The shadow fiend returned to the Blazing Flame Monarch on the eleventh day after parting ways with Grimm.
Though it had successfully brought back the Shadow Pearl, its injuries had reached a ghastly level.
Fortunately, Grimm had added a large amount of memory metal when he'd created the shadow fiend's body. Thus, the shadow fiend could completely repair the damage on its body with the help of a sea of shadow energy.
The vampires who'd gone on an expedition to the Heisen Plane returned to their base on the seventeenth day.
The moment they returned, the Crimson Family was in an uproar.
Following them were a large number of people who'd become high-ranked vampires.
Without a doubt, Mary had advanced to rank 4, turning the Crimson Family into a family of super Magi. If Alice was included, then the Crimson Family had the potential to become an independent force.
This news had yet to spread, but once it reached the scattered forest of towers, a new wave of unrest would be unavoidable.
Of course, apart from Mary, the blood lord who'd advanced to rank 4, two other blood elves in Heisen's group had also advanced to rank 3. They were the blood elf wizard Isa and the blood elf shapeshifter Spara.
As for the other vampires, they'd more or less advanced as well. It was just that they hadn't advanced by a large rank like the two of them.
Since the Heisen Plane had already become the private property of the vampires, Mary had taken the initiative to subjugate and enslave a large number of native trolls. She had them work day and night, transforming the former capital of the trolls into a massive Castle of Blood. It had become a stronghold for the vampires.
The former nest of the Winged Serpent God, which was the divine domain, had been dug out and turned into a giant blood pond.
As long as the vampires worked hard, the Ancient Blood Castle would become the holy land of the vampires, and the blood pond would become the origin of the high-ranked vampires.
However, this was all for later, and Mary and the others had to put their heart into it.
The good thing was that Mary and the other vampires had also brought back a large number of spoils of war. Among them, there were many good things that even Grimm's eyes lit up.
Mary left everyone behind and barged into Grimm's Blazing Flame Monarch.
In an alchemy laboratory, Mary grabbed Grimm's collar and pulled him in front of her, scrutinizing him carefully.
"During this period of time … have you … gone far away?"
Grim furrowed his brows as he was baffled by the situation.
"What are you talking about? Why are you going on a long journey? "
"Let me ask you this. Have you ever been to the Heisen Plane?" Mary threatened, baring her canine teeth.
"The Heisen Plane? Why would I go to Heisen Plane? " Grim's face was' blank '. "You know that my soul source hasn't recovered yet. How can I go out and run around?"
At such a close distance, Grimm's words weren't false at all.
His Soul Origin did not match his Tier 4 status. It was too weak and unstable.
Could it be that the stinky snake suffered a terrible backlash because of the large number of believers dying? Otherwise, there was no reason for it to be half-dead when they attacked its lair …
Such a profound question was obviously not suitable for Mary to think about. She had only thought about it for a moment, and a series of little stars had already appeared in the depths of her beautiful blood-red eyes. It was obvious that she was in the stage where her mind was in chaos and her rationality was collapsing.
If she couldn't figure it out, then there was no need to think about it. Only Mary could confidently carry out such a simple and crude solution.
After giving up on thinking, Mary quickly regained her rationality and clarity.
Her face instantly bloomed with a sweet smile that could kill a person.
"You're a Tier 4, and so am I. How about it? Let's go have another round and see? "
Faced with such a self-torturing suggestion, Grimm was naturally duty-bound to reject it.
Mary immediately beamed with joy.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. You should just stay here and recuperate. You're my woman from now on. If anyone dares to bully you, just tell them my name, and I'll take care of them for you … "
After saying that, Mary raised her clean neck and let out a complacent, queen-like laugh.
He was so proud of himself for suppressing Grim, but it also made him roll his eyes and speechless.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. These are the spoils of war that I've brought back for you this time. Sign here and receive them … "After Mary had enough of teasing him, she vented out the suffocating feeling of being 'oppressed' for nearly a hundred years. With a wave of her hand, she released a large pile of spoils of war from her storage ring.
"Take your time, I still have to pay a visit to that gentle and cute 'sister' Alice!" When she said the word 'sister', Mary gritted her teeth.
The age of a Magus was very difficult to calculate.
Between Mary and Alice, who was the older sister and who was the younger sister was a complete mess. No one could figure out who was the older sister. Hence, with the Magus World's habit of respecting the older sister, the stronger one would be the older sister. No matter how unconvinced the other party was, her strength was still there for all to see. She had no choice but to lower her head.
