The Blaze Salamander didn’t need to hurt its skin to let out a drop of blood.
As a spirit beast with a high level of cultivation, all it took was a single thought for a drop of blood to come out.
Lin Fan used his spiritual energy to wrap up this drop of blood and held it up in front of him while using his Appraisal Eyes on it.
However, he was disappointed to find that it wasn’t what he wanted it to be.
In fact, this drop of blood didn’t even have a trace of dragon blood in it.
It was nothing more than a simple drop of blood from a Blaze Salamander according to the Appraisal Eyes.
However, Lin Fan didn’t give up hope.
After all, this was a drop of blood from a Blaze Salamander that had the bloodline of a true flame dragon. It should be effective in releasing the seal…
So holding the drop of blood in one hand, he waved his other hand to summon out his sword, Gramr.
That was right, he wanted the drop of blood to release the seal on Gramr.
Gramr needed the blood of five elemental dragons to release all five seals on it and so far, only one seal had been released with the blood of Hayase.
Lin Fan was hoping that this blood from the Blaze Salamander would be enough for him to break this seal.
He brought the hand with the drop of blood in it over the blade of Gramr and then in one swift movement, he flipped his hand over and let the drop of blood fall down. The drop of blood fell right onto the blade and then was absorbed by Gramr.
However, the moment that it was absorbed, nothing else happened.
After waiting for a bit, there was no reaction from Gramr at all.
It was clear that this drop of blood wasn’t working which filled Lin Fan with disappointment.
He had thought that he would be able to unlock another seal on Gramr and increase his power again, but that didn’t seem to be the case.
If he had been able to unlock another one of Gramr’s seal, that would have been the perfect power up before his trip to Night Fang City.
Mu Bao Bao told him that it was a very dangerous place and he believed her. So even if he had to go, he would want to become as strong as possible before going, which was why he had done this experiment in the first place.
But now, all he felt was disappointment…
Until he suddenly thought of something.
In the novels that he read, when these spirit beasts had dragon blood in them, it would normally be a single drop of dragon blood or something like that.
So could it be that he had the wrong idea just using the Blaze Salamander’s blood?
Did he have to ask for a special drop of dragon’s blood from the Blaze Salamander for it to work?
As these thoughts filled his mind, he couldn’t help turning to look at the Blaze Salamander who had relaxed after seeing the disappointed look on Lin Fan’s face.
When the Blaze Salamander saw this, it couldn’t help feeling a tremble run down its spine.
It could tell that Lin Fan wanted something else and this time, it didn’t feel like it would get away as simply as giving a drop of blood…
So the Blaze Salamander didn’t hesitate to start acting cute for Lin Fan in hopes of provoking sympathy from him.
But that display did nothing for Lin Fan as his eyes started to sparkle as he looked at the Blaze Salamander.
Seeing this, the Blaze Salamander tried acting even cuter as it knew that something bad was about to happen.
Lin Fan patted the Blaze Salamander on the head and said, “Igneel, can you give me a drop of your dragon blood?”
The moment that the Blaze Salamander heard this, it couldn’t help trembling.
It wasn’t trembling out of anger, it wasn’t trembling out of indignation, it was trembling out of fear.
That was because it had heard Lin Fan intimately calling it by the name that he had named it. To the Blaze Salamander Igneel, it didn’t feel any intimacy coming from it, but rather it heard it as a threat.
It was clear that this “request” from Lin Fan wasn’t actually a request, but rather an order.
But the Blaze Salamander was really unwilling to accept this request.
It was a variant spirit beast and not a true member of the fire dragon race.
So the fire dragon blood that it had was only obtained when it evolved.
Until it was able to evolve into a true dragon, it wouldn’t be able to produce the fire dragon blood on its own. So the few drops of fire dragon blood that it currently had were all that it would have until it could evolve again.
Every drop that was lost was considered a drop that was lost forever.
So the Blaze Salamander was very unwilling to accept this request.
But seeing the look on Lin Fan’s face…it knew that it didn’t have a choice.
In the end, the Blaze Salamander opened its mouth and slowly, there was a drop of red blood that came out of its mouth.
This was a red colour that was different from the normal red colour of blood. It had an orange tint to it and looked to be the same colour as a flame.
At the same time, when it came closer to Lin Fan, he could feel that there was a slight heat coming from this drop of blood.
This heat wasn’t searing, but it was definitely powerful.
Lin Fan reached out and wrapped his own spiritual energy around the drop of blood. At the same time, he also used a bit of his ice powers to cool down the drop of blood so that it didn’t burn him.
After he received this drop of blood, Lin Fan looked back and used his Appraisal Eyes on the Blaze Salamander.
He found that after giving up this drop of blood, the purity of the Blaze Salamander’s new bloodline had dropped.
It seemed that he had been correct with his guess.
The blood purity was based on the amount of blood with the true dragon bloodline that the Blaze Salamander had. Every drop that it gained or lost would determine the purity of the Blaze Salamander’s bloodline.
So losing this drop of blood was a big loss for the Blaze Salamander.
Lin Fan knew that it had just made a big sacrifice, so he patted it on the head and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you increase your bloodline purity. While the same evolution crystal wouldn’t have an effect, there are other things that I can give you.”
The Blaze Salamander’s eyes lit up when it heard this.
This was the main reason why it had given up this drop of blood in the first place was because Lin Fan had given it that crystal that had helped it evolve.
While the taming would make Lin Fan’s orders more effective on his pets, it wasn’t as if it was an absolute contract. That was because they were pets and not slaves or puppets, so they had their own thoughts.𝑶𝑣𝐋𝐞xt.𝗇𝓔t
If there was a request that went against the bottom line of the pets, it would still be able to reject the request.
In the end, the Blaze Salamander accepted since if Lin Fan could pull out one thing like this that would help it evolve, then it was possible that Lin Fan would be able to bring out more things like this.
It did it for the future.
And it wasn’t disappointed with the result.
Hearing this, the Blaze Salamander rubbed up against Lin Fan’s hand that was petting it on the head.
With the drop of blood, Lin Fan summoned out Gramr again.
This time, when the drop of blood came near Gramr, there was a tremble that filled the blade, reaching the hilt that Lin Fan was holding.
Feeling this, he knew that this time, it would work.
So without hesitation, he flipped his hand and let the drop of blood fall down onto the blade of Gramr.
The moment that the drop of blood touched the blade of Gramr, there were flames that suddenly appeared around the blade.
Lin Fan couldn’t help being taken aback by this since he hadn’t seen anything like this last time.
Last time, Gramr had gotten some of Hayase’s blood while fighting, which had allowed it to break one of its seals. It hadn’t released this kind of phenomenon when it broke through the seal back then.
So Lin Fan couldn’t help being surprised by this sudden change with Gramr.
As the flames appeared, the Blaze Salamander who had been watching on the side couldn’t help being filled with fear.
There was a strong feeling of death that came from this blade covered in fear and it couldn’t help moving back as much as possible. Even when its back was pressed against the wall, the Blaze Salamander didn’t think that it was far enough back from the blade.
It did all it could to flatten its body against the wall.
Lin Fan just watched as the flames surrounded Gramr. Since the flames never reached the hilt that he was holding, he was able to keep it in front of him the whole time.
Finally, after the flames burned for a few minutes, they disappeared.
Lin Fan immediately used his Appraisal Eyes to look at the stats.
When the description appeared, his chin couldn’t help dropping.
