"You little beast! No matter how you try to deny it, tonight I will avenge my son!"

With a cold shout, Jia Shun was too lazy to say anything more to Chen Shi, and his arms suddenly turned into beast claws!

Blood and Qi condense into form!

The strength of a martial artist lies in his blood and energy; the path of martial arts is rooted in nourishing the blood.

Grade 9: Nourishing Blood and Strengthening the Body; Grade 8: Blood and Qi Explosion; Grade 7: Blood and Qi Condensation.

Once one breaks through to the seventh rank, the blood energy erupting from the body becomes increasingly concentrated, to the point that it is no longer an intangible energy, but rather a tangible entity.

Jia Shun's pair of beast claws were formed from blood and qi.

Don't underestimate these mere beast claws; they pose little threat. In reality, formed from blood and energy, their attack and defense capabilities are comparable to divine weapons.

Chen Shi gripped the broken sword in his hand tightly, his expression extremely solemn.

The hatred for the murder of his son needed no further explanation, and Jia Shun immediately rushed forward.

Without any fancy moves, it grabbed at Chen Shi with one claw.

Chen Shi took a deep breath, his broken sword surging with blood energy, and charged directly at the enemy.

Boom!

Another loud bang rang out, and the broken sword in his hand trembled violently. The strong recoil caused Chen Shi to stagger back several steps once again.

"That's some real strength."

Jia Shun also took a few steps back, looking at Chen Shi with a gloomy expression.

The ninth-grade Blood Nourishing Realm primarily enhances strength. After the eighth-grade Qi Explosion Realm, strength doubles again, but by the seventh-grade Blood Condensation Realm, the increase in strength becomes less significant.

Jia Shun's initial blood-nourishing martial arts were only of low grade. Later, he relearned high-grade martial arts, and his strength increased to 800 jin. When he exploded, he could reach 1,600 jin, but in the end, he could not compare with Chen Shi's 4,000 jin of strength.

However, his blood and qi were solidified and his body was as solid as a rock. These seemingly ordinary beast claws helped him to neutralize most of the force.

"Is this the power of blood and qi solidifying into form?"

Chen Shi stared at Jia Shun's pair of beast claws, flexed his aching wrists, and his expression grew increasingly solemn.

It still looks like a body of flesh and blood, but in reality, it is harder than steel.

When blood and qi condense into form, it is tantamount to transforming oneself into a divine weapon.

"die!"

While he was pondering, Jia Shun pounced on him again.

Chen Shi frowned, his eyes scanning the rest of Jia Shun's body.

He already knew how powerful those beast claws were, so he decided to "avoid the strong and attack the weak" and target other parts of Jia Shun's body.

When Jia Shun attacked with his claw, Chen Shi dodged to the side and used his broken sword to sweep across Jia Shun's waist and abdomen.

Clang!

With a piercing sound, Jia Shun suddenly extended his other beast claw, directly blocking the knife.

A cold smile flashed across his face, and he withdrew his other hand again, still reaching for Chen Shi.

Chen Shi couldn't retaliate in time and could only dodge again. But Jia Shun was extremely fast and his angle was quite tricky. With a tearing sound, he ripped the clothes on Chen Shi's shoulder, leaving three shallow bloody marks.

Chen Shi was startled, but before he could react, Jia Shun attacked again.

Chen Shi's thinking was correct, but consider this: how many years has Jia Shun cultivated, and how long has he cultivated? The difference in their techniques is far from negligible. How easy would it be to bypass Jia Shun's beastly claws?

Without time to think, Jia Shun's beastly claws attacked, and Chen Shi had no choice but to meet them with another slash.

Pa~!

But this time, at the instant the blade and claws collided, Jia Shun suddenly clenched his five fingers together and gripped the blade directly.

"Oops!"

Chen Shi's expression changed drastically, and he was about to quickly pull the broken sword back.

Click! Boom!

But the next moment, Jia Shun exerted force with his beast claws and crushed the broken knife.

The knife was already riddled with nicks and chips. It was only because Chen Shi wrapped it with his blood energy that it could continue to be used. How could it possibly withstand Jia Shun's beastly claws?

With only the hilt of the knife in hand, how can one perform sword techniques?

