Chapter 70: Chapter 70 – Life Seed
“Ticket?”
Hearing Corripo’s words, Chen Heng became quite curious, “How can one obtain such a thing?”
Corripo looked at him before shaking his head, saying, “I’m not sure. However, I do know one thing: only true nobles with powerful bloodlines will have a ticket. Ordinary people do not have the qualification to have such a ticket.”
“So it’s like that…”
Chen Heng frowned, “That means only true nobles with powerful bloodlines can get on a ship to leave?”
“That is indeed the case under normal circumstances,” Corripo nodded, “But there are exceptions. If you have great talent in a certain area and can be taken in by a true noble as a follower, you can get on the ship with that noble.”
“I see,” Chen Heng nodded before continuing to ask questions.
The two of them continued to go on like this, one asking questions and the other answering, while Krudo stood by the side and silently listened.
He was listening quite attentively, but he was not very interested in that ship ticket.
After all, he did not have any thoughts about leaving this continent.
Since he did not want to leave, he naturally did not care about the ship ticket.
In actuality, Chen Heng was the same.
He was only asking Corripo these questions to gain a better understanding of this world; he did not actually want to leave this continent.
He had worked hard in this continent and established a foundation. As long as he could hang on, he would be able to see his efforts pay off in the long term.
If he rashly left this continent, everything he had worked for would have been for nothing.
If he went to a new continent, he would have to start all over again, and it would waste a lot of his time.
After chatting with Corripo, Chen Heng’s horizons had been greatly broadened, and he knew much more about this world.
It was evident that this world was not as simple as it seemed on the surface. It could even be said that it was much more spectacular than Chen Heng had imagined.
It was just that Chen Heng had not come into contact with many things.
However, none of this mattered.
He was not like an ordinary person who only had one chance.
For Chen Heng, even if he could not come into contact with those things this time, there was a next time.
After many simulations, one day, he would come into contact with this world’s deepest secret and obtain the truth about this world.
It was just that before then, he needed to just focus on being the best him.
After talking with Corripo, Chen Heng made a request.
“Are you sure you want to drink the Black Wolf’s Blood right now?”
Looking at Chen Heng, Corripo’s expression was quite surprised, “You don’t want to wait? Your constitution is special, and you still have space to grow. There’s no need for you to try right now.”
“There’s no need,” Chen Heng smiled and said, “I can already sense my progress becoming much slower. If I continue to wait, I will just be wasting time; there’s no point to it.”
He had reached the second step of the Solid Rock Body Forging Technique, and he was about to condense a Solid Rock Body.
Now that he had reached this step, his speed had become much slower, and he could no longer advance as quickly and efficiently.
Rather than continuing to slowly progress like this, it was better to try to awaken his Life Seed.
Hearing this, Corripo nodded.
Following this, Chen Heng took off his clothes from his upper body and pasted a special medicinal paste on his body before drinking down the Black Wolf’s Blood.
A sour and sweet taste spread through Chen Heng’s mouth before spreading to his brain.
Soon, his entire brain felt as if it was burning, and he felt as if there was a fire burning his entire body, making him feel quite uncomfortable.
This feeling was even more intense than during Life Ignition; it was like comparing a matchstick to a bonfire.
Extreme pain spread from all areas of Chen Heng’s body, making him want to cry out.
However, Chen Heng endured the pain and did not make any sound.
Sweat flowed down his body, and a faint blood-red color could be seen over his body as the searing aura continuously spread out, making Chen Heng seem like a furnace that gave off a massive amount of heat.
This was undoubtedly an extremely painful experience, but using his incredibly powerful willpower, Chen Heng was able to endure it.
Looking at this scene, Corripo gave a faint smile.
To be able to endure the pain from the Black Wolf’s Blood, Chen Heng had essentially passed the first stage.
If he was unable to get through this first stage, his mind would be twisted by the extreme pain, resulting in the awakening of the Life Seed failing.
After using the Black Wolf’s Blood, if the awakening failed, the Knight would die.
However, Chen Heng undoubtedly passed this stage easily.
Corripo was not surprised at all.
As Chen Heng’s teacher, he knew Chen Heng quite well.
From how he saw it, if Chen Heng could not endure this stage, it would be extremely strange.
Time gradually passed.
Before Chen Heng knew it, the intense pain gradually subsided.
Drops of sweat continued to fall, but they had become red-colored.
Drops of blood continuously leaked out from Chen Heng’s skin, making him look quite chilling.
At the same time, there were new changes going on in Chen Heng’s body.
Bang! Bang! Bang…
Loud sounds continuously sounded out, sounding like a heartbeat or war drums.
Krudo seemed to hear Chen Heng grunt before the aura around him suddenly changed.
Searing heat waves spread out in all directions, covering him and Corripo.
Sensing this feeling, he could not help but open his eyes and look ahead.
“This is…”
Bang!!
A strange sound rang out.
Ahead, Chen Heng slowly opened his eyes.
Life energy was continuously spreading out from his body, seeming to create a surface of white light around him, but it quickly disappeared.
It was so quick that Krudo thought that he was seeing things.
“Looks like the effects were quite good.”
Looking at the changes in Chen Heng, Corripo gave a slight smile.
The effects from Chen Heng drinking the Black Wolf’s Blood were even better than he had expected.
During the process of awakening a Life Seed, Knights’ bodies would be stimulated by life energy and their strength would increase, and their bodies would become stronger.
After drinking Black Wolf’s Blood, this would be further enhanced.
This was in addition to the fact that Chen Heng was already much stronger than an ordinary Knight Apprentice.
It was not an exaggeration to say that before awakening his Life Seed, Chen Heng’s strength was already comparable to many Knights. Now that he had awakened a Life Seed under the effects of Black Wolf’s Blood, his strength had increased astronomically, and it made even Corripo feel shocked.
Under Corripo’s gaze, Chen Heng stood there, gasping for breath.
As the effects of the Black Wolf’s Blood disappeared, the intense heat from his body gradually dissipated, leaving behind only immense fatigue and hunger.
It was as if he had not slept or eaten in days, and even though he had a Knight’s body, he was barely able to hold on. Right now, he just wanted to fall down and sleep.
