Chapter 180: Chapter 154 Style Doesn’t Matter Anymore_1

Two days had passed, and Zheng Yichen felt his mood growing increasingly impatient; more than half of the fifteen days had gone by.

"Brother Chang Qing, we can now protect ourselves properly," Lin Yaoyao said to Zheng Yichen, after hesitating several times.

Zheng Yichen rubbed his face and looked at the three girls in front of him. With his support, their cultivation of Blood Asura was advancing at an incredible pace.

Their temperaments had changed significantly as a result. The red lines under their eyes were very distinct, and Liu Hongzhao even had a faint red mark appearing on her forehead.

A light circular ’vortex’.

Qi Xiangyun and Lin Yaoyao didn’t have it, and who knows how Liu achieved it, but as long as their cultivation didn’t go awry, it was fine. These few days their training had been normal, with the only exception being their overeating, without any other abnormalities.

There were no signs of demonic possession either, and it seemed there was no need. What they were practicing was magic power, the kind that grew faster the more frequently they fought.

"On the last day, you should strive for as much improvement as you can, today I will be very strict," Zheng Yichen exhaled, having made his final decision.

Like yesterday, the bait attracted a large number of aberrant creatures. His frequent battles these past two days had made him much more adept at using Blood Combustion Return to Origin, not so much in terms of increasing his transformation, but his control was vastly improved from the previous few days.

He was now somewhat confident in attempting to light the Demon Flower, considering the resistance he would encounter on the way. Those Boundary Breakers wouldn’t let him complete this task easily.

"Later, you will approach the Demon Flower with me."

Allowing them to act freely wasn’t out of the question, but then there was the risk that while he was dealing with the Demon Flower, an enemy would come to tell him how something had happened to Qi Xiangyun and the others because he’d left them elsewhere, leading to unexpected mishaps.

The very thought made him feel sick.

Zheng Yichen, seeing the girls’ confusion, continued: "Our meeting was not a mere coincidence, it was arranged by someone."

"..." Qi Xiangyun remained silent, not doubting the truth of Zheng Yichen’s words. Zheng Yichen taking them along to contend with the Demon Flower was inherently illogical, as they couldn’t provide any substantial help, but instead continuously delayed his progress.

Their existence was an interference and influence on Zheng Yichen, and wisely, she didn’t ask if Zheng Yichen would come to their rescue if they encountered danger.

"That’s why you need to grow stronger, gain enough power to ensure your own safety and have enough freedom to make your own choices. At the very least, you’ll be able to hold out longer in certain situations, waiting for my return," he said.

In today’s battle, Zheng Yichen deliberately slowed down the pace, giving them the opportunity to perform, while also observing their combat effectiveness. Qi Xiangyun had a variety of moves that she combined smoothly with Blood Asura’s fluid transitions between offense and defense.

Lin Yaoyao’s fighting appeared rough. The sword technique she used was not very standard, reflecting her focus on the cultivation of Blood Asura rather than sword skills.

Liu Hongzhao’s performance caught Zheng Yichen’s attention, making him take another look. He wasn’t mistaken, this girl seemed to have unleashed ’Sword Qi’?

The precious sword she had taken from an aberrant creature extended her attack range with pale red Sword Qi as she swung it. Zheng Yichen could feel the power of wind in those Sword Qis; the blood from the sliced aberrant creatures turned into a mist, more conspicuously converging towards Liu Hongzhao.

Zheng Yichen was impressed; was this girl a martial arts prodigy? Even Qi Xiangyun, who had been learning martial arts since childhood, couldn’t match Liu Hongzhao’s performance, at least Qi Xiangyun’s attacks were merely covered with Inner Strength that she acquired from the cultivation of Blood Asura.

She could produce attacks similar to Sword Qi, but they lacked the fiery intensity of Liu Hongzhao’s every strike.

Zheng Yichen casually swung the black spear in his hand, and the resultant Wind Blade cut through numerous aberrant creatures, but the nature of that Wind Blade felt different compared to Liu Hongzhao’s. His Wind Blade was simply a Wind Blade.

Liu Hongzhao’s, however, included an extra layer from her martial arts, making it more solid. In terms of power, it couldn’t surpass the Wind Blade that Zheng Yichen produced, but this was due to the fundamental difference in their base strength. If she had Zheng Yichen’s kind of power, the intensity of her Sword Qi would be different.

To rate the performance of the three girls so far: Liu Hongzhao was above average, Qi Xiangyun was medium, and Lin Yaoyao was the most mediocre... below average.

As the battle went on, the black spear in Zheng Yichen’s hands turned into a crimson color. Liu Hongzhao, coming out of the immersive battle state, couldn’t help but glance at Zheng Yichen then looked at her own sword.

Zheng Yichen had only learned Blood Combustion Transform to Origin and Blood Sacrifice.

She attempted to combine these two techniques, just like Zheng Yichen did. The moment she tried it, her eyes lit up. Imitating Zheng Yichen made her feel that her attacks were stronger; the Sword Qi she released extended twice as far and its power had significantly increased.

Even the aberrant creatures with hardened shells couldn’t withstand the Sword Qi and were effortlessly split open.

But after maintaining it for a while, her face began to pale. Even with the devouring trait absorbed from Zheng Yichen’s blood and an extensive absorption of blood energy, she couldn’t maintain her state, and the weapon in her hand trembled lightly, struggling to control the nearly bursting Blood Sacrifice.
