...
One day and one night later.
Meng Tuoluo rode a giant beast and appeared under the red-leafed tree on the cliff. This was the place where she and Søren had agreed to meet.
When she did not see Søren, her heart turned cold.
She searched around the red-leafed tree, but still did not find anything.
What was surprising was that there was a tree hole on the red-leafed tree yesterday, but today, it was closed.
And Meng Tuoluo did not find the tree hole on the back of the tree yesterday. Today, the tree hole was closed. Of course, she would not find Søren inside.
Although Søren was only a few feet away from her, she did not sense any energy aura from Søren.
The Blood Shore Maze City was full of danger. Anyone who entered would die. Everyone knew this. Especially with Sauron's cultivation level, there was no way he could survive.
However, Søren was possessed by the legendary Eros after all. Secondly, it was Sauron himself who insisted on going in. Everyone had to be responsible for their own lives. Even if they were to die.
Therefore, on that day, Meng Tuoluo did not say anything to stop him.
Because she felt that she did not have the responsibility and obligation to stop Søren. In fact, if it was not for the responsibility of the Viper Tribe, Meng Tuoluo would have been filled with the urge to die.
For example, the Blood Wedding in the Black Blaze Fortress could be considered as the result of Meng Tuoluo's impulse to die.
...
Next, Meng Tuoluo sat on the cliff and waited for a day according to the agreement. She quietly looked in the direction of the Blood Shore Maze City.
Soon, another day passed.
Meng Tuoluo sighed softly and then turned to leave. She said that she would wait for a day, so she would wait for a day. She would not wait more than two hours.
However, after leaving for two hours, she turned back.
Then, she waited for another day, two days, three days!
Søren did not appear, and she could not sense any energy aura at all.
"Looks like he's either dead or dead. Meng Tuoluo said, "But all of this has nothing to do with me. I have already fulfilled my part of the agreement."
Then, she rode away on the giant beast and never looked back.
…
Eros continued to release Dragon Power to refine Søren's tendons, bones, and muscles.
One day, two days, three days …
In the past, the longest time he had spent refining it was barely more than a day.
At this time, three days, four days, five days passed.
After a full seven days and seven nights, Søren finally opened his eyes and woke up!
The tempering process lasted for seven days and seven nights!
Then, how much had his cultivation improved? The first thing Søren asked after waking up was this question.
Even though the only reason he came to the Blood Shore Maze City was to save Yan Yan.
Furthermore, just as Tu Lingduo had said, martial arts was just a decoration for someone like him. It was not important at all.
For example, Jiang Xue's so-called treasures were priceless in the eyes of others, but in his eyes, they were worthless.
He could throw away the priceless Golden Dragon Sword whenever he wanted. He had also thrown the mysterious and powerful sword he had obtained from the temple into the lake of blood, just to see if it would be corroded.
But Søren was still very concerned about improving his cultivation. If his martial arts cultivation was high enough, then he would not be so passive when he was captured by Tu Lingduo again.
Especially since Eros had said that the amount of Dragon Power absorbed this time was many times more than the sum of all the previous times.
Moreover, the previous tempering process did not last more than a day. This time, it was a full seven days and seven nights, so he was very excited to see how much his cultivation would improve.
"Eros, how much did my cultivation break through?" Søren asked.
Eros was silent for a long time, then said, "Master, perhaps you know that everyone's Dragon Bloodline is different. If a person's talent for strength is high, then when tempering the Dragon Power, most of the Dragon Power will be converted into strength. So most of the time, everyone can only major in one martial arts profession, and at most minor in one. For example, the warrior beside you, Ye Jingyu, major in swordsmanship and minor in archery. "
Søren nodded. Although Ye Jingyu used a scimitar and belonged to the category of half swordsman and half assassin, she still belonged to the category of swordsmanship.
Not just scimitars, swords, and other light weapons also belonged to this category. This was because this type of martial arts relied on moves and agility, and was not good at strength and endurance.
"So?" Søren asked.
"Previously, when I was tempering your Dragon Power, almost all I increased was strength. As for agility, bones, and endurance, there was not much improvement," Eros said.
That was true, because at that time, Søren only had two requirements — strength and spirit. He needed to draw the bow strong enough, and he needed enough spirit to aim.
"And then?" Søren asked.
"And this time, after seven days and seven nights of Dragon Power tempering, your strength, agility, bones, spirit, endurance, and so on, almost all have been improved, and all attributes of all professions have been improved." Eros said.
"…" Søren was stunned.
