Chapter 580 - 280: Deal! Blood Spear Enhanced! (Part 2)

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"Three pieces..."

Ye Mingqiu fell into hesitation, frowning, as if he were thinking about whether to accept the contract, whether to sell out his own teammates.

In the end, he reached a conclusion, staring righteously at Pure White Wings and the Feather Race behind him as he said, "Just three blood-type treasures and you think you can buy me off? Make me betray them? Those are my brothers-in-arms, my beloved friends and family!"

So we need to add more money, huh?

Pure White Wings caught the subtext in one go, and at the same time started doubting whether this guy had some ability to raise his Resistance through blood-type treasures. He had already noticed from the previous battle that the Blood Erosion Tyrant’s Abnormal Status Resistance was ridiculously high.

But that’s normal. If his Abnormal Status Resistance wasn’t high, he’d probably have been killed by the Cursed Equipment long ago, so his Resistance has to be high at every moment. This Resistance might be something converted from a certain Ability rather than his real Resistance.

Blood-type treasures seem likely to be the key for him to raise his Resistance. After all, his title is Blood Erosion Tyrant, related to blood, and both his killing intent and Battle Intent carry a bloody aura.

"Five pieces! Plus one month of transaction logs!"

"Deal!"

"Hoo~"

Pure White Wings quietly let out a breath of relief, while also feeling that he definitely took a loss. He didn’t even need to think about it: if he wasn’t taking a loss, the Blood Erosion Tyrant would never have agreed. Right now that guy is the dominant side; there’s no way he wouldn’t squeeze out more resources.

However, at the last moment he changed the friend log to transaction log, because if it’s a transaction log, he can see who the guy has traded with, making it easier to judge the situation.

The other party proposed friend logs; those would probably be fine, and might even have all kinds of random people added in to mislead him.

Very soon, Pure White Wings drafted the contract and completed it under Spirit Realm notarization.

He also easily obtained five Tier Five Tier Two blood-type treasures through his own channels. These things weren’t expensive to him, because what he provided weren’t Tier Two Divinity Level Authority Gods, pseudo-Gods and the like with Divine Attribute Dominator traits, but just some Ordinary blood collected from Tier Two Dominators.

The Feather Race has a lot of Tier Two powerhouses; he can just grab some blood. The request was only for Tier Two blood-type treasures, and he only needed to meet the minimum requirement. There’s no way he’d give the Blood Erosion Tyrant high-Quality blood.

[Transaction Completed]

Looking at the five additional blood-type treasures in his Storage Space, Ye Mingqiu immediately turned around and withdrew without even a split-second of delay.

On the spot, Pure White Wings looked at the logs in front of him, and his face gradually darkened.

The Blood Erosion Tyrant’s transaction logs...

Were a blank page! Nothing at all!

As expected?

Pure White Wings just felt gloomy, but didn’t Break Defense, because this had been in his expectations. He instead switched to the friend interface, where the Elemental Life camp’s Eight Desolates Eastern Emperor Venerable friend request record was clearly displayed right before his eyes.

More importantly, the time when that friend request was accepted was very recent—just half a day ago, right before the Blood Erosion Tyrant came to Eternal Day City looking for them.

With such a coincidence, how could he not overthink it?

"Elemental Life camp, huh? Did they proactively gift him something so there’s no transaction record?" Pure White Wings muttered under his breath.

Either way, no matter what, the Feather Race’s main base has to be relocated, and it has to be done immediately, not a moment’s delay.

....

In the distance

Ye Mingqiu used Riddle Gauze to hide his figure, sensing from several kilometers away the hostility coming from the Feather Race members, and roughly judging changes in their position through the fluctuations in Hostility.

He moved about aimlessly in midair, showing no apparent goal, but in reality he was using Hostility Perception to lock onto the Feather Race’s location.

Hostility Perception is way too useful!

Every Feather Race member holding hostility toward him was no different from an auto-reporting mole. After being squeezed for a pile of resources by the Blood Erosion Tyrant, how could they not harbor hostility? Not only do they have it, it’s extremely intense—this hostility fully exposes their location.

