Chapter 327: Chapter 162: Blood Test_2

The next moment, his hand jerked as if it had received an electric shock. A severe, stinging pain coursed through his palm, causing it to convulse involuntarily. The sense of rejection was stronger than the previous time, intensifying to the point where it numbed his hand with pain.

What a thing, even stronger rejection! If I were to soak in this, who knows what could happen. This won’t do. Does the level increase result in stronger backlash?

Long Dangdang was a bit speechless. Is the only blood that suits him and his brother that of the earth fire lizard? What was going on?

This time he took a full fifteen minutes to recover, then switched hands, picking up a vial of the third type of magical beast blood.

It wasn’t working, still not working. Three consecutive trials, each producing some degree of rejection, and inducing extreme pain. Simultaneously, under the repulsion of his Bloodline Power, these blood samples lost their vitality quickly. It was as though they had been extinguished, erased of their special characteristics.

Long Dangdang was on the verge of giving up, after five trials with different blood types, all ending in failure. He was starting to wonder whether the pleasurable sensation he’d felt with the earth fire lizard’s blood had been an illusion.

However, his disposition was generally calm. Had it been Long Kongkong, he would have given up already. But Long Dangdang resolved to continue his attempts.

The blood samples his cousin had brought back were all different types of magical beast blood. He needed to try them all to understand exactly what was happening. As long as the pain wasn’t intolerable, he could bear it.

So, he opened the sixth vial. It was a wooden vial, labeled with the words "chameleon lizard, level 6 magical beast". This beast, which doesn’t grow too large and feeds on insects, is relatively harmless. It’s most notable for its ability to blend into the environment, changing the color of its skin based on its surroundings, hence its name.

Another lizard-like magical beast? Long Dangdang suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. This creature also belonged to the category of lizard-like magical beasts, just like the earth fire lizard. Was it possible that there would be a difference?

With these thoughts in mind, he once again activated his Cultivation Technique, pouring a drop of the chameleon lizard’s blood onto his palm.

The intense pain he’d experienced previously did not resurface this time. The slightly green droplet of blood rolled around in Long Dangdang’s palm. He invoked his Blood Refining Golden Body Technique, and a thin green mist began to rise from the surface of the blood. Even the faint fragrance of plants wafted into Long Dangdang’s nostrils. Then, in an instant, the droplet of blood and the green mist disappeared into his palm without a trace.

Long Dangdang only felt a wave of coolness arise from his palm. All the pain brought about by attempting to absorb other blood samples vanished instantaneously. An array of strange, iridescent colors appeared on the surface of his palm, followed by a flash of faint purple lines, which disappeared as quickly as they appeared.

There was a chance! Long Dangdang felt a surge of joy in his heart. This chameleon lizard’s blood seemed to be something he could absorb.

Without rushing, he switched hands and tried again. The result was exactly the same, and the pricking pain in this hand also disappeared.

Lizard’s blood works? Long Dangdang wondered, startled.

Once again, he headed to the bathroom, filled the bathtub with water, and poured in the chameleon lizard’s blood. Instead of plunging in directly like Long Kongkong, he protected his body with liquid spiritual power. Stepping into the water, he slowly let down his guard.

This time, he kept his eyes open as he activated his Cultivation Technique. Immediately, he saw a clear, iridescent glow start to appear. His whole body was enveloped by a refreshing sensation, making him feel extraordinarily comfortable. The feeling was indescribably refreshing, as if he was eating a large, iced watermelon on a scorching summer day.

The bathroom was soon filled with a faint, plant-like fragrance. In just a few minutes, all the chameleon lizard’s blood in the water had been depleted, absorbed completely.

Could it truly be possible? Long Dangdang sensed some changes in his body: his vitality seemed a bit more robust, his body felt sturdier.

Quickly, he got out from the bathtub, and used the sphere to test his outer spiritual power.

His outer spiritual power had increased by thirty-five. Yes, just within these few minutes, his outer spiritual power had increased directly by thirty-five points. There was still half a bottle of chameleon lizard blood! If he used all of it, wouldn’t he be able to increase his outer spiritual power by seventy points? This speed was truly astonishing! If he had more chameleon lizard blood, how much could he increase his outer spiritual power?

Long Dangkong’s heartbeat started to quicken. Evidence had shown that they could cultivate using the Blood Refining Golden Body Technique, the only problem was the selection of blood. Only suitable blood could assist in cultivation. Meanwhile, unsuitable blood would only cause problems. So far, they confirmed that only two types of lizard blood could produce effects.

He didn’t use the remaining half-bottle of chameleon lizard blood— it would undoubtedly be saved for Kongkong. With an increase of thirty-five points, Kongkong could cultivate his outer spiritual power to 4th Rank, which would be a qualitative leap forward.

Long Dangdang returned to the outer room. With this success, his confidence reignited, and he immediately prepared to continue experimenting. He was curious to know what the next one was.

Within the long-necked crystal flask was a dark red blood faintly tinged with yellow. The label read, "Earth Thorny Dragon, Level 6 magical beast."

Earth Thorny Dragon, of the earth dragon genus, covered in hard scales with thorn-like protrusions on its back. A mature Earth Thorny Dragon exceeds seven meters in length and is generally docile. The Knights Temple had even attempted to domesticate Earth Thorny Dragons to form an Earth Dragon Legion. Although their speed was not particularly high, with their weight exceeding three thousand catties, they were indeed the best heavy cavalry. The Knights Temple’s knight battalion currently had a standing force of five hundred mounted on such creatures. A mature Earth Thorny Dragon is a Level 6 magical beast, and it was quite rare for a few of the mutated species to reach Level 7 or even Level 8. This required a certain mutation in their dragon genus bloodline to occur.

The Knights Temple has already completed the artificial breeding of the Earth Thorny Dragon. It’s one of the few magical beasts that humans had managed to domesticate.

Earth Thorny Dragons are also the best heavy laborers in the army. Their enormous strength allows them to pull very heavy objects. Those that cannot be used as war mounts are used as heavy laborers and are very popular in the army.

The Earth Thorny Dragon has only one innate talent skill, Gravitational Control. It can freely switch gravity within three times its own, either diminishing it or amplifying it.

Long Dangdang was in as good a state as any. He didn’t have high hopes, and he dropped a droplet of Earth Thorny Dragon blood on his palm.

Accompanied by the activation of the Blood Refining Golden Body Technique, Long Dangdang suddenly felt a heaviness in his palm, as if the droplet of blood was increasing in weight. Then he was surprised to see the droplet of Earth Thorny Dragon blood sink into his palm and disappear. Following that, the purple patterns that had appeared multiple times emerged once again, giving his palm a sense of weightiness.

Did it succeed? Did it also succeed?

A wave of joy surged in Long Dangdang’s heart. The second type of blood that could be absorbed successively?

If the blood of the Earth Thorny Dragon could be successfully absorbed, it would undoubtedly be a major advantage. Because this is probably the easiest magical beast blood to acquire. After all, due to being artificially bred, Earth Thorny Dragons were easy to find and belonged to the Knights Temple. Furthermore, the enormous Earth Thorny Dragon had a very large amount of blood in its body.

Couldn’t wait to return to the bathroom and try again!

Successful!
