Chapter Fourteen: Blood Ability Strengthening Point

  The importance of reinforcement is beyond doubt and is also the most crucial point.

  Although it was only one battle, Su Hong had already deeply felt the bloodiness and cruelty of the Shangyue space. The Tian Ti score would be cleared to zero, and those who did not have enough Xue Xie coins to offset the punishment would be eliminated. In the game, if a player died too many times as a super ghost, they would also be eliminated. Moreover, on the last week of every month, the ruler would summon everyone to the Shangyue space for the most brutal one-on-one battles, where it was either life or death, with no other choice.

  Even if he left the Cang Yue space and returned to the real world, it wasn't as safe as he had imagined. He needed to be constantly on guard against attacks and revenge from his enemies. For example, the glasses-wearing man who used the Earthshaking Bull in the previous battle would definitely harbor resentment towards Su Hong. If he were to find out Su Hong's true identity, he might very well pose a threat to him.

  Once branded with the cursed tattoo by the ruler and becoming a fighter in the Shangyue space, it means that one can no longer remain uninvolved. To survive, one must constantly enhance their strength and power themselves as much as possible.

  The weak will eventually be ruthlessly eliminated by the rulers, only the strong can truly stand in the Shangyue space and control their own destiny.

  It's cruel and bloody, but this is the reality that Su Hong will have to face in the future.

  As for this, Su Hong had long been prepared in his heart and did not intend to shrink back. Risks and gains are often proportional, the battle in Xueyue Space is bloody and cruel, and if you're not careful, you'll be wiped out, but the rewards gained from it far exceed what ordinary people can imagine.

  Let's not mention anything else, if he hadn't entered the Xueyue space, he wouldn't have received the Xueyue coin reward, and it would be impossible for him to trade with Li Daren for 5 million RMB. If it weren't for his stunning performance on the ancient relic battlefield, he wouldn't have gotten Li Daren's favor and invitation. The trouble they encountered at the hospital today may ultimately end up hurting them as a family, and his mother's illness might be delayed and worsen.

  From these aspects, Su Hong was actually very glad about his initial choice and successfully entered the Shangyue space.

  There was another thing that Su Hong didn't say, and that was the strange hot blood surging deep within his heart. The battle in the Cang Yue space had been bloody and cruel, but it had also thoroughly ignited his passionate desire for strength. Never before had he felt such a strong yearning to become stronger.

  Recollecting some scattered thoughts, Su Hong stared tightly at Li Daren's eyes, waiting for the answer he wanted, no matter if it was for himself or for his parents, he had to strengthen himself as much as possible and struggle to live on.

  "Blood can strengthen the point!"

  Li Dairen did not hide or evade, and replied very straightforwardly. This point, even if he didn't say it, Su Hong would have figured out after experiencing a few more battles, at most just taking a detour. It's better to be honest now and win Su Hong's favor.

  "Can blood energy points be exchanged? Through the exchange of Blood Coins?" Su Hong's eyes flashed with a hint of contemplation, if he didn't remember incorrectly, when he was in the Tianhui Fang world's Tree of Exchange list, he had seen the exchange ratio between Blood Coins and blood energy points, it seemed that 100 Blood Coins could be exchanged for one point of blood energy enhancement.

  "Not bad, it's just using Blood Coins to exchange. One hundred Blood Coins can be exchanged for a little bit of Blood Energy that can strengthen points. With Blood Energy in hand, you can enhance yourself. The way to enhance is also very simple, through your own Blood Tattoo, you can directly communicate with the omnipresent Master and exchange to strengthen the attributes you want."

  After a pause, Li Dairen's face showed a hint of pain, and he couldn't help but add with a hint of pride: "Take me for example, the reason I can easily leave a clear handprint on this tempered glass table is that I used 100 Blood Coins to exchange for some blood energy enhancement points and added them to my strength attribute. As a result, not only did my health and life value increase significantly, but my physical strength also far surpassed that of ordinary people, making my body much stronger. The wonderful feeling of that blood energy enhancement still lingers in my mind."

  After finishing, Li Daire patted Su Hong's shoulder to comfort him, telling him not to rush and that one day he would also be able to accumulate enough Bloody Coins to exchange for Blood Energy Strengthening Points. However, if he knew that Su Hong had obtained 50 Bloody Coins as a reward in just one battle, he would have been at a loss for words...

