Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 595 Black Scales

The scales are nearly rhomboid in shape, jet black, and layered, like snake scales.

Unlike snake scales, the scales formed by black energy on Han Yi's body emitted a black metallic luster. They collided and wriggled with his breathing, and faint sounds of metal clashing could be heard.

Han Yi opened his eyes and looked at his body covered in scales.

Its massive body, nearly three meters tall, is covered with densely packed markings from top to bottom.

He stretched out his hand, and even the softest part of his palm was covered in black scales.

"The seventh level of the Heaven-Mending Technique... is complete..."

[Main Skills]: Cold Yin Nine-Bend Palm (True Skill Level 8, Cold Yin Strength, Characteristics: Extreme Cold, Exhausted Yin, Profound Darkness); Heaven-Mending Technique (Level 7, Characteristics: Strengthening the Foundation, Returning to Origin, Endless Life, ??? Bloodline Absorption)

"Bloodline absorption... these scales formed from the black energy... seem to be the power within my bloodline... only now it's being used without any side effects..."

Han Yi clearly remembered that during the sixth level of the Heaven-Mending Technique, the bloodline purification process went awry, almost causing the bloodline to awaken.

After decisively rejecting the bloodline ritual, the resulting characteristic is bloodline purification.

It seems that after purifying his bloodline and erasing the hidden will within it, he will be able to absorb and utilize the power within his bloodline.

"Let's try out this defensive effect..."

He gathered his strength and released it.

laugh!

The force was instantly neutralized and annihilated by the black energy upon contact with the black scales. "In terms of force protection, it's roughly equivalent to the protective force of a martial artist at the eighth level of true skill..."

Immediately, he threw a punch and slammed it into the wall.

Bang!

A hole was blasted into the hard blue brick.

But Han Yi was completely unaware; there wasn't a single scratch on the scales.

"It also has a considerable effect on physical defense..." Han Yi muttered to himself, "With this layer of scales, my external defense capabilities..."

This layer of black scales was covering his body.

In other words, after breaking through his black scales, the enemy will also face his powerful protective energy.

With his protective force broken, what appeared was his strongest physical body, which combined various advanced external skills, with maximum resistance to blunt weapons, sharp weapons, poison, dizziness, and shock.

This is equivalent to his three layers of protection. Each time a layer is broken, it brings hope to the enemy, but also a deeper despair.

Although we don't know how effective the Grandmaster's internal energy defense is, Han Yi's three layers of armor should be no less formidable.

Not only that…

Han Yi felt it for a while longer.

The greatest strength of this black scale protection lies not in its defense, but in the fact that it consumes no resources.

In other words, this layer of protection felt to Han Yi like a person is born knowing how to run and walk—it was natural, something they were born with.

Birds are born to fly, and fish are born to swim.

This is what is known as an innate skill.

The essence of the black scales is neither strength nor yin energy, but rather the demonic energy mixed in with Su Muwan's body.

Of course, the demonic energy mentioned here is not the kind of aura found on demonic beasts. It is a more complex substance, mixed with the essence of life, which is automatically generated within Han Yi's body.

Therefore, if this layer of black scale protection is broken, it will automatically recover after a period of time.

"I'm afraid this is the power that was originally in my bloodline..." Han Yi sighed inwardly.

He gained such powerful supernatural abilities simply by absorbing a small amount of power from the bloodline.

The strength of the ancestors he inherited from is unimaginable.

"However, no matter how powerful one's bloodline origin is, the power gained through wholeheartedly serving others and praying for it cannot be considered one's own power..."

Han Yi shook his head, and with a thought, the scales on his body disintegrated into black energy, which surged back into his body.

His body was compressed and transformed back into its normal form, becoming a normal adult's height.

Although he was still quite strong and looked very sturdy, he no longer had that terrifying, inhuman, giant-like aura he once possessed.

Click!

He twisted his neck and stretched his body.

"So much time has passed, and I haven't aroused any suspicion, so everything's fine. It's time to get out and about..."

……………

……………

Beiyuan, the border of Yunzhou.

Snow white.

A blanket of white.

Under the howling north wind, a flurry of snowflakes danced in the air.

The bright moonlight spilled across the snow-white ice forest.

Or rather, it wasn't that the moonlight was bright, but rather that the snow was so thick and white that it reflected the light so brightly.

A white dot suddenly appeared in the snow, and in the next instant, it broke through the wind and snow and appeared more than 100 meters away.

boom! ! !

The white dot rushed into the dense forest, causing the ground to tremble and snowflakes and icicles to flutter down from the trees.

It was a gigantic white wolf.

Its shoulder height alone is about the same as that of an average adult, and its size is comparable to that of a forest bear. Around the neck of the silver giant wolf, there is a flowing mane like that of a lion, making it majestic and extraordinary.

The white wolf was unstoppable. After rushing into the dense forest, it leaped high into the air, crossed countless trees, and sped away into the distance.

However, the white wolf hadn't gone far when it suddenly stopped, its mane bristling, and it lowered its head and growled, emitting a dangerous howl.

“The Ice Wolf Clan… as expected of one of the sacred beast species… they were able to detect me…” A somewhat effeminate voice, like that of a eunuch, rang out from the snowy forest.

"You Blood Demon brat... the stench on you is like swill that's been left to dry in the sun for three days... anyone could smell it!"

A chilling female voice rang out from on the white wolf's back.

"Are you staying here to stop me? Has your Blood Demon Clan also become lackeys of the Tantai family?"

"Hehe... The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Right now, the Gu Demon Clan and the Tantai family are at war in Yunzhou... We just don't want the Yougu King to win..." The effeminate voice rang out again.

"In that case, you shouldn't be blocking my way here. You should just go straight to the front lines," the woman said bluntly.

"Stop us? No, no, no, this isn't about stopping us. It's just that it's a bit dangerous ahead... Lord Alliance Leader, you'd better turn back first."

A soft, feminine voice came from behind the white wolf, seemingly changing direction silently, making its location elusive.

"The Hundred Veins Conference isn't over yet... I have a wise suggestion for you... Go back... and continue participating in the alliance..."

"Advice? What right do you have to give me advice?" the woman sneered. "Get out of my way, or you're dead!"
