Death… And Me

Chapter 3079  Body Characteristics

Back in the World Splitting Sect, Roan had his eyes closed in a corner while working on the Absorption Method. 'The Blood Reformation Pill will improve his overall talent and bloodline. Still, even if I change the method and make Yuan absorb the Charybdis Mother's Bloodline slowly, I think he will still not resist all of that...'

Suddenly, he had an idea. 'The Red Lightning Cultivation Technique. Right! This is a technique made to work with Foliana's Red Lightning Hawk Bloodline. She also absorbed the Red Lightning Hawk Essence Blood. The difference was that she already had the Red Lightning Hawk Bloodline from the start, although just the common one.'

'Nonetheless, I should be able to fuse the Red Lightning Cultivation Technique and the Absorption Method. Rean, send your Spiritual Sense into Yuan's body. I want to take a look at his Horned Cloud Shark Bloodline,' Roan asked.

Rean nodded and sent his Spiritual Sense inside.

Roan then checked how the Blood Reformation Pill worked on Yuan's Bloodline and body. He didn't need to have Yuan test anything since Roan wasn't creating a new Cultivation Technique. All he needed was for Yuan's body to be able to resist the Charybdis Bloodline. 'Yes, that will do just nicely.'

Suddenly, Diliy arrived at Roan's location, asking out. "Are you done meditating already? I want to check something with you."

Roan opened his eyes and shook his head. "I'm still reviewing what I learned so far. I will need a few hours here."

Diliy nodded and then sent Roan a Spiritual Sense Message. 'In that case, check this as well. It is something I've been thinking about the Fifth Stage of Sword Intent. See if it is feasible.'

Roan felt a headache. His mind was completely occupied with Yuan's situation, so he couldn't look at the information Diliy sent him with his Spiritual Sense now. 'Alright, I will give you an answ-'

However, just as he was about to shove the information aside for the moment, he saw something in Diliy's theory that caught his eyes. 'Bloodline... Regardless of race, everyone has their own bloodlines, even humans, spirits, essence race, etc. By bloodline, we aren't necessarily talking about real blood but the specific characteristics of every race.'

Roan looked at Diliy with surprise. "Your theory is that next the key to the next level lies on your body instead of your understanding of the weapon, is it?"

Diliy nodded. "I'm not sure if this is the right path, but it has been bothering me ever since I met you and your brother. Perhaps what we lack in our intents is an understanding of our own body. To be more specific, in which way our very beings affect the weapon we use."

Roan, who just happened to be working on two types of bloodline techniques at the moment, felt like Diliy's words opened a new world for him. "I see... That's it! That's really it!"

Back in the Charybdis Mother's Brain, Rean's eyes opened wide. Roan was sharing his conversation with Diliy as well as his memories of that moment. Naturally, he saw and heard everything. Not only that, what Roan understood, so did he. "So that's how it works. So that's what the fifth stage is about!"

However, Rean quickly calmed down. Roan would definitely put the theory to the test soon. For now, they had to focus on Yuan.

---

Seeing Roan's sudden outburst, Diliy couldn't help but feel hopeful. "Did you understand something? Quick, tell me!"

Roan nodded. "I will. However, not now. Give me a few hours to organize my thoughts. You can stay here if you want, just don't bother me for a while. It will be faster if I show you later."

Diliy took a deep breath and nodded. "Alright, I will not leave your side. Not even god can make me leave this place now."

Time passed, and a few hours later, Yuan's transformation finally ended. His Horned Cloud Shark body was giving a fool stench, and a black liquid was present all around his body. "My body hurts so much..."

Rean immediately covered Yuan's entire body with Light Element, getting rid of the impurities that escaped his body during the Blood Reformation. He also helped relieve Yuan's body fatigue. "How is it now?"

Yuan stretched his shark body, feeling extremely comfortable. "I feel so light. It is as if I'm inside a completely new body."

"Well, that isn't completely wrong," Rean explained. "The pill I gave you has reformed your blood. Your Horned Cloud Shark Blood should be quite a lot stronger now. Too bad that your race truly has no connection with any Divine Demon Beast of any type. If it did, the pill would have brought a little bit of that dormant bloodline to the surface."

Yuan didn't mind. He could feel that although his cultivation hadn't changed a single bit, he was truly much better now. It might not be enough to fight the Sea Demon Beasts who are trying to get Tana, but it is definitely not far. "Thank you, Rean."

Rean waved his hand. "It is too early to thank me. Now that your transformation is done, I need you to study this bloodline absorption technique that I altered for you."

Yuan immediately received the whole information through Spiritual Sense and had to spend an hour just to organize the entire thing in his head. Yet, once he was done with it, he couldn't help but feel impressed. "This... I think I can even add some of these concepts to my normal cultivation." n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Demon Beasts don't use Cultivation Techniques like humanoid races, so that was quite a big chance for Yuan. Nonetheless, he understood that what really mattered now was the bloodline absorption. "Alright, let review it a little more and then we can give it a try."

Rean nodded and left Yuan alone. He turned to Uruavis instead, who seemed to be in his last moments. "Hold a little bit more, Uruavis. Perhaps we will succeed."

Uruavis tried to force a smile despite feeling so weak. "As long as Mother... is fine..."
