  With that, Aunty Shuan paused for a moment to see Feng Yu's reaction, and, as expected, Feng Yu was currently shocked.

  Feng Yu looked towards Aunty Shuan and shouted while stammering, "Ma... Marriage?! I haven't even accomplished anything yet. Just what are you saying? Absolutely Not! I request to hear the second option!"

  Aunty Shuan's face instantly hardened as she suddenly exposed a towering killing intent, "Humph! It seems that I was wrong about you in my previous judgment, the second choice is Death!"

  Upon saying this, a terrifying aura scattered about the area, the lake they were standing in burst into the air creating a swirling water cyclone.

  BAANNGG!

  As if they were waiting for this moment, all of the female disciples that were surrounding Feng Yu released their hidden auras as well. All of their Auras combined, causing havoc to fall on the environment inside and outside the lake.

  BANG! BANG! BANG!

  Seeing the aura of the disciples as well as Aunty Shuan that surrounded him, Feng was even more surprised inwardly. "Aura Disciples! They are not average Aura Disciples it seems." Despite all of what was happening around him, he did not panic instead he took a quick glance at Fu Ling. Noticing the determined gleam in her eyes and firm appearance she had, he soon made up his mind.

  "I Feng Yu have never been afraid of death in all my life! I will not lower my head to any form of oppression or unreasonable demand!! If you wish to take my life for this silly encounter, then I will fight you all to death!" With his statement made, Feng Yu no longer pondered about right or wrong. He instantly stimulated his bloodline prestige and transformed into his bloodline state.

  BANG! His essence energy instantly rose towards the peak, and a blinding golden scarlet energy shot towards the sky as his eyes turned golden and his hair turned golden scarlet with ancient markings covering his skin.

  Seeing Feng Yu's sudden change, the women were shocked.

  "Oh! A bloodline warrior, interesting..."

  "Sisters! This little brat seems to be quite interesting. Instead of killing him immediately, let's play with him a bit first, then take him back to the Union."

  Fu Ling was surprised. She revealed an interested gleam in her firm eyes, and her determination seemed to have gotten stronger.

  Aunty Shuan observed Feng Yu with a bit of surprise. She scanned his body with her powerful spiritual sense and exclaimed, "Such a powerful Bloodline Prestige! I've never seen or heard of a bloodline like yours in the True Yuan Continent. Boy! Where do you come from?"

  Feng Yu only stared at her in silence. He was ready to fight a deadly battle with no regrets.

  Seeing that Feng Yu was silent, Aunty Shuan shook her head silently, "Hmph! Fine! No matter. I can find out everything after we take you home. Disciples! Do not kill him! Break his legs and bind his spirit. We will be taking him to the empire capital!" She then turned around and walked towards an ancient tree outside of the lake.

  Hearing their master’s command, the girls became excited. They gathered their auras and readied themselves to beat Feng Yu into submission.

  "Let's Go! Hehe! Don't blame us little handsome, blame your bad luck!" One of the more impatient ones instantly rushed out to claim credits.

  Whoosh! She instantly transformed into a beam of aura light that shot across the lake at blinding speeds. Soon, she appeared 1 meter in front of Feng Yu and began to reach her palms out to grab him. A power constriction spread out suppressing all forms of movement within the space around him.

  Sensing the impending danger, Feng Yu pushed his concentration to the maximum as the opponent that charged towards him was at least at the 5th Tier of Aura Disciple realm. "No matter what, I have to use my all to get away from here!" He pondered inwardly while calculating his odds of escaping. With his powerful soul, he was no different than a supercomputer.

  "Wait!"

  Suddenly, a voice interrupted both parties from their engagement. Even the other females that were a step later in charging towards Feng Yu came to a stop. They each looked towards the source of the voice.

  Fu Ling walked out, soon approaching nearby Feng Yu. As soon as she reached Feng Yu's front, one of the girls said interrupting the battle.

  "Sister Ling! Why are you telling us to wait? Didn't you hear Elder Shuan's command?"

  Aunty Shuan, who was waiting at the nearby tree, suddenly acted "Ling'er! What's going on? Why are you stopping your senior sisters?"

