Chapter 493: Cellular Rebirth
It looked so different at first, as it had wings, horns, scales, and fur all over his body. In fact, it looked more like a monster than a human being.
No matter who would look at him at the moment would think the same. Even without looking at those sharp teeth that weren't visible at the moment.
As the storm was calming down so were the features on his body though, as the bony wings, horns, the fur, the scales, his unseen teeth were all pulled up.
When finally, the storm finished in the middle of it wasn't a monster anymore, but a charming, and handsome young man with red hair, blue eyes, and an amazing body.
He looked like one of those devilish handsome men that every lady would fall in love with at first sight, and would do anything they could to have a bite of him.
If a few moments ago the two ladies had been stupefied due to their fear, and shock from what happened, right now they were shocked due to how handsome the guy in front of them was.
They felt like even if he tried to rape them right here, and right now they wouldn't resist, as a matter of fact, they would try to do everything they could for that to happen.
And that was just looking at his bare back, as they had yet to see his front and the slumbering dragon between his thighs.
On the other hand, Tianlong Yun had just finally regained conscience and total control of his body and was checking if there was something wrong with him.
His body had changed a lot, but the problem would be if it hadn't, as right now his bloodline wasn't that old one anymore.
Right now, he had a new bloodline as he added the Vampiric and Werewolves bloodlines to his, and he could feel that he had changed greatly.
He felt like his skin was sturdier than before like another wall was added to his defense, no cultivator below three levels above him could scratch his body now.
And if he transformed to his real form, then he could confidently say that it would have to be at least 5 levels difference for him to be injured.
That was only the beginning though, as, besides the fact that his body had grown so sturdy, his regeneration ability was otherworldly.
How could he tell that!? Really easy because the body he had right now was generated by a few cells only!
Even before the last lightning bolt of Heaven's rage hit him, Tianlong Yun knew that it was a stupid and impossible thing to protect his whole body.
For that reason, when the lightning bold finally came upon him, he gave up on his body and decided to use everything he had, every single bit of his power, in order to protect only a few cells and his treasures.
He had attracted in one place, a cell for each organ in his body, and had decided to protect them instead of his whole body.
This was a big risky chance for him as if his regeneration didn't work properly then he would certainly have lost this body, but his body would be lost anyway.
When he felt that last lightning bolt strike him, he felt like he had just taken the wisest decision of his life.
While he might have resisted a second more if he was to use all his strength, at the end of the day he would have still been disintegrated, this way at least he had a chance.
But now his body depended on that small cluster of cells that he had put in one place and decided to protect.
Still, there was nothing he could do but to try his best to follow the path opened by the last lightning bolt of Heaven's Rage, and hide underground.
His life depended on it. It didn't need one to be extremely intelligent to understand that whatever happened had attracted too much attention, and soon swarms of people would appear there.
So, the first thing he needed to take care of was his safety during his cellular rebirth! His path was rather easy, as he was following the harbinger of extinction itself.
The last lightning bolt of Heaven's Rage was able to disintegrate everything it passed through forming a vacuum behind it, so he just needed a small push to follow behind.
He didn't really know how long he went on, but in the end, the lightning bolt disappeared, and he entered the still electrified ground.
It was his good luck to not have spent a lot of energy on the way, as he was able to protect himself from that electrification.
But this didn't mean things were over, as this was the part where the real difficult part of his plan started, which was reconstructing the body from those few cells.
The ones responsible for his rebirth would certainly be his bloodline cells, as with the Vampire bloodline addition, and his Nirvana Flames he was hoping for miracles.
A miracle truly started to happen, as those cells truly started to divide and develop, trying to recreate his body, as the Nirvana flames helped him too.
The only problem was that the speed at which happened was really slow, they had been able to double their numbers only in one day.
Even though this was a miracle, and a crazy rate of growing up, Tianlong Yun was still dissatisfied with it.
If things kept up at this rate, he would surely have his body back in some time, in 6 months as per his calculations, but he felt that he didn't have that much time.
Even before this whole thing against the mother tree started, he already had a bad premonition about his wives that were in this place.
For that reason, he couldn't afford to stay for long here, lest that something dangerous or bad happened to them.
He was all the time thinking about ways to speed up his regeneration rate, and he already had a way, it was just that it was not really applicable.
Vampiric blood regeneration depended on the bloodline strength, and its collected potential and vitality.
In other words, if he consumed the blood and vitality of human beings, his rate of regeneration was certainly going to rise by a lot.
With that thought in mind, he immediately started sucking dry of their blood all the captives he had in his lab.
These guys were good research subjects, but he could get more later, right now he needed to use them.
With their blood and vitality, Tianlong Yun's regeneration rate truly increased, as it almost doubled overnight, but even the number of the people he had sucked dry wasn't small either.
He had sucked dry of their blood and vitality more than 200 hundred of these guys in one night, and his reserves were really falling down.
These were all part of those rebels so he didn't feel guilty about it, in fact, he felt that they should be thankful they had an easy death, as he was already planning to torture them quite a bit.
But even the new rate was really slow for him, as he would have to wait for 3 more months, which wasn't truly acceptable.
So, he decided to continue with his 'dry' plan, and immediately sucked dry of their blood and vitality the remaining lab rats, or experimental subjects.
His regenerative ability rate increased by 0.5 this time, as he calculated that in around 2 months or so he would brand as new.
It was still too long for him, but there was nothing he could do. The only people left inside the Old Pouch were his loyal retainers and loyal disciples.
Even though Tianlong Yun needed to increase his regeneration rate at all costs, this was a cost he didn't want to pay.
These people had shown their loyalty to him, and had fought beside him when he was at his lowest, he couldn't kill them, and suck them dry just because he needed to.
Even though Tianlong Yun was an extremely selfish man, he was still able to recognize reciprocity. He always followed the same rule, you do good to me I pay you by ten times, you harm me I torture you by ten times.
So those guys were out of the question, even though his Vampiric blood instinct was trying to overcome his sanity, that would never happen.
It was his good luck that in less than a week though he could feel some presence above him, people had arrived at this place already.
At first, he was a bit worried that they might have found his whereabouts, but they didn't seem to be looking for him down there.
Furthermore, their spirit sense strength belonged to some small fries in the Golden Core Realm, which meant that it was impossible for them to be here for him.
At first, he thought to just let them go, as it was going to reveal his whereabouts if he did something to them.
But then hearing their conversations, and learning what was going on, he immediately threw that idea out of his mind, and immediately decided to do the opposite.
In but a few moments, the group of people above was sucked dry of their blood and vitality that was now added to Tianlong Yun.
But when the last one of them fell to the ground as nothing more than a sack of skin and bone, Tianlong Yun realized his mistake.
He had sucked them all dry, without leaving anyone behind, which made the situation a bit difficult, as he was worried if other people would come by, and would they approach the area with dead people's remains.
But then he had a bright idea once again, men die from greed, as birds die from food, after all
