Chapter 59: Life Entry — Cut Down in Youth — Activating

The evil-aura man saw this person and secretly thought it was not good.

Could it be that I've been discovered?

That shouldn't be the case, right?

Could it be that they've set their sights on the Beast King's heart?

The evil-aura man considered countless possibilities in an instant, yet he still put on a look of delight and gazed at the guardian.

Oh no! Guardian Sir, how did you come here?

He smiled and stepped forward, but was stopped by the Imperial Guard.

How did I come here?

The Octopus Head Guardian gave a strange chuckle twice, waved his hand, the rear door of the pickup opened automatically, and the Beast King Engine floated up out of nowhere, drifting toward the Octopus Head Guardian.

You little thing, you haven't been very honest lately, have you?

You wouldn't be thinking of using this thing to seize power and usurp the position, becoming the guardian, would you?

How could that be? You're joking.

The evil-aura man forced a smile, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes; before his words even finished, he drew his blade and lunged forward—Stanweistin instantly activated, the blade slashing swiftly at his octopus head, but stopping ten centimeters from the opponent's skull, unable to advance an inch.

What!

Hmph!

The Octopus Head Guardian snorted coldly, casually waved a hand, and an unknown surge of impact force instantly flung the man away.

Only saw countless data streams flash in his pupils; the man's prosthetic limbs burned out instantly as he flew, the operating system on his spine also melted, and he collapsed on the ground screaming.

Take him back and interrogate him to find out how he used the Beast King Engine!

Bring back that Beast King heart and core, and order Weilong Technology's personnel to recreate a Beast King Engine!

Yes!

After issuing the orders, the Octopus Head Guardian took the Beast King Core that originally belonged to Weilong Technology and turned to leave.

Meanwhile, on the two vehicles behind the evil-aura man, blood had already filled the entire cockpit; in the instant the guardian struck, their heads exploded like watermelons, dead beyond death.

Our boss Long's Beast King Engine was thus like a meat bun thrown at a dog—gone and never to return.

In the thicket on the other side, Zhang Jie, who had been soaking in the hot springs, slowly woke; the Beast King's blood in the bathtub had been fully absorbed, yet for some reason it still faintly tinged red.

Zhang Jie yawned, and when he touched his mouth he found his hand covered in blood.

Damn it!

Zhang Jie leapt up from the tub, his whole body steaming with heat, and blood continued to flow from his nostrils.

This nourishing?!

Zhang Jie exclaimed, truly worthy of being a tiger with a Pure Yang Body.

Teacher!

What happened to you!!!

Weiniya's voice came from afar, accompanied by the pattering sound of running.

Weiniya! Wait....

Before his words even finished, Weiniya's figure appeared beside Zhang Jie; upon seeing him, her eyes widened sharply.

At this speed, it's obvious she came running on Stanweistin.

An itch came from her lips; beneath Weiniya's nostrils, a cluster of blood gradually flowed down.

Zhang Jie stared at Weiniya, who was fixedly gazing at him and continually bleeding from the nose, momentarily at a loss for words.

Thus they stood there, nosebleeds flowing, eyes locked—one from being overly nourished, the other from lustful intent at the sight of beauty.

After a moment, Weiniya seemed to realize something, and let out a preemptive scream that startled Zhang Jie.

Yah!

Old-old-old-old-old teacher!

How come you're wearing just shorts!

Looking at Weiniya's pretended shy look, Zhang Jie raised his brows in anger!

You little thing!

Turning the heavens upside down!

Soon after.

Weiniya had a big bump on her head, sulking in a small chair beside the RV, casting a resentful glance at Zhang Jie.

Zhang Jie, meanwhile, did not go to comfort his student; instead, he pondered whether this fish, soaked in beast blood and veined throughout, could actually be eaten.

At this moment the sky grew dim, the bloody stench around the blood pool intensifying, making it impossible to sleep here.

Besides, what if those hunting squads send someone to retrieve the Beast King's corpse? Or should we just drive the vehicle farther away to be safe?

And today, aside from soaking once in Beast King's blood, Zhang Jie didn't soak again; instead, together with Weiniya, he dug out some of the Beast King's hide and fur, a bundle of complete muscle from the hind leg, and a large piece of tiger kidney.

These materials are important components Zhang Jie will use later to craft a biological prosthesis for Weiniya.

The rest are food ingredients; Zhang Jie dares guarantee that no one can taste the fist-sized chunks of roasted Beast King kidney and Beast King leg meat.

As for how much was taken, it's simply enough to fill the RV's large freezer—food worries are gone for a while; the only thing to worry about is whether this meat is too nourishing.

"Discovering the Mountain Lord Beast King's corpse has completely disrupted your travel plans; to devour this beast blood, you have no choice but to temporarily stay near here with Weiniya."

"Although Weiniya lacks the ability to absorb beast blood, the meat of the Beast King is also a great tonic for her, and her qi-drawing speed has increased considerably."

"These past few days have been very peaceful; the only thing you need to do is absorb as much beast blood as possible before the blood in this pool fully rots and deteriorates."

"Fortunately, Beast King's blood does not clot or rot like ordinary blood; even if the corpse sits for two days, not even a fly would dare come suck a couple of mouthfuls."

"You think, even if a fly came and sucked a mouthful, it would have to nourish itself to death; as for the bacteria and microbes in the air, needless to say, sucking a mouthful of Beast King meat might just straighten out your mitochondria."

"Time just passes day by day, the Beast King's corpse never reclaimed, and each time you absorb beast blood the threshold keeps rising; although you still get nosebleeds and pitch tents each time, fortunately your inner qi is rapidly transforming into blood and qi, and it won't be long before you reach the third stage of martial dao."

This period was also Weiniya's most boring days; Zhang Jie now, besides absorbing beast blood, just practices sword techniques, then eats and sleeps, and even casually taught her a set of sword techniques for her to play with.

Weiniya felt very unhappy...

Weiniya felt very unhappy.

Weiniya felt lust arise upon seeing beauty.

Her day passed like this in a cycle....

Soon, your tolerance for beast blood greatly increased; now you can directly enter the pond, vigorously swinging your sword technique while absorbing beast blood.

Your physique and strength have greatly increased!

Finally, after a month, with your relentless training, you successfully entered the third stage of martial cultivation, Refining Spirit with Qi and Blood!

But the concentration of beast blood in the pond had only decreased slightly, which surprised you.

Life trait—Premature Death—activated.

From now on! Your chance of encountering danger increases! Your daily probability of death reaches 10%! (It diminishes as your strength grows, currently 0.001%); thereafter, each year you live will greatly increase your probability of death, until you reach 29 years old, when it will reach 99.9%!

(Happy New Year, everyone!)
