Modern Cultivation : The Strongest Couple Bonded by Vampire System

Chapter 345: Sparring 2 vs 1

This information made Alex realize the awakened here meant they somehow enhanced the species' unique ability, awakening their bloodline and mixing it with their qi core.

Despite never utilizing it, Alex was not a stranger to the concept of bloodline.

As an avid novel reader, it would be shameful if he couldn't link all the information he got.

"Cultivators in MingYue World used Bloodline as enhancement, but these people took it a step further by uniting it with their golden core, giving their qi a unique attribute."

For example, MingYue's old bloodline was the Ice Kirin. If she became awakened, this would allow her qi to have an innate ice element without her doing anything. This would also enhance her physical strength, giving her the power of a Kirin, depending on her blood purity.

"In a sense, both MingYue and I could be called awakened cultivators since we infuse lifeforce into our qi. It's just like a fusion of energy; it just works differently."

"Cough, what are you thinking about?" Moria asked, feeling confused.

Alex suddenly became busy with his own thoughts in the middle of the conversation. He was now touching his chin, his eyes deep in thought, completely ignoring Moria.

"Oh… Sorry, senior, I am just thinking about something."

"Since you already got everything, how about having a spar? I already prepared the place."

"Sure, let's go," Alex replied while securing the storage pouch into his ring.

Outside, the two people still waited for him. They wanted to follow, but Moria gestured for them to wait there.

He didn't want anyone to know Alex's capability; the fewer that knew, the better. The path was illuminated with luminous crystals placed inside beautiful stone lanterns.

The atmosphere was serene and peaceful, with only the sound of crickets in the background.

Alex passed through many large courtyards. Each was guarded by a few cultivators. Occasionally, he also passed another group of guards patrolling the path.

After a few turns, Moria led Alex into one of them. The guards just gave way as they already recognized Moria.

"The cultivator world really looks like those from the Eastern fantasy novels. Now, I am sure one of the original authors really came from this world. Who is he? Have I read his book or not?"

Your journey continues on ???

While his mind wandered, Moria brought him underground. They reached a huge opening.

The cavern walls were adorned with many combat scars: a slash of a sword, an explosion, a stab of a spear.

In contrast, the floor was covered in large tiles without a speck of dust. It looked like it was made from concrete with a glossy finish, but Alex knew it wasn't a normal material.

In the middle of the area, Reina stood holding a spear.

Alex's lips curled into a smirk, "I thought I would only fight with you. So we are going two against one?"

"We will take turns, and you can take a break in between. I hope you understand. I need to make sure I know how strong you are. This is very important for me." Reina said.

"No need, let's just finish this. Go at once." Alex said while his foot stomped on the ground.

The next moment, he appeared in front of Reina, just an arm's length away. Reina quickly turned alert and leaped back to put some distance.

Alex could have pursued her, but he decided not to. He raised his hand, gesturing for them to come first.

Reina exchanged gazes with Moria. Both of them then jumped forward. She thrust her spear while Moria's hand grew larger and turned into a beastly claw.

Bam!

Alex didn't even move. Red liquid came out from his back, transforming into two large hands, both blocking their attacks.

His crimson eyes glinted with a green hue. "Go all out. This is too weak."

Reina's qi started coming out from her body, creating a huge wind in the silhouette of a dragon.

The wind-like dragon started condensing into spectral-like armor surrounding Reina.

Swosh! She shot forward like a tornado.

Moria didn't make a move; he decided to watch from the side. If he went all out, he was afraid it would hurt Reina by accident.

Even if it was a small scratch, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself.

The blood around Alex started contorting and moving toward his hand. It turned into something like a gauntlet.

He then leaped forward, meeting Reina's attack head-on.

CLANG! BANG!

The sharp whirlwind exploded, creating many scars on the floor, while Reina's reptilian eyes widened in surprise.

It wasn't the first time someone stopped her attack, but to do it to this extent blew her mind. Alex's hand was clutching her spear right under the blade despite her spinning speed.

Alex yanked her spear, throwing her toward Moria. Seeing this, Moria's eyes flickered with anger. His body grew in size, followed by wings coming out from his back, making him look similar to the dragari Luca had fought before.

But his target was not Alex; he moved as fast as possible to catch his princess.

Alex stomped on the ground, followed by a streak of red moving quickly, appearing on top of Moria.

BAM! He punched, sending Moria's transformed body deep into the ground.

His lips then curled into a smirk, looking at Reina flying toward him. Alex raised his hand forward, the blood transforming once more from a gauntlet into a soft barrier, effectively catching her without hurting her.

"Is this enough, senior? I could do more if you wanted."

Moria stood up, his shoulders slumped with relief seeing nothing happened to Reina. He then looked at Alex, his eyes reflecting fear and worry.

The strength Alex showed was something out of his imagination, to the point that he started wondering if Alex was capable of facing his whole clan.

"That is enough. Tell me how much strength you used in this fight."

Alex's lips curled into a grin. "For your peace of mind, it's better you don't know, senior. Don't worry. I will keep up with our agreement."
