BXBX NOVEL Chapter 89 - 89: Increase in Blood Source
After listening to the narrator, Feng Qi’s gaze focused on the mysterious statue not far away.
This statue was about a meter tall and had the appearance similar to the goat-headed demons. There was a six-pointed star array engraved on its forehead, and a blood-colored rune crystal was embedded in the center.
The narrator would not give meaningless hints. Clearly, killing the life in the statue could bring him unexpected abilities.
Before he took action, he glanced at the entrance. At this moment, Blackie was already engaged in a battle with the goat-headed demons.
The most terrifying thing about Blackie was that its body was almost undamaged. The parts that were attacked would instantly turn into fog and then reassemble to return to their original state, allowing it to be invincible against any opponent.
Back then, Feng Qi thought that Blackie’s ability countered physical damage, but now that he saw the small body made of black fog easily absorb the flames spat out by the goat-headed demons, he understood how terrifying Blackie was.
No matter what kind of damage it was, Blackie had the ability to deal with it.
Such a powerful ability made his scalp tingle. He could not find a way to deal with it at all.
Taking advantage of the goat-headed demons attacking Blackie, he tiptoed towards the mysterious statue.
Arriving in front of it, he took a deep breath and suddenly punched the statue’s head.
His fist collided with the rune crystal on the forehead of the mysterious statue, and blood-colored ripples appeared on the surface. Not only did this punch not shatter the mysterious statue, but the power erupting from the statue even forced him to take a few steps back.
Unwilling to give up, he stepped forward again and swung another punch at the statue’s head.
This time, before his fist could approach the statue, he felt a transparent barrier appear in front of it, blocking his fist from coming into contact with it.
At the same time, the statue suddenly opened its eyes, which emitted a scarlet light. The metallic luster on the surface dissipated at this moment and turned into a blood red filled with muscle stripes.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qi was dumbfounded.
He felt that he might have been tricked by the narrator. This time, he had clearly kicked met a formidable opponent.
However, just as he was about to escape, the statue seemed to have been forcefully turned off. The red light in its eyes dissipated, and the surface of its body glowed with a metallic luster again.
[Please keep your trust in me. After all, even a vicious tiger will not eat its own cubs. I won’t harm you.]
“What do I do now?”
[Continue to attack it. The life in this statue is extremely weak. It can’t attack you at all!]
Hearing this, Feng Qi gritted his teeth and punched the mysterious statue again.
Once, twice, thrice… Under his violent strikes, the new muscles on his right arm were shattered, revealing the white bones.
While he felt pain, he did not stop and continued to punch with all his might.
Finally, a crack appeared on the surface of the mysterious statue. Then, this crack quickly spread throughout the statue’s entire body, and the entire statue immediately dissipated.
What appeared in front of him was a blood-colored sphere of flesh that kept pulsing like a heart. Through the intertwined blood vessels, one could vaguely see the figure curled up and sleeping in the meatbail.
Feng Qi did not hesitate and immediately reached out to grab the blood-colored sphere in his hand before squeezing it hard.
The sphere shattered, and the transparent liquid inside splashed on his face. The little life inside also twisted its body and let out a childish cry.
Its voice was very weak and was completely covered by the commotion caused by Blackie fighting the demons.
Looking at the goat-headed demons that were still attacking Blackie, Feng Qi did not hesitate. He clenched his fingers again and crushed the blood-colored lifeform, killing this special domain creature.
Immediately, a ball of blood-colored fog appeared from the little life form’s body and surged into his body.
After absorbing this ball of blood and Qi, it was as if he had drunk a mouthful of iced cola on a hot summer day. He felt comfortable all over. Then, the flesh on the surface of his body quickly grew, and the muscles that had been scattered were reconstructed as pink granules pulsed.
He could clearly feel that his strength was changing.
As his body underwent changes, he realized that the originally shrunken and corrupted heart in his body seemed to have been activated. The rotten gray color on the surface gradually turned into a lively pink color, and the beating became stronger.
He summoned his attribute panel and realized that he had obtained another prefix title.
[Blood Source Nightmare ? Resilient (LV 2), Strong Living Dead: Feng Qi]
Strength: Iron Low Rank
Prefix Title: Strong: Physical Strength +20%, strengthens self-recovery ability
Resilient LV 3: Muscle Toughness Increase +3%
Nightmare (Cannot be upgraded): Can invade the consciousness and read the contents of the target’s memory. The specific effect depends on the strength of the controller’s mental power. This prefix title has an additional ability that can increase the controller’s mental power.
Blood Source (Cannot be upgraded): Condenses a Blood Core in the heart, greatly increasing the efficiency of the heart’s operation. This ability can also be actively released. In an instant, the Blood Core energy and your own blood and Qi will be drained to support you, increasing your combat strength explosively. This ability will improve along with the increase in the strength of your own blood and Qi.
Bloodline: Human (Beginner)
Bloodline Evolution Points: 235/1000
Prefix Title Milestone:
[Strong (Upgradeable)]:
Milestone Two: 37%
[Resilient LV 3] (Upgradeable): 51%
This prefix title ability was different from the prefix titles he had obtained previously.
Strength and resilience were passive abilities. Nightmares was an ability that needed to be actively released, while Blood Source could either be passive or actively released.
As his heart beat, he could feel the surging vitality inside.
Using his consciousness to gently guide it, his heart would suddenly beat faster, as if he was stepping on the accelerator when driving.
