He also had a dearer understanding of his innate abilities.
Every time he obtained an innate ability, there would be an additional gem surrounding the golden-red bead in his sea of consciousness.
Every time he released an active ability, he was actually activating the corresponding gem and then releasing the ability attached to the gem.
As for passive innate abilities, they were connected to the golden-red bead and could produce effects without being released.
After recovering his Qi and blood, he cast his gaze at the rock statue in the distance.
Taking a deep breath, he led rhe goat-headed demons towards the rock statue.
A moment later, he stood about 50 meters away from it.
The rock mountain was more than five meters tall and stood like a small hill. There was a black rune crystal embedded in the center of its body that glowed under rhe blood moon. There also were clear purple patterns that covered its entire body.
[Life and death are fated and your wealth depends on heaven. Go Ah Qi, if you win, you might be able to reach the peak of your life.]
Hearing the narrator’s shout, Feng Qi activated his Blood Source ability.
As rhe blood mist enveloped his body, muscles quickly formed on his bones. He took a deep breath and suddenly exerted strength under his feet, pouncing on the rock statue like a cannonball.
When his fisr came into contact with the rock statue, the patterns on rhe surface of the srone statue seemed to have been activated halfway. They glowed with purple light, and a muffled roar came from inside rhe statue. Immediately, rhe rock statue moved its body and sent Feng Qi flying.
Seeing that Feng Qi was attacked, the goat-headed demons following behind attacked one after another.
Balls of dark green fire rained down on the rock statue.
However, spell-type attacks had little effect on it. As the purple patterns on its body flickered, the fireballs that hit the surface of its body turned into sparks and dissipated.
Feng Qi, who had fallen to the ground, stood up at this moment and pounced on the demon statue again. His right fist smashed down again.
His fist smashed into the surface of the rock statue, creating a crack, but it did not cause any substantial damage to it. He was thrown out again.
Then, the rock statue began to crush him. As it moved, all the white flowers along the way were crushed, and the ground rumbled.
While feeling the pain in his chest, Feng Qi gritted his teeth and pounced at the rock statue again.
The rock statue was extremely strong. The only drawback was its slow movement speed.
However, push and pull combat style could not be used with such a domain at all.
Long-range spell attacks could not cause any damage to it. Choosing to push and pull was undoubtedly a waste of stamina.
The help of the goat-headed demons was limited.
After being sent flying by the huge force again, Feng Qi realized that his chest had already sunken.
Fortunately, his powerful recovery ability was activated, and his sunken chest began to slowly recover.
Taking a deep breath, he stood up again and pounced at the rock statue. As he punched it body, he decisively activated his Ambush ability. As his Qi and blood were consumed, his movement speed suddenly increased, and he barely dodged the rock statue’s head-on collision.
As if realizing that spell attacks were ineffective, the goat-headed demons also pounced on the stone statue.
They climbed onto it and began to beat it crazily.
However, their attacks could not even break through its surface defense.
As the purple light circulated, a goat-headed demon lost its balance and fell on the spot. It was crushed into a pile of meat paste by the stone statue.
Facing the rock statue with terrifying combat strength, Feng Qi changed his battle strategy.
He no longer fought head-on. Instead, he would go close and punch. Then, he would activate the Ambush ability to retreat and distance himself from the rock statue.
It seemed that he won’t get injured with this method of fighting but he knew that it was equally dangerous.
The Qi and blood in his body were the key to maintaining the Blood Source state. Activating the Ambush ability was consuming his Qi and blood, which would shorten the time he could maintain the state.
But he couldn’t care less.
However, Feng Qi soon felt that his stamina was running out. His recovery ability and Ambush ability greatly accelerated the consumption of his blood and Qi.
At this moment, there were only a few more cracks on the rock statue’s surface. It seemed to be completely unaffected.
If this battle continued, the Blood Source ability would end.
Just as he made up his mind and decided to try again, a goat-headed demon climbing on the rock statue suddenly let out a roar.
Then, the goat-headed demons snarled and raised their hands.
Dark green flames ignited on the surface of all their bodies. As the flames burned their foreheads, a mysterious statue pattern similar to the one in the flesh cave appeared.
As the flames burned fiercely, all the goat-headed demons muttered prayers that Feng Qi could not understand at all.
As they chanted, their bodies quickly melted in rhe flames. Finally, their flesh and blood dissipated into a pure blood-colored fog.
Just as Feng Qi was feeling surprised, these blood mists seemed to be attracted by some force and surged towards him.
[Oh my, there’s hope!]
“What happened just now? Why are all the goat-headed demons dead?”
Breathing heavily, Feng Qi immediately asked.
[The abilities of these goat-headed demons are actually from the same lineage as your Blood Source ability. Now, they have chosen to sacrifice themselves and use their Qi and blood to replenish your consumption. You are about to receive a huge enhancement, but it is temporary. It will be gone after consumption.]
As soon as the narrator finished speaking, 26 balls of blood mist surged into his body.
As the blood and Qi in his body surged, Feng Qi realized that his body began to expand rapidly.
Behind him, an illusory statue could be vaguely seen.
Goat horns similar to the ones on the goat-headed demons grew out of his head. Clear black patterns appeared on the surface of his body, intersecting with the dark red patterns..
