The vampire named Dennis in front of Li Yunmu didn't seem to have any desire to fight. He only focused on Li Yunmu with his light blue eyes.
Even the quasi deity level powerhouses formed by the twenty-three shadows behind Li Yunmu weren't within his range of attention.
But it couldn't be denied that the vampires Li Yunmu was facing possessed tyrannical strength. If the other party wanted to break out of the encirclement, then even if Li Yunmu called out all the powerhouses under his command, he might not be able to stop them!
"How can I believe that the blood of my people will be exchanged for allies …" After saying that, Li Yunmu paused for a moment, then continued with an ice-cold gaze, "That we aren't nurturing a tiger to bring calamity upon ourselves?"
Dennis licked his bloodless lips and said with a slight smile, "I can take the initiative to show my sincerity. As the leader of the human side, you can bind yourself to our Fox bloodline's blood pond. As long as your will exists, you can be reborn endlessly in our blood pond!"
Dennis's words weren't a lie. Li Yunmu had learned from the information provided by the system that not all vampires had the qualifications to have a surname. For example, the ancient thirteen branches of vampires before the Dark Ages possessed a sacred treasure that even gods feared. Dennis's words weren't true.
The blood pond which could allow endless rebirth couldn't be considered as a particularly precious treasure. It was more accurate to say that it was the standard equipment for all vampires, because the power of the vampires all came from the blood pond!
The blood pond bred new purebred vampires. Every time they ate, a portion of their blood would enter the blood pond. In the long run, the energy contained in the blood pond would become more and more enormous, and the vampires would also become more and more formidable!
Naturally, humans could also take the initiative to bind themselves to a blood pond in exchange for the ability to be reborn endlessly. But the price for doing so was extremely heavy. After the humans obtained a new body from the blood pond, they would no longer be humans, but purebred vampires!
"Naturally!"
Dennis raised his chin with a smile and said in a cold voice, "Rebirth here is not without a price. If you really die, you will be resurrected as a member of the Blood Tribe. The more powerful you are, the more blood energy you will consume, so …"
Even if Li Yunmu hadn't seen the information provided by the system, he could understand Dennis' words. After all, there was a limit to the power of the blood pond. Once its power was exhausted, it would need to accumulate it again. There was no such thing as overdrawing it.
If Li Yunmu's strength was too terrifying and he happened to die somewhere, then even if the blood pond was emptied, he wouldn't be able to be reborn. At that time, he would truly die.
The existence of the blood pond was both a blessing and a restriction for the vampires.
The Blood Clan could rely on the power of the Blood Pool to constantly grow stronger and even become immortal. However, once the power of the Blood Clan exceeded the limit, the moment the Blood Clan died, they would truly die!
Because of this reason, the vampires attached great importance to the 'family' system. Only when the number of powerhouses in the family increased would the Blood Pool become more and more formidable. Only then would the vampires, who were standing at the edge of the limit, have the courage to take another step forward!
Dennis' words caused Li Yunmu's complexion to become slightly better. At least the vampires from the other parallel planes hadn't bullied him. It was the first time he had seen a vampire and the first thing he did was to tell him about the side effects of the blood pond. He didn't try to trick Li Yunmu into signing a contract with the blood pond which might not be of any use to him!
The human race was actually a kind of complicated and simple creatures. They often fought for benefits, but most of the time, the human race adhered to a principle that had never changed since ancient times — if you respect me, I will respect you ten times!
Li Yunmu nodded to indicate that he understood and said in a deep voice, "Thank you for your reminder, but I need to think about it. Can I?"
"Please do as you wish." Dennis smiled faintly and agreed to Li Yunmu's request.
It wasn't the first time he had come into contact with humans. Before the descent of the Dark Ages, he was also a pure human. Therefore, when Li Yunmu didn't reveal any hostility which could make one's heart palpitate, Dennis knew that he had already succeeded halfway!
In other words, Dennis had already done all he could, and the next step would depend on Li Yunmu's decision!
As a matter of fact, as long as Li Yunmu didn't die in battle, binding himself to the Fox Family's blood pond wasn't a big deal. Regarding the relationship between humans and vampires, this was already the highest level of courtesy.
The vampires were a race which attached great importance to their 'family'. Even if they were mixed blood vampires, they would still possess the surname of the Fox Family as well as all sorts of skills taught to them by the powerhouses of the clan.
Once Li Yunmu bound himself to the blood pond, even if he was still a human, he could still call himself a member of the Fox Family and enjoy all the benefits and resources of an official member. He could even directly take the branch of vampires under his command!
Li Yunmu didn't believe that he was the main character of a fantasy novel from before the Dark Ages, where he only needed to shake his body slightly to attract a large number of powerhouses. The vampires had been wandering for a long time and had been starving for a long time. Coincidentally, they had encountered Li Yunmu, who had pretty good conditions in all aspects. That was why they had the idea of merging the two branches into one!
"Death?"
The corners of Li Yunmu's mouth rose slightly.
In the present world, if Li Yunmu claimed to be second in terms of defensive strength, then no one would dare to claim to be first.
If Dennis had raised some other conditions, then perhaps Li Yunmu would have been somewhat apprehensive. But given the circumstances, he had to pay the smallest price!
As long as an ancient god didn't descend, he didn't need to be afraid of any existence on the same level or even higher than him. Naturally, even if he was afraid of an ancient god, it was based on the fact that the other party wouldn't hesitate to pay any price to fight him to the end!
Just based on his perfect defense alone, Li Yunmu was confident that among all the existences he knew, even if they wanted to kill him at any cost, only a handful of them would have the ability to do so!
This was Li Yunmu's absolute defense, which gave him absolute confidence!
