Refining Blood Essence

Apart from being golden in color, the drop of blood that spilled out from Jather's heart also gave off a golden light that made the dark basement brightened with light.

It also emitted such an incredible aura that it made Alu and the others feel like tiny ants that could be trampled on. If it weren't for that basement being protected by a formation, the aura from that drop of golden blood would definitely be felt throughout the entire Holy Light continent.

Looking at the golden blood, Alu couldn't hide his urge to swallow it. Even his Phoenix soul looked like it was about to jump out of his body.

"This is the blood essence of a Sovereign stage expert."

Alu heard Charlie's voice as he stared at the essence of the blood.

"Sovereign Stage." Charlie's words took Alu completely by surprise.

"That's right. But the true power of this blood essence seemed to have filtered out beforehand.

You might not know, but the blood essence of a Sovereign stage expert, if it wasn't covered by a stronger force, only its existence would make the heavens tremble.

Since that blood essence could fall into the hands of someone from a small clan, I suspect that the owner of that blood essence may have deliberately spread his blood essence to help improve the talents of people in remote places. That person did it perhaps to find a suitable student."

"So that's how it is. But even if it's without its true strength, it's still enough to help me cross the line." Said Alu.

"Well, but you also have to be careful bro. Since this is a very powerful expert's blood essence, the owner of blood essence might be able to feel it if you take it." Charlie warned.

Charlie's warning made Alu immediately alert.

Since blood essence was so compatible with Jather, Jather might be a suitable candidate to become a blood essence possessor's disciple. If Alu took it, his actions would probably be considered to offend the owner of the blood essence.

Even if the blood essence possessors weren't angry that his only goal was to help others improve their talents, Alu still didn't want his existence to be known to the blood essence possessors.

"I hope my Phoenix soul can cover it." Said Alu.

There is no other choice. Matters related to Sovereign stage existence, Alu had no way of dealing with them. Even an expert at Old Hodus' level might not be able to do anything about it.

After Alu spoke to Charlie, a drop of gold colored blood floating in the air had arrived in front of Alu.

When Alu took a closer look at the blood essence, his desire to swallow it got so big that he forgot his previous worries.

"I'm going to refined it now." Said Alu.

In the Sleeping Dragon city, there was no safer place than this place to refine that blood essence. If Alu brought out the blood essence from that place, the experts residing in Sleeping Dragon City would definitely sense it.

After Alu's words, Alu immediately directed his hand towards the blood essence.

Whooss...

However, just as his hand was about to touch the blood essence, Alu felt an invisible force that immediately pushed his hand away.

"Damn, this actually still has the strength to resist." ALU grumbled when he saw that.

"But don't think you can run away from me."

After saying that, Alu then opened his mouth. And as soon as Alu opened his mouth, an invisible force suddenly burst out of Alu's mouth.

The Phoenix cry once again echoed from within Alu's body, and the moment that happened, the blood essence that had stopped in front of Alu, started moving again. This time it headed into Alu's mouth.

Gulp....

When the blood essence entered his mouth, Alu immediately swallowed the blood essence.

Buzzz...

Cry...

Gold colored light instantly emanated from Alu's body while Phoenix's cry echoed even louder right after Alu swallowed the blood essence.

Even though Charlie said the power of the blood essence had been filtered out, only after he had swallowed the blood essence did Alu realize how powerful it was. It might just be a drop of blood, but Alu felt as if what he was swallowing was an enormous mountain.

If an ordinary person ingested that blood essence, even if that person had cultivation at the Nirvana stage, their body would definitely explode immediately.

Sensing that blood essence power, Alu quickly used his Phoenix soul power to refine the blood essence.

Berkobar...

Flames of extremely hot black flames surged from within Alu's body, and in just an instant, it instantly engulfed the entire basement.

Old Hodus who saw that immediately grabbed his grandson who was in the distance before enveloping him in his spiritual energy.

"What a terrifying fire. I've never seen a fire like this. Even the flames belonging to the Fire Spirit clan are not as strong as these flames." Said Old Hodus when he saw the fire of Alu.

His old face was filled with surprise.

The phoenix cries that were constantly echoing also made Old Hodus feel uncomfortable.

While the flames outside took Old Hodus by surprise, the flames inside Alu's body were even more terrifying.

The blood essence that looked like it couldn't be destroyed quickly melted away as it burned by the Phoenix flames.

The melted blood essence then turned into boundless spiritual energy so that it looked like it could form a long river.

Inside Alu's body, there are three glass balls that emit a spiritual aura.

The three glass balls are actually Alu's spiritual world.

When a Spiritual Warrior manages to form a spiritual world, it means that they have entered the True Spiritual stage.

And people at the True Spiritual stage will form two more spiritual worlds before fusing them and turning them into a Yin-Yang symbol.

At this moment, spiritual energy from the melting blood essence flowed into the three Alu spiritual worlds.

The moment that happened, Alu's spiritual source also surged at an unimaginable speed.

It only took less than three breaths before Alu's spiritual source reached two thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine.

It may only take one more spiritual source before it reaches three thousand, but no matter how much spiritual energy enters Alu's spiritual world, Alu's spiritual source cannot actually increase any more.

Going beyond the limit is an act against heaven. Even if it was something that could still be done, it could not be done easily. It required such a huge price that even the ruler of a continent like Old Hodus could not afford it.

Luckily the blood essence of a Sovereign stage expert was truly something extremely extraordinary. It was something that even Earthly Nirvana stage experts would fight to the death just to fight over it.

Even though Alu's spiritual source had not yet increased, the spiritual energy from the blood essence was still very much so that Alu felt like it would not be used up even if he absorbed it for one day.

Of course Alu also knew that going beyond the limit was something a thousand times more difficult than breaking through to the Life and Death stage. It's not something that can be done in a short period of time. Hence, after his spiritual source reached its limit, Alu who was previously standing chose to sit cross-legged before continuing his cultivation.

About half an hour later, bit by bit, Alu's third thousand spiritual source also slowly formed.

The spiritual source has the shape of a sphere the size of an egg.

At this moment, even though Alu's three thousandth spiritual source had not yet fully formed, there were already quite a number of specks of spiritual light gathering in a circle.

"This boy." Old Hodus who was watching from the side couldn't help but open his mouth when he saw Alu starting to form the three thousandth spiritual source.

"However with this boy's talent, cultivating in the thousand islands region, even if it's in the Spiritual Academy, it will only waste his talent." Said Old Hodus as he shook his head.

"Oh, I suddenly remembered something."

While Old Hodus was lamenting Alu's talent, he suddenly thought of something.

"This should be for my clan members. But unfortunately no one is talented enough to go there. What if I send him to that place."

When Old Hodus said that, he took out something from his storage ring.

It is a token.

When Jather who was beside Old Hodus saw the token, she immediately changed her expression.

"Grandpa, you..."
