There are many unique races living in this world.
Harpies are just one of them.
As a bloodline creature, the strength of this kind of creature is not considered strong. If it is just a single one, even an ordinary adult man can deal with it.
Very easy to deal with.
But it is a pity that this kind of creature lives in groups, and it often appears in a group, and it will never appear alone.
And this creature also has a very unique characteristic.
That is all female.
The same is true for this one in front of me.
Chen Heng looked casually.
In front of her eyes, this harpies doesn't look very old, she should have just reached adulthood and doesn't have much time, so she looks very young.
The breath of life exuding from his body is also very strong, which should be considered pretty good among the Harpy group.
"not bad."
Looking at the Harpy in front of him, Chen Heng nodded, and then walked forward slowly.
As if aware of his approach, in the iron cage in front of her, the Harpy slowly raised her head, her sharp eyes suddenly looked at Chen Heng.
There was tyranny and pure desire to kill in her eyes. Seeing Chen Heng approaching her at this moment, her whole body began to tense up, as if she was gathering strength.
Chen Heng was keenly aware of this, but he didn't care.
A huge eagle claw came down suddenly, but it didn't touch anything.
With a click, the head of the harpy was directly twisted off by Chen Heng.
“Still fresh”
After twisting the Harpy's neck casually, Chen Heng opened the iron cage and dragged the Harpy's body out.
There is a spacious laboratory in front of you. Beside the iron cage is a test bench with many instruments placed on it.
These things were specially collected by Chen Heng, and many of them were specially collected when he was in Hunter's House College, and they have been used until now.
In this entire continent, I am afraid that there is no more complete laboratory than here.
After putting the Harpy's body on the test bench, Chen Heng started to move.
He picked up his knife and began to dissect the corpse.
He seemed very familiar with this process, even a little creepy.
Not long after, the Harpy's body was decomposed, and a large number of unnecessary parts were deliberately divided by Chen Heng.
And Chen Heng's final results are these things in front of him.
A bottle of crimson liquid was placed in front of him, and it looked extremely beautiful at first glance. The blood flowing in it was very bright in color, and it seemed to contain a unique power, and people couldn't help being attracted to it.
This is the origin of the blood in Harpy's body. He extracted it in a unique way and turned it into a small bottle in front of him.
In the past two years, apart from his own meditation and experiments, he has never survived the research and exploration of the Swallowing Scripture.
During this period of time, through his own financial resources and channels, he also continued to purchase different bloodline creatures for devouring.
If it is an ordinary person, although you can find it casually, the effect is actually not very good.
The essence of swallowing the scriptures is to enhance one's own life source by devouring the external blood source.
The origin of the blood of ordinary people is neither special, nor is their level of life high. It is far inferior to Chen Heng's at this moment. It can't be said that there is no effect, but it is not great.
Moreover, although he can strike when necessary, Chen Heng is also a human being anyway.
It's fine if there is no other way, but since there are better options, he naturally doesn't like to attack his own kind.
Although there is no problem with that, it will still be a bit repulsive psychologically.
Therefore, he focused on those bloodline creatures.
In the wizarding world, besides humans, there are many other races.
Such as elves, cavemen and the like, all belong to alien races other than humans.
In addition to these alien races, there are also some bloodline creatures who have inherited the bloodlines of powerful races in the past, and they themselves have very powerful power.
Such existence is the best choice for devouring the Heaven Swallowing Scripture.
Not only did I feel much better psychologically, but the effect was also good, much better than ordinary people.
Of course, even if it is a foreign race, it would be a bit disgusting if it directly attacked the corpse or even the living thing.
Therefore, a long time ago, before Chen Heng devoured the blood, he would directly extract the source of the blood he needed and use it directly.
This is convenient on the one hand, and saves materials on the other hand.
Many parts of bloodline creatures are precious materials.
If the Heaven Swallowing Scripture is used directly, the corpse will directly become a mummy, and most of the materials will be directly discarded.
This is serious waste.
After a period of refining procedures, not only can the source of the blood be directly extracted, but also some redundant materials can be used.
Why not do it
After extracting the origin of the Harpy's blood, Chen Heng walked to a side room alone.
