When Jade killed the first person, she was extremely domineering and looked simply invincible. However, she did not expect to use up all the power at once.
As a result, she ended up in a predicament and was almost captured by Jeremy when she rushed over to kill the second person.
The old geezer in the Martello Celia said, “You have just awakened the bloodline of the Titan Tribe. Did you really you were invincible? It’s not like the awakened bloodline has turned you into a new person. You will possess the same amount of energy as you originally had.”
“No way! Then, was my awakening all for nothing?”
“That’s not the case. You awakened the hard conditions from the awakened bloodline. Your body, for instance, could only hold a hundred points of power before, but you can now hold one million points. Your previous rate of absorbing the Earth essence was one, but now it is ten thousand. This is the essential difference. Do you understand? You activated the Life Sacrifice for him right after you awakened your bloodline. You have never accumulated any power, so how is your body going to provide so much energy for you?”
Alex said, “I understand! It is like you are a horse. Previously, you were a short, skinny, probably a sickly little rookie…”
Jade glared at him. “Who are you calling sick? Who’s the rookie?”
“I’m just making an analogy. You have now awakened and become a Nisean horse that can run at a breakneck speed, for instance, but your energy has, in fact, originated from the same source, that is eating grass and drinking water… One ate less, while the other one ate more…”
The old hammer said, “This analogy is right. Your current capacity is large, and you still need to fill up the energy, but the energy doesn’t appear out of thin air. Eating is the first key trick, and the important ability of the Titan Tribe is eating.”
“Oh gosh…”
Jade couldn’t imagine herself turning into a glutton. She would have to stuff food into her month all the time. That was too terrifying.
The Martello Celia said, “The Titan Tribe eats everything.”
Alex was shocked. “They eat everything? Can they eat mud?”
“They can!”
“Can they eat metal?”
“They can!”
“How about stones?”
“They are edible too!”
A burst of explosions ensued.
Half of Jeremy’s flying swords clashed loudly with the Martello Celia.
Half of the flying swords were knocked back, but the other half shot out like meteors, targeting Jade. Jade screwed up again at the critical moment. She ran back with injuries all over her body, looking wretched. Alex had again rescued her from the siege with the Icebound Spell and the Dao Killing Sword.
However, the enemies behind quickly caught up to them and surrounded them.
There was no way of escape before their eyes.
Just then, a whistling sound rang in their ears. Regardless of Alex, Jade, Returning Sword Sect, or Rakshasa Temple, the sound remained fresh in their memories, such that they could never forget it in this lifetime, that was the boundless astral wind in this place. It stopped for a while earlier, but unexpectedly, it came again.
Someone instantly shouted, “Everyone, be careful! The astral wind is coming again!”
“Holy crap! Why is it coming again? Everyone, hurry and find a boulder to hide yourselves!”
“This place is empty. Where can we find any boulders?”
