Swallowing the Stars: You Can't Escape, Mountain Dweller

Chapter 298 Blood Crystal and Golden Light

With a bang.

Bai Yang watched as Ling Miru fell heavily to the ground, her whole body trembling slightly from the pain.

Although her outer coat was torn, fortunately she was wearing a white cotton coat underneath.

At this point, she was completely powerless to resist.

Her face was blank; she had given up completely.

"Just kill me."

Do you have Blood Crystal?

Upon hearing this, Ling Miru suddenly raised her head and looked at Bai Yang in disbelief.

"I have it, but if I give it to you, will you let me go?"

"sure."

Bai Yang didn't care.

Ling Mi bit her lip lightly, though she was somewhat skeptical, but at this point she had no choice but to try anything.

She reached into her robes, took out a spatial bracelet, erased her mental imprint, and threw it toward Bai Yang.

"In the red wooden box."

Bai Yang used his mental power to stay in the air and probed into the air with his spiritual power.

Inside, there were indeed a large amount of valuables; a red wooden box wrapped in a piece of yellow cloth was carefully stored away.

On a whim, he took out the wooden box, opened it, and took a look.

Three long, triangular prism-shaped crystals, entirely blood red, were placed inside.

They give the feeling of a heartbeat, releasing a subtle fluctuation in waves.

Bai Yang knew without even touching it that it was definitely genuine.

Without any hesitation, he put the entire bracelet into his ring, and also accepted the other valuables inside.

Bai Yang took one last look at Ling Miru. Although she was seriously injured, as long as the core of a Domain Lord-level expert was intact, that was all that mattered.

He'll be fine after a day or two of rest; he's too lazy to kill her since they have no grudge against each other.

Bai Yang turned around abruptly, and in a flash, he disappeared.

Ling Miru was terrified and immediately went on high alert. She waited for three or four minutes, but Bai Yang did not "silence" her.

Only then did I truly believe that the other person had left.

Bai Yang, however, had already returned to the bandits' secret camp aboard the Bernard.

To avoid encountering the same bad luck as Luo Feng, he had deliberately used the abilities of the monster's body beforehand.

He slightly altered his face shape and wasn't afraid of being recognized at all.

"I've got the Blood Crystal. Let's try it out right away."

He sat cross-legged on the flattest spot in the cave, and with a light stroke of his finger on his right wrist, drew a bloody gash.

Then they attached a beautiful, sparkling blood crystal to it.

The moment his blood touched the Blood Crystal, an invisible, strange energy burst forth from it.

It was as if a long-suppressed, ferocious beast had suddenly rushed into his body. Bai Yang's expression changed, and his face became ferocious and twisted.

pain!

The pain was indescribable!

Immediately afterwards, an incomparably fierce killing intent descended and directly merged into his sea of ​​consciousness.

kill!kill!kill!

An endless, brutal, and tyrannical will began to clash with his will time and time again.

Bai Yang was aware of his own spiritual will, although he could not reach the level of being extraordinary.

But he didn't really care about a mere Blood Crystal.

At this moment, the seven-colored placenta in his mind also emitted a light, helping him stabilize his state.

After enduring the initial shock, he gradually accepted the will within the Blood Crystal.

The true, strange power within the Blood Crystal began to erupt, releasing wisps of red threads that then frantically surged into his body.

His entire body trembled involuntarily.

The muscles throughout the body twitched involuntarily, and the skin sometimes congealed into a crust, and sometimes cracked and bled.

His arms swelled violently, and the veins would sometimes become completely transparent, like transparent crystals, and sometimes turn pure gold, while his muscles were constantly changing.

He knew that changes would occur deep within every cell of his body, bones, muscles, and internal organs.

But isn't this kind of physical modification and torment a bit too extreme?

It's doubtful that any planetary-level human could withstand such physical torment.

"Can this approach really find the optimal solution for physical evolution?"

Or is it simply a transformation into the physical body of the Golden Beast God?

Inside the World Ring, the monster's clone suddenly stepped out and sat down opposite the main body.

While all the clones can feel mental pain, they cannot feel physical pain.

So he's doing pretty well right now.

The two bodies were almost identical. The monster clone used its abilities to try to simulate the genetic changes that occurred after the original body absorbed the Blood Crystal.

An hour later, the changes in the main body finally ended.

The mental pressure on Bai Yang also completely disappeared.

The strange clone on the other side said:

"The changes in the blood and genes are not too significant yet."

Adjusting in this direction will result in almost no change in strength.

Bai Yang nodded, not particularly surprised.

"There is only one right now. It may take fusing three together to see a significant change after becoming a Blood Warrior."

More likely, this change also involves the soul and will, making simple physical genetic adjustments largely meaningless.

"Maybe, but look at this."

The monster's clone suddenly began to transform in parts, and a dragon tail extended from behind it.

Bai Yang himself looked intently and understood what he meant.

The dragon tail of that strange clone underwent some kind of mutation after it practiced the "Six Styles," which was actually the second half of the Dragon Battle Manual.

Bai Yang never understood this change, let alone could replicate it.

Now, the monster's clone is mimicking the changes in the original body, with subtle genetic adjustments made to its entire body compared to before.

But the tail remained completely unaffected.

The clone can be freely controlled; it is still absolutely a part of the body.

However, the genes of this dragon's tail cannot be changed at all.

"The Beast God of Gold is the Lord of the Universe, and the Lord of Ten Thousand Dragons is also the Lord of the Universe."

The two have different paths, and it's possible that one doesn't want the other to change.

Bai Yang didn't dwell on the matter and walked out of the cave.

It flew to a deserted desert and began testing the changes in its main body.

He stood on the ground and threw a powerful punch into the air.

Instantly, the surrounding air began to whistle rapidly, leaving a huge vacuum in the air.

Bai Yang frowned slightly, knowing that the power of his punch was less than 10% stronger than before the fusion.

This result is far from what is expected under normal circumstances, when the attack power is 20-30% stronger.

He glanced at the character "Dragon" within his body, which was still radiating golden light, and quickly felt relieved.

"Ling Miru, who has absorbed the Blood Crystal, is far inferior to me in terms of physical strength and power."

Wasn't this something we already knew?

The golden light that only I possess is stronger than the Blood Crystal that everyone else might obtain; this is a good thing.

Then he began to activate the unknown power within the Blood Crystal, and seemingly simple yet incredibly profound blood-red runes appeared on his chest.

He began to sit cross-legged, sensing the fluctuations of various laws.

"The aid of the Law Sensing technique is effective!"
