Chapter 4611
The cyan blade gleamed with dazzling brilliance, slicing cleanly through the center of the massive energy-formed hand. Qin Xiaolin’s figure abruptly retreated as the giant hand disintegrated into smoke and vanished into the air.
This time, Qin Xiaolin failed to gain any advantage and was instead defeated by a single strike from Kai, leaving everyone astonished.
Narrowing his eyes, Qin Xiaolin’s murderous intent deepened. Without uttering a word, he launched another attack on Kai.
Whether Kai was injured or not, Qin Xiaolin had no intention of giving him any respite. If he couldn’t kill Kai in one strike, he would exhaust him to death. With his strength as a Wuzong master, Qin Xiaolin firmly believed Kai wouldn’t have the endurance to outlast him.
Clenching his hand into a fist, Qin Xiaolin unleashed a powerful punch from dozens of meters away. A translucent wave of energy shot rapidly toward Kai. The speed was so incredible that onlookers only saw a white streak of smoke between the two fighters, like the trail of an airplane cutting through the sky.
Bang!
Kai condensed his Qi into a blade once more, but this time, the blade’s light was significantly stronger—proof he hadn’t used his full power in the previous strike.
With a deafening clash, Kai’s blade slashed into the energy wave. Although he managed to neutralize most of its force, a portion still struck his chest with tremendous impact.
Kai’s body lurched backward, then hurtled through the air. His feet skidded across the ring, carving two deep grooves into its surface before he finally came to a stop at the edge.
Frowning slightly, Kai realized the true power of a martial arts master. Qin Xiaolin’s Qi force was on a completely different level compared to that of ordinary warriors.
Unlike ordinary warriors, whose Qi force is developed through repetitive training and physical exertion, martial arts masters possess the ability to release Qi force at will. Reaching the level of external Qi release is a sign of mastery. However, due to the inherent limitations of martial arts training methods, a master’s Qi force typically cannot sustain its full strength for long or maintain such high levels of condensation.
Compared to the spiritual power of immortal cultivators, Qi power lags far behind. This is why Kai, despite being only in the Bigu stage, can easily kill two martial arts masters.
However, Qin Xiaolin’s Qi power is vastly different from that of other martial artists. It is nearly equivalent to the spiritual power of immortal cultivators. No wonder Long Wu had warned Kai that martial artists in the Martial Arts Realm are not so easy to handle. Reaching this level elevates martial artists to an entirely new plane of power.
It’s no surprise that many martial artists dream of reaching the Martial Arts Realm, dedicating their lives to this goal. Yet, achieving it is no simple task. Alongside rigorous practice and natural talent, one also requires fortuitous opportunities.
“You’ve withstood two of my attacks—you’re the strongest grandmaster I’ve encountered since leaving my retreat. Your physical body is more formidable than I expected. You must have used some kind of elixir to refine it. If you hand over the elixir to me, I might consider sparing your life,” Qin Xiaolin said, his gaze fixed enviously on Kai’s exposed bronze skin.
“You’ll let me go?” Kai sneered, the corners of his mouth curling up. “I killed your son and your nephew. Do you really expect me to believe you’ll spare me?”
“When you’ve reached my level of cultivation, familial ties are nothing but burdens. Once I achieve immortality, I won’t have to worry about lacking heirs. If you truly possess an elixir that can refine the body and you give it to me, I swear to let you go…”
Qin Xiaolin’s words left everyone stunned. None of them expected him to forsake vengeance for his son in pursuit of a mere elixir.
