Wizard Immortal

Chapter 537 Mist and Dark Area

Something's not right.

Standing still, on the distant land, Adir's heart skipped a beat.

At this point, more than half a day had passed since the bloodline contract was signed.

Beside her, Tarina had awakened from her coma, though she was still somewhat weak, and lay quietly in Sirulia's arms, a blush on her beautiful face.

However, this is not due to shyness, but rather the result of a strong infusion of life force.

Like a person who has been starving for countless years suddenly encountering a table full of delicious food, at the moment of signing the contract with Adir, Tarina's physique seemed to be completely activated, and a unique transformation was taking place, causing the life force in Adir's body to be continuously drawn out. The terrifying speed of this was so great that even Adir could not ignore it.

In just half a day, Adir sensed that he had lost nearly half of his life force.

If this portion of life force were converted into consumption, it would be enough for Adir to sustain himself for at least three or four years.

In other words, in just half a day, Adir lost three or four years of his lifespan.

In fact, this is just the beginning.

Standing still, following the connection in his heart, Adir could clearly feel the changes within himself.

As time passed, Tarina's rate of absorbing life force not only did not slow down at all, but continued to accelerate, reaching an alarming level.

Such terrifying energy expenditure would likely have overwhelmed anyone else by now.

Even a level three being, faced with such a terrifying rate of consumption, simply cannot last long. In just a few years, they will be drained of their life force and die.

The reason Adir was able to remain calm was because this was just an avatar of his. Even if it perished, it wouldn't affect his main body. Therefore, he remained composed and didn't go berserk or attack Tarina.

"However, with such a terrifying rate of consumption, it's no wonder that the empire behind her abandoned her."

In the shadows, Adir shook his head as he looked at the girl.

He had been wondering to himself how a girl with such a physique and talent could have fallen to such a state.

The faster the soul power grows, the higher the upper limit of the contracted beast's growth will be. There's no reason why the empire behind the girl wouldn't see this.

However, it now seems that the empire behind the girl probably made many attempts, but in the end, it could not withstand such terrifying consumption and was forced to abandon the girl and seal her physique.

Thinking of this, he shook his head inwardly, then closed his eyes and quietly felt the pulse of soul power within his body.

Within his body, two soul forces were clashing against each other. Tarina's soul force had gained an absolute advantage, completely suppressing Seria's soul force and squeezing it into a small corner.

Carefully sensing the reactions, Adir gradually fell into deep thought.

"When two different soul forces collide, they will clash with each other. In the end, the stronger force will drive out the weaker force. They can neither coexist nor be absorbed at the same time."

"The reason for this is that the power of the soul is not pure. The soul power generated by different people will each carry the imprint of its master, and different imprints repel each other, so they cannot be absorbed at the same time."

"Forcibly absorbing it will not only bring no benefits, but will also cause discomfort to the soul imprint and lead to various consequences."

"If that's the case, then if we could find a way to remove the excess imprints contained within the soul power and completely purify it, wouldn't it be possible to absorb the soul power of different masters?"

Standing still, this thought flashed through Adir's mind.

That is indeed a possible approach.

For Adir, the imprint contained in the soul power was like an unnecessary impurity, making it much more difficult to absorb the soul power.

If that's the case, if we find a way to separate these impurities and obtain pure soul power, wouldn't it be possible to absorb the soul power from different people?

"However, it is also very difficult to do this."

In the blink of an eye, Adir frowned to himself again.

Things at the soul level are always very troublesome, and even a fourth-level being doesn't know much about this level.

This level was so profound and mysterious that even Adir frowned, unable to find many solutions for the time being.

"We can only try it slowly."

Adir shook his head inwardly, thinking to himself.

Having experienced many worlds, he knew a great many secret texts and techniques in his mind, including many related to the soul.

He has plenty of time in this world; he can try them one by one. Maybe he'll find a way to solve this problem.

Of course, if it really can't be solved, it's okay.

After all, he came to this world to practice the path of bloodline. Solving the problem of soul power could certainly open another door for him, but even if he couldn't solve it, it wouldn't be a great loss for him.

"At least for now, there is a new problem to solve."

