Meanwhile, Xiao Songxi was half-human. Although he purified his bloodline and was now a full-blood Baishe Clan, many people still viewed him as human. Regardless, they had no better choice but to count on him.
Unfortunately, he failed. So, as they looked at him lying on the floor, they could only sigh in disappointment.
Meanwhile, the demon race was both happy and worried. They were delighted by the might displayed by their Venerable Chieft. Simultaneously, they feared the other races would gang up on him and eliminate him.
After all, no race would want the demon race to have an Eternal Emperor. Although the situation of the Myriad Emperor World is no longer the same as the Ancient Emperor Era, where Eternals could do as they pleased, it would still bring devastating catastrophe to other races if the demon race was the final winner of this generation"s battle.
No one wanted a repeat of the Golden Ape Emperor or the Heaven-Devouring Emperor. So, many people were secretly watching the demon race, scheming how they would react once an Eternal Emperor appeared on the Northern Continent.
Heaven Will Battlefield, Northern Quadrant:
Mo Xingyun sensed the power of Devour, and it was a unique one from the Baishe Clan. He once studied their clan"s bloodline when creating his Heaven Devouring Physique, so he was curious after sensing their clan"s unique aura.
His curiosity allowed him to witness the battle between Ao Shen and Xiao Songxi. After the battle ended, Ao Shen detected his gaze and looked at him. The latter picked Xiao Songxi"s body before returning to the demon race"s side and activating the formation to hide all these pesky sights.
Mo Xingyun frowned as he felt a slight greed flash in Ao Shen"s eyes. Although the latter swiftly controlled his emotion and removed it, he still detected it.
"What is this guy planning?" His intuition told him another variable might have opened up.
"Although Xiao Songxi is a waster, this generation is full of talent," he commented. Compared to his generation, most of the Heaven Chosens of this era were on par with him–if not better. Given a chance, most of these people can become Eternal Emperors.
As for Xiao Songxi? As a person who cultivated Devour Dao, he could not devour everything thrown at him. As such, he was a waste in the Heaven Devour Emperor"s eyes.
The pinnacle of the Devour Dao is to be able to devour everything. A Quasi-Emperor can devour the attack of a Third Cla.s.s Emperor. Of course, they could swallow it and not digest it.
They should be able to turn the power devoured into reserve energy that increases their stamina or life energy for healing. Of course, Mo Xingyun knew for a Quasi Emperor to achieve such a feat, they would need to spend millions of years swallowing the Emperor"s attack while the latter waited for them to do it.
Furthermore, swallowing did not mean they could use the power to increase their strength. Even when he was alive, he could not digest everything he swallowed.
Mo Xingyun shook his head before ignoring this situation; he still had things to plan
Southern Quadrant:
Ao Shen looked at Xiao Songxi"s body. He had processed the shock from knowing w.a.n.g Wei and Di Tian"s strength and could react more calmly. By now, he had calmed himself down, entering a state of rationality.
"The dragon race was used as the blueprint for many demon races," he thought. In many records, dragons are described as the head of a camel, the body of a snake, the scale of a fish, the paws of a tiger, the claws of an eagle, the ear of an ox, the horns of a deer, the eyes of a hare, and the belly of a clam.
The descriptions sometimes vary with different animals, but the essence is dragons are composed of various animal parts.
"According to my inherited memories, the Innat Demon and Primordial G.o.ds used different characteristics of the dragons to create a demon race while also modeling it after other Innate creatures like the White Tiger.
"To create me, the demon race combined the bloodline of different tribes, focusing on the physical characteristics of dragons. After years of research and acquiring a broken Chaos Treasure, their research succeeded, and I was born–albeit incomplete."
Ao Shen became a complete and genuine Innate Dragon after absorbing the Dragon Blood from the secret realm Liu Meixu opened.
With a calm composure, he opened Xiao Songxi"s chest and took the latter"s heart from him. Then, using a secret technique, he forced nine drops of extremely bright red blood.
"My bloodline is already the combination of many demon races. But that"s not enough," thought Ao Shen with brilliant eyes. "I will fuse the Baishe Clan"s bloodline and swallow more bloodline.
"If I can fuse countless race bloodlines–especially powerful Innate Bloodlines–I might be able to create a Dragon Chaos Bloodline, drastically increasing my strength.
"Maybe I can even use this Chaos Dragon Bloodline to have the battle prowess of Dao Ancestor–and even, Great Emperor."
A light of madness flashed in Ao Shen"s eyes as he pondered the feasibility of this plan.
"Darkness can contain all things similar to Chaos–maybe except its opposite of light. Using this basis, I could use it as the seed for my Chaos Bloodline. Then, with the swallowing power of the Baishe Clan, it will be easier for me to swallow and a.s.similate different bloodlines."
Although this plan was crazy, Ao Shen felt it was worth the risks. So, he sat cross-legged and absorbed Xiao Songxi"s bloodline. Using the entire demon race"s heritage or knowledge regarding bloodline, he created the Choas Bloodline Seed using his Innate Dragon Bloodline and the Baishe Clan Bloodline.
"The first stage is complete," he thought as he felt the Bloodline Seed inside his body. Then, Ao Shen ordered all the demon races under his command to send him their Bloodline Source Blood.
Many demon races were shocked. Bloodline Source Blood was crucial for demons since it determined the quant.i.ty and purity of their bloodline. Even one drop could drastically weaken a demon"s bloodline and weaken its strength and potential.
Regardless of how unwilling they were, most understood their hope lay in the chief, so they gave one or two drops. Of occurs, a few demons refused. But Ao Shen was ruthless and killed all the people who refused.
Then, he ruthlessly absorbed all their bloodline.
Ao Shen subsequently entered a small retreat to absorb all these bloodlines.