  Hearing her Aunt's questions Fu Ling responded, "Aunty, I would like to handle my affairs! Please let me decide on how to solve this problem."

  The female disciples after hearing her words, became quiet, they then looked towards their master to see what she would decide.

  Aunty Shuan looked at Fu Ling with a bit of surprise. Looking towards Feng Yu for a bit, she then smiled at the Fu Ling and responded.

  "Fine! Ling'er, since it is your problem, I will no longer interfere, but remember the clan custom cannot be changed! You know what the result would be for not abiding by it." After saying this, she closed her eyes as if she lost interest in what was happening.

  Seeing that she got the go-ahead, the girls that surrounded Feng Yu soon backed off leaving only Feng Yu and Fu Ling at the center of the lake. The two stared at each other silently with the wind blowing softly. Their clothing made 'flap' 'flap' noises as they danced through its breath.

  Chapter 18:

  __

  The Power of a Charmist

  In a lake within the forest a man and a woman stood silently as they faced each other a few meters distance apart. Their clothes were dancing in the wind with their hair flowing about like immortals preparing for battle. A deep hue of azure blanketed the sky as the day was currently at its peak.

  The sun beamed its rays across the entire mountain range. The lights shone through the trees illuminating their figures underneath as colorful insects flew about at the edges of the lake.

  Feng Yu, who noticed that the situation might have taken a better turn, finally let out a sigh of relief. He looked towards Fu Ling carefully and inquired.

  "Miss Fu, how do you wish for us to solve this problem?" He asked in a polite tone.

  The girls, now observing from the lakeside, focused their visions on Fu Ling with an unusual expression. Aunty Shuan, who was watching, also had a strange glint in her eyes.

  As Fu Ling looked towards Feng Yu, she smiled sweetly then replied, "Daoist Feng, as I am a part of a Family Clan, there are customs that I must abide by. Not doing so will only lead to me paying severe consequences. As such, I will give you a choice through using another means. If you wish to avoid our marriage, then all you have to do is defeat me in a duel to death, do so and you will earn the right to your freedom."

  Upon saying this, her sweet smile soon changed, replacing her expression to that of a serious and determined one. As he heard Fu Ling's response and noting her firm appearance, Feng Yu soon realized that no matter which route he wanted to take, it would not lead to either her or the other females changing their minds.

  Quickly, Feng Yu cleared his thoughts and made his decision. He looked at Fu Ling staring intensely into her eyes as he replied: "Fine! I will accept your terms,

  Miss Fu. When do you wish to do this battle?"

  After getting his confirmation Fu Ling’er's series expression soon lightened up. She smiled and replied, "Great! Daoist Feng, Hmm, my aunt said that you are about 15 years of age which means it hasn't been long since you reached that age. Seeing as we are about the same age, how about we have a match right now? If you can persist my offensive for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, then you would have deemed yourself worthy of the death battle."

  Feng Yu who was feeling confident in himself smiled and replied: "As you wish! Let us test each of our skills then, Miss Fu." He swiftly postured his body for combat assuming the mantis stance of the .

  Noticing her opponent's stance Fu Ling's eyes light up as an excited look cam
e over her face. It seemed as if she enjoyed fighting very much. After closing her eyes, she stood in the lake without assuming any particular stance as her hands were placed by her sides. She then turned them to face Feng Yu's direction as she slowly started to spread her hands out a little distance away from her side.

  Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!

  Suddenly, five small objects flew out of her sleeves and started to rotate around her form, before coming to a stop at all corners. These objects were lustrous crystals in the shape of round balls, each being the size of a fist. Carved on each of their surfaces were a variety of unique characters:

  火 - huǒ, 水 - shuǐ, 金 - jīn, 土 - tǔ, 木- mù.

  The colors of these crystals were scarlet, azure, gold, earthen, and emerald.

  Seeing these small crystals surrounding Fu Ling's body, Feng Yu was shocked "An Elemental Charmist that controls Five Elements!! Such an incredible talent! I thought they only existed in legend! How could one appear in modern times?" He looked at Fu Ling's trance-like state, and a solemn expression soon appeared on his face.

