Chapter 512: Fake Soul-Power Warrior

Bloodline… Bloodline Power! Hayen Brianna was a bloodline warrior!

Qian Jin just realized that Hayen Brianna was a bloodline warrior.

Gomez Jane looked at Hayen Brianna who was still in her awakening and walked to Qian JIn. “She should be the last one, right?” She asked.

“This…” Qian Jin shook his head with a bitter smile on his face. “No…”

“There are more?”

“No, I mean we are not…”

“Will be eventually.” Gomez Jane coiled her arms around Qian Jin’s and said quietly, “I can tell that she likes you.”

“I…”

“You don’t have to explain anything. Just let it play out.” Gomez Jane looked at Qian Jin and said, “You will have a headache in the future. There is only one of you, but you have to spend time with all of us. Others might be envious of you, but you will realize that there just isn’t enough time.”

Qian Jin gave up this topic. A woman would always win an argument even if she doesn’t talk often. That wasn’t the right battlefield for a man.

“Fabredis! You beat me so many times when you became a Saint Warrior! But now I’m also a Saint Warrior, hahaha!” Marc Gavin shouted excitedly. “I will let you know the consequences of beating me the next time we meet.”

“Soul-Power, I condensed my warrior soul! Haha!” Te Jofy rushed out of the gate and shouted. “Hey guys, let’s battle again. I will only use one hand, how about it? If not, how about I don’t use my hands?”

Qian Jin shook his head as he looked at Te Jofy’s back. This fatty loved showing off. It looked like those bandits were in trouble. In the realm of Soul-Power, Te Jofy’s soft belly technique was terrifying. Qian Jin wasn’t even sure if he can break the technique, let alone the regular bandits.

Yi walked into the yard and looked at Marc Gavin, envy was written all over his face.

“Saint! Saint Warrior! Why wasn’t that me?” He thought.

“Yi, let’s practice a little?” Marc Gavin looked at Yi interestedly.

“Fu*k off!” Yi responded angrily. “Can a Saint Warrior be compared to a Soul-Power Warrior? I can’t fight against you even if your hands are tied behind your back.”

“Eh, so boring.” Marc Gavin shook his head as he said, “I finally became a Saint Warrior, but I lack a good opponent.”

“Let me be your opponent.” Bhang Wusheng suddenly raised his voice: “I had never battled with an ordinary Saint Warrior. Let me see what is the difference between an ordinary Saint Warrior and a bloodline Saint Warrior.”

“Ok, sounds good!” Marc Gavin got excited.

Yi stopped paying attention to Marc Gavin. He approached Qian Jin and asked, “Did you just condense a Golden Warrior Heart?”

“Yeah.”

“Great.” Yi let out a heavy exhale and continued, “Since you are on this level, I can finally execute my plan.”

Qian Jin was curious. This shadow of his never liked talking to him, why was he talkative today?”

“You should go and take the No.2 Bandit Group,” Yi said. “The Second Leader and the others are pretty powerful. If you went there before getting the Golden Warrior Heart, you might lose.”

“You can continue being the Big Leader.” Qian Jin shrugged his shoulder.

A bitter smile appeared on Yi’s face. “Do you think they would still listen to my orders when I’m a shadow?”

“Getting the No.2 Bandit Group?” Duren Burg got close and laughed. “Interesting! We have to take it! Qian Jin, in the future New Generation Competition, I will be the No.1, you can be No.2, and Cech Flet can be No.3. We would all be entitled to create our own legions. If we have these bandits…”

“I will be No.1, Qian Jin would be No.2, and you will be No.3…”

Cech Flet fought back like a little kid.

“Yuck! You can’t use your Bloodline Battle Form then, what can you use to get No.1? Even if you used the Bloodline Battle Form, you can’t defeat me.” Duren Burg argued. “I will be stronger than you then.”

Bam…

Fanta Kunge fell to the ground and created a metal-earth colliding noise. That interrupted Duren Burg and Cech Flet’s argument.

