Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword

Chapter 154: Essence Blood of the Gold Devouring Clan

Zhou Heng picked up the jade bottle, and the instant he touched it, a stream of information immediately entered his mind.

It was a bottle of blood, purified essence blood from an ancient and mysterious race known as the Gold Devouring Clan. This race had an innate ability to devour metal to strengthen their bodies. Not only was their brutal strength formidable, but their flesh was like metal, indestructible!

If one could refine this bottle of essence blood, then they might gain the ability of the Gold Devouring Clan. However, if one could not subdue the violent force within the essence blood, the outcome would be dire—transformed into metal by the essence blood, one would die instantly!

Moreover, the chances of failure were far greater than those of success, truly an extremely dangerous endeavor. But if one survived, the power of the body would be elevated to a terrifying level, and the defensive power would be exceedingly formidable!

Zhou Heng’s heart was pounding with excitement!

Strictly speaking, the characteristic of the Gold Devouring Clan was actually not much different from the Black Sword; one devoured metal while the other consumed the essence of the dead. One increased physical strength and a sturdy physique, and the other increased the accumulation of spiritual power.

Since the two did not conflict, why not have both?

As for the possibility of being unable to subdue the essence blood, Zhou Heng naturally did not even consider it. The Black Sword could suppress the Eternal; it certainly wouldn’t be afraid of any potential revolt from this bottle of essence blood!

Without a moment’s hesitation, Zhou Heng popped the stopper and positioned the bottle to his lips, gulping down the blood within just a couple of swallows. Instantly, a warm current entered his throat, moving to his stomach, then disintegrated into billions of particles spreading throughout his body, finally reconvening in his Dantian.
