Chapter 283

Boom!

The people hiding in the gaps of the scales were shaken to the point of staggering. They had no choice but to use the illusory talisman chains to connect with each other. Before they could stabilize their bodies, the surroundings suddenly darkened. A thick fog appeared and covered everyone's eyes. Li Ran said in a low voice, "Hold on … we'll wait!"

No one dared to move, no one dared to go out and observe. The wind was like a knife. No one knew how fast the giant beast was to be able to make the wind so fierce. Everyone had no choice but to use their sacrificial treasures to defend themselves. Fortunately, they were in the gaps of the scales. If they were on the surface, they would have been blown away.

As the wind grew stronger, the people's illusory talisman chains were unable to control it. Guo Shier raised his hand and shot out a crescent blade, which directly made a hole in the scales.

The crescent blade turned into a drill and cut through the side of the scales, instantly drilling in. Guo Shier said happily, "I thought it would be very hard. I didn't expect it to be so loose. Let's go in!" Everyone started to make their own holes. They all had strong martial arts and terrifying sacrificial treasures. It was too easy for them to make a hole.

Soon, everyone gathered inside the scales. They worked together to make a hall with a circumference of a hundred meters. Khalchi said, "I thought it would be very difficult. I didn't expect this scale to be so weak."

The scales were actually as hard as steel and very tough. If it wasn't for the sharp sacrificial treasures, it would not be easy to penetrate it. It was only because they were skilled that they could penetrate it so easily.

But it was very difficult to attack further. After about a few hundred meters, whether it was Guo Shier's crescent blade or the other people's sacrificial treasures, they could not go down quickly. The toughness of the scales was getting stronger and stronger. Guo Shier found that he could not go more than a few meters in ten minutes. He knew that the crescent blade would not be able to penetrate the scales.

Qi Wuzhen glanced at it and flicked his finger. A ball of flame fell, and with a sizzling sound, the tough scales turned into ashes layer by layer. "Ah, that's a good idea!" Guo Shier praised.

Ever since they had entered this world and discovered this gigantic beast, everyone had been a little scared. They did not dare to act presumptuously and only wanted to leave as soon as possible. Unexpectedly, Qi Wuzhen's flame had restored everyone's confidence. This gigantic beast did not seem to be as scary as it used to be.

Everyone gradually understood that they were so insignificant that the giant beast could completely ignore them. Even if the giant beast wanted to attack them, it might not be able to detect them. According to the scale of this giant beast, they were not even specks of dust.

No creature would be interested in dust, even if it was a relatively powerful dust.

As the flames burned, they quickly burned through the scales. This piece of scale armor was thick enough, at least a thousand meters long. Looking at the bottomless hole, Qi Wuzhen couldn't help but shake her head and say, "It's impossible to fight such a giant beast. Even if we have the ability to turn the world upside down, it's still very difficult to fight such a giant beast."

Guo Shier said, "No matter what kind of creature it is … When it reaches a certain size, it will be invincible."

"Let's get some blood out," Li Ran said.

"Let me try!" Guo Shier said excitedly. With that, the moonblade flew into the deep hole. In an instant, it passed through the scales and directly cut into the giant beast's flesh. Without the protection of the scales, the flesh could not withstand the moonblade's cutting no matter how tough it was. Blood suddenly gushed out, as if an oil well had been drilled.

The hole was not big, only about two meters in diameter, but there was a lot of blood gushing out. Almost in an instant, it overflowed and sprayed on the top of the hole, hitting the top of the hole. "Let's take turns collecting it," Li Ran said.

Guo Shier put away the moonblade and a talisman bottle appeared in his hand. He cast a spell and the blood was poured into the talisman bottle. This was a large talisman bottle that could hold several tons of liquid. There was no time to purify the blood, so using the talisman bottle was the fastest way. The nine of them started to collect the blood at the same time.

Ezek and Mei Li were rather special. Both of them were prostrating on the ground, revealing their original bodies and opening their mouths to suck the blood.

After a while, the nine of them were dumbfounded. The amount of blood was too large. It was impossible for them to collect it all. Moreover, the speed at which it gushed out was too fast. Li Ran frowned slightly and continued to form incantations. Runes descended one after another, quickly suppressing the spurting blood and sealing the hole that was spewing out blood.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did Li Ran break a seal, and a stream of blood as thick as a bucket spurted out. This amount of blood was enough for the nine of them.

Li Ran controlled the speed of the blood flow so that everyone could collect the blood. They all knew that this amount of blood was nothing to the giant beast. It might not even be aware that it was losing blood.

Everyone knew the use of the Blood Essence Bead, especially when it was used to refine the Blood Rune Pill. The Blood Essence Bead, which was filled with vitality, was the main ingredient. In the Talisman World, collecting blood to refine Blood Essence Beads was a necessary job when hunting high-level Mutated Rune Beasts and Mutated Rune Beasts. It was a skill that every profession had to possess.

