Chapter 74: The Path of Devils Transformation

  Chapter Seventy-Four: The Path of Devil's Transformation

  "However, 5th or 6th tier demonic beasts might still be available for bulk purchase, but 7th or 8th tier ones not only have low supply, the Mercenary Guild also generally refuses to sell them."

  "Having money is also useless?" Li Xie frowned and said.

  Scamode shook his head: "Mercenaries are a group of people who like excitement and adventure, they have a high mortality rate, and the combat power required is not low. The seven or eight-tiered magic beasts will definitely be supplied first. In addition, some five or six-tiered magic beasts can be cultivated, and it is possible to achieve mass supply, but most five or six-tiered magic beasts cannot be artificially cultivated! As for the seven or eight-tiered magic beasts, it is impossible to cultivate them at all! These must go to capture wild magic beasts in order to obtain them! In itself, strong power is needed to capture high-level magic beasts, and the danger is great. Moreover, high-level magic beasts are intelligent, and the temperament of wild high-level magic beasts is fierce, most of which would rather die than surrender. It's almost impossible to have a certain quantity, this is also the problem with the shortage of magic beast resources in various countries!"

  Li Xie nodded and glanced at Zeennard, then said: "I heard that the three major guilds' strength is generally higher than the empire's, and the price of magical beasts is expensive. It should be possible to attract some strong people to do this job. Catching a large number of 7th or 8th tier magical beasts shouldn't be a problem. Do you think there are such strong people that we can negotiate with?"

  Scamode said, "You're joking, sir. The Three Great Guilds are indeed powerful, but their demigods or saints wouldn't deign to do this kind of thing. As for the 9th and 10th tier experts, they might want to try, but it's not that easy. Wild magical beasts often gather in groups, three to five 7th tier beasts would make people flee in terror, let alone three to five 8th tier beasts, even a 10th tier summoner would be in danger! And the high-tier magical beasts that act alone are all in dangerous regions, like the Dead Swamp, where toxic gas and mud pits are everywhere. Many 7th and 8th tier beasts live there, but few people dare to enter, and those who do often don't come out!"

  Scamo's words made Li furrow his brow, and after a moment of contemplation, he said: "Alright, introduce me to some people who deal in magical beasts. Also, if you know any mercenary groups, introduce them to me too. In short, tell me all the ways I can get my hands on magical beasts."

  Li Xie decided to contact the people who directly faced the wild demons, perhaps more clearly than Skamo said, whether or not they could get the demons was also up to them!

  After all, what Li Xie wants is not only to equip the army, but also to provide blood. Equipping the army can buy five or six levels of magic beasts, and according to Skamo's meaning, maybe a batch can be bought. But for Li Xie himself to improve his strength, fifth-level magic beasts are useless, sixth-level magic beasts need a huge number, it's best to get seventh or eighth level magic beasts, and also need a certain amount to really take effect.

  "Sir, I can tell you some ways, but... I hope sir can agree with me one condition..."

  "Say."

  "I hope you won't mention this to anyone, especially the part about me providing you with a way out... As for how you knew about these ways, just say... just say you got it from inside Chrysanthemum City."

  Li Xie smiled, this demon beast minister's mind was quite meticulous, he told Li Xie the way to the door, Li Xie would go to buy demon beasts, the demon beast minister's way, was probably also Mercedes VII's way, in this case, it was equivalent to Li Xie competing with Mercedes VII for business!

  If Mercedes VII knew about this, he wouldn't dare treat Li Xie like that, but the demonic minister Skarmord would be in trouble.

  "Alright, I won't just say it was you who told me, I'll even help you come up with a more elegant excuse. Go on."

