Chapter 1236: Dark Ferocious Beasts
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Looking at the stones, Ou Yangming took a deep breath.
He had also learned about the use of the stones from the Ancient Devil Warrior’s soul fragments. These red stones were called Dripping Blood Stones, and they contained powerful energies.
If the energies were fused into one’s body, they would greatly increase the strength of the user’s body, and increase the user’s power and endurance.
If Ou Yangming had not used the Soul-sucking Art, he would not have believed that these small stones would have such miraculous effects.
From the Ancient Devil Warrior’s memories, Ou Yangming knew a lot of information.
For ordinary Devil Dwellers, as long as they fused with 10 Dripping Blood Stones, they would evolve into Ancient Devil Warriors, and their bodies would be upgraded in every aspect.
In the village, the Ancient Devil Warrior was the most powerful existence. The Ancient Devil Warrior who was killed by Du Jian was already at the late stage of a Venerable One, and it was also because of this that he could easily capture Ancient Shamans like Du Lingxuan.
The Ancient Devil Warrior originally planned to eat Du Lingxuan and the other child, but the day he chose had not arrived yet, so they could live.
These Dripping Blood Stones were also treasures that the Ancient Devil Warrior had treasured. He had spent a lot of effort to get them.
The Devil Dwellers were not scattered sand. They basically existed in the form of villages, but there were still cities above the villages.
After evolving into an Ancient Devil Warrior, one could go to a city to get a mace. This was how the 2 Ancient Devil Warriors that Ou Yangming from before got their weapons.
Each city was very far away, and it would take several years to go back and forth. Therefore, the villages were independent.
‘Should I give them a try?’
Ou Yangming looked at the 3 Dripping Blood Stones in the box and thought to himself. 3 years would soon pass, and he had to think of all ways to improve his strength.
Before this, Ou Yangming had never deliberately trained his body’s strength. If he started from this aspect, there might be unexpected effects.
Moreover, from the memories of the Ancient Devil Warrior, Ou Yangming knew that there were some powerful people in the Fallen Land. Their body’s strengths were shocking. They could even pluck stars.
If Ou Yangming could reach that level of strength, even if his power of laws had not broken through to the third step, he should be able to deal with powerhouses in the third step.
Just as Ou Yangming was thinking, Du Jian called out to him from afar.
Ou Yangming put the wooden box back into the Long Feather Band. Only then did he push open the door and walk out. Du Jian and the 3 young Ancient Shamans were already waiting outside.
After they ate the pills, they looked much better.
“Let’s leave this place first.”
In a dense forest, there were a few wooden houses hanging on a few thick trees. These were the residences of Du Lingxuan and the others.
Du Jian walked over and said in a deep voice, “Master Ou, I want to settle our tribe in this place.”
“Are you sure? This place is very dangerous.” Ou Yangming raised his head.
With a bitter smile, Du Jian said, “Lingxuan and the others have lived here for a period of time, so they have a good understanding of this place. I think this place is pretty good. Where in the world is there an absolutely safe place? I believe that with me around, I can protect the tribe.”
Yes, where in the world was there an absolutely safe place?
After 3 years, this world would be destroyed. Even Ou Yangming at this moment was only looking for that slim chance of survival.
“Alright, you’re the clan master of the Ancient Shamans. Since you’ve chosen this place, I won’t say anymore. “Ou Yangming released all the Ancient Shamans from the poisonous pill’s world.
The Ancient Shamans with a few thousand people appeared to be a lot, but they were extremely small in this forest. This world was massive. It could even be compared to the Zhenwu Continent. It was also a very good place.
Due to historical reasons, the Ancient Shamans were not welcomed in the Great Wide World.
In order to avoid unnecessary disputes, Ou Yangming could not allow them to appear in the Humans’ world. Regardless of whether it was the Ancient Shamans or the Ancient Demons, they were all enemies to the Humans.
Under the arrangements of Du Jian, the Ancient Shamans had taken root in this world. They cut down the trees and built their homes in this forest.
Ou Yangming did not join them. He found a quiet place by himself and took out the wooden box from the Long Feather Band.
He had made up his mind to try the Dripping Blood Stones. Since the Devil Dwellers and those Dark Ferocious Beasts could use them to increase their strengths, humans should be able to do the same.
Even if it did not work, there would not be any danger for Ou Yangming. With his strength, it would be easy for him to resolve small problems.
Ou Yangming was very clear about how to use the Dripping Blood Stones. The Soul-sucking Art had let him know everything he needed to know.
He looked left and right. After making sure that there was not any danger in the surroundings, he took out a dagger and gently cut his arm.
A thumb-sized wound appeared on his arm. He took out a Dripping Blood Stone and put it in.
