Devouring the Stars: Blood Sea Demon Lord

Chapter 14 Promotion
autumn.

early morning.

The dense jungle was covered with a thin layer of frost, which condensed into crystal clear ice blades on the edges of the dead grass leaves. The moment the morning light pierced through the mist, the entire wilderness reflected thousands of cold blue stars.

There is no sound of insects in the jungle, no sound of birds, and everything is quiet. Occasionally, there is the rustling sound of leaves and grass caused by the autumn wind.

The unusual silence makes this jungle exude an inexplicable weirdness and a cold and murderous atmosphere.

A pool of blood, nearly ten meters in size, with shimmering waves and bright red color, lies quietly in the center of the jungle. The floating red ripples look like a solidified wound in the dead jungle.

"If it's not 9.99 meters, then there's 9.98 meters. It's just a little bit away from the 10-meter mark!"

The invisible spiritual thought hung high above the blood pool. After a careful estimate, Minghai thought secretly.

In the past year, he has devoured and destroyed at least 2,000 low-level beast soldiers and ferocious beasts in good condition, which is more than the total number in the past 20 years.

More than 2,000 ferocious beasts only increased the diameter of the blood pool by about 0.6 meters, and the increase in ordinary blood water was not much.

However, the amount of high-quality blood and water increased significantly, completely replacing the originally stratified inner layer of blood and water, and its diameter was one to one with the outer layer of blood and water, about 5 meters in radius.

The evolution of life contains profound cosmic laws and is not a simple arithmetic superposition.

The blood pool is facing the transformation of bloodline and the advancement of life essence. The demand for the corpses of ferocious beasts is astonishing, but the proportion of convertible blood is getting lower and lower.

Even so, it's almost over.

The current blood pool is only one step away from complete transformation of bloodline and leap in the essence of life!
"Lonely!"

His thoughts spread out, sensing the jungle within a radius of several hundred meters, and Minghai sighed secretly.

For more than 20 years, the biggest feeling I have had is loneliness.

Living alone in the wilderness for a long time, with no one to chat with or communicate with, would make anyone feel lonely.

The wilderness is sparsely populated, and there are nothing but ferocious beasts. But to him, ferocious beasts are just food. No one will communicate with food, and the Nether Sea naturally won't do that either.

So, he has lived a very lonely life over the years.

During this period, I did encounter humans.

The large-scale war between humans and ferocious beasts has ended, but it has only ended the battles between the top powerful ones. The conflicts and fights at the bottom have continued.

Although this wilderness is remote, there are always human warriors who come here for adventure and pass by inadvertently.

However, whenever a human came here, Minghai would hide his thoughts and transform the smell of blood into a fishy and disgusting odor, making those human warriors unwilling to stay.

Those human warriors went deep into the wilderness with the purpose of hunting ferocious beasts, obtaining precious materials from the beasts, and honing their martial arts skills in an effort to achieve breakthroughs.

Although the blood pool is very strange and unique in every way, no one would be interested in a blood pool that emits a disgusting and fishy smell.

Therefore, over the years, no human warrior has discovered that this pool of blood is not a dead object, but some kind of strange life!
"Ming Zhao is thirty-one years old. I wonder if he's married and has children? I hope he didn't die while fleeing!"

Suddenly, Minghai thought of his son Mingzhao.

Before the RR virus outbreak, his life was happy and fulfilling.

Not only did he marry the beautiful campus belle he had been secretly coveting and let her give birth to a son for him, he also became a billionaire with a complete career, marriage and family, completely making up for the dream of being a loser in his previous life.

Unfortunately, my wife couldn't survive the RR virus and died in the first year of the Cataclysm.

His only son, Mingzhao, also lost contact during the escape.

To this day, Ming Hai is no longer very interested in clinging to Luo Feng, but his concern for his son is growing stronger day by day.

When his son Mingzhao was killed by the iron-haired wild boar, he was only ten years old. It is conceivable how difficult the future life would be for such a young child.

Fortunately, he entrusted Mingzhao to the Luo family. As the Luo family is, they will not treat Mingzhao unfairly and will raise him.

