One Pound Meat, One More Attribute Point

Su Heng felt a darkness before his eyes, then a series of images appeared in his vision.

The experiences Ji Huaxi encountered were very mysterious, and as someone who had cultivated to the Realm Lord Realm, her spirit should have been in a very high state. Normally, she wouldn't have dreams, and the current situation revealed something extraordinarily unusual. Moreover, Su Heng couldn't fully grasp the intentions of the Descenders yet, so he was particularly cautious about this matter.

The images were chaotic.

Some things looked like child's drawings.

While others could be barely discerned.

Su Heng saw a huge Obelisk; pyramids erected on a black plain. At the top of the pyramids sat a throne cast in glazed glass, radiating mysterious light. Then there was a burning giant tree, whose roots were crawling with blood-red worms. Finally, there was an endless void, where colossal warships were traversing under the guidance of bloody light beams.

The images abruptly stopped.

Su Heng furrowed his brows and pondered seriously.

After a while, Ji Huaxi asked cautiously, "How is it, can you make out something from them?"

Indeed, combining recent experiences, Su Heng really had some conjectures from the images.

He first recounted some of the incidents that had occurred in the Original Blood River to Ji Huaxi, then shared the information he had learned from people like Ban Poluo.

Ji Huaxi was shocked.

Although vaguely aware of bits and pieces, it was the first time such complete and clear content was presented before her.

"I've long felt that the origin of humans in this world is somewhat odd, but I never expected the truth to be like this," Ji Huaxi shook her head slightly with a bittersweet smile, "When I advanced to Realm Lord during my ascension, I thought it was like reaching the summit, but it turned out to be just a frog in the well."

With a light chuckle, Su Heng comforted, "Being able to see the path ahead, what's there to be dissatisfied with."

"That's also true."

Ji Huaxi looked at him, her smile soft.

"So how should we handle this matter? Whether originating from the Original Blood River or those Descenders, we can't just sit idly by," said Ji Huaxi.

"That's indeed true," Su Heng nodded in agreement.

He told Ji Huaxi about the events in the Outer Sea, then presented his own speculations.

"Jialuo and Kulika died by my hand, yet there's been no reaction whatsoever from the Descenders, which is abnormal. They must be planning something big, so we must open the pathway as soon as possible to seize the initiative and secure an invincible position," Su Heng didn't know the Descenders' specific plans but could guess some clues.

Ji Huaxi couldn't be of much help with these matters, but still replied earnestly, "If there's anything you need, just give the word, and I will fully cooperate."

"Of course, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

...

...

...

When Su Heng returned to the Blood Realm, the Tong Shan Great Saint, who hadn't been seen for a long time, came forward with great respect.

His body was smeared with black blood, and he looked weary and travel-worn.

Disheveled as he might appear, his strength had grown further.

If when they first met the Tong Shan Great Saint just barely reached the bottomline of the Heavenly Awakening Realm, he was now at the average level within that realm.

At first listen, it didn't seem like much progress.

However, worth noting is that demons have a long lifespan.

Moreover, Tong Shan Great Saint was upright, strictly adhered to precepts, never indulging in wanton slaughter, and practiced the Profound Sect's True Method.

Under these premises, still being able to make such progress was quite impressive.

"Have you just returned from the Black Mist Mythical Battlefield?" Su Heng, with his keen perception, picked up on a familiar scent in the air, "What brings you to me this time?"

"Miss Li Hongxiu has recently issued a task to eliminate demons, with a very generous reward," Tong Shan Great Saint answered the first question.

Then, he took out a black jade bracelet from his bosom and offered it with both hands, "This is from Miss Li Hongxiu for you."

"Hmm, trouble you," Su Heng glanced at it and took the bracelet in hand.

The Tong Shan Great Saint's usually impassive face showed a touch of flattered astonishment, he bowed and respectfully backed away, only when he was out of the temple's door did he scuttle away with a thud.

Su Heng played with the bracelet the Tong Shan Great Saint brought, which was a spatial-type artifact. As a strand of spiritual power was injected into it, a vigorous blood qi came forth from it. This was obviously the accumulated Blood Food from recent times, meant to supply Su Heng's daily cultivation needs. The current Imperial was like a giant pyramid, and without a doubt, Su Heng was the man at the top of the food chain.

In wave after wave of reforms, millions of Cultivators provided offerings for Su Heng's daily cultivation.

The Mythical Battlefield was constantly expanding.

The downside was the reduction in living space, making life difficult for the people in several states.

But the benefits were also plenty, with an explosion in the number of Cultivators and a substantial increase in cultivation resources.

Especially after Su Heng completed several rounds of genetic transformation for all of humanity, their resistance to the Chaotic Power of the eternal heavens increased.

The initial difficult stage had passed, and as Ji Huaxi said, things were now on the rise, accumulating steadily for a stronger future. And all of this was instigated by Su Heng himself. After being so busy before, now reaping the fruits of his efforts was naturally taken for granted.

Although the current offerings weren't particularly abundant for Su Heng as of now.

But the advantage was that they could provide a steady and continuous supply.

Plus, it was foreseeable that as the Zhou Dynasty's power further increased, the offerings brought would also increase proportionally.
