Chapter 116 Blood Spirit Strategy Breakthrough! Blood Separation Divine Technique!

Chapter 116 Blood Spirit Strategy Breakthrough! Blood Separation Divine Technique! (4200 words, Seeking _ Life Simulation: Adding Entries from Health Maintenance)

Bang!

Han Zhao squeezed his right hand, and the vitality, true qi, and strength of He Jingsong's body were absorbed by him and turned into dust.

A second-level master of dual energies, He Jingsong, had been completely annihilated.

In fact, if He Jingsong were not a second-level master of dual energies and did not engage in close combat with him, he would not have been severely injured by Han Zhao's full-strength attack.

Speaking of which, for ordinary warriors, second-level masters of dual energies were the most difficult to deal with.

But Han Zhao was not an ordinary warrior.

The Diamond Body Technique was recorded in the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art, a technique that combined offense and defense. Han Zhao had learned about it from the Ji family's records.

Even for a genius warrior, it would take decades of practice to master.

However, thanks to the added entries, he had only cultivated the Diamond Technique to the third level and had fortunately gained the skill of "Diamond Body."

Of course, this Diamond Body technique was not as powerful as the one in the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art, but achieving "Diamond Body" at the age of twenty-two was something that even the strong who had created the Indestructible Diamond Divine Art in their prime could not do.

"What is this?" After integrating refined vitality and true qi into his body, Han Zhao found that the progress of the Blood Spirit Strategy and the Health Maintenance Technique had greatly increased.

Blood Spirit Strategy (Third level complete 69%, can be improved; Special effects: Blood Transformation level 10, Mind Control level 9, Blood Explosion level 8, Blood Fusion level 7, Blood Spirit Incarnation)

Health Maintenance Technique (Fourth level great completion 38%, can be improved; Special effects: Body Strengthening level 12, Pure Yang level 7, Vital Energy Cultivation level 5, Lifespan Extension 500 years)

The Blood Spirit Strategy had directly jumped from the third level entry progress of 11% to a complete 69% after integrating refined vitality and true qi.

While the Diamond Technique did not value He Jingsong's true qi, the Health Maintenance Technique accepted it without hesitation. After fusing with true qi, it had jumped from the fourth level entry progress of 45% to a great completion of 38%.

Let's not mention the other special effects for now, but his lifespan had increased by 200 years!

"Just one-twentieth of the strength of a second-level master, and it has boosted me this much. If there were a few more..."

Han Zhao's eyes gleamed.

But he knew that this was impossible.

Because the vast majority of master-level experts had backgrounds.

If he were to encounter a third-level master now, he might not even be able to defeat them.

So far, the enemies he had encountered did not come from top-tier families.

So, he didn't know how strong the peers from these elite families were.

Take Lu Yingxuan, for example. When he first saw her, she was at the first-level master realm.

Han Zhao had used 80% of his true strength in his true form to kill Gan Luohai, a first-level master of the Furious Dragon Gang.

But when facing Lu Yingxuan directly, the system showed that he was completely outmatched.

And Lu Yingxuan was not from a top-tier family; she had only obtained the top-notch technique, the Dark Star Demon Art.

Those families with legacies spanning over a thousand years were definitely not simple.

"Ah, I'm still not strong enough!" Han Zhao sighed inwardly and crouched down to check the bodies.

He Jingsong did not have a storage bag on him, and he hadn't carried much money either. Han Zhao's face fell.

Fortunately, there was a decent-looking soft sword, which should be worth quite a bit.

Listening to the sounds of fighting coming from the manor, Han Zhao put the soft sword into his storage bag and immediately released his true form, rushing towards the manor.

In front of the rear courtyard of the manor, Su Tianqi was engaged in a fierce battle with Mei Qiaoyan.

He clenched his fists tightly, wearing a pair of white silk boxing gloves. His movements were quick, his techniques were sharp, and he repeatedly struck Mei Qiaoyan's vital points such as the heart and neck. However, Mei Qiaoyan's body barely reacted, showing no signs of injury.

She had been hit many times, but only occasionally managed to hit Su Tianqi.

But as long as Su Tianqi was grazed by a punch, he felt a surge of pressure in his chest.

"Damn it! This turtle shell! I can't even touch her!" Su Tianqi became angrier the more he thought about it. Even when facing peers from powerful martial clans, he had never been in such a difficult situation.

However, if they were to drag it out and engage in a prolonged battle after using their burst abilities as second-level martial artists, he would definitely win.

But behind him was where the injured members of the caravan were resting. He couldn't retreat any further and could only hold Mei Qiaoyan back; otherwise, they would be helpless against each other in a one-on-one fight.

While the two were fighting, they suddenly saw Han Zhao, dressed in black, appear on the rooftop and leap down.

"Han Brother!" Su Tianqi's face lit up.

Although he hadn't seen Han Zhao take action in reality, based on his performance in the dream, he was undoubtedly a skilled martial artist.

With two against one, they had a guaranteed victory.

