Chapter 1497 - Pulse Trees (1) (1/2)
It wasn't until weeks later that Dyon felt he could finally collapse and catch his breath. By now, the second phase was only days away, yet he had wasted so much time fighting these damned apes. However, if Dyon's plans were taken into account, it couldn't be said that this wasn't a useful use of his time. With how many benefits he had already gained from this Mystical World, it was worth it.
After a few hours of recuperating – something he was getting into the habit of doing naturally instead of relying on healing pills – he meticulously collected the few dozen beast corpses as he had done for the demon tigers.
First, he separated out the blood into vats by their purity. Then he carefully dissected them of their skin and set aside their meat for consumption. Finally, he stored their bone and its marrow for future use.
Once he was satisfied, Dyon began searching around for treasures this tribe would have been hiding. He gained big from the Blue Flame Demon Tiger pride, so he hoped that his Diamond Skinned Ape tribe wouldn't disappoint him.
”Big brother, did we just do all of this for their treasures?” Biibi asked. The view of a three-year-old girl raising her eyebrows in a very a.d.u.l.t-like manner was so adorable that Dyon couldn't help but pick her up and pinch her cheeks.
Truth be told, this made perfect sense. The treasures protected by prides and tribes of transcendent grade beasts were bound to be excellent. However, Biibi somehow felt that this wasn't Dyon's true purpose.
”The blood of the demon tigers and diamond apes will be very useful to Sen and Shere. Their combat abilities would definitely take a step up with them.” Dyon explained.
It had to be said that the Celestial Beasts were the ancestors of almost all related species that fell under their purview. This made sense considering they were among the most ancient of beasts.
Simply put, at some point in time, demon tigers branched from a diluted celestial tiger bloodline, while diamond apes branched from a diluted celestial ape bloodline. Essentially, all of their abilities are hidden somewhere within the potential of Sen and Shere.
If the bloodlines of his beast companions were at their peak, there would hardly be a point to doing this. A supreme grade beast ingesting the blood of a transcendent grade one would be next to useless. However, this wasn't the case right now.
With his beast companions only having access to a small segment of their bloodline abilities, supplementing them with bloodlines at or near their current purity would only help them. If Dyon gave them enough of these bloodlines, their celestial bloodline could evolve into something entirely new, maybe even surpassing the past.
The only problem with Dyon's plans was how difficult it was to find such bloodlines, especially for Linlin and Biibi. While cat and ape-like creatures weren't rare, the opposite was true of deer and turtle-like creatures.
For deer, Dyon could only think of qilins. Their bloodlines are very similar which was why the birth of Zaire from a demon qilin and a celestial deer resulted in such a powerful evolution of his little brother's bloodlines.