"die!"

With a cold shout, Jia Shun's other beast claw came slamming down.

Chen Shi had no time to dodge and could only hurriedly raise his palm to meet the attack.

Bang~!

With a muffled thud, Chen Shi was knocked to the ground and rolled several meters away like a gourd.

He quickly got up from the ground, only to feel a series of sharp pains in his palm, guessing that his hand bones were fractured.

Fortunately, the burst of energy earlier isolated some of the damage; otherwise, it wouldn't have been as simple as a bone fracture.

"Um?"

Taking two steps back as well, Jia Shun glanced at Chen Shi on the ground and frowned.

Having just mastered the Qi Burst technique, he can unleash his blood energy simply by using his limbs without relying on any special moves; he certainly has some talent.

Immediately afterwards, Jia Shun's face darkened again. The more this happened, the more this child could not be allowed to live.

They immediately pounced on him, intending to kill Chen Shi before he could regain his footing.

"broken……"

Seeing Jia Shun pounce on him like a ferocious beast, Chen Shi's face turned deathly pale.

Unstoppable.

The gap in strength between him and Jia Shun was too great. Not to mention that he didn't even have a broken piece of his sword now, even if he had a good sword, he would definitely not be a match for him.

Since that's the case, then I won't block it.

Chen Shi sighed and stood there with his hands clasped.

"..."

Upon seeing this, Jia Shun was taken aback. Was he resigned to his fate and waiting to die, or was there another conspiracy?

But then Jia Shun's eyes turned cold again. No matter what, Chen Shi was going to die tonight!

"die!"

Having reached him, it let out a roar and its beast claws viciously lashed out at Chen Shi.

Swish!

Just as Jia Shun was about to crush Chen Shi's head, a cold light pierced the night and suddenly stabbed towards him.

Jia Shun's expression changed instantly. He disregarded Chen Shi and hurriedly withdrew his hand to block.

Clang!

A piercing sound rang out, accompanied by a shower of sparks.

Taking advantage of the situation, Jia Shun took a few steps back, stood still, and looked again, and couldn't help but frown.

A woman.

Although few women practice martial arts, and even fewer achieve mastery, there are always some female masters in this vast world.

The problem is, Jia Shun doesn't know this woman.

This woman is not a member of the Jing'an Marquis's household.

Jia Shun couldn't help but look at Chen Shi, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Where did this master come from, a mere servant?

Although they had only exchanged blows briefly, Jia Shun had already discerned that this woman was also a seventh-rank martial artist!

"I thought you weren't coming out."

Looking at the broken willow branch in front of him, Chen Shi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Since A Qing had laid a trap, he must have something to rely on. Besides A Qing's own eighth-rank cultivation, Chen Shi had to be wary of whether there were other experts among them.

Knowing this, Chen Shi still dared to intercept and kill A Qing tonight because he also had something to rely on.

Break off a willow branch.

With a cultivation level of seventh rank, under normal circumstances, that would be enough to protect his safety.

"If I come out too early, how will you break through?"

Zhe Liu remained expressionless and said indifferently.

Chen Shi was speechless for a moment. He had almost been killed by A Qing. Zhe Liu was really strict.

"If you can't handle this one, I will."

Zhe Liu spoke again, his gaze fixed seriously on Jia Shun.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Chen Shi nodded, said something, and turned to leave.

Taking advantage of the moment when he was fighting with Jia Shun, A Qing escaped.

"Don't leave!"

Jia Shun shouted and was about to step forward to stop Chen Shi.

Swish!

But with a flash of cold light, the longsword in Zhe Liu's hand was already piercing towards his throat.

Jia Shun's eyes widened, and he quickly dodged and responded.

Just as he blocked that sword, several more sword lights appeared, some thrusting, some slashing, all aimed at vital points on his body.

"hateful!"

Jia Shun frowned. It seemed impossible for him to kill Chen Shi tonight.

I decided to stop thinking about it for the time being and focus on dealing with the enemy at hand.

"We caught up!"

A moment later, after crossing a hill, they saw a figure running hurriedly across the wilderness under the cover of night, clutching his shoulder.

A cold smile crept across Chen Shi's lips as he chased after them.