  "Sigh, it looks like this will not be an easy battle. I've underestimated the talents that exist in this world." Feng Yu thought as he started to gather the power of his essence while maintaining his stance.

  As if stimulated by Feng Yu gathering his essence energy, Fu Ling's eyes that were closed abruptly opened.

  BANG! BANG!

  Two Essence energies erupted simultaneously throughout the area, causing the lake to ripple scattering about large waves from its center that traveled towards the hedges and trees surrounding it. A few of the smaller boulders, that were residing within the lake, were washed away and sent soaring through the air as they smashed through tall shrubberies colliding into tall trees.

  Aunty Shuan, observing the situation, waved her hands and formed an aura barrier that blocked all the waves and objects that were scattered from the lake.

  Sensing the amount of essence energy within Fu Ling's body, Feng Yu was surprised, "Strange! She is only at the mid-level of 7 Tier Body Training realm. Why is it that her essence has the same concentration as that of a Body Training Realm cultivator around the mid-level of an 8 Tier?"

  Pondering for a bit, he realized, "Could it be that she has practiced a Mystical Tier Cultivation Technique? Interesting. My Nirvana Flame Cultivation Technique focuses on strength incrementation while hers focuses on a warrior’s essence quantity."

  Fu Ling’er's gaze soon focused back towards Feng Yu. Inspecting his aura, she smiled, "Hmm, it looks like your strength is only at the peak of the Bone Refining Stage of Body Training. You won't be able to fight me if you don't use your bloodline."

  Feng Yu smiled as he gestured with his right palm, "No need to worry about that Miss Fu! Ladies First!"

  As she heard Feng Yu's statement, Fu ling frowned. She lifted her right hand towards Feng Yu and motioned her index finger drawing the symbol (水) with her essence energy.

  "Shuǐ Charm: First Seal Prison of Water" She shouted as the azure crystal ball quickly overlapped the character symbol then shone within the area with the bright glow of azure.

  Swwwoossshhhhh!

  A large stream of water soon gathered within the area surrounding Feng Yu's form. Eventually, it started to form a dome-like shape aiming to seal off all possible escape routes. Seeing the rushing water around him, Feng Yu remained calm as he revolved the movement technique.

  KA-BANG!

  "SparkFlash!" after a flash of light and loud roaring of thunder Feng Yu's body instantly vanished, escaping the dome of water that threatened to surround him and appearing in the air by Fu Ling's figure.

  A red glow quickly covered his palm as he launched his palm out in an aggressive manner not holding back in the slightest while shouting, "Blazing Mantis Palm Arts: First Stance - Scorching Mantis Strike!"

  Feeling the coming threat, Fu Ling felt surprised. She swiftly drew another 'Shuǐ' character towards Feng Yu.

  "Shuǐ Charm: Second Seal Barrier of Water!" An azure ball of water instantly appeared covering Fu Ling's body just as the palm strike was about to hit.

  BOOOMMM!

  As Feng Yu's Palm strike contacted the barrier of water, it sent waves upon waves of essence energy throughout the surroundings. As the attack forced itself deeper and deeper into the water barrier, it slowly began to weaken as the heat essence that was gathered on his palm soon receded, filling the region with steamy mist due to the contact with the barrier of the water essence.

  Swish! Swish!

  As both, Feng Yu and Fu Ling retreated; their figures were no longer visible due to the excess steamy mist that covered the lake.

  Feng Yu, who saw the situation, felt praise for Fu Ling, "She's not only talented but intelligent. She managed to figure out the element I'm aligned towards because of my earlier eruption of bloodline prestige. As the saying goes, “everything has its counterpart”, and my flame essence is in no way a match for her overly concentrated water essence. These Charmist’s are a truly terrifying group path of practitioners indeed."

  Feng Yu began to observe the surroundings and carefully sent out his soul power to find any unusual fluctuations. Suddenly, he heard a voice that sounded like it came from the entire surroundings.

  "Daoist Feng, your movement technique surprised me a bit, but it's a pity you missed that chance. Now I've got you in my trap. Let's see how long you can last." Her voice soon faded away leaving faint echoes within the mist.

