Chapter 478 275: Blood of the Grade 5 Demon Ape, Wealth of the Noble Family!

Su Mu was also aware that directly obtaining the appropriate Demon Blood was unlikely. The Profound Demon Five Transformations not only needed the blood of tiger, deer, ape, bird, and bear.

On the path of perfecting his Cultivation Technique envisioned by Su Mu, the five Demon Beasts corresponded with the Five Elements and Five Viscera: Gold Tiger, Wood Deer, Water Ape, Fire Bird, Earth Bear.

Currently, Su Mu had consumed Fire Sparrow Blood of unknown grade and Seventh-Grade Cold Ape Essence Blood. Back in the Qifeng Mountain Range, Su Mu had a strong desire to obtain White Tiger Blood to perfect his Martial Arts.

"That Dangling Eye White Tiger is most likely an Upper Three Grades of the Great Demon, and the Fire Sparrow that fought with it is likely the same grade of demon... It might have exhausted its essence blood for Nirvana rebirth, resulting in its decline in strength and realm, which allowed Yan Xiaolan and I to obtain it."

After leaving the Land of Cyan Clouds, Su Mu became increasingly aware of the extraordinary nature of Fire Sparrow and Dangling Eye White Tiger. Now, even though he possessed the strength to crush a Fifth-Grade Cultivator, he still didn't consider himself having the ability to break the fog-shrouded land and truly access the White Tiger's corpse.

It's important to have self-awareness. Although he couldn't do it now, Su Mu had strong confidence that he would definitely be able to when he returned to the Land of Cyan Clouds in the future!

"Water and fire already have corresponding Demon Blood. After the Fire Sparrow Blood was integrated into my heart, among the Five Elements Gang Force, my mastery over Fire Attribute Gang Force is the strongest—not just the affinity but also the amount lost during conversion is the smallest, while the Water Gang condensed by the kidney with Cold Ape Essence Blood comes second."

Obtaining a suitable Demon Blood would benefit both Su Mu's current strength and his future Martial Dao.

Thoughts flowed through his mind.

Su Mu opened the first jar of Demon Blood, his eyes slightly narrowed as he quietly entered Soul Incarnation state.

"Hiss hiss hiss—!"

Upon close inspection, a blood mist with yin cold permeated from the first jar of Essence Blood, within which condensed a massive blood-colored giant snake, whose scarlet eyes stared intently at Su Mu, flicking its eerie snake tongue, making it quite creepy.

Water attribute, Demon Snake.

"Indeed, Sixth-Grade Demon Blood... Though not suitable for cultivation, it can be used for Artifact Refining, Alchemy, or sold later."

Taking a glance, Su Mu resealed the jar and turned his gaze to the second jar of Demon Blood.

"Moo moo moo—!"

This time, the blood mist also conveyed yin coldness, but was not entirely the same as before. From the mist emerged a bovine Demon Beast, its entire body covered in fur with a ghostly blue sheen.

Water attribute, Demon Bull.

After seeing the second jar, Su Mu actually had a guess that the remaining jar was likely water attribute, unless it was Sixth-Grade ape type, which would otherwise be useless for his cultivation.

But there is rarely such coincidence in the world, and primate demon beasts like apes are generally rarer than ordinary demon beasts, and even lower grades are scarce. For this reason, Su Mu still obtained that jar of Cold Ape Essence Blood in Tao Xingzheng's secret chamber.

The third jar opened, and as expected, it was still water attribute, and the blood from the two previous jars had been used somewhat, particularly the Demon Snake Blood which had been nearly half consumed.

But Su Mu's eyes suddenly brightened.

"Roar roar roar—!"

A powerful ape howl echoed in his ears, and amidst the icy blood mist formed a demon ape nearly three zhang tall. Its eyes were more spirited than the Demon Beast shadows seen in the previous jars, and it possessed a stronger presence compared to the other two.

"This isn't Sixth-Grade Demon Blood... It's Fifth-Grade Demon Beast Blood, and it's Water Attribute Demon Ape Blood!"

Seeing this demon ape, Su Mu slightly gasped for breath, truly a case of 'searching high and low only to find it effortlessly'!

At the same time, Su Mu also noticed that this jar of Demon Ape Blood had not been consumed much by Tao Han, after considering briefly, Su Mu recalled something recorded in the "Profound Snake Technique" he had read earlier.

"Demon Martial Artist doesn't necessarily need to consume the corresponding Demon Blood. Same attribute Demon Blood can be partially consumed for Cultivation Techniques, or even higher-grade same attribute Demon Blood can assist in Breaking Realm..."

"This jar of Fifth-Grade Demon Ape Blood is most likely the case. Tao Han usually refrains from using it recklessly, which ultimately fulfilled my needs... truly a great benefactor."

Su Mu's eyes shone brightly; consuming Demon Blood would invoke some commotion, seeing the movement in the east, Tao Han had been taken away by Tao Family members, and this secluded place was perfect for merging Demon Blood into the body.

With a thought, Su Mu immediately organized all the information regarding the Water Ape path in the Profound Demon Five Transformations that he had previously inferred, and after clearing his mind, he focused intently on cultivation.

"Gulp!"

Su Mu directly tilted his head back and drank a small mouthful of Demon Blood. Demon Beasts are born as cultivators, and ordinary cultivators faced with demons of the same tier face defeat, even death.

With a naturally strong physique and vigorous Qi Blood, the blood circulating within Demon Beasts is inherently domineering, which is why human cultivators need to refine Demon Blood and spiritual materials into Elixirs; ordinary human cultivators cannot withstand the direct tyrannical nature of Demon Blood, unable to directly consume it.

While Tao Han, a Fifth-Grade Demon Martial Artist, possessed valuable Fifth-Grade Demon Ape Blood, he also somewhat lacked strength, as even with his physique as a Fifth-Grade Demon Martial Artist, it was challenging to directly ingest the turbulent Demon Ape Blood.

If Tao Han were to see Su Mu consuming it this way, he would be dumbfounded, believing Su Mu had gone mad.

Demon Blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth.

The raging Demon Ape Blood wreaked havoc within Su Mu's body, seemingly unwilling to be consumed by Su Mu and ready to fight to the death; Su Mu would not indulge it.

"I consumed the Fire Sparrow Blood... must I fear you, mere Fifth-Grade Demon Blood? Suppress it for me!"

Amidst the high-pitched sparrow cries and cold ape roars, the shadows of Fire Sparrow and Cold Ape appeared on Su Mu's left and right, resembling spiritual Protectors.
