End of the Magic Era - Chapter 1073
Chapter 1073: Pure Mana
Moreover, the Beast God’s Blood had a special importance in the Raging Flame Battlefield, making it even more precious.
Lin Yun even guessed that the Beast God’s Blood could be traded for in the temple because of the existence of the Greater Raging Flame Overlord and his upcoming return. They must have left Beast God’s Blood behind in order to nurture even more Heaven Rank powerhouses.
That way, the Raging Flame Beastmen wouldn’t be defenseless when the Greater Raging Flame Overlord finally struggled free of his seal.
Furthermore, the destruction of the Raging Flame Plane might be avoided if one of these Raging Flame Beastmen could advance to the Greater Overlord realm before the Greater Raging Flame Overlord freed himself.
In the future, the coordinates of the Raging Flame Plane would disappear in the void following the resurrection of the Beast God. That event might have a lot to do with this.
But it didn’t have too much use in Noscent. Aside from helping with the Extraordinary transformations, the blood wasn’t too important to humans.
After all, using that kind of thing to advance to the Heaven Rank would always leave behind side effects because humans didn’t have the Beast God’s bloodline.
These days, Lin Yun kept studying the spells of the Book of Mantras, and he inferred many special incantations from it. Many fragments of incantations could be re-assembled to research the Beast God’s Blood.
Knowing that the Beast God’s Blood definitely wasn’t simple, Lin Yun made a lot of preparations.
He was more or less done with the spell research and had some accomplishments in the new extraction process. At that time, Lin Yun opened the Demiplane’s Planar Path and went into his Demiplane.
The entire Demiplane seemed to have completely changed… It was now filled with a bloody mist.
The alchemy laboratory had to be devoid of it. That place needed the purest environment, and any impurities might cause the experiment to fail.
That bloody mist was the remnant power of the Beast God’s Blood. When he compounded the Golden Temptation, he had used an alchemical solution to wash down the Beast God’s Blood, and its useful components were refined to form the Golden Temptation.
The bloody mist filling the entire Demiplane was emitting formidable power, and that power was slowly merging with the Demiplane.
The power was so strong that it had already exceeded the limits of what the Demiplane could digest, and it thus transformed into a bloody mist covering it.
Lin Yun frowned as he looked at the bloody mist. As he thought about those days of research, he became increasingly certain that the Beast God’s Blood couldn’t be so simple.
Standing at the center of the Demiplane, Lin Yun closed his eyes and sensed the entire Demiplane. He sensed the bloody mist, the way it was merging with the Demiplane, and the changes appearing within the Demiplane.
After a long time, Lin Yun opened his eyes, and in an instant, the entire Demiplane started shaking. A wisp of strong mind power covered the entire Demiplane… It felt as if a God had descended.
Gales suddenly rose within the Demiplane. These gales were like pairs of hands driving out the bloody mist to push them towards the center of the Demiplane
Slowly, the bloody mist disappeared from the edge of the Demiplane, unveiling the original appearance of the Demiplane. It was like a circle continuously contracting as it kept converging the bloody mist towards the center.
By the time the bloody mist reached the center, it had already turned into a pillar of bloody mist with the gales revolving around it like a tornado cage that was forcibly keeping the bloody mist in its eye.
Lin Yun extended his hand in a grabbing motion, and the air around the bloody mist instantly stopped flowing. Everything here was under Lin Yun’s control, and after his gesture, the pillar of bloody mist started slowly shrinking.
After a few seconds, the bloody mist was compressed into a sphere, and its terrifying power kept on fluctuating. It would compare to the burst of an Extraordinary Spell if it exploded.
Lin Yun frowned and had the power of the Demiplane keep compressing that four-meter-wide sphere of blood.
That sphere of blood created by the convergence of the bloody mist kept stirring for no less than ten minutes until a thread of thick, sticky blood condensed in the center. At that moment, the turbulence in condensing the sphere suddenly disappeared.
That condensed sphere of blood kept on shrinking, and after three seconds, it thoroughly condensed into a thick and sticky drop of blood.
That drop of blood looked like metal, and it would only slightly deform when pinched.
