One pound of meat equals one attribute point.

Chapter 434 Completion of the Ritual; Awakening

As the will of the blood realm dissipated, Mount Tibora was also somewhat polluted by the chaotic forces of the outside world. In addition, this was the main place where the underworld people arranged rituals, so it was not appropriate to continue to practice in seclusion here.

Swish!
Pass through the mythical battlefield and come to the blood world.

Su Heng's powerful force roared around him, and without stopping, he accelerated and flew towards the depths of the blood realm.

He stopped in a circular valley covered with blood-colored crystals in the northern continent, sat cross-legged on the ground, and then as his mind moved slightly, his body expanded rapidly with a rumbling sound.

Blink time.

Su Heng returned to his original form which was over seventy meters tall.

The body was covered with thick armor, and clusters of black feather-like thorns grew out of it.

As a large amount of air was inhaled and exhaled by Su Heng's body, the air outside also rose sharply.

The entire valley seemed to be inside a huge furnace, so much so that the blood-red crystals around it were crackling and showing signs of melting.

The surroundings are desolate.

All the powerful demons with names and surnames in the entire blood world were wiped out.

Although this is just a random place for retreat, I am not worried about being disturbed.

Restore your original form and make slight adjustments.

Su Heng quickly entered a state of cultivation.

As the Eight-Nine Profound Art was practiced to the ninth level, the second heart underwent a transformation.

Many of his organs were also strengthened, among which the stomach, as the core of the digestive system, underwent the most significant changes.

Ever since he truly embarked on the path of cultivation, in order to obtain more attribute points, Su Heng has been deliberately strengthening his digestion ability.

And now it has reached a new level.

The stomach of this monster is no longer just flesh and blood, but a nuclear reactor filled with high-temperature liquid.

The demon's flesh and blood contains extremely rare nutrients for warriors.

But it's not easy to digest.

Not only is its hardness greater than that of gold and stone.

It also contains many toxins that are harmful to the human body and even hinder spiritual practice.

Therefore, even if some powerful earthly immortals can hunt demons alone in Changshengtian or the Mythology battlefield, it is still impossible to quickly replenish and improve strength in this way. In response to this problem, in the Zhou Dynasty and some immortal sects, there are even "immortal chefs" who specialize in preparing demon flesh and blood.

However, Su Heng never had to worry about such problems.

On the one hand, with the blessing of the attribute panel, he has a special physique and is absolutely immune to all poisons.

On the other hand, the moment the demon's flesh and blood entered Su Heng's stomach, it was broken down into basic energy particles and further digested and absorbed in the intestines.

In Su Heng's furnace of flesh and blood.

There was originally a pile of demon flesh and blood as high as a mountain.

As Su Heng digested it with all his might, the flesh and blood was rapidly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The space inside the Flesh and Blood Furnace became empty again.

But what he got in return was Su Heng's further growth in size and the further improvement of the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

"call……"

A long breath of foul air whizzed out from his mouth and nose.

Inside Su Heng's body, the last small crystal-shaped biological reactor was also successfully condensed.

His body became blurry at first, the space around him distorted, large clouds of black smoke rose up, covering the sky, and then the dissipated breath quickly stabilized.

Su Heng counted with his fingers.

This retreat lasted exactly seven days.

He looked around and, as expected, there was already a young-looking dragon guard waiting here.

The surrounding valley had already been destroyed by the waste heat that Su Heng unconsciously discharged from his body during his practice. The blood-red crystals were destroyed, and the surrounding mountain walls had deep red traces of flowing lava.

The dragon guard's body was covered with a layer of hazy light formed by strong energy.

Although these super soldiers cultivated with Su Heng's blood have the natural ability to resist high temperatures and radiation.

But in such a situation, he was still able to stand in front of Su Heng, which clearly made him one of the best even among the Dragon Guards.

"Your name is..."

Looking at the face of the young dragon guard, Su Heng immediately had an impression in his mind, "Pang Xuan."

"grown ups!"

An excited expression suddenly appeared on Pang Xuan's face.

When the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons was pacified before, Pang Xuan had fought alongside Su Heng.

He didn't expect that after such a long time, the master still remembered his name, which made him feel a little flattered.