Although he condensed his Warrior Heart, his body stiffed as he absorbed so much metal-essence. There was so much pressure on his body that he fainted.

Qian Jin helped Fanta Kunge to sit up and sent the heat energy from his Heart of Earthly Fire into Fanta Kunge’s body. Although this heat energy couldn’t become Fanta Kunge’s energy, it would be able to dissolve the thick metal-essence. Like melted metal, the metal-essence in Fanta Kunge’s body started to flow smoothly. Slowly, the essence got pulled into each and every one of the reservoirs.

Fanta Kunge groaned and slowly woke up. Tears rolled down his cheeks as he looked at his hands.

“Warrior Heart! I condensed my Warrior Heart! From now on, I would be the youngest Fanta member to have a Warrior Heart!”

If Qian Jin’s record didn’t exist, Fanta Kunge would be sure that he was the youngest ordinary warrior to obtain a Warrior Heart.

“Congratulations.” Yi looked at Fanta Kunge with an envious expression. When he was at Fanta Kunge’s age, he didn’t have this strength and didn’t have friends like Qian Jin to help him.

Fanta Kunge got up and nodded. He couldn’t calm himself down from the excitement.

“Finished?” Duren Burg laughed. “Then let’s go and take control of the No.2 Bandit Group.”

“Take control?” Fanta Kunge looked at Qian Jin in confusion.

“Don’t underestimate them. Although my No.2 Bandit Group isn’t as powerful as Bhang Wusheng’s Bandit Group, the leaders are still powerful warriors. The Second Leader is a demon warrior with the Incubus Bloodline.” Yi reminded them.

“Incubus Bloodline?” Qian Jin frowned. Incubus Bloodline was a rare bloodline that was comparable to the Unicorn Bloodline. These Bloodline Warriors possessed the power of warriors and the magic of mages. On top of that, their cultivation speed was ultra-fast.

“Although he is only a peak Demon Extinguisher, he shouldn’t be underestimated. Incubus Bloodline is famous for their special technique. It is called [Underworld] and it would allow the Incubus Bloodline Warrior on that level to temporarily obtain a fake warrior soul.”

Qian Jin nodded. Fake souls normally appeared on ordinary warriors. It was the product of lucky cultivation. Most warriors would get to the level of Soul-Power, but due to the complexity of the condensation process, some warriors can only get to the Fake Soul-Power level with hard work. Although it was not real Soul-Power, warriors who had a fake soul were still very strong.

If a warrior with a fake soul battled with a Demon Extinguisher, he would win 100% of the time. A fake soul was a lot more powerful than the product of [Avatar] as it was the closest thing to Soul-Power.

The only thing was that fake souls were rare. Most people would try their best to condense warrior souls and fake soul mostly existed in stories.

“Second Leader Dicerdo has a fake soul,” Yi said with a serious expression. “On top of that, he is also an aggressive demon. When I had just met him, he was still very weak. But after two life-or-death battles, he was able to activate his bloodline.”

Qian Jin nodded. He understood what Yi was trying to say. This Dicerdo had a high chance of advancing during battle, it wasn’t a good news.

“Fake soul…” Qian Jin murmured. He had obtained a Golden Warrior Heart and the rotating speed of his warrior power after using all three of his Warrior Hearts could achieve 3,000,000 cycles. “How powerful is a fake soul?” He wondered.

“Thinking is useless now.” Duren Burg swung his Burg Spear and said, “Let’s go check them out!”

…

Although the sun was high in the sky, the late autumn wind was still a little chilly.

People can’t feel any heat from the sun. To make it worse, Qian Jin and his team were traveling towards a snow mountain.

The Frontier wasn’t big but it wasn’t small either. There were all kinds of terrain here.

When Yi had found this snow mountain years ago, he fell in love with it. Didn’t matter which season it was, there were always snow around. It was cool in the summer. In terms of winter… it was cold anyway so the snow didn’t make it worse.