"I don't know if I will be able to see the omen again in the future!"

Minghai thought with some melancholy.

Given his current situation, it is impossible for him to have children in the future, and Mingzhao is his only son in this life.

For over twenty years, he has hunted and killed various creatures, dissolving their corpses into blood and absorbing it into his body. Influenced by the cruel law of the jungle, Ming Hai gradually became indifferent to life and apathetic. His only concern is his son Ming Zhao.

"The Luo family is the protagonist of this world. They won't die on the way to escape. With the Luo family's care, Ming Zhao will definitely survive, but his life will probably not be very good!"

Minghai thought secretly.

According to "Devouring the Starry Sky", before Luo Feng's rise, the Luo family was not well off, so Ming Zhao, who was with them, could not have lived a good life either.

As for warriors, that is a talent that only a few humans have, so forget about it.

Ming Zhao's physical fitness was similar to his, and his talent as a warrior was very poor. Ming Hai saw this when they were hiding from the ferocious beasts in the shelter.

'簌簌'

At this moment, a rustling sound came from the tall grass in the distance.

"A ferocious beast is coming. This sound... should be a Red Flame Scaled Python!"

From the sound, Ming Hai quickly determined that the person coming was most likely a Red Flame Python, and he suddenly became excited.

Although the amount of high-quality blood has increased significantly, it is limited by the life level of the blood pool, and the toxins and corrosive power contained in it are still unable to harm the F-level high-level beast soldiers.

But the Red Flame Scaled Python is only an H-level beast soldier, and can be easily hunted and killed in the current Nether Sea!

A mere H-level beast soldier will not bring much benefit to the blood pool, but don't forget that the size of the blood pool is already infinitely close to the diameter of ten meters. It is possible that this Red Flame Python is the key to his breakthrough.

Sure enough, not long after, a python more than four meters long and half a meter thick, covered with red scales, emerged from the grass, spitting out a three-pronged tongue that was a foot long, and swam towards the blood pool.

One minute later.

'Sisi'

With a sharp and piercing snake sound, the huge python body fell into the pool of blood.

Sensing the crisis, the Red Flame Python struggled desperately in the blood, causing waves of blood.

Resistance is futile.

Ming Hai manipulated the blood with ease, carrying with him the sharp claws of a severely injured G-class beast soldier, and repeatedly sprinted into the belly of the Red Flame Python, cutting it open before it could escape from the blood pool.

As blood flowed out of the Red Flame Python's body, the blood in the blood pool flowed in and penetrated deep into the Red Flame Python's body. Powerful toxins and corrosion broke out, quickly paralyzing the nerves and corroding the body.

Soon, the Red Flame Python lost consciousness and its huge body sank to the bottom of the pool.

Under the corrosion and dissolution of the blood, the body of the Red Flame Python quickly disintegrated, turned into blood, and merged into the blood pool.

When almost all the corpses were devoured and dissolved, the diameter of the blood pool finally reached ten meters.

'boom'

The critical point was broken, and an indescribable feeling surged into Minghai's heart.

Every drop of blood sends him a message, a narration from the distant bloodline, a cheer from the depths of life.

Promoted!
His bloodline transformed, the essence of life began to leap, and the most miraculous phenomenon in the universe was born in countless blood.

Strands of invisible aura that exudes coldness and murderousness were born from billions of blood. It is endless and fills every drop of blood. It even passes through the blood and floats above the blood pool.

An ancient, profound message surged into his heart in a way that Minghai could understand.

'Bloodline evolution, life essence leap'

"The blood can quickly corrode and dissolve any beast-soldier-level beasts or warrior-level human warriors."

'When the evil spirit is first formed, it can affect the consciousness of life. The effect depends on the will of the target.'

"I've finally been promoted. From now on, killing Beast Soldier-level beasts, whether they're H-level, G-level, or even F-level, will be as easy as breathing. I no longer have to wait for injured beasts or bother setting traps!"

After digesting this information, Minghai was ecstatic.

PS: The most difficult time is over, and the pace will be greatly accelerated later!
