Starting from primitive world, building the strongest divine kingdom - Chapter 165

Chapter 165: The Beast Blood Body Tempering Occult Art
“Mr. Enzo, if you want to meet Freya, you can contact me at any time through this staff. However, I might often assign Freya tasks as a form of training.”

After Melissa said that, she seemed to recall something.

She pulled out a newly drawn map and handed it to Enzo. “This is a map of the entire Barren Mountain area and its surroundings. It might be useful to you. With your talent, it won’t be long before you enter the higher realms of the supernatural, and by then, even the royal creatures of the Snow Fox Territory won’t be able to stop you.”

“But before that, my advice is—”

“Go out and see more of the world.”

“The world is vast, and the barren outer islands are too narrow. It might stifle your talent…”

Melissa spoke extensively about a lot of things.

However these things were about becoming stronger and provided some news about the world beyond the barren outer islands.

This information was very helpful to Enzo.

After expressing his thanks, Enzo saw off Freya.

As Amy and Freya left, Enzo felt a bit empty.

At that moment, Mina approached.

His body was fully forged and resembled the image of his soul. Behind Mina, Nellies carried a bucket of rich supernatural beast blood.

“The Beast Blood Body Tempering Occult Art is without issues.”

“Also, the high tower should be nearly cleared. We just need to secure the entrance to the tower in the camp, and the tribe members will be able to enter and undergo trials to enhance their combat abilities.”

Mina said that.

Enzo nodded.

With Amy and Freya gone, their positions in the tribe were left vacant. Instead of appointing new people, Enzo had Ward and Mina handle the tribe’s affairs .

At the same time, he adjusted some responsibilities of some members.

The tribe’s development seemed stable overall, but the situation at Qaidam Lake was worsening. According to returning caravans, many tribes had disappeared, and their members had turned into strange monsters.

The only good news was that these monsters were confined to the islands.

Nonetheless, it was a situation that required vigilance.

Enzo dispatched several teams to investigate.

Mina then spoke up, “Kid, want to give it a try now? It should increase your strength quite a bit.”

Upon hearing this, Enzo took the bucket.

Then he went back to his room.

Inside, he placed the beast blood into a large tub filled with hot water and assumed a peculiar position as he lay in it.

He soon felt a sharp sting.

His awareness was razor-sharp, and he could sense his body growing stronger, as if undergoing extensive training.

The enhancement had no negative effects.

But the cost was high. The supernatural blood used for physical strengthening was valuable, and the demand for higher-tier supernatural beast blood would only increase.

“It seems promoting this tribe-wide might not be feasible.”

Enzo thought to himself.

Suddenly, Enzo had a thought.

Using the blood of supernatural creatures to enhance physical strength essentially harnesses the residual power in the blood to stimulate the body. However, the Ring of the World Ritual could provide energy, and it was the purest form of energy available.

What if he used the energy from the Ring of the World Ritual instead?

With this idea in mind, Enzo became restless.

He immediately began to experiment and, for safety reasons, called Audrey over.

At present, aside from him, Audrey was the most powerful individual.

Upon arriving, Audrey impatiently asked, “What do you need me to do?”

Audrey still harbored resentment about being enslaved.

Enzo instructed, “Lie down in this position.”

Audrey glanced at the depicted pose.

Given her extensive knowledge of supernatural matters, she recognized the drawing as a special exercise method and asked curiously, “Where is this from, and what is its purpose?”

When Andrew and the others arrived, Audrey had sensed their presence but chose not to intervene. She had no particular regard for Enzo and was indifferent to his fate.

In fact, she even hoped something would go wrong for him.

Audrey knew that Enzo’s death would end her enslavement and restore her freedom, and she disregarded Rexfit’s warnings.

“Lie down!”

Enzo ordered.

Audrey reluctantly lay down and, following Enzo’s instructions, assumed a strange posture that made her feel uncomfortable, but soon sensed something unusual.

Soon, she felt a strange force slowly entering her body.

Despite its subtlety, she was astonished to sense her strength slightly increasing.

As a Six-Winged Colorful Phoenix, her natural power was considerable, making this enhancement all the more remarkable.

