The power of Demon Blood doesn't erupt just because one wishes it to; some people, despite possessing Demon Blood, are unable to use it due to insufficient talent.
Moreover, the most crucial aspect is that Demon Blood is easier to release than to control. The higher one's cultivation, the harder it is to control Demon Blood, potentially turning one into a monstrous killer.
Although the Demon Blood Martial Arts Arena does not prohibit the use of Demon Blood power, if someone loses their sanity while using it, no matter who they are, the arena has the authority to kill them.
In everyone's eyes, Zhi Qingge's use of Demon Blood power is akin to dancing on a blade's edge.
This woman is simply mad!
Just as the crowd was engrossed in discussion, Chu Nan collected five thousand yuan stones, his winnings from a recent bet, instantly drawing many envious and jealous gazes.
But soon, everyone's attention returned to the arena as the referee asked Zhi Qingge, "Zhi Qingge, would you like to rest or continue challenging?"
Everyone thought Zhi Qingge would choose to rest, as unleashing Demon Blood power significantly drains physical strength, making further combat unwise.
Contrarily, Zhi Qingge decisively said, "I want to continue challenging!"
Her words once again astonished everyone in the Demon Blood Martial Arts Arena; no one expected Zhi Qingge to opt for continued challenges rather than quitting while ahead.
The referee couldn't help but remind, "Your next opponent will at least be on par with Zhiqing. Are you sure?"
Zhi Qingge resolutely replied, "I'm sure!"
Seeing Zhi Qingge's determination, the referee sighed and quickly arranged the next duel.
As long as Zhi Qingge does not step down, she can keep challenging, per the arena's rules—she could theoretically fight here until her death!
Soon, the next opponent was decided: Feng Chen, a martial artist outside the Zhi family, at the Divine Illumination Realm's sixth peak, known for speed.
In the audience, everyone placed bets again.
Because Zhi Qingge defeated Zhiqing, the odds slightly lowered to one to three.
Although Zhi Qingge still held relatively high odds, most chose to bet on Feng Chen, while Chu Nan, as before, placed all his five thousand yuan stones on Zhi Qingge with a grand gesture!
This act caused quite a stir, as no one expected Chu Nan to be so confident, betting on Zhi Qingge twice in a row.
Soon, the battle on the arena began once more.
This time, Zhi Qingge directly unleashed Demon Blood power, surrounded by a red Blood Qi, causing everyone to gasp, questioning whether she feared losing her mind to Demon Blood and becoming a killer monster.
The attack from Zhi Qingge, fueled by Demon Blood power, was terrifyingly intense, with nearly every move lethal, leaving Feng Chen defeated step by step, almost powerless to resist.
But beneath the arena, Cloud Sea Realm martial artists were poised, ready to intervene and slay her if Zhi Qingge lost her sanity.
As Zhi Qingge's frenzied onslaught continued, despair appeared in Feng Chen's eyes; the desire to kill surges to boiling point after unleashing Demon Blood, silencing any thought of surrender.
Watching Zhi Qingge's offense grow ever fiercer, Feng Chen knew that continuing meant certain death, and in desolation, he attempted to surrender.
"I surrender!"
Feng Chen held little hope, already prepared to leave the arena gravely injured upon surrender.
Yet, just as the words left his mouth, the fierce Zhi Qingge halted and said, "If so, then I win."
With that, Zhi Qingge stood with her sword, the red glow around her slowly receding, showing no signs of bloodthirsty madness from Demon Blood influence.
The arena fell silent again, not due to Zhi Qingge's strength, but the unexpected control over her actions after using Demon Blood.
"Unbelievable, truly unbelievable!"
"Perhaps Zhi Qingge could control it because she has never used Demon Blood power before."
This hypothesis gained much acceptance, but everyone knew that with continuous use, Zhi Qingge would inevitably succumb to losing sanity.
To everyone's surprise once again, Zhi Qingge chose to challenge once more, this time against a martial artist at the initial stage of the Divine Illumination Realm's seventh level, making the arena erupt once more.
And Chu Nan, too, claimed his newly won fifteen thousand yuan stones, attracting a wave of envious glances.
Zhi Qingge's third duel was about to begin, and due to her two consecutive victories, the odds were now one to two!
Chu Nan placed his fifteen thousand yuan stone winnings back on Zhi Qingge, with some following his lead, though most bet on Zhi Qingge's opponent.
With some yuan stones, Zhi Qingge briefly restored her Spiritual Power before the third martial duel officially commenced.
Once again, Zhi Qingge engaged with Demon Blood power against the Divine Illumination Realm's seventh-level martial artist.
Using the power of Demon Blood, Zhi Qingge, with her Divine Illumination Realm's sixth-level cultivation, seemed to subtly suppress her opponent.
But Zhi Qingge's opponent wasn't anxious, knowing that having burned through Demon Blood twice, time would drive Zhi Qingge into insanity, resulting in her being executed by the arena's management.
By then, victory would be his.
His current task was to delay; patience would yield victory.
Thus, after one incense stick of time, Zhi Qingge continued fighting with Demon Blood power…
After two incense sticks, Zhi Qingge's aura remained undiminished.
After three incense sticks, Zhi Qingge restored her strength by consuming pills, yet her gaze remained clear…
Everyone was astounded; it had been three incense sticks, yet Zhi Qingge had not lost her sanity.
The previous record was merely two incense sticks before a martial artist went mad and was executed. Zhi Qingge endured for three!
The outcome of the battle became less significant; everyone wanted to see how long Zhi Qingge could endure.
Even the strong figures behind the Demon Blood Martial Arts Arena were drawn, observing everything discreetly.
However, contrary to expectations, the battle ended before the fourth incense stick.
Not because Zhi Qingge lost her sanity, but because her opponent finally couldn't hold on and decided to surrender.
Zhi Qingge, with a clear gaze, and her red glow fading, breathed softly with unspeakable fatigue on her face, yet everyone looked at her as if she were a monster.
Using Demon Blood, enduring nearly four incense sticks while remaining in control.
This kind of achievement had never been accomplished in the entire history of the Zhi family, leaving everyone curious and somewhat hopeful about Zhi Qingge.
"Zhi Qingge, do you wish to continue challenging!" Even the referee's tone carried some excitement.
Zhi Qingge paused, glanced at Chu Nan in the audience, and then said, "I want to continue challenging!"
Upon her declaration, the Demon Blood Martial Arts Arena erupted fully, as everyone was eager to see where Zhi Qingge's limits lay.
The ensuing battles were no longer merely about victory or defeat, but an issue that concerned many Zhi Family martial artists most.
The real question was where the Zhi family's Demon Blood explosion limits lay and whether this flaw could be entirely removed.
