Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Master of Soldiers

Inside the activity room, while Jiang Ruochan and Jiang Hou were discussing the Divine Weapon Fragment, Zong Zheng Nan Mo remained silent on the surface, but internally he was complaining.

No, President.

You said before that you couldn't let me gain without effort, so why are you now willing to directly give Jiang Hou a Divine Weapon Fragment worth thousands of points?

Of course, despite his complaints, he understood the importance of this to Jiang Hou and did not interrupt.

"I dare."

In response to Jiang Ruochan's inquiry, Jiang Hou calmly replied, causing the black-haired girl to smile.

The matter of the Divine Weapon Fragment settled, Zong Zheng Nan Mo curiously asked, "President, can you tell us what the specific inheritances of the eight major eras are?"

"I've heard you mention them a few times over the past two days but never fully explained them."

"About this." Jiang Ruochan pondered slightly. "Under normal circumstances, you need to break through to early-tier Three and become official preparatory members to know this."

"But today I'm in a good mood, so I'll tell you."

"Besides the deities, celestial demons, immortal demons, giant beasts, witch patterns, and divine weapons I've mentioned, there's also celestial fire and manifestations, although they're incomplete."

"Although these inheritances are incomplete, each type of power is exceedingly strong."

"For instance, during the Divine Weapon Era, the discovered data recorded that before eons, the rules of heaven and earth manifested to form powerful source embryos."

"These embryos were grasped by the powerhouses at the time, refined into Divine Weapons, and those who held Divine Weapons were called the Master of Soldiers."

"The route of this era is to collect fragments of the same Divine Weapon, merge and repair them, unite man and weapon, to restore that heaven and earth destruction power of ancient times."

"But these Divine Weapons shattered into countless fragments during the great calamity, and after several eras, are impossible to collect, which is why the inheritance is incomplete."

"This route is indeed quite difficult," Jiang Hou nodded.

"What about the Giant Beast Era?" Zong Zheng Nan Mo continued to ask.

"This system is even more special."

Jiang Ruochan thought for a while: "Over the years, celestial punishment powerhouses have discovered some giant beast remains deep within the ruins, but those bones have long petrified, devoid of any power."

"In the research data we unearthed from the Divine Era, it once mentioned an organization called the Sage Alliance."

"This organization studied the remains of heaven and earth giant beasts deeply and even invented a blood array capable of converting life, using the blood array to extract remaining power from bones to transform people or other creatures into giant beasts."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hou's eyes flickered slightly, as this scene was quite familiar to him.

"Unfortunately, the plan ultimately failed, for two reasons."

"Firstly, the blood array's extraction and transformation time is prolonged, measured in millennia, and many suitable test subjects died of old age before the blood array could complete charging."

"Secondly, even if the test subjects successfully transformed into giant beast lives, without exception, all experienced consciousness collapse, souls shattered, leaving only the destructive instincts of beasts.

"Each appearance of these transformed giant beasts would trigger disasters, causing even deities to fall, leading to the ultimate sealing of the plan."

Consciousness collapse, soul shatter, why didn't he? Hearing this, Jiang Hou paused, then his gaze fixed, no, not exactly untouched.

When he first awoke, he had headaches for a while and then some memory fragments surfaced in his mind!!

But how could a normal person's mind have 'memory fragments'? Or could it be due to reincarnation, he has two souls within him...?

However, in over ten years of reincarnated life, he never felt anything, or that he had a dual personality?

Finding it incomprehensible, Jiang Hou shook his head, it was too complicated.

Today's club activities ended at five, and when Jiang Hou arrived home it was just half past five, entering the living room, he saw Qin Siyu lounging on the sofa chatting again.

Her calves swinging, adorned in black tights, looked proportionately beautiful.

Though today the girl didn't expose her bottom.

"Jiang Hou, you're back."

"Hmm, I'm back."

After dinner, while Qin Siyu energetically watched TV, Jiang Hou, leaning on the sofa, pondered and analyzed the things Jiang Ruochan said in the afternoon.

Especially the Life Transformation Ceremony.

Unfortunately, after thinking for a long time, it was all in vain, still clueless, finally Jiang Hou didn't bother to worry, as long as he succeeded, it was fine.

Nighttime, nine-thirty

After Qin Siyu returned to her room, Jiang Hou simply pretended to wash himself, then returned to his own room.

Knowing Qin Siyu well, next she'd probably lay in bed playing on her phone for an hour or two, then use the bathroom before sleeping.

Closing the door, pulling the curtains, turning off the lights, Jiang Hou deftly completed these actions, and then his silhouette vanished soundlessly.

On the edge of the forest veiled in black mist, a ten-meter-tall black Giant Ape stood on a sturdy branch, its gaze coldly looking afar.

Just yesterday in the palace ruins that were empty, lay a beast with a body length of fifteen meters, fully covered in gray-black scales, resembling a dinosaur Stegosaurus.

Much as the black Giant Ape had anticipated, with the death of the Black Centipede Beast, other fierce beasts would soon be attracted by the energy concentrated here.

But this fierce beast wasn't strong, the giant beast didn't sense any dangerous aura from it, its level should have reached tier three, but only at the early stage, such 'weaklings'.

Just right, the appearance of the Stegosaurus beast saved it time, once eaten it should be able to evolve.

Roaring accompanied reverberations, soon the forest returned to silence.

Inside the broken palace, the Stegosaurus beast's corpse lay on the ground, its neck and above had vanished, leaving only an indistinct mess of blood and white bone fragments.

Beside the bloody fierce beast, the black Giant Ape stood with its hand's back torn and bleeding, pervaded with ominous bloody evil energy, ferocious and wild.

In front of the black Giant Ape at that moment, the early-tier three fierce beast was too weak, not reacting before it was blown apart by several punches.

The black Giant Beast plopped down on the ground, grabbing the Stegosaurus beast's corpse and tearing into the neck, each bite causing blood to splatter.

Vast amounts of flesh entered its stomach, streams of warmth spread through the black Giant Ape's entire body, where they passed cells absorbed, divided, compressed crazily.

But due to 'bloodline' limits, the Giant Ape's form didn't grow larger, its body's density merely increased.

Simultaneously, as the body absorbed biological energy, the black Giant Ape acutely sensed a faint essence gathering within, eventually disappearing deep inside.

"Those must be the evolution energy then."

The black Giant Ape grinned, picking out the bone fragments stuck between its teeth, then continued devouring, for a time only the sound of flesh tearing remained inside the palace.

The flesh of extraordinary creatures is robust, denser than normal beings, even a ten-meter beast took the black Giant Ape long time to finish, leaving a floor strewn with white bones.

"Phew! Finally full."

The black Giant Ape exhaled a scorching bloody scent, its immense form slowly rose, at the moment its entire body had a strong saturated sensation, its joints tingled slightly, hinting at a second evolution.

However, a second evolution is nowhere near as significant as an advancement.

Thinking of that, the black Giant Ape's mind transitioned, summoning his attribute page, his gaze directly focused on the evolution value at the bottom, reading 100/100.
