Chapter 113: Qin Versus Lan Ming Part 2
Lan Ming didn't advance this time. He was hurt more than Qin. The wound made by Qin's sword was quite deep. But, Qin wasn't injured that much. This is a big disadvantage that Lan Ming has.
Although Qin is a sword cultivator, he is not a body cultivator But, he has trained his body with lightning and ice, and the overlord method created a strong defense for him.
While Lan Ming was recovering, Qin hurriedly got up and patted the dust. Although there were a few bruises on his body, it was nothing major. Then, he turned his head at Lan Ming and his eyes widen.
'This is my chance. Strike when the iron is hot!'
Qin stomped his foot on the air, forcing out a massive air explosion behind his foot and dashing towards Lan Ming like a cannonball. His right hand pressed the hilt of his sword. Before he reached Lan Ming, he landed on the ground and stomp his foot.
"Ultimate Ruthless Sword- Equinox"
Lan Ming's eyes shrunk when he saw Qin. He forgot about his own injuries and condenses an extreme amount of grey qi into his fist. He coats his fist with the fist intent. Suddenly, his hand releases the burning yellow flames.
When these flames appeared, surroundings started heating up. The temperature was wildly increasing and everything around him started burning, even the ground and the air.
"Four Directions Desolated Fire Fist!"
The flames compressed on his fist as he smashed it towards the upcoming sword. It was straight and had no fancy moves but if he takes this sword head-on, he will be seriously injured. Lan Ming is fully aware of that which is why he didn't hesitate to use Star Core Flame.
This flame is an Earth Rank Flame with the extreme power to burn anything in its path. Flames are divided into four ranks starting from Profound, Spirit, Earth, and Heaven. Lan Ming almost died while conquering this Earth Rank flame.
If it wasn't for an overbearing devouring force of the Heaven Devouring Star Swallowing Technique, he wouldn't be able to conquer this flame.
Boom!
His fist went straight against the sword and collided with it. When the sword touched the flame, instead of cutting it apart, the flame exploded on the collision.
But even so, the sword still made through the flames and struck Lan Ming's fist. And, it also made a powerful slash but the power of the explosion sent Qin flying before it could hurt him further.
Thud!
Once again, Qin landed far away on the ground but this time, his injuries were serious. The power of flames burned his skin and even the part of his clothes. On other hand, Lan Ming got a deep scar on his fist but the flame didn't even burn him.
After all, the flame had already surrendered to him, it couldn't hurt him now no matter how much he uses it. And, this is the best part of these flames. Even if his qi empties, he can still use the flame but he does need qi to strengthen the power of the flame.
'Damn! Even the power of Star Core Flame wasn't able to block his sword attack. He is not only using the sword energy and a bit of killing intent, but he is also using the physical strength to back it up. If I keep on doing this, I won't be able to stick till the end.'
'He also has a strong body so he won't get seriously injured with these normal attacks. My Fist Intent isn't able to do anything but why? Is it because of sword energy or is it because of physical strength? No.. That shouldn't be possible.'
'He is using something that I am unable to see but what is it? Damn! I am already burning a lot of stamina. Do I have to use the Divine Eyes of Heart?'
'I guess I have no choice.' Lan Ming gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. For a moment, he calmed his mind, and generally, he started seeing things with his eyes closed. And, he could even see something more.
His new eyesight fell on Qin and the next moment, he noticed a thin layer of energy surrounding him. For a second, he got confused as he asked himself 'This looks like an intent but what intent is this? And, why does it seem overbearing? But, this does explain why my fist intent was canceled out each time.'
'But, why can't I identify this intent?'
Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide and thought 'Is that truly what I think it is? But, how did he even have the cultivation technique for condensing this intent? No.. If I remember it correctly then that technique is still in the Supreme Martial School.'
'It is their inherent technique. How did he get his hands on something so powerful? Is he a reincarnation like me? But, I have been reincarnated just after I died and I didn't hear single news of Supreme Martial School heritage getting stolen.'
'Damn! This is messing up my brain. I need to ask this. Maybe I will kindly answer me.'
Lan Ming thought to himself and opened his mouth "Do you practice Supreme Immortal Overlord Body Technique?"
Qin was still on the ground when he heard that. He slowly got up and shook his head "No, my cultivation technique is Overlord Body Technique?"
Hearing his words, Lan Ming's eyes shrunk as he asked "How many stages does it have?"
Qin narrowed his eyes as he felt a glint of danger from Lan Ming. But, he still replied "Three!"
Lan Ming's eyes widen even more when he heard that number.
'Three! The exact number that could possibly put that technique into the Domain Rank. I understand! I thought it was just a rumor but now it seems it wasn't. Eyes of Universe truly allows a person to copy any cultivation technique or martial art they see.'
'But, he died thousands of years before even I was born in my previous life. And, at that time, he was already the legend of my world. So, how did the technique he copied appear on this mortal world? This is getting messier. I think I should stop thinking about this and rather focus on how to overcome that domination intent?'
'As for how it got here, I will learn when I enter the rune he left.'
Lan Ming thought to himself and started healing. This time Qin couldn't make a move because he was also hurt. But, Qin had a pretty good healing power which was good but when Qin saw Lan Ming's healing rate, he was stunned.
On other hand,
Lan Ming sighed a breath of relief and thought 'Heaven Devouring Star Swallowing Technique is truly awesome. Thanks to it, I was able to devour Tian Su's blood and enhance my regeneration ability. I need to get stronger and take it to a new level to completely enhance my regeneration ability to the level of the celestial bloodline.'
Soon, the wound on his chest got completely healed. He stared at Qin who was still healing his wound and smirked. Since he had already healed himself, he can take some measures.
'Should I use that? I haven't thought of using that in this battle but he is a worthy opponent. I guess that I should use it.'
The next moment, Star Core Flames appeared all around his body and started forming armor. It formed a helmet on his head, a chest plate, arm and leg guards, a lance on his right hand, and a shield on his left.
"Valkyrie Fire Armor!"
'Let's go!'
Lan Ming screamed in his heart and dashed towards Qin. He didn't make a huge leap rather kept running. He slightly moved his right arm back and gathered the momentum on his right arm.
Qin clenched his fist. He didn't take out his sword this time and used Ice King Spiritual Body Technique.
A thin layer of ice armor formed around his body, above his clothes. He also didn't hesitate to burst out brute qi inside his veins. He clenched his fist and throws a punch. Just in front of him, the tip of the lance was spinning at an extreme speed while generating powerful heat.
Boom!
His fist collided against the lance but this time, his foot didn't move even with the impact of the explosion. In an instant, both of them were in the middle of the explosion. The fire lance slowly started piercing the ice armor and melting it. But, suddenly, Qin raised his foot and kicks Lan Ming's head.
Bang!
But, Lan Ming saw it coming and raise his shield. The kick smashed the shield, creating a massive impact. Lan Ming's hand trembled for a moment but his lance was still piercing the ice armor. It didn't take long before the tip of the lance reached Qin's fist.
Splash!
