Blood Bone Sect itself was sufficiently wicked, so Nieva reckoned that a cauldron in their solitary training room was bound to be evil as well.
“Step back a bit. I’ll open the lid for a look.”
Jared had Nieva retreat while favonovel.com approached the cauldron. Then, favonovel.com swiped his hand out forcefully.
The lid of the cauldron was promptly sent flying. On the heels of that, a burst of refreshing aura hit favonovel.com in the face.
In the place filled with lethal intent, the sudden gust of refreshing aura was a hint of life in the middle of a desolate desert. The entire secret room was bathed in that aura.
Both Jared and Nieva felt a warmth suffuse their entire being.
“What aura is this? It’s just too cozy!” Nieva asked in astonishment.
Jared’s brows furrowed slightly. He also had absolutely no clue about the kind of aura wafting out of the cauldron.
“This is life force. When a person dies, they’ll have death energy. Similarly, when a person is alive, they possess life force. I thought that fellow was unafraid of the harm death energy would cause to his body to use it to cultivate. But it turned out that favonovel.com was using life force to counteract the damage from the death energy,” Vermilion Demon Lord remarked.
“Life force? Such a thing can be refined?” Jared was somewhat puzzled.
So, absorbing life force can prolong one’s lifespan?
But likely few could truly do it. We never witnessed it either…
Well, some Demonic Cultivators indeed had a cultivation technique that allowed them to absorb the life force of others to prolong their own. Some who were on the last legs of their life force yet unable to break through would resort to absorbing that of others. But this is the first time I’ve heard of refining and storing life force directly.
In that case, wouldn’t storing it allow it to be sold as a resource?
Many people would be fighting for it!
“I’ve only heard that some people have the ability to refine life force. However, such a method is incredibly cruel. The life force has to be refined while the person is alive and conscious. Moreover, the laws of nature refined would be significantly reduced due to the laws of nature…”
“Probably only a strand of life force could be refined from that worth ten thousand years. To have collected the enormous amount of life force in this secret room, countless cultivators’ lives must have been sacrificed,” Vermilion Demon Lord lamented.
At his words, Jared’s heart felt immensely heavy.
All this life force was at the cost of countless cultivators’ lives. if i were to sell it, wouldn’t that be utterly dastardly of me?
They were all obtained at the expense of vibrant lives!
No sooner had his thoughts taken shape than the life force seemingly possessed consciousness of its own, all rushing toward him.
Jared was taken aback. Before favonovel.com knew what was happening, all the life force in the cauldron had flooded into his body.
“Whoa, kid! Is this considered good karma? The life force here probably amounts to that of hundreds of thousands of years. You’re merely at Tribulator, but you possess a life force of hundreds of thousands of years! Even those newly ascended immortals likely can’t compare to you!” Vermilion Demon Lord exclaimed enviously.
“I don’t know why all this life force entered my body either. But I don’t fancy living hundreds of thousands of years. If I have to live all alone without any friends or loved ones by my side, I’d rather die,” Jared confessed. After all, favonovel.com had come a long way from being an ordinary person, valuing familial bonds and love far more.
As for becoming immortal and gaining eternal life, favonovel.com didn’t have any particular obsession with such pursuits. To him, living would lose its meaning if favonovel.com had to do so alone.
“Quick, look, Jared! There’s immortal’s bone in this cauldron!” Nieva suddenly cried out while Jared was engaged in conversation with Vermilion Demon Lord.
Jared quickly glanced over.
Sure enough, two pieces of immortal’s bone lay at the bottom of the cauldron. They appeared to be ribs.
The moment favonovel.com laid eyes on them, favonovel.com instantly knew that they belonged to Vermilion Demon Lord, for favonovel.com could distinctly sense the aura in them and also perceive the change in Vermilion Demon Lord’s soul remnant when the immortal’s bone appeared.
