Within his mind David thought, "Return to ashes!"
Rumble!
David''s incredibly strong willpower was like a huge mountain, immediately smashing down on the roaring outside willpower influence. At the same time, David thought curiously, "Consciousness pressure, consciousness pressure…use consciousness to attack. How can pure willpower invade my body like that? How strange? Ah, not good!"
"Rumble…" As its willpower was smashed by David''s, the blood river crystal''s true peculiar energy was unleashed. That red crystal''s threads began to madly invade David.
David''s body couldn''t help but begin to shake and tremble.
David''s facial muscles were spasming uncontrobly. Theyers of skin contracted and condensed at times while splitting open and bleeding at another. His arms expanded even more violently, and his veins were more visible than ever. It looked almost like transparent crystal pathways, and asionally purely gold, his muscles kept changing.
Pain!
Extreme pain!
"What''s going on, just what is this blood river crystal doing why is it so different?" David roared within. He could feel the temperature in his body reach unbelievable heights, almost like it was about to be burnt to ashes. However, in an instant it would drop to shocking lows. It became so cold, that he couldn''t even feel his body.
Chi chi…David''s 10 fingernails extended, almost like metal fingernail des! After which it swiftly retracted back and his 10 fingers began to change. Even the bones were changing within. His entire hand began to resemble ws, and fur started sprouting out around them.
Not just his fingers, even on his arms, legs, feet, and face, the ck fur grew all over. At that moment, David looked like a sasquatch.
However a few minutester the fur quickly retracted and vanished.
Chi chi…
ck scales began to pop out from his arms, fingers, legs, feet and even his face, his entire body became huge and powerful.
"Just which race is this blood river crystal formed from? My god!" No matter how strong his imagination was, David would never have expected anything like this to happen. And the process of absorption was still going on…
...
Night time, the wind was like des blowing strong in the vast wilderness, and hiding in the wild grass was a faint silhouette.
The robes on his body were already torn into shreds, however below the shreds was a strong body with skin that was emitting white energy. "Inhale!" David took a deep breath while sitting crossed legged. His chest sank in and the stomach expanded, almost as though there was arge balloon within his stomach. This balloon then shifted upwards and his stomach contracted and his chest expanded.
After which, the huge bulge separated into 4 portions, heading towards David''s two arms and two legs.
Bulges appeared through his skin, it was incredibly peculiar!
"Exhale!" David let out a long breath before opening his eyes.
"I''ve finally made it through." David was shocked within.
Pain?
Under immense pain, David could endure almost anything easily. However the absorption feeling earlier…it was something he really didn''t like! Because, besides the extreme pain, the most ufortable thing was that David''s own soul and consciousness couldn''t control his own body!
Losing the ability to control his body, this was a feeling he had never felt before.
"No matter what, this type of feeling is finally over." David tore off the shredded clothes and carefully examined his body. No matter what angle he looked at, at least from the exterior, there didn''t seem to be any difference at all,pared to before the absorption of the crystal. During the absorption itself, his body constantly morphed into things he had never seen before.
"It shouldn''t be." David frowned.
"I''ll test it!"
David gazed into the distance, "gic energy!"
Rumble…the distant wilderness'' big piece ofnd that was at least 10 million tons immediately floated up. Also, with the gic energy wrapped about the entire piece, there was no leakage at all. Under David''s control, this mountain of mud flew in mid air and in a round arc about.
"No difference."
"When ite to invasiveness, emptiness, flexibility, toughness, my gic energy has no difference from before, my consciousness and willpower has no difference either." David shook his head. The piece ofnd revolving in the dead of night immediately fell from the air and smashed back into the crater from before.
"My soul wasn''t affected, how about the body?" David frowned, suddenly throwing out a punch.
Rumble! With that punch, a high pressured shockwave was formed, causing an explosion in air. The terrifying ripple cut through the grass,pletely clearing out a few km in area around him.
"No difference?" David squinted his eyes. Ripples of energy vibrated all over his skin, all the strength in his muscles was immediately sent to his right hand which was formed into a fist! David had transferred all his strength into that instantaneous explosion, resulting in that ear piercing explosion as he punched!
"I felt it, I felt it!"
"Within the depths of my cells, there''s a change!" David''s eyes were filled with a sense of glee, "This, this is an evolution of life?"
Every time a flesh and blood life form breaks through, there would be an evolution.
Breaking through to star traveller, to universe level, to Cosmic lord…the rest of the leveling was simply quantity based training.
"My body is still Cosmic lord peak! I haven''t broken through. However, my bones, muscles, and every cell within has had some change." David was excited and anxious within
The books had said the evolution was mysterious, and this wasn''t exaggerated at all.
However…
The changes deep within his cells, even with David''s immense control of his cells and body, he couldn''t fully deduce them clearly.
"There''s no other way, I can only gradually get used to it. I will have to learn to feel it, and slowly understand its changes." David thought, following which he looked at the night sky. Sou! He rushed up and immediately broke through the cloud levels until the 12th level.
"I''ll investigate the mysteries of my body''s changes here in the clouds.
David brandished a blood shadow de and practiced in the clouds.
Heaven Devour Levitating Petal pce, David''s quarters.
