210: The torch is passed down

Yun Li pinched Lu Xingchen's waist and said softly, "Speak normally."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "I learned a Martial Skill from Li Fei before that allows me to consume Blood Qi in exchange for massive defensive power."

Hearing this, Yun Li's eyebrows slightly rose.

"I remember now, you used that Martial Skill to block Lin Yuan's palm last time, didn't you?"

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "You're right."

Yun Li said softly, "Then your Blood Qi must have been consumed quite a bit, right? Is there any burden on your body?"

Lu Xingchen shook his head slightly, "It won't affect my combat power."

"That's good!"

The two flew back to the Cangxuan Sect's defense zone and continued to intercept demonic cannonballs with bows and arrows.

Three hours later, the Demon Race launched another siege.

Just as the Demon Race soldiers had just flown onto the city wall, the aura around Yun Li surged dramatically.

This feeling was very strange; although her Realm hadn't increased, her battle Qi intensity had nearly doubled.

Her body's recovery ability, defensive power, offensive power... in short, all her attributes had doubled.

Feeling the change in Yun Li, Lu Xingchen was greatly surprised and hastily asked, "Miss Yun Li, what's wrong? Why have you suddenly become so fierce?"

Yun Li shook her head slightly, "I don't know either! I just feel my blood boiling, and my combat power has greatly increased."

Lu Xingchen's eyebrows slightly rose. He spread out his Soul Power and was then shocked to discover that the combat power of all Human Race soldiers within a thousand-meter radius of the city wall had suddenly increased dramatically.

The extent of this increase was terrifying!

But this was only the limit of Lu Xingchen's perception range, not the limit of this mysterious power.

Half of the Demon-Rejecting Pass, near the front line of the city wall, was covered by this mysterious power, and the combat power of all Human Race warriors within its range significantly increased.

Those Human Race warriors themselves were stunned.

"Damn, what's going on? Why have I suddenly become so strong?"

"I feel like all the blood in my body is boiling! Could it be that a Human Race Grand Elder used some powerful secret technique?"

"It's not just our Xuantian Sect; it seems all the warriors in the entire Demon-Rejecting Pass have been affected. Simultaneously strengthening millions of Human Race warriors above the Martial King Realm, even a Martial Saint Expert probably couldn't do that!"

"Yeah, yeah! What exactly is going on?"

Just then, an old and stern voice echoed throughout the entire Demon-Rejecting Pass.

"Kindling has descended! Little scoundrels of the Demon Race, why do you not retreat quickly!"

Hearing these words, the faces of all the warriors in the Demon-Rejecting Pass showed joy.

"Kindling has descended! The Kindling of the Human Race has appeared! This is simply too good!"

"Legend says that Kindling is the inheritor of the Human Race's Bloodline, and those who possess the Power of Kindling Fire not only Cultivate extremely fast but can even activate the Bloodline Power within Human Race warriors, greatly increasing the combat power of Human Race members."

"Since the founding of the nation, only three Human Race Kindling have appeared, even rarer than War Gods. The times when Kindling existed were always the most prosperous for the Human Race. When the last Kindling descended, the Human Race even had a glorious moment of counterattacking the Demon Race, but unfortunately, they did not succeed in conquering the Demon Abyss."

"This is not strange, this is not strange. So Kindling has descended! No wonder I've become so much stronger. With Her Excellency Xin Huo here, the Human Race's chances of winning this Human-Demon War can greatly increase!"

Hearing that old and stern voice, Lu Xingchen's eyebrows also slightly rose.

Yun Li had told him about the legends of the Human Race Kindling before.

Kindling is the inheritor of the Human Race's Bloodline Power. Besides Kindling, the Demon Race and Yao Race also have inheritors, called Heavenly Blossom and True Blood, respectively.

However, the probability of these inheritors appearing is very low.

Such a low probability, yet Lu Xingchen had encountered it.

However, the Bloodline Power within him had not been activated; he felt nothing.

Lu Xingchen guessed that this might be related to him being a Transmigrator, with subtle differences in his Bloodline compared to the Human Race of the Tianyuan Continent.

But this did not hinder his fighting.

At the same time, he speculated in his heart that the Human Race's third Kindling should have appeared long ago, but was kept hidden by some Grand Elders, only to be revealed at critical moments like the Human-Demon War to give the Demon Race a surprise.

Yun Li was also full of joy and laughed, "Xingchen, this is great! Kindling has descended! It seems that in this Human-Demon War, our Human Race should have no problem defending the Demon-Rejecting Pass."

Lu Xingchen laughed, "This is a great piece of good news. I just don't know what the name of this Human Race's Her Excellency Xin Huo is, and what her cultivation is like?"

Yun Li said softly, "Rumor has it that Her Excellency Xin Huo's Cultivation has no Bottlenecks. As long as she doesn't die young, she is bound to Breakthrough to the Martial Saint Realm. But that's not the most important thing; the important thing is that she can mobilize the Bloodline Power of all Human Race members."

"This powerful ability is something even a Martial Saint Expert cannot possess."

All Human Race warriors in the Demon-Rejecting Pass looked towards the source of the sound.

They saw a woman in a blue dress standing gracefully in the sky above the center of the Demon-Rejecting Pass's city wall, with a white-haired old man behind her.

It was obvious that this old man was the one who had just spoken, Her Excellency Xin Huo's Dao Protector.

To be able to spread his voice throughout the entire Demon-Rejecting Pass with battle Qi, he was most likely a Martial Saint Expert.

However, the distance was too far, and Lu Xingchen could only see a blurry silhouette; he couldn't even clearly see Her Excellency Xin Huo's figure, let alone her face.

With the help of Her Excellency Xin Huo, the Human Race warriors' strength surged, and their morale also greatly increased, easily fending off the Demon Race army's attacks.

On the other hand, the Demon Race, upon learning the news of Kindling's descent, were all horrified, and a trace of fear arose in their hearts.

This siege only lasted for half a day before the Demon Race leader ordered a retreat.

The Demon Race army retreated like a tide, leaving behind a large number of corpses on the Demon-Rejecting Pass.

With the Demon Race retreating, the Human Race warriors immediately cheered with joy.

"These bastards of the Demon Race, why did they retreat so quickly? Are they afraid of our Her Excellency Xin Huo?"

"I haven't even had enough fighting yet, and they retreated. What a bunch of spineless fellows!"

"The Human Race army suffered basically no losses in this battle, while the Demon Race suffered heavy losses. This is all thanks to Her Excellency Xin Huo. Kindling descends, Human Race prospers!"

"Hahaha, I just killed a Demon Emperor, and it felt so good! Her Excellency Xin Huo is terrifyingly powerful, increasing my combat power by nearly twofold."

Just as everyone was cheering, a pitch-black demonic palm appeared in the center of the Demon-Rejecting Pass's city wall, striking down furiously towards Kindling's direction.

The defensive Spirit Formation of the Demon-Rejecting Pass had no effect on it whatsoever and could not stop its advance.

All the warriors on the Demon-Rejecting Pass were intimidated by this powerful force, and some weaker warriors were even shaken to the point of spitting blood.

Lu Xingchen frowned and said in a deep voice, "Such a powerful force, a Demon Saint Expert from the Demon Race has made a move!"