White-Head Mountain. This was the name Yi gave to the mountain where his headquarters was.

When Qian Jin and his team just got into the territory of the No.2 Bandit Group, two bandits came out to greet them.

“Leader!”

The bandits jumped off their horses and saluted.

Yi closed his eyes and enjoyed this powerful feeling. If he didn’t enjoy it now, he won’t get the chance to anymore. “One of you can go notify other leaders and say that I want to have a meeting. The other one can be our guide.”

The two bandits looked at each other for a second. One of them went to give the message and the other stayed with Qian Jin’s team.

Qian Jin nodded as he saw all the structures around the headquarters. The defense lines and mechanisms the No.2 Bandit Group had was far better than that Pekar Bandit Group. If a force wanted to conquer this place, a lot of resources and men would be needed.

There were a lot of hidden watchtowers on the way into the headquarters. Qian Jin could sense that he was targeted by a lot of huge arrows that were secured on huge crossbows. Even horses with a heavy armor would be turned into meat skewers.

The No.2 Bandit Group didn’t look flashy at all. Everything seemed very low-key, but numerous dangers were hidden in this low-key presence. Like sleeping beasts, they could tear enemies into pieces once they opened their eyes.

The open field in the headquarter was huge. More than a dozen leaders were standing in the center of the open field with armors on their body and weapon in their hands. They all looked at Qian Jin’s team with suspicion.

A cold stare passed through the crowd and hit Qian Jin. Goosebumps immediately appeared on Qian Jin’s skin and he discovered a thin demon with fur all over his neck.

Incubus Bloodline Demon Warrior! Qian Jin looked at this demon with curiosity. He didn’t even see the legendary the Unicorn Bloodline Warrior in the academy yet, but he got to see the equally famous Incubus Bloodline here.

“Leader, is he the new leader that you chose for us?” When Dicerdo talked, it seemed like only his skin was moving. Mixed with his direct and confrontational voice, it felt like he was as hard as iron and couldn’t be cracked.

Hard! That was the impression that Dicerdo gave to others.

Duren Burg rotated his spear and stabbed it into the ground. He straightened his back, cleared his throat, and then pointed at Qian Jin. “Why don’t you all come here and salute to your new leader?” He said.

The leaders of the No.2 Bandit Group looked at each other and was confused. “Where did this punk come from? Does he want a good beating?”

“New leader?” Dicerdo sneered. “Leader, I heard that you are now someone’s shadow. If that is the case, you are no longer our leader. You are not qualified to decide who the next leader is. If he wants to be the new leader, no problem! He has to pass our fists first!”

Qian Jin frowned as he looked at the row of leaders. “Fist? Sure. I will go with your tradition this time. Who is going to fight me?”

“I will!”

A red-haired mid-aged man jumped out as he controlled the energies one meter around him using his palm. Level 3 Demon Slayer!

“Guys, let me, Chen Zuoxian, try them out first…”

Fanta Kunge raised his arm and stopped Duren Burg. He walked out silently. He wanted to fight! From Qian Jin’s achievements, they learned that they had to risk their lives to battle in order to find their own opportunities.

No judge was needed for fights like this. This wasn’t a fair match but a battle. There were only a winner and a loser. How to win? By any means!

As soon as Fanta Kunge and Chen Zuoxian’s eyes met, Fanta Kunge moved his feet and unleashed [Fury Lotus]. After practicing in the sand for so long, it was more effective when it was used on the solid ground.

Chen Zuoxian also made his move. His level 3 Demon Slayer power was unleashed.

The collision noises sounded as soon as they moved.

During the battle, Chen Zuoxian no longer was in the joking mood. Like a stimulated bull, he was direct and forceful. Like an iron whip, he slapped out his arm. Bam! Just the noise this move made with the air sounded like a wolf’s howl.

Bandits always had the most lethal strikes as only the winner of a battle could tell the tale. Chen Zuoxian’s move demonstrated that completely and sensation of death accompanied his strike.

