Chapter 1709: Chapter 1709

Du You, who was hidden, was not completely unaware of things. On the contrary, the seventh-tier undead he sent out were compiling various information at all times and passing it to Du You.

Du You didn’t expect that without his guidance, people outside had come up with three versions on their own.

"It’s truly surprising. When high-level protagonists gather together, they’re actually not much different from ordinary people. Especially when it comes to spreading rumors, it’s really too easy."

It’s not just a matter of disbelief; some people have varying thoughts and intentions, as simple as that. There are also those who are deliberately malicious, or those who have grudges against others, who always deliberately twist some things.

Thus, despite the few experts, their ability to create and spread rumors is definitely much greater than that of ordinary people.

Du You didn’t pay attention to these things. After Lin Yushi used the Ten Thousand Arrow Barrier to seal the entire cave, he took out the corpse of the giant dragon. There was still some lingering destructive power on the corpse, which would be bad if exposed.

Back then, many people saw him take the giant dragon’s corpse away.

It’s precisely because of this that many people believe it was a self-directed play by the giant dragon, because no one saw the dragon’s dead body. So, who knows whether what was taken away was a corpse or a living one. Even those seventh-tier dragons had their corpses destroyed, leaving nothing behind, making it very likely a deliberate illusion created by the dragon.

"We are now at tier eight. I didn’t expect the enhancement of the Giant Dragon Bloodline not only to be possible through the blood; the entire dragon’s corpse can be smelted. It’s good this way, leaving no evidence."

"Will smelting the entire corpse have an effect?" Lin Yushi asked curiously.

"It definitely has an effect. Smelting the entire corpse increases the effect by five times compared to just extracting the blood. It seems that this time I can elevate the bloodline to tier eight all at once. Our safety is ensured."

After thinking about it, Du You said: "When Xi Qianxue and the others contact you, just let them rest assured."

For now, Du You couldn’t be disturbed. He also didn’t know how long this enhancement of bloodline power would take.

The two sisters started to keep vigil around, while Du You placed his hand on the dragon corpse. The blood within him began to flow naturally, and the dragon corpse in front of him started to smelt. As the bloodline power increased, its merging with Du You’s own essence grew higher and higher. Although it was still not a human bloodline, it barely showed any difference now.

However, on the panel, this bloodline was still a separate entity, apart from Du You himself.

Gradually, the Black Dragon in front of him began to dissolve, starting with the blood. Blood was constantly extracted, then through transformations even Du You couldn’t comprehend, he could only see his own origin power contacting and smelting some special things within.

Then these special things were transformed, assimilated by his origin power, absorbed bit by bit into his body.

Next, the blood boiled, flowing faster. Who knows how long it had passed, but the temperature of his blood started to rise, and its quality began to improve. Du You could feel his power ascending.

This was not an illusion but a substantial enhancement.

Day after day passed, this smelting process took over ten days in total. When Du You awoke, he felt quite pleased, not expecting it to consume so little time; initially, he thought it would take months.

After all, the stronger the power, the more troublesome the enhancement usually is. There was no helping it, as having a special bloodline at tier eight and being able to continue enhancing was very rare. There was no data on it, so Du You could only rely on guesses.

"Master, did you succeed?" The two sisters welcomed Du You with joy when they saw him coming out.

"Du You, has your bloodline really been raised to tier eight? Were there any differences?" At this time, Li Mengyao, who had just communicated with them, also heard these words, and the people on the other side crowded in front of the special communicator.

Du You smiled and said: "The enhancement is quite obvious, the data on the panel didn’t change, no new skills were added, the proportion remains the same. The bloodline is more closely integrated with myself now, but it seems there’s something special in the bloodline being nurtured. I don’t know what that thing is; perhaps I’ll know in the future."

"The direct enhancement of the bloodline now is my origin power. With the enhancement of origin power, it’s equivalent to all Laws being elevated, it’s not just a simple improvement of a single Law. My power has increased significantly."

Although his current rank hadn’t increased, still at level 74, Du You knew that his enhanced power couldn’t be viewed purely in terms of level. Now, he probably could easily defeat his former self.

Reaching tier eight with a high-level bloodline, it truly is extraordinary.

"It seems we can’t give up on our bloodlines either." Xi Qianxue and Li Mengyao exchanged glances. The two originally intended to abandon the enhancement of their bloodlines due to its difficulty.

But noticing Du You’s transformation, they changed their minds. What needs to be done now is not to catch up with Du You, but not to create trouble for him. Thus, greater self-strength is always beneficial.

This strength enhancement isn’t superficial. With a calm attitude, these individuals gradually focused on solidifying their foundations, ensuring they had stronger capabilities at every level, just like Du You had done. There was no chance of catching up anyway, so they might as well prepare for a more distant future. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥

Here, there’s no way to conduct experiments, and this world has become increasingly weird, so Du You didn’t plan on engaging in long-term closed-door cultivation here. Instead, he opted to venture outside to continue collecting various cultivation resources.

After some deliberation, Du You set out again with the two sisters, embarking on the journey of resource gathering.

However, due to the special circumstances now, Du You couldn’t just attack anyone he saw, nor could he go hunting as soon as he met people. Nowadays, who knows how many people are monitoring each other’s situations. If discovered, it would be troublesome.

An individual wreaking havoc and slaughtering would be like a firefly in the dark when facing a fully integrated alliance organization, and it would be the kind that people wish to eliminate quickly.

Du You mainly targeted the Divine Creatures, which lacked intelligence, so hunting them wouldn’t be overseen by anyone.

As for dragons, Du You didn’t engage in large-scale hunting, but when encountered, he would fight them, considering it an opportunity to enhance his understanding of the Laws. Before the opponent realized they couldn’t do anything to him and attempted to find support, Du You would retreat, not giving any chance to the opponents.
