Chapter 6928 Blood Qi Internal Ignition
Li Chenggang was the top expert among the younger members of the Calligraphy Sect. He earned this title by defeating others with his strength.
When Li Chenggang first joined the Calligraphy Sect, the other disciples looked down on him because he came from the nine heavens.
Then, on his own, Li Chenggang defeated all the so-called experts and made them acknowledge his strength.
Now, as he stepped forward, everyone cheered. They hadn’t seen him truly fight since the last time.
Li Chenggang was no longer nervous. Long Chen had already helped him win two matches, so it was his turn to claim a victory.
“Brother Li, why don’t you let me experience the Painting Sect’s skills in this match?” Li Chenggang called out from the center of the martial stage.
Suddenly, one of the Painting Sect’s disciples let out a growl that sounded both beast-like and thunderous.
This disciple gradually pulled back his hood and declared, “If you wish to challenge senior apprentice-brother Wujiu, then you, Li Chenggang, are not worthy!”
“What terrifying Blood Qi!” Xin Yu cried out in shock.
This person’s Blood Qi was as vast as the sea yet as explosive as a volcano.
He ripped off his cloak to reveal a sharp, unforgiving face. His eyes shone with a bloodthirsty gleam, making him seem like a beast in human form.
“Someone from the Blood race?” Long Chen narrowed his eyes.
The four immemorial sects were supposed to accept only human disciples. It was well known that they did not recruit members of other races.
This wasn’t out of prejudice against other sects, but because their legacies were unique. The techniques of the four immemorial sects were only compatible with humans, making it impossible for other races to cultivate them.
This person’s Blood Qi was immense, like a vast sea. It also carried a hint of the demon race’s energy, showing he was a mix of demon and Blood race.
“The Painting Sect’s Kui Yin, here for pointers!” Kui Yin declared as he walked up the stage.
With each step he took, the martial stage trembled. It felt as if his Blood Qi could erupt and destroy everything at any moment.
At first, everyone felt confident in Li Chenggang. But when they sensed the man’s aura, the Calligraphy Sect’s disciples were shocked and grew anxious.
“Long Chen, who is that? He is blocking my senses. Why is his aura so strange?” asked Xin Yu.
Normally, she wouldn’t ask such a thing, since it would be awkward if no one knew the answer. But she believed Long Chen could figure out something about him.
The other disciples listened closely. They were curious too.
After studying the man for a while, Long Chen answered, “He has both demon and Blood race bloodlines, but the Blood race side is weaker. That means his father was a demon, and his mother was from the Blood race. I see scale runes on his neck, and with his name, Kui Yin[1], he’s likely from a viper or python demon race. Only a few demon races of that type have strong bloodline inheritances, so he should be from the Nether Flame Blood Viper race.”
Both Chi Yutong and Yan Li were startled by this deduction.
Chi Yutong said, “The Nether Flame Blood Viper race? They should be a flame-attribute demonic beast, right? But I don’t sense any flame fluctuations from him.”
Yan Li couldn’t sense any fluctuations either. Both of them were flame cultivators, yet they sensed no such fluctuations from Kui Yin.
Long Chen explained, “That’s because there are Yang flames and Yin flames. You both use Yang flames, which show on the outside. Yin flames, though, are hidden inside, so they’re harder to sense. Plus, the Blood race bloodline makes the Yin flame energy blend completely into his blood. That’s why you only feel his strong Blood Qi, not his flame energy.”
“Boss, you’re incredible!” Yan Li praised.
No wonder Long Chen could become the dean of the High Firmament Academy at such a young age. His extensive knowledge, sharp deductions, and strength were all remarkable.
“Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen... can Senior apprentice-brother Chenggang win?” Liu Qianer asked out of the blue.
“You’re underestimating your senior apprentice-brother Chenggang. He’s not like the rest of you. He’s a real expert who’s survived countless battles. Not even ten Kui Yins could defeat him,” Long Chen replied, smiling.
Hearing that, those disciples relaxed.
Long Chen continued, “Still, Kui Yin is very strong. Li Chenggang won’t waste the chance to face such a good opponent. So watch carefully and learn from them!”
“Yes!” Those disciples all responded excitedly.
BOOM!
At that moment, the battle began. Kui Yin’s Blood Qi exploded, and red light filled the sky. He moved like a red bolt of lightning, striking at Li Chenggang with his palm.
On the other hand, Li Chenggang stood still. But when Kui Yin got within three feet, an invisible force stopped his attack.
Li Chenggang looked at him and said, “You don’t need to hold back. If you want to beat me, show me your true strength. Are you saving your power for Long Chen? You should give up on that idea!”
Then, Li Chenggang barely moved, but Kui Yin grunted and was knocked back, almost falling out of the martial stage.
Seeing this, all the Calligraphy Sect’s disciples cheered loudly. The sound outside the martial stage was deafening.
Kui Yin came back, not angry but grinning widely.
He said, “Good, you’re strong. Now I don’t have to worry about killing you too quickly!”
BOOM!
Kui Yin spread his arms, and his robes burst apart, revealing black scale armor. Each scale had a blood-red rune flickering inside. Once he entered this state, no one could sense his powerful Blood Qi anymore.
The martial stage crackled, struggling to withstand his power.
“Blood Qi Internal Ignition? What a rare divine ability!” Long Chen exclaimed, nodding.
“Blood Qi Internal Ignition? Doesn’t that ability cause the body to explode?” Chi Yutong asked.
Long Chen explained, “He possesses two types of bloodlines and a strong physique. Additionally, he wields a Yin flame, which provides the necessary foundation for internal ignition.”
“Boss, what’s the difference between Blood Qi ignition inside and outside the body?” asked Yan Li.
“External ignition lets you merge with heaven and earth. You use your own strength to draw in more power, which gives you great strength. But it’s hard to control and dangerous. The faster you burn energy, the less efficient it becomes.
“With internal ignition, you ignite your own energy and compress it, so you can release it all at once in a burst. This can boost your power several times, maybe even dozens. The advantage is that it works no matter what’s happening outside and can be used quickly. Since it’s your own power, it’s easier to control. But you can’t keep it up for long, because you’re not drawing in extra energy. You’ll run out of energy fast, so once you start, you have to finish the fight quickly!”
BOOM!
Just then, the martial stage shuddered. The ground beneath Kui Yin’s feet exploded, and he vanished.
“What speed!”
