Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

Chapter 76: Chapter 75: Bloodline Secret Technique

Liu Ming fully unleashed his Spiritual Snake Bloodline.

His momentum soared, becoming intimidating.

But Ling Fei was currently condensing his True Dragon Momentum. Dragon Qi roiled within him, and the Light Patterns on his spine squirmed as if he were about to transform into a dragon and ascend to the heavens.

His momentum was also climbing.

”I am the Spiritual Snake, my sword is the snake, I am the sword!” At that moment, Liu Ming whispered as a current of Sword Intent coalesced around him.

In that instant, it was as if he had become a Spiritual Snake, and also as if he was about to become a sword!

This was clearly the point of achieving the Unity of Man and Sword!

Liu Ming’s momentum was astonishing.

”Is he about to achieve the Unity of Man and Sword?” someone asked.

”No, he has only just touched upon this Realm,” a student at the Late Stage of Innate said. ”However, if he takes one more step, his Realm will reach the Mid Stage of Innate. To have such a high Cultivation before the age of sixteen... he truly lives up to his name as a top genius among the freshmen!”

At this point, even the older students were filled with respect for Liu Ming.

”What about Ling Fei!” In the next moment, everyone’s gazes fell upon Ling Fei.

They saw that the momentum emanating from Ling Fei had also grown increasingly immense. It was in no way inferior to Liu Ming’s.

It even possessed an extra hint of dominance.

”Could it be? Is his Realm also about to reach the Mid Stage of Innate?” Seeing this, many people revealed looks of doubt.

”Both of them are heaven’s chosen!” On the instructors’ platform, Dean Han stroked his beard and smiled.

”It’s truly a battle between two tigers!” The other instructors and directors were all filled with anticipation.

The atmosphere in the arena had clearly reached its peak.

Just then, Liu Ming finally made his move.

Sword like a rainbow, man like a sword!

A low voice rang out.

The next moment, Liu Ming moved. He leaped into the air, Long Sword in hand, and shot forward like an arrow.

His sword strike was like a rainbow, and his body seemed to merge with the blade.

SWOOSH!

Instantly, from a distance, all anyone could see was a single Sword Rainbow piercing the Void, aimed straight for Ling Fei. Its speed was like a flash of lightning.

An unstoppable momentum caused many people to shiver involuntarily.

However, just as Liu Ming moved, Ling Fei also struck.

’My body is like a dragon, I am like a sword!’

’True Dragon Breaks the Heavens!’

As the whisper escaped him, Ling Fei also leaped up. It was as if he had transformed into a True Dragon, and as if he had become one with his sword, shooting forward.

Instantly, on the tournament stage, two Sword Rainbows shot toward each other like a pair of arrows.

Wherever the Sword Rainbows passed, Sword Qi howled, creating a fierce screaming sound as it tore through the Void.

BANG, BANG!

The Sword Qi collided, letting out a series of muffled explosions.

Then, the crowd saw the two Long Swords crash into each other.

This was a duel of Power, a clash of Sword Momentum!

CLANG!

A crisp sound rang out as Sword Qi raged like a tidal wave, erupting from the point where the two swords met.

The two forces clashed, threatening to ravage both Ling Fei and Liu Ming.

However, Ling Fei’s Sword Momentum was sharp and fierce. His Sword Qi raged forth like a striking True Dragon.

Not only that, but Ling Fei’s entire body also erupted with True Dragon Momentum.

This True Dragon Momentum merged with his Sword Momentum, directly repelling Liu Ming’s Sword Qi.

The myriad streams of Sword Qi, which resembled Spiritual Snakes, shattered inch by inch. They were simply no match for Ling Fei’s Sword Momentum.

Then, his Sword Momentum pressed its advantage and swept forward. The Cold Chi Sword Energy erupted like a True Dragon, and wherever the Sword Qi passed, it began to Ice Seal Liu Ming’s Sword Qi piece by piece.

BUZZ!

After Ice Sealing Liu Ming’s Sword Qi, the ice crystals shattered.

Subsequently, the tidal wave of Ling Fei’s Sword Momentum slammed directly into Liu Ming.

BANG!

The Sword Qi struck. The Sword Qi protecting Liu Ming’s body disintegrated, and he was sent flying backward.

