In order to find a way to steadily raise the bloodline of the Kobolds, Karunu had long since started to research.
If it was anyone else, this kind of research would have been quite difficult.
After all, this kind of research had never stopped in this world.
In the past, there were quite a few mages who researched related topics. Apostles used some methods to activate the bloodlines hidden within bloodline creatures' bodies, thus making them even more powerful.
However, in the end, not a single person had succeeded.
This was the limit of this world, and apart from a few people, no one had succeeded.
However, this was not too bad for Karunu.
After all, he was not someone from this world, and he had a lot of technology, so he was not limited by this world.
The Sorcerer World, the Azure Heaven Realm, and even the mutated world he had been to, all of them had very high levels of technology, and they were all completely different systems from this world.
Through the knowledge of different worlds, it was possible for Karunu to do things that the mages of this world could not.
In actuality, he was a grandmaster in bloodline research.
The Heaven Devouring Scripture he had obtained in the Azure Heaven Realm, the research he had done in the Sorcerer World, and the technology he had obtained in the mutated world to create the Giant Star Beasts …
These were the reasons why Karunu was so confident.
"Let's give it a try …"
Standing there, Karunu thought for a moment before walking to the side.
In another area on the side, there were some things placed there.
Walking in to take a look, one would discover that there were none other than the corpses of Kobolds lying around.
These corpses had all been accidentally killed.
Before, Karunu had given the order to bring back the corpses of any Kobolds who had died in the wilderness.
The reason why he did all this was for this very moment.
Before walking over to these corpses, Karunu looked around.
He had long since taken care of these corpses, and they had all been taken care of through special methods, causing them to be in a unique state.
This kind of unique state made it convenient for Karunu to do some things.
As such, he started to move.
As he stretched out his hand, a wave of magic power flowed out and spread through these corpses.
Then, a terrifying scene began to unfold.
As the magic power spread out, the corpses in front of him began to slowly shrivel up. The flesh and blood seemed to have lost all moisture and instantly turned into dried corpses.
Along with this process, crimson droplets dripped out and fell into a container that had been prepared beforehand.
Drops of crimson blood began to gather, looking very conspicuous. It seemed to contain some kind of unique power, making people feel a unique life force at a glance.
These things were none other than the life essence contained within the corpses of the Kobolds.
Karunu was Chen Heng's clone, so he naturally also had the Heaven Devouring Scripture.
The Heaven Devouring Scripture was a technique that Chen Heng had brought out from the Azure Heaven Realm, and it allowed him to devour other people's life essence to strengthen himself.
However, under normal circumstances, using the power of the Heaven Devouring Scripture to devour the bloodline of others would also lead to various problems.
The biggest problem was that one's essence would become mottled, and one would be easily influenced by other xenogeneic bloodlines. That would cause one's personality to change.
After coming to this world, because the world's laws were different, the Heaven Devouring Scripture could not be used.
However, in the following days, Chen Heng's strength had recovered and he had been able to analyze this world's laws. He had slowly modified the Heaven Devouring Scripture to make it conform to this world's laws.
This was one of the reasons why Karunu could use this technique.
As long as one could grasp the principles behind many things, even if they were in a different environment, they could be researched again.
At most, he just had to modify some things to make them conform to the current environment.
After extracting the life essence from the corpses, Karunu didn't stop his actions. Instead, he continued to work on his next step.
Using the simple equipment around him, he used his magic power to carefully refine the life essence, doing his best to purify it.
Even though this was the life essence of the Kobolds and contained their essence, this did not mean that it did not contain any impurities.
On the contrary, many of the impurities were messy, and if one directly absorbed them, they would not be able to improve their bloodline and would only become stronger.
In actuality, this was how the Heaven Devouring Scripture was normally used.
This was how the Heaven Devouring Scripture was normally used.
He first extracted the life essence from other lifeforms' bodies and used special methods to refine it into his own body to increase his own origin energy.
Right now, Karunu was only going through the first step, which was using the Heaven Devouring Scripture's principles to refine the life essence. He did not plan on going to the second step.
After extracting the Bloodline Origin Source, Karunu used all sorts of methods to try and remove the impurities within the Origin Source.
During this process, he used the knowledge he had learned in the Sorcerer World, as well as some of the Karl people's techniques in the Mutated World.
Of course, even with such a deep accumulation of techniques, it was still very difficult for Karunu.
