Su Ming thought about it for a long time but still could not figure out the use of the Scattering Dusts. The memories he obtained only contained the method to create the pill but not its effects.
When noon arrived and the sun was scorching hot, Su Ming hesitated for a moment before leaving the place.
He ran all the way back to the place where he created the pills with the little monkey. The little monkey did not stay there for long. It ran out the moment it returned.
Outside, Su Ming faced the mountain breeze and leaned against the wall. He held the green medicinal pill in his hands and started thinking hard.
'What is it for …? It doesn't work when taken orally, and it doesn't work when used externally either …' He frowned. It was not easy for him to create the pill but he could not figure out its effects. It made Su Ming feel as if he had wasted the past month.
He stared at the pill and gritted his teeth.
'Oh well, I'll have to try it myself! I'll swallow this pill and experience it for myself! ' Su Ming was decisive. Once he made up his mind, he did not hesitate and immediately put the Scattering Dusts in his mouth.
The pill melted in his mouth. A thick medicinal fragrance filled Su Ming's mouth. It turned into a wave of heat that flowed into his body but quickly dissipated. He did not feel much.
Su Ming was stunned. He quickly sat down and tried to gather his blood. However, it was no different than usual. He still felt as if he did not have enough blood.
He scratched his head hard, full of annoyance. This time, he really faintly felt that he had wasted more than a month in the past.
'Impossible! There must be some other effect!' Su Ming may be disappointed but he did not give up. However, no matter how much he thought about it, he could not figure it out. He could only let out a long sigh and laugh bitterly.
After a while, the red shadow that was the little monkey dashed towards Su Ming from the foot of the mountain. It jumped a few times before Su Ming and threw a large amount of fruits before leaving.
Su Ming sighed. His stomach was empty. He picked up the fruits and continued thinking as he ate them.
One, two, three …
Su Ming burped unknowingly and spat out the seeds. He touched his stomach and started thinking again. He looked at the remaining fruits and was about to put them away when he was stunned.
'Full? Huh?! ' Su Ming stared at the wild fruits and immediately counted the seeds he spat out. There were 15 of them.
He vaguely felt as if he had grasped onto something, and his heart pounded.
"I've liked to eat this wild fruit since I was young. Little Red often picked it for me over the years … But I don't like to eat too much at one time. In the past, I would feel half full after eating ten or nine of them …
But just now, I only ate fifteen, and I'm already full! Is my appetite too small? 'Or perhaps … it's related to something else!' Su Ming licked his lips. He remembered that he had swallowed a Scattering Dust previously.
'Could it be that this Scattering Dust is a medicinal pill that can replace food?' Su Ming was deep in thought.
"Or in other words, this Scattering Dust powder can increase the effects of other things!!" Su Ming's heart pounded against his chest. He took a deep breath. He had already racked his brains for the effects of the powder, but he had no clue. Now that he had grasped onto something, he did not care if it was ridiculous or not. He immediately crawled back into the small cave and quickly returned to the place where he quenched the herbs.
He remembered that he still had some Dark Dragon's Saliva left. It was a rare item, and he could not obtain it unless it rained. That was why he was reluctant to drink the remaining drops.
He quickly returned to the cave where he quenched the herbs. Su Ming took out the small bottle containing the Dark Dragon's Saliva from the basket. Once he opened it, he drank it without hesitation.
Su Ming was very familiar with Dark Dragon's Saliva. Once the drops entered his stomach, he immediately felt a cooling sensation spread through his body and slowly seeped into his blood.
Yet at that moment, the cooling sensation from the Dark Dragon's Saliva strangely increased. It seemed to have increased by 10%. It did not seem like much, but Su Ming could feel it clearly.
Once the cooling sensation fused with his blood, it turned into a boiling sensation. When he activated his blood, four blood veins appeared on his body, emitting a blood-red glow.
After a long while, Su Ming opened his eyes and let out a long breath. His eyes were filled with excitement.
'I knew it! The Scattering Dust powder has no effect on its own, but if it's taken with other items, then it can increase the effects it already has. It may seem simple, but it's actually something else! 'Su Ming was excited. The quenching Art had given him a lot of motivation.
'There are 15 small holes on the door where I obtained the quenching method. It's obvious that I need to put 15 of these pills in. But I don't even have enough pills for myself …' Su Ming fell silent. After a moment of hesitation, he decided to take it slow.
He made up his mind and rushed to the Barren Cauldron. He once again used the remaining herbs to quench the herbs.
In addition to quenching, he also sent the little monkey out to look for herbs. He collected a large amount of the plants that the elder would take away every time he remembered. He used the method of the tribe to grind them into juice and drank it. With the help of the Dust Cleansing Powder, the speed of the monkey's cultivation immediately increased a little.
In the blink of an eye, another two months went by. During these two months, Su Ming practically did not go out. The fire karst cave was like his second home. It was not easy to discover the existence of this place, which allowed Su Ming to train without worry.
