Changes to the Blood Crystal
"The Blood Crystal is very different from what we imagined it to be," Xia Fei sternly said.
Phantom and Lionheart Emperor Oro looked at Xia Fei in confusion.
"How is it different? You haven't tested it yet, so how do you know? "Oro asked.
"When I caught the Blood Crystal, because the blade was too sharp, I cut my finger."
Oro frowned. "I know. Fortunately, the wound was small, or else it wouldn't care that you're its master and would even devour your blood essence."
Xia Fei nodded. "It's like this. The Blood Crystal devoured a bit of my energy, but it absorbed most of it, while a small portion was injected into my body through the hilt."
Shock!
Silence!
The atmosphere in the training room suddenly became much heavier.
"Say that again?! A portion of the energy absorbed by the Blood Crystal was transferred to you?! "Oro exclaimed in disbelief.
The implications of this ability were self-evident. Absorbing the opponent's energy to strengthen oneself was no different from the legendary Asteroid Assimilation Technique! It was sinister and ruthless to the extreme!
The more enemies Xia Fei killed, the stronger he would become, and the Blood Crystal would improve as well!
Too frightening!
This was a bloodthirsty combination!
The Blood Crystal from the Assassin Sect, through the combination of the Law of Primal Chaos, the Demon race's monsters, the Celestial Zerohammer, and so on, had finally revealed an unimaginable ferocity. This bloodthirsty dagger had already surpassed the category of weapons, becoming a unique existence in the universe!
Oro was stunned for several minutes before he sternly said, "I originally believed that the Celestial Zerohammer would forge you a divine weapon, but I was wrong.
"This isn't a divine weapon at all, but a demonic weapon!"
The atmosphere was extremely heavy. No one knew what the Blood Crystal, with its ability to devour and strengthen its master, would bring Xia Fei. Perhaps it would be a guarantee of success, or perhaps it would be destruction. After all, its abilities were too strange, and no weapon could compare.
"Do you remember the offspring of the Empress Ice Spider and the Pastel Ice Spider King?" Oro raised his head and sternly asked.
"I do. Those terrifying eyes made my entire body go numb, but that lifeform didn't look like a spider," Xia Fei said.
Lionheart Emperor Oro nodded. "Indeed, it doesn't look like it. Its parents only have the bloodline of a Beast King, but that little monster is a Divine Beast."
"Divine Beast!" Xia Fei was startled. He had seen Divine Beasts before. The two stupid birds raised by the Black and White Gods were one of them. Not only could they understand humans and speak the human tongue, they could even manipulate space!
Logically speaking, Divine Beasts and Holy Beasts like Furball were existences on the same level, but because Holy Beasts had the strength of character, were independent, and were rare, they were more valued.
A Divine Beast was like an elder of a large sect, dignified and powerful, while a Holy Beast was a solitary swordsman. The former was revered by the world, while the latter was praised by the world. They were both experts, but they pursued different paths to greater heights, which was why those two stupid birds were so respectful to Furball, for Furball himself was a legend!
"Heavens, the Blood Crystal actually used a Divine Beast as a catalyst!" Xia Fei muttered to himself. He had never imagined such a result.
"The bloodline of a Divine Beast isn't the same as that of a Divine Beast. It only proves that this little fellow has the potential to become a Divine Beast when it grows up, but its parents don't have this potential and can only be Beast Kings for the rest of their lives. In this regard, there's still a difference between a Divine Beast and a true Divine Beast.
"The reason for this situation is probably genetic mutation. You also know that the universe originally had no intelligent life, only a few simple single-celled organisms. After hundreds of millions of years and countless genetic mutations, high-level lifeforms were born.
"There are too many unknown factors in this divine weapon fusion, which ultimately resulted in your Blood Crystal becoming a strange magic weapon."
Xia Fei said nothing, suddenly realizing the opportunity.
If he could do the same thing a few more times, he might be able to obtain even more astonishing divine weapons! A unique divine weapon!
The genetic mutation of a monster was very important, but Xia Fei felt that the greatest contribution to the Blood Crystal's current appearance was the Law of Primal Chaos!
It was precisely because the Celestial Zerohammer had been infused with this disruptive force that Xia Fei possessed a unique magic weapon!
Alas, even if Xia Fei had the Law of Primal Chaos, there were not that many Celestial Zerohammer arrays in the world for him to use. Thinking of this, Xia Fei could not help but bitterly smile.
"What are you smiling about?" Oro asked.
Xia Fei put the Blood Crystal away in his ring and sternly said, "It's nothing. We're leaving the day after tomorrow, so I'll use this time to focus on cultivation. As the saying goes, sharpening a spear at the last moment is better than nothing. Who knows what that so-called Dragon Ascension Conclave is like."
…
Xia Fei woke up early in the morning, ate breakfast, and packed up before setting off for the spatial gate.
From a distance, he saw Patriarch Yu Jiang, Chief Steward Yu Jin, Chief Instructor Yu Luxuan, and Yu Hua sending Yu Xiaobei off.
Yu Xiaobei was a direct descendant of the clan, and he had many servants and maids with him. Meanwhile, Xia Fei was by himself, appearing rather lonely.
Turning his head to glance at Xia Fei, Yu Xiaobei strode away, looking determined to get what he wanted.
Next was Xia Fei's turn. Everyone briefed him on what he needed to take note of. For some reason, Xia Fei felt that the patriarch was rather cold to him today, but he did not mind it too much.
Once the briefing was done, the crowd dispersed, with only Yu Hua remaining.
