- Chapter 178 1 (2/2)

There were two methods of cultivation for demons.

First, adopting the cultivation method of absorbing the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and moon and turn them into demon power.

Secondly, consuming blood. The blood of living creatures would increase the demon power.

It was why Ning Fan did not just kill those demons but also ate all three of them when he transformed into a giant.

The blood of the three demons was rotating inside his body, refining into three droplets of blood essence. The light greenish blood belonged to the white snake demon, the light yellowish blood belonged to the yellow marten while the light golden blood belonged to the Mid-Nascent Soul Realm demon with a lion’s mane.

The greenish blood and yellowish blood were threadlike in his veins as both of them belonged to demons which had their cultivation realms forcefully raised to Nascent Soul Realm through the use of secret arts. Though it might seem miniscule, a drop of blood was still able to enhance the power of his current demon blood by a hundred times.

For the golden blood, it was ten times of the two types of blood altogether!

Now, the Winged Demon Bloodline in his body was steadily assimilating the power of the three droplets of blood.

His demon power was gradually improving and to his surprise, the quality of the Winged Demon Blood within him was improving too.

It was considered a miracle even for the ancient demons to witness the improvement in quality of a thin demon bloodline!

Actually, the main reason behind it was the Yin Yang Locket.

It enabled Ning Fan to open up Divine Veins, Demon Veins, as well as Devil Veins in his human form while refining the quality of his blood veins. For him, it wasn’t too shocking.

The Yin Yang Locket gave its owner the ability to incorporate any power as his own. Therefore, there was absolutely no struggle to power up himself by consuming the blood of other demons.

Ning Fan’s demon power was only at Early Harmonious Spirit Realm, excluding the realm of his magic power.

If the three droplets of blood were all assimilated, his demon power would break through to the Late Harmonious Spirit Realm or even achieve the Peak of Harmonious Spirit Realm!

Aside from that piece of Immemorial Star in the storage pouch, there were a several spiritual pills and magical treasures. The magical treasures weren’t even worth noticing as they were all seized from other human cultivators. However, the spiritual pills were of high quality. There were some Spirit Refining Grass among them too.

He also found a jade bottle which was deliberately sealed.

A strand of demon power leaked from it. By just smelling it, the demon bloodline in Ning Fan’s body began to churn!

Judging from the smell of it, it was quite similar to the three droplets of blood in his body. However, the concentration of the demon power within the bottle was worlds apart from the three droplets of blood!

“Is it possible that it contains a droplet of blood essence of a powerful demon?!”

Ning Fan could tell that if he consumes the droplet of blood in the jade bottle, his demon power would undeniably advance into the Gold Core Realm or even higher!

However, he wouldn’t act rashly by just consuming it without thinking twice. Enhancing demon power through consuming the blood of others had a limit. He must never consume the blood of a creature that was way more powerful than himself.

To absorb the power of a Nascent Soul Realm demon’s blood essence is already risky, let alone the blood that is sealed within this jade bottle. It may inflict terrible damage on me if I forcefully take it in.

Ning Fan was unable to identify the quality and grade of the blood. As such, he was afraid that he might explode into pieces after consuming it…

“I guess I have no choice but to save it for later…”

After exploring the storage pouch, the thought of not participating in the final battle became even more firm in his mind.

When the shuttle landed within the city, multiple cultivators greeted and welcomed him cordially. In return, Ning Fan nodded his head towards them as a token of respect.

He followed Jie Xiu and Yun Ruowei towards the place to update battle points. An enormous jade tablet stood there. The cultivators that returned from their missions placed their Jade of Achievements on the glossy surface of the tablet and the amount of the battle points would be recorded.

A courteous elderly cultivator was looking after the jade tablet. He was the person who helped the cultivators to convert their battle points into immortal jades, pills, cultivation methods and magical treasures.

Ning Fan did not immediately go towards to the tablet used for recording battle points. A familiar figure who had been waiting for him in the crowd of cultivators caught his sight.

“Zhou Ming!”

“Oh. It’s Suqiu! Are you waiting for me?”

“Yes.”

The two of them were acting out the role of a couple. Therefore, it didn’t matter if the way they addressed each other was a little too intimate.

When Suqiu’s gaze shifted from Ning Fan and landed on Yun Ruowei, her heart began to feel nervous. However, she still moved her eyes away from her. As for Yun Ruowei who noticed Yin Suqiu, she could guess that Suqiu was Ning Fan’s partner.

This woman has great latent talent. If I wasn’t lucky in the past, I might be at the same cultivation realm as her. Besides, she is also a woman of great beauty. It’s really difficult to have such a female cultivator with great potential in this cruel cultivation world.
