Chapter 432: Regression to the Real World Method, This Saintess is a Bit Too Cautious
At the same time, Xia Feng discovered he was lying in a soft baby crib formed from the curled-up cyan velvet fox tail. From his physical sensations, the crib was very comfortable, more akin to a mother’s placenta – warm and cozy.
* * *
Well, that’s a stretch. The main point was that Xia Feng realized this strange baby crib was the source of power that enabled the three drops of blood to form a fetus and then an infant.
Xia Feng had seen Jiang Qiue unfurl her six fox tails. He had seen her fluffy, long tails. Therefore, he easily recognized that this baby crib was formed from one of Jiang Qiue’s tails.
It was then obvious that Jiang Qiue’s fox tails not only possessed the ability to resurrect herself but also the ability to help others ‘reshape their bodies with a drop of blood.’ However, it shouldn’t be ‘resurrect with a drop of blood,’ as that would be far too overpowered. As for how Jiang Qiue obtained his blood, that was unknown.
Soon, Xia Feng noticed the reflection of himself in Jiang Qiue’s pupils, a completely developed, chubby-faced, cute infant, naked.
“!!!”
A strangely inexplicable sense of shame jolted Xia Feng’s nerves, causing him to abruptly withdraw from the tracking vision. Xia Feng’s eyelids twitched violently. He shook his head. “Damn it, I have to figure out what this green-haired fox, Jiang Qiue, is up to!”
Taking a deep breath, Xia Feng continued to track with his eyes closed.
Upon opening them, Jiang Qiue’s ethereal, emotionless beautiful eyes showed a rare hint of curiosity. She reached out her delicate hand again, pinched his jaw, and moved it left and right. Then, with a perplexed expression, she began to move it downwards.
“!” Xia Feng exited the tracking vision once more, silently waiting for two seconds with a blank expression before re-entering the vision.
However, he heard the woman’s clear, light voice say, “So small.”
“!!!” Xia Feng wanted to kill someone, no, he wanted to kill a fox and then make it into braised fox meat!
This was Jiang Qiue’s first encounter with the physical structure of a male. After a brief, curious examination, she lost interest and began the main task. The green lotus mark between her eyebrows lit up with a cool radiance, projecting into the fetus’s chest.
At the same time, Xia Feng felt the Calamity Demon Heart beat twice, easily eliminating some mysterious power.
“My ability to control bodies has failed?” Jiang Qiue’s delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly. Her beautiful eyes stared at Xia Feng’s chubby little face, lost in thought. “It seems your physique is indeed special.”
Her ability not only allowed her to reshape bodies but also to turn the reshaped bodies into puppets under her control. However, it seemed there was an unexpected hitch in her plan. The inability to control the K-Masked Man meant her plan to cultivate the K-Masked Man into an invincible Saint Soldier had fallen through.
However, it wasn’t a huge issue. After all, that wasn’t the primary purpose of her reshaping the K-Masked Man’s body.
While contemplating, Jiang Qiue lowered her head and sniffed Xia Feng’s neck. She then raised her head, pondered, and murmured, “The concentration of dragon blood in the blood isn’t high. Is it because there’s no soul?”
As she spoke, her fingertip slid down Xia Feng’s face, her cold fingertip hovering, almost breaking his skin.
“…” Xia Feng finally understood. This perverted fox was lusting after his body – specifically, the blood within it – which was why she orchestrated this whole affair. Well, it was the same way he lusted after Miss Evil Dragon’s Calamity Force.
But Dragon Spirit Blood and dragon blood were different. Dragon blood was of a much lower quality than Dragon Spirit Blood. A body without a soul only contained dragon blood, not Dragon Spirit Blood.
Upon discovering this, Jiang Qiue wasn’t particularly disappointed. Even without a soul, the dragon blood possessed an outrageously high status, which was enough for her. However, currently, the K-Masked Man was merely an infant. If she were to draw blood rashly, she might drain him dry in just a few breaths.
