Devouring the Stars: Blood Sea Demon Lord

Chapter 19 The Essence of Life and the Levels of Life

"The next step to advancement is for the blood lake to reach a diameter of one kilometer."

"After promotion, bloodline is enhanced, life essence reaches the star level, blood can quickly corrode and melt all creatures below the planetary level, and evil spirit can affect all creatures below the planetary level."

'The Birth of the Blood Demon'

After accepting the inheritance information deep in his blood, Ming Hai was happy at first, but soon felt confused.

With this promotion, the bloodline has evolved, the life essence has leaped to the planetary level, and the blood can quickly corrode and dissolve all beast general-level ferocious beasts or war general-level human warriors, and the power of the evil spirit has been increased to a higher level.

Although he was happy, he did not find it strange. After all, he had known it in advance the last time the blood lake expanded to a diameter of ten meters.

It is not surprising that the inheritance information mentioned that after the next promotion, the bloodline will be further improved, the life essence will reach the stellar level, and the blood can quickly corrode and dissolve all creatures below the planetary level.

But Ming Hai was a little confused about the hint of 'the birth of the blood demon'.

"The birth of the Blood Demon's true self? The Blood Demon's true self? The true self?"

In his mind, Minghai repeated it over and over again.

"Why is it called 'the deity'? Isn't the Blood Lake the deity?"

His mind was full of doubts.

After he used the secret innate skill of 'Transform into a Sea of ​​Blood' that he didn't know where he got it from, he always thought that the blood pool or blood lake, or even a blood sea in the future, was his own body.

Now it seems that something is not right?

“Could it be…?”

Minghai thought of a possibility.

"The Blood Lake is just an egg, and the birth of the Blood Demon is like an egg hatching a chicken. The purpose is to give birth to a chicken from the Blood Lake? The egg is not me, the chicken is?"

"That's not right. I can clearly sense every drop of blood in the blood lake and control it freely like my hands and feet. If this isn't a body, what is it?"

Ming Hai pondered deeply and said:

"Since the Blood Lake is my body, then it is naturally me. How can there be another 'original body'?"

"But if the blood pool is my body, then what is the so-called 'Blood Demon'? How is it different from a clone? And what is its relationship to the blood pool?"

For a moment, the Underworld Sea was full of questions.

"That's it!"

After thinking for a long time without any clue, Ming Hai gave up thinking and thought to himself:
"When the blood lake expands to a diameter of one kilometer, there will definitely be more information about blood inheritance. Then we will know what is going on!"

He once guessed that his blood and water life form that could continue to expand was the same or similar to the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds who had a sea of ​​​​the underworld with a diameter of 12 light years as recorded in the book "Devouring the Starry Sky".

After all, in terms of life form, he is too similar to the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.

Now it seems that the two are completely different.

What is condensed from the Nether Sea is just a clone. It has no special meaning except that it can replace the real body of the Lord of the Nine Nethers and walk freely outside the Nether Sea. Once it falls, the real body can be condensed again at any time.

But the 'Blood Demon' that was condensed from his own blood lake, no, was born from it, was his true self, and was fundamentally different from the clone in the Nether Sea.

The specific situation depends on what the inheritance information deep in the blood says.

"Am I at planetary level now?"

Looking back at the present moment, Ming Hai thought to himself, remembering the hint in the inheritance information.

The inherited information told him that his bloodline had evolved to the next stage, and his life essence had leaped to the planetary level.

Doesn’t that mean that I have reached planetary level?

"No, the Blood Lake didn't produce a genetic star core, so it's not planetary level. I don't even have genetic force, so how can I be considered planetary level? I'm afraid I'm not even at the apprentice level!"

The next moment, Ming Hai rejected this idea.

In the world of "Devouring the Stars", there are strict standards for life forms. Any planetary level, regardless of race, has a genetic star core.

The blood pool is also a life form in this world. Although it is a bit weird and different from any life form known in the primitive universe, the basic life form classification is definitely the same as other life forms.

The absence of a genetic star core only means that the blood pool is not planetary level.

In fact, because Minghai couldn't sense the presence of the genetic force, it was most likely not even an apprentice-level life form. "Perhaps I misunderstood? The planetary level in the inherited information refers to the essence of life, not the level of life!"

After pondering for a while, Minghai guessed.

The essence of life and the level of life can be seen as the difference between potential and actual strength.

For example, there is a saying that the human race in this world has ten peak bloodlines.

The tribe with the most pinnacle bloodline can become domain lords when they reach adulthood.

Therefore, the life essence of these ethnic groups is Domain Lord, which means that they are Domain Lord lives and can become Domain Lords without practicing.

On the contrary, people of the tenth bloodline, such as the people on Earth, will not even be apprentices after they reach adulthood if they do not actively practice. This shows that their life essence is so low that they are not even as good as apprentices.

The life level refers to the current state of life, such as apprentice level, planetary level, stellar level, cosmic level, domain master level...

"This should be!"

Minghai figured it out.

The essence of life represents the lowest achievement of a certain life, and the level of life is the actual achievement or realm!

There is no necessary connection between the two.

But obviously, the higher the essence of life, the easier it is to elevate the level of life, and vice versa.

"So, I'm just a newborn now? As long as I grow normally, without any training, I can become a planetary-level being with a lifespan of 1000 years?"

Minghai thought a little strangely.

At present, it seems that this is the only explanation that makes sense.

But what about the Blood Demon himself?

Well, there are still many things I don’t understand.

It seems that if I want to fully understand my own situation, I have to wait until the next time my life essence is promoted and find the answer from the inherited information.

"Increase the diameter of the blood lake to one kilometer as soon as possible to further evolve and advance!"

Thinking of the next stage of life, the Underworld Sea is filled with desire.

He had a guess.

No matter what the 'blood demon' is, there is a high probability that it can leave the blood pool and walk freely outside!
For Minghai, who has been staying at home for more than 20 years, the attraction of walking freely is immense.

'Om'

The hundred-meter-long blood lake flashed with circles of strange blood light. Along with the appearance of the strange blood light, countless fragrant scents emerged from all directions.

500 meters, 600 meters...

In the end, the aroma spread as far as three kilometers!

After being promoted to planetary-level life, the diffusion distance of this fragrance that attracts ferocious beasts is greatly increased.

Correspondingly, the "visual" range of the Nether Sea has also expanded from more than 500 meters to 3 kilometers.

"There are so many ferocious beasts out there!"

In his mind's 'vision', Ming Hai discovered that within a radius of three kilometers, there were hundreds of beast-soldier-level ferocious beasts and more than a dozen beast-general-level ferocious beasts.

"Come on, everyone!"

Staring at the ferocious beasts that immediately rushed towards the blood pool after smelling the fragrance, Ming Hai was in a good mood. He licked his tongue in his mind and muttered to himself:

"Come into my pot, the beautiful pool of blood welcomes you all!"

The blood in the blood pool now has a qualitative change in the intensity of toxins and corrosive power, and can quickly corrode and dissolve all beast general-level beasts!

With the added power of evil spirit, if he faces a beast general-level beast again, it will be reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye, just like when he faced a beast soldier-level beast before.

The blood was mobilized and quickly receded at the edge of the blood lake, revealing a slope that was five or six meters wide and two or three meters deep, circling the blood lake.

Customers need seats when they eat, right?
The vacated slope is the seat prepared by Minghai for these ferocious beasts!
Serve customers!