Everyone was trying their best to collect the blood. Everyone had different methods. Guo Shier used five large talisman bottles to collect the blood. The talisman bottles were quickly stored in the altar. A Handsome Old Man lifted the talisman bottles and sent them out at a fast speed. Ezekiel and Mei Li drank it directly. They opened their mouths wide and drank it. At first, they swallowed it into their stomachs. Soon, they stored the blood in their bodies.

The most powerful ones were Li Ran and Qi Wuzhen. They casually grabbed the blood and condensed it into a Blood Essence Bead. Each bead was the size of a fist. They grabbed it and stored it quickly.

The others were a bit slower. Especially Khalchi, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. Of course, he knew that this was a rare opportunity. Although there were also large talisman bottles, there were only a few of them. They were filled right from the start. He did not have the help of a Guardian Spirit, so he could only refine the blood at the last minute. However, he did not have the superb methods of Li Ran and Qi Wuzhen, so his speed was a lot slower.

Guo Shier smiled and said, "This can be considered a gift for us … We didn't come here for nothing." He could already feel the extremely strong vitality of the blood. No wonder this thing could grow to such a large size.

Li Ran said, "Our luck is not bad this time. I thought we came to a small world without life. I did not expect that there would be such an abnormal giant beast. Hehe, we've profited." He had never seen a creature of this level even in the big world. Perhaps only the legendary Star Beasts had this kind of terrifying strength and size. He did not need to test it. He knew that this giant beast's strength must have reached an unparalleled level.

It was like an ant that could lift a weight several times its own body weight. However, in the eyes of humans, this kind of weight was incomparably insignificant and not even worth mentioning. This was the same situation as Li Ran's group. They were like ants. Although they grasped mysterious talismans and soul power, compared to absolute strength, it was still far from enough.

Li Ran's group could make a few small movements, but they definitely could not alarm the giant beast. Of course, even if they wanted to alarm it, it would be very difficult. Unless they used an ultimate move like the Fiery Sacrifice to the Heavens Burial, they would not be able to alarm this kind of giant beast. Experts who had reached the peak of their profession were not idiots. They would never do something so stupid as to alarm the giant beast again.

Everyone's hands and feet were continuously collecting the blood. At this moment, Li Ran let out a cry of surprise, "Yi, what is this thing?" The gushing blood suddenly slowed down and immediately stopped. Below the seal, a bright red thing blocked the blood's exit, blocking the blood's passage.

Qi Wuzhen reached out his hand to grab the air, and a bright red block the size of a human was forcefully dragged out. In a flash, it pounced towards Qi Wuzhen.

"Freeze!"

A talisman fell, and the bright red block was frozen in the air. Only then did everyone carefully examine it.

The thing was in the shape of an egg suspended in the air. It was the size of an ordinary person, and it was constantly wriggling. No one could guess what it was, but it had a faint fishy smell. It should be something that lived in the blood. After observing for a while, Guo Shier said, "Who cares what it is. Let me refine it first!"

A talisman flew out and quickly wrapped around the bright red block. A moment later, it was purified into a fist-sized Blood Essence Bead. Guo Shier reached out and grabbed it. He couldn't help but say, "So beautiful … Uh, this Blood Essence Bead is a little different!"

Li Ran said, "Let me see."

Guo Shier threw it to him. Li Ran caught it and examined it. This was a ruby-like Blood Essence Bead. A halo circulated around it. It was extraordinary. He exclaimed, "This is a top-grade Blood Essence Bead! Good stuff! "Everyone took turns to examine it, praising it profusely.

Here it comes again!

This strange thing kept trying to block the spurting wound. Everyone already knew that this was a good thing. How could they let it go? They took turns to collect it. In a few days, everyone had a bountiful harvest.

On the fourth day, Li Ran said, "Enough. We don't have time to continue collecting. It's about time to leave."

Everyone stopped. Soon, the spurting wound was blocked by the bright red block. It gradually coagulated, and the color quickly turned dark brown. Guo Shier laughed, "What a pity … If we had gone deep into the beast's body, we might have found other good things."

Zhen Wuji shook his head, "It's not difficult to go deep, but … the beast's body probably has a very powerful defense."

Guo Shier pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. It should be known that every living creature had its own defense system. It was not obvious if the creature was small in size, but when the body size reached the size of the beast, the defense system in its body would be terrifyingly strong. Although Guo Shier and the others were top-level professionals, compared to the beast, they were like bacteria and dust. Once they entered the beast's body, they would definitely trigger a counterattack from the body's defense system. That was not a fun thing to do.

Aizec and Mei Li looked at each other with a little regret. The two of them had swallowed countless beasts' blood, but not much blood had actually entered their stomachs. Most of the blood had been stored in their respective internal spaces. They would only eat it when they needed it. Even though they had only swallowed a small amount of blood, the two of them had a feeling of bloating. Their bodies had undergone some changes. Their blood had become more vigorous, and their vitality had also been improved. They both had a hint of advancement.

Such a harvest was unbelievable to the two of them. It could be said that no one present had gained as much as they did. This extremely huge amount of life energy had entered their bodies, directly changing their physique and vitality. Their strength had been greatly improved. At present, there was still a certain limit to the improvement. In the future, it would be completely different. Once the two of them had absorbed all the beasts' blood, they might really be able to advance.
