Chapter Seventy-Five: Green Eyes
Only 10,000 points of energy are left to be promoted to Qingyan Vampire!
A level 8 demonic beast has been drained of its blood for thirty days, can't it even provide a mere ten thousand points?
Li Xie's patience was stirred up, and he hastily picked up the last iron bucket containing the eighth-stage magic beast's blood and poured it into his mouth!
The blood of the eighth-order demon beast surged into his body, and Li Xie's surging energy made his entire body feel like it was about to reach a critical point of explosion. The swelling sensation made Li Xie feel as if he were an inflated balloon filled with gas, ready to burst at any moment!
He had only drunk half of the blood, but Li Xie hastily put it away, for he felt that he could no longer control the energy within his body. All the energy was impacting every cell in his body; he was about to advance!
"Hmm..."
A low growl emanated from Li Xie's throat, his fists clenched tightly as his entire body trembled with tension, his head slightly lowered.
"Ah!"
A loud and shrill cry, Li Xie's head suddenly lifted up, his hands pushed open, the clothes on his upper body ripped apart with a "hiss" sound, and his height actually surged by 20 centimeters, from about 1.8 meters to 2 meters! His physique also increased by one circle, with well-proportioned muscles that seemed to be deliberately carved out, clearly visible! It looked as if it was the perfect physique that only a sculpture could have!
And on his back, two fleshy lumps suddenly bulged out at the shoulder blades, and then two black things burst forth. It was a pair of black wings! The wingspan reached five meters, opening like a large black knife, closing like a cloak! The feathers were of varying lengths, with some longer ones reaching one meter, each feather shaped like a sword blade, making this pair of wings seem to be assembled from black sharp blades!
"Ah..."
A loud and clear roar, the thrill of finally advancing again made him unable to hold back from shouting out all the air in his lungs!
It wasn't until quite a while later that Li Xie finally caught his breath and listened to the roar, his eyes, which had turned a pale green like young grass, shining with an unusually excited light!
He glanced back at the wings behind him, and Li Xie's mouth curled up, suppressing another excited whoop!
This time I made a big profit!
The greatest gain is this pair of wings!
Tangerine-eyed vampires advance to become Azure-eyed vampires, their bodies will become even stronger, one of which is that their body shape becomes larger. Additionally, horns may grow on the forehead, and facial contours may become coarser. Li Xie did not trigger these two points. Finally, wings will grow on the back!
But the orange-eyed vampire will grow a pair of bat wings, rather than Li Xie's black feathered wings. Only by acquiring a special skill - Sword Blade Wings! That is the name of this pair of wings!
Acquiring the Sword Wing will cause him to grow a pair of black wings instead of bat-like wings.
As for why I say that this pair of wings is the greatest gain, it's because these wings can not only be used to fly, but also as a means of attack. Every single feather is like a sharp blade, cutting through iron like mud! Moreover, they can use a move called "Sword Blade Storm", consuming 10% of their physical energy, and scatter the feathers on their wings like flying daggers, it's simply a must-have skill for killing people and plundering goods.
Furthermore, only tenth-tier professions or summoners with special magical pets can fly on the Continent of Gods. With these wings, Li Xie can at least avoid ninety percent of dangers in the air!
Just this pair of sword wing blades was enough to satisfy Li Ye's upgrade this time.
But there's more!
Apart from Jian Feng Yi Yue, Li Xie also obtained two other skills at the same time!
One is "Blood Super Sense", and the other is "Blood Slave Contract".
The so-called "Blood Slave Contract" is similar to the master-slave contract between a summoner and a demon beast. By reciting an incantation and forcing out one's own blood to feed the person who was bitten to death by oneself, that person can be revived and become a vampire, and will retain the deep-seated fear of being bitten to death in their soul. Therefore, new vampires are extremely fearful of the master with whom they have entered into a Blood Slave Contract.
This is similar to what the TV series "Earth" said about vampires biting people and turning them into vampires, but it's completely different. The idea that a vampire can bite someone and turn them into a vampire is completely illogical. If such an ability existed, wouldn't the whole world be vampires by now? Wouldn't they have taken over the world instead of being the weak minority often eliminated on TV?
The Blood Slave Contract is different, it's a skill that only a tiny number of vampires can acquire. Moreover, the Blood Slave Contract cannot be used without restrictions, as creating one requires forcing out 50% of one's blood, which could potentially threaten the vampire's own life. The mortality rate for creating this contract is almost 50%. Vampires who possess this skill basically cannot use it.
Unless it is a top-level purple-eyed vampire, its blood can turn people into vampires with just one drop. However, the purple-eyed vampire probably doesn't bother to create vampires, let alone those without the binding contract of a blood slave. In that case, Li Xie was obviously created by a purple-eyed vampire.
Of course, no matter what the Blood Slave Contract is, Li Xie can't use it because he's afraid of his own blood.
As for Blood Sense, it is an auxiliary skill. This skill is also a considerable gain for Li Xie, as it allows him to perceive the blood energy within nearby living beings.
What is known as blood energy, is the energy contained in the blood that Li Xie understands. Now, without guessing too much, just concentrate and Li Xie can know how much energy the nearby creatures can provide for him.
Li Xie made some adjustments, took a deep breath, and as soon as he moved his mind, the wings behind him flapped open and closed, feeling like an extra pair of hands, controlling them at will! The wings spread out, flapping twice, and Li Xie's body immediately floated in mid-air, it seemed that his flying ability was not weak either.
