Chapter 90: Extreme Blood Qi!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

“Gosh, my eyes aren’t playing tricks on me, are they?”

“How could that even be possible? Ancient Martial Arts can actually resist the repressive force of the True Breath realm?”

“That Blood Qi… Wang Baole’s Blood Qi is so heaven-defying. He actually didn’t unleash all his power in his previous match against Zhao Yameng!”

The teachers standing around were all shaken with surprise, and the students felt even more so. Everyone standing there had their mouths agape, their minds blown by what they had just seen.

The difference between the Ancient Martial Arts and the True Breath realm was like comparing a child to a well-built man. There was no means of resistance. However, the scene unfolding before their eyes, with Wang Baole straightening his waist and raising his head, coupled with his sharp gaze, actually meant that Gao Quan’s True Breath suppressive force had lost all its effect!

Even the Chancellor was taken aback by the series of events. He stared with his eyes wide open, unable to hide his shock.

Legend has it that if someone manages to cultivate their Blood Qi to the extreme, it is possible to resist the suppressive force from a True Breath expert for a short period of time. However, it still requires a bloodline that is difficult to find, even with today’s techniques.

Could it be that… Wang Baole’s bloodline is unique?

The Chancellor stopped in his tracks, halting his attempt to prevent the battle between Wang Baole and Gao Quan. He wanted to see for himself where Wang Baole’s limits were.

The suspicious thoughts of whether Wang Baole possessed rare treasures or the greedy intentions toward his bloodline were not unexpected, and they could arise in the minds of anyone in power, even if they were from the four major Dao Colleges. However, on the whole, the four major Dao Colleges in the federation were places where talents were cultivated. Their main focus was developing a sense of belonging toward the Dao College among the students and not vying for obvious benefits.

If what they wanted were benefits, the four major Dao College would not have risen to their current statuses and would not become the highly coveted halls of ivory that many could only dream of in the Federation. Therefore, in the Chancellor’s view, even though he was only Chancellor of the Lower Academy Island, he was cognizant of this point, like the rest of the senior management of the entire Ethereal Dao College.

After all, since the beginning of the Spirit Inception Era, many have had experienced life-changing opportunities, and even he had experienced a unique opportunity himself.

Who doesn’t have secrets? As long as he has a sense of recognition and belonging toward the Dao College, that is sufficient!

The Chancellor was full of anticipation as he watched Wang Baole and Gao Quan.

Right now, Gao Quan was more surprised than every onlooker combined.

“Impossible!” Gao Quan’s breathing was irregular as he shrieked. Wang Baole’s incredible Blood Qi had actually managed to resist the suppressive force of his True Breath, and that was something that he had never seen or heard in his whole life!

“Nothing is impossible!” Wang Baole raised his head, his gaze becoming even sharper. He was extremely agitated and excited, his self-confidence growing exponentially.

He thought about how Little Missy had not lied to him. A Golden Body could indeed battle a True Breath expert!

Under his hyperinflated self-confidence, Wang Baole let out a low growl before his body shot forward, heading directly at Gao Quan. His speed was at its maximum, making his entire body seem like it was moving at the speed of lightning as he quickly approached Gao Quan.

“Even if you can resist True Breath, the Ancient Martial Arts still remain the inadequate Ancient Martial Arts!” Gao Quan’s eyes were reddened. There were too many onlookers, and he felt increasingly embarrassed. The feeling of being challenged by such a student made him furious and ashamed at the same time. Killing intent surfaced in his eyes, and the moment Wang Baole arrived before him, Gao Quan suddenly flailed his right hand, revealing three talismans in his palm!

The three talismans did not seem to be physical entities, almost ethereal. Inscriptions and mysterious colors covered the talismans, and the moment they were taken out, they actually influenced the surrounding Spirit Qi, making them circulate with the talismans.

Gao Quan’s eyes shimmered, and he announced with a low voice at the same moment he threw the three talismans out, “Fireball!”

Instantly, the three talismans began moving by themselves before setting themselves on fire. As they burned, they began absorbing the Spirit Qi in the surroundings, and in a blink of an eye, they were transformed into three fist-sized fireballs!

It was not an ordinary flame but was instead one that carried a blue glow and had a temperature high enough to burn not just the human body, even through metal. One could definitely imagine that once contact was made with the fireballs, they would be burned to ashes immediately!