Fanta Kunge clenched his right hand into a fist and punched out as his left leg pushed his body forward. Like a soldier in the suicide squad, he didn’t back down at all when facing this deadly strike.

When the two fists collided with each other, Chen Zuxian’s body shivered. His body got pushed back as he felt like he knocked into a purified iron pillar.

Fanta Kunge on the other hand also got the warrior power around his fist knocked apart. The Warrior Heart in between his eyebrows quickly rearranged the warrior power.

Chen Zuoxian was quick to adjust his condition. He immediately leaped forward and smashed down with both of his palms. Before the palms hit Fanta Kunge’s chest, Fanta Kunge’s shirt started to flutter.

Power! Chen Zuoxian utilized his level 3 Demon Slayer power to a perfect degree. Even the dust on the ground was sent flying.

Fanta Kunge didn’t panic. He took a deep breath and copied his opponent’s strike. He also pushed his palms toward Chen Zuoxian’s chest.

Upfront battle!

All the bandits were shocked. “Sh*t! Where did this kid come from? He is suicidal!”

Feeling the pressure around his chest, Chen Zuoxian’s viciousness was triggered. “I had been a bandit for a long time. Do you think I’m more scared of death than you? When I was risking my life, you were still drinking your mama’s milk!” He shouted in his mind.

“Direct? Ok!” Chen Zuoxian’s eyes opened so wide that the skin around the corners of his eyes got stretched. He pushed his palms down as he thought, “I’ll face you directly!”

Bam! Bam!

Their palms struck each other’s chest.

The bone-cracking noise sounded from Chen Zuoxian’s chest. His legs couldn’t root onto the ground anymore as he continued to back off and a burning pain could be felt from his palms. “What kind of body is that? Why does it feel like slapping an iron plate?”

Puff! Fanta Kunge felt a huge pressure in his chest and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. His body was falling backward as well, but he directly fell to the ground. As soon as his body landed on the ground, he patted the ground forcefully to use the repulsive force to get up. By using this momentum, he dashed toward Chen Zuoxian, filled his hands with warrior power that got cracked, and struck at Chen Zuoxian again.

Bam! Bam! Bam!…..

A series of colliding noises sounded. Chen Zuoxian flew backward like a sandbag. His chest completely caved in. After rolling on the ground for a few seconds after the landing, he puked out a few mouthfuls of blood and died.

The wind blew by the open field and the bandits all felt a chill in their spines. They weren’t scared by Chen Zuoxian’s death, but rather Fanta Kunge’s suicidal battle style. He won the exchange and was able to quickly recover. However, he gave up on recovering and chased after his opponent to end him.

Puff! Fanta Kunge also puked up blood after using warrior power when his chest area was injured. The warrior power of a level 3 Demon Slayer had a lot of penetrative strength. His Gold Essence Warrior Power and Bodily-Protective Techniques couldn’t defend against it completely.

“I won.” Fanta Kunge slowly straightened his back as a smile appeared on his face. He was used to injuries and beating an experienced bandit really gave him a lot of confidence and joy.

“Take some medicine. I will check out the injuries after this.” Qian Jin handed over a bottle of potion as he looked at Dicerdo. “Next?” He asked.

The bandit leaders all looked at each other again. They thought these young men were all noobs, but even the first one was this ferocious. Who knew how powerful the others were.

“My turn.”

A bandit who was in his fifties walked out with a spear in his hand. Duren Burg laughed as he jumped out with his Burg Spear. Bloodline power was activated and the Bloodline Battle Form appeared.

“Hydra Bloodline Warrior? Golden Warrior Heart? Level 8 Demon Extinguisher?”

The bandit who just jumped out shivered.

“Fu*k! A Hydra appeared here? Level 8 Demon Extinguisher… How can I win… I’m only a level 9 Demon Slayer…” He thought.

(P.S. We would be changing the term – Heart of Earthy Fire into Heart of Earthly Fire. It sounds a little bit better. Minor change and you guys might not even notice, just a FYI.)