Li Xie took a few more deep breaths, his mind stirring again, and his body gradually returned to its original size. The wings on his back slowly retracted, shrinking into his back, and his back returned to normal, with no signs of being able to grow wings.
He clenched his fist, and Li Xie muttered to himself: "My physical strength should be at the level of a 7th rank Sword Saint. Even if I were pierced by a sword now, my consciousness wouldn't become blurry. But when it comes to actual combat, do I really have the power of a 7th rank Sword Saint, or is it even higher?"
He glanced at Zayn Nad with a silly expression and Li Xie smiled: "What? Saw a ghost?"
Zayn rubbed his eyes: "You're really a demon! Awesome, I didn't feel even half of your demonic aura! How did you do it?"
"Go! I'm a hundred percent human... well, maybe my bloodline is a bit mixed, but I'm not a demon beast." Li Xie concentrated his mind and looked at Zeennarde, immediately feeling a strong surge of blood energy within him. Li Xie took out the eighth-tier demon beast's blood again, using the Blood Energy Super Sense to perceive it, and was instantly shocked beyond measure.
Zayn's ninth-order giant dragon's blood contained a power that was countless times that of an eighth-order magical beast, an uncountable multiple!
"No wonder that at the beginning, absorbing one-tenth of your blood could make me rise two levels!" Li Xie smiled wickedly at Ze En Nai De, staring until he got goosebumps all over his body, before saying: "Come in, everyone!"
People outside the door heard Li Ye shouting and screaming in the study, they had wanted to come in and take a look to see if anything was wrong, but because of Li Ye's orders, they could only wait anxiously outside the door. Now one by one they rushed in, seeing that Li Ye was safe and sound, just his top garment was gone, this finally put their minds at ease.
"Skarmode, how much blood do you draw from the beast at a time?"
"Return it to you, just once..." Skamord said with some embarrassment: "Just one percent... Sir, can't be more, every day extraction will harm the magical beast's..."
"One percent..." Li Xie muttered to himself, not intending to draw more blood, but rather calculating the amount of blood needed for the next level.
A seventh-tier demon beast with one percent of its blood volume has two hundred points of blood energy, an eighth-tier demon beast is twice that of a seventh-tier demon beast, which is four hundred points of blood energy, but this does not apply to Zaynarde.
Zain's one percent of blood probably contained 100,000 points of blood energy!
In such a situation, Li Xie quickly thought of the special nature of Zayn's blood. He was a giant dragon, and the energy of giant dragons is contained in their blood, which is much more important than that of ordinary magical beasts. If a giant dragon loses more than 10% of its blood, it not only endangers its life but also drops in level. Moreover, giant dragons recover their blood extremely slowly, taking half a year to recover just 10%. Like last time when Zayn was sucked by Li Xie for nearly one-tenth of his blood, if he hadn't kicked Li Xie away in time, he would have probably dropped in level and experienced a long period of weakness.
However, if he occasionally draws a fraction of one percent of the dragon's blood, it won't harm the giant dragon too much. This makes Li Xie think about taking advantage of Zaynarde, but he just thinks about it and doesn't act on it. After all, constantly drawing his blood might provoke some thoughts in Zaynarde, and if that leads to discord between them, it would be a loss. Having Zaynarde the giant dragon as a bodyguard is still better than Li Xie having to level up again.
"It seems that the blood energy contained in the monster's blood is not just a difference in level, but also related to the type. Some monsters have energy stored in their blood, such as giant dragons, and this type of monster's blood contains much more blood energy than others. We must obtain high-level monsters of this type!"
Li Xie thought to himself, taking another sip of the eighth-tier demon beast's blood. His brow furrowed as he pondered, "Indeed, just as I suspected. My strength has increased, and my body's suppression of blood energy absorption has also grown stronger! The eighth-tier demon beast's blood was only partially suppressed earlier, but now it's being suppressed by a tenth! What exactly is suppressing my ability to absorb blood energy? To advance to the next tier as a Green-eyed Vampire, I need 2 million points of blood energy, which would require the entire blood volume of about sixty eighth-tier demon beasts. Seventh-tier demon beasts will likely be even more suppressive, requiring an even greater number. In that case...I can only search for special demon beasts like giant dragons, and they must be high-tier ones at that. Otherwise...when I get the chance, humph! The Dragon Clan!"
If Li Ye's thoughts were known to those around him, he would probably scare them half to death. He actually dared to focus his attention on the Dragon Clan!
Li Xie looked intently at Jack and the others, wanting to see if the blood energy contained within their bodies was more than that of a magical beast.
It's just a glance, but surprisingly surprising!
Xiao An, this one has no real power, the total blood energy is actually 1,000 points! To know, ordinary eighth-order magic beasts' total blood contains only 40,000 points of blood energy. And sixth-order magic beasts, only 10,000 points. Xiao An, a weak woman's blood energy is actually one-tenth that of a sixth-order magic beast! That ratio, calculated by doubling the blood energy, a first-order Sword Saint would have 2,000 points, and a sixth-order Sword Saint or magician, wouldn't they have tens of thousands of points? Ninth-order masters wouldn't they have hundreds of thousands of points?
But Li Xie soon became disappointed, the blood energy contained in ordinary people is not low, but the increase in strength cannot make their blood energy increase much. Li Xie first looked at Xiao An, and then looked at Jack, the strongest person here, a 9th-level Sword Saint, whose body only had about 10,000 points of blood energy.
"It seems that beast blood is still the best choice!" Li Xie shook his head, and with a glance at Kano's Blood Ability, he felt a sudden shock in his heart!