Feeling the life force draining from his body, he got up from the ground, looked at Sirria and Tarina in front of him, and thought calmly.

·······························································

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, several months have passed.

boom! !

A loud crash came from afar. On a patch of black earth, a black demonic bull, several meters tall, lay flat on the ground with a deep knife scar on its forehead.

Looking at the fallen demon bull before him, Silria breathed a sigh of relief: "With this one, that should be enough for this month."

He sheathed his longsword, stepped forward, lifted the black demon bull with one hand, and carried it away from where he stood.

Accompanied by a huge golden lion, he slowly walked into the distance and gradually came to a stream.

Upon arriving here, he put down the black demon bull he was carrying and looked ahead.

There, a crimson behemoth, hundreds of meters tall, lay there with its eyes closed, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.

With each breath of the behemoth, tiny glimmers of light flickered. These were elemental particles contained in the air, which were instinctively drawn to the behemoth as it breathed, accelerating the growth of its power.

As if sensing the arrival of Sirulia, Adir opened his eyes and looked at the black demon bull in front of him.

The black demon bull before them was not weak. It had only fallen into a coma after being struck by Xirulia, and was still breathing.

As Adir's gaze fell upon him, the flesh and blood of the black demon bull rapidly melted away. Everything, including the bones of the black demon bull, dissolved quickly, turning into pure blood energy and bloodline power, which Adir swallowed in one gulp.

"At least we've made up for some of it..."

After swallowing the black demon bull whole, Adir felt the surge of blood energy within his body and gently exhaled.

Despite not caring much about this body, Adir still took some countermeasures after Tarina had taken away so much of his life force.

As a wizard, Adir knew quite a bit about methods to replenish life force. Furthermore, there were many records of this in the bloodline codex.

Therefore, Adir quickly returned to his old ways: eating.

However, compared to before, this time Adir had two more followers by his side, so he didn't have to lift a finger and had the food delivered automatically.

"Another calamity beast approaching the fifth rank."

After swallowing the flesh and blood in one gulp, Adir looked at the remaining pelt and asked curiously, "Do you have so many calamity beasts here?"

"More than just many." In response to Adir's doubts, Sirria gave a wry smile: "The entire world is almost shrouded in dark mist, and all the creatures within it can be considered calamity beasts."

"These calamity beasts have an astonishing reproductive capacity. In addition, after being shrouded in mist for a long time, ordinary life forms are also corrupted by the calamity beasts of the city. So over the years, they have accumulated to a terrifying number."

"That's good news."

Listening to Sirulia's words, Adir nodded to himself.

The most important aspect of practicing the path of bloodline is to consume plenty of blood-based foods and various bloodlines.

Without sufficient blood and a strong bloodline, the path of bloodline cannot be followed at all.

And these things can be provided by the endless stream of monstrous beasts.

"It seems that the world energy used to search the world back then was not wasted."

With this thought in mind, Adir looked at Sirria in front of him and continued to ask other questions.

Although he had been in this world for more than half a year, he still knew very little about it because he had been transformed into a magical beast, and he needed to ask someone for advice.

During the conversation, many aspects of the world were revealed, including some basic knowledge and some secrets.

This world consists of two parts: the Dark Zone and the Normal Zone. The Dark Zone is where the Calamity Beasts live.

According to Sirulia, a mist pervades the dark area year-round, within which flows a unique and violent energy. If ordinary creatures come into contact with it for too long, they will be affected and slowly transformed into calamity beasts.

The reproductive capacity of the calamity beasts is astonishing, but due to the influence of their violent power, the offspring of those calamity beasts are often very unstable in form, prone to various mutations, and produce all sorts of freaks.

Some of the most powerful species among the calamity beasts, such as the five-legged demon wolf that Adir killed earlier, and the alien demon, are products of mutation.

Compared to the vast dark area, the normal area appears very small, and some areas are even getting smaller and smaller.

"Various monstrous beasts frequently attack the borders of the mainland."

Sitting on a rock in front of Adir, Sirria said, "The calamity beasts carry the power of mist. Once the number of calamity beasts in an area increases, it will attract mist and turn that area into a dark, demonized region."

"Therefore, on the mainland, in every country, the importance of exterminating the calamity beasts is always the top priority."