THUD!

He then landed awkwardly on the ground.

”Liu Ming was sent flying!” Seeing this, everyone in the distance was stunned.

”Cousin Liu Ming activated his Bloodline Power and even condensed his Sword Momentum, on the verge of achieving the Unity of Man and Sword, yet he still couldn’t contend with Ling Fei?” Liu Yuan had a look of utter shock. One had to know that Liu Ming’s last strike could have rivaled a Cultivator at the Innate Mid Stage Realm!

And yet, he was sent flying.

’Just now, I only used sixty percent of my strength,’ Ling Fei murmured as he gracefully landed after sending Liu Ming flying.

At the same time, he was contemplating the Sword Momentum he had just unleashed, trying to constantly brand it into his mind to achieve the true Realm of Unity of Dragon and Sword.

’How... how could I lose?’ After Liu Ming landed, his eyes flashed. A ripple finally disturbed his perpetually arrogant face. His gaze was as cold and sharp as a snake’s. He slammed his palm on the ground and shot back to his feet. Immediately, the Blood Qi in his body surged, expelling the Cold Qi that had invaded his meridians.

Then, he held his Long Sword and pointed it at Ling Fei from a distance.

”Spiritual Snake Emerges from the Cave!” Liu Ming’s gaze hardened. He leaped up, transforming into a Spiritual Snake emerging from its cave, and thrust his sword at Ling Fei.

The sword thrust came with menacing momentum, its sharp Sword Qi already raging toward Ling Fei.

”The Spiritual Snake Bloodline is indeed powerful, but you’re still lacking if you think you can defeat me with it.” Seeing Liu Ming’s sudden attack, Ling Fei appeared completely unfazed. He simply stood his ground. With a flick of the Long Sword in his hand, a surge of True Dragon Momentum began to gather. Then, he mused internally.

’If my body is like a dragon, any casual strike should also possess True Dragon Momentum. I don’t need to take on a dragon’s form and leap out to unleash it.’

Through these continuous exchanges, Ling Fei’s control over his True Dragon Momentum was constantly improving.

SWISH!

And so, with a flick of his Long Sword, Sword Qi howled forth like a soaring Qi Dragon, flying to intercept Liu Ming.

His comprehension of the True Dragon Momentum had clearly improved. He no longer needed to go all out to deliver a powerful blow.

He was clearly on the verge of reaching the Realm of condensing True Dragon Intent.

At this rate, he was nearly comparable to an expert who had comprehended Sword Intent.

BANG!

Wherever the Sword Qi reached, Liu Ming’s Sword Momentum was immediately blocked. His soaring body froze in the Void.

A wave of Cold Qi even spread out, Ice Sealing his Sword Qi piece by piece.

”It seems Liu Ming is still a bit weaker than Ling Fei!”

Seeing this, a Cultivator on the Observation Platform sighed.

With Ling Fei and Liu Ming fighting like this, the difference in their strength was already clear.

Therefore, there was little left to anticipate.

”Is Ling Fei’s talent about to become unrivaled in Celestial River Academy?” Qin Rong wore a solemn expression, his gaze extremely cold.

Ling Fei’s strength made him feel immense pressure.

If this junior continued to grow, he might one day be able to contend with the academy’s legendary figures, Shangguan Wan’Er and Liu Rulong.

’If that happened, the entire Qin Clan wouldn’t be able to touch this junior at all!’

’How could we even speak of revenge then?’

BUZZ!

The Sword Qi clashed. The Sword Qi released from Liu Ming’s Long Sword turned into ice crystals and shattered.

It looked as though Liu Ming was about to be defeated once again.

”Ling Fei is about to win!” many people exclaimed upon seeing this.

In the eyes of the crowd, the outcome of this battle was already decided.

”This Brother Ling is really something!” Mu Xue’s eyes narrowed into a charming smile.

”No way, Xiaoman! I’ve decided, I can’t let you have Junior Ling Fei!” Next to Huang Xiaoman, a beautiful upperclassman’s eyes burned with passion. She shot a look at Huang Xiaoman, looking feisty and ready to compete with her. Such an outstanding genius was enough to make anyone’s heart race.

’That kid... he’s actually so strong.’ Huang Xiaoman rolled her eyes, but inwardly, she was happy for Ling Fei.

