I Can Use Myriad Divine Abilities-Chapter 192: Blood Lotus Seed

This blood pool is extremely eerie.

It is ten feet square and forms a perfect circle, like a massive ocean bowl placed precisely in the center of the cave.

The outer wall of the pool, in both color and texture, is identical to the stalactites hanging down.

However, it shows no signs of human carving; it seems more like a masterpiece of nature!

And the water in the blood pool, dark red and deep like a mysterious abyss, has a calm surface that gives an unfathomable feeling.

When Zhang Yuan gazed into the blood pool, he experienced a sense of disorientation.

An inexplicable panic arose in his heart!

Of course, with his strong will, this fear lasted only a moment.

Zhang Yuan walked around the blood pool.

He found nothing new.

However, during his observation, the Red Blood Saber nurtured in his left hand conveyed a sense of yearning!

Zhang Yuan was moved and immediately summoned this divine weapon again.

The Red Blood Saber emitted a faint glow in the palm of his hand.

It brightened and dimmed as if it were breathing.

After a brief contemplation, Zhang Yuan held the Red Blood Saber and slowly plunged the blade into the dark red water.

The next moment, the previously calm surface of the pool surged with waves!

Thick, viscous red blood began to swirl around the center point, spinning faster and faster.

Strangely, this center point was also moving.

In just a few breaths, it moved to the position where the Red Blood Saber was inserted!

The next moment, the divine weapon suddenly generated a powerful suction.

Absorbing the pool water like a whale!

Under Zhang Yuan’s watchful gaze, the water level in the blood pool began to drop.

It started very slowly, falling drop by drop.

But as time passed, the speed of the pool water’s disappearance accelerated, inch by inch it fell!

And the Red Blood Saber in Zhang Yuan’s hand shone more and more brightly.

As the water level’s descent increased dramatically, he had to bend down to keep the blade submerged.

Within the time it takes to sip half a cup of tea, sections of bones appeared in Zhang Yuan’s sight.

The pool’s bottom was filled with dense white bones!

When the last drop of water was thoroughly absorbed by the Red Blood Saber, Zhang Yuan saw the full extent of the blood pool.

It was about five feet deep, with layers of overlapping and crisscrossing bones at the bottom, too numerous to count.

But in the center position, countless bones interwove into a long section of bone lotus root.

A lotus root formed from bones!

And at the midsection of the bone lotus root, a snow-white jade-like lotus seedpod emerged!

This fist-sized seedpod seemed carved from the finest mutton fat jade, pure and unstained, emitting an almost sacred glow that firmly captivated Zhang Yuan’s gaze.

He sheathed the Red Blood Saber again, instinctively reaching out to pluck it.

The instant Zhang Yuan’s fingers touched the seedpod, he heard a "pop" as the seedpod automatically fell into his palm.

At the same time, the long stem connecting the lotus root turned instantly to ash.

This transformation not only occurred on the long stem but also spread to the bone lotus root below,

and quickly encompassed all the bones at the pool bottom! 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Wisps of white smoke rose.

Zhang Yuan instinctively stood upright, taking several steps back.

Crack!

With a crisp cracking sound, the entire blood pool fractured and completely collapsed.

Zhang Yuan couldn’t help but gasp, his gaze falling on the seedpod in his hand.

At some point, the surface of the seedpod had split open with seam-like cracks, revealing the lotus seeds embedded inside and unleashing a peculiar fragrance.

Zhang Yuan sniffed it, feeling somewhat intoxicated.

Inside the lotus seedpod, there were six lotus seeds, each one crystal clear, resembling a ruby.

The scent it emitted became more and more intense, causing Zhang Yuan to salivate and experience a strong desire to eat them!

Pa!

Another soft sound, and the seedpod crumbled in his palm.

All six blood lotus seeds were fully exposed!

Each one was plump and gleaming, their luster and aroma incredibly tempting, as if urging Zhang Yuan to quickly consume them.

But Zhang Yuan had no idea what these things were, so he was hesitant to eat them without caution.

If something went wrong, it might lead to his demise!

At this moment, the Red-eyed Crow suddenly flew over, landing steadily on his arm.

Stretching its head, it grabbed a blood lotus seed with its beak.

It swallowed it whole!

And after devouring the blood lotus seed, the Red-eyed Crow tilted its head to glance at Zhang Yuan.

Its eyes seemed to hold a mocking expression.

As if to ridicule him for not recognizing its worth!

At this very moment, Zhang Yuan noticed that the remaining five blood lotus seeds in his palm were slightly less vibrant than when they had first been peeled off.

Realizing something was amiss!

Without any further hesitation, Zhang Yuan raised his hand and ate one of the blood lotus seeds.

The instant it entered his mouth, it instantly turned into a warm current.

Sliding down his throat directly into his stomach!

Zhang Yuan felt as if a fire had ignited in his stomach, and streams of heat quickly penetrated his internal organs.

Reaching his limbs and bones!

His body’s Qi Blood surged, feeling power coursing through him.

The sensation was utterly comfortable!

Next, Zhang Yuan consumed the second, third...

He swallowed all of the blood lotus seeds!

For every moment delayed, the luster of the blood lotus seed would fade slightly.

His intuition told Zhang Yuan that any further delay would render them ineffective!

Once all the blood lotus seeds were consumed, Zhang Yuan felt as if he were placed in a furnace, his whole body growing blisteringly hot.

His skin turned bright red, like a freshly cooked shrimp.

Sweat, as large as beans, continuously formed on his forehead and dripped to the ground, sizzling into smoke!

In just a short time, Zhang Yuan’s Qi Blood expanded to the extreme.

Feeling as if he could explode at any moment!

Despite this, Zhang Yuan did not lose his composure.

He immediately removed his outerwear and began practicing the Blood Evil Palm!

This palm technique consumes a lot of Qi Blood, and normally requires medicinal baths to avoid damaging one’s foundation.

Thus Zhang Yuan’s progress in practicing was slow.

But now, as he refined the Blood Evil Palm, it felt boundlessly smooth.

With each strike, his Qi Blood gradually stabilized.

While Zhang Yuan’s palms emitted streams of faintly visible blood mist, slowly filling the cavern.

Sudden flashes of insight appeared in his mind, deepening his understanding of this palm technique.

Many previous doubts and obstacles were unexpectedly resolved!

The more Zhang Yuan practiced, the more absorbed and fascinated he became.

His comprehension of the Blood Evil Palm climbed continuously, reaching a certain pinnacle.

Then breaking through in a flash.

Zhang Yuan couldn’t help but let out a long howl.

The sound was full of boundless joy and cheer.

His palms struck the rocky wall beside him heavily.

Boom!

Two cleaver-like palm impressions appeared on the hard rock, exceeding three inches deep!

The palms were as red as blood.

The next moment, Zhang Yuan took a deep breath and withdrew his hands.

He steadied himself and opened the Divine Nest panel.
