Li De was so shocked by the attributes of the crystal skeleton that he was left speechless for a long time.
Divine Remains
Attributes:
1. Inheritance: Can transform a human into a Vampire Progenitor (already used).
2. Vampire's Legacy: Can preserve the vitality of human blood (range: 100 blades in radius).
3. Mana Surge: As a deity, even in death, it can attract and gather mana around itself.
Divine Remains are indestructible and cannot be destroyed by any force below divine level.
Description: The remains of a vampire deity, possessing extremely special properties. It is a treasure of the vampire race.
Li De hadn't expected the Holy Spirit to be the remains of a vampire deity.
This wasn't just astonishing—it was downright terrifying.
Could this be considered a genuine divine artifact?
The corpse of a deity. If this were made public, the entire Nolan Empire would be thrown into chaos.
Li De took a deep breath, calming the shock in his heart.
He looked again at the attributes attached to the Holy Spirit.
1. Inheritance: Can transform a human into a Vampire Progenitor (already used).
There was no doubt that this attribute was what had transformed the original human into the Vampire Progenitor.
Unfortunately, it could only be used once.
2. Vampire's Legacy: Can preserve the vitality of human blood (range: 100 blades in radius).
This attribute was the key that broke the chains binding the vampires. Without fresh human blood, vampires couldn't survive.
But the existence of the Holy Spirit gave the vampires freedom, allowing them to store food like humans.
The significance of this was immense. Even with just this one attribute, it could be considered a treasure.
3. Mana Surge: As a deity, even in death, it can attract and gather mana around itself.
In Li De's memories, there was a spell with a similar function.
Forbidden Spell—Mana Gathering: This spell can concentrate mana in a small space, greatly increasing the efficiency of a mage's meditation.
This was a forbidden spell that even transcendent mages might not be able to master.
It had no offensive power, but for mages, it was undoubtedly the most suitable auxiliary magic.
"It seems the milky-white blood in the Blood Pool is the result of this attribute."
"But what exactly does this blood do?"
Unable to contain his curiosity, Li De stepped forward to investigate.
The sudden appearance of the Divine Remains had undoubtedly increased the success rate of his plan to 90%.
If he could find more treasures, it would be the best news for him.
Bending down, disregarding the fact that this was a sacred site for the vampires, he dipped a finger into the milky-white liquid.
As expected, a new attribute appeared on the attribute panel.
Mana-Infused Blood
Effects:
- Drinking it immediately restores 50 mana points.
- When consumed by vampires, it increases body recovery speed by 1000% and can heal injuries.
Description: Blood soaked in a vampire holy artifact, filled with incredible energy.
Li De was once again stunned.
The mana-infused blood could no longer be called ordinary blood. It was more like a vampire-exclusive alchemical potion.
Its effects were even more powerful than most alchemical potions.
The Divine Remains truly lived up to its name. Even in death, a deity possessed unimaginable power.
For the vampire clan, the value of this Holy Spirit was comparable to a dragon's treasure hoard.
It was nothing short of a supreme treasure.
With this, Li De could proceed with his farming plan without hesitation.
"How long can the current reserves in the Blood Pool sustain the clan?"
Standing up, Li De turned to Fred, the vampire responsible for guarding the Blood Pool. Fred, dressed in a blue noble robe, was a level 9 mage and the strongest vampire in the clan after Li De.
The other six second-generation vampires were no match for Fred. His formidable strength had earned him Li De's trust, which was why he had been assigned to protect the Blood Pool.
"Clan Leader, our reserves can sustain the current clan for three years."
Li De nodded in satisfaction at Fred's answer.
With ample reserves, he felt secure. Even if his plan failed, he had enough resources to weather the storm.
"Good. Continue guarding the Blood Pool. Starting tomorrow, you won't need to leave the sacred grounds for the next six months. This place is the root of our clan.
Fred, you are my most trusted child. I leave everything to you."
There was something oddly amusing about Li De's youthful face compared to Fred's thirty-something appearance, but no one found it strange.
The other second-generation vampires looked at Fred with envy. Being trusted so deeply by the Clan Leader was a great honor for any vampire.
Fred's aloof expression softened with emotion. He knelt on one knee.
His emerald-green eyes flashed with a hint of crimson as he spoke solemnly, "As you command, Father. No one will desecrate the sacred grounds unless they step over my corpse."
Li De nodded and helped Fred to his feet. His expression turned serious. "Build a separate room for the Blood Pool, isolating it from the outside world.
From now on, no vampire is to come into direct contact with the Blood Pool when consuming the mana-infused blood.
It would be best to build multiple rooms. Neither the Holy Spirit nor the Blood Pool should be exposed to the outside world again.
Additionally, starting today, all vampires are forbidden from discussing the Holy Spirit. I want the existence of the Holy Spirit to be forgotten by the clan."
The origin of the Divine Remains was too extraordinary. The vampires had never discovered this truth.
But there was always a risk of the secret leaking.
Li De had realized the gravity of the situation. The Divine Remains were so precious that even Green City, with its transcendent mage, couldn't protect them.
If this information were to leak, the vampire clan would be annihilated in an instant.
The second-generation vampires were surprised by Li De's serious expression. They didn't understand why he wanted to conceal the Holy Spirit, which had been in the Blood Pool for over two hundred years.
But whether they understood or not, Li De's orders were absolute. They had to be carried out.
"That's all. I trust you can handle this. From now on, the existence of the Holy Spirit will be a top secret of the vampire clan."
Li De waved his hand, not explaining further.
The more people who knew about this, the greater the danger. It wasn't that he didn't trust the vampires' loyalty, but this was a world of magic.
Memory-probing spells weren't just legends. Li De knew of at least five such spells, though he hadn't had the chance to learn them.
"Yes, Father."
After dismissing the others, Li De stayed in the Blood Pool for a long time. Finally, suppressing his excitement, he returned alone to the central manor of the castle.
The safety of the Holy Spirit wasn't something he needed to worry about too much. The sacred grounds were protected by magic arrays and traps, and the Blood Pool was surrounded by two one-way teleportation arrays that the Vampire Progenitor had spent a fortune to acquire.
If an invincible enemy broke in, the guarding vampires would immediately activate the teleportation arrays to send the Holy Spirit to a safe location.
Of course, if it came to that, the vampire clan would likely be on the brink of extinction.
