Chapter 628: Hanging by A Thread

A total of five seventh grade outsider experts had led the invasion of the Realm of a Hundred Battles.

They were one middle seventh grade Phantasm, and an early seventh grade Demon, Fiend, Blackscale, and Stoneman.

Because every inch of the Fiend expert contained deadly toxins, and even in his last moments, he had released deadly toxic smoke, Hua Mu and the other human experts had decided to burn his corpse to ashes.

The four remaining seventh grade outsider corpses had now become the Bone Blood Demon’s target.

Sitting in silence, Nie Tian watched the Bone Blood Demon activate the Blood Refining Incantation to drain the seventh grade Demon’s corpse of its blood first.

When the seventh grade Demon had unleashed Ancestral Awakening, his size had multiplied, and the flesh power within him had also become as unfathomable as the sea.

Compared to the fourth and fifth grade outsiders, it took the Bone Blood Demon a much longer time to drain the seventh grade Demon’s corpse of its blood.

As the Demon’s corpse gradually lost its blood, it started to shrivel.

After a long time, the seventh grade outsider’s corpse was finally completely bereft of blood.

However, the Bone Blood Demon didn’t hurry on to its next target. Instead, it stood in silence. Like two ghostly lanterns, its grayish-green eyes lit up the whole room, giving it a gruesome look.

Nie Tian sensed it with rapt attention and discovered that the blood flow within its bones was becoming more and more vigorous.

Meanwhile, as its blood flowed abnormally vigorously within its bones, its bones started to lose their original pale-gray color.

Nie Tian then knew that the reason why it hadn’t moved on to its next target right away was because it was taking the seventh grade Demon’s blood in with its unique method.

After all, the blood was from a seventh grade Demon. The flesh power within his blood was far richer than that of fourth and fifth grade Demons.

It was the Bone Blood Demon’s skull that was the first to grow translucent, and start to have a jade-like gloss.

After its skull was its neck.

It seemed that the Bone Blood Demon was using the seventh grade Demon’s blood to refine its body.

However, the change was rather slow. It seemed that it would take some time for the Bone Blood Demon to finish the refinement of its body.

Nie Tian observed it for a while, and assumed that the Bone Blood Demon would probably move on to the next seventh grade outsider after it exhausted the power from the seventh grade Demon’s blood.

“It appears that you no longer need the corpse after draining its blood,” Nie Tian muttered.

He walked to the shriveled seventh grade Demon’s corpse and pressed his hands on its forehead and heart.

“Life Drain!” With a thought, he sent wisps of his own flesh aura into the seventh grade Demon’s corpse.

Like snakes, the wisps of flesh aura slithered to every corner of the outsider’s corpse, digging flesh power from its flesh, internal organs, and bones.

As they collected flesh power, the wisps of flesh aura that were originally the size of hairs rapidly expanded.

Nie Tian then realized that there was still an incredible amount of flesh power in the Demon’s corpse.

It was just that that flesh power was deeply rooted in the Demon’s body. The Bone Blood Demon couldn’t absorb it with the Blood Sect’s Blood Refining Incantation.

Only his Life Drain bloodline talent would allow him to extract it in the most subtle way.

Nie Tian contemplated while using Life Drain, his eyes glittering brightly in the dim room. “This Demon must have refined and strengthened his body a thousand times over with their race’s secret method, which is probably similar to Heavenly Wood Heal.”

He had learned that when he refined his body with Heavenly Wood Heal, there were five steps: Bone Crystallizing, Internal Organ Nourishing, Meridian Toughening, Flesh Tempering, and Blood Condensing.

It would require a large amount of flesh power and wood power to work in a profound way to finish each step.

Now, he had just moved to the second step.

The seventh grade Demon before him must have also refined his body with similar methods.

His copious flesh power had sunk deep into his flesh, meridians, internal organs, and bones, becoming one with his body. Because of this, his meridians and bones were ideal materials for equipment forging and pill making.