“What is this?” Audrey asked again.

Enzo didn’t respond but nodded, murmuring, “It seems to be effective!”

Audrey’s curiosity was piqued.

She blocked Enzo’s path and demanded, “Tell me how you did that!”

Audrey also desired to become stronger.

Enzo, preoccupied with his task, ordered, “Move aside!”

“No!”

Audrey insisted stubbornly.

At that moment, Audrey experienced intense pain—a consequence of defying orders. She reluctantly moved aside but thought, “If you won’t tell me, I’ll figure it out myself!”

Moments later, Enzo arrived at the ritual square.

In the ritual square, in addition to the existing Spring of Blessing and the Tower of Sacrifice, a new stone door had been constructed, serving as a passage to the high tower.

These structures were scattered across the ritual square, and each building had several tribe members lingering nearby.

At this moment, someone saw Enzo.

When Enzo appeared, the onlookers did not disturb him but eagerly anticipated his next actions.

It was a well-known fact among the tribe that whenever Lord Enzo visited the ritual square, he brought significant changes.

The situation was just as everyone had foreseen.

Enzo used the Ring of the World Ritual to transport a massive stone, which he then carved into a stone house occupying nearly a quarter of the ritual square.

Enzo then called for Ward.

“This small house, after my special modifications, will enhance the physical strength of the tribe members. However, to prevent it from being occupied constantly, you need to develop a plan, such as charging tribe members to enter and improve their strength.”

Ward quickly took notes.

Seizing the opportunity, Ward also spoke up, “Lord Enzo, the threats in Plata Plain have been eliminated. Should we consider relocating some of our industries there?”

“From the information we’ve gathered, there are several mineral veins in Plata Plain, but they are underground.”

“Additionally, we’ve seen a lot of exiles around the jungle. Many of them are exiles from Plata Plain and Qaidam Lake, but more are from even farther regions, likely those who escaped from the large tribes of Gold Oak Tribe.”

“Should we accept these people?”

Compared to Amy, Ward was more cautious and indecisive, his long life making him overly careful and lacking in decision-making.

“Handle it according to the tribe’s established rules.”

Enzo instructed.

Ward nodded and then left.

The news of the appearance of the spiritual square’s exercise stone house quickly spread throughout the entire tribe, and many people entered the exercise stone house out of curiosity. When they discovered that it could greatly enhance their strength, everyone’s tribe became crazy.

In a small bamboo house on the second floor.

Audrey leaned against the bamboo wall, watching Enzo with irritation. “You’d rather have your people benefit from this enhancement method than tell me about it?”

Enzo replied calmly, “You should address me as your master.”

Audrey fumed, “You—”

Yet, she had no choice but to endure Enzo’s attitude.

At that moment, Audrey noticed a map on the paper in front of Enzo, showing the area of the Barren Mountain region— the map of the barren outer islands.

Suddenly, Audrey asked, “Are you planning to leave?”

Not surprised that his thoughts were guessed, Enzo nodded. “Once the Qaidam Lake issue is resolved, there will be no more threats around the tribe. At that point, I plan to leave the tribe and explore the external realm.”

Hearing this, Audrey did not mock him.

Audrey smiled and said, “The external realm isn’t a pleasant place. Even though you’re at Level 6 now, you’re still insignificant there. Be cautious; if you die in the external realm, no one will retrieve your body.”

“Have you been to the external realm?” Enzo asked.

“Yes.” Audrey replied directly, adding with a hint of self-mockery, “If I hadn’t escaped quickly, I would have been killed.”

This surprised Enzo.

Although Audrey was not as powerful as Andrew and the others, she was still very strong. The fact that someone like her had difficulty in the external realm suggested it might indeed be as dangerous as rumored.

Audrey seemingly sensed Enzo’s thoughts.

She continued with a smile, “Not everyone in the external realm is extremely strong; there’s a range of power. But I have made many enemies, which is why I was pursued.”

“And you might face the same situation.”

“After all, for someone as weak as you with so many secrets, people from the external realm will go to great lengths to kill you and seize your treasures.”
