Two Realms Shuttle Gate: Don't Call Me a Demon!

Chapter 673 - 405: Blood Refining_2

However, even so, Su Jie discovered through the comparison of blood absorption that these cold-chain stored blood samples had lost 30% of their potency compared with freshly refined human blood.

This was not due to a problem with the storage process but to the natural loss of blood essence within the blood, an unavoidable occurrence.

Moreover, Su Jie noticed that compared to the blood of the Tianyuan World, the blood from Blue Star was far inferior.

Su Jie conjectured that this was because humans in the Tianyuan World had been living in an environment filled with Spiritual Power from birth, which made their blood subtly different from that of Blue Star.

To verify his guess, Su Jie also used other prisoners of war from Japan for a series of tests on the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill.

Only after all the tests were completed and Su Jie had confirmed his conjectures did he finally begin formal cultivation.

"Rise!"

With a flick of his fingers, Su Jie summoned a roaring tornado out of thin air in the underground training room, turning it into swirling vortexes.

The blood stored in the containers, under the force of the wind, was drawn out in a procession, staining the tornado red, like dragons sucking up water, causing a blood-red storm.

In a moment, the spectacle was grand, with two thousand tons of blood spread across the air; any ordinary human entering this place would have been scared stiff.

"Refine!"

Su Jie rapidly deployed spells with his hands, and to better absorb the blood, he also took out the Nine-grade Sacred Lotus, which provided him with the Spiritual Power needed to practice the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill.

Blood tornadoes merged with each other, forming a massive blood tornado, the blood thickening into a deep red color, the pungent, iron scent of blood overwhelming the senses.

Su Jie stood at the eye of the blood tornado while the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill operated, his lips moving slightly as he chanted a low demonic sound, making the air around him seem to ignite, the distorted heatwave suffocating.

Runes appeared out of the void, boiling the blood, a thick, blood-colored mist enveloped the entire underground practice area reaching a state of total obscurity.

On the surface of Su Jie's body, his muscles and veins bulged, his blood vessels twisted like serpents, sometimes tensing, sometimes swelling as if invisible creatures were moving through them.

The Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill was convenient to practice, it wasn't about being a Vampire; there was no need for Su Jie to drink the blood, which was impractical given the sheer volume of it.

Su Jie was merely absorbing a unique blood melody from the blood and transforming it.

An immense amount of blood was continuously refined and then transformed into Su Jie's own Holy Blood.

Holy Blood was the key to practicing the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, which involved replacing one's own blood with Holy Blood.

Initially, Su Jie had only a dozen or so drops of Holy Blood in his body, which were condensed from refining his own blood.

That amount was far from the fifth level of the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, where all the blood in the body becomes Holy Blood; the human body holds about four to five thousand milliliters of blood, with one milliliter amounting to 20-25 drops, meaning the human body contains at least a hundred thousand drops.

But as tons upon tons of fresh blood were refined and absorbed by Su Jie using the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, everything changed.

Within the bone marrow, droplets of shinning golden-red Holy Blood condensed, and although the blood of these ordinary people was not as high quality as Su Jie's own blood, the sheer volume was overwhelming!

A quantitative change caused a qualitative change, and Su Jie's cultivation of the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill sped up dramatically.

A hundred drops!

Five hundred drops!

Two thousand drops!

More and more Holy Blood condensed within, and the level of Su Jie's Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill continued to break through.

First Level!

Second Level!

In the blink of an eye, Su Jie advanced two whole levels in the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, moving beyond the initial stages.

And yet, it was not over, as Su Jie continued to absorb the blood.

In this refining process, Su Jie's body also underwent transformations.

Enshrouded in the blood mist, the twisted veins on Su Jie's body appeared especially eerie.

Crack!

Crack!

His body was as if torn by some indescribable force and restructured, becoming deformed and terrifying.

One by one, white and ghastly bones pierced through the skin, hands and feet became grotesque and bizarre, limbs folded randomly like cloth, joints displaced, muscles and skin stretched tight over the complex skeleton as if they would burst open at any moment from the seams.

Hair seemed possessed with its own consciousness, wildly thrashing in the void, slashing the ground around it full of holes.

Blood, the essence of the human body, when condensed into Holy Blood, would continuously strengthen the body's constitution.