The moment they flew, the surrounding temperature rose exponentially, becoming a heat wave. As the atmosphere began burning, the three fireballs headed directly toward Wang Baole!

Wang Baole was flabbergasted. He had seen recordings of True Breath experts in action captured by others, but right now, it was the first time he had witnessed a cultivator’s spell.

The students standing around had also been gasping in shock from the moment they saw the talismans.

“True Breath spells!”

That was an authentic spell of True Breath’s early stages. Apart from the physical transformation and the True Breath’s suppressive force, another key difference in the outward presentation between the True Breath realm and the Ancient Martial realm laid in the spells!

The Ancient Martial realm made use of Blood Qi to create an illusion, but that was merely a secret technique of the Ancient Martial Arts in order to utilize the Blood Qi. The destructive power was not significant, and one still had to depend heavily on his own physical body.

However, for the True Breath realm, spells were techniques that were many times stronger than one’s physical body, and that was also the fundamental difference between a cultivator and a mortal!

The three fireballs moved at rapid speed, burning everything in their path as they charged toward Wang Baole, trapping him in a corner, without giving him an opportunity to hide. The heat wave inundated him directly.

The Chancellor wanted to stop the turn of events, but he stopped himself. He looked at Wang Baole and felt that he was not a rash person. The fact that he had the courage to begin the battle indicated that he had a method of retaliation!

Looking at the approaching fireballs, Wang Baole held his breath as he raised his right hand. As his storage bracelet shimmered, several flying swords emerged, charging directly at the fireballs.

Tens of small seals were also thrown out, and as they surrounded him, the purple jade pendant started to glow, and the small purple dragon began growling as it started circling him.

The flying swords and fireballs hit each other. However, the flying swords, which could withstand any form of damage under usual circumstances, actually began to melt after clashing with the fireballs!

The materials that Wang Baole had used to refine the flying sword were ordinary metals, which were sufficient to give him an edge in the Ancient Martial Arts realm. However, when used against the True Breath spells, the advantage practically disappeared. Even though the material was inferior, a Spirit Kernel made from Rainbow Spirit Stones was rarely seen. Even if the flying swords were melting, the Spirit Kernels contained within would be stimulated to implode, slowing down the arriving speed of the three fireballs.

In that moment, the small seals surrounding Wang Baole imploded as he leapt and neared the three fireballs. A strong driving force resulted, stopping the fireball momentarily and changing its direction. The distance between them were sufficient to fit in a person.

It was difficult to explain everything, but in the snap of a finger, from the moment the flying swords were thrown out, Wang Baole had already unleashed all his speed, charging toward Gao Quan. The implosion by the flying swords and the small seal caused the fireballs to be slowed down, and the distance created gave Wang Baole a chance to slip past the three fireballs.

The small purple dragon surrounding him also gave him protection. Even though it only lightly touched the fireball, the purple dragon was immensely distressed. However, for Wang Baole, it allowed him to narrowly avoid the fireballs, arriving in front of Gao Quan with incredible speed.

Gao Quan was taken aback, for Wang Baole’s reaction, breakthrough, and speed were too fast to handle. He was unable to react in time and could only take a step back. His protective numinous treasure was transformed into a small shield, but even that was blasted by Wang Baole’s punch as he approached.

That punch landed on the shield, but the immense force caused the small shield to be swept backwards as it vibrated intensely. The small shield smashed into Gao Quan’s chest, causing his internal organs to vibrate. As his body moved backward, Wang Baole was disappointed and not yet satisfied as he charged forward once again!

This very scene caused everyone to hold their breath while the glow in the Chancellor’s eyes grew.

As for Gao Quan, who had retreated, he was now looking at Wang Baole with disbelief. He had never encountered such powerful Ancient Martial Arts. As he witnessed Wang Baole arriving right before his eyes, Gao Quan’s gaze flashed.

His physical body is too strong. I cannot let him approach, and I must create distance between us!

With a snap of his fingers, four talismans appeared in the air surrounding him immediately!

The four talismans instantly began burning, but they did not transform into fireballs. Instead, they formed four wind blades, cutting through the air at a speed greater than that of the fireballs and charged directly at Wang Baole.

Their speed was so intense that it broke the sound barrier!

At the same time, Gao Quan quickly retreated, and snapping his fingers again, three flying swords emerged from his storage bag. They were all extremely sharp and headed directly toward Wang Baole!