Seeing this situation, Su Tianqi felt like he was injected with chicken blood. He stopped evading and released a fierce wind true qi, striking Mei Qiaoyan with a punch.

Boom!

With a single blow, Su Tianqi was blasted back seven or eight steps, leaving deep footprints on the stone floor with each step. He felt his qi and blood surging, making it difficult to catch his breath.

Mei Qiaoyan didn't fare well either. Although she was a second-level martial artist, being dragged into such a long battle and using burst techniques repeatedly had consumed a significant amount of her qi and blood. Her last attack had not achieved anything, and upon seeing reinforcements arriving, she began to consider retreating.

Han Zhao descended from the sky and unsheathed his business knife, slashing with a powerful aura.

Seeing this, Mei Qiaoyan turned to run.

"Where are you going?!" Su Tianqi wasn't about to let her escape. He gathered his fierce wind true qi at his feet, taking a step that covered several meters, and delivered a direct punch to the back of Mei Qiaoyan's head.

In a direct confrontation, she could withstand attacks through her martial technique, but now, with her body full of openings as she attempted to flee, she couldn't escape unscathed if struck in a vulnerable area.

"Get lost!" Mei Qiaoyan's eyes turned red, and her Blood Spirit Secret Technique erupted once again. The tremendous power gathered in her fist seemed capable of shattering space, and the air distorted under the violent punch.

"Not good!" Su Tianqi didn't dare to directly take such a desperate blow from her

. He gathered his fierce wind true qi all around him, creating a gust of wind, and simultaneously made a swift retreat.

However, Mei Qiaoyan's furious punch came too close; he couldn't dodge it.

Boom!

In an instant, the courtyard exploded with a surge of air, sweeping in all directions and turning into a raging wind that swept through the entire area. Su Tianqi's body was like a cannonball, flying backward and crashing into the wall of the building behind him. The wall behind him sunk in, covered in spiderweb-like cracks.

"Phew!" He spat out a mouthful of blood, his face deathly pale. Thankfully, he had his fierce wind true qi protecting him; otherwise, this blow would have left him severely injured or worse.

Swish!

Mei Qiaoyan was about to pursue her advantage and strike down Su Tianqi, but as Han Zhao's figure flew past her head in mid-air and a surge of true qi erupted around him, his body moved like a flying swallow, unexpectedly flying backward in mid-air.

...

"Three Elements Circulation · Mountain-Breaking Style!"

Buzz, buzz, buzz! The Zhan Ye Dao (Slayer Blade) in his hand emitted a brilliant red light, vibrating intensely as a surge of bloodthirsty excitement overflowed.

"Sword Intent?!!" Mei Qiaoyan, who had initially intended to face this attack head-on and defeat Su Tianqi, suddenly felt the sharp sword aura above her head, and even before it approached her, she had a sensation of impending tearing. Her entire skin felt a piercing pain.

"Blood Spirit Secret Art · Blood Burst!"

Her body suddenly froze, her legs bent like stone pillars, and a deafening roar shook the entire courtyard as her tremendous power left a massive pit beneath her feet.

Mei Qiaoyan pulled her arms back to her chest, and her already overly muscular arms swelled once more. The muscles bulged as if they were inflating, with veins popping out like wriggling earthworms, looking incredibly menacing.

At this moment, her upper body was completely disproportionate to her lower body. The swollen muscles had enveloped her shoulders, making her neck and face appear as if they were fused together.

At this critical moment, she couldn't afford to worry about the terrifying aftereffects of using this secret technique.

If she couldn't withstand this attack, there would be no later.

This was the most perilous situation she had encountered in dozens of battles.

Even if the opponent had comprehended Sword Intent, without a point to leverage in mid-air, they would undoubtedly be severely injured by her pure physical strength.

This punch, unless it was a Grandmaster with unparalleled training, ordinary Masters would never dare to face it head-on, let alone a martial artist who had only mastered the basics.

"Kill!!"

Mei Qiaoyan shot into the sky with her body, both fists striking simultaneously. Layers of black vigor surged from her body, which was a trace of the Earth Elemental Qi she had painstakingly integrated into her internal organs. It was her foundation for advancing to the Grandmaster realm. However, at this moment, she had to squeeze out every ounce of power from her body.

"Han Brother! Be careful!" Su Tianqi's face changed suddenly. He didn't expect the opponent to still have a horrifying killing move. If she had used this move just now, it might have taken most of his life.

Boom!

A loud noise.

The intense collision between the black vigor shockwave and the crimson sword aura erupted fiercely.

In a trance, Su Tianqi seemed to see Han Zhao transform into an unparalleled treasure sword, with his body merging with the crimson longsword in his hand.

The massive shockwave created in an instant shattered the wall behind him, which had long been filled with cracks.

Su Tianqi protected his front with the remaining True Qi, his hands shielding his face.

"Wow!" His body was pushed into the room by the gust of wind generated by the shockwave.

"Han Brother!" Su Tianqi endured the intense pain in his chest and back, struggling to get up. At this moment, the courtyard had fallen completely silent.

