Chapter 389 - Blood Essence

"Y-Young Master, by ’Dragon Ancestor’, do you mean THAT ’Dragon Ancestor’?" Feng Yuxiang asked him in a trembling voice.

Yuan raised his eyebrows and spoke, "Hmm? Do you know the Dragon Ancestor?"

"If it’s the same Dragon Ancestor you’re talking about, of course, I know him! Oh, but it’s not like I know him personally. He’s just incredibly famous in the upper heavens." Feng Yuxiang said.

"Oh? Tell me more!" Yuan said, his eyes filled with interest.

Feng Yuxiang nodded and said, "The Dragon Ancestor is one of the oldest Divine Beasts in existence who has existed ever since the Primordial Era— the earliest known Era, and the Dragon Ancestor has built multiple empires and powerful families across the Nine Heavens. He’s so incredibly powerful and famous that many people revere the Dragon Ancestor as their god!"

"Many families across the Nine Heavens, huh? I think it’s the same Dragon Ancestor since that’s what the Royal Family told me as well." Yuan said.

"Heavens... You really obtained the Dragon Ancestor’s Blood Essence? Not just his blood, but his Blood Essence! This is a priceless treasure even in the upper heavens, Young Master! I have no doubt that even gods would start a war for it!"

"What’s the difference between regular blood and Blood Essence?" Yuan asked her.

"The phoenix blood I gave you is considered ’regular blood’ since I can offer it quite easily. Blood Essence, however, requires tedious effort and the individual’s longevity to create."

"Huh? Does that mean it’ll take away your life?" Yuan’s eyes widened.

"That’s right." Feng Yuxiang nodded, and she continued, "Blood Essence requires one to sacrifice their longevity, and to Cultivators, their longevity is extremely important, almost sacred, so you can imagine why Blood Essence is incredibly rare."

"Even true Immortals that have indefinite longevity would not create Blood Essence carelessly because it could affect their cultivation, and that would be disastrous even if they lose a single level."

"I see..." Yuan mumbled. _{freёwebnovel.com}

"This makes me wonder... Why would the Dragon Ancestor risk so much to create his Blood Essence?" Feng Yuxiang pondered.

After a moment of silence, Yuan asked, "Should I consume the Blood Essence?"

Feng Yuxiang instantly stopped her thoughts and looked at him with wide eyes.

"Absolutely not!" She loudly exclaimed, startling everyone in the room.

"I’m sorry for shouting at you like that, Young Master, but you must not consume the Blood Essence because your body cannot handle it. The Dragon Ancestor is a godlike being at the peak of the cultivation world, and its Blood Essence would obviously contain an immense amount of energy. It would be like an ant trying to drink all of the water in an ocean." Feng Yuxiang said.

"Actually, can I take a look at the Blood Essence?"

Yuan nodded and retrieved his Dragon Spatial Ring before taking out the bottle and showing it to her.

Feng Yuxiang narrowed her eyes at the single drop of blood with a pondering look on her serious face.
