Mortal To Immortal (Book 1)
MTI 198 - Unusual Abilities

The Yun Clan and the Yue clan who were the main founders of the Moon Cloud Sect had secret techniques passed down through generations through their bloodlines. This secret technique was learned as a bare-handed fighting technique or without relying on any heirlooms.

Both of these techniques have one thing in common: the tread attack technique. For the Yun clan, his name was the Death Cloud Palm, while for the Yue clan his name was the Blood Moon Palm.

Although not all the lineages of these two clans could inherit and learn this technique well, it was not possible to, there would be at least one person from each generation who could do well and become the mainstay of each clan even sects in the future.

Yun Ming as the Patriarch and Yue Song as the Grand Elder of the Moon Cloud Sect were certainly among the two people chosen by nature to be able to inherit this technique well. It was also what made the two dubbed the Gate of Death and the Gate of Blood, the two figures of the Gate of Black Flow that was respected and feared.

Yun Lian who was also known as the Blood Cloud Fairy, was destined by the heavens to inherit techniques from her clan because she was one of the three grandchildren of the Yun Ming Death Gate, it gave its own blessing to the Yun clan and the Moon Cloud Sect, especially since he was the number one young genius in the entire black flow sect.

Although it was called a hereditary inheritance technique, it did not mean that no outsiders of the sect knew of this one terrifying technique. At least the white flow party with the strength equivalent of a ten-star sect knew a little about this technique. Moreover, there are not a few victims of even neutral white streams who died because of it.

Seeing the discoloration of the skin of both Yun Lian's hands and the color of Qi enveloping the girl's body, Ji Wentian was shocked as well as cursing loudly in his heart. He belatedly realized that Yun Lian could use that legacy technique as his strongest attack.

Shen Qi and Honghao had not only failed to subdue Yun Lian, but had instead successfully injured the girl. Honghao did not receive injuries as severe as Shen Qi as he was not one of Yun Lian's main targets. But still the wounds he received could not be said to be light or could be healed easily.

Yun Lian did not stop after landing one Death Cloud Tread attack each on her two opponents. He ignored Honghao who was experiencing shortness of breath, his gaze fixed on Shen Qi whose entire body was screaming in pain. The girl was intending to give one more strike to take Shen Qi's life.

At the same time, Ji Wentian felt himself unable to just stay silent watching and eventually intervened. After all he knew Yun Lian would also target herself other than Shen Qi. Huang Mingzhu was shocked by his actions and belatedly blocked Ji Wentian's run towards the battleground.

Ji Wentian ran over while making some hand spells.

"The Protective Walls of the Land!"

The ground in front of Yun Lian trembled and rose to form a two meter high wall. Yun Lian had seen Ji Wentian running over to her, but did not care much about the wall of land in front of her. With just a single blow, the earth wall was smashed into pieces.

Not stopping just by making a wall of land, Ji Wentian made two gigantic hands that each captured Shen Qi and Honghao, respectively, then move quickly away from Yun Lian while bringing them closer to Shenghao to get first aid as quickly as possible.

After making the two far out of Yun Lian's reach, Ji Wentian approached then stopped being a distance with the girl. He tried to put on a calm face, inversely proportional to his alert attitude.

"I didn't expect anyone who's a generation with us to have abilities like you. It's a pity you're from the black stream."

Yun Lian's gaze was flat, in contrast to the look in her eyes that showed the spirit to finish off the young man.

Ji Wentian's jaw hardened, but tried to force a smile. The look on his face became even worse hearing Yun Lian's next utterance.

"You alone? Your fate will be worse than theirs. Die."

Yun Lian moved first and ran to attack Ji Wentian, trying to finish her affairs as quickly as possible. While Ji Wentian was also acting fast. His hand cast a hand spell and created another earth element magic that attacked Yun Lian nonstop.

Not relying on swordsmanship, Ji Wentian preferred to use elemental earth facing magic. Something he could deduce was Yun Lian who was so skilled in melee combat. Ji Wentian did not want to take the slightest risk especially since Yun Lian was using the Death Cloud Tread technique as the strongest attack.

Huang Mingzhu as one of the observers of the fight both felt itchy wanting to help, but was worried that it would burden Ji Wentian. Not that he doubted his ability, but because he was confident in Ji Wentian's ability which he admitted was one level superior to him.

Yun Lian and Ji Wentian continued to exchange attacks nonstop. Yun Lian was relying on the attack of the Death Cloud Site, while Ji Wentian who did not stop attacking with earth element magic.

At first Ji Wentian thought he could surpass Yun Lian in terms of amount of Qi and physical strength because the girl was definitely exhausted after going through a row battle with some of the previous white flow geniuses, but in fact the longer Ji Wentian difficult to remain calm.

'Is this girl a monster? How could any Basic Realm cultivator be as strong and have such high endurance as him?! I was like facing a Foundation realm cultivator alone.'

The repeated attacks of Yun Lian made Ji Wentian surprised. Each strike of the earth element magic was smashed into pieces or into dust. Even more surprising, most of them re-turned into ordinary land.

It made Ji Wentian wonder amazingly and wonder what kind of strange technique Yun Lian had learned, but he couldn't possibly ask her in her current situation.

"I must admit you are stronger than others and troublesome."

Ji Wentian smiled sinisterly. "Then you better just give up."

"Not until I can finish you off."

Yun Lian replied in a cold voice, then took a leap back quite a distance. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Yun Lian was flowing quite a lot of Qi in both of her eyes. Ji Wentian who felt it was the right time to attack immediately ran over while making a hand spell.

Yun Lian's eyes opened slowly, emitting a bright red light and looking at Ji Wentian's two eyes.