"In other words, your speed has increased, your strength has increased, your resistance to attacks has increased, and your combat endurance has increased. Your cultivation, all aspects, and all attributes have been greatly improved. You are now not only an archer, but also a swordsman, assassin, strongman, knight, spirit cultivator, and so on. As long as you are willing, you can pursue any martial arts profession. "
"How much has my cultivation improved?" Søren was completely stunned.
"Your archery cultivation has directly broken through ten levels, from Level 3 Samurai Archer to Level 3 Intermediate Samurai Archer," Eros said. "Remember, this is completely your own Dragon Power cultivation, and you can reach this level without any help from me."
Beginner Samurai were from Level 1 to 9.
Intermediate Samurai were from Level 1 to 9.
Advanced Samurai were from Level 1 to 9.
Normally, it would take at least two years to break through from Level 3 Samurai Archer to Level 3 Samurai Archer.
But now, Søren had achieved such an amazing breakthrough in just one night.
Fiend Star said, "Also, assassins, swordsmen, strongmen, knights, and other martial arts professions, you've almost all increased by ten levels. From zero, you've broken through to the ninth level. You're only one step away from becoming an intermediate warrior."
In other words, Søren was now a Level 9 Assassin, Level 9 Swordsman, Level 9 Strongman, Level 9 Knight, and so on.
Among the major martial arts professions, assassins were suitable for killing, and very profitable, but never had status.
Swordsmen were suitable for martial arts competitions, so they were the favorite of nobles.
Strongmen and knights were born for the battlefield. The strength of an army depended on the number of strongmen and knights.
Strongmen were the leaders of the infantry, and knights were the leaders of the cavalry.
Most of the family warriors under Søren were strongmen and knights. These people were not strong in one-on-one combat, but on the battlefield, they were far more useful and powerful than a high-level Samurai.
Moreover, in this world, strongmen and knights were the two most difficult martial arts professions to improve. It required endless blood and sweat, and there were not many shortcuts.
And in the Royal City Academy, what they trained the most were strongmen and knights. They were the mainstays of the entire world.
"However, all these improvements can't compare to your Mental Energy cultivation, which is your greatest strength," Eros said.
"What's the breakthrough in my Mental Energy cultivation?" Søren asked. This was what he was most concerned about.
This was because Mental Energy was the strongest martial art in this world. He had relied on Mental Energy to counterattack twice. One had killed Xue Sha, and the other had almost killed Tu Lingduo.
Mental Energy Masters were so noble and powerful. However, almost no one in this world chose it.
First of all, it was too demanding on one's Mental Energy talent. If one's Mental Energy talent did not reach 8.5, there was no need to cultivate Mental Energy.
Secondly, this profession was too extraordinary, and it was almost completely monopolized by the Dragon Temple. There was not much room for development in the secular world.
In fact, once one chose Mental Energy Masters, they would be weakened in other martial arts. This was because Mental Energy Cultivators meditated all day long, and it was difficult for them to improve their Dragon Power.
For example, the Mental Energy Cultivator in the Heavenly Tomb. His Mental Energy cultivation was so strong that it was almost nature-defying, but his martial arts level was really just average.
Therefore, Mental Energy Masters were the rarest and most important.
Eros said, "Previously, when you were devoured in the Heavenly Tomb, your Mental Energy cultivation rose to the intermediate level. This time, your Mental Energy cultivation has once again increased tremendously, from the initial Intermediate Level to the Intermediate Level Six Stars. That's an increase of six levels. "
Eros continued, "Not only that, your Mental Energy talent rose again, from 8.7 to 8.9. Now, in the entire Raging Wave Kingdom, there should be no more than ten people whose Mental Energy talent surpasses yours. "
Søren was completely shocked. If an intermediate level six star Mental Energy Master used Eros to make a critical hit, even some high-level warriors would not be a match for him.
"The energy devoured this time isn't just Dragon Power? Doesn't it have no Mental Energy? "Søren asked doubtfully.
Eros said, "This is the energy we devoured, but the flames spewed by the Ancient Dragon are the purest and most powerful energy in the world. They ignore any attributes."
Søren was completely and utterly shocked.
For example, it would take two years to go from a Level Three Warrior Archer to an intermediate level three star Warrior Archer.
Then, it would take at least three years for Assassins, Swordsmen, Strongmen, Knights, and other martial arts professions to break through from zero to a Level Nine Warrior.
Meanwhile, it would take at least five years for an intermediate level Mental Energy Master to break through to an intermediate level six star Mental Energy Master.
In other words, it only took one night for Søren to achieve such an earth-shattering improvement in cultivation that would take 15 years to break through.
"Master, this is completely your own cultivation. There's no need for me to provide any energy at all. It's completely from your bloodline," Eros said.
