Chapter 6: Crisis of Life and Death

Seeing Lin Wu attack once more, Su Luo hurriedly dodged.

Fortunately, although Su Luo's strength was no match for Lin Wu's, as a cultivator, his agility and speed were not weak, allowing him to evade Lin Wu's successive attacks one after another.

However, this only infuriated Lin Wu.

"This time, I want to see if you can still dodge."

Lin Wu scoffed.

He took a deep breath, and his clothes billowed outwards; then, like a tiger pouncing down the mountain, his movements and speed became even more fierce as he lunged straight at Su Luo.

Knowing he couldn't evade, Su Luo hurriedly threw a punch, his True Qi circulating wildly within, transforming into a fist that collided with Lin Wu's hand, which was shaped like a tiger's claw.

The tremendous force caused Su Luo's fist and the whole arm to tremble violently, as intense pain swept over him.

And his entire body was sent retreating repeatedly by the impact until he hit the wall behind him, finally stabilizing his figure.

However.

Lin Wu was already charging at him again.

Transforming his claw into a fist, he smashed it towards Su Luo's face with the swiftness of thunder that could not be covered one's ears in time.

At that moment, Su Luo was so frightened that he felt his soul might leap out of his body.

He was certain that if he were hit by that punch, his head might explode and he would be killed on the spot; desperately, he tried to dodge.

"Bang!"

Although Su Luo narrowly dodged, Lin Wu's punch smashed into the wall, creating a hole and sending debris flying, which cut Su Luo's ear and drew blood.

But at such a time, Su Luo couldn't care less about the injury on his ear.

Another punch came from Lin Wu, and without daring to be distracted for even a moment, Su Luo exerted all his strength to continue dodging, with each evasion making him feel as if he'd narrowly escaped death, gaining an extra second of life.

But the disparity in strength was undoubtedly huge.

Relying solely on dodging, Su Luo knew it was not a long-term solution.

"You can't dodge this punch."

After Lin Wu had punched several holes in the walls of Su Family Ancestral House, he finally seized an opportunity and struck Su Luo with a punch.

Fortunately, Su Luo's Divine Sense could cover a range of one meter, allowing him to sense Lin Wu's intention in advance.

But sensing it was one thing, whether he could dodge it was another matter entirely.

Seeing that he couldn't evade the punch, Su Luo had no choice but to quickly cross his arms in front of him to protect his chest, preventing Lin Wu's fist from breaking his ribs.

Even so, Su Luo still felt as if he had been hit by a car, the pain in his arms was excruciating, almost as if they were about to snap off.

He was then sent flying by the punch, crashing through a wooden door in the old house and falling into the room.

"Puh!"

After he landed, Su Luo felt a sweetness in his throat and suddenly spewed out a mouthful of blood.

Lin Wu's previous punch had injured his internal organs with its powerful Inner Strength.

"Am I really going to be killed by him just like this?"

Su Luo was somewhat desperate.

He had originally thought that, after obtaining the cultivation inheritance and becoming a cultivator, he would start to reach the pinnacle of his life and would finally be able to hold his head high and be proud.

But to his surprise, just as his journey of cultivation was beginning, he encountered an enemy whose strength far surpassed his own.

"No, I can't accept this!"

"I can't just die like this!"

"Nor can I be captured by him and taken to the Dong Family to face humiliation again!"

Su Luo clenched his teeth; his real life was just beginning, and he could not let it end so gloomily.

There was also Aunt Shen, the woman who had given him her first night, the same woman who had taken his virginity; he hadn't conquered her yet, he hadn't snatched her away from Zhou Shihao's side yet—how could he die?

Su Luo was not willing to accept his fate so readily.

He quickly searched his memory.

"That's it."

Soon, Su Luo's eyes lit up.

He found a secret technique in his cultivation inheritance memories called "Forbidden Blood Technique".

The so-called Blood-Forbidden Technique involved burning one's own blood to forcibly enhance one's cultivation level and strength.

If the Blood-Forbidden Technique was cultivated to its highest realms, it could forcibly raise one's strength by an entire major realm.

For Su Luo right now, raising by a major realm was obviously unrealistic.

However, raising by a minor realm was something Su Luo could achieve.

He could burn his own blood to temporarily boost his cultivation level to the Second Level of Qi Refinement.

Although Su Luo was not sure whether he would be a match for Lin Wu even after reaching the Second Level of Qi Refinement,

he had no other choice at this point.

He couldn't worry about the side effects of the Blood-Forbidden Technique.

He had to make a desperate gamble!

Following the secret methods described in "Forbidden Blood Technique", Su Luo started the circulation; his blood began to boil, causing his skin to turn bright red as if scalded by extreme heat.

Not only that, but his eyes also turned somewhat blood-red.

At this moment, he indeed looked rather terrifying.

"If it were any other martial artist at the First Stage of Inner Strength, they would probably have died by my hands by now. Your strength is mediocre, but your vitality is stubbornly strong,"

Lin Wu snorted coldly.

He stepped into the room.

But this time, Lin Wu didn't hasten to attack.

He stood beside Su Luo, looking down at him, and asked, "Tell me, how did you cultivate this Inner Strength? Did your grandfather Su Xiazi leave you some secret manual for cultivating Inner Strength?"

"Yes, my grandfather left behind a secret manual for rapid Inner Strength cultivation, which is why I was able to cultivate Inner Strength in just a day or two," Su Luo said deliberately, trying to delay time while he executed the Blood-Forbidden Technique.

Lin Wu's eyes suddenly widened: "What you said, is it true?"
