Chapter 274: Descendants

"Continue the transformation," Meng Yifan said.

Kong Sanqiang followed suit, using his fangs to bite the neck of the second severely wounded man, and streams of pure blood energy were infused into the second wounded man's body.

The second severely wounded man was a Second Grade Lower Stage Martial Artist; his kidneys had been shredded by a Demon Beast, and he was in critical condition, hanging by a thread. He was only clinging to life by relying on the True Qi within his body. If he were not treated immediately, he definitely would not last another hour.

This time, the transformation process clearly lasted longer, and the blood energy Kong Sanqiang consumed was also greater.

After more than ten minutes, this Second Grade Lower Stage severely wounded man's body jolted violently and began to convulse intensely. His body began to transform toward that of a vampire, and his damaged kidneys also healed rapidly at an astonishing speed.

Kong Sanqiang released his fangs, exhausted, his body swaying as he nearly collapsed to the ground.

At this very moment, more than half of the blood energy within his Blood Core had been consumed, and his already pale face was devoid of even a hint of color.

For vampires, the blood energy within the Blood Core is their foundation; it is their most precious possession.

Vampires can propagate descendants by biting people and injecting their own blood, but the vampires on Earth have not propagated a large number of descendants. This is because every time a descendant is propagated, it requires the consumption of a large amount of the vampire's Blood Core Origin.

And the simplest way to recover the Source Power of the Blood Core is to devour the blood of the strong. The more powerful the cultivator, the more abundant the blood energy contained within their blood.

Unfortunately, after Earth entered the End of Dharma Era, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi dried up, and cultivators became fewer and fewer; it is very difficult for powerful vampires to obtain high-quality blood.

The blood of ordinary people is useful to a First-Grade Vampire, but it is almost useless to those vampires of the Fourth Grade and above.

In order to prevent their cultivation realm from declining, most of those high-level vampires have entered a state of hibernation, using years of sleep to slow the loss of blood energy within their bodies.

Especially now, many humans are in a sub-health state with impurities accumulated in their bodies, and even their blood is no longer fresh. Such blood is like trash to vampires, and absorbing it has little effect.

This has led to even First-Grade Vampires rarely coming out to be active, and the vampire families on Earth are also constantly declining.

Meng Yifan saw that Kong Sanqiang had consumed too much and casually handed over a large cup of scarlet blood. After the recent great battle, Meng Yifan had killed several Third-grade Monster Beasts; their blood is an energy source for vampires.

Kong Sanqiang held the large glass cup and drank it in one gulp. The energy in the blood quickly merged into his Blood Core, and the blood energy that was about to dry up became abundant once again.

After another ten minutes or so, the second vampire transformation was successful. He was previously a Second Grade Lower Stage Martial Artist, and now, after transforming into a vampire, his strength increased by one level, becoming a Second-Grade Middle-Tier Vampire.

This newborn vampire also looked at Kong Sanqiang with immense gratitude; he was now a bloodline descendant of Kong Sanqiang.

In vampire families, the hierarchy is strict; Kong Sanqiang could absorb the blood energy of his descendants into his own body with a single thought.

Kong Sanqiang was the first vampire in the Great Martial Heavenly Dynasty World. If he continued to use his own blood energy to propagate descendants in the future, he could form a new vampire family, and Kong Sanqiang would be the progenitor of this vampire family.

Kong Sanqiang was a Dead Loyal Subject of Meng Yifan and would never betray Meng Yifan, so as long as the newborn vampire family continued to develop and grow, Meng Yifan would be able to have an additional loyal and reliable Vampire Army under his command.

The third severely wounded man was a Second Grade Middle Stage Martial Artist. If Kong Sanqiang could transform him into a vampire, it was very likely that a Second-Grade High Stage vampire would appear.

However, Kong Sanqiang's own strength was only that of a Level 3 Low-Rank Vampire. Wanting to develop a Second-Grade Middle-Tier descendant required consuming a large amount of his blood energy.

Meng Yifan had prepared this severely wounded man also to test where Kong Sanqiang's limit lay.

Half an hour later, the blood energy within Kong Sanqiang's Blood Core had completely recovered. Following the consumption and regeneration just now, the total energy within Kong Sanqiang's Blood Core had even increased slightly.

This is similar to an ordinary person exercising; after exhausting their strength and resting well, they find that their strength has increased somewhat.

Kong Sanqiang drank large gulps of the Third-grade Monster Beast blood again. Once his stomach was bulging, his eyes turned crimson, and his body was shrouded in a layer of blood-colored light. He mobilized the energy in his Blood Core and then bit down on the neck of the third severely wounded man.

Streams of pure blood energy merged into the third severely wounded man's body, transforming the blood within him and subsequently transforming his body.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes; this time, the transformation process lasted for a very long time.

Kong Sanqiang's previously bulging stomach quickly shriveled up. Not only that, but although Kong Sanqiang could be considered burly, now, as a large amount of blood energy was drawn away, his body became thinner and thinner, so thin he was almost skin and bones, as if a gust of wind could blow him away.

After another ten minutes, just as Kong Sanqiang was about to run out of energy, the transformation within the third severely wounded man went from a quantitative change to a qualitative one. He jolted violently, and his previously damaged heart recovered as good as new in the blink of an eye. Then, the strong heart beat continuously, and streams of pure blood energy were generated from his heart, then transmitted to all parts of his body with each heartbeat.

Soon, this severely wounded man grew curved fangs and sharp claws; another newborn vampire had been created.

Kong Sanqiang released his fangs and sat on the ground, panting heavily. His blood energy was almost completely exhausted now; if this guy hadn't successfully transformed, Kong Sanqiang would have had to give up.

"Here," Meng Yifan handed over a jar the size of a watermelon, filled with Third-grade Monster Beast blood.

Kong Sanqiang took the jar and gulped it down. After drinking the entire jar of blood, he finally recovered some strength.

Through the transformation just now, Meng Yifan had already tested Kong Sanqiang's limit. He was currently a Level 3 Low-Rank Vampire and could transform at most a Second-Grade High Stage descendant; this was already very impressive.

As long as there was a large supply of Demon Race blood, Kong Sanqiang could rapidly propagate descendants and develop a newborn vampire family.

Vampires, as a special type of creature, are very fast and have strong recovery abilities; as long as their Blood Core is not destroyed, they can survive.

Meng Yifan took out a large vat from his Space Ring, which contained all the Demon Race blood he currently had. He handed all this blood to Kong Sanqiang, telling him to go and develop vampire descendants.

If those Fourth-Grade Vampires on Earth who were in deep sleep knew that Meng Yifan had a large amount of energy-rich blood but was using it to develop low-level descendants, they would certainly be so frustrated they would beat their chests and stomp their feet, cursing loudly, "What a waste, it's truly such a waste!"
