Chapter 592 - Reaching Early-Success Stage
Inside the blood pool, the scorching hot blood began swirling around like a whirlpool with Leon at its center.
'According to the Everlasting Blood Mantra, each beast have their own unique source code hidden within their blood essence that makes their blood differ from other beast blood. Bloodline inheritance also stems from this so-called source code referred to as Origin Blood.'
As Leon mused silently in the blood pool, the blood essence churned and gathered to the tips of his fingers in a spherical motion, forming a round drop of blood that gradually reduces in size over time.
'Luckily, I don't need to understand nor learn how to read the source code of each beast blood essence I refine. By following the Everlasting Blood Mantra's unique blood refinement, the Origin Blood will reveal itself—or so it says.'
Leon glanced at the drop of sparkling blood essence, exuding a heavily concentrated amount of lifeforce within.
At the same time, the Wrathful Demonic Energies contaminating the accumulated blood essence were quickly filtered with Divine Will and converted by Nihility Law.
'By fusing each Origin Blood with my own blood, I can gain the unique qualities of the said beast blood and break away from human limitations. The more Origin Blood fused, the higher the quality of my blood becomes…'
Shortly after, Leon sliced his own wrist open before inserting the refined drop of Origin Blood belonging to the Wingrats into his bloodstream.
Following the next step, True Grandmist Energy quickly rushed over to assist the fusion of the Wingrat's Origin Blood with his blood source.
Within moments, the spherical drop of Origin Blood quickly dissipated, becoming one with his blood, under the guidance and transformation of True Grandmist Energy.
Leon immediately noticed the changes to his blood, feeling the increasing density, lifespan, and slight power. Even his leaping strength seemed to have increased ever slightly.
Overall, there were improvements but not a significant amount.
"As I would expect, the Wingrat's Origin Blood is too inferior, granting me little improvements. Nevertheless, I have achieved initial success in the Everlasting Blood Mantra," Leon muttered after inspecting his body.
"Now that the Wingrat's Origin Blood has been fused with me, any additional Origin Blood from the Wingrats will grant zero improvements…"
That being said, additional Origin Blood will transform into raw energy that replenishes stamina.
Shortly after, Leon's eyes shifted back on the blood pool with almost no changes and eyed the other beast blood mixed within.
"One type of Origin Blood fused is preliminary success while ten types of Origin Blood fused will be achieving early success stage in the technique…"
Leon's eyes flickered before muttering, "I should not waste this opportunity to absorb all the different types of existing beast blood in this blood pool."
Getting started in the Everlasting Blood Mantra was easy, but mastering it was another story entirely.
If he wanted to master the Everlasting Blood Mantra's first stage, he would need the Origin Blood of 10 thousand different species!
"Haiz, I don't even want to think about the requirements for the latter stages of this technique…" Leon shook his head helplessly before focusing on refining the remaining Origin Blood.
Time slowly flew by.
Aria watched Leon diligently cultivate inside the blood pool as it quickly reduced in blood over time.
Swoosh~!
Soft Feather flapped her wings in boredom, throwing a slight tantrum, "How long are we planning to wait here? I'm so bored~!"
"It's only been ten minutes. Can't you have a little bit of patience? You don't need to stay here and keep guard if you are that bored. I, alone, am enough here," Aria stated calmly.
Shortly after, she suggested, "Why don't you go and scavenge the Skysilver Tribe's ruins for something useful or fun to play with?"
"Hmm, not a bad idea. I will do just that. Thank you for the suggestion." Soft Feather quickly took off to take a look around without further notice.
Duna was carried away on Soft Feather's back, but she was
Aria shifted her gaze on Lilith before she said, "You can go look around too if you want. This area should be relatively safe for now. I don't think there will be any more beasts lurking around for now—but even if there are, I will be able to deal with it."
"Hmm…" Lilith's eyes lingered on Leon's figure inside of the blood pool below for a long before she nodded, "Alright. I will go take a long around too."
Shortly after Lilith left, Aria glanced at Leon for a moment before she began to contemplate the next course of her training.
'It's a pity that there aren't any ice-lightning regions that I am aware of that can assist me with my cultivation…' Aria pondered with knitted brows.
If she did not want to fall behind on cultivation, she would need to look for freezing and lightning regions to meditate on the Ice Law and Lightning Law separately.
'My Lightning Law recently made a large advancement… if I don't want my cultivation to become unstable, I will need to advance my Ice Law's understanding next to balance the Laws…' Aria mused before wondering where she could find such a place.
Suddenly, Aria glance back in the direction that Soft Feather had left before she wore a thoughtful expression, 'The Blue Luan Tribe should be situated in a cold region… but I can only inquire after Soft Feather returns…'
Sometime later, Leon completely fusing his tenth Origin Blood before his eyes snapped open, feeling invigorated and refreshed.
"Seems like reaching the Early-success stage has increased my lifespan by a hundred years…" Leon muttered while clenching his fist and feeling the power coursing through his veins.
Shortly after, he sliced his wrist again before his eyes narrowed on his wound, watching it regenerate itself without the aid of medicine or energy with curative properties.
"Looks like my body can recover from fleshly wounds on its own now. That's good." Leon beamed at his progress before hopping out of the half-depleted blood pool.
"Ahh!" Aria exclaimed with a blush while covering her eyes with one hand and offering Leon's upper clothes with the other, "Here! Quickly wear something!"
"Hm?"
Leon felt a little tingly in his lower region before realizing his pants had been lost to the corrosive blood pool.
Nevertheless, a man should show confidence in this regard and not embarrassment.
"What's wrong, Aria? It's not like it's the first time you've seen it…" Leon grinned.
