Chapter 34 Hunger [1]
After reaching his room, he kept meditating to increase his essence cultivation.
After entering human champion realm, levelling up his essence cultivation became harder, it took him three minutes to enter the first level and six months to enter the second level.
Right now, two month have passed, and he was still in level 2.
It wasn't like he was stuck in that level or something that has to do with him not being a genius, but the thing is, it seems like normal meditating would not help matters if he keeps on depending on it.
As for his martial art cultivation, which mainly has to do with the increase of his body physical strength, endurance, dexterity and his muscle strength, everything happened in a matter of years.
For level 1, he spent one year practicing the Crimson dragon art, while level 2 took a year and half.
During that night, his cultivation went on with the normal speed that it should and he got pretty tired of it.
'Hey system, can you suggest other methods to increase my cultivation faster than mere puppet martial arts practice and meditation?'
He have asked the same question, several times but the system kept giving him one answer and it was.
[For martial arts, Gain experience and by fighting real human/ beast. Defeating them will earn you half the experience and killing them will do the work.]
[For essence cultivation, The system is still scanning for the location of a bloodline soul that will be good on that aspect, Like the bloodline soul of the "Destruction guru" or the "Desolate monarch" or the bloodline soul of the demon emperor Yao Wang.]
Nevertheless, this time the answer was kinda different.
[Activate one of your bloodlines soul at once and go on a killing spree, the system will enter an updated mode and extract all the energies for everyone you defeat/ Note: After this, your strength will increase drastically at the cost of three months without your system.]
[Nevertheless, Exp received during this system lockdown will be stored and will be calculated once the system has been restored and updated]
Liam stared at the long message for ten seconds before removing his eyes from them and entered a moment of pondering.
'Activate all bloodline souls in my body at once, come to think of it, I haven't used the bloodline souls for something really important unless i was in need of pointers during martial arts training.'
Liam have not even checked out the numerous abilities like weapon summoning, inferno meteor and others.
Liam used [Dimension of souls] and entered a place where he was alone with the two bloodline souls.
At that moment, informations of a finger-activated technique entered his brain and he found out that the technique will help him to bond with his bloodline souls.
So Liam choosed to bond with the [Devil of divine flame bloodline soul] instead of the [Blood manipulator bloodline soul] because of the difference in their numbers of abilities granted to him.
Then, Liam left the dimension of souls.
After that, he stood up and moved essence into his hands as he began to move his fingers in a gracious and fast pattern that was almost similar to the ways jutsu was released in *N.a.r.u.to
After a series of this finger pattern, a large magic circle began to form on the ground and it widened to the size of a mat, covering everywhere inside the room.
At the center of the magic circle formation stood Liam.
At that moment, Liam summoned the bloodline soul of the devil of flame in his heart and the magic circle turned to a flamy one with additional nodes and an octagon.
Soon, the new form of magic circle began to shrink as though it was being swallowed by Liam's feet.
Few moments later, the process ended and Liam feature changed to that of a humanoid covered in flame, it was like a demon burning in air.
Even though Liam body was engulfed in flame, his clothes and the mask he had on did not burn.
'Shit, this hurts a lot! Liam weak body was getting too much pain and he could not bare it, however, it was impossible to undo what has already began.
The only option he was left with now is to endure the pain no matter how long it takes until the transformation is complete.
With every good things come a considerable amount of bad things.
To gain powers, one must pass through different negativities, is it pain? or having to leave loved ones? or having to go against human laws?
It was just pain? it's not like he's going to die or something.
Looking at the rewards that awaited him, the transformation that was painful became a little bit bearable.
As the transformation process went on, Liam's body began to move around the room like he was a lunatic.
His hands clenched his face as though there was something on them.
At the same time, the flame started to spread and cause some part of his body to change such as his face which now have a demonic seal that resembles a dragon spitting out flame, his fingers turned into claws and mouths now has fangs like that of a vampire.
At the same time, eagle wings made out of blue flames sprung out from his back and began flapping uncontrollably, trashing small objects in the room.
"Ahhhhhnh!"
Liam yelled, however with his normal voice which was tiny.
Fortunately, the inn was a busy place where laughter from jokes, moan from sex and angered cries during battles resounded every now and then, thus no one even heard such a blood curdling scream.
Three seconds later, the transformation was complete.
Liam new description turned, from a masked dwarf (his hair is hidden inside the mask) to a demonic dwarf with claws and fangs of vampires, blazing skin, and wings.
"Growl~" Liam let out a short beastly growl as the pain he felt steadily began decreasing but there was hunger.
Hunger to kill and taste blood!
Hunger for power.
"Do it!" Liam let out.
After that, he vanished.
