Chapter 99: Blood-draining Talent and the Replenishment of Vitality!

TL: Etude

Ye Tian's cloning talent was about 20 days away from its cooldown period, leaving him plenty of time. During this period, he spent his days either contemplating swordsmanship or nurturing his relationship with the War Blood Sky Dragon.

The War Blood Sky Dragon had just been born and its intelligence was still not fully developed, much like a human infant, requiring time to grow. Moreover, Ye Tian made a discovery: the dragon was particularly fond of consuming Qiong Beast Blood. Even if the blood did not carry the dragon lineage, the creature would still consume it. To the War Blood Sky Dragon, Qiong Beast Blood was akin to milk, facilitating its growth.

Seeing the War Blood Sky Dragon grow day by day, getting bigger even as it consumed large quantities of Qiong Beast Blood, Ye Tian was overjoyed. However, with both him and the War Blood Sky Dragon being large consumers of blood, the amount of Qiong Beast Blood needed for future cultivation would be enormous. Fortunately, he had a significant stockpile of Qiong Beast Blood, but he suspected he would need to frequently venture into the wilderness in the future to meet their needs.

A few days later, Ye Tian made a decision. He released Xiao Jin from his ownership, allowing the creature to become Ye Yu's beast companion. Xiao Jin grumbled for a while but eventually accepted the new arrangement obediently.

In truth, becoming Ye Yu's beast companion was not a demeaning thing. Ye Yu had consumed the Soulflower Ye Tian gave her and her cultivation talent had undergone a radical transformation. She was certain to become a Grandmaster in the future, and there was even a glimmer of hope that she would reach the King level. Thus, Xiao Jin quickly came to terms with becoming Ye Yu's beast companion.

A day before the cooldown for his cloning talent ended, Ye Tian withdrew from his contemplation of sword intent and sighed, murmuring, "Finally, my understanding of sword intent has reached nineteen percent. These past few months of arduous cultivation and contemplation have not been in vain!"

Nineteen percent sword intent meant that with just a bit more effort, he could achieve twenty percent, which was the threshold for practicing silver-level sword techniques. Ye Tian was highly anticipatory, as many silver-level sword techniques were said to possess special effects beyond merely increasing combat power.

Another day passed.

The cooldown for his cloning talent ended, granting Ye Tian two more opportunities to clone talents. The first opportunity he gave to the Blood-draining Talent, a top-tier talent in blood manipulation and precisely what he needed.

Once successfully cloned, he would be able to truly break the limits of blood refinement, allowing his skin, flesh, bone, and blood to reach unprecedented levels. He could then attempt the final step—breaking the limits of his internal organs to establish a perfect foundation.

"Merge!"

The Blood-draining Talent integrated into Ye Tian's body.

The transformation began.

Ten minutes later, Ye Tian successfully fused with the Blood-draining Talent and quickly understood its true utility.

"Consume blood to replenish vitality!"

Ye Tian immediately grasped the heaven-defying nature of this talent.

This was even more potent than the healing talent. While the healing talent could mend injuries, it could not replenish vitality, which was linked to one's life force and beyond the scope of simple healing.

For example, if Ye Tian had used some forbidden techniques that consumed his life force, the healing talent wouldn't be able to restore it. But now, with the Blood-draining Talent, he could consume large amounts of Qiong Beast Blood to draw vitality from it and replenish his own.
