342 Fourth Master Is Gone?
One hundred red qi tiger wolf pills had enabled Qin Huai to break through the bottleneck of the fourth-level bone pattern realm.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Qin Huai gently extended his finger and activated the blood heart technique. In an instant, a mouthful of blood spurted out, drifting around the room according to his will. This was the same technique six-fingered Zou Shuang used in September Hook.
Qin Huai then activated the four-directional tiger-wolf technique. The blood gathered in front of him and gradually transformed into a small blood wolf, identical to the ones in his dantian world. The power and strength of the fourth-level bone pattern realm made the little blood wolf’s form extremely sturdy.
Slowly, Qin Huai injected a white speck of light into the blood, compressing the entire white dragon and infusing it with the long breath forbidden technique, earthquake dragon. His face lit up with joy as he realized, “Blood is still considered your own body.”
He had used a similar move in his battle with Mou Jinfu, extending the white dragon into the blood. However, Qin Huai had never succeeded since then. He thought it was because his blood essence was not stable enough and needed other moves to complement it.
As expected, he could display the four-directional tiger-wolf technique once he reached the fourth-level bone pattern realm.
Qin Huai controlled the young blood wolf with his mind as it walked out of the courtyard. As the distance increased, the blood wolf’s body became unstable, and his aura began to scatter.
At seven meters, the blood wolf exploded, causing his courtyard to turn red with the eruption of the poison king technique’s poison blood mist and poison dragon shock.
“Is it not stable enough?” Qin Huai wondered.
“Fifth Master! Fifth Master, are you alright?” someone shouted outside the courtyard, banging on the door.
“I’m fine, just training. If you hear anything, ignore it,” Qin Huai replied indifferently.
“Understood!” came the response from outside the door. The two guards also tactfully moved further away.
Qin Huai continued to practice the techniques. This time, he formed a young blood tiger. As it sprinted away from his feet, he became even more focused. The blood tiger managed to reach ten meters before exploding.
On the third attempt, Qin Huai condensed a blood dragon. However, when he cut off the blood dragon’s finger, it shattered, causing half of his house to collapse. Broken wood fell on Qin Huai’s head.
However, he didn’t care at all. “As expected, I can only use the tiger and wolf forms if I rely on the four-directional tiger-wolf technique because I need this kind of blood essence and power to stabilize the structure,” Qin Huai mused.
He tried the four-directional tiger-wolf technique twice more but couldn’t break the ten-meter mark. His face grew pale.
“I’ve invested too much vitality… It can be optimized,” he said. “The tiger wolf created by the blood heart technique and the four-directional tiger-wolf technique doesn’t cause much damage… It’s just a carrier. The true power comes from the poison dragon shock.”
Qin Huai immediately began optimizing the technique. After resting for two hours, he transformed his blood essence into a hollow shell with a white light dot floating between its eyebrows.
“It’s feasible.” He sighed, controlling the blood wolf to run away.
At a full twenty meters, the blood wolf exploded with a loud bang, its shocking power undiminished. Without the support of rich vitality, however, the range of the poisonous fog was smaller.
The next moment, he released more than ten young blood tiger wolves at an extremely fast speed. An ordinary bone pattern realm expert would only see a bloody shadow before the tigers and wolves pounced on them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The explosive force was intense, filling the entire courtyard with a bloody mist and blasting the ground into smithereens. It was almost as powerful as Qin Huai’s poison dragon shock.
Though not as strong as the three beasts technique, this power was enough to kill a bone pattern realm expert from a distance, reducing the risk and increasing the difficulty exponentially.
“Let’s call it the collapsing blood technique,” Qin Huai finally decided.
“Fourth Master is gone!” a wail suddenly came from outside the courtyard.
Qin Huai rushed out to see Shao Mo’s trusted aides sitting on the ground, crying.
“What happened?” Qin Huai asked, picking one of them up. He glanced at the open courtyard door but didn’t enter immediately.
“Fifth Master, Fourth Master is dead…” the man sobbed, trembling.
“What happened?” Qin Huai frowned deeply, looking at the man for a long time, unable to extract any useful information.
He turned to another person, who explained, “Today, we came to deliver food to Fourth Master. Actually, we’ve been delivering food to him these past few days. He instructed us not to enter and disturb him, so we’ve been sliding the food through a small door under the courtyard. In the first few days, there was still some movement.
“But things have been different since the day before yesterday. He didn’t touch any of the dishes. When they got cold, we’d take them out and replace them with new ones.
“After four days, we couldn’t help but call out a few times. But there was no response. We mustered up our courage and went in. In the end… In the end…”
The person wailed uncontrollably, “In the end, Fourth Master is gone.”
Qin Huai glanced at the courtyard, sensing that there was no unusual aura inside.