Even though he had continuously killed 2 prominent figures in Heaven Devour city, Dave was still carefree and training in his quarters. As he was worried he might destroy the pce, hence he purposely used gic energy to create a barrier around, and he trained within. Any ripples his fists caused werepletely blocked by this barrier.
He could train both his gic energy and train recklessly within.
"Mysterious."
"Mysterious indeed." He could already feel the initial changes of the blood river crystal''s mysteries. He was very excited.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked through the window outside. There were two people walking over, Nabu and Naije, father and son duo.
"I''ll take a break now."
The gleeful David walked to the 1st level. At the same time, Nabu and Naije had just walked into the yard, "Lord Dave."
"Come in." David smiled and sat down. He lifted a wine ss and poured a ss of blood river world''s wine for himself and was sipping. A chill permeated through his entire body, he smiledfortably, "Why have you rushed over here so early?"
"We heard that Lord Dave was taken into General Rothwell''s prison. This kid was so nervous that he jumped up and down after. So I apanied him to visit you in the prison, only to find out that you had already left." The silver haired Nabu smiled, "Hence, today we thought we''de pay you a visit early. Lord Dave , if you have any troubles or matters in the future, please call us.
Even though I may not be able to solve some big issues, however, when ites to most trivial matters in Heaven Devour city, I''m able to help you settle them."
"Thanks."
David smiled, "However there''s nothing much now. Ah? Naije."
"Hm." Naije replied, his expression wasn''t too happy.
"What''s the matter?" David smiled.
Nabu could see this mysterious warrior was in a good mood today, he smiled and exined, "This kid, he''s having some trouble in the rtionship department, hence he''s sulking today."
"Rtionship troubles?" Davidughed loudly, "Naije, you''ve fallen out of love?"
"What''s falling out of love?" Naije looked up at David.
"It means you like someone but she doesn''t like you back." David lifted the ss and sipped happily.
"Right." Nabu smiled beside, rubbing his son''s head. His son however dodged unhappily. Nabuughed, "The other party doesn''t like him. Actually speaking of which, Naije did give a new lease of life to that girl…just thinking about the matter makes me want tough."
New lease of life?" David was shocked.
"Father!" Naije was unhappy.
Nabu just smiled and exined, "My son has had a kind heart from young. He likes to bring his guards to bars and other ces, to listen to stories of other strong warriors. He worships these heroes, hence he acts like these heroes sometimes. Almost like robbing the rich for the poor, he would give his family''s money secretly to the poor. One of the poor families only has a mother and a daughter.
My son has been secretly helping them since she was young. After that, she grew up and got older. I don''t know how…but my son actually fell for that poor family''s daughter."
"Ah?" David starred.
Helping the poor, helping till he actually falls for the poor family''s girl.
Naije was blushing.
"Not just that! My son has always been secretly giving money to the mother of that girl. Funding the girl…" Nabu shook his head, "When that girl actually tried to enter one of the sects in our city, my son immediately gave arge amount of money secretly to that mother. And just like that…that poor family''s daughter, from a poor little girl, she became a genius warrior of that sect!
Secretly, my son had been supporting her for 12 years!"
"What happened after that?" David was curious.
"My son secretly liked that girl, hence he too joined that sect." Nabu shook his head, "It''s a pity, just yesterday, he went to confess and was rejected."
"Ah?" Davidughed happily.
Naije looked angrily at his father.
"Your father cannot speak a few words with Lord Dave ?" Nabu stared at his son.
Naije could only look down, his ears all red.
"And not just that!" Nabu said, "If things still aren''t interesting enough, just as my son got rejected and walked towards the exit, his spirit dejected. That girl''s mother actually came to the sect to visit her daughter, seeing my son…this gets exciting, that mother actually hugged my son and expressed her gratitude."
"Ah?" David''s eyes gleamed.
"That girl ran over. Seeing the situation, she was extremely curious and asked her mother about this benefactor.
Her mother told her the truth, saying how my son had been helping them all this while." Nabuughed loudly, "At this, the girl was stunned, and she couldn''t even believe it initially, saying Naije wasn''t even 20 years old, and it doesn''t make sense, because the support started over 10 years ago."
"Her mother said, back then, a little rich kid under the protection of guards secretly gave them money, and she had watched as the little rich kid slowly grew up." Nabu eximed, "Who would''ve thought a little kid''s yful attitude actually produced such a scene."
"What happened after?" Davidughed and asked curiously, "How did that girl react to Naije?"
"That girl had backbone, she was very grateful." Nabu said, "She told my son directly…I''m willing to repay my debt to you for my family as your ve, even if you wish, I''ll marry you."
"Ah? That''s a pleasant surprise." Davidughed.
"It''s not over."
Nabuughed loudly, "My son asked her modestly, do you like me?"
"That girl said, my mind is set on the martial arts, and there''s no one I fancy. However, the debt I owe to you, I have no other way to repay." Naby said, "After the girl finished, my son said directly…I, Naije, will never force anyone. If you don''t like me, then I won''t force you. After which, this son of mine, he turned and brought his guards away with him.
Haha…" As Nabu finished, he couldn''t help butugh loudly once again.
"Interesting, interesting." Davidughed