  Su Hong rubbed his nose, somewhat speechless, but not stupid enough to say it out loud. Instead, he seized this rare opportunity and continued to ask: "Brother Li, from what you said, this blood can strengthen points, apart from strengthening power attributes, does it also have agility and intelligence attribute classifications like in DOTA heroes?"

  "Not bad, it's just like adding points to heroes in DOTA. As long as you have enough blood energy to strengthen your points, you can freely enhance various attributes of yourself, and this enhancement is permanent, whether in the real world or in the Xueyue space, it will not be erased. The benefits are self-evident." Li Dairen smiled slightly.

  After listening, Su Hong fell into deep thought. The things in the Cang Yue space were more astonishing than he had imagined. Li Da Lei had only exchanged a little blood energy to strengthen his body and could easily shatter a tempered glass table with one slap. What if it was a truly powerful person who had strengthened multiple times? Wouldn't that be even more terrifying? To say the least, those true strongmen were real-life supermen, they just weren't known to the public.

  It seemed as if Li Dairei had guessed what Su Hong was thinking, and he let out a sigh before saying: "I suppose you've also thought of it, Su Hong. Whether it's you who just entered the Cang Yue space or me, an old bird who has been mixed up for a while, in front of those truly powerful people who have been strengthened many times, we are nothing but small shrimp that can be pinched at will. Today, you were bullied by someone in the hospital, and I can help you vent your anger with my energy in reality. However, if it's in the Cang Yue space, if you want to avoid being bullied or even hunted down, you can only rely on your actual abilities and a stronger fist."

  Su Hong looked up and glanced at Li Dairen, knowing that the other party was about to get to the point. He wasn't naive enough to think that just because of a single shoulder-to-shoulder battle and two encounters, the other party would be honest with him, telling him many secrets of the Cang Yue space, letting him avoid many detours. The reason for such hospitality must have its purpose.

  As expected, Li Dairen pondered for a moment before speaking up: "Su Hong, my younger brother, I have a proposal for you to consider. I'd like to invite you to join forces with me, and from now on, we can explore the Cang Yue space together. With one more person, we'll have one more share of strength, and if we encounter any difficulties in the future, it's better to face them together than alone."

  "Pull me in as a partner?" Su Hong was slightly stunned, he thought of many possibilities, but did not guess that Li Dairen would make such a suggestion. He couldn't help but ask: "Li Ge, aren't the battles in this Cang Yue space all random? Everything is matched by the master, even if I want to fight side by side with you again, it's probably very difficult to arrange, right?"

  "It's tough, but it's not impossible. Otherwise, do you think I could have kept up with Xiao Chu and Qiangzi last time?" Li Dairen said with a mysterious smile.

  Thanks to his reminder, Su Hong suddenly remembered that in the ancient battlefield of the ruins, the three veteran players clearly knew each other and had a good understanding. It seems that this battle in the Shangyue space was not entirely accidental. Earlier, Li Dairen somehow made the three familiar people start the same battle together.

  Su Hong originally wanted to ask Li Dairen how he did it, but seeing that Li Dairen didn't seem willing to elaborate, he tactfully stopped asking questions. After all, everyone has their own secrets, and the other party had already shared a lot of useful information with him. Continuing to pry would only make himself appear somewhat lacking in propriety.

  After careful consideration, Su Hong nodded in agreement: "Li Ge's proposal is very good, I'm happy to join, but some things need to be said beforehand. Shoulder-to-shoulder combat is fine, but I don't want to follow certain online gaming guilds where once you choose to join, you'll be subject to many restrictions. I hope Li Ge can understand this."

  "Haha, don't worry, we're just a few people who trust each other and formed a mutual assistance group. We're very free, and our goal is to earn as many Blood Coins rewards as possible. Brother Su Hong doesn't need to have any worries, if he ever feels uncomfortable, he can leave at any time." Li Dairen laughed and said, after getting Su Hong's personal promise, his attitude became even more affectionate and sincere.

  The matter was settled, and the two of them chatted for a while in the tea restaurant before ending this harmonious meeting. As the chairman of Far Ocean Group, Li Dairen was not just a title, but had many things to attend to. Su Hong also missed his mother's illness and wanted to hurry back to the hospital to take a look. After leaving each other's mobile phone contact information, they left the tea restaurant one after another.

  Of course, Su Hong did not forget the previous transaction. Before leaving, without waiting for Li Dairen to mention it, he directly transferred five Blood Coins to Li Dairen's name through a blood tattoo. Although the two were considered allies, one code was returned to one code, and friendship was returned to friendship. Business is business and cannot be mixed with other things.