Because of this, Mary's rank had always been slightly lower than Alice's, so she had to sullenly stay as the 'younger sister' for a long time. To be honest, the nameless fire in her heart was about to burn through the sky.
Right now, she and Alice were both at the beginning of the fourth rank, so their ranks were the same.
However, because she was a combat witch, she was more 'respectable' than Alice, who had no combat power. Hence, it was only natural for her to be in charge of the two of them.
This time, she finally had a chance to become the older sister. If she didn't go and show off, she might really get sick from holding it in!
Therefore, after messing around with Grim for a while, Mary suddenly gave him a light peck on the lips and left with her head held high and left like the wind.
Grimm didn't know whether to laugh or cry until Mary's aura disappeared from the Blazing Flame Monarch. Only then did he look at the spoils of war she had left behind.
The corpse of the Winged Serpent God …
Eleven lightning-type divine force crystals …
A source substance that hadn't been contaminated by any foreign energy …
As well as that … giant egg.
Although there weren't many spoils of war in front of him, Grimm's heart suddenly burned with passion.
It could be said that Mary and the others had risked their lives and paid a huge price for the spoils of war. Almost 80% of the essence was concentrated in these few spoils of war.
This meant that Mary had only extracted the blood from the Winged Serpent God's corpse and sent the rest of the valuable things to Grimm.
Did Mary not understand the value of these spoils of war?
Ignoring everything else, just that piece of sefirah was something that the Quetzalcoatlus had extracted from the Heisen Plane's source energy. In order to prevent it from being contaminated by foreign energy, the Winged Serpent God had used the power of faith to store it.
Such a pure, natural source substance was obviously much better than the ones in the Magus World that used elemental or non-elemental crystals to store it. If he were to convert it, this source substance in front of him would be worth more than 3,000 sith.
Grimm had risked his life to participate in a bloody battle between peak rank 3 Magi, but he had only obtained 500 sith.
If Grimm was lucky enough to obtain two of these source substances, his path to rank 5 would be smooth. The only thing he needed to do now was to meditate day after day to increase his spiritual force.
As long as his spiritual force reached a certain level, his advancement to rank 5 would be a piece of cake. Everything would happen naturally.
Unfortunately, there was only one source substance in front of him. He would have to find the other half in the next few hundred years.
This was the only thing that most rank 4 Magi were concerned about.
Grimm carefully put away the source substance and began to examine the other spoils of war.
The corpse of the Winged Serpent God …
Although the divine blood had been extracted and the vitality of the body had decreased, its value was still indescribable.
The Winged Serpent God was once a rank 5 Earth God.
After all, this Quetzalcoatl was once a Tier 5 Earth God. Although it had fallen to Tier 4 due to giving birth, its physical body's Immortal attribute was still there. If the extraction method was reasonable and the method was gentle, this immortal attribute could be transferred.
The so-called immortal attribute could only be possessed by high-grade creatures.
The high-grade creatures here referred to extraordinary creatures that were rank 4 and above.
Creatures with an immortal body would not die from any natural causes. They would not age, and they did not need to sleep, breathe, or eat. Even if they were in a sealed environment with zero magic, they could live for thousands of years without rest, forever maintaining their original state.
The reason why rank 4 Body Refinement Magi did everything they could to refine their bodies into an immortal body was because of this. Only Peak Grade 4 Body Tempering Sorcerers could achieve such a feat.
Therefore, the value of an immortal body to a Magus could be imagined!
If Grimm did not walk the path of an Elemental Magus, this immortal body would probably be an unparalleled temptation to him. As for the slight changes to the body, it could be slowly adjusted through spells or simply continued in a non-human form.
To be honest, among the high-grade Magi, there were not many who could maintain their human form.
Although a lot of Tier 4 Sorcerers usually looked kind and amiable, once they revealed their 'true form' in battle, their appearance was as scary as it could be.
Let's not talk about others, let's talk about Grimm.
Grimm's true battle form was a terrifying flame giant that was more than 10 meters tall.
Only such a form could accommodate the golden flames spewing out from the Heart of Law, and only such a form could fully display the terrifying might of a Legendary Fire Magus!
As for his usual human form, it could be said to be a disguise or a low-magic state.
