430 Complete Comprehension
Qin Huai wondered if the emperor had remembered incorrectly or if there was something unusual about his cultivation technique. The idea of immortality seemed too fantastical.
“Sadly, the difficulty of cultivating the sacred heart technique is incredibly high,” the emperor explained. “The Sacred Heart sect never had many disciples. In fact, in my time, it even dwindled to just one disciple…
“However, this group possesses remarkable combat strength. Their bodies are formidable, their vitality and blood strong… They’re also highly skilled in being persistent. If anyone offends the Sacred Heart sect, they might not live in peace for decades.”
The emperor held his forehead, his expression suggesting he was recalling a distressing memory.
“However, this fellow’s aura…it seems a bit odd,” the emperor pondered, rubbing his chin.
Qin Huai stated gravely, “The Sacred Heart sect has now become a great threat in the Great You. They have numerous disciples, and they sustain their cultivation by feeding on living beings. Wherever Sacred Heart sect members go, lives are plunged into misery and not even a blade of grass grows. They’re even worse than demons. Additionally, they don’t cultivate the sacred heart technique but the blood heart technique.”
The Emperor of Qingzhou fell silent for a moment. “Everything has changed,” he finally remarked. “In the past, those from the Sacred Heart sect were at the forefront of battling demons. Each Sacred Heart disciple rose to fame with the heads of great demons and devils.”
He sighed, able to speculate some reasons for this transformation. It was mainly due to the long history of the Sacred Heart sect…
“Wait! You must have cultivated the blood heart technique!” The emperor had a sudden realization.
He’d been wondering about the bone patterns on Qin Huai’s spine and the peculiar aura about him. Seeing this man, the emperor finally understood.
“Senior, I certainly didn’t…” Qin Huai began to refute, but the emperor interrupted.
“I know you didn’t eat people. Although your auras are similar, you don’t have the disgusting aura they possess,” he clarified. “But the bone patterns of your cultivation method are a bit unusual. I can’t pinpoint exactly what’s strange about them. Regardless, you should be cautious when you cultivate.”
“How does one cultivate the true sacred heart technique?” Qin Huai asked curiously.
“I’m not entirely sure,” the emperor admitted, shaking his head. “The Sacred Heart sect is quite enigmatic, and there are very few disciples in the sect. Hardly anyone knows their cultivation method.”
“Alright, young man, this guy will be your opponent!” With that, the emperor pushed Qin Huai, who instantly fell into a strange state.
Bang!
In the next instant, a punch pierced through, its dark skin carrying the strong scent of blood.
As Qin Huai was about to raise his fist, a ghastly white bone broke through his skin along with blood and flesh! The white bone grew rapidly, carrying a sharp killing intent and a powerful gust of wind.
Qin Huai tilted his head to the side. The white bone grazed his cheekbone, causing sparks and a shudder. Flesh and blood splattered everywhere, with a piece of his skin still clinging to the tip of the white bone.
Simultaneously, Qin Huai’s eyes lit up. “Emperor’s force!”
A white light screen surrounded the battlefield, and a heavy pressure immediately descended upon the burly man from the Sacred Heart sect. Activating the poison dragon shock, a fist erupted right above the burly man’s taut abdomen.
Rumble!
Thump, thump, thump…
Both of them recoiled a step, their bodies bleeding.
Qin Huai’s head was buzzing, and he felt disoriented due to the violent shaking. Luckily, there was a brief pause that allowed him to catch his breath. The difference between visceral prefecture realm experts was indeed enormous.
The flesh on his face healed almost instantly, as did the flesh on the burly man’s abdomen.
“You… Hmm?” The burly man glanced up at Qin Huai’s undamaged cheek, then down at the blood-stained bone spike on his fist. “Are you also a Sacred Heart disciple?” he asked in a deep voice.
The next moment, a stream of blood spurted from his fingertip. Immediately, the sky was filled with blood, as if it formed a horizontal cage intending to impale Qin Huai.
Qin Huai sneered as a pair of silver-white dragon wings unfurled behind him. As the wings flapped, numerous wind blades emerged, carrying a fierce killing intent.
The bloody lines and wind blades dominated the sky. The shattered blood thread transformed into drops of blood that descended from the heavens, like a rain of blood that showered the two of them.
Qin Huai’s killing intent continued to escalate with each explosion in the air. “It appears that the four-directional tiger-wolf technique has a remarkable effect on the blood heart technique,” he noted with satisfaction.
There seemed to be a flash of red in his eyes, and a low growl, similar to a bloody tiger, seemed to echo from his throat. On his skin, white smoke rose from the blood, seemingly highly corrosive.
“You’ve walked into my trap!” The burly man lunged forward, the ground beneath his feet breaking apart like a spider web.
The shattered stones flew backward, destroying numerous ancient bronze artifacts. His body moved like lightning, leaving a bloody trail in the air.
“These poisons can weaken your physical strength!” The burly man laughed. The bone spike at the tip of his right fist was like a long white blade, thrusting toward Qin Huai’s throat.
Qin Huai’s expression was frosty, and he made no attempt to evade. His right fist launched forward, a white dot of light also targeting his throat.
“You’re courting death!”