Therefore, the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill is also a Body Refining Technique. In the process of condensing Holy Blood, it was also gradually transforming the body.

However, the process appeared somewhat terrifying and bizarre. Su Jie would occasionally let out low growls and roars of pain, blowing the bloody mist into the air, making the scene particularly disturbing.

Time quietly slipped away, and one day passed in the blink of an eye.

On the underground cultivation field, the blood mist had thinned considerably, no longer a dense fog that obscured vision, only faint traces of blood occasionally emerged and then vanished without a trace.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the blood fog began to ripple as if some mysterious power was awakening.

The bloody mist churned violently, bubbles of blood rising and bursting, then rising again, forming waves of red, surging in waves.

"Open!"

A cold voice spread, and the surrounding blood fog formed several funnel-shaped vortices, a difficult-to-describe aura began to permeate, heavy and oppressive, making the air around it become weighty.

The blood fog grew thinner, and at its center, a blurry figure slowly emerged.

At this moment, Su Jie was in tatters, revealing a body akin to a master sculptor's perfect work.

On the skin, the patterns of the Blood Talismans faded, Su Jie took out a new set of clothes from the Storage Bag and changed out of the clothes torn apart during the body strengthening process.

Following that, Su Jie looked down at his palm, where the skin of the palm had split open, and drops of pale golden Holy Blood rolled down.

Bang!

The Holy Blood fell to the ground, instantly swelling and transforming, and the ground seemed to be suddenly gnawed away by a huge chunk, as a massive blood-red tentacle thundered down, shaking the entire cultivation field.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The more Holy Blood that dropped, the more it twisted and condensed into various bizarre entities, as if they had a life of their own—some transformed into tall, strange figures, wandering through the blood mist.

Others became nine-headed six-tailed monsters, thirty feet in size, leaving behind a trail of sticky traces, which then condensed into smaller, ferocious blood-like creatures, wildly jumping and wriggling.

Even more Holy Blood became various deformed and terrifying entities, lacking the symmetry and coordination of natural creatures, with multiple limbs, tentacles, slime, and vertical pupils.

With the appearance of these beings, the air filled with the scent of decay and foulness, as if emanating evil thoughts from the deepest abyss.

"No wonder it's called Demon Blood by the Righteous sects."

Su Jie murmured to himself. As a Demon Cultivation Method, this was also one of the side effects.

These were the Heart Demons and evil thoughts naturally produced during the cultivation of the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, also known as Blood Demons, which made it easy to fall into demonic cultivation if one was not careful.

However, with a thought from Su Jie, his Primordial Spirit shone with the brilliance of the God Unification Level, sweeping away all filth and evil thoughts.

All the blood shed its instincts, freely controlled by Su Jie, turning into various Flying Swords, Treasures and even Transforming Giants—of course, this form was only superficial, the attack was still a pure physical form.

The extremely high level of the Primordial Spirit meant that Su Jie was not afraid of Heart Demons.

"Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, Third Level, it truly lives up to a Demon Cultivation Method—the progression is fast."

Su Jie smiled at the corner of his mouth. The Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill had Twelve Levels, and Su Jie's skill had already reached the Third Level.

This was the Demon Path, where the speed of cultivation was unmatched by the Righteous sects.

For the Righteous sects, no Cultivation Technique would allow a person to rise three levels overnight—only the Demon Path could achieve that.

Su Jie looked at his palm again, took out the White Bone Sky Slaying Sword that he hadn't used for a long time, this Top Grade Magical Artifact, when swung at Su Jie's arm, only left a faint blood mark which healed and recovered in the next second.

The fresh blood of five million people allowed Su Jie's Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill to soar directly to the Third Level and greatly strengthened his body. Already having the Purple Cloud Thunder Body, he had now ascended a level further, making it difficult for Magical Artifacts to injure his flesh.

"This is just the beginning. After absorbing all the fresh blood of Southeast Asia, my Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill will probably soar to the fifth or sixth level."

Su Jie could already foresee the future, when the blood of the entire Southeast Asia converged into his body, he would certainly break through to the Fifth Level of the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill, replacing all the blood in his body with Holy Blood, which would also allow him to use the great Divine Skill of Body Transformation Blood Sea. That would be the time when the true might of the Blood Sea Devouring Sky Demon Skill would be displayed.
