I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1818: Chapter 1818: Nine Yin Cold Qi Reappears!

Eight Desolate Ruins, Power of Three Desolates.

After activating the Golden-Winged Roc bloodline, Xu Yeming’s speed surged drastically.

When Xu Rulin’s knife-hand approached, he evaded effortlessly.

Xu Rulin frowned slightly as he watched his Moon Eclipse Netherworld Record-enhanced blade strike empty air.

He had already pushed his speed to the absolute limit moments ago.

The purpose was to end Xu Luo swiftly, giving him no opportunity to retaliate.

Facing an unknown heaven-defying technique, who knew what tricks the opponent might have remaining?

Eliminating the threat quickly was the safest method.

Xu Rulin looked at Xu Luo standing at the edge of the martial stage and said, ”Golden-Winged Roc bloodline... and Qilin bloodline, Taotie bloodline—did you obtain the blood essence of these top-tier mutated beasts from the ruins?”

Xu Yeming chuckled. ”What, did you expect me to march into the Kirin Clan and steal their bloodline? If I did, even my family wouldn’t be able to protect me.”

If human experts dared to attempt such a thing, the entire family would likely face extermination in retaliation...

Even if that person happened to be an heir of a top faction.

Xu Rulin nodded slightly, as Moon Eclipse Netherworld Energy began to condense once more, covering his entire body. It appeared almost like a set of Moon-Eclipsed Armor.

”If I defeat you, not only will you hand over your technique—you’ll give me your bloodline power as well. How about it?”

Upon hearing Xu Rulin’s proposition, the crowd was stunned.

Extracting someone’s bloodline, while it wouldn’t take their life, could irreversibly damage their strength, potentially leaving them with lifelong injuries!

Just as others assumed Xu Luo would refuse, he surprisingly nodded his head in agreement. ”As long as you can defeat me.”

”Good.” Xu Rulin nodded briefly before charging directly at Xu Yeming.

Although he didn’t know where Xu Luo’s confidence came from...

Xu Rulin was assured of his own success.

Even against other experts of the same realm, Xu Rulin felt no fear—why would he fear someone whose cultivation hadn’t even reached the Monarch God Realm?

Xu Yeming’s expression grew solemn as he watched Xu Rulin charge toward him.

Reputation truly does not come without merit.

Xu Rulin, as Xu Chen had mentioned, was indeed incredibly powerful.

When Xu Rulin struck, there was neither excessive leakage of immortal aura nor any dazzling light display.

Instead, the Moon Eclipse Netherworld Energy compressed and focused madly on himself, concentrating all his power at a single point.

At this moment.

The Moon-Eclipsed Armor covering Xu Rulin’s entire body shimmered faintly, resembling moonlit blades. Its smooth, gleaming surface emanated an aura that felt sharp enough to cut through iron effortlessly.

Even the slightest contact might result in being sliced cleanly in two.

Xu Yeming, standing at the edge of the martial stage, had no room left to retreat. Whether he moved to the left or the right, he remained in Xu Rulin’s attack range.

With this realization.

Xu Yeming withdrew the Golden-Winged Roc bloodline.

”Power of Three Desolates, Xuanwu bloodline...”

In this moment, Xu Yeming activated the Eight Desolate Ruins to simultaneously summon three Desolates.

When the Xuanwu bloodline coursed through his body, merging with the Qilin and Taotie bloodlines...

A faintly visible layer of Xuanwu Divine Armor surfaced across Xu Yeming’s entire body before subsiding beneath his skin.

At this instant.

Xu Yeming stepped forward decisively and threw a punch!

Xu Rulin raised a brow.

Clearly, he hadn’t expected Xu Luo to choose direct confrontation.

But regardless... Xu Luo’s fate in Xu Rulin’s view could only end in two ways.

Either he’d be sent flying off the martial stage from Xu Rulin’s attack, losing the bet in defeat...

Or he’d lose both arms to the sharpness of Xu Rulin’s strikes, leaving him powerless to continue fighting.

Such was the script Xu Rulin had planned.

Yet.

At the exact moment their fists collided...

Xu Rulin’s expression froze.

Both outcomes he’d envisioned shattered instantly.

When Xu Rulin’s fist clashed with Xu Luo’s, it felt as though he was striking an unending mountain range.

It was utterly immovable!

Moreover... Xu Luo’s fist seemed an impenetrable steel force, shattering the cutting edge of the Moon-Eclipsed Armor as easily as scattering mist!

Xu Rulin’s face grew serious at last, and he asked, ”Which bloodline is granting you such amplified capabilities?”

Xu Yeming smiled and replied, ”Xuanwu bloodline.

If your attacks are only at this level, I’m afraid it won’t be enough to defeat me.”

The moment those words fell.

Xu Yeming let out a low shout as the Qilin and Taotie bloodlines erupted suddenly!

Blocks of Qilin Scale Armor began to manifest over Xu Yeming’s fists, opening and closing repeatedly, releasing bursts of fiery red energy!

The Taotie bloodline’s enormous strength layered atop this.

With both combined...

Xu Rulin felt an overwhelming force akin to a raging storm crashing down upon him from Xu Luo’s fists!

The Moon-Eclipsed Armor encasing Xu Rulin’s arm emitted a resounding ”crack” as fissures began to form, with blood seeping through the cracks!

Xu Rulin’s body was forcibly driven backward, hurtling like a cannonball!

Observing this scene.

The direct lineage heirs below the martial stage stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

Xu Rulin, while executing his full strength, had been directly blown away?

Not only that, but one of his arms had even been injured?

And this was someone who hadn’t yet stepped into the Monarch God Realm?

It was known that Xu Rulin wasn’t ordinary—not only was he at the Late Stage of Monarch God Realm, but he also possessed strength comparable to a Half-step Domain God Realm combatant.

How could such a result be possible?

The elders exchanged glances.

From the intensity in their eyes, it was clear what they were thinking.

Without question.

They accredited Xu Luo’s success in overcoming Xu Rulin to the Eight Desolate Ruins technique.

”Indeed, the relics from the Chaos Divine Dynasty are extraordinary.”

”It seems that if others in the Xu Family were to cultivate this technique, their strength would rise significantly.”

The Second Elder mulled over this for a moment and then remarked, ”I will petition the Head of the Murong family.”

”Xu Luo, after all, is the leading talent among the younger generation of the family—the inheritor.”

The Second Elder wouldn’t outright seize Xu Luo’s possessions unilaterally.

At this moment.

Xu Yeming looked at Xu Rulin, who had managed to stop himself at the martial stage’s edge, and said with a smile, ”Do you have anything else to offer? If not, perhaps it’s time for you to leave on your own.”

Xu Rulin stared fixedly at Xu Yeming and declared firmly, ”This technique of yours... I will take it.”

With those words.

The Moon Eclipse Netherworld Energy surrounding Xu Rulin suddenly began to change...

Traces of icy blue energy started intertwining within the Moon Eclipse Netherworld Energy.

Simultaneously, frost-blue patterns began creeping across Xu Rulin’s body...

The phenomenon.

Was identical to that of Xuanyuan Zixi!

Upon seeing this.

Xu Yeming’s expression grew solemn.

Meanwhile, Xu Chen paused for a moment and then focused intently on the elders.

Sure enough.

Their conjectures proved correct.
