Chapter 583: Flesh Reforging (2)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Each enclosure housed various animals bred for experimental purposes.
For example, mice, cows, sheep, and other animals.
Next, he needed to slaughter them to absorb blood and Qi and convert them into flesh and blood.
He came to the glass door of the cow farm and pressed the start button. Immediately, the glass door slowly moved to the side and opened.
Stepping through the glass door, Feng Qi pounced on a cow nearby.
Borrowing an innate ability did not mean that he had obtained the power of himself in the main timeline.
Feng Qi knew this very well.
For example, he had also activated his Blood Source form. In the main timeline, he could reach a height of more than 16 feet, but this level couldn’t be attained on the sacrifice timeline.
He was only borrowing traits of strength, not strength itself.
Activating the Blood Source form consumed his blood and Qi.
With his current physique, even if his combat strength would increase greatly after activating the Blood Source, there was still a significant difference compared to the main timeline.
However, against ordinary animals, his current combat body form was enough to deal with them.
As the fist shadow appeared, the cow’s head instantly caved in. Its body flew a few feet away and was instantly killed.
However, what surprised him was that no blood essence could be absorbed from the dead cow.
Looking at the cow, who had lost all signs of life, Feng Qi could not help but mutter, ”Sh*t…”
He realized something very serious.
Although he had borrowed his other self’s origin trait, he did not obtain the ability to absorb the blood and Qi of the dead.
The ability to absorb blood and Qi was the same as the narrator—it was not tied to innate abilities.
So… what should I do next?
If he could not absorb blood and Qi, he would not be able to return to his human form.
If he could not return to his human form, he would not be able to activate the combat timeline.
He could not possibly recruit warriors in his Skeletal form and cooperate with other hidden human forces, right?
He took a few steps forward in disbelief and began to check the vitality of the cow. He thought that perhaps the cow was not dead.
After a round of examination, he gave up.
In his Skeletal form, even the possibility of drinking blood was halted.
How could he change back to his human form? His head hurt.
“What’s wrong?” Wei Wei’s voice came from behind.
“I faced a very troublesome problem,” Feng Qi replied through telepathy.
Then, he explained his predicament to Wei Wei in detail.
After hearing his story, Wei Wei immediately said that she might be able to try other methods.
Next, he followed Wei Wei to her private laboratory and began to try the other methods that Wei Wei mentioned.
The first method to try was to smear blood on his bones to see if it could be absorbed.
There was a lot of domain creature blood in Wei Wei’s cold storage cabinet. She took it and smeared it on Feng Qi’s bones.
However, the miracle didn’t happen.
The blood that was smeared on his bones was not absorbed. There was not even a single change.
Facing failure, Wei Wei was not discouraged. She chose the injection method next.
The result of this attempt was still unsurprising. His body seemed to have lost the ability to absorb blood and Qi.
At this moment, even Wei Wei was helpless.
The ability to absorb blood and Qi belonged to his other self with the special physique. While he borrowed the origin power, he did not borrow this ability trait.
What was worse was that he did not have any digestive organs. He couldn’t rely on eating to replenish his blood and Qi.
Just as Feng Qi thought that this sacrifice timeline was going down the drain, an idea flashed through his mind.
He suddenly thought of the owner of the fog.
He was not the only one who could absorb blood and Qi. The owner of the fog had also mastered a similar ability. It was just that the owner of the fog’s efficiency in absorbing blood and Qi was far lower than his.
In the previous villain timeline where he grew up with the owner of the fog, the owner of the fog had taught him a way to absorb blood and Qi after its right arm was broken.
At that time, to train its ability to control blood, it specifically placed a wooden bucket filled with blood in the training ground of the manor of the Death Star Number Three Domain Combat Team and practiced every morning.
At the thought of this, he immediately looked at Wei Wei and directed his mental fluctuation at her.
“Sister Wei, I need some spiritual stones to outline the trajectory of the spell.”
