Chapter 116: The Awakening of the Emperor’s Blood (Part 2)
The Awakening of the Emperor’s Blood (Part 2)
BOOM!!!
The instant the Primordial Blood Sovereign Pill entered Victor’s body, its medicinal power exploded.
It was like a sleeping primordial dragon had suddenly opened its eyes.
A scorching torrent rushed through him.
It surged through every vein.
Every bone.
Every muscle.
Victor’s entire body tensed.
Heat flooded him from head to toe.
His veins felt like they were burning from the inside.
His bones trembled beneath the overwhelming force.
Even his muscles tightened instinctively as that terrifying heat spread through every inch of his body.
Then came his blood.
It began to boil.
This wasn’t ordinary heat.
It was something far more intense.
It felt as though molten stars had been poured directly into his veins.
Every drop of blood seemed to transform into blazing crimson magma.
RUMBLE!
The entire Sovereign Peak suddenly trembled.
The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Essence surrounding the mountain became restless.
It began rushing toward Victor from every direction.
The flow grew stronger with every passing moment.
Above the pavilion, an enormous invisible vortex slowly formed.
The surrounding spiritual energy was being pulled toward its center.
And Victor was at the heart of it all.
Inside the cultivation room, his long black hair whipped wildly around him.
There was no wind inside the room.
Yet his hair moved as though caught in the middle of a raging storm.
His black robe, embroidered with majestic golden dragons, fluttered violently around his body.
Golden light began leaking through the fabric.
Then crimson radiance slowly joined it.
The two colors intertwined around Victor.
His entire body was soon wrapped in layers of dazzling divine light.
RUSH!!
Victor’s eyes snapped open.
His golden eyes gleamed.
A terrifying aura erupted from his body.
BOOM!
The pressure spread through the cultivation room.
The furniture around him shook violently.
Some objects even lifted slightly from the ground before dropping back down.
The walls of the pavilion began to hum.
One defensive formation after another activated on its own.
Victor remained completely still.
His expression changed slightly.
There was surprise in his eyes.
"This feeling..."
His voice was low.
Almost a whisper.
But the astonishment within it was impossible to hide.
Victor could feel something.
Something buried deep within his body.
Something that had been sleeping inside his blood for who knew how long.
It was beginning to awaken.
His breathing slowed.
He focused his senses inward.
The feeling became clearer.
His blood wasn’t simply becoming stronger.
Something ancient was responding to the medicinal power of the Primordial Blood Sovereign Pill.
Something that had been sealed away.
Something that had been waiting.
Then—
Crack...
A faint sound came from deep within his body.
Victor’s eyes narrowed.
He didn’t move.
Another sound followed.
Crack...
This time, it was clearer.
Then another.
Crack...
Crack...
Crack...
It sounded like countless invisible chains were breaking apart one after another.
With every broken chain, another wave of ancient power surged through his body.
The aura became heavier.
Deeper.
More majestic.
Yet Victor felt no pain.
That was the strangest part.
The process should have been excruciating.
Instead...
It felt as though something that had been imprisoned inside him for countless years was finally being released.
It felt like countless ancient seals that had bound his bloodline since birth were finally breaking apart.
Each shattered seal allowed an even greater torrent of power to surge forth.
Then—
CRACK!!
A final deafening sound echoed throughout his body.
At that instant...
An incomparably vast pressure erupted from the deepest part of Victor’s bloodline.
BOOM!!
His aura exploded several times over.
Golden-red divine light burst from every pore, illuminating the entire cultivation chamber.
If not for the numerous formations protecting Sovereign Peak, this phenomenon would have shaken the entire Salvatore Family.
Victor slowly lowered his gaze toward his own hands.
The skin remained flawless.
Yet beneath it...
Every single drop of blood had begun transforming.
The pale golden blood flowing through his veins gradually disappeared.
In its place...
Fresh crimson blood flowed majestically through his body.
It wasn’t ordinary red.
Every drop shimmered with faint golden brilliance, as though miniature suns had been compressed inside his veins.
More astonishing still...
Ancient runes naturally appeared within every drop of blood.
Those mysterious symbols quietly rotated, containing profound truths that seemed older than the world itself.
Each drop carried unimaginable vitality.
Each drop contained terrifying power.
Victor could feel it clearly.
His life force had multiplied several times over.
His physical body was continuously becoming stronger without him doing anything.
His muscles.
His bones.
His organs.
Even his soul.
Everything was undergoing a complete rebirth.
The Primordial Blood Sovereign Pill wasn’t merely improving his bloodline.
It was rewriting it from its very foundation.
As the transformation continued, Victor suddenly felt an overwhelming hunger.
Not ordinary hunger.
His newly awakened Emperor’s Bloodline craved energy.
An enormous amount of energy.
Without hesitation, Victor waved his sleeve.
Dozens...
Hundreds...
Then thousands of Cloud Spiritual Elixirs appeared around him like a brilliant sea of glowing crystals.
The moment they appeared, they shattered into pure streams of spiritual energy.
Victor absorbed them greedily.
Wave after wave of immense spiritual power poured into his body.
His cultivation immediately began soaring.
Heavenly Genesis Realm...
Stellar Sovereign Realm First Layer!
BOOM!!
Without the slightest resistance...
He broke through.
Stellar Sovereign Realm Second Layer!
Only a few breaths later...
Another breakthrough followed.
Stellar Sovereign Realm Third Layer!
The immense spiritual energy continued flooding into his body.
The newly awakened Emperor’s Bloodline devoured everything like a bottomless abyss.
BOOM!!
His cultivation advanced once again.
Stellar Sovereign Realm Fourth Layer!
Only then did the terrifying hunger gradually subside.
The violent spiritual storm around Victor gradually began to fade.
His raging aura slowly settled.
The blinding divine light dimmed, little by little, until only a faint glow remained.
The pavilion fell silent again.
Victor slowly closed his eyes.
His awareness sank inward.
He carefully examined every change taking place within his body, quietly taking in the astonishing transformation unfolding inside him.
