Chapter 162: Bloodline! (2/2)

BOOM!

A fierce evil spirit, summoned by an expert from the Ghost sect, ruthlessly rammed into Kan Xingming’s back.

Kan Xingming was sent staggering.

Meanwhile, the spirits of the two Qi warriors from the Grayvale sect were lifted. They both manipulated their spiritual tools to madly attack him as he stumbled back.

On the other hand, Nie Tian didn’t bother to check Kan Xingming’s situation, but rather once again extended his hand with a concentrated look in his eyes, and reached towards the other green vine.

Upon contact, the green vine was also quickly drained of all wood power and turned into flying dust just like the last one.

Eyes narrowed, Nie Tian remained calm and collected as he silently used his psychic awareness to pry into the abnormality of his heart.

It could be because his cultivation base was too low and his psychic power hadn’t congealed into soul power, that he failed to enter his heart to conduct a thorough investigation and unveil the mysteries within.

He could only faintly feel the wood power that he had taken in seemed to have already merged with his own blood.

His blood carried the pure wood power as it slowly flowed towards his throbbing heart .

His heart was being nurtured as it continued to take in wood power, as if it were in a state where it was gradually awakening.

His eyes were wide and his face was filled with disbelief. “Bloodline!”

He didn’t know why, but he was very certain that bloodline power was now flowing within his body. Or to be more precise, his heart!

His master Wu Ji had once told him that bloodline power would often exist in the outsider races who had incomparably valiant bodies.

Numerous years ago, the formidable outsider tribes, whose power had been unmatched across the entire river of stars, were only able to be known as the mighty masters of the universe because of their bloodline power, their innate valiant bodies, as well as their lifespans that were much longer than humans’.

Only an extremely small number of human Qi warriors could awake their bloodline power, the reason being that they had outsiders among their ancestors.

Those people might be born with bloodline power. It was also possible that they could awaken their bloodline power at some point as they grew up and built up their strength.

It seemed that he belonged to the latter.

His whole life, he thought that there had been something unusual about his heart, but never did it occur to him that a formidable bloodline power was hiding inside of it.

Only after he had taken in enough wood power to nourish his heart, did the bloodline power that was hidden deep inside finally show a sign of awakening.

“Could it be that… my father isn’t human?” Overwhelmed by the thought, Nie Tian wondered.

He was one hundred percent certain that his mother was a member of the Nie clan, and there weren’t any records of their clan members having relationships with anyone from an outsider tribe in the history of the Nie clan.

The Nie clan was a human clan that couldn’t be more ordinary. None of their members were born with unearthly power. All of them were born with bodies that were no different from that of commoners’.

Since his bloodline power didn’t come from the Nie clan, then naturally… it must have come from his father, who he knew nothing about and had mysteriously disappeared.

“My father is either an outsider himself, or a hybrid who has outsider blood running in his veins.” Having realized his unusual birth for the first time, Nie Tian felt muddleheaded. Even still, he struggled to sort through the things that had happened to him in order to find the truth.

He had temporarily forgotten about where he was, along with the cruel Heaven Gate trial that he was in, and the floating city in front of him.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Just as he was contemplating these matters, multi-colored light beams once again shot out from within the city.

Simultaneously, the unusual energy fluctuations that had disappeared once again spread out from within the dilapidated city and rapidly rippled into the surroundings.

This time, Nie Tian, who was already very close to the floating city, was the first one to experience the unusual feeling.

In the moment the energy fluctuations dispersed into the surroundings, the seven scarlet light spots on the back of his hand instantly turned red-hot and started to shine with brilliant light.

The seven scarlet light spots were like seven bright stars as they continued to slowly swim around in the Heaven Gate pattern.

Without Nie Tian realizing it, numerous mysterious symbols were secretly taken into the seven glittering light spots.

POOH!

Also at this moment, Kan Xingming, who had three of his leaves forcefully taken by Nie Tian, seemed to have fallen into Qi deviation, and suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Face filled with hate and rage, he shot towards Nie Tian.

“It’s good that you’re coming!” With a chuckle, Nie Tian placed his palms opposite to each other and immediately started to form the chaotic magnetic field.

All he needed was for Kan Xingming to enter it!