Pang Xuan bowed first, then suppressed his fiery emotions and explained his purpose, "The Dark Daoist sent me to inform you that the ceremony is ready."

"is it?"

Su Heng showed a look of understanding on his face, "I understand."

Click!

His body moved slightly.

The layer of condensed dust covering its body quickly broke apart and fell off in large pieces.

The glittering scales were exposed in the distorted air. At first glance, the scales were dark black, but as Su Heng moved, golden light began to boil in the gaps between the scales.

Rumbling thunder came from the sky.

Dark clouds are gathering.

Large clouds of thick smoke rose into the air like huge pillars, and the suction effect further formed a howling gale.

After absorbing enough nutrients to completely complete the transformation of the second heart.

Su Heng's body has further grown to eighty meters.

The weight also increased by almost 20,000 tons.

The solar furnace and thousands of nuclear reactors inside his body allow him to unleash immeasurable destructive power with just a wave of his hand or a move of his foot.

This is only the first level of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art, and the life level has been elevated to this level.

The vast world.

Su Heng already has a bit of the charm of Dugu Qiubai.

Shi Teng was already a well-known master before, but even if Su Heng did not use his full strength, he was still able to pin him to the ground and rub him.

Perhaps the only ones that can still pose a threat to him now are the legendary Sky Tyrant Dragon, the Adventer, and the Avengers battleship that the Demon Race built with all their efforts during its heyday.

Then, there are some ancient beings in Changshengtian.

hiss!
As the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art is put into operation.

Su Heng's muscles and bones began to make sounds, and his body shrank rapidly.

Pang Xuan said, "I'll lead the way."

"No need." Su Heng shook his head and then grabbed his arm.

As his body grew in size, his mental strength also improved accordingly. Now, Su Heng was able to perform the divine movement again with greater ease.

It's not a big problem even if you bring one person with you.

Swish!
As the scene flashes several times.

Su Heng had crossed half of the blood realm and returned to Mount Tambora.

Rumble!
As soon as I arrived here, a smell mixed with gun smoke and dust hit me.

The hot wind blew on my face, lifting my hair. On the top of the pitch-black volcano, several giants were struggling to set up big drums. The sound of the drums mixed with thunder and could be heard from a long distance. Around the volcano were newly built urban areas with many people. At this time, all of them walked out onto the streets and squares, looking up with curiosity on their faces.

Su Heng reached out and touched his chin.

As soon as he took a step forward, he arrived at the top of the volcano.

Hundreds of dragon guards wearing golden armor and holding spears held their chests straight.

They lined up along the carved steps, with tense facial muscles, forming a ceremonial corridor.

The temple below had been roughly completed due to the hard work of the fire giants day and night, with a black base built of heavy basalt, dragon-shaped columns, and a vault decorated with glazed tiles and jewels. The huge and ferocious sculpture of Su Heng was casting a shadow and was enshrined on the platform in the middle of the temple.

Su Heng withdrew his gaze.

At the end of this corridor is a square table for placing offerings.

Normally, the highest-level offerings for worshipping heaven and earth are dragons, phoenixes, and unicorns.

This is of course impossible.

Even if Su Heng had great means now, it would be impossible for him to capture three divine beasts that had long disappeared, and the Blood Realm was not worthy of such a high-level sacrifice.

However, in order to ensure the success rate of this conversion.

The three demons who look similar can still be found with a little effort.

There were three bloody heads, each with a diameter of more than ten feet, with wide open bloodshot eyes, and scarlet murderous aura rising up like wolf smoke.

Behind him, the flames of Mount Tibora were boiling and rumbling.

It's like a hungry gourmet seeing the delicious food on the table and feeling particularly hungry.

Rhythmic drum beats came from the surrounding void. With a loud bang at the peak, lightning flashed, and the sound stopped abruptly.

boom!
The ground shook violently.

Mount Tambora had another small eruption, with flames flickering on the top of the mountain.

Then the man from the underworld came slowly over, holding Li Hongxiu's hand.

Between the master and the disciple.

The man from the underworld is still dressed in white clothes as white as snow.

Li Hongxiu had obviously dressed up carefully.