During these two months, he created a lot of Scattering Dusts and drank them together with the medicinal concoctions that increased his blood. Gradually, the fifth blood vein manifested on his body.
Even the sixth blood vein was starting to appear. If he continued like this, he would be able to manifest it in no time.
It was winter outside. The other mountains were covered in snow. Only the area around Black Flame Mountain was covered in snow. The snow had already melted before it even touched the ground. But because of that, the mountain was covered in mist. From afar, it looked strange.
If it was the first time an outsider came here, they would definitely be interested. But for Su Ming, he had grown up nearby. He was used to the strangeness of the mountain and did not find it strange.
On this day, Su Ming sat with his legs crossed. The blood red glow on his body was thick. The five blood veins surrounded his body as if they had a life of their own. It was a shocking sight to behold.
The blood red glow continued to spread out. Su Ming's body was covered in sweat. His body trembled slightly but his face was filled with determination. This was the third time he tried to manifest the sixth blood vein in half a month. Once he succeeded, he would become a Berserker at the second level of the Blood Solidification Realm.
More importantly, he would be able to cast the first Berserker Art in his life. It was an Art that belonged to his tribe – Spirit Devourer!
The Spirit Devourer Berserker Art could not be cast out of thin air. It required the corpse of a wild beast that had just died. Through the Berserker Blood Veins, the Berserker could sense the spirit of the dead beast. Once the spirit was extracted, the Berserker would be able to increase part of the Berserker's abilities for a short period of time.
Only after mastering the Berserker Art could a Berserker be called a Berserker. There would be a clear difference between them and the other members of the tribe. They would become much stronger.
After a long while, Su Ming's body trembled. The blood red glow surrounding him gradually dissipated. The five blood veins on his skin also gradually faded away. He had failed to manifest the sixth blood vein once again.
Su Ming let out a deep breath. After a moment of silence, he took out some medicinal concoction and swallowed it along with the Scattering Dust. He started training once again.
Days passed by. In the blink of an eye, another month had passed. The entire Dark Dragon Mountain was covered in a thick layer of snow. Even Black Flame Mountain was shrouded in fog. Even the hot air was showing signs of dispersing.
The coldest time of the year had arrived.
But for Su Ming, this was the most crucial moment for him. Due to his relentless hard work and the fact that he had enough herbs and Scattering Dusts, Su Ming's training speed in the Blood Solidification Realm was incredibly fast. The sixth blood vein had already taken form, and it was about to manifest itself at the crucial moment.
The little monkey did not want to go out during winter. Its fur was red and it stood out too much on the white snow. That was why it would stay quiet until winter arrived.
At that moment, it was crouching beside Su Ming. It yawned as it looked at Su Ming. Yet at that moment, it suddenly turned its head around. There was a fierce look in its eyes and its ears twitched a few times.
There was a faint sound coming from outside …
"Yu Chi, the Sky Stonesol you mentioned grows here? We've been looking for it for a long time but we still couldn't find it. Are you sure? "It was a cold voice that made the little monkey tremble when it heard it.
"I don't think so. I remember that it was just a sprout when I first saw it. That's why I cast a Berserker Art nearby to hide it. It should have matured by now. You should know that only the normal members of the tribe come here to gather herbs. It's impossible for them to see through my Berserker Art." The person who answered had a sharp voice.
"Then hurry up and look for it. If there really is Sky Stone, I might be able to break through the third level quickly and enter the fourth level. As for you, you should be able to enter the third level as well."
"Don't worry. It should be here. I can still feel the connection of my Berserker Art … If you can reach the fourth level, then you can join the Black Mountain Hunters. I heard that the elder personally decided on the prey this time … Whatever you get will belong to you."
The two people's voices were getting closer. It sounded as if they were outside. The little monkey was so nervous that it did not dare to breathe. It could feel that the two people outside could pose a great threat to it.
It turned its head around to look at Su Ming, but Su Ming's eyes were shut tight. His body was trembling slightly. The blood red light on his body was getting brighter. The sixth blood vein looked like it was going to solidify at any moment.
Yet at that moment!
"I found it! Huh? Look, there's a hole here. It's a pity it's a little small! "
"That's right. It's Sky Stone! As for this hole … This was once the land of the Fire Berserker Tribe. There's heat around the hole, so it should be empty. Since we're already here, let's go in and take a look. It's just a hole. It won't be a problem for me. "The two people's voices traveled into the small monkey's ears. Their words made the little monkey's expression change.
It gritted its teeth anxiously and turned its head around to look at Su Ming. Then, it bared its teeth and turned into a red blur that rushed into the small hole. It disappeared into the hole.
Cries of surprise and excitement immediately came from outside.
"It's a Fire Ape, and it's a baby too! Haha!"
"This is where it avoids the cold. Catch it! Its blood is a great tonic for us! We can give its fur to the elder!"
As a shrill cry of pain echoed in the air, the voices outside gradually faded away. Yet within the cave, Su Ming's face was contorted and he was trembling violently.
"You … You're asking for it …" Su Ming lifted his head and let out an angry roar.