Two days later, Ye Mingqiu sat inside a cave, marked the Feather Race’s new main base on his map, and sent it to Tang Ruobing.

Divine Monarch: [x, y, z]

Divine Monarch: Location of the Feather Race’s new main base. Use it as you see fit.

Broken Star: OK.

Closing the message interface, Ye Mingqiu then took out the Blood Spear from his Storage Space. The scarlet Battle Spear gave off a biting cold gleam in the cave, and the air itself seemed to fill with the scent of blood.

It was craving fresh battle!

"No rush to fight—eat first."

Ye Mingqiu spoke with a grin as he took out the five Tier Two blood-type treasures he had extorted... traded from the Feather Race, placing them before the Blood Spear, letting it absorb them one by one.

The Blood Spear’s blood Light dimmed, then began devouring the blood. During the devouring process, the Light on it flickered on and off, the Blood Crystal Patterns pulsed like a beating heart, and its aura was growing stronger, though the magnitude of growth wasn’t large.

Its foundation is too strong and it has already absorbed the blood of too many powerhouses. A few Ordinary Tier Two blood-type treasures can’t trigger another metamorphosis, but they’re enough to replenish new Energy for the Blood Spear and let it keep growing stronger.

Seated in the cave, Ye Mingqiu took out a popular science book, "Three Years to Tier One, Five Years to Tier Two," silently flipping through it to learn.

Everyday study looks useless on the surface, like a pointless waste of time. But without this studying, Ye Mingqiu wouldn’t have been able, at the first moment the Feather Race used a team teleport Ability, to determine that their teleport range wasn’t far.

Only when you need knowledge do you realize how useful it is. Normally study doesn’t feel urgent, simply because you can’t feel what use knowledge has; even after learning it you don’t feel much improvement.

Time ticked by....

The Blood Spear’s glow began to change....

[Hint: Blood Spear has absorbed a large amount of blood-type Energy, raising its Enhancement Level to +9. [Destruction] traits have begun to recover.]

Attack Power: 452-601 → 632-841

Durability: 1120 → 1280

"It actually restored the Enhancement Level. These Tier Two blood bars have pretty good Effect. If I get the chance, I really should scam them for more next time." Looking at the Blood Spear’s stat changes, Ye Mingqiu’s smile grew even brighter.

Right now the Blood Spear’s Attack Power was insanely high. Even though it’s only a Tier One Weapon, its actual Attack Power was already closing in on Tier Two, perfectly suited for Ye Mingqiu to show his strength.

"Clatter, clatter..."

The chain on the Blood Spear’s tail shifted, naturally winding around Ye Mingqiu’s body. The force was gentle and intimate, while the Blood Crystal Patterns followed the chain, spreading along his arms and body, scarlet Energy flowing into him from within the Blood Spear.

[Hint: Blood Spear has fed back a surge of pure blood Energy to you. Life Limit +500, body Defense Power +16, Elemental Resistance +12]

The increase wasn’t much, but the main reason wasn’t that the Blood Spear was stingy; rather, Ye Mingqiu’s Attributes were already close to his Body Basic Potential limit. Going forward, raising his Attributes would only get harder and harder.

And this is precisely the key shackle limiting those Top Dominators’ upper combat ceiling. If they had no potential limit and could infinitely grow stronger through resources, each of them would have soared into Godhood long ago, and wouldn’t be stuck at only thirty to forty units of strength.

Ye Mingqiu rested a hand on the Blood Spear, his smile growing more radiant as he said, "Tomorrow the second Spiritual Pearl will descend. I want you to put on a show with me—pretend to be a top-tier cursed Fierce Weapon, and act as savage as you can."

The Blood Spear straightened up, its chain clattering, as if saying: Do we even need to act for that?

"I mean, pretend to be fierce toward me."

The Blood Spear’s chain dropped to the ground, falling into thought, implying: Okay, that actually is a bit difficult.

"We can talk it through. Tomorrow you do this and this... and that and that...."

....

The next day, a Spirit Realm notification chimed.

[Hint: Spiritual Pearl has been distributed. Exact location is shown on the map]

Ye Mingqiu picked up the Blood Spear and walked out of the cave, a brilliant smile blooming on his face.
