Chapter 370: 370
Bloodletting was a technique very different from any other technique Xue Wei had ever used before .
He knew of it, but he had never tried it before because he did not feel that it was all that useful .
Bloodletting was a technique that could be used against humans and beasts alike . It drew out the essence blood of an opponent and conjured it into a small bead-like object .
When Xue Wei consumed this bead, he would become capable of absorbing a certain amount of strength from the opponent .
If the opponent was stronger than him, only a fraction of their energy could be absorbed, and if the opponent were weaker than himself, the power he would gain would be insufficient to do much of a change .
As such, the technique seemed rather useless as it was most suitable to use against someone of equal strength, but right now, he did not have much choice .
If he could lower the Queen Bee"s attack just a little, their chance for survival was even bigger .
The Reaping of the Full Moon landed squarely on the Queen Bee"s body, knocking her far back, blood could be seen on her plump body .
Seeing that blood had been drawn, Xue Wei"s eyes suddenly turned red . Strange energy shrouded him in red mist-like energy, and swiftly the mist moved towards the Queen Bee .
Although he was unable to control the beasts within the Ascended"s Realm, he was after all a Sovereign Beast, and the energy within his body was bursting out, putting a bloodline suppression onto the Scarlet Queen Bee .
A strange scene appeared in the eyes of everyone watching, and the Queen Bee felt how her strength was slowly vanis.h.i.+ng from her body, making her lethargic .
Blood started slithering as if it was a snake, oozing out of the wound, and soon it gathered in a very s.h.i.+ny blood-red bead, which then shot towards Xue Wei .
"Attack her now, now is the weakest time!" Xue Wei growled as he popped the blood bead into his mouth .
Strength instantly burst within his body . Although Bloodletting only had taken a fraction of her strength, a fraction was an immense boost to Xue Wei, and he felt how his entire body turned light .
Reaping of the Full Moon!
Shadowless Kill!
Stormbreaking Fist!
Holy Heaven Palm!
Wood Qi Detonation!
Fire Qi Detonation!
A myriad of attacks landed on the body of the Queen Bee, all of them landing right on the wound that had been created by Hei Gou with his first Reaping of the Full Moon .
Now the attacks rained down upon the bee, and she was unable to hold on, a whimper escaped her, and she lay exhausted on the ground, on her last breath .
"Your turn," Xue Wei turned to Ling Xiao, who grasped his staff with a determined expression .
He then moved to the Queen Bee and began taming her . She was much stronger than Ling Xiao, and thus, her resistance was to be expected . However, she had been beaten black and blue; she could only use her crumbling mind to put up a final defense .
Blood started seeping out of the corner of Ling Xiao"s mouth, but he was not giving up .
The dao of dependance descended, scaring the other experts silly . They had never expected that this man was capable of controlling a dao!
No one said anything; the pin-drop silence lasted for a full hour before Ling Xiao finally rose to his feet .
His face was pale, while his lips were stained with blood, but a smile flitted across his expression within a moment, "it was a success!"
"Good!" Xue Wei was ecstatic . He found some healing remedies and fed the Scarlet Queen Bee some pills, after which he poured some elixir on the wound .
"Take it into the beast tag," Xue Wei ordered, and Ling Xiao nodded . There were already two beasts within the beast tag, the aligator-like beast from the Thunder Twilight Zone and Xue Fu .
"According to our deal, we will divide the scarlet honey as we had agreed upon," Xue Wei said, and the other team finally felt a sense of relief .
They had invested so much in this fight, but their harvest was also plentiful . Although they could not take the Scarlet Bee Queen with them, they got an amazing amount of Scarlet Honey .
The rest of the honey, alongside the actual beehive, was left to Xue Wei . He quickly shared the honey with everyone from his group, before the beehive was thrown into the beast tag . Now the scarlet bee queen could continue to produce scarlet honey for them, and she could also give birth to an army of scarlet bees for them .
The leader of the other family stepped forward . "It was a pleasure working with you this time," he said as he cupped his hands, "I hope we will meet again at a later time . Should you ever reach the Hanyang Continent, come look for the Qing family . "
Xue Wei was not being overly polite but nodded his head . "I will," he promised . It was still unknown what continents he would visit in the future, so having a friend was not too bad .
The two groups quickly split up and moved in their own directions . Xue Wei led his group further towards the southeast, while the others were heading southwest .
The spring had mainly herbs and medicinal flowers, while the autumn had an abundance of spirit fruits and berries .
Either direction would be beneficial to walk, but due to not wanting to steal one another"s items, they quickly went their separate ways .
"What are our plans now?" One of the men from w.a.n.g Xiaoyun"s group asked as he looked at Xue Wei . This man had become the backbone of their entire group; he was the one who caused them to have such an abundant harvest .
