Draconic Vampire : Curse of the Blood

Chapter 45: Secrets

Looking at the sphere in front of him, he guessed that it was the aura domain his uncle was talking about. He just manipulated his blood-qi inside this small aura domain to change the shape of his blood-qi.

“That is the easy part,” Brad said after a moment of silence.

“What?” Keith was snapped out of his own thoughts.

“Creating an aura domain outside your body is the primary step. Separating blood-qi from your body, then manipulating it inside the aura domain to change the shape and properties of it, is the next step.”

“So, this is how it works. I have to practice a lot in order to create aura domains outside my body. ” Keith mumbled.

“Even people with talent in this discipline take years before they can create aura domains. Outward blood-qi projection is not something you can do on a whim. You have to train your own aura, slowly separate it from your body.

Do it one step at a time. After you can project the blood-qi several meters from your body, then you can focus on isolating the blood-qi and sustain that blood-qi there. That will be your very first aura domain.” Brad explained.

All of this was too much for Keith, but he roughly understood the principle behind this.

“I will practice as you mentioned. I don’t know how long it will take though? How long did it take when you first learned it?” Keith asked.

“Several years. It took me decades to perfect the technique after creating my first aura domain.”Brad said.

“Where did you learn it?”

“That is not something I can answer, but it was a coincidence. You should keep the technique to yourself, and never mention learning it from someone else. It would be even better if you join the blood esper discipline at the Crimson Academy.

By the way, when are you going to enter? You already received the invitation.” Brad asked.

“After a couple of months. I will try to accumulate more strength and perfect my techniques before entering the academy.”

As the next leader of the Ennes family, Keith was invited to join the Crimson academy within a year. Only there he could learn advanced blood-qi techniques from top vampires, who were at the pinnacle of blood-qi manipulation.

He just started practicing blood condensation, so in terms of experience, he was way behind other descendants. His only advantage was abundant blood-qi, which could sustain his warrior frame. This was all thanks to the system, or the entity, whatever it was.

With the help of the system, he could absorb blood-qi from other vampires, which greatly improved his strength. If it wasn’t for the purple tendrils, he couldn’t have reached this stage.

After learning that there are even more things that determine the strength of a vampire, he was interested in learning them to increase his combat power. The four disciplines allowed the vampires to manipulate blood-qi in many different ways, resulting in a vast increase in strength.

The ones who grasped the true path were at the pinnacle of power in the continent. They could do miracles that no other vampire could imagine. But they rarely showed themselves in public. Their whereabouts were also hidden.

Only the vampires that were assigned a position on the council were known, but only to a few. The vampires at the pinnacle of each discipline always secluded themselves and practiced their techniques, having no interest in worldly affairs.

They stayed away from the council and only consulted the council when needed. They always immerse themselves in creating new techniques and perfecting them.

Keith was determined to see the end of this path as it would give him the answers he was looking for. There was a whole world out there, full of mystery and danger. But it contained the path to unravel this world.

“Hey! Are you listening?” Brad deactivated his aura field and the sphere disappeared. A sudden ear-splitting sound woke Keith from his inner thoughts.

“Yeah, It was a great explanation. I will try to grasp it and try to apply it as much as I can.” Keith said.