In his hands, the source of crimson blood was flowing in the bottle, which looked very bright and beautiful, making people unable to help but cast their gaze into it.
"Unfortunately, there are still too many impurities."
Looking at the bottle of crimson blood in his hand, Chen Heng couldn't help shaking his head secretly.
The source of the blood in the bottle in front of him has been refined to a very high level by him, and the blood of the harpy in it is considered to be very pure.
But if you want to refine it further, there is no way to do it.
"According to the records, the ancestor of the harpies was a half-body banshee. As long as she is an adult, her strength will not be inferior to that of an official wizard."
Looking at the bottle of crimson blood in his hand, Chen Heng thought in his heart: "It's a pity that, as a descendant of the half-length banshee, the strength of the harpy is not even as good as an ordinary person."
The harpy is a kind of blood creature.
The most prominent feature of bloodline creatures is that they can automatically reach the corresponding strength after they reach adulthood.
This is the case with half-length banshees, as long as they become adults, they can automatically rival official wizards and gain sufficient tyrannical power.
It's just that as a descendant of the Banshee, the Harpy has fallen so far that even an ordinary person is no match for her.
"However, it is not necessarily degradation, it may be caused by changes in the environment"
Various thoughts flashed through Chen Heng's mind, thinking to himself: "The so-called high magic area and low magic area?"
For wizards, changes in the external environment are very important.
The so-called environment can roughly be the atmosphere of a high-magic area, a low-magic area, and finally a non-magic area.
And the cost-effectiveness of these areas is roughly calculated by the activity level of the element particles.
If the element particles in an area are abundant and active enough, then it is a high-magic area, otherwise it is a low-magic area.
And if in an area, the element particles in it are completely extinct, almost disappearing, then it is a completely magic-free area.
Changes in the environment can cause changes in many things.
For wizards, being in a high-magic area can increase the effect of meditation, and the production of some materials and the cultivation of magic plants will be smoother.
And if it is a low-magic area, not only the effect of meditation will be reduced, but also some magic plants that have strict requirements on the environment will not be able to produce.
It sounds similar to the aura of the Azure Realm.
In areas with strong aura, monks can practice much more smoothly, but in areas where aura is cut off, it is a big problem for monks to embark on the road of cultivation, let alone what level they have reached.
From Chen Heng's point of view, the bloodline of the harpies might also be affected by this.
The experience in his previous life told him that the influence of the environment will have a huge impact on life, and a group of life forms suitable for the current environment will also be screened out.
And the more powerful a life is, the higher the requirements for the environment will undoubtedly be.
Half-length banshees may be born as a race that can only fully grow in a high-demon environment.
However, in the low-magic environment, they couldn't fully adapt, and their reproductive power was weak, so their power gradually declined, and they gradually evolved into the Harpies who are weak but able to adapt to the low-magic environment.
It can be explained from this direction.
Thinking of this, Chen Heng shook his head secretly, then turned around, and silently started his actions.
As the Heaven Swallowing Scripture began to function, the crimson blood in his hand gradually began to decrease, turning into pure power, and gradually blending into his body.
A warm current rose from Chen Heng's body and gradually emerged.
Vaguely, Chen Heng's vision gradually changed.
The outside scene gradually changed.
In a trance, he seemed to be transformed into a harpy, and began to experience different lives in this identity.
In the lair, he was born from the mother's womb, and then gradually grew until he was caught and sold into his hands.
The experiences of these scenes, the various memories and emotions in it are extremely clear and extremely violent.
If a person with insufficient willpower is washed away by these residual memories, he probably won't be able to hold on. He is really affected by the remaining spirit and memory of the harpy, and his temperament has changed drastically.
At this time, the benefits of strong mental power are highlighted.
On the spot, Chen Heng shook his head violently, subconsciously stepped back a few steps, and returned to normal.
"This feeling. It's really a bit over the top."
Standing where he was, he felt the feeling just now, and couldn't help shaking his head.
While devouring the external bloodline, Swallowing the Heavenly Scripture will also receive part of the other party's memory, and even part of the bloodline information.
This process is also extremely dangerous.
If one's own will is not strong enough and the spirit is not strong enough, it is easy to be washed away by memory, thus bringing with it some habits and influences of the devoured.