As Feng Qi attempted this, his consciousness suddenly pierced into his heart.
In an instant, an unbelievable scene happened.
The frequency of his heart beating instantly increased by three times, and it was still accelerating. Surging vitality was extracted from his heart and spread throughout his body.
The flesh on the surface of his body grew crazily under the nourishment of this power.
In the blink of an eye, Feng Qi transformed from a skeleton into a two-meter-tall human-shaped muscular monster.
As he clenched his fists, he could clearly feel the surging power in his body.
[Awesome, you directly evolved into a big-muscled tyrant. This ability is indeed very suitable for you! ]
Hearing the narrator’s comment, he could not help but roll his eyes.
At the same time, he could feel the blood essence energy in his body being quickly consumed.
Realizing that this state would disappear soon, he turned to look at the distant entrance and decided to take this opportunity to rush out.
After making his decision, he took a deep breath and ran towards the entrance.
The sudden burst of power under his feet created a deep pit in the ground. His body shot forward like a cannonball, and every step he took sent his body flying a few meters away.
Just as he was about to step into the bloody hole, a goat-headed demon was sent flying by Blackie and fell in front of him, blocking his way.
“F*ckyou.”
Feng Qi immediately kicked out, and the muscles on his right leg instantly condensed, sending the demon flying. Then, he jumped into the blood-colored hole.
If he continued to stay here, he would die if Blackie won. If Blackie lost, he would die too. Leaving while in his transformed state was the wisest choice.
He ran all the way along the blood-colored passageway and finally walked out of the blood-colored hole.
The location of the hole was about ten meters from the ground, but he did not hesitate and immediately jumped down.
His body continued to accelerate as he fell. In the end, he suddenly smashed into the ground. Immediately, gravel flew everywhere, and a pit with a diameter of two meters and covered in turtle cracks formed under his feet.
However, Feng Qi did not feel any discomfort in his Blood Source state and landed steadily.
[Oh my, you’re very strong. As expected, the Big Muscle Tyrant form is the most suitable form for you. Evolve in this direction in the future.]
“Pui!
Hearing the narrator’s complaint, he could not help but roll his eyes.
Compared to the Nightmare ability that he did not know how to release, he had already mastered the way to release Blood Source after trying it out.
Realizing that he had obtained a very good strengthening ability, he was delighted.
He looked up at the blood moon in the sky. After confirming his location, he decisively strode east.
In the Blood Source state, his strength and speed increased exponentially. Even the defense on the surface of his body was greatly enhanced. As he ran, the wind whistled in his ears, and every step he took created a pit in the ground.
However, this state did not last long. Soon, the muscles on his body began to disintegrate and fall off, turning into blood-colored fog that dissipated with the wind. He also returned to his normal skeletal state.
When the blood source status completely disappeared, a sense of weakness arose spontaneously.
It was not that he had become weaker after leaving the state. After all, the main consumption was of Blood Core in his heart and had nothing to do with him.
However, he was used to the power of the Blood Source amplification. After his ability suddenly disappeared, he was a little unaccustomed.
“I feel like my body has been hollowed out. I’m a little uncomfortable.”
[Tsk, tsk, tsk. You have kidney deficiency? at such a young age. How embarrassing.]
“Shut up. I wake up every day with a pillar that holds up the sky.” In the face of the narrator’s mockery, he could not help but glare.
[Where’s the picture? Seeing is believing, hearing is not believing.]
[I suddenly thought of a question. The abilities you obtained in the future dream can be brought back to reality. In other words, you can also use the Blood Source ability in reality. If you do so, what will you do?]
Hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but be stunned.
Thinking about it carefully, he couldn’t help but shiver, and a chill rose in his heart.
The characteristic of the Blood Source ability was to extract the power of the Blood Core in the heart and instantly boost his body.
After using the Blood Core ability, his heart returned to its shrunken and rotten appearance. Even the muscle stripes on his body dissipated after the enhancement.
According to the narrator, if this ability was released in reality, there might be irreversible consequences.
In reality, he would definitely be instantly drained. After temporarily becoming stronger, he would become a living dead in the future dream. He might even lose his life.
In the future dream, he only needed a skeleton to survive, but it was not necessarily the case in reality.
“Narrator, if I enter the living dead state in reality, will I die?”
[That’s a good question. I can only tell you that the truth will always be found through execution, so do you want to give it a try? What if you don’t die?]
“What if I die?”
[I’ll get Suction Cup to cry at your grave for you?]
As Feng Qi raised his middle finger at the narrator in his heart, he had a guess.
Logically speaking, reality corresponded to the future dream. If he became stronger in the future dream, reality would also receive synchronized feedback. Therefore, he probably would die if he was drained after using the Blood Source ability.
At the same time, there was another thing that could prove that his body in reality was very special. He could no longer rely on cultivation to become stronger. He could only increase his strength by killing in the future dream realm.
This indirectly proved that his body in reality was already connected to the future dream.
[It’s better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books. No matter how many ideas you have, it’s better to put them into practice. Warrior, give it a try.]
Although the theory proved feasible, he had no intention of trying.
If his guesses were wrong, he would die on the spot after the effects of Blood Source ability faded.
After looking up at the blood moon, he continued to walk east. Along the way, he scanned his surroundings, appearing very vigilant.
Before finding the protective Suction Cup, he did not dare to mess around anymore. After all, there was still a lot of content in the future database that he had yet to check.
He needed time, and Suction Cup was the guarantee of his stay.