Hearing this, Wei Wei looked puzzled, but she didn’t ask further. She immediately turned around and walked towards the cubicle in the private laboratory.
A moment later, Wei Wei returned with a box of spiritual stones.
He reached out to take the metal box from Wei Wei and placed it on the workbench. Then, he took out the spiritual stones inside one by one.
With his special physique, his body was unable to absorb Spiritual Qi, so he could not outline the trajectory of the spell.
However, this problem was easy to resolve. He just needed the help of spiritual stones.
Then, he told Wei Wei what he was thinking.
After understanding what he wanted to do, Wei Wei nodded and took out a small blue crystal needle from the toolbox at the side.
This small needle was made of extremely precious high-quality spirit ores.
Other than sharpness and other traits, it also had the effect of guiding the circulation of Spiritual Qi.
The Spiritual Qi spewing out of the shattered spiritual stones was quickly absorbed after coming into contact with the crystal needle. Soon, the blue crystal needle flickered with a blue light.
It was like a needle used for mending clothes; the end needed to be threaded.
This crystal needle was the same. The difference was that the end gathered Spiritual Qi.
Usually, after the rune modification surgery, Wei Wei would use this special crystal needle to help the modified person stitch up the wound.
However, this time, the crystal needle became a “magic wand” used to outline spells.
After taking the crystal needle from Wei Wei, he began to draw in front of him.
The crystal needle trailed its tail, flickering with a blue crystalline light and leaving a magical trajectory in the air.
Soon, a strange blue pattern appeared in the air.
This pattern was the “blood and Qi control technique” that the owner of the fog had taught him.
After outlining the trajectory of the spell, Feng Qi used his consciousness to slowly activate the spell formation floating in front of him.
In the end, the trajectory diagram contracted and came into contact with his bones, branding them with a trajectory diagram.
The spell was outlined and formed with the trajectory of the crystal needle.
The blood of the domain creature in the container not far away was attracted by an invisible force. It slowly floated in the air and surged towards him.
When the blood came into contact with the bone that was branded with the trajectory of the spell, it slowly seeped in.
As more blood flew over, his bones quickly absorbed the energy in it.
As for the spell trajectory diagram, it constantly purified the blood to expel the impurities in it.
As the bones continued to absorb, a trace of blood appeared on the surface of the already shriveled heart that had turned gray, and it began to beat slowly.
His heart was beating faster at a visible speed, and it was gradually filling up.
Seeing this, Wei Wei immediately walked quickly to the cold storage cabinet and returned with some domain creature blood for experiments.
At this moment, Feng Qi closed his eyes and sensed the changes in his body.
The feeling of absorbing blood was very strange. It was like bathing in rain on dry land and rejuvenating one’s vitality. One’s body was nourished in all aspects.
Finally, his heart regained its momentum, and the beating sound became strong.
When the time was right, he chose to switch to his human form.
After a short wait, blood-colored fog began to appear on the surface of his body and spread continuously, slowly enveloping his entire body.
The flesh and nerves on the surface of his bones were like bean sprouts that had broken out of the soil. They danced and grew tenaciously. This process was very fast. In the blink of an eye, his body was covered in a thin layer of flesh.
Wei Wei, who was standing at the side, couldn’t help but click her tongue in wonder when she saw this scene. Then, she took out her phone and took a video, recording the process of him changing his form.
Compared to the process of completing the transformation in a few seconds, he waited for a full minute before successfully switching back to his human form.
He opened his eyes and looked down at his body.
Everything was the same as before. He had returned to his human body.
At this moment, he suddenly realized something and decisively turned around to run to the cubicle.
He realized that he was naked.
He felt a little awkward when he thought about how Wei Wei had seen everything.
After entering the cubicle, he immediately chose a loose uniform from the closet and wore it.
A moment later, he walked out of the cubicle.
Looking at the calm Wei Wei, he scratched his head awkwardly.
“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about—I’ve seen it countless times in the previous timelines. Just treat me as a doctor who circumcised you and you’ll feel better.”
