Chapter 3026: Special Harvest

"Didn't I filter and save the blood? Do you want to keep it as a trophy?"

"Cough, cough, I mean other things... Forget it, anyway, this hot spring can self-purify."

"Really, what are you saying?"

She complained again, thinking of the series of things that had just happened, so her face became even more charming and flushed:

"Isn't that all your fault? Who knew you had so many... tricks? But you've worked hard too. The Yellow Moon is myself, the power of the Red Moon comes from the hot spring, and the Silver Moon is provided by you... I seem to have been absorbing your spirit the whole time just now."

Her face was even more flushed, but because she could feel that Xia De hadn't been injured by this, but seemed to have become stronger, she didn't say much. After all, mentioning this topic made her recall the process of absorbing spirit.

The demigod great witch then closed her mouth, half-narrowing her eyes to enjoy this final moment of intimacy. Although promoting from a 13th-circle witch to a demigod consumed part of the power of this "Moon Sanctuary," it seemed that because of the full moon tonight and the fact that she was really only one step away, perhaps also because of Xia De, the power of the hot spring should recover very quickly.

And although Xia De had witnessed Chloe being promoted to a demigod witch in the "White Silver Mountains," that time wasn't as close as this time. He could even be said to have been completely close to Blaney's soul just now, witnessing the entire process of her promotion... This way of saying it was indeed very strange.

But in short, although he only saw her take the final step, observing the moment when a 13th-circle sublimation turned into a demigod at close range still made Xia De the person who understood the so-called "demigod" best among mortals other than demigods.

This witnessing once again made him sure that the so-called "demigod" was still a mortal, but a "demigod" indeed had a qualitative difference compared to the 13th circle or the 13th ring.

The difference between a 13th-circle witch and a demigod witch was even greater than the difference between a 1st-circle witch and a 13th-circle witch. It was hard for Xia De to explain in concrete words what kind of changes occurred in the process of being promoted to a demigod. If he had to give an inappropriate example, it was equivalent to an ordinary stone turning into a shining precious jade.

However, although it sounded very strange that "the ancient witch lady was promoted to a demigod by having intimate contact with Xia De," and it might make others misunderstand what the Outsider was, thinking about it carefully, her promotion seemed quite reasonable.

And as the other party participating in this matter, Xia De did not simply expend physical strength and spirit. Beyond gaining the body and heart of a witch, his physical strength and spirit were fully replenished the moment the special demigod sublimation ritual was completed, and his overflowing spirit was even enough for him to release a Mystical Lock.

And more importantly, at this moment, without any change in his own level, the total amount of his spirit and the recovery speed of his spirit had actually received a permanent increase.

This kind of increase wasn't a change in the zeros at the end of the data. If the increase in the upper limit of spirit given by the gift of the black dragon-beast sent away in death not long ago was compared to 1, the increase in the total amount of spirit this time was probably around 10 to 15.

As for the recovery speed of spirit, because there was no reference index, it was impossible to make a definitive comparison. But regardless, the harvest in the total amount and recovery of spirit this time was extremely huge, which could even be compared to the harvest after a complete level promotion process.

"Clearly I was the one being absorbed, yet I also obtained such an increase. I don't know if such a harvest is because my power and Blaney's are from the same source, or because I could originally harvest power by being intimate with a witch in the process of promotion... No, no, it definitely isn't like this, how could I have such an ability?"

Xia De hurriedly threw away this terrible thought and remembered the gift given by the black dragon-beast sent away in death not long ago. He felt that this idea should be wrong... unless Xia De could only obtain such a harvest from a witch in the process of being promoted to a demigod.

Or, it was just that this body's characteristic of "absorbing power that can enhance itself" was playing a role again.

Besides the insights about demigods and the changes in spirit, the remaining harvest was two thaumaturgy spells. This special promotion ritual had important significance for both of them.

【Outsider, you have further improved your control over the "Yellow Moon," and you understand the chaotic nature of the "Yellow Moon."】

【Outsider, you have mastered the thaumaturgy—Mist Moon Tide. Release a large area of bright yellow mist to shroud the surroundings. The mist has supernatural properties and cannot be dispersed by normal means. Within the mist, all objects have their field of vision significantly reduced and cannot accurately perceive direction and time. Corresponds to the "Yellow Moon" spirit rune.】

This ability came from the witch in his arms, and should be considered the first large-scale control ability Xia De had mastered. Although the effect of the ability wasn't very prominent, its true value was that it symbolized Xia De's further mastery of the "Yellow Moon."

