Prime Originator Chapter 787: Intermediate Second Stage

Chapter 787: Intermediate Second Stage

While the spatial storm continued to hover above the Abyssal Wood Forest, the surface below entered a period of silence.
Half of the four tribes' warriors busied themselves with dismantling demon corpses, refining recovery medicines, or either recuperating while others cultivated.
Nevertheless, some of them could not help but glance over to the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman's direction.
"This is…" an Extremity-rank Battle Master uttered.
The overflowing dark energy rippled into the surroundings as the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman drew it out of the Demon King-level demon core for his cultivation.
The four tribes could not guess its grade, but they could tell it was of higher quality than Arch Demon-level demon cores.
"That core in Senior One-Eye's hand is so rich in dark energy. Don't tell me it's the demon core of a Demon Lord?"
"Surely not, right? Was there a Demon Lord-level Tomb around here?"
"There isn't, but there are also rumors that a Demon King-level Tomb lies within this forest—In fact, isn't that the entrance over there?"
The Battle Masters all threw their gazes at the entrance by the central tree before they realized astonished faces.
"Doesn't that mean Senior One-Eye is actually holding the Demon King-level demon core from the tomb? Did he really conquer the Demon King-level Tomb?" a High-rank Battle Master uttered with surprise.
"Fuuu…" another High-rank Battle Master sucked in a deep breath and exhaled before saying, "Whether it's true or not isn't important. That—"
The High-rank Battle Master wanted to say the demon core doesn't belong to any of them, so they can only admire and envy it.
However, he was quickly interrupted before he could finish speaking.
"That's right; it's not important. Whether it's a Demon Lord-level or Demon King-level demon core, they are both priceless treasures that even the Battle God cannot ignore. If the Battle God hears of it, he will definitely try to snatch it."
The Extremity-rank Battle Master from the Cold Gale Tribe spoke.
"If we let the Battle God learn of this demon core, wouldn't we be able to build a relationship with the Battle God Palace?"
A High-rank Battle Master from the Cold Gale Tribe mentioned before getting smacked by an Extremity-rank Battle Master from the Sky Sword Tribe.
"How dare you hit me!" the High-rank Battle Master exploded.
However, the Extremity-rank Battle Master exploded even more furiously, not backing down in the slightest, causing tension between the tribes.
"Are my tribesmen people you can casually hit?" a Cold Gale Tribe's Extremity-rank Battle Master questioned with a threatening tone.
"You better warn your tribesman to watch their tongues!" the Sky Sword Tribe's Battle Master barked. "Do you think Senior One-Eye could have obtained the suspected Demon King-level demon core on his own?"
"Definitely not. Young Master Leonhardt would have played an important role in conquering the Demon King-level Tomb to obtain it, and yet the demon core is in Senior One-Eye's hand. So what does that tell you? Young Master Leonhardt doesn't care about it!"
The Sky Sword Tribe's Battle Master strongly believed the conquered Demon King-level Tomb was all due to Young Master Leonhardt.
He wouldn't have thought so before, but after seeing the person battle two Arch Demons, it was hard not to believe in the person's extreme capabilities.
"The Cold Gale Tribe was in the wrong and should apologize," a Western Blackriver Tribe's Battle Master interjected and said,
"What your tribesman said is unacceptable. Do you want others to think you are planning to backstab Senior One-Eye and Young Master Leonhardt?"
"Of course not," the Cold Gale Tribe's Extremity-rank Battle Master frowned.
"Then apologize—not only to us but also to Senior One-Eye and Young Master Leonhardt," the Western Blackriver Tribe's Battle Master strongly asserted.
The Cold Gale Tribe's Extremity-rank Battle Master was displeased by the person's tone.
"Don't go too far."
"This isn't about going too far; this is about whether your tribe wants forgiveness or not. Do you believe Senior One-Eye will stop at the Battle King Realm? No, he won't. He will definitely become a Battle God in the future," the Western Blackriver Tribe's Battle Master stated.
"Not just any Battle God either," the Sky Sword Tribe's Battle Master adds, "A Demon King-level demon core is something the world has never seen before. If Senior One-Eye has something like that, he has a chance to become something beyond a Battle God."
"And what makes you think Senior One-Eye can achieve that?" the Cold Gale Tribe's Battle Master retorted.
However, his foolish question made others snicker in response.
"Heh. Do you even need to ask something so obvious? If a warrior with a shattered core can cultivate the body again, then anything is possible," the Sky Sword Tribe's Battle Master ridiculed.
"Rather than trying to curry favor with a Battle God you may or may not meet in your entire lifetime, it's better to improve your relationship with a future Battle God that you are already acquainted with."
While the four tribes bickered without their leaders around, neither the One-Eyed Venerable Shaman, Aria, nor Leon was aware of it, simply immersed in their cultivation.
Leon emptied bottles after bottles of demon blood to refine the blood essences and absorbed the origin blood.
Gradually, there was nothing left to absorb.
A few moments later, his eyes snapped open with a flash of crimson light while his body exuded overflowing vigor.
He has accumulated 599 types of origin blood!
"I've made it past the halfway mark in one session, not bad," Leon casually remarked to himself as he reflected on his progress.
He was neither impressed nor disappointed by it.
Of the roughly 1800 origin blood he absorbed, only 414 origin blood were unique in addition to the 185 unique origin blood he accumulated.
Although the amount was higher than his expectation, it was also less than he had hoped.
Nevertheless, it was clear that Greater Demons provided more diversity of origin blood for him to improve and further his blood-refining phase in comparison to Lesser Demons.
'Should I let the demons grow a bit before I hunt?' Leon thought to himself before shaking his head in the next moment.
Whatever unique origin blood the creatures inside the Radiant Heaven Realmship had to offer, he could collect them himself once he binds the Radiant Heaven Realmship.
