Death… And Me

Chapter 3078 They Were Never Told

Chapter 3078  They Were Never Told

Rean quickly sent his Light Element into Uruavis' body. Unfortunately, the Instant Recovery Skill that Rean was so proud of didn't seem to work on Uruavis. "That's unexpected."

A big part of the Instant Recovery Skill was due to Rean's understanding of bodies and souls. Uruavis, however, was truly a completely different type of living being. That wasn't all, of course. After checking Uruavis's Body and Soul, he understood a lot. Most of the Decay was due to the lost connection between Uruavis' soul with the Charybdis Mother after detaching himself. It wasn't something his Light Element could fix. Sure, Rean's Light Element was also very good at healing souls, but Uruavis' Soul wasn't damaged. That was simply a side effect of the separation. There wasn't anything for Rean's Light Element to heal. "Uruavis, is there I way I can help you recover?"

Uruavis didn't seem willing to have Rean waste time on him. "There is no need. If you manage to get Mother free, that will be enough. Perhaps she can help me recover if she is conscious."

"Okay," Rean nodded. "I do have a slight idea of what I could do to get her free, but I can't give any guarantees. Anyway, before I can try anything, I need you to answer a question. Outside the Charybdis Mother's body, there are a few Demon Beasts who seem to carry the Charybdis Bloodline, although just a little bit. How did they get access to it?"

Uruavis checked into his memories for a moment. "That wasn't so hard, to be honest. Mother just had to let some of her Essence Blood out, and someone eventually found it outside."

"Why would she do that?" Rean and Yuan asked at the same time.

"I might be wrong, but perhaps she was trying to acquire help from the outside," Uruavis commented. "She even provided the method to absorb the bloodline."

Rean's heart skipped a beat. "That's it! Tell me, how does one absorb her Bloodline to make it their own?"

Uruavis got suspicious. "Are you planning to rob Mother's Bloodline in this place?"

Rean shook his head, though. "Didn't you hear what I said? That Spiritual Prison was probably made with the Charybdis Mother's Bloodline against her will. The prison itself has her Essence Blood. If we can absorb it, then the Prison should lose its confinement properties. I won't lie, though. This is just a theory. We will have to put it to the test."

"This..." Uruavis didn't know anything about the Spiritual Prison. However, even if the chances were near zero, he had to at least give it a try. Besides, at least until this moment, Rean and Yuan didn't give him a reason to doubt them. "Alright, here's how you absorb Mother's Bloodline and make it your own."

Uruavis transmitted the whole process through Spiritual Sense into Rean's mind. After checking it, Rean finally nodded. "Alright, I understand the method. Yuan, it is up to you now."

"Wait! What?!" Yuan quickly took several steps back. "Are you crazy?! That Prison is sealing the Charybdis Queen's Soul! If I try to absorb the bloodline in it, won't my soul be sealed as well? That's too risky!"

Rean didn't deny that. "Yes, there is a high risk of that happening. However, the rewards are equally high. Can you imagine just how much Blood Essence had to be used to create a Spiritual Prison capable of locking the Charybdis Queen's Soul? Drefin and Tana's Charybdis Bloodlines aren't even worth mentioning."

"I..." Yuan didn't know whether it was truly worth the risk. However, he quickly remembered Tana and how he would never be accepted on her side the way he was now. Just winning this competition wasn't enough. He needed a surefire method. "Al... Alright. Give me the steps."

"Not so fast," Rean stopped him. "I'm first revising this absorption method to better suit your body. Stay still for a while as I send my Spiritual Sense into your body. Do not fight it."

Well, although Rean was also helping, the one who would truly look into the Bloodline Absorption Method was Roan. Through their connection, Roan saw and felt everything Rean did with his Spiritual Sense.

Roan shook his head in the end, though. 'His bloodline is just too ridiculously weak. Actually, even if Drefin himself was here and tried to absorb that Bloodline, his body would explode, let alone Yuan.'

Rean agreed with Roan. 'I noticed that. But can you modify this method so he can absorb the Bloodline in the Prison?'

Roan pondered about it for a moment. 'I can make a few alterations that will allow Yuan to absorb the Bloodline in the Prison very slowly. Nonetheless, it would still be too much for his weak body to resist.'

Rean understood where Roan was coming from. 'We need him to have a stronger body, is it? How about the Blood Reformation Pill? That alone will clean his Horned Cloud Shark Bloodline. Should make it a lot easier to receive the Charybdis Bloodline Essence.'

'Yes, go ahead,' Roan gave Rean the green flag. 'I'll work on this Bloodline Absorption Method while he goes through the process.'

Rean's attention then turned to Yuan. He flipped his hand, and a White, Black, and Reddish Pill appeared on his hand. "Yuan, swallow this. Also, be prepared. You will suffer a lot of pain after you do so."

"Uh? Why would I do that?" Yuan asked back.

"Do you want to explode when you start absorbing the Bloodline in the Prison?" Rean answered with another question.

Yuan felt a chill run through his body and reluctantly took the pill. "Shit! Here goes nothing!" He had come this far with Rean, and Rean definitely had the strength to kill him at any time. There was no point doubting Rean now.

*Argh!*

Immediately, Yuan fell to the ground and started to contort in pain. The pill was especially hurtful to Demon Beasts with weak bloodlines. Rean sat by his side and used his Spiritual Energy to hold him in place. "It hurts, but after the pill is done with its work, you will be a completely new Horned Cloud Shark. Hold onto that. It is all so you can get Tana."

Yuan gritted his teeth so hard that blood began to come out of it. Fortunately, Tana was a reason strong enough for Yuan to fight against the pain.

As Rean looked at Yuan, he also remembered something else. 'Now that I think about it, the system never told us what would be the rewards for helping the Charybdis Mother...'
