Chapter 416: Do You Believe This?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A clone of Chen Fei emerged from his body, flashed, and disappeared in an instant, heading straight towards Tong Wenxuan’s location.

“Do you think you can stop me by relying on a clone?”

Seeing the clone separating from Chen Fei, Tao Shiye burst into laughter. Clones like this were achievable through various cultivation techniques and weren’t particularly rare.

Within the many legacies of the Heavenly Sun Mansion, there were two methods to cultivate clones, but very few made it their primary cultivation technique.

Clones were useful in certain situations, such as when facing uncertainty, allowing the clone to scout ahead and detect potential dangers early on.

However, clones had an inherent flaw – their strength was extremely weak, and they were almost useless in direct combat.

Among the Heavenly Sun Mansion disciples who chose these clone techniques, most were aware of their limited talents and sought alternatives.

“Do you have to resort to killing to stop someone?”

As Chen Fei’s words fell, his entire body suddenly radiated an intense heat, and a scarlet flame burst forth from him.

It was similar to the scene when Sheng Renyuan had burned his blood essence before, but Chen Fei’s current display was even more extreme. The scarlet color seemed to truly transform into flames, even his hair turned blood-red in an instant.

Blood Ignition Technique!

Using blood as fuel, completely burning it to gain a power boost.

Blood Ignition Technique wasn’t considered a rare skill; you could say that in many cultivation techniques, there was such a desperate move. Especially in the Body Tempering realm, where there were no apertures to burst, the only option was to burn one’s blood essence.

The ultimate display of the Blood Ignition Technique’s power depended on how much strength was contained in the blood essence you were burning. The greater the power contained within the blood essence, the stronger the boost you would gain after burning it.

Chen Fei’s blood essence came from the tempering of the Suppressing Dragon Elephant. In the Aperture Tempering realm, Chen Fei had never seen anyone with a stronger physique than his, not even those at the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm could compare.

After obtaining the Blood Ignition Technique from the Rain Pavilion last time, Chen Fei combined it with some secret techniques recorded in the Blood Origin Technique, creating an enhanced version of the Blood Ignition Technique.

In terms of blood manipulation, the Blood Origin Technique was indeed the most powerful technique Chen Fei had ever seen. Unfortunately, it had a malevolent nature, and reckless cultivation of it led to more harm than good.

The enhanced version of the Blood Ignition Technique would burn the blood essence to the maximum extent, even to the point of exhausting all of it.

In simpler terms, using this enhanced Blood Ignition Technique meant giving oneself no way out.

If others used regular Blood Ignition Techniques, they could recover in a few months if it was a mild case, or a few years for more severe cases. However, if someone used Chen Fei’s version of the Blood Ignition Technique, their strength would increase, but they would likely turn into ashes in no time.

In response to this Blood Ignition Technique, Chen Fei, following the instructions in the Blood Origin Technique, had specially opened a small s.p.a.ce in his chest cavity, specifically used to store blood essence. Chen Fei would even occasionally purify the blood essence inside, making the contained power even more refined. And at this moment, the Blood Ignition Technique was burning the blood essence in this area.

For Chen Fei himself, burning only this specific area posed no threat.

Tao Shiye felt Chen Fei’s aura steadily rising, and his expression changed instantly. At first, when he saw Chen Fei use the Blood Ignition Technique, Tao Shiye didn’t pay it much mind.

The Blood Ignition Technique was indeed effective, but the power boost it provided wasn’t usually to an extreme degree.

However, at this moment, Tao Shiye was watching Chen Fei and had a strange feeling that Chen Fei seemed to have burst his own apertures, otherwise, how could the increase in his aura be so exaggerated?

Initially, Tao Shiye was confident that he could hold out until Tong Wenxuan arrived, as he believed that Tong Wenxuan was only moments away. But now, Tao Shiye realized that the situation had taken a turn he couldn’t control.

With a step forward, Chen Fei’s Qianyuan Sword was enveloped in a b.l.o.o.d.y aura. When he thrust the sword, everything else in Tao Shiye’s field of vision disappeared.

The momentum of this sword overwhelmed all of Tao Shiye’s thoughts. At this moment, it was as if Tao Shiye had stopped thinking altogether.

“Ah!”

Suddenly, Tao Shiye roared in anger, and all the apertures in his body began to shatter, a scorching aura sweeping in all directions.

Tao Shiye hadn’t expected that, with Tong Wenxuan so close, he would have to resort to the method of shattering his apertures to seek a glimmer of hope.

He was only four apertures away from reaching the peak of the Aperture Tempering realm. After that, there was a good chance he could break through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm, a realm that countless martial artists dreamt of.

But now, by shattering his apertures, even if he managed to escape today, the injuries to his apertures would be permanent. Even with those sacred healing medicines that could repair aperture injuries, the old injuries would remain. Perhaps after recovery, they wouldn’t affect Tao Shiye’s combat abilities, but the possibility of breaking through to the Combined Aperture Tempering realm was now entirely out of reach.

Moreover, even if he reopened those four apertures, whether they could form a cohesive whole with the other 108 apertures to achieve the true peak of the Aperture Tempering realm was a huge question.

However, at this moment, Tao Shiye had no other choice. Techniques like the Blood Ignition Technique were also in his repertoire, but they didn’t provide much power. The only option left was to shatter his apertures.

If he didn’t shatter his apertures, he might die from this sword!

Outside the dense forest.

Tong Wenxuan was about to rush to the location where Tao Shiye’s aura was coming from when suddenly, a figure blocked his path. Tong Wenxuan frowned because the person in front of him had no aura at all..
