"Why did it turn out like this?!"
Looking at the drastically changed True Martial Incarnation Origin Embryo and the phantom tree above it, Wang Ba could not hide his astonishment.
The True Martial Dao was founded on blood and naturally attracted blood Qi. He knew that very well.
But the True Martial Incarnation Origin Embryo had always been neither dead nor alive. Even after being supplied with vast quantities of spirit beast blood Qi, it had never shown any improvement.
Thus, although he still harbored a sliver of hope for a turning point, he had long since stopped expecting much. He simply had never had the time to attend to it.
Yet he had never imagined that encountering Immortal Blood would now bring about such a tremendous change.
"Could it be... the blood Qi I supplied before was too low in level to truly nurture a True Martial Incarnation?"
This conjecture involuntarily flashed through Wang Ba's mind.
Nor was it a baseless guess. The Undying Divine Tree was an extraordinarily wondrous sixth-tier spirit plant, while the blood Qi normally supplied to it came, at most, from early-stage fifth-tier spirit beasts. That was barely enough to sustain the Undying Divine Tree, but insufficient to bring about a fundamental transformation and complete Wang Ba's True Martial Body.
Yet the Immortal Blood that the Double Pupils Daoist had introduced into the realm to contaminate its living beings had, through a strange twist of fate, instead become the opportunity for the True Martial Incarnation Origin Embryo to complete its final transformation.
No, it was more than a transformation.
Wang Ba glanced at the phantom tree behind the Origin Embryo. Compared to the former "Changyang Divine Mountain," the impression this phantom tree gave him had clearly risen by an entire level.
That was only natural.
