Chapter 1044 Fourth Stage of Regrowth

Over the next few days, Leon did not re-enter the abyss to destroy the mutant plant hives. Instead, he focused on blood refinement for the Golden Suanni Clan and building up his relationship with them.

They were easily smitten with Leon's tier-3 spirit cooking.

Nevertheless, the Peak Paragon-level Golden Suannis all had their dreams shattered. After receiving their one-time blood refinement, they did not ascend to the Divine Beast Realm.

Leon had, more or less, anticipated such a result.

The Peak Paragon-level Golden Suannis were the strongest and eldest within the Golden Suanni Clan. But that did not mean they also had the purest bloodline.

A certain level of bloodline purity was required before Dawnchaser and the other Peak Paragon-level Golden Suannis could awaken their bloodline and ascend to the Divine Beast Realm.

After Leon performed the blood refinement for every adult in the Golden Suanni Clan above Rank 2 Transcendent, he cultivated with the Suanni Lion Bone Forging Method.

However, Leon found the Suanni Lion Origin Blood of Golden Suannis below the Divine Beast Realm to be rather lacking.

Even so, Leon still managed to advance to Peak Rank 5 Body Transformation in his bone forging phase.

At the same time, his Wood Law also advanced all the way to Late Seeking Insight-stage Transcendent Realm.

Central Western Jungle was, without a doubt, a great place to comprehend the Wood Law.

Furthermore, Leon also made some progress as Tier-5 Runemaster.

That being said, Leon's most remarkable progress in the past few days was neither his bone forging phase, Wood Law, nor his comprehension of runes. It was his Everlasting Blood Mantra.

In order to give Peak Paragon-level Golden Suannis more blood refinements as rewards and make them advance to Divine Beasts for his own benefit, Leon instructed them to bring him one of every type of beast in the jungle.

Dawnchaser and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis were more than happy to carry out that task.

As a result, Leon collected the origin blood of every type of beast in the western jungle and accumulated over 1000 unique types of origin blood, mastering the Everlasting Blood Mantra's Third Stage of Reparation and stepping into the Fourth Stage of Regrowth.

To be exact, Leon accumulated 1836 unique types of origin blood. It was his great haul ever since he started cultivating the Everlasting Blood Mantra.

At the Fourth Stage of Regrowth, Leon's blood has already exceeded the limits of mortal blood. He could regrow missing limbs with just the power of his blood.

In other words, Leon's blood was already comparable to the lowest grade of tier-6 divine pills for recovery.

Despite advancing his Everlasting Blood Mantra by leaps and bounds, Leon was still a little dissatisfied. An entire western jungle only gave him so much origin blood.

He could already see the difficulty in cultivating the latter stages of the Everlasting Blood Mantra.

'Seems like I will need to scour the whole Desolate Beast Continent if I want to have any luck mastering the Everlasting Blood Mantra's Fourth Stage of Regrowth,' Leon sighed.

Shortly after opening his eyes, Leon glanced at Dawnchaser and the other Peak Paragon-level Golden Suannis waiting for him to finish cultivating. They were very patient and obedient.

It could be said that in these past few days, Leon had successfully rooted himself in their hearts. He wasn't just their lord; he was their god.

Dawnchaser and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis had nothing but awe for Leon after personally witnessing the changes he brought to their Golden Suanni Clan.

"You've all done well meeting my needs in these past few days. Such services naturally will not go unrewarded. So tell me, what kind of reward do you all want?" Leon calmly asked despite already knowing their answers.

"We would like to receive another blood refinement from you, my Lord," Dawnchaser and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis voiced their desire with their heads lowered.

"So be it," Leon acknowledged their wishes with a nod.

Dawnchaser and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis had all tasted his tier-3 spirit cooking in the past few days.

Tier-3 spirit food wasn't just good food; it was also good for body cultivation and nurturing the body.

The Paragon-level Golden Suannis' bodies should have been saturated from the first blood refinement. As such, their next blood refinement was likely to produce better results.

"You know the drill; line up and wait for your turn," Leon stated.

Dawnchaser and the other Paragon-level Golden Suannis immediately lined up in an orderly manner behind Cindertail.

Once Leon started his blood refinement session, a string of breakthroughs followed after.

Cindertail advanced to Peak Paragon while Dawnchaser, Goldenstride, and Goldblazer all ascended and became Divine Beasts. And upon reaching the Divine Beast Realm, they also awakened their bloodline ability, the True Samadhi Golden Flames.

Aside from them, everyone else at the Late Paragon level and below all advanced by a stage.

Some were even lucky enough to awaken their bloodline ability, even though they didn't reach the same bloodline purity as Cindertail did when he awakened his.

Draped in golden flames, Dawnchaser, Goldenstride, and Goldblazer levitated in the sky as they learned to fly for the first time right after their ascension.

The joy written on their faces could not be described in words. And the feeling of freedom was euphoric.

Sometime later, the three newly ascended Golden Suanni Divine Beasts landed back on the ground before every clan member in the Golden Suanni Clan gathered around them.

"Congratulations on your ascensions, Milords!" everyone paid their respects by lowering their heads. It was a historic moment worthy of celebration.

Their Golden Suanni Clan finally had Divine Beasts. And it wasn't just one but three Divine Beast!

In the future, they would have even more Divine Beasts!

Nevertheless, Dawnchaser, Goldenstride, and Goldblazer turned their heads to Leon and expressed their heartfelt gratitude with a bow of respect.

True to his word, the Lord had granted them the sky as he had promised.

Even so, they hadn't expected the day would arrive so soon.