He had been trying this for a long time and had been doing it for more than two months.
However, it was only now that he had the first glimmer of hope, and was barely able to achieve some results.
Following Karunu's actions, the blood in the container started to change.
As he watched, the color of the blood in the container started to change. It had originally been crimson, but it now had traces of gold. Under the light, it gave off a bit of gold, looking quite obvious.
Looking at it, one would feel that it was extraordinary, and it had a charm that could make one's breathing quicken.
If it was an ordinary person, just looking at the blood giving off a golden light would make them feel tempted, wanting to devour it.
Karunu was the same.
The moment he looked at the blood before him, an instinctive desire arose in his heart. He wanted to obtain the source of the bloodline, absorb it, and use it to complete the evolution of his body, making himself even stronger.
Sensing this sensation rising in his body, Karunu revealed a smile.
"Success …"
At that moment, he felt quite relieved.
After working hard for such a long time, his current research was finally somewhat successful.
This was undoubtedly a good thing.
Standing there, he looked at the container in his hand.
After his extraction, the blood in the container had shrunk by a lot, and there was less than half of it left.
Moreover, this was not the limit.
As Karunu continued to refine it, the life essence would continue to condense and shrink.
However, Karunu was not too surprised.
After thinking about it, he continued to do what he was doing, trying to condense the life essence.
This process lasted for more than half a month.
It wasn't until half a month later that Karunu stopped what he was doing.
Of course, it was not that he wanted to stop; it was just that he had reached his limit.
The life essence in his hand had already been condensed to its limit, and even if he continued, it would not be very effective.
At this point, he had truly reached his limit.
As such, Karunu gave up on refining it and started the next step.
"Next, I'll try to fuse it …"
Standing there, Karunu thought to himself before starting to do what he was doing.
In order to compare, he injected this Bloodline Origin that he had painstakingly refined into himself and one of the Kobold eggs and began to observe their reactions.
The results of the injection were also very obvious.
In that instant, Karunu's body started to heat up.
It was as if he had a fever, and his entire body started to heat up.
Within his body, there were also various changes happening, which were quite obvious.
"My internal organs are growing and transforming …"
Standing there, Karunu's expression was calm as he sensed the changes within his body.
After injecting the life essence, there were obvious changes within his body.
The results of these changes were quite intense and had a clear effect on people.
If it wasn't Karunu but an ordinary Kobold, perhaps he would have fainted on the spot.
However, this was not too bad for Karunu.
Compared to ordinary people, his willpower and mental energy were much stronger, and he also had the support of divine power.
Things that would be fatal to other Kobolds were not that terrifying to him, nor was it a big deal.
In this state, Karunu started to carefully observe his changes.
This was why he wanted to personally inject it.
After all, if he observed other people's data, there would be areas that were lacking.
Compared to that, his own intuition was much clearer and more certain.
Under Karunu's observation, the drastic changes soon began.
After the initial fever, Karunu's internal organs started to change, and the internal structure seemed to be reorganizing.
This process continued for a while.
Following this, even more severe changes occurred.
The changes to his internal organs started to affect his external appearance.
Soon, Karunu's appearance also started to change.
His body started to become taller, and in just a month or so, he had grown much taller.
Moreover, on the surface of his body, some scarlet red scales began to spread and grow, reflecting a metallic luster.
Even though he had not truly tested them, just by looking at them, he could tell that these scales were incredibly sturdy.
Following this, Karunu's eyes also started to change, and they became a faint gold, making him seem even more dignified.
A unique bloodline's might started to form, causing his body to become stronger.
In terms of age, he was still a young Kobold, but in actuality, whether it was his body size or aura, he far surpassed ordinary Kobolds.
Even though he could still see the outline and appearance of a Kobold, anyone who saw him would not think that he was an ordinary Kobold.
This could be seen from the changes in the attitudes of the surrounding Kobolds.
Ever since Karunu's transformation began, the surrounding Kobolds' attitudes began to change, becoming more and more respectful and fearful.
In the past, only Kobolds who had seen Karunu use divine spells would show him respect and fervor.
But now, even a Kobold that they had never seen before would show fear and obedience to Karunu the moment they saw him.
This was like an instinct engraved in their bloodline, and there was no need to explain or teach them. It was something that they naturally possessed.
Karunu understood this reaction of the Kobolds.
