Book 6: Chapter 232: Finger (2)
Dyon frowned. ‘If I have the blood anyway, why would I need the room? Explain clearly.’ Dyon lost patience with the spirit. Since it didn’t show him any respect, he was disinclined to deal with it.
‘In order to improve a beast’s blood, you need blood essence, not regular blood. However, it’s impossible to receive blood essence without the creature being willful. How could someone as weak as you force a Dragon to willingly give you its blood essence?’ The spirit snorted with disdain.
‘You mean?’
‘The Origin Beast Room only needs regular blood, not blood essence.’
Dyon was shocked. Using normal blood to upgrade your bloodline? That was even more heaven defying that the Weapon Devouring Room. What the hell was this tower?!
‘Wait, does this work for humans too?’
Although it was a bit sadistic and evil to think about draining human beings for the sake of his and his allies’ bloodlines, Dyon wasn’t the type of person to feel morally confused when it came to dealing with his enemies.
For example, he wouldn’t hesitate to drain Anak of all of his blood. If his Demon Generals gained a trace of Angel blood like those of the Emperor Giant Clan, their power would raise to an entirely new level.
‘You don’t have high enough floor access to do this with humans.’ The spirit said coldly.
‘What the hell? What’s the difference between beasts and humans?’
‘If you didn’t think there was a difference, why did you bother to ask?’ The spirit clearly wasn’t giving Dyon any leeway. ‘Beasts are inherently more in tune with the heavens. This is why they’re chosen to represent various wills, like Dragon with sovereign will and Celestial Hamsters with time will.
‘Because they’re more favored by the universe, it’s relatively easier for them to retrace their blood to its origins. This is why, although it’s rare, you hear of snakes becoming dragons, but you don’t randomly hear of normal humans becoming angels. There is a much, much, much stronger barrier for humans as compared to beasts.’
Dyon sighed. Unfortunately, this was yet another airtight explanation by the tower spirit. Clearly, although it was hateful, it followed the rules. It wouldn’t make things difficult for Dyon on purpose.
‘Wait.’ Dyon suddenly paused. ‘You said I don’t have high enough access yet, does that mean there will be a day I do?’
‘Let’s just say I don’t have much hope in you.’ With those final words, the tower spirit disappeared, leaving Dyon by himself.
After looking around, Dyon could only sigh. Although he had expected it, after confirming that both Evangeline and Little Rose had disappeared, he felt odd.
At that moment, Dyon heard a knock come from the front door.
‘Who could possible be knocking the door of a Vice Master? Could it be Violet again?’ Dyon felt a shiver go down his spine. He really didn’t want to deal with that woman again.
When Dyon reached the door and opened it, he was pleasantly surprised to find that it wasn’t Violet, but Donari.
“What’re you doing here?” Dyon asked in surprise. Although Donari’s familial status was high, he was still only an inner disciple. It was quite rare for them to be allowed to come to the core of the sect like this.
“You are here!” Donari said, brushing past and ignoring Dyon’s confusion.
“Why wouldn’t I be here?”
“No one has heard anything from you in more than two weeks. You didn’t show up after the valley closed even after we all waited hours for you. Plus, the official disciple trials are beginning soon. They decided to give us a month after the valley’s opening to readjust ourselves and absorb our gains, so there’s only about two weeks left.”
“Wait for hours? Why would you do that?” Dyon laughed, but inwardly, he was sneering. The reason was obvious.
Donari shrugged, completely oblivious. “I was pissed off too, I have better things to do than wait around for you. Why’re you so important?”
Donari stopped looking around and turned back to Dyon, scanning him from head to toe almost as though he was trying to figure something out. His gut feeling was telling him that there was something odd going on in the quadrant, but he had no idea what it was.
He had almost failed in resonating with his legacy in time because his soul was so heavily damaged. The fact he just barely made it was a miracle, but at the same time, his anger toward his family and this Soul Rend Quadrant grew even more after that experience.
He felt like he should have been able to walk around in the core valley along with all the other geniuses, but he was stuck in the inner valley. He hated that sense of inferiority.
“How’s Virvor?” Dyon suddenly asked.
“Him? He didn’t come back either. We assumed he was with you.”
Dyon breathed out. It seemed Virvor had listened to him. That was good. If he came back, he would definitely be taken away. Since Evangeline wasn’t involved in the way he thought she was, he decided to continue with his original plan. He couldn’t just leave things as they were. Not only was that unfair to those who were suffering, it was also unfair his master and her clan. They had a legacy built here and it was being destroyed by greed.
