burst beyond ’ limits, right?”
Liu Bairen clearly felt that Su Changkong’s three chops each were weaker than the last and understood that Su Changkong had practiced some unique martial arts technique!
“All three chops exhausted…”
Su Changkong felt a slight weakness. Fortunately, he had been refining his sword for over half a month. Although the power burst forth was far from as strong as during his hundred-day refinement when facing Shi Zijian, it also meant that his own consumption was less, not leaving him nearly fainting after three chops.
Liu Bairen’s face then turned ice-cold, “To kill my sect’s disciples before me… Today, I shall make you wail in death!”
Previously, Su Changkong acted too quickly and decisively, slaying three people before Liu Bairen had a chance to intervene. That several people came to surround and kill Su Changkong, resulting in casualties, undoubtedly made Liu Bairen feel like he had lost face.
“Boom!”
Liu Bairen took a slight step forward, and the ground trembled faintly. The blood vessels all over his body squirmed, his blood rushing extremely fast, and his skin glowed with a faint red light. From the pores of his skin, a blood-red mist seeped out, entwining around his body as if he had donned a layer of blood-red veil.
“A Qi-Blood Realm martial artist…”
Seeing this, Su Changkong’s heart grew even heavier. Liu Bairen could so easily catch his two chops, Su Changkong already understood the other was not a Body Refinement martial artist but a Qi-Blood Realm one!
A Qi-Blood Realm martial artist undergoes twelve transformations of Qi and Blood, with every three transformations forming one level. The first level of the Qi-Blood Realm is the Qi-Blood Veil, where the visibly manifesting Qi and Blood resemble a veil when it circulates.
The second level is the Qi-Blood Wolf Smoke, forming a smoke that rises to the sky!
The third level is the Qi-Blood Long Dragon, where the Qi and Blood condense into a Divine Dragon, coiling in the air, imposing and powerful enough to subdue thousands of troops.
The fourth level of the Qi-Blood Realm is the Qi-Blood Furnace, with the Qi and Blood resembling a huge cauldron, burning hot like fire, capable of smelting all things. Among Qi-Blood Realm martial artists who reach this level, not even one in a hundred can be found!
Shi Zijian, who Su Changkong faced earlier, had shown a hint of the traits of a Qi-Blood Realm martial artist, but it seemed he was injured, and his Qi and Blood were hidden, not fully displayed. However, this Liu Bairen before him was a fully-fledged, peak-conditioned Qi-Blood Realm martial artist!
Whew!
An oppressive force bore down, making Su Changkong feel as if a thousand catties were pressing down on him, his own True Qi and blood circulation slowing down.
“This is realm suppression… The formidable Qi and Blood of a Qi-Blood Realm martial artist are enough to make an ordinary martial artist pale and shaky, losing the ability to fight!”
Su Changkong’s expression turned grim.
It was said that a powerful Qi-Blood Realm martial artist, merely by releasing the transformed potent Qi and Blood, could oppress someone to the point of fainting on the spot!
