Chapter 68: Original Nobles

"This is..." Looking at the thing in Corripo's hand, Chen Heng and Krudo were both quite surprised.

It was a small glass bottle.

The glass bottle was as wide as an ordinary person's hand and contained some black liquid. It looked like black blood and seemed quite unique.

Just looking at this bottle of black liquid, one could almost feel the special energy within it.

It was as if the liquid was alive and contained some kind of lifeforce.

"Black Wolf's Blood... This is a medicine that is very rarely seen anymore in this continent, and it is very precious."

Looking at this bottle, Corripo sighed and said, "If you use this Black Wolf's Blood, you can ignite your life energy further and awaken a Life Seed.

"Of course, its side-effects are quite evident as well," Corripo raised his head and looked at Chen Heng and Krudo and said, "After drinking the Black Wolf's Blood, you will completely ignite your life energy, and this ignition will only stop after you awaken your Life Seed. If you don't awaken a Life Seed, then..."

"What will happen?" Chen Heng frowned and instinctively asked.

"What do you think will happen after you completely exhaust all of your life energy?" Corripo asked calmly.

"Under normal circumstances, if a Knight fails at awakening their Life Seed, most of the time they will be able to survive. However, after drinking this Black Wolf's Blood you fail at awakening a Life Seed, the only thing that awaits you will be death.

"So, are you afraid?" Corripo looked at Chen Heng and Krudo as he asked coldly.

The two of them fell silent.

Death...

With their ages, facing this kind of life-or-death decision, it still seemed a bit early.

However, not too long after, Chen Heng smiled, "With such a great risk, surely there are some benefits, right? Teacher, you left for so long to obtain this for us; surely it wasn't just to kill us."

"Of course."

Corripo also smiled, and the serious atmosphere disappeared, "The risks are great, but it can also greatly increase the possibility of you awakening a Life Seed.

"If a person uses Black Wolf's Blood and dies, even if that person tried to awaken their Life Seed under normal circumstances, they would not have been able to do so," Corripo said calmly.

"So it's like that." Chen Heng felt enlightened and understood what Corripo's intention was.

It seemed that the Black Wolf's Blood was only for those who had hope at awakening a Life Seed.

If one originally did not have any hope at awakening a Life Seed but wanted to forcefully awaken it with the Black Wolf's Blood, their end would be quite wretched.

The Black Wolf's Blood would only be useful to those with sufficient talent and had the qualifications to awaken a Life Seed.

In other words, this kind of thing only played a supportive effect and would not change one's destiny.

Did Chen Heng and Krudo have hope in awakening a Life Seed?

It was unquestionable.

Whether it was Chen Heng or Krudo, they had decent talent. Or else, they would not have reached this stage within just a short period of time.

For Chen Heng, even though his Knight talent might not be able to compare to Krudo's, it was definitely above average. Combined with his powerful body, there was a high possibility of him awakening a Life Seed.

In actuality, half a year ago, he had already shown signs of awakening his Life Seed during his battle with Mader. It was just that he had suppressed it so that he could wait for a safer opportunity.

"If we calculate the time, it's about the right time for you to use this," Corripo said as he looked at the two of them.

"I'll say this first: even though the risk of death from using this thing is not that high, it still exists.

"As such, whether or not you want to use it remains with yourself.

"Come and find me when you've decided whether or not you want to use it," Corripo said before handing the glass bottle to Chen Heng and Krudo.

The two of them nodded to show that they understood.

Following this, they continued to chat before taking out their weapons and training.

Just like before, they used their weapons to spar against Corripo.

This was one of his ways to examine their progress.

After all, they had not seen each other in half a year, so in order to get a feel for their abilities again, he had to do this.

"Your strength has increase to such an extent?"

During the process, Corripo was quite shocked towards Chen Heng's improvement.

"This is quite surprising; you were able to raise your power to such a level without awakening a Life Seed. How did you do it?" Corripo looked up and down Chen Heng's body, a look of disbelief on his face.

Chen Heng's gaze was calm as he was examined.

Over the past half a year, with the help of life energy, he had made great progress with the Solid Rock Body Forging Technique. He had finished the first step and was about to enter the second step.

With the Body Forging Technique's help, his constitution was more powerful than Krudo's, and he was more powerful than that of an ordinary Knight's.

If an ordinary Knight did not stimulate their Life Seed and fought with Chen Heng, it would be difficult to tell who was stronger.

This kind of abnormal performance immediately caught Corripo's attention.

"You're not a Knight, and yet you're stronger than some Knights."

He stood in front of Chen Heng and continuously looked over Chen Heng.

"Why is this, teacher?" Krudo asked in admiration.

Over the past half a year, his strength had also increased, and he was nearly at the point of being able to awaken a Life Seed.

However, after reaching this point, it was incredibly difficult for him to make any progress.

Compared to him, Chen Heng had reached this point half a year ago, but he was still improving quickly.

He could not help but feel admiration towards Chen Heng.

"This might be... because of his bloodline and body..."

After looking over Chen Heng, Corripo came back to his senses and answered, "Everyone's bodies are different, and in this world, there are many people who are naturally quite special. In fact, they might not even be called humans."

"Might not be called humans?" Chen Heng and Krudo felt quite confused.

Looking at their expressions, Corripo shook his head and said, "Do you know how the original nobles came about?"