She always thought things through before acting and preferred long-term planning. She disdained such short-term gains. Having finally obtained this body with the highest status dragon blood, she sought long-term, sustainable benefits. Therefore, after careful consideration, Jiang Qiue decided to first collect various spirit materials that aid in hematopoiesis and strengthening the body for the K-Masked Man to consume. Then, when the K-Masked Man developed to around 10 years old, she would begin drawing blood.
Of course, she wouldn’t actually wait 10 years. Instead, she would use the baby crib formed by her cyan fox tail to accelerate the K-Masked Man’s development. According to her estimation, it would only take a few days to bring the K-Masked Man’s physique to that of a 10-year-old. The thought made her throat subtly bob, but her expression remained calm.
While contemplating, Jiang Qiue’s ethereal beautiful eyes lowered slightly. She reached out and pinched Xia Feng’s chubby, cute little face. The infant was too young to ascertain his identity. She planned to check the K-Masked Man’s identity based on his appearance once he grew up! She wanted to know who this genius, the legendary Sirius, who had repeatedly thwarted her, truly was.
“Knock, knock, knock—”
A knock sounded at the door. Jiang Qiue turned her head and asked, “What is it?”
“Saintess, morning prayer is about to begin,” a nun’s respectful low voice came from outside the door.
Only then did Xia Feng realize he was in an elegantly decorated bedroom, with the baby crib placed beside a large bed.
Jiang Qiue bent down, gently picked him up, and slowly walked towards the full-length mirror beside the wardrobe. As she approached, a cyan vortex swirled on the mirror’s surface. She stepped in.
The world within the mirror was a sealed secret chamber with dim lighting. She released the infant from her embrace and stepped back. The infant floated in the center of the space out of thin air.
“!” Nine indigo chains shot out with a swishing sound in the darkness, forming a spherical chain cage that enveloped the infant layer by layer, trapping him within.
This full-length mirror was a God Relic called the “Spirit Capturing Mirror.” Creatures imprisoned within would become completely weak, their minds confused, and their Spirit Base, Spirit Particles, and Spirit Artifacts sealed.
As for why this was done to a soulless infant, it was simply out of caution. Jiang Qiue would not allow any mistakes to occur. There were too many strange methods in this world that she did not know. Even though she witnessed the K-Masked Man’s demise with her own eyes, she could not guarantee that this mysterious K-Masked Man wouldn’t suddenly appear someday to reclaim his body. Or even directly resurrect within this ownerless infant, reclaim his body, and escape.
Although, in her opinion, this was almost impossible. But planning three steps ahead and never underestimating the methods of the strong was always the right approach.
While contemplating, Jiang Qiue’s Spirit Robe glowed. She pointed her index finger at the infant’s forehead, bestowing upon him a Spirit Sealing Technique, a Silencing Technique, a Weakening Technique, and over a dozen other Spirit Robes. After completing everything, her beautiful eyes were calm, and she turned to walk out of the Spirit Capturing Mirror space. The figure in the green dress disappeared.
Silently watching her departing back, and the layers upon layers of seals and protections encircling him, Xia Feng felt numb. *Seriously, is this woman sick?! Does she have to be this cautious, damn it!*
Indeed, upon seeing Jiang Qiue use his blood to shape a body and even accelerate its growth, Xia Feng had immediately thought of his method for returning to the Real World! He had two resurrection points from Nightmare River: 1. An intact Calamity Demon Statue; 2. An intact physical body. This body shaped by Jiang Qiue was a godsend!
All he needed now was for Jiang Qiue to accelerate the growth of his body to its adult form – no, even not to its adult form, just 10 years old would be enough! In any case, he could synchronize his strength, as long as the body wasn’t too small. At that time, he could simply commit suicide and return to Nightmare River, then resurrect in this 10-year-old body. It would be perfect!
Well, the only problem that needed attention was this: this Black Moon Saintess was a bit too cautious. Based on Xia Feng’s limited understanding of this green-haired fox, he might still face the risk of being imprisoned by Jiang Qiue after his resurrection.