Lin Yun calmly used his perception to feel that drop of blood, and it seemed no different from the previous drop of Beast God’s Blood.
After a few minutes, Lin Yun seemed to realize something.
‘It turns out I was correct! I truly didn’t guess wrongly. Based on what I remembered reading, the compounded Golden Temptation would cause almost no great side-effects apart from making the latter half of the Heaven realm harder to break through.’
After breaking through, the user wouldn’t be affected by the things within the Beast God’s Blood, no matter their race.
Sure enough, it was because it was refining the fragments of Laws, and everything else wasn’t used, so it was expelled as impurities.
This was why the Beast God with his formidable Bloodline Power couldn’t alter his own bloodline.
The most fundamental process for mages to complete the Extraordinary transformation was to comprehend their Law and form their foundation. After their Law foundation was established, they could mobilize the power of the world’s Laws.
They had to use that to complete the most difficult Extraordinary transformation. For humans, it could be said that it was unrelated to talent. The comprehension of Laws was the most important part.
The pure Law fragments within the Beast God’s Blood, even though broken, came from a God-level existence. It would naturally easily help a mage complete the Extraordinary transformation.
But apart from the fragments of Laws, the most important part contained within the Beast God’s blood was power. That drop of blood was a drop of pure power.
Losing the fragments of Law made the drop of blood collapse during the alchemy process. The blood that may have contained fragments of the Beast God’s consciousness had dissipated before condensing again, only leaving pure power behind.
If there was nothing unexpected, that pure power would slowly merge into the Demiplane, and the Demiplane would once again mature.
But using it to nurture the Demiplane was too wasteful. Moreover, the effects wouldn’t be very good.
Lin Yun looked at the drop of blood in his hand and faintly shook his head.
The Demiplane didn’t need such pure power to grow.
Nurturing the Demiplane was like growing farm crops. If only pure water was used to irrigate the farm crops, even if they didn’t die, the harvest wouldn’t be too good.
Plants required a lot of water, but more importantly, they needed all kinds of other substances contained within the water. They were the reasons that the crops could grow well. Water, to a certain extent, only guaranteed that the farm crops wouldn’t die.
Similarly, a growing Demiplane required a lot of mana. This was a key factor in the growth of a Natural Demiplane. But aside from mana, they also needed all kinds of “impurities” within the mana.
Mana Vines were the biggest shortcut to the growth of a Demiplane. This wasn’t only because they could tear apart a large amount of mana from the void, but also because, in addition to mana, Void Storms and Elemental Storms had a lot of impurities.
To humans, these traces were impurities, but they were the most crucial elements required for the growth of the Demiplane.
Just like how manure helped with the growth of plants.
The Mana Vines guaranteed that the Demiplane’s growth would be comprehensive and that it would contain various other elements to guarantee its diversity. If it was only fed pure power, the Demiplane might end up like some Elemental Planes.
It would have extreme environments, extreme species, and apart from the size and capacity of energy, there would be no possibility of improvement.
This kind of absorption of various powers was the most crucial part. It was the foundation for the biodiversity born later in the Demiplane.
This was the foundation of the Laws.
Thus, although that pure power could let the Demiplane grow, it wasn’t particularly useful for that and would be a huge waste. Lin Yun intended to use that pure power somewhere else.
There were many ways of using that kind of pure energy. Lin Yun had many such methods in his mind, but this kind of thing was too rare. Pure energy without any impurities would rarely appear.
Even the energies crystalized within Heaven Magic Beasts’ mana crystals weren’t that pure. The mana of mages also couldn’t be so pure.
In either case, they would have a trace of the owner or some other things. It wouldn’t affect them, but it would be impure power to others or when used for other things.
The pure power from this blood was universal… It could be used anywhere.
Put in an array, it could let the array exert its maximum power, and even exceed the limits of its power.
It was just like the difference between spells and Ultimate Spells. Ordinary mana crystals or other things couldn’t display this kind of power.
Letting his subordinates absorb that pure power could also cut down the process of accumulating mana.
That pure power simply didn’t need to be transformed. It was like a white canvas, and any color could be added onto it.
There were too many available methods… To make good use of that pure energy, Lin Yun had to study it carefully.
