Soul Emperor Martial God
Chapter 1839: Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water
Boom...
A loud noise.
The figure of Elder Jingz Yue fell heavily from high above.
Upon hitting the ground, a massive pit was formed.
"Elder Jingz Yue." Elder Hua Yue and the other two were shocked and discolored.
"Scatter." The three of them waved their hands, dispersing the large clouds of dust.
Within the massive pit, Elder Jingz Yue’s figure rose in a disheveled state.
Once elegant and refined, Elder Jingz Yue was now dressed in tattered clothing.
"Pfft." Elder Jingz Yue spat a mouthful of blood; he was injured.
This was the first time he had ever bled.
The unexpected legendary expert who had defeated Hall Master Chengtian and Chengfeng Hall Master with a single punch had finally bled.
In the sky.
Xiao Yi’s eyes suddenly turned blood-red.
Waves of blood-colored power erupted continuously from his body.
"Blood Heart Slash, this is the final form of the Blood Realm Four Forms, Blood Heart Slash." Xiao Yi clenched his powerful fist and smiled.
The sword in his hand, the overwhelming Blood Qi Power, was at its peak for the first time.
After countless refinements of the Blood Realm Four Forms, he finally comprehended the Fourth Form.
At the same time, he finally understood why, despite Hui Deacon creating the Blood Realm Four Forms, he could never grasp the Fourth Form.
The reason was simple.
It was precisely the essence of the Fourth Form.
The first form, Blood Realm Slash, the second form, Blood Storm Slash, the third form, Blood Slaughter Slash.
The fourth form, Blood Heart Slash.
The key lies in the word "Heart."
Whether it was Blood Realm Slash, Blood Storm Slash, or Blood Slaughter Slash, they were driven by external forces, using Blood Power to unleash overwhelming might.
Only Blood Heart Slash uses the heart as its source, guided by the heart.
Blood Qi, most unusual, most tumultuous, most driving Martial Artists to madness, mental collapse and loss.
Martial Artists cultivating it are always cautious, fearing losing their mind and becoming a crazed warrior, even leading to death.
But, if one does not fully invest their heart to master Blood Qi, how can they become proficient?
The Fourth Form of Blood Realm takes a contrary approach, merging the mind into it, guided by the heart.
Then, any gesture by a Martial Artist, becomes a sharply abnormal Blood Realm Slash, a wildly ferocious Blood Storm Slash, and a stronger Blood Slaughter Slash with combined features of both.
Hui Deacon may have created the Fourth Form, but he had once broken his sword, abandoned the sword in his heart.
Also, while walking the Path of Slaughter, it left a glaring shadow on Hui Deacon, making it impossible for him to entrust his fragile mind to Blood Qi.
Naturally, Hui Deacon failed to comprehend the Fourth Form.
Instead, Xiao Yi, through desperate fighting, wholeheartedly engaging, without restraint, refined the Fourth Form under continued trials.
The Fourth Form of Blood Realm is less a Martial Technique or move, and more a stronger application of the preceding three forms, no, even a more terrifying use.
Seconds later, in just an instant, Xiao Yi discarded all distractions.
The next second, he flashed, heading straight down to Elder Jingz Yue.
Initially wanting to stall for time, the Four Great Elders clearly weren’t giving him that chance, forcing him to fight to the death.
Now, he has the upper hand and won’t give the Four Great Elders any respite.
In this battle, it’s victory or death.
Whoosh... Xiao Yi’s speed reached the extreme.
In just an instant, he arrived before Elder Jingz Yue.
With a slash, bang... Elder Jingz Yue was sent flying, a ferocious blood mark carved heavily on his chest.
Boom... another slash, Xiao Yi flashed before Elder Hua Yue.
"Pfft." Elder Hua Yue spat blood, blasted a hundred miles away.
Whoosh... bang...
The menacing Blood-colored Sword descended upon Elder Shui Yue’s head.
Elder Shui Yue’s face changed dramatically, hurriedly dodging.
The Sword Edge didn’t strike his head, but the Sword Power pierced heavily through his chest.
Elder Shui Yue was also blasted a hundred miles away.
Whoosh... Xiao Yi flashed before Elder Holy Moon.
Another slash came out.
Elder Holy Moon was shocked, retreating rapidly.
Psst...
A sound of slicing in the air.
Elder Holy Moon, truly a power above legends, exceptionally strong.
He dodged this sword.
But his left arm was cut off.
The sharp Sword Intent sent him flying afar, blood spilling in the sky.
This battle seems to be his victory.
Originally, when Ice Phoenix Sword’s power dissipated, he considered using Asura Sword.
But using Purple Lightning Divine Sword, coupled with the Blood Elixir Power in his body.
Yet, he dismissed this idea, for unlike Ice Phoenix Sword, Ice Phoenix Sword was his Martial Soul, with protective benefits under his control.
Whereas the Blood Pill in his body was uncontrollable.
If he entered the Demonic State, utterly crazed, he couldn’t predict what might happen.
Blood Pill might rampage further, reaching an unmanageable stage.
Looking back, it was fortunate he refrained from entering the Demonic State with Asura Sword again.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have comprehended the Fourth Form of Blood Realm Four Forms in such a clear state, reversing the battle.
"The battle can end now." Xiao Yi’s eyes turned cold.
Holding his sword, headed straight for the four Elders who were blasted away.
The Four Great Elders simultaneously contracted their pupils.
In their eyes, Xiao Yi, was entirely bathed in blood.
Seeming like a Blood Asura.
Combat strength towering, terrifying to the extreme.
The four fell into a sequence of shock and panic.
Elder Jingz Yue was the first to respond, "Join forces, swiftly kill this child."
The other three instantly reacted. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
"Blood Mirror Dao." Elder Jingz Yue shouted, swiftly casting a sequence of techniques.
"Hua Moon Unpredictable." Elder Hua Yue also shouted, his hands curving intricately.
"Shui Moon Rivers and Seas." Elder Shui Yue’s body seemed to reflect a vast ocean.
"Holy Moon Ten Thousand Paths." Elder Holy Moon, sealed with one hand, connecting with the dazzling Blood Moon in the sky.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yi, upon coming with his sword, suddenly furrowed his brows.
The next second, his face instantly changed.
His swiftly advancing figure became unable to move.
The surrounding space, scenery, transformed drastically.
He was within a hundred miles from the Four Great Elders.
At his speed, he should have crossed it instantly.
Yet now, this small distance seemed like an insurmountable chasm, with him unable to approach a single step.
"Space Dao?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brows.
"No, this is Illusion Realm."
Xiao Yi instantly realized, the surrounding space transformed bizarrely, indistinguishable between reality and illusion.
From afar, the Four Great Elders chuckled coldly, also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everything, settled to dust," Elder Jingz Yue nodded.
Elder Hua Yue sneered at Xiao Yi, "Kid, you think our Mirror Flower Water Moon four titles came easily?"
Elder Holy Moon laughed most sinisterly, "Little waste, know the reason why your Heart Fire Illusion Dao was strong but couldn’t affect us?"
"Because you’re too weak, pathetically weak."
"An old man’s Dao Heart forged over eighty thousand years, can it be influenced by your trifling Illusion Dao?"
"Not to mention the more prolonged Dao Hearts of Elder Jingz Yue and others."
"Similarly." Elder Hua Yue sneered, "With such formidable Dao Heart laying out Illusion Dao, your great measures cannot affect us."
"Today, only death awaits."
