Chapter 1093: Granting Blood Essence (1/2)

In the Domain of Forbidden Heaven.

Nie Tian’s Star Boat flew through the spaces between huge floating meteors.

With her irregularly-shaped crystal in her palm, Pei Qiqi scanned her surroundings for any unusual spatial fluctuations.

If there were any hidden teleportation portals in their surroundings, that spatial treasure of hers would be able to detect them.

The Domain of Forbidden Heaven covered a vast area. It bordered the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries on one side and the Domain of the Falling Stars on the other.

The speed of the Star Boat couldn’t match that of an ancient starship. However, that gave Pei Qiqi an opportunity to scan her surroundings more thoroughly.

Sitting on the Star Boat, Nie Tian didn’t practice cultivation.

However, the three unique treasures in his spiritual sea took it upon themselves to channel flame power, wood power, and star power from the starry river.

As wisp after wisp of power fused into his spiritual cores of three different attributes, the solid parts of those spiritual cores gradually expanded.

Nie Tian suddenly came to a realization. “It seems that the starry river has become the most ideal place for me to practice cultivation!”

As long as he had the flame spark, the Nine Stars Flower, and the Godspirit Tree inside of him, he would be able to channel power from the starry river and practice cultivation without relying on spiritual materials of different attributes.

Now, he was at the early Soul realm. His spiritual cores had only partially solidified. His future cultivation would focus on the condensation and crystallization of the remaining liquid part.

To complete this process, Qi warriors without the flame spark, Godspirit Tree, and Nine Stars Flower would have to rely on all sorts of spiritual materials.

Furthermore, normally, Qi warriors at the Soul realm couldn’t safely expose themselves in the starry river, much less absorb power from it.

Obviously, he was a unique existence.

Not only did his unique bloodline and exceptionally tough body allow him to withstand the deadly impurities in the starry river, but the three wondrous treasures inside of him even allowed him to channel and refine flame power, wood power, and star power from the starry river.

He suddenly realized that this trip, where he was searching for hidden outsider teleportation portals in the Domain of Forbidden Heaven with Pei Qiqi, could be considered another way of cultivation.

Since he didn’t have to do anything, and his spiritual sea was already gaining the kinds of power it needed, he was free to work on something else.

He decided that he would nourish the Flame Dragon Armor and Star Behemoth bone with his Blood Essence, and then regenerate Blood Essence by relying on his stock of flesh power, which was still abundant.

Both of them had yearned for his Blood Essence, since it had been proven to have the effect of making them stronger and sharper.

Drop after drop of his Blood Essence fused into the Star Behemoth bone and the Flame Dragon Armor.

He hadn’t stored the bone in his ring of holding since he had left the Realm of Shattered Earth.

Like him, it had also been exposed to and was gathering power from the boundless starry river.

Originally, it had only been about twenty meters long, but as Nie Tian’s Blood Essence continued to fuse into it and it continued to channel power from the starry river, it gradually grew to nearly thirty meters long.

As another drop of Blood Essence dripped on the bone and instantly fused into the complicated veins within it, the bone started to emanate a faint blood-colored light.

Nie Tian’s expedition to the three Demon realms had won him a large number of Demon corpses. Later, he had gone to assist Hou Chulan in the Realm of Wood Spirit. From her, he had gained outsider and Ancientbeast corpses at the grand patriarch level.

Even though he had already completed Flesh Tempering, it didn’t seem that he could start Blood Condensing, the last stage of Heavenly Wood Heal, yet.

Meanwhile, after devouring flesh power to its fill, his bloodline aura had also fallen dormant, preparing for its next upgrade.

That was the reason why he could generate a large amount of Blood Essence now.

Pei Qiqi’s eyes lit up as she said with narrowed eyes, “Your Blood Essence… I don’t know why, but I have a strange feeling that your Blood Essence must be very sweet and tasty.”

With these words, she gently licked her rich lips, giving her a shockingly inviting look.

In fact, she had already held herself back for quite a while, watching Nie Tian generate and fuse Blood Essence into the Flame Dragon Armor and the Star Behemoth bone.

Every time she saw a drop of Blood Essence fall on the Flame Dragon Armor’s Blood Core, she felt a strong desire for it.

However, her reserved nature made it very difficult for her to voice her desire. After all, it was Nie Tian’s Blood Essence that she yearned for.

However, seeing Nie Tian spend his red, diamond-like Blood Essence so lavishly on the Flame Dragon Armor and the bone, she finally couldn’t help but give voice to her thoughts.

Nie Tian was confused. “You… You have a feeling that my Blood Essence is tasty?”

Pei Qiqi instantly flushed and looked down. “Umm... yeah, a bit.”

Nie Tian fell silent.

“Don’t, don’t take it the wrong way,” Pei Qiqi hastily explained. “I just find that your Blood Essence smells nice. That’s all...”

“Wait,” Nie Tian said. “Perhaps my Blood Essence can help you too.”