He looked outside through the large hole in the room's wall.

The bluestone tiles on the courtyard floor had all been shattered by the terrifying force from earlier. In the center of the pit, there was a loud thud as a crimson longsword plunged down from above Mei Qiaoyan's head. Her horrifying figure, nearly two meters tall, collapsed, and blood began to seep from every inch of her skin.

"Gurgle~ Gurgle~!" A sound similar to gulping water echoed from the crimson longsword.

Mei Qiaoyan's body visibly shrank at an astonishing speed.

Soon, her body turned into a small lump, not much larger than a human head.

The Slayer Blade absorbed...

Half of her blood, along with True Qi and vigor, entered Han Zhao's body.

"Han Brother, you..." Su Tianqi opened his mouth wide, looking at Han Zhao in front of him, not knowing what to say.

He had been unable to understand why someone as powerful as Lang Fanyun had lost a bet to Han Zhao and agreed to protect him for five years.

Now, it seemed he understood.

"It seems like I used too much force!" Han Zhao, seeing Su Tianqi's expression, realized he had overexerted himself. He quickly steadied himself, leaning on the Slayer Blade and trying to look as if he was barely standing.

"Han Brother, how are you?" Su Tianqi rushed forward, stumbling along the way, and ended up sitting in the pit in the courtyard.

"Cousin! Are you okay?"

At this moment, a figure in a white long dress floated over, surprisingly Su Ningqiu. She appeared completely unharmed.

"Cousin, why are you here?" Su Tianqi asked in confusion.

"When I was fighting those Masters who had mastered Inner Strength, Lang Young Master suddenly appeared and asked me to come help you. How are you? Did you kill that woman? Cousin, you're amazing!" Su Ningqiu looked at the chaotic courtyard, unable to find Mei Qiaoyan's body, and reached out to support Su Tianqi.

"Cousin, actually, I..." Su Tianqi was about to explain.

"Yes! Thanks to Su Brother consuming most of the opponent's strength, I was able to narrowly defeat her." Han Zhao, leaning on the Slayer Blade, limped over.

"Han Brother, why didn't you mention your strength was so formidable earlier!" Su Tianqi's mouth twitched.

"It was Young Master Han who killed that strange woman?!" Su Ningqiu looked at Han Zhao in astonishment.

He walked with the support of the blade, looking weak, but his entire body was unharmed, not even a speck of dust on him.

"Su Brother, Su Miss, you've misunderstood. I actually used a desperate secret technique just now. It was a one-time use, and it consumes a significant amount of lifespan. Have you heard of demonic techniques that consume blood and life force? Right now, I've suffered severe internal injuries."

Seeing Su Ningqiu's exaggerated expression, Han Zhao earnestly explained.

"..." Su Tianqi looked at Han Zhao. He was clearly healthy, with a rosy complexion and a full voice, not hesitating at all.

"..." Su Ningqiu looked at Han Zhao, then at her cousin, who had torn clothes and a pale face, looking puzzled.

Who among these two was actually seriously injured?

"..." Han Zhao didn't know how to respond. Even if his acting skills were superb, it was truly difficult to fake this. When separated from his body, he could only exert fifty percent of his strength. Given this situation, he had only used thirty percent of his power to kill that woman, which was something he hadn't expected.

He had originally planned for a bloody battle and then had his avatar take the stage to turn the tide. Now, things had taken an unexpected turn.

How could a Master with Inner Strength be so weak?

At this moment, there was a moment of silence.

"Han Brother, I've heard of demonic techniques that consume blood and lifespan, but it seems you naturally possess extraordinary blood and Qi." Su Tianqi found a reason to believe Han Zhao. After all, he had won, and the method didn't matter.

"Su Brother, you're right. I do have innate divine power! My blood and Qi are beyond ordinary." Han Zhao nodded repeatedly, genuinely liking someone as well-informed as Su Tianqi.

"By the way, Han Brother, what about that elder from the Eternal Life Sect? He seemed to have a higher status than that woman just now. Did Lang Young Master already deal with him?" Su Tianqi changed the subject, not wanting to delve deeper into this issue.

"It should be." Han Zhao replied, and his avatar was already on his way here after draining the energy of the dozen or so Masters who had practiced the Blood Spirit Technique.

In no time, the avatar arrived in the courtyard.

"Young Master Lang, what about those people..." Su Ningqiu asked.

"They've been taken care of," the avatar replied.

"Blood Spirit Art (Entry Level 4%, can be improved; Special Effects: Blood Transformation Level 11, Mind Control Level 10, Blood Burst Level 9, Blood Fusion Level 8, Blood Division Level 1, Blood Spirit Incarnation)

After continuously absorbing the energy of more than ten martial artists who had practiced the Blood Spirit Art, Han Zhao's Blood Spirit Art had finally advanced to the fourth level.

["Basic Master" proficiency increased!]

With the advancement of the Blood Spirit Art, the proficiency of the "Basic Master" attribute also increased.