"No one will be able to follow you to the Dragon Ascension Conclave. You'll have to deal with everything by yourself. This is the Dragon Ascension Conclave! Don't you feel nervous? "Yu Hua asked with a smile.
Xia Fei shook his head. "What's there to be nervous about? Will it be more exciting than the battlefield?"
Yu Hua patted Xia Fei on the shoulder. "This is one of the most important events in the Law Realm. Even I didn't have the right to participate in it back then. The last time someone from the Yu family went to the Dragon Ascension Conclave was when the patriarch was still young. You'll understand once you get there.
"In any case, be careful. I'll be waiting for your good news. If you can be accepted into the Dragon Ascension Martial Hall, your future will be limitless!"
Xia Fei nodded and smiled. "I still haven't thanked you for giving me the secret to clearing the conclave. If not for you, I probably wouldn't have been able to meet the requirements to participate in the conclave in such a short time."
Xia Fei was speaking from the bottom of his heart. He did not have many friends in this circle, and Yu Hua was one of the few people who treated him well. Though Yu Hua was rather complicated, Xia Fei did not care. No one in the world was simple, unless they were a child or an idiot. Humans were complex and unique high-level creatures.
Yu Hua nonchalantly said, "The method also needs the person to use it. Those with poor aptitude might not be able to clear the conclave even if they have the method. It also depends on their comprehension. I'm not just doing this for you but also for the entire Yu family. After all, it's been centuries since anyone from the Yu family has entered the Dragon Ascension Martial Hall."
Xia Fei was taken aback. "Not even the patriarch was able to enter back then?"
Yu Hua sighed. "No. He only obtained the right to participate in the conclave. The Yu family can't compare to the Nine Great Clans, so getting into Dragon Ascension is harder than reaching the heavens."
Xia Fei found this inconceivable. The Yu family had a population of more than a million, yet no one had entered the Dragon Ascension Martial Hall in centuries, not even having the right to participate in the Dragon Ascension Conclave. Was this not too harsh?
After bidding farewell to Yu Hua, Xia Fei stepped into the Spatial Gate.
The more mysterious the Dragon Ascension Conclave, the more Xia Fei's interest was piqued. He wondered just what the number one martial hall in the Law Realm was like.
…
The first stop on this trip was Myriad, which meant the Myriad Lights.
The Law Realm had a strict hierarchy, and the Nine Great Clans and a few other famous clans did not live together with others. They lived alone in a corner of the Law Realm, while Xia Fei's Yu family and the other smaller clans lived separately from the other prominent clans.
Myriad was where the headquarters of these smaller clans were located. Because the Dragon Ascension Conclave was held in the territory of the prominent clans, there was no Spatial Gate that could send Xia Fei there. Thus, he first had to obtain a certificate from Myriad and then go through a transit to get there. Entering the territory of the prominent clans through any other means was illegal. From this, one could see just how strict the Law Realm's barriers were.
Myriad was very large, and there were offices and headquarters of the various clans stationed here. If the Nine Great Clans had any needs or news, they would immediately be passed down through these offices.
Using the letter from the Yu family, Xia Fei obtained a pass from the Dragon Ascension Martial Hall's branch in Myriad, and then he found a shop and exchanged seventy tons of Pure Spirit Silver for Origin Crystals. Lionheart Emperor Oro was already an existence of the past, so he had no idea that the exchange rate for Pure Spirit Silver and Origin Crystals was now one to one and a half.
Xia Fei gritted his teeth and decided to exchange all the Pure Spirit Silver for grade 4 Origin Crystals, totaling up to 1050 pieces. Together with the remaining crystals, Xia Fei now had a total of 1106 grade 4 Origin Crystals and 12,300 grade 3 Origin Crystals. He could now be considered a person with some wealth.
The Spatial Gate leading to the White Horse Constellation was packed with people. Today was the important day for the participants of the Dragon Ascension Conclave to arrive, so Myriad City was heavily guarded. Law Adepts could be seen everywhere. Those dressed in black were from the Myriad Military Headquarters, while the proud warriors in red were from the Law Enforcement Board.
Though participating in the Dragon Ascension Conclave was very difficult, there were many clans in the circle. On average, each clan had one person, which meant that there were thousands of people.
The flow of people moved slowly, with only one person passing every minute. There were still several hundred people in front of Xia Fei, so it would probably be several hours before it was his turn.
Xia Fei frowned as he slowly followed the flow of people.
"Big Brother Xia Fei," a woman called his name from behind him.
Xia Fei turned around and saw that it was Mu Fuping. She was dressed very cleanly today, wearing a short outfit and exquisite combat boots. It was as if she was about to enter the battlefield.
"Miss Mu." Xia Fei returned the greeting. This young lady was rather troublesome, and Xia Fei did not want to have too much to do with her.
"I knew that you'd definitely be able to break through to Law Sovereign before the Dragon Ascension Conclave, so I came early in the morning."
Xia Fei frowned. "Were you waiting for me?"
Mm!
Mu Fuping firmly nodded. She was accompanied by her younger sister, Mu Qingping, and two other warriors that Xia Fei did not recognize. Aside from Mu Fuping, no one else treated Xia Fei well. This was to be expected. After all, Xia Fei had offended Mu Nanchen last time.
"Big Brother Xia Fei, let's go."
"To where?"
"The Dragon Ascension Conclave. Didn't you come for that?"
Xia Fei said, "The only path is up ahead. I'm in line right now."
Mu Fuping blushed. "You don't need to line up with me."
After saying this, she pulled Xia Fei to the Spatial Gate leading to the White Horse Constellation.
After revealing his identity, the warriors guarding the gate immediately pushed aside the crowd and made way for Mu Fuping.