As for the second thaumaturgy—

"She" chuckled and continued to add the information that wasn't given while Xia De was busy because of the agreement:

【The 12th-tier witch has advanced to the 13th tier due to dancing with you under the moon; the 13th-tier witch has advanced to a demigod due to your hot spring intimacy. Outsider, you have perceived the essence of your own body; the unification of flesh and soul has birthed a brand-new power.】

【Outsider, you have mastered the thaumaturgy—Witch's Joy. When you have intimate contact with a witch under the moon, there is a small probability of consuming all your spirit and 13% of your blood, causing the witch to be directly promoted to the next level. This thaumaturgy is a passive effect, and this effect can only take effect once per person. The triggering of this thaumaturgy is only related to fate. Corresponds to the spirit rune "Charm."】

Xia De was silent for a while:

"Um... this isn't a joke you made specifically to tease me, right?"

"She" gave a negative answer with a smile:

【This is true.】

So Xia De said in his heart:

"Don't tell me this is the conspiracy of that mermaid? This is very similar to her power!"

He felt he had found the truth, but "She" continued to deny it with a smile:

【No, this is truly your own newly discovered power.】

The Outsider, feeling the temperature of the witch's body, pursed his lips:

"Do you know? If the story I experienced was a magnificent fantasy adventure epic before this, just because of this new thaumaturgy, this book could completely turn into another type of story.

So why?"

【This is your own brand new power, you should understand why.】

"But I just let Vanessa become the 13th circle and sh/ui Blaney to let her be promoted to a demigod, isn't this normal... Well, even if it's not normal, but what does it mean to obtain this thaumaturgy?"

"She" just smiled but didn't give an answer, and Xia De decided that he would absolutely not tell anyone about this thaumaturgy.

On one hand, this effect was passive, and he couldn't decide when it would take effect. On the other hand, it was also for the sake of his reputation. Xia De could completely imagine what the girls around him would think if they knew about this thaumaturgy—

"Xia De, you still say you aren't a succubus! You were indeed lying to us before, don't hide, let us see."

Xia De shook his head violently to throw away this strange thought, which caused the yellow-haired witch lady who was listening to his heartbeat to look up at him.

However, Xia De thought again that since this thaumaturgy could only take effect on "witches," it meant that ordinary female sorcerers like Luvia, Princess Lei Qianya, and Dorothy were not within the scope of the thaumaturgy, and special girls like Grace and Helen wouldn't be chosen by this thaumaturgy either.

"What's wrong?"

The witch's right hand touched Xia De's cheek with water droplets. Xia De, of course, wouldn't say what he had obtained, but whispered to her:

"I just feel that tonight is very magical. We are clearly still in a war, clearly that almost invincible enemy is about to return, but we are now..."

Blaney laughed lightly, winding around Xia De's body like a water snake:

"If it weren't for considering that I have to maintain the best state to face the enemy in a while, even if I feel that I can't do it anymore now, I still want to..."

She bit her lip lightly, and the water in her bright yellow eyes almost stretched into silk and connected with Xia De:

"Time is running out, let's do one last thing before leaving the pool."

She maintained this gaze with Xia De, her body slowly sinking into the water, and even her small nose bubbled a few times when it entered the water. Xia De then shivered and let out a long sigh. After Blaney's eyes also disappeared under the water surface, he, standing in the water, looked upward.

The hole in the canopy still existed, and the bright yellow moon was still bright. Next, it was the final battle.

Not long after, leaving the hot spring where they had stayed for about twenty hours, Xia De dried the witch's clothes that had floated to the corner of the hot spring, and Blaney personally helped him put on his new clothes:

"Teacher often said that the girls of the Sixth Era didn't take good care of you. Now that I am here, I can't become the 'girls of the Sixth Era' in Teacher's mouth."

She said so, and after putting on Xia De's clothes, she went to put on her own clothes. And taking advantage of the time Blaney was changing clothes, Xia De went to check on Luvia's situation first.

The mental power consumption of the purple-eyed diviner was really too great, and she was still in a deep sleep. However, Xia De had fed her potion twenty hours ago, and the 8th-circle girl wasn't afraid of being thirsty or hungry, plus the bedding was very comfortable, so she slept very well.

【Now you know to feel guilty?】

"She" easily read Xia De's thoughts. Xia De was, of course, guilty at this moment. Even though this was what Luvia asked him to do, while Luvia was unconscious because of divination, he was... The Outsider had another question, how did he become what he was now. ===== CHAPTER 3027 =====