This is also the reason why people who often use the Heaven Swallowing Scripture often experience drastic changes in spirit and eventually become insane.
The origin of other people's blood not only contains the spirit of others, but also contains a lot of memory information.
For others, these things may be their most precious things, but for another person, they are complete impurities.
If there are too many such impurities, it is easy to pollute the spirit and memory, change your temperament, and even mistake yourself for another person.
For the impact of this, Chen Heng has already experienced it deeply during this period of time.
Fortunately, his will is tough enough, his spirit is strong enough, and with the help of the power of the moon god, he can slowly wash away the mental impurities, so it's not bad, and there are no major problems.
Of course, the most important thing is that he was still restrained and didn't force himself to swallow too much.
Often after a devouring, he will not make a second devouring if he does not offset the sequelae of this devouring.
In the past two years, he has only used the Swallowing Heaven Scripture eight times, which can be regarded as very cautious.
"It seems that we can rest for a few months."
After finishing the devouring this time, Chen Heng covered his head and sat silently on the chair beside him.
The memory of the harpy is still in his mind at this moment, forcing many inexplicable impulses to emerge in his heart.
For example, I always think about catching fish, and suddenly want to eat raw meat.
These are all effects.
In the memory of the harpies, there are many bloody scenes.
Eat people alive and mate with all kinds of inexplicable creatures.
If the will is not strong enough, the terrifying scenes may not be unbearable.
Even someone like Chen Heng needs to take a break.
He sat on the wooden chair, just closed his eyes and meditated.
While closing his eyes and meditating, he was also feeling the changes in his body.
"The life energy seems to be much stronger, and the life force has become stronger"
Many thoughts flashed through his mind: "It's just that the body structure seems to have changed again, and it deviates more and more from normal humans."
The impact of devouring other bloodlines is not only mental.
The physical impact is even greater.
This is normal.
After all, the spirit comes from the body. For mortals, except for a very small part, most of what they know, feel, and think comes from the body.
Food, sex, joy, anger, sadness.
Many emotions are closely related to the body.
Before reaching a certain level, the importance of the body is self-evident.
And every time Chen Heng devoured the external blood, he could feel the changes in himself.
It's okay to devour ordinary people, it's just some subtle changes in his body, making him stronger in some places.
It's just that if it devours the blood of other lives, it will cause changes in the body, more or less changing the internal organs and tissues of the body.
Although the current Chen Heng looks like a normal person on the surface, if he is dissected on the test bench, he will find that in many places, he is different from ordinary people, and the tissues and organs in him are more normal than normal. People are too complicated.
But this is not a strange thing.
In fact, not only Chen Heng, but all wizards have this tendency.
The promotion of a wizard is essentially the promotion of the essence of life.
And the improvement of the essence of life is not produced out of thin air, it will more or less change the body, making the weak places stronger and the structure more perfect.
After all, the strengthening of the body cannot happen for no reason. The process of a wizard becoming stronger must be accompanied by the optimization of his own structure.
The more powerful a wizard is, the further away he is from normal people.
According to Chen Heng's estimate, if he is an official wizard, then his body structure may be very different from that of ordinary people, and he can even be divided into two species.
This may also be the reason why it is very difficult for official wizards to have children, and why wizards generally do not regard mortals as the same kind.
Everyone's physical structure is different, and you still want me to treat you as the same kind
Of course, the Cavaliers have similar problems.
Over the years, Chen Heng also got several corpses of knights.
The physiological structure of the knight who has awakened the seed of life is different from that of ordinary people, and there are a lot of differences.
However, this level is not too large, and it has not yet reached the point where it seriously affects reproduction.
Therefore, although it is difficult for knights and ordinary people to have children, it is far less exaggerated than wizards.
No matter what the system is, the later the stage, the greater the gap with mortals.
This must be true not only for wizards and knights in the wizarding world, but also for monks in the Azure world.
Sitting alone on the wooden chair, this thought flashed through Chen Heng's mind, and then he couldn't help feeling a little regretful: "It's a pity that there is no monk's body."
"Otherwise, you can compare the differences between wizards and monks."
This thought flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
I really need to adjust my biological clock.
