305: Chapter 35 Glass!

Qin Yan stood dumbfounded, barely able to believe his eyes.

He... with a casual strike, had actually caused space to completely collapse?!

This power had already far exceeded the scope of his understanding!

In his cognition, even an Eighth-Rank Grandmaster among humans could at most strike out a spatial rift with a full-strength blow.

To cause a spatial collapse of such scale and thoroughness was almost impossible!

"Could it be... the power of my strike now has already surpassed an Eighth-Rank Grandmaster?!"

This thought made Qin Yan feel a wave of dizziness; it felt both utterly absurd and yet the facts before his eyes were undeniable.

"Hall Master, this... this blood-colored rune, what exactly is it? Why can it grant me such power?"

Qin Yan's voice carried a hint of trembling, containing both the shock of obtaining power and a deep wariness of the unknown.

This power came too suddenly, was too strong, and felt too surreal.

Blood Absolute's blood-colored starlight eyes gazed at him calmly as he slowly uttered four words:

"Blood Dao Profundity."

Profound Truth! It was Profound Truth again!

Qin Yan's pupils suddenly constricted.

He naturally knew what Profound Truth was; he himself possessed one-ten-thousandth of the Spear Dao Profundity.

But that one-ten-thousandth of Profound Truth mainly improved his talent and perception in the Spear Dao; it didn't provide a direct and massive boost to his immediate combat strength.

According to the information he obtained from the Profound Truth fragments and common knowledge, for a Profound Truth to directly and significantly augment a user's strength—allowing them to invoke the power of corresponding laws—it needed to reach at least 'one percent' completion!

Could it be that... the dark red rune Blood Absolute just struck into his body contained at least one percent of the Blood Dao Profundity?!

This guess made Qin Yan's heart race wildly.

One percent of a complete Profound Truth! Its value was simply immeasurable!

No wonder it could instantly grant him such inconceivable power!

But immediately after, a more critical and unsettling question surfaced in his mind.

"Hall Master," Qin Yan's voice became incredibly solemn as he looked directly at Blood Absolute's massive blood-colored figure, "with my current cultivation and physical strength, how could I possibly withstand the power of at least one percent of a complete Profound Truth? This... this is illogical!"

According to common sense, if such a massive amount of law power were forcibly infused, let alone a Third-Rank Martial Artist like him, even stronger Fourth, Fifth, or even Sixth-Rank experts would likely be instantly blown apart.

Yet, aside from the initial shock and information overload, he didn't feel any discomfort now. Instead, he felt this power was like a part of his own body, operating smoothly.

This was too abnormal!

Hearing Qin Yan's question, the eyes composed of blood-colored stars narrowed slightly, as if revealing a hint of surprise.

"I didn't expect you, little fellow, to have such a deep understanding of Profound Truth."

"It seems you also have some opportunities of your own."

However, Blood Absolute wasn't interested in Qin Yan's opportunities and instead explained slowly: "In my lifetime, I once mastered thirty percent of the Blood Dao Profundity.

At such a level, one can be honored as a—Blood Dao Controller."

When the word "Controller" was spoken, though the tone was flat, it naturally exuded a supreme majesty that looked down upon the Great Dao and wielded the laws, making Qin Yan's mind shudder.

Blood Absolute continued: "Since it is 'control,' my comprehension and application of the Blood Dao Profundity are beyond what ordinary comprehenders can compare to.

Not only do I know what it is, but I also know why it is so. I can, to a certain extent, analyze, guide, and even... temporarily 'bestow' the use of Profound Truth power to others without requiring the recipient to possess a matching realm or capacity.

Of course, this requires two prerequisites."

"First, my own profound control over the Blood Dao Profundity allows me to construct a temporary, stable 'law framework'.

By constraining the Profound Truth power within it, it's like forging a sturdy 'armor' for you, allowing you to wear and use its power without being instantly crushed by the torrent of laws it contains.

"Second, and most crucially—you yourself must possess an extraordinary 'Blood Dao affinity talent,' or rather, your constitution and bloodline must be able to generate a sufficiently strong resonance and adaptability with the Blood Dao Profundity."

"Within your body, there seems to be hidden a very special power closely related to the source of blood.

It is the existence of this power that allowed you to achieve compatibility with the 1% Blood Dao Profundity power I bestowed.

Otherwise, even with the framework I constructed, if an ordinary Third-Rank Martial Artist were to forcibly bear it, at best their meridians would shatter and their soul would be wounded; at worst, they would be instantly assimilated by the Profound Truth, becoming part of the laws and dissipating completely."

After hearing Blood Absolute's explanation, Qin Yan suddenly understood. So that was it!

It wasn't that his body had suddenly become incredibly tough, but that Blood Absolute, a former Controller, had used supreme means to tailor a 'power container' for him, and the Blood Demon Nest in his body happened to be the 'perfect key' to drive this container!

At the same time, stormy waves rose in Qin Yan's heart.

Mastering thirty percent of the Blood Dao Profundity in life, a Blood Dao Controller!

Although he wasn't sure which specific realm that corresponded to, just thinking about it—merely 1% of Profound Truth power, bestowed through this special method, could allow him to erupt with destructive power suspected to surpass an Eighth-Rank Grandmaster...

Then how earth-shattering would the power of Blood Absolute, a 'Controller' who fully mastered 30% of the Profound Truth, be at his peak?!

Perhaps even a Tenth-Rank True King would not be enough before him!

As for whether there were realms above True King, Qin Yan didn't know, but Blood Absolute's strength was definitely at a level he currently couldn't imagine.

Suppressing the shock churning in his heart, Qin Yan turned his gaze once again toward the intense battle high in the distance.

Now, he understood why that blood-robed woman possessed such terrifying strength.

Presumably, she had also received a 'Profound Truth bestowal' from Blood Absolute, enabling her to contend with the Black Demon Emperor's clone.

"Only..."

Qin Yan frowned slightly, his gaze returning to the high-altitude battlefield.

He saw the woman in the blood-red robe with flying red hair, and her situation seemed to be getting worse.

Although the river of blood she swung was still grand in momentum, it was clearly lacking in follow-up strength, being swallowed or dispersed time and again by the rolling black mist in treacherous ways.

Massive palm prints, hideous beast heads, and even invisible soul shrieks condensed from the black mist constantly pressured her, forcing her back step by step. The edges of her blood-red robe even showed several traces of damage eroded by darkness, and the blood mist around her had thinned considerably.

"Alright, kid, you now know the reason."

Blood Absolute's low voice pulled Qin Yan's thoughts back to reality.

"Time is pressing. Liuli cannot hold out alone for long.

Go and lend her a hand. Combining the power you two have temporarily obtained, it should not be difficult to defeat that Black Demon Emperor clone."

"Otherwise, once Liuli's strength is exhausted and she falls, and the Black Demon clone breaks the seal, not only will this Canglin Ancient Peak turn to ashes, but the outside world... will also face a catastrophe! At that time, all living beings will suffer!"