  "Thank you, sir." Scamador finally put down his heart and said: "If the lord wants to buy 5th or 6th rank magical beasts, he can go to the business office of Manni City's Chamber of Commerce to find Sandol Kochis, the deputy director in charge of large-scale magical beast transactions. Sometimes they also sell 7th or 8th rank magical beasts, but bring enough gold, he doesn't like to haggle over prices. If you want to capture high-ranking magical beasts, Atre Leyer's Thunderbolt Mercenary Corps specializes in this business, and you can also find them directly to negotiate. They will be in Mannster City, which is also the main gathering place for mercenaries. The lord can try to trade with some mercenary corps."

  "Manni City, Munster City......" Neither of these places belongs to any country's jurisdiction. They are also marked on the Gods' Continent map. Li Xie didn't need to ask much and said, "Hmm, then give me the blood you've collected."

  "Yes, sir!" Scamode took out several iron buckets from the spatial ring and said: "This is the blood of a sixth-order magical beast, totaling 2,700 liters; this is the blood of a seventh-order magical beast, totaling 450 liters; this is the blood of an eighth-order magical beast, totaling 300 liters."

  "Huh? So many eighth-tier magical beasts?" Li Xie knew that Mercedes VII only had one eighth-tier magical beast left, and a hundred seventh-tier magical beasts had only extracted 450 liters of blood. One eighth-tier magical beast actually had 300 liters!

  Scammon chuckled: "That head is so big, so..."

  "Oh……" The bigger the physique, the more blood there is, but unfortunately, what Li Xie wants is the energy contained in the demon beast's blood, not the amount of blood. The more blood there is, the more diluted the energy becomes! Otherwise, if Zayn Nadar transformed into a giant dragon, his body would have at least 100 liters of blood! And last time when he absorbed Zayn Nadar's human form blood, it was less than 1 liter, yet it already made Li Xie jump two levels. If Zayn Nadar were to transform into a giant dragon, wouldn't absorbing just a small proportion of his blood be enough to make him jump multiple levels?

  So, it's a pity that Zayn Nad turned into a giant dragon, with more blood, but the energy was diluted, just like this eighth-level magic beast, with a larger body, can hold more blood, but the energy didn't increase in proportion.

  In any case, there are a thousand sixth-order magic beasts, a hundred seventh-order magic beasts, and an eighth-order magic beast that have collected nearly three months of blood. Perhaps, it can make Li Xie upgrade again!

  "Everyone get out and wait, no one is allowed to come in without my order, Zein stays." Li Xie was ready to drink blood directly in the study room, but let everyone go out. It wasn't that he was afraid they would see him drinking blood, but rather because Li Xie had learned from "The Vampire Handbook" that when advancing from orange eyes to green eyes, it wouldn't be as calm a promotion as from black eyes to yellow eyes or orange eyes, but could involve some special changes!

  Vampires are divided into nine levels based on their strength, distinguished by eye color. Black-eyed, yellow-eyed, and orange-eyed vampires can be said to be low-ranking vampires with limited abilities. However, blue-eyed and green-eyed vampires are mid-ranking vampires with significantly enhanced abilities, and their bodies also undergo some qualitative changes. In the process of an orange-eyed vampire advancing to a blue-eyed one, they will initially struggle to adapt to the physical transformation, causing any changes to become apparent!

  Li Xie was afraid that his transformed appearance would be too terrifying, causing others to treat him as a monster, so he didn't dare go out.

  Everyone left, and Li Xie began drinking the blood brought by Skarmory.

  Firstly, they drank the blood of a sixth-tier magical beast. There were three barrels in total, each with a cubic capacity, which was equivalent to one thousand liters.

  The blood of the sixth-order demon beast flowed into his stomach, and it was as if a clear spring had burst forth throughout Li Xie's entire body. Whether it was his spirit or his physical form, both were filled with an especially pleasant sensation. As he drank, Li Xie let out comfortable sighs, feeling the blood emit a tangible power that penetrated deep into every part of his body, and he felt an overwhelming urge to let out a loud whoop.

  Two thousand seven hundred liters of blood, figuratively speaking, is enough to fill two or three bathtubs. Relying solely on Li Xie's mouth, it took almost half an hour to finish drinking!

