Chapter 738 - Blood Transfusion
Chapter 738 Blood Transfusion
Li Mu thought that Bai Jun the God of War would launch a desperate counterattack after giving the order.
After all, judging from the battle in the past, it was impossible for the giant dragon-eating ape to defeat the ancestors of the six major clans alone.
The ancestors of the six major clans thought the same way.
They were ready to accept the challenge.
The divine blood would have the greatest power and the best effect only when Bai Jun the God of War was enraged to the extreme and his blood was burning hot in a battle.
However, something unexpected happened.
Bai Jun the God of War chose to retreat.
He did not choose to fight. His body rapidly shrank to the same size as that of a normal human being. He reached out his hand, grabbed Li Mu, who had been hiding behind the giant stone pillar, and jumped on the back of the nine-headed divine bird.
He made those moves in an instant.
“Let’s go!” he shouted.
At the same time, more divine blood spurted out from the cut in his palm and dripped onto the nine-headed divine bird’s back.
The energy contained in the divine blood, like a flame, instantly burned away all the black threads that controlled the nine-headed divine bird, freeing the bird from the control of the ancestors of the six major clans.
The bird’s magical power was recovering.
He seemed to understand the thoughts of Bai Jun the God of War. He flew out of the battlefield at a very high speed carrying Li Mu and Bai Jun the God of War on his back.
“What?”
“Has the God of War… escaped?”
“This…”
The ancestors of the six major clans did not understand at first.
The God of War of the Dark Yellow Army was known to be invincible, and he never retreated no matter what formidable enemies he was facing on the battlefield. How could he choose to escape instead of fighting to the death after being provoked to such an extent?
It was completely inconsistent with what they knew about him.
Boom!
The giant dragon-eating ape was charging at them.
He picked up a stone mountain and clenched his fists. Countless flickering runes instantly refined the stone mountain into a powerful weapon. Then, he threw the stone mountain out, as if he were going to smash the sky, producing numerous space-time vortices.
“Damn it!”
The ancestor of the Heavenly Deity Clan was shocked and enraged.
The ancestors of the Blue Wave Clan and the East Forest Clan said loudly, “Chase them! We can’t let them run away!”
However, the strength of the giant dragon-eating ape seemed to have resumed to the previous invincible state before he died. His physical body was extremely strong, and he held them back for some time.
“Kill him!”
“Get rid of him.”
Seeing that the nine-headed divine bird had flown out of sight, the ancestors of the six major clans were all enraged. They performed their own magical skills and ultimate techniques to attack the giant dragon-eating ape.
“Ah-ah-ah…” The giant dragon-eating ape roared angrily.
He had gone berserk. With his strong will and his physical body, in which the divine blood was running, he tried his best to delay them for as long as possible.
Everything displayed in the image in the sky made him feel angry.
Sometimes, the power of anger was immeasurable.
He bore the brunt of the attack with his physical body. Instead of backing down, he rushed into the middle of the ancestors of the six major clans.
That was called charging the enemy.
Back then, an order to charge the enemy in the Dark Yellow Army was equivalent to a one-way trip to death. In the final battle at that time, countless peers and friends charged at the enemy without returning and died bravely.
Back then, as the number one master of the Star Ape Clan, the giant dragon-eating ape, Rock, charged at the enemy to cover his comrades-in-arms and died in the fight.
Today, he understood what the commander-in-chief meant when he received the latter’s order.
When he charged at the enemy, he felt like he had returned to the old glorious days.
It wouldn’t matter that he died again for the sake of the Dark Yellow Army and his clan.
On the blue mountain.
The Gold and Silver King felt her vision blurring for a moment, and then Li Mu, who was originally by her side, suddenly disappeared.
“Bro? Wait for me.”
The Gold and Silver King looked at the backs of Li Mu and Bai Jun the God of War, and followed them without any hesitation.
She felt that she might be in great danger if she stayed.
Moreover, Li Mu knew how to break the bloodline shackles that restricted her evolution, so she had to keep up with Li Mu. Otherwise, she would probably never achieve her goal of becoming a master above the king-level or even a god.
She soared into the air. About two or three breaths of time later, countless white-bone Resentful Spirits instantly swarmed out of the ground and rose into the air, and the flourishing green grasses and trees that covered the ground disappeared like melting snow, revealing the area full of death aura and white bones.
The blue mountain turned into a pillar of bones.
Countless white-bone Resentful Spirits and thousands of Resentful Spirit Kings madly pounced on the ancestors of the six major clans and engulfed them.
“Ah, damn it. Run.”
Huangfu Chengdao was scared out of his wits when he saw this scene. He immediately turned around to escape.
He was severely frightened by the sea of white-bone Resentful Spirits.
Guan Zhen held him back and said in a low voice, “What are you scared of? The ancestors are all here. Stay calm. Don’t be a coward in their presence. You have to overcome your fears and control yourself at such a critical moment.”
In fact, he was very doubtful whether Huangfu Chengdao would become a qualified successor of the Heavenly Deity Clan.
Huangfu Chengdao looked pale. He managed to stand still.
“You have the bloodline of the Deity Clan in your body. Are you from the chaotic battlefield?”
Bai Jun the God of War looked at Li Mu, standing on the back of the nine-headed divine bird.
It was not until then that Li Mu saw the face of Bai Jun the God of War clearly.
He had the appearance and facial features of a typical yellow-skinned oriental. His facial features were similar to those of the people living in the Guanzhong region during the Pre-Qin Period. Li Mu was sure of his origin because he resembled the Terracotta Warriors very much.