After more than two months, Karunu could truly feel that the changes in his body had come to an end.
Even though there were still some changes happening, the changes in his body had stabilized, and there were no further changes.
The various changes and data that occurred during this process were all recorded by Karunu.
Of course, this transformation was not the end.
Karunu could sense that even though the Dragon's Vein in his body had started to awaken, it was far from being dense.
It was just that the Bloodline Origin Source that he had injected into his body could only support him to this point.
After all, it was just the Bloodline Origin Source that he had extracted from some Kobold corpses, so this was already quite good.
Karunu didn't mind it at all and continued to record.
"After injecting the Bloodline Origin Source, the injector will go through a transformation, and their organs will start to reconstruct …
"This process is very dangerous, and if it was an ordinary Kobold, their lives might be in danger, and they might die during the transformation …
"Only Kobolds with strong bodies, strong wills, and a certain amount of strength will be able to endure it …"
Within the simple laboratory, Karunu continuously recorded.
The process of the Bloodline Origin Source Source was incredibly dangerous, and this was something that he had never thought of.
According to the transformation method he had used before, ordinary Kobolds would not be able to endure it.
After all, under normal circumstances, the Kobolds were very weak, and their bodies were thin and frail. It was normal for them to be unable to endure the painful metamorphosis.
After all, this wasn't a normal situation. It was a metamorphosis of one's life essence, as well as a complete reconstruction of one's body.
It would be strange if there was no danger.
But in this case, according to Karunu's estimation, there wouldn't be many Houndhead Men who could use this method to enhance their Dragon Bloodline in the future.
As for directly injecting the bloodline into the Kobold egg to enhance the Kobold's bloodline during the development process, this idea had already been declared a failure.
Compared to a Kobold with its own consciousness, a pure Kobold egg did not have its own consciousness at all, so it could not resist the collapse of the bloodline recombination process.
During this period of time, no matter what Karunu did, the Kobold eggs that had been infused with the Bloodline Origin still died and lost their original vitality.
This path could be directly sealed off.
Of course, if a small amount was injected, it might still be possible to succeed.
But in that case, there was no need for it.
After all, if it was only a small amount, why not wait until the Kobolds reached adulthood?
That way, not only would the effects be better, but the chances of success would also be greater.
As for infusing the bloodline into the infant and embryo stages, he could put this aside for now.
Judging from the current situation, adult Kobolds had the highest chance of survival, and the effects were also the best.
However, this also meant that he had to solve a few problems.
"The first problem is the source of the Bloodline Origin …"
Standing there, Karunu started to think about this problem.
In order to improve the Kobold's bloodline, he first had to solve the problem of the source of the Bloodline Origin.
The Bloodline Origin that Karunu was currently infusing came from the corpses of other Kobolds.
If he used this method to improve the bloodline, it would mean that a phenomenon would occur.
Every time a Kobold's bloodline was upgraded, at least ten other Kobolds would have to die.
Only then would there be enough Bloodline Origin Energy to upgrade the remaining Kobold.
And this was obviously an impossible matter.
Unless he massacred the ordinary Kobolds, it would be very difficult.
However, if that was the case, it would not be worth it.
The reason why Karunu wanted to upgrade the bloodlines of the other Kobolds was to increase the power of his subordinates.
However, if he sacrificed the lives of ten Kobolds just to increase the power of one of his subordinates, the damage to his power would be even greater, and it would not be worth it.
Was it worth it to use ten mature Kobolds to exchange for one more powerful Kobold?
Karunu felt that it was not.
No matter how he looked at it, the increase in power from ten Kobolds would be greater than that from one Kobold.
Moreover, from an intelligent race's perspective, this was not in line with the morals of a civilized race, and it would not be good for Karunu's rule.
Unless those Kobolds had all died by accident.
If that was the case, there would not be any problems.
Thinking to there, Karunu's heart jumped as he sank into his thoughts.
"That seems to be possible …"
Standing on the spot, he began to ponder.
In every normal society, there would be large numbers of people who died of old age or accidents.
It wasn't appropriate to kill someone who was still alive to refine their bloodline, but it would be much better to take someone who was already dead to refine their bloodline.
Of course, under normal circumstances, simply dying of old age would not be enough to satisfy the Kobold's bloodline upgrade.
After all, under normal circumstances, there would always be more living people than dying of old age.
