Chapter 206: Chapter 175: Bloodline Awakening_1

Translator: 549690339

Not only do the monster beasts of the Sea Race have special bloodlines, but the Human Clan possess them too, though they are considerably less common.

Anyone with a bloodline has a unique physiology, which gives them considerable advantages in both battle and cultivation.

Similar to the Sea Race and monster beasts, the potency of the special bloodline is directly proportionate to the enhancements it provides to one’s strength and cultivation.

The so-called Bloodline Awakening, is essentially the explosion of bloodline power.

The greater the potency of the bloodline, the earlier one can ignite the bloodline power.

That Luo Qingchen could activate her bloodline power during the Qi Cultivation Stage implies that her bloodline is quite potent.

“How strange that a cultivator with a bloodline resides on Lonely Sword Peak! Normally, such people wouldn’t be quartered on a declining peak like that!” Luo Qingchen’s sudden Bloodline Awakening sparked a major uproar in the audience.

“Indeed, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers amongst our ranks. Good thing I didn’t bet against you!”

The silver-eyed young man feigned surprise.

The ethereal lady did not utter a word; her eyes merely narrowed slightly.

“How come I never knew Sister Luo had a special bloodline?” Shang YaoYao uttered in amazement.

She frowned at Xu Mu, sounding a bit annoyed. “Why didn’t you say so earlier? You had me worried!”

Xu Mu was at a loss for words.

How could he have known? He had merely suggested earlier that Luo Qingchen had an ace up her sleeve.

He glanced at Li Heng and found him grinding his teeth, his body trembling slightly, fingers clenched until they turned pale.

Could there be some hidden backstory here?

All sorts of ideas floated through Xu Mu’s mind.

As Luo Qingchen’s Bloodline Awakening took effect on the ring, the course of the battle took a significant turn.

Her entire body emitted an ominous chill. The cloud beneath her feet froze solid, and the ice quickly spread forth in all directions.

The Elder with the golden pill of the two fighters’ ring, glanced at Luo Qingchen without uttering a word.

On the other side, Bai Yingwu’s face turned serious, her hands forming Sword Jue, she wanted to destroy Luo Qingchen’s flying sword before she could fully activate her bloodline power.

Roar!

The white icy dragon sword suddenly exploded, its power multiplying several times over. It roared so loud it seemed to echo in the highest heavens.

This was Bai Yingwu’s true strength, her previous exchange with Luo Qingchen felt like child’s play in comparison.

With a single bite, the massive dragon swallowed Luo Qingchen’s flying sword, and a tremendous Sword Qi exploded forth.

Crack!

Hum!

Luo Qingchen’s flying sword, let out a mournful cry, completely shattered and deformed, falling to the ground.

The flying sword, linked to its wielder’s soul, took a toll on Luo Qingchen as it was destroyed. She wobbled slightly, a trickle of blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.

“What is Sister Luo up to? Why isn’t she doing anything?”

At this point, Shang YaoYao was even more anxious than Luo Qingchen.

“Now that you’ve lost your flying sword, I’d like to see how you plan to fight me!”

Bai Yingwu, who had managed to destroy the flying sword first, couldn’t help but brim with confidence. She manipulated her flying sword into numerous sword shadows, launching a fierce attack on Luo Qingchen.

‘How formidable; I fear that even the average Foundation Establishment Stage disciple could not withstand it!”

Observing those densely packed sword shadows, numbering in the hundreds, Xu Mu couldn’t help but compliment.

This move was somewhat similar to the Ten Thousand Spirit Sword Jue that Chi Shouyuan launched before. However, when Chi Shouyuan decimated three Qi Cultivation Late Stage disciples with a single strike, he relied on his tier four spirit sword, a very different scenario from Bai Yingwu’s current situation.

Moreover, Bai Yingwu’s move was even stronger and seemed effortless.

Of course, comparing Bai Yingwu to Chi Shouyuan is inherently unfair.