Such an appearance left a good impression on Li Mu.
Li Mu was born in the Guanzhong region. He felt like seeing a fellow-townsman when he saw the face of Bai Jun the God of War clearly.
However, that was not important.
In response to the question from Bai Jun the God of War, Li Mu nodded and said, “I’m from the earth.” He explained that the origin of the earth was closely related to the galaxy on that final battlefield.
Bai Jun the God of War frowned. “The chaotic battlefield was sealed by the gods. That Star Region has no Spiritual Qi of Heaven and the earth or cosmic tides, so it is not a suitable place in terms of practicing martial arts. Back then, the gods set up that bounded region, where the practice of martial arts was forbidden, in order to avoid the invasion of the six major clans. How did you manage to get out of that region?”
If it hadn’t been for the fact that he had been secretly observing Li Mu and had seen everything that happened when Li Mu was chased by the enemies, Li Mu would probably have been taken for a pawn in the conspiracy of the six major clans and killed.
Li Mu was surprised. “How is that possible? I am not the first person to get out of the earth. There were some ancient people that got out of the earth.”
He explained how ancient sages like Laozi and Li Bai got out of the earth through the divine path and left behind their traces and legends in the Ziwei Star Zone.
“Did such things really happen?”
Bai Jun the God of War was a little surprised.
He thought for a moment and then said, “Perhaps the gods left the back door open so that the descendants of the Dark Yellow Army could practice martial arts. It seems that when the gods sealed the chaotic battlefield back then, they left some room for maneuver.”
The means of those gods were much more powerful than his.
However, it was meaningless to pursue the matter any further at this time.
Bai Jun the God of War knew that Rock and the white-bone Resentful Spirits in the mountain of bones could not stop the ancestors of the six major clans for too long. They would soon catch up with them.
Therefore, he had to make the best use of his time.
“I need to test your bloodline.”
As Bai Jun the God of War spoke, he raised his hand. Li Mu felt a chill in his chest and saw a splash of blood. Bai Jun the God of War punctured his flesh with a finger and took out a drop of blood with the fingertip.
Li Mu was shocked.
Li Mu’s physical strength was very terrifying. An ordinary divine weapon could only leave a white mark on his body after it hit him. However, Bai Jun the God of War punctured his skin and flesh easily with a finger.
How terrifying his power was!
Li Mu could clearly feel that Bai Jun the God of War did not use his internal Qi just now. That was to say, he broke down Li Mu’s defense merely relying on his physical strength.
His physical strength was indeed greater than that of Li Mu.
No one knew what secret method Bai Jun the God of War used. That drop of Li Mu’s blood on his fingertip gave off dazzling golden divine light. Inside the drop of blood, there were very thin chains shining with runic light moving like swimming dragons.
“That’s actually…”
The look in the eyes of Bai Jun the God of War suddenly changed when he looked at Li Mu again.
A surge of excitement ran through him.
“Ha-ha, you actually have such a legendary physical quality, which is comparable to that of that master in ancient times. Ha-ha-ha, I have never unexpected that I would meet you. It seems that the Heavens do not want the Dark Yellow Army to become extinct…”
He laughed loudly.
Li Mu vaguely guessed something.
Bai Jun the God of War asked, “What’s your name?”
Li Mu answered respectfully, “My name is Li Mu.”
“Li Mu? It’s a good name. In our language, ‘Mu’ means inspecting and guarding the people and the Star River… Li Mu, listen to me. I can’t hold on for too long. The divine blood in my body has been nurtured for thousands of years. Now, it is even more powerful than the blood I had when I was in my prime. I will transfer my divine blood into your body to refresh your marrow. When you have completely refined it, you will have a divine body, and it will lay a solid foundation for you to become a god.”
With that, he inserted his right hand directly into his chest, grabbed his heart, and took it out of his chest. The fragrant smell of blood permeated the air.
Li Mu took a closer look at the heart and found that it was not beating at all.
The heart was purple-gold in color. Even the blood was purple-gold, giving off a strange, faint scent of medicinal herbs.
Li Mu was greatly shocked.
When he was about to say something, Bai Jun the God of War said, “Clear your mind and keep calm. Etherealize your Divine Consciousness. Get rid of distracting thoughts. Keep your Qi as still as a mountain and make your Qi flow like water… Focus, stay calm, and gather Qi!”
He pressed his left hand on the top of Li Mu’s head as he gave the instructions.
A strange feeling welled up and surged through Li Mu, helping him get rid of all the distracting thoughts in his mind. He felt drowsy, sleepy, confused yet sober. He closed his eyes, feeling like he forgot some things and remembered some things.
At the same time, the purple-gold heart in the right hand of Bai Jun the God of War was shining brightly, and his blood was condensing. Numerous thin beams of runic light were drifting and swirling. In the end, the entire heart turned into two drops of extremely pure purple-gold blood.
“Go.”
He opened his mouth and blew the two drops of purple-gold blood, which were like two purple suns, toward Li Mu’s glabella.
When the first drop of purple-gold blood fell on Li Mu’s glabella, it instantly seeped through the skin like snow melting in clear water.
Bai Jun the God of War nodded in satisfaction.
However, to his surprise, the second drop of blood bounced back when it came into contact with Li Mu’s glabella, and it could no longer be merged into Li Mu’s body.
“Hmm?”
Bai Jun the God of War was greatly surprised…