Søren said, "How can this be? In the past, I only improved one or two attributes. This time, it's actually an increase in all attributes? "
Eros said, "It's because of the Dragon Flame tempering in the temple a few days ago. Although it almost turned you into ashes, and it only lasted for half a second, it has completely changed and sublimated your Dragon Vein. It has comprehensively improved all your attribute talents and transformed into a bloodline that truly belongs to you."
That night, the Dragon Flame had burned Søren's body, making him feel truly terrifying.
Even though he had Eros, it had almost instantly turned him into ashes. If it weren't for the Sea of Blood, he would have died ten thousand times.
Eros said, "Even though I brought you such a huge breakthrough, I still reserved a considerable amount of Dragon Power just in case, so that you have enough energy to carry out many Dragon Power Critical Strikes."
Søren was puzzled. If the Dragon Power that he had devoured this time had only improved one martial arts profession, then it might have been close to a high-level Warrior.
Søren clicked his tongue and said, "But that night, you only devoured an innumerable part of the Dragon Flame energy."
"Yes, only an innumerable part," Eros said, "Most of the rest of the energy was used to boil the Sea of Blood."
An innumerable part of the energy had brought such a huge improvement to Søren.
This Dragon Seal Relic was really heaven-defying.
Unfortunately, Søren's cultivation base was too low. If he had been a high-level Warrior, then he would have directly broken through to Dragon Warrior in just one night.
The energy of Yan Nair's Dragon Seal Stele should be far inferior to that of Søren's Dragon Flame. Moreover, it had been devoured by the Undead for countless years.
However, her martial arts foundation was high, and the upper limit of the energy she could devour was far greater than Søren's, so she directly broke through to Dragon Warrior.
This Dragon Flame was a real treasure of heaven and earth. It could be called a reckless waste for Søren to devour it.
…
As Søren woke up, the hole of the red-leafed tree slowly opened again.
He came out of the tree hole and found that Meng Tuoluo was nowhere to be seen. He couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Eros, how long did we temper our cultivation in the tree hole?"
"Seven days and seven nights," Eros said.
"That is to say, it has long exceeded the ten-day agreement with Meng Tuoluo?" Søren asked.
"Yes," Eros said.
"Then why didn't you wake me up at that time?" Søren asked.
Eros said, "That would have interrupted the tempering of cultivation, which would have brought about huge losses. And I think, with the relationship between you and Meng Tuoluo, she should have waited here, even if it was ten days or a month. "
Søren suddenly laughed at himself, "You, you really overestimate the relationship between us. The reason why she helped me was that I am the host of Eros, and she is completely anti-human. She hopes that one day I can become the World Destroyer Demon Emperor and destroy the human world that she hates. Other than that, I have no feelings for her. "
To be precise, Meng Tuoluo had no feelings for anyone in this world, except for that man.
Søren asked again, "I am clearly in this red-leafed tree. With Meng Tuoluo's cultivation, she should be able to easily smell my energy aura and find me."
Eros said, "This tree has grown with tens of thousands of years of blood aura. It can shield all energy aura. That is why I asked you to hide inside, because barbarians may appear here at any time. "
I see!
Next, Søren had to face a huge problem. How should he go back? How should he go back to the Hundred Thousand Mountains and return to Yan Nair's side?
Go all the way north and walk out of the barbarians' territory by himself?
This was absolutely impossible. Even if he had reached the cultivation of a Dragon Warrior, he would definitely not be able to walk more than eight hundred miles.
Now that Søren had a deeper understanding of the barbarians, he knew that in terms of individual strength, the barbarians were far superior to humans.
Moreover, no matter how he dressed up, he could not hide the human energy aura on him.
Therefore, as long as he left this uninhabited area, he would immediately be hunted down. The only result would probably be that he would become meat on the barbarian's barbecue.
What should he do? What should he do?
It had been nearly a month since he left Yan Nair. At this time, she was leading a team of a thousand dare-to-die warriors, fighting against enemies that were dozens of times their size. They were on the verge of destruction at every moment.
The longer he went back, the more danger Yan Nair would face.
Søren closed his eyes and thought quickly, trying to think of any way to return to the human's territory.
However, some things, some difficulties, were completely beyond the reach of human beings.
There was no way for him to return to the north of the Hundred Thousand Mountains safely. Once he encountered the barbarians, the only possibility was to fight.
At this moment, a bird's cry suddenly came from the sky. It sounded like the cry of victory or the roar of a lion.
Then, a giant griffin flew from the north, getting closer and closer.
From a thousand meters away, Søren gazed at it and immediately saw a beautiful, almost devilishly beautiful face on the griffin.
It was Jiang Xue. How strange. Why did he come back?