The usage of the Dripping Blood Stone was simple and violent. As long as it was fused with the blood in a certain part of one’s body, it could enhance the ability of that part of one’s body.
“Hiss…”
After putting the Dripping Blood Stone into the wound on his arm, Ou Yangming took a long breath. He felt a piercing pain in his body.
Although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked. If it were any other human, they would probably faint immediately.
Natural selection allowed the fittest to survive. The universe was so cruel. Such a cold evolution law was especially shocking in this Fallen Land.
It was painful, but Ou Yangming was no longer a kid. His willpower was far stronger than most people.
Furthermore, with his strength of the second step of the laws, a little pain was nothing.
The heart-piercing pain lasted for an hour before it gradually dissipated. Ou Yangming’s expression did not change. He endured it without saying a word.
“My strength is really much greater now.” Ou Yangming’s eyes were filled with surprise. He could feel that the strength in his left arm had obviously increased by a lot.
Without using any spiritual power, Ou Yangming’s left arm was much stronger than his right. The process was a little painful, but the improvement brought about by the transformation was a pleasant surprise.
“I’ve only fused one and already gained such strength. If I were to fuse with 10 like the Ancient Devil Warriors, what kind of effect would there be?”
Those Ancient Devil Warriors did not cultivate at all. With just the Dripping Blood Stones, they could reach the peak of a Venerable One. If they had great spiritual powers as well, even an ordinary Ruler would not be their match.
The Devil Warriors did not seem to know how to cultivate spiritual power. However, Ou Yangming could. If he raised the strength of his body to the peak and combined it with the spiritual power in his body and the power of the second step of laws, he might be able to fight against third-step powerhouses.
Thinking of this, Ou Yangming became excited.
He took out another Dripping Blood Stone and planned to fuse it with his left arm again. Upgrading one part was far more effective than upgrading several parts at the same time. This was a method that he had learned from the Ancient Devil Warriors.
With his first experience, it was much more convenient this time. After gritting his teeth and enduring for a while, the Dripping Blood Stone melted into his blood again.
The increase in his strength was very obvious as if there was no end to it.
“Again!”
Ou Yangming exhaled and used the last Dripping Blood Stone.
Each time was more painful than the last, but Ou Yangming persevered tenaciously. The result was also very gratifying. The strength in his left hand had received a shocking increase, where ordinary swords probably could not even cut through his skin.
Not only that but the other parts of his body had also improved a little. The effects were not as good as his arm, but they were also very impressive.
“The Dripping Blood Stones are really good!”
After tasting the sweetness, Ou Yangming could not stop, but it was a pity that the stones were very rare.
‘Am I going to be a robber?’ Ou Yangming thought to himself.
The Dripping Blood Stone was a kind of magical stone in the Fallen Land. It was very precious, and some Devil Dwellers might not even meet one in their entire lives.
Of course, in those villages where there were Ancient Devil Warriors, there was a high possibility of the existence of the Dripping Blood Stones.
After all, it was not enough to fuse with the Dripping Blood Stones. The requirements were also very harsh, and the further one went, the more difficult it was.
The difficulty of fusing with the tenth Dripping Blood Stone would even be several times more difficult than fusing with the first. If one could not bear the loss of consciousness during the fusion process, the fusion would fail, and the Dripping Blood Stone would also turn into nothingness, which would still cause great damage to one’s body.
Those Ancient Devil Warriors would carefully treasure the Dripping Blood Stones after getting them, and they would try when their strengths reached a certain level.
Ou Yangming would definitely be able to get some Dripping Blood Stones if he went to the nearby villages, but he did not have that idea.
He did not want to snatch other people’s opportunities unless it was absolutely necessary. Besides, he did not have any ill feelings towards the Devil Dwellers.
Ou Yangming only treated them as ordinary creatures.
“Looks like I’ll have to make a trip to a city of the Devil Dwellers.”
In a city of the Devil Dwellers, it would be much easier to get the Dripping Blood Stones but before that, he had to put on some makeup.
“Howl!”
All of a sudden, a blue eye appeared in the dense forest.
“A Dark Ferocious Beast?” Ou Yangming narrowed his eyes. He originally wanted to find trouble with a Dark Ferocious Beast, but he did not expect one to come knocking on his door.
A shadow gradually walked out from the dark. It was a 3-meter-tall wolf. Its black fur was like a ghost, and its blue eyes seemed to be dancing with flames.
“Shouldn’t wolves be in a pack?”
Ou Yangming turned back to take a look. Sure enough, he was surrounded by a wolf pack.
He scanned the wolf pack and looked at a certain spot. There was a 5-meter tall Wold King there. It lay on the ground and looked in his direction with disdain in its eyes.
‘That big fella’s so powerful.. It should have at least a Dripping Blood Stone, right?’ Ou Yangming looked at the Wolf King with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
