Reaper of the Martial World

Book 7: Chapter 189: Pulse Trees (1)

It wasn’t until weeks later that Dyon felt he could finally collapse and catch his breath. By now, the second phase was only days away, yet he had wasted so much time fighting these damned apes. However, if Dyon’s plans were taken into account, it couldn’t be said that this wasn’t a useful use of his time. With how many benefits he had already gained from this Mystical World, it was worth it.

After a few hours of recuperating – something he was getting into the habit of doing naturally instead of relying on healing pills – he meticulously collected the few dozen beast corpses as he had done for the demon tigers.

First, he separated out the blood into vats by their purity. Then he carefully dissected them of their skin and set aside their meat for consumption. Finally, he stored their bone and its marrow for future use.

Once he was satisfied, Dyon began searching around for treasures this tribe would have been hiding. He gained big from the Blue Flame Demon Tiger pride, so he hoped that his Diamond Skinned Ape tribe wouldn’t disappoint him.

“Big brother, did we just do all of this for their treasures?” Biibi asked. The view of a three-year-old girl raising her eyebrows in a very adult-like manner was so adorable that Dyon couldn’t help but pick her up and pinch her cheeks.

Truth be told, this made perfect sense. The treasures protected by prides and tribes of transcendent grade beasts were bound to be excellent. However, Biibi somehow felt that this wasn’t Dyon’s true purpose.

“The blood of the demon tigers and diamond apes will be very useful to Sen and Shere. Their combat abilities would definitely take a step up with them.” Dyon explained.

It had to be said that the Celestial Beasts were the ancestors of almost all related species that fell under their purview. This made sense considering they were among the most ancient of beasts.

Simply put, at some point in time, demon tigers branched from a diluted celestial tiger bloodline, while diamond apes branched from a diluted celestial ape bloodline. Essentially, all of their abilities are hidden somewhere within the potential of Sen and Shere.

If the bloodlines of his beast companions were at their peak, there would hardly be a point to doing this. A supreme grade beast ingesting the blood of a transcendent grade one would be next to useless. However, this wasn’t the case right now.

With his beast companions only having access to a small segment of their bloodline abilities, supplementing them with bloodlines at or near their current purity would only help them. If Dyon gave them enough of these bloodlines, their celestial bloodline could evolve into something entirely new, maybe even surpassing the past.

The only problem with Dyon’s plans was how difficult it was to find such bloodlines, especially for Linlin and Biibi. While cat and ape-like creatures weren’t rare, the opposite was true of deer and turtle-like creatures. historical

For deer, Dyon could only think of qilins. Their bloodlines are very similar which was why the birth of Zaire from a demon qilin and a celestial deer resulted in such a powerful evolution of his little brother’s bloodlines.

Truth be told, Dyon would just have to go on a hunting spree in the Drago-Qilin lands to help Biibi out. But… helping Linlin was what was truly giving him a headache.

“Oh!” The four beast babies understood and immediately became excited. As beasts, their innate instinct was to become more powerful, so their reaction was to be expected.

Dyon nodded. “After we finish collecting everything there is to gain here, I’ll go into a bit of a closed door retreat to concoct some pills. After that, we’ll use the Tower to evolve Shere and Sen’s bloodlines.”

Shere and Sen shook with excitement. Although their individual bloodlines were already powerful, the both of them lacked defense. By inheriting the demon tiger and diamond ape bloodlines respectively, they’d most definitely solve this problem. They’d likely be able to become Kings of the peak transcendent grade after this.

As expected, the diamond ape’s tribal grounds weren’t a disappointment.

Firstly, the darkest trees had metal essence in their cores that Little Rain ate to his fill. By now, the little guys was closing in on the combat prowess of a pseudo dao expert despite his size being streamlined.

Not long after letting Little Rain run free to his heart’s content, Dyon found a small forest of two dozen or so trees hidden deep within the forest of metal.

“These are Golden Pulse Fruits.” Dyon said with his eyes gleaming.

The quality of these spiritual fruits was decided by the rings of light that hovered around them, known as pulses. During the first few dozen years of its life, these pulses would be black and of the practitioner grade. After a few hundred, the pulse would be bronze and of the master grade. After a few thousand, it would be silver and of the grandmaster grade. Finally, after tens of thousands of years, the pulse would become this golden color and transcend to the comet grade.

“Some of these are even nine pulse fruits!” Dyon’s smile grew wider. Nine pulses represented 90 000 years. This meant that some of these were close to breaking through to the next layer!

The best part was that these Pulse Trees had matured over millions of years. This meant that any fruit it gave birth to would immediately be of the one golden pulse tier.

There were 20 nine pulse fruits, several hundred eight pulse, while the remaining several thousand ranged between the first and seventh pulses with the first pulse being the most frequent. Still, these were heavenly treasures for body refinement that should have long since gone extinct!