  Waiting for him to finish drinking the blood of the six-tiered magic beast, Zayn Nadir's eyes were about to pop out: "You... are you also a transformed magic beast? Could it be that you're even stronger than the Monju Beast?"

  "Go away, you're a beast!" Li Xie said with annoyance, but was too lazy to bother with him.

  The energy provided by the blood of the sixth-tier magical beast coursed through his entire body, but it was still far from enough to advance to Azure Eyes!

  In terms of data, Li Ye's ascension to the Azure Eyes requires one million points of energy, while a single sixth-tier demonic beast can only provide one point of energy per day from its extracted blood.

  The blood extracted from a thousand sixth-tier magical beasts over ninety days, which is just what was obtained earlier, amounts to only 900,000 points of energy, still far too short of the one million points needed!

  "It seems that advancing to a Qingyan Vampire is out of the question!" Li Xie felt somewhat disappointed, after all, the remaining seventh and eighth-tier demon beasts' blood was just this little, how much energy could it provide?

  Although Li Xie knew that his body was suppressing its absorption of blood energy due to some relationship, and this suppression would change with the intensity of the blood's energy and Li Xie's own condition. The lower the level of the blood, the stronger the suppression, and only when Li Xie's body was injured could he absorb energy from the fifth-level demon beast's blood. And the higher the level of the blood, the weaker the suppression, until the sixth-level demon beast's blood, Li Xie's body could absorb some energy to help him advance even if he wasn't injured.

  The blood of the Seventh-Order Demon Beast, Li Xie had not drunk before. Although he didn't know how much his strange inhibitory power would suppress the energy absorption of the Seventh-Order Demon Beast's blood, the Seventh-Order Demon Beast was only one level higher than the Sixth-Order Demon Beast, and there were only a hundred heads, probably couldn't provide the remaining 910,000 points of energy.

  "Better drink it first and store some for emergency use!"

  Li Xie carefully picked up the iron bucket containing the seventh-tier demon beast's blood and drank it cautiously.

  Seventh-tier demonic beast blood enters his body, Li Xie's eyes suddenly widen! Excited light flashes in Li Xie's eyes non-stop!

  Energy!

  Surging energy!

  If the blood of a sixth-tier demonic beast is like a clear spring gushing in, then the energy of a seventh-tier demonic beast's blood is like a flood bursting forth!

  A substantial power surges through every cell in the body, as if there's a feeling of being about to burst!

  The energy of the seven-tiered demon beast is actually so enormous!

  No, it should be said that Li Xie's body has a strong inhibitory effect on the absorption of sixth-order demon beast blood energy, but for seventh-order demon beast blood energy, the absorption is weakened dozens of times!

  To illustrate with data, the blood that a sixth-order demon beast can extract in one day can provide Li Xie with 100 points of energy, but it was suppressed by Li Xie's body by 99%, and Li Xie only absorbed a little bit of energy.

  The blood of a seventh-tier demon beast contains energy that is twice as much as that of a sixth-tier demon beast, which means it can provide Li Xie with 200 points of energy. However, the suppressive force that exists within Li Xie only has half the effect on seventh-tier demon beasts, meaning that one seventh-tier demon beast can extract blood for a day, and Li Xie can absorb 100 points, which is 100 times that of a sixth-tier demon beast.

  The blood of the seven-tiered demon beast was drained dry, and Li Xie let out a low, hoarse roar from the depths of his throat, it was a feeling of comfort to the point of explosion!

  Power!

  My body is full of power!

  Each cell is about to burst with power!

  Each of the seven-tiered magic beasts can extract blood that can provide Li Xie with 100 points of energy per day. The blood collected from 100 seven-tiered magic beasts over 90 days is equivalent to 9 million points of energy!

  With the addition of the energy provided by the blood of one thousand sixth-grade magical beasts, Li Xie's body had accumulated 990,000 points of energy, only 10,000 points short.

  And now, there's even the blood of an eighth-rank magical beast!