She was wearing a moon-white silk robe with wide sleeves that hung in front of her body as her hands were folded. Around her waist was a cherry-colored tasseled belt that outlined her slender waist. In addition, her wrists, neck, and ankles were decorated with jade and crystal, which jingled when she walked, like wind chimes hanging under the eaves of a bamboo forest villa.

Li Hongxiu had a calm expression, with light makeup on her face, and a streak of vermilion dotted between her fair eyebrows.

After seeing Su Heng, Li Hongxiu stopped.

He bowed slightly towards him.

"If you want to regret it, it's not too late now." Su Heng looked her over and then spoke softly.

Li Hongxiu just smiled and replied in the same light voice, "I'm ready."

Su Heng stopped trying to persuade him.

His eyes fell on the dark man beside him, "Can we start now?"

Mingdaoren nodded, and then sought advice from Li Hongxiu.

Wait until everything is sorted out.

The drumbeats that had stopped just now started again, but this time they became more solemn and dignified. Every time the fire giants struck the drums, the ground beneath their feet shook slightly, and black gravel hung in the air.

The three dragon guards had already rehearsed, and they quickly stepped forward after receiving the signal from the underworld man.

They inserted their spears into the base of the sacrifice, and then pressed down with great force. With a crashing sound, the heads of the three demon gods rolled down the inner wall of the volcano into the boiling magma.

Pfft!
Three muffled sounds came almost simultaneously.

Under Su Heng's will, the Tibora volcano, which had been relatively quiet, began to tremble violently.

Thick cracks spread under the feet, and the smell of gunpowder and sulfur gushed out with a sharp beeping sound, followed by golden-red waves of fire surging outward.

The flames reflected on Li Hongxiu's moon-white long dress and her delicate and soft face.

She took a deep breath.

Finally, he glanced at Su Heng and turned around without hesitation.

She sprinted forward, her white ankles under her long skirt rising and falling like a deer in a forest of fire, the sound of silver bells jingling, and then she suddenly leaped forward, spread her arms, and her whole body merged into the boiling flames.

Boom!

There was a brief silence at first.

Then the volcano erupted with unprecedented violence.

As large amounts of dust were stirred up, the rocks around the mountain pass exploded and flew outward like blooming reeds.

Swish!
Su Heng raised his hand.

The violent mental force like a hurricane swept across the void.

The rubble was suddenly suspended in the air, and after a brief shake, the fire giants steadied themselves and began to beat the drums in front of them even more violently.

Lava erupted, and a golden-red column of fire shot straight into the sky.

The sky was filled with thick clouds, a dark red color.

Solidified magma and silver-white lightning continued to fall from the sky. At the same time, a tremendous will that was enough to shock one's heart spread outward and gently brushed through everyone's heart.

Su Heng felt something and looked behind him, "Li Hongxiu?"

After a moment's wait.

Suddenly, a familiar and light voice came from the empty void, "I'm here."

……

……

……

The ceremony is over.

Su Heng and Ming Daoren came to the temple that had just been built.

Looking up at the sculpture in front of him, Su Heng commented, "Though those fire giants are a little bit stupid, their craftsmanship is pretty good. It's not in vain that we spared their lives."

"This hall is still a bit empty." Su Heng said, "I plan to place your statue here, what do you think?"

The Dark Man was silent for a moment, "If this is your wish..."

"That's consent."

Su Heng quietly changed the subject and said, "I sensed part of Li Hongxiu's will before. So, the ceremony should be successful."

"It seems that the child holds an important position in your eyes." The man from the underworld smiled.

"After all, they were among the first group of people to follow me." Su Heng smiled and shrugged slightly.

"We have passed the most dangerous place, but we still cannot let our guard down. The world will may encounter external contamination during its formation. Although the probability is small, we should be prepared."

"I understand." Su Heng nodded.

At this time, footsteps were heard and a dragon guard came in front of him.

The man from the underworld gestured to Su Heng, took a step back, and his body disappeared into the darkness that seemed to be real.

At this time, a flash of lightning exploded outside. Through the huge window, half of Su Heng's body was covered in pale lightning. In the empty hall, he asked, "What happened?"

"Ji Huaxi has woken up." The dragon guard reported concisely.
