Chapter 324 - Gifting Bloodlines, Transformations
When Noah disappeared from the territory of the Pureblood Vampyres in the Underworld, he rematerialized in the fiery skies of the First Hell just above the mystical Frozen Plateau Spiritual Land.
He spread his senses out as he observed a few people resting and recovering in the Spiritual Land, while others were in the heat of a fearsome battle far in the surroundings where the Spiritual Land was located.
The Undead legion had formed a circular defense line that blocked enemies from all sides, the tireless undead holding the fort against the constant rush of Infernals as every single death caused by them went on to give Noah more Skill Points.
He could observe the Emperor Penguin in the front lines flashing in and out as a silver light appeared and reappeared to reap the lives of numerous Infernals. Noah thought back to the history he had just found out about the Infernals, where he did not fully know of their origins, just that they had fully come into the spotlight over a thousand years ago during the War of the Righteous.
There were numerous mysteries to unravel with their appearance and the special existences in the Letalis Expanse known as Terrors, but he put this in the back of his mind as he focused on the next set of things he had to do.
His devilish figure sent a telepathic message to all the Harbingers of Sin, calling them back to the Spiritual Land briefly as he wanted to share the gains of the Ancient Blood World with them as well.
The Abhorred Lich Emperor controlling numerous High Tiered Bone Dragons, Blue Phoenixes, and Specters ascertained its Master’s overpowering presence as it roared out, becoming even more fervent with its command of the battle as the Saint and Transcendent Rank Harbingers pulled back briefly.
Everyone was collected in a small clearing on the Spiritual Land that held swaying white grass covered in snow, numerous farmlands holding resplendently glowing Medicinal Plants all around them as they observed Noah in shock once again.
Barbatos floated in the snowy skies as she used her hands to turn Noah’s face in multiple directions, playing with the silver streaks of hair on his head as she voiced out while shaking her head.
"How are you going to beat me in looks as well, little fish?"
Many of the beings in the Spiritual Land were shocked to find the man that looked to have undergone a makeover, his skin getting a slightly pale complexion as his eyes shone with a l.u.s.trously dense red light, the silver streaks of hair on his head extenuating the [Supernatural Beauty] even more as people could stare wide-eyed for hours.
"Bloodlines?"
Kazuhiko looked forward with shining eyes as he placed his hand on the right side of his face, gazing upwards as he laughed with excitement, turning towards Noah thereafter as an imploring gaze replaced it.
Noah laughed as he waved his hands, multiple l.u.s.trous beating hearts connected to numerous veins and arteries appearing in front of him. These were some of the many bloodlines still left behind in the storage rings and pouches located on the Ancient Shrine of the Inheritance Grounds of the Ancient Blood World, with Noah freely helping himself to them as numerous Pureblood Vampyre Bloodlines were displayed in front of him!
He could choose to use [Vampyrism] and simply turn any beings into Elite Vampyres, or simply use [Bloodline Bestowal] to grant them the level of bloodline he wished. His own Origin Blood would be used up in the future if he chose to synthesize more bloodlines, but there were currently more than enough left behind by the old Progenitor that he would not have to do this anytime soon.
The Harbingers of Sin looked at the shimmering treasures in front of them as they wondered exactly how much their power would be boosted, while Noah was looking forward to the new forms they would take after they withstood the tremendous pain that came with the bloodline fusion.
When he used [Vampyrism] on humans, they simply gained the strengths and qualities of the Vampyres, but when the same process was applied to Beasts and Demons, some adopted fearsome transformations as they gained abilities unique to them.
An example was how the first Pureblood Vampyre in Noah’s forces, Steel Mikhail, had simply become a more gorgeous and stronger version of himself as he now held the bloodline of a Pureblood Vampyre, but the beasts from the Beast World underwent transformations that made them even more fearsome. Noah looked forward to the transformations of the Calamities of the Sea and the beasts of the Spiritual Land as he flicked his fingers and sent forth the many bloodlines floating in front of him towards them.
"Endure the pain and enjoy the rewards thereafter."
RUMBLE!
A large among of essence began to converge as he reminded them to endure the immense pain they were about to face, beginning to observe the minute changes occurring on every single one of them himself.
The demonic figure of Barbatos floated into the skies as a misty red light surrounded her body, her already curvaceous and deadly proportions being extenuated even more as bloody wings erupted from her back!
The miniaturized figure of the Kraken trembled as numerous red tattoos went on to cover its body, the runic sigils forming fearsome shapes as its long arms and tentacles gained fanged edges.
The Imperial Phoenix had transformed into a glorious bird of red and blues flames that were mixing smoothly to create an interesting contrast of energies that would burn anything to cinders.
"RAA! RAA! RAA!"
Battle cries were already resounding from the Emperor Penguin as numerous sigils spread across its body as well, its figure becoming slimmer. Its flat flippers shone with a cold light as they became knife-edge, the sleek black and white color over the body of the penguin becoming even more vibrant as numerous sigils went on to cover portions of his body.
Many of the beasts and demons had their own unique transformations depending on their initial compositions, with the Humans like Kazuhiko only gaining similar strands of silver hair like Noah, their bodies gaining tremendous strength while keeping much of their physiology the same.
Among the Harbingers, a Bloodthirsty Kraken had arisen! A fearsome Vampyric Phoenix floated in the skies with blue and red flames painting both sides of her body, as an Emperor Penguin became even more arrogant as it felt the numerous tattoos all over its body. Barbatos’s demonic figure gained unreal proportions as beautiful shining red wings held her in the air like a demonic queen!
An air of regality and nobleness spread out as Kazuhiko and the rest of them rose, shimmering eyes filled with power looking at Noah as they sensed an even deeper connection with him, their strengths heavily boosted once more as their bodies were honed even more for battle!