At this moment, Ling Fei had clearly become the center of everyone’s attention.

However, just then, a cold, harsh light appeared in Liu Ming’s eyes.

Then, a new momentum gathered around him. Light Patterns squirmed between his brows as a surge of Blood Qi converged toward his eyes.

If one looked closely, they could see blood-red patterns condensing within his pupils.

In that instant, Liu Ming’s eyes turned crimson and demonic.

Within them, a Spiritual Snake seemed to lie coiled.

”Spiritual Snake Eyes, Soul Capturing!” Then, the crowd saw the corner of Liu Ming’s mouth curl into a sinister arc. His lips parted, and the low words tumbled out. Before the sound had even faded, his eyes flashed violently. The blood-red patterns within them rippled like the surface of a lake.

BUZZ!

As the ripples spread, the Void before Ling Fei’s eyes seemed to transform.

A crimson world appeared, like a Spiritual Snake, wrapping itself around Ling Fei.

Then, his Heart Spirit froze.

And just like that, Ling Fei’s expression stiffened. The Long Sword in his hand paused, and the Sword Qi that was about to strike Liu Ming completely dissipated.

Thus, Liu Ming’s crisis was averted.

But Ling Fei himself had fallen into a daze.

”What happened to Ling Fei?” Seeing this, the people who had just been cheering for Ling Fei were all frozen in place.

Their hearts leaped into their throats.

Ling Fei was clearly about to defeat Liu Ming. How could such a sudden change occur?

Looking at Ling Fei, he seemed to be in a complete daze, utterly powerless to fight back!

Didn’t that make him a lamb waiting for the slaughter?

Everyone was baffled.

”Not good! Liu Ming has used the Liu Clan’s Bloodline Secret Technique, Soul Capturing!” On the instructors’ platform, Shangguan Hong’s expression changed drastically.

”Only when the Liu Clan Bloodline is concentrated to the absolute extreme can one condense the Spiritual Snake Eyes and activate the Soul Capturing Technique. I never thought that at such a young age, Liu Ming could already activate his Spiritual Snake Eyes and perform Soul Capturing. It seems he isn’t much weaker than his cousin, Liu Rulong!”

Director Pang’s face also paled.

”This time, Ling Fei has lost.” Zhou Xiaoyu’s delicate brows furrowed as she sighed softly, ”What a pity.”

If it weren’t for Liu Ming’s Bloodline Eye Technique, how could Ling Fei possibly lose?

It was a regrettable outcome.

”How dare you profane my Liu Clan’s bloodline?” Just as the crowd was feeling regret for Ling Fei, a low and savage voice came from Liu Ming’s mouth.

Immediately, the Long Sword in his hand moved. Sword Qi pulsed, shattering the Cold Qi that had previously condensed upon it.

The next moment, his Long Sword flashed and stabbed toward Ling Fei!

”Not good! Activating the Spiritual Snake Bloodline affects one’s temperament. Liu Ming is going for the kill!” an instructor exclaimed upon seeing this.

This kind of Bloodline Secret Technique has side effects when activated. If the user’s Cultivation is insufficient, their mentality can easily be influenced by the Blood Qi.

”Ling Fei!” Seeing this, Shangguan Hong’s face changed drastically, and he couldn’t help but cry out in alarm.

He then took a large stride. His body was like the wind, becoming an afterimage as he shot toward the tournament stage at extreme speed.

However, the instructors’ platform was a full eight hundred meters away from the stage.

How could it be so easy to cross that distance in an instant and stop Liu Ming?

At the very least, a Cultivator at the Celestial Spirit Realm could not accomplish such a feat.

”Ling Fei!” At that moment, Huang Xiaoman shot to her feet and cried out, tears streaming down her face.

It wasn’t hard to imagine—if Ling Fei was struck by Liu Ming’s sword, would he even survive?

”Brother Fei!” Wu Dapang also stood up, shouting out in shock. The fatty’s brows were tightly locked, and he wished he could fly to the tournament stage himself.

”This...” Zhou Qingshui, Shangguan Yurou, Mu Xue, and the others all felt their hearts leap into their throats.

Tears even began to unconsciously slide from their eyes.

Liu Ming’s sword strike pulled at the hearts of countless people!
