Chapter 408

"By the way, are you guys really not monsters?"

Aether shook his head and said softly:

"Although the people of the Abyss Order are called monsters, in essence, they are the remnants of Khaenri'ah from back then."

"After receiving the immortality curse from the gods, they did turn into monsters, but in essence, they are about the same as humans."

"Moreover, we don't need those martial arts that can practice internal energy."

"What we need are just some moves that can perfectly exert power, that is, skills that can guide internal energy to output maximum power with minimum output."

Hearing this, Lumine was stunned and looked at Aether with some surprise.

"Don't tell me you have already created some martial arts cultivation arts yourself!"

Seeing Lumine like this, Aether felt a bit proud, which was rare for him to be spirited in front of Lumine.

"This matter concerns the second thing I want to ask you to do."

"I want to ask you to help us hunt some fierce beasts."

258. Fierce beast martial arts? Why does it sound so much like a Xuanjia Liuli Beast?

"We spent a lot of manpower before, and finally managed to solve a peak-stage Foundation Establishment fierce beast."

"Later, we found nine drops of essence blood in that fierce beast."

As soon as Aether finished speaking, Lumine looked at Aether suspiciously.

"Don't tell me you guys drank the essence blood of the peak-stage Foundation Establishment fierce beast directly!"

"Uh... how did you know?"

"You really drank it!"

Lumine looked at Aether with an expression of "you really have guts" and admired him.

"Do you know that fierce beast essence blood is the existence that accommodates the most massive spiritual power in the fierce beast's body?"

"According to Senior Sister Ningguang and the others' calculations, if you don't practice martial arts, a top-tier Vision holder would explode and die if they took one drop of fierce beast essence blood."

"What do you think spiritual power is! That is the power condensed from massive and complex spiritual energy."

"Just from the quality, it explodes all the power in this world."

"It's fortunate that it was a peak-stage Foundation Establishment fierce beast, but if it were a late-stage Essence Refining fierce beast, you would be blown paralyzed if you drank one drop."

"You guy, your heart isn't big, but your guts are not small!"

Lumine scolded Aether severely. Although Aether knew Lumine was worried about him and was doing it for his own good.

After all, no matter how much they fought, they were the only relatives left.

But this tone...

Still made Aether's face black.

Lumine always felt that she could guide him after cultivating.

"This kind of brain-dead operation of drinking essence blood directly, I haven't even heard of it in Shushan, but it is recorded in the classics."

"An Essence Refining cultivator, overestimating his ability, drank the essence blood of a peak-stage Spirit-Returning fierce beast and exploded and died directly."

"Do you know that the innate masters in Liyue only dare to share one drop of late-stage Foundation Establishment fierce beast essence blood among three people."

"This is still under the premise that people have martial arts cultivation arts."

"You guys have nothing, drank essence blood directly, how many people died?"

Hearing this, Aether curled his lips and complained:

"Let you down, not a single one of us died. Not only did we not die, but we also created a martial arts system unique to us."

"I call it fierce beast martial arts."

Having said that, Aether raised his hand in a claw shape.

A group of scarlet blood energy condensed in his palm, and with it, Aether's eyes also slightly flashed with blood light.

He threw it back, and it landed on a hill, and the hill instantly fell apart.

Seeing this, Lumine's eyes narrowed, and she said with some surprise:

"The destructive power is actually so strong? It's much stronger than martial arts cultivators at the same stage."

Lumine didn't lie about this sentence. Strictly speaking, this could even be said to be the strongest power system under cultivation.

Sure enough... there must be blessings after surviving a disaster, right?

"The power of fierce beast martial arts is indeed very strong, much stronger than our own power."

Aether smiled and continued:

"The upper limit of fierce beast martial arts seems to be very high. At least for now, Liyue's Land Immortal stage is not the limit of fierce beast martial arts I predicted."

"So, we don't need Liyue's martial arts system."

Lumine pinched her chin and looked for a moment, analyzed it with divine sense, and shook her head:

"Just pure destructive power is not enough. In terms of defense and comprehensive angles, it is much worse than the martial arts created by Head Seat Zhongli."

"The control seems to be a bit weak. This is a kind of martial arts born purely for destruction."

To this, Aether could only nod helplessly.

"Although I really want to refute you, this is indeed the truth. Fierce beast martial arts are not as comprehensive as Liyue martial arts."

"But it's not impossible to improve, so I asked you to help exchange for some martial arts cultivation arts that control power."

"In this way, the power of fierce beast martial arts can be truly exerted."

Lumine naturally wouldn't refuse such a small request.

She didn't even need to consume her own contribution points.

She could just take a hundred low-grade spirit stones and find Zhongli to exchange for it; anyway, it's really not worth much.

She has a lot of spirit stones, Jiang Yan gives her some from time to time, and now she carries tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones with her.

The preferential treatment of a god-body genius, you know.

"Cultivation arts are not a problem, but I'm still very curious."

"It's not strange that you can take fierce beast essence blood. After all, although you are annoying, your strength is still very strong."

"But your subordinates, those Abyss people, how did they manage to hold on?"

"A whole drop of peak-stage Foundation Establishment fierce beast essence blood, don't tell me your physiques have surpassed martial arts cultivators?"

Aether nodded slightly and said softly:

"I'm afraid so."

"The immortality curse gave them pain, but also after hundreds of years of grinding, under the polishing of Abyss power."

"The physique of Abyss people is much stronger than that of Teyvat people."

"Especially the Abyss Heralds, the Abyss Heralds under my command are all comparable to high-tier Archon attendants, and the stronger ones are even comparable to top-tier Archon attendants."

"But even so, taking the essence blood of a peak-stage Foundation Establishment fierce beast, they also survived narrowly."

"Finally, they achieved true fierce beast martial artists."

"But for now, there are still very few fierce beast martial artists in our Abyss Order."

"In the final analysis, it's because fierce beast resources are not enough."

Aether poked Lumine, and Lumine became a bit impatient.

"Got it, don't poke me!"

"I still want to know how your fierce beast martial arts should be practiced."

To this, Aether naturally had nothing to hide.

Fierce beast martial arts require a strong physique, and in the entire Teyvat, very few can meet this standard.

To put it bluntly, Aether felt that only the Abyss had this natural condition.

Moreover, this is Lumine, and he is not worried that Lumine will spread this matter.

Simply, Aether spoke directly:

"The practice of fierce beast martial arts is the same and different from Liyue martial arts."

"The power we use, I call it blood energy."

"Blood energy is stored in the dantian, and the dantian is opened by fierce beast essence blood to condense the first wisp of blood energy."

"Afterward, you can refine spiritual energy to polish the flesh, and the flesh condenses blood energy, which flows into the dantian."

"You can also refine blood energy through daily eating, which is also the most convenient way."

"Fierce beast meat contains massive blood energy, which is the best resource for fierce beast martial artists to practice. If you can absorb essence blood, it is naturally the best."

"However, the body has a saturation point. The strongest fierce beast martial artist under my command now has a realm roughly at the level of a Grandmaster."