  "Darn! She managed to set up that prison while the barrier was protecting her. Could it be she's already reached the state of mind 'Doing two things at once'? Damnit! To think I've still been under evaluating her skills." Feng Yu, realizing his mistake, was shocked. He revolved his once more traveling towards one direction.

  Soon, a barrier of water came into view at the edges of the lake surrounded by mist. Seeing the water barrier, Feng Yu sent his palm out in an attempt to break through it.

  "Blazing Mantis Palm Arts: Third Stance - Blazing Palm Wave!" A rush of flame essence energy shot forth from his palm and collided with the barrier.

  KABOOOMM!

  The flame essence energy and the water essence energy from the barrier soon erupted with an explosion scattering the steamy mist within the area.

  After a few moments, the scene was once again in clear view. A sizeable azure dome surrounded the entirety of the lake with Feng Yu inside, as Fu Ling stood outside on top of a water pillar above the dome. Seeing that the water barrier was still in perfect condition, Feng Yu complained inwardly, "Damn! Her essence energy is far above mine. It's not possible to break this even if I were in the same Tier unless I use other means of strength. Must I use my Bloodline Prestige? If only I had the chance to learn the sword arts."

  Fu Ling smiled while looking at Feng Yu, "Daoist Feng, trying to destroy my barrier without the power of your bloodline is meaningless. Now then, let's see what you're going to do about my next move?" She pointed her finger towards Feng Yu and drew another Shuǐ character in the void.

  "Shuǐ Charm: Third Seal of Water Dragons!" As she shouted, all of the water within the lake beneath Feng Yu turned into multiple water dragons, each being a height of 15 meters with the thickness of a large water barrel. The dragons gave off an aura similar to that of the practitioners at the 7th Tier of Body Training realm.

  ROARR! ROARR! ROARR! ROARR!

  As they raised their heads high, they let out roars throughout the region that scared away any nearby essence beasts that were still out in the field.

  Noticing Fu Ling’s control of the situation, Aunty Shuan felt pleased, "Good! Ling'er has managed to maintain both skills perfectly, and it won't be long before she reaches the stage of myriad thoughts."

  The girls observing the situation were excited at the showdown and soon began to let out supportive cheers towards Fu Ling.

  "Great! Sister Ling, quickly crush this brat!"

  "Go! Go! Go! Sister L
ing!"

  Not paying attention to them, Feng Yu focused his gaze on the water dragons. Sensing their water essence-energies, his gaze became solemn. He lifted his head and stared at Fu Ling's eyes while saying, "Very well then! Miss Fu, if it's my bloodline you want to face off against, then it is my bloodline you will get!"

  Shortly following, a dense amount of essence-energies began to collect towards Feng Yu. Once again, the cheering girls quickly became quiet as they observed Feng Yu in interest.

  Scorch!

  A dense collection of flames soon shot towards the skies, creating a pillar of scarlet golden flames that surrounded Feng Yu's form. The Phoenix birthmark on his left shoulder began to shine as strange markings began to cover his body. Soon, his hair became golden red, and his pupils turned golden.

  PUFF! The dome of water soon disappeared forcing Fu Ling who was residing on the top of it to retreat. Quickly motioning her fingers, one of the more massive water dragons soon came below her, placing her on top of its head.

  As she looked at Feng Yu's bloodline state, she began to feel excited. She smiled and said to Feng Yu, "Excellent! I didn’t know what kind of bloodline you were, but I'm expecting a much better challenge from you now Daoist Feng." She waved her hands, and a few of the water dragons began to fuse transforming into multi-headed dragons, each of which gave off an essence energy of 8 Tier Body Training realm.

  Seeing her excited expression and noticing the surrounding 7 Tier and 8 Tier water dragons, Feng Yu calmed his emotions and smiled as he spoke, "Well then, let's get started..."

  Bloodline's Prestige Vs Dual Seal Charms

  The azure sky appeared more attractive than ever, and the aroma of the flowers and plants seemed to be cuter. Vaguely though, the color of the sky was beginning to transition into a warmer hue. The time of dusk approached once again, bringing with it a close to the bright daytime.
