Besides the fruit of brilliance, Zhang Tie had another great achievementāāa fruit of bloodline, which increased Zhang Tieās empty bloodline energy to 34,150 points. As a result, Zhang Tie could activate more bloodlines at the critical moment.
As for how many bloodline energy points could a fruit of bloodline bring him, Zhang Tie didnāt figure it out until now. After all, it depended on the enemy, the difference in the battle strength between Zhang Tie and his enemy and the difficulty in killing his enemy. As for the details, perhaps only the small tree knew.
For instance, the death of Han Zhengfang brought Zhang Tie 15,687 bloodline energy points. That was really a fierce battle. However, this time, after killing three semi-sage level knights, he only got 34,150 bloodline energy points. As for the reason, Zhang Tie didnāt feel like studying it. No matter what, he was already satisfied as long as he had a fruit of bloodline.
Besides, the small tree also continued to bear fruits of redemption like before. After taking all the fruits, Zhang Tieās overall strength increased again.
However, when Zhang Tie was so thrilled that he thought he could completely recover his battle strength, he finally discovered the sequela of the combat between him and Versatile Demon Emperor...
...
After taking the fruits, Zhang Tieās spiritual energy surged and reached a new level. However, the battle qi in his qi sea was still empty. At this moment, a whim occurred to Zhang Tieāāfilling the void above qi sea with his own spiritual energy.
To put it simply, with Zhang Tieās control, the enormous spiritual energy in his mind sea would rush into the grey fog in the void above his qi sea. He intended to fill the grey fog with sufficient spiritual energy so that it would not absorb his battle qi any more.
According to Zhang Tieās knowledge, now that the grey fog in his mind sea and in his qi sea were both left by the Breaking Formation Immortal Thunder, he could clean up the two balls of energy by the same method. The grey fog in his mind sea had already disappeared after eating enough spiritual energy; Zhang Tie thought that he could clean up the same grey fog in his qi sea in the same way.
Although there was no spiritual energy in his qi sea, Zhang Tie could transfer his own spiritual energy into his qi sea.
Zhang Tieās conjecture was correct.
After absorbing enough spiritual energy, the remaining grey fog in Zhang Tieās qi sea gradually turned white; then, the white fog gradually faded away in the qi sea.
Zhang Tie thought that he had already completely recovered. He only needed to wait for the battle qi to show up in his qi sea and gradually become as much as before. Unexpectedly, after driving the grey fog away, the battle qi in his qi sea still remained at a very low level...
...
On April 4th, the 3586th year of Emperor NvWaās Calendar...
Under the Manjusaka karma fruit tree, Zhang Tie was sitting there in a dignified way for silent cultivation, legs crossed. From the start, Heller had been watching him with a concern...
In the beginning, Zhang Tieās face and body looked normal; however, after sitting there for half an hour, Zhang Tieās face gradually turned redder as he continued to tremble all over.
One hour later, Zhang Tieās face suddenly turned pale as he spurted out blood, which fell onto the cyan stone stairs leading to the sacrificial altar under the small tree...
āCastle Lord...ā
After hearing Hellerās words, Zhang Tie finally opened his eyes. Panting heavily, he slightly shook his head towards Heller, implying that he was fine. After that, he wiped the bloodstains off his mouth corners and watched the sacrificial altar in front of him.
The scarlet blood was very eye-catching. Zhang Tie felt like being torn apart by five vehicles when he tried to light his chakras.
Zhang Tie had adapted to light his own chakra by Purgatory Samsama Method. Whereas, he had not imagined that such a simple way could become a tough mission that would barely be completed.
There was only one reason for thatāāinsufficient battle qi!
Without the propulsion of powerful battle qi, even if Zhang Tie had great spiritual energy, he could not light even a bit of chakra. Because the process of lighting oneās chakra was the most important cultivation process of knights. Besides spiritual energy, the one factor which could reflect the knightās realm and battle strength was battle qi. Therefore, without the coordination of the most important battle qi, knights couldnāt continue the most important cultivation process anymore.
Previously, Zhang Tie didnāt feel that battle qi could be so important in this process. Now he realized it. Facing this result, Zhang Tie didnāt know whether to laugh or cry.
After closing his eyes and looking into his qi sea, Zhang Tie found that the grey fog had disappeared; however, the battle qi in his qi sea was as thin as oxygen in the plateau. The brilliant sun in the qi sea had disappeared. His battle qi was not as constant as rivers any more; instead, it became a lemon slice which was almost dry and would not produce any juice unless you squeeze it hard.
It was more like a LV 9 soldierās realm.
Zhang Tie revealed a bitter smile as he slowly calmed down. Then he picked himself up and came to the sacrificial altar under the small tree.
āCastle Lord, doesnāt it work?ā
āNo. Without the coordination of battle qi, even if I have enough fire elements, I couldnāt light a fire chakra!ā Zhang Tie said as he shook his head. This feeling was too depressing. Even if there were a lot of fire elements available, Zhang Tie couldnāt take them. It was like how a hungry man couldnāt open his mouth when a pile of delicious food was placed right in front of him. He tried to engulf one piece of flesh without the coordination of his battle qi; finally, he had to spurt it out. What was more, he was hurt; despite being not severe. āThe fatal strike of an immortal emperor is really tricky. At that time, I felt my qi sea was blown up. Although it was not blown up and I had finally survived, I couldnāt recover my battle qi in the qi sea anymore!ā As Zhang Tie said, he took a look at Heller, asking, āOh, do you have any idea...ā
āIf I had, I would have long told you, Castle Lord!ā Heller replied as he watched Zhang Tie seriously, āBut I think the sequela left by immortal emperor could be cured in Motian Realm; otherwise, Versatile Demon Emperor has long been unrivaled in this world. Nobody else could defeat him at all...ā
āI also think so!ā Zhang Tie took a look at the palace tree in a wistful manner as he added, āIt seems that I have to finish my vacation in Castle of Black Iron...ā
āCastle Lord, where are you going?ā
After hearing Hellerās words, a place flashed into Zhang Tieās mind at once...