One was the chief of a small clan from a remote area, while the other was the pearl in the palm of a hegemonic sect and a golden pill family.

Even without using any spiritual artifact, Bai Yingwu could take on ten Chi Shouyuans alone.

There was no doubt about Bai Yingwu’s strength, far surpassing the ordinary disciples. However, the awakened bloodline of Luo Qingchen was stronger than anyone expected.

Her eyes sparkling with a cold light, she only needed to squeeze out a simple “condensation” spell to gather a vast ice wall that separated her completely from Bai Yingwu.

Boom boom boom!

The shadow of swords constantly bombarded the ice wall. It was like hailstones falling to the ground, making continuous crackling noises.

Countless ice crystals flew around, but the ice wall remained unbroken.

“Damn it!”

The attack had lasted for ten breaths. Even the always confident Bai Yingwu couldn’t help but start to worry.

Hesitating for a moment, she quickly withdrew her flying swords to defend herself, preparing to play a delaying tactic.

The outburst of the bloodline and the consumption of casting a spell were the same, requiring massive energy. With Luo Qingchen’s cultivation reaching such intensity, she definitely couldn’t maintain it for long. As long as Bai Yingwu could delay for a while, Luo Qingchen would undeniably get defeated. Though, it was very different from her initial grand proclamation of a swift victory, she could not afford the risk of a backfire.

“Done attacking? Now it’s my turn!”

Luo Qingchen’s expression did not change a bit, as if devoid of emotion. She stretched out her fingers, quickly pinched a few sword spells, and the ice wall shattered with a booming sound. Nine long icy swords formed instantaneously and shot towards Bai Yingwu like lightning.

The ice swords were too fast for Bai Yingwu to form sword shadows to resist. Her gaze was focused, and with a single touch to the hilt, her flying sword shattered, transforming into irregular shards.

These shards emitted rays of light, interconnecting each other and forming an egg-like barrier, protecting Bai Yingwu in the middle.

“She can actually split it? An attack that combines both offense and defense! How dishonorable!”

Shang YaoYao couldn’t help but curse.

II II

Xu Mu was speechless.

He didn’t perceive anything dishonorable about it.

The moment Bai Yingwu set up her defense, Luo Qingchen’s ice crystal swords came raining down.

Boom boom!

The two forces continuously collided, making sounds reminiscent of clashing metals, causing the watching disciples to frown.

No one could have imagined that Luo Qingchen’s ice swords, formed by spiritual power, could be so sturdy.

“She truly has a unique bloodline! But I wonder how long she can persist! ”

Bai Yingwu’s shield emitted a powerful light, fortunately hanging on.

If first round didn’t work, they would go for a second!

Under Luo Qingchen’s control, the nine icy swords surrounded Bai Yingwu, forming a sword array and launching incessant attacks.

The offensive and defensive tides had taken an about-turn in a short time.

Now it’s about who lasts the longest!

Is Sister Luo okay?” Shang YaoYao asked with concern.

As time moved forward, Luo Qingchen’s lips were again bleeding, and even blood began to stream from her eyes, presenting a terrifying sight.

Obviously, the bloodline awakening was putting a great strain on Luo Qingchen’s body.

“Sister is about to win!”

Xu Mu looked at Luo Qingchen, then at Bai Yingwu. Bai Yingwu was no better off, her face was pale, eyes bloodshot, the shield was gloomy and on the brink of breaking.

And with a crack!

Bai Yingwu’s fragmented sword shield shattered and scattered to the ground.

The nine ice crystal swords, maintaining their momentum, continued to shoot towards Bai Yingwu. Depleted of spiritual power, Bai Yingwu had no chance to dodge. As the nine ice swords were about to turn her into a honeycomb, a Golden Pill Elder timely raised his hand and issued a sword light, instantly shattering the nine ice crystal swords.

Bai Yingwu’s crisis was resolved, but Luo Qingchen, involved in the whole melee, spurted out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

“The winner is Bai Yingwu!”

“What!”
