Ye Qiu remained still, and so did the vampire.
After a few seconds of standoff, the vampire, seeing that Ye Qiu no longer eyed its red fruit, retreated to the fruit’s side, prepared to guard it and prevent Ye Qiu from picking it.
Ye Qiu suddenly found the vampire rather interesting and had no intention of grabbing that red fruit.
The fruit borne by vegetation growing around blood pools, indeed, if Ye Qiu were to eat it, it would truly disgust him.
"I won’t take it, don’t worry." Regardless of whether the vampire could understand, Ye Qiu left these words, then sat cross-legged at a spot and began practicing his cultivation.
The vampire’s eyes glead with curiosity, though its vigilance didn’t fade, Ye Qiu’s cultivation piqued its interest.
Taking out an extrely high-quality Crystal Stone, Ye Qiu swiftly absorbed and refined it, transforming it into his own energy. He did not regard the vampire before him as a threat; with his strength at the Human King boundary, he could tell it posed no real danger to him.
Thus, Ye Qiu didn’t bother with it. As long as it didn’t actively bother him, he wouldn’t take the initiative to kill it.
The vampire, seeing Ye Qiu using the Crystal Stone to cultivate, was very curious, unable to resist moving away from the red fruit’s position and approaching Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu suddenly opened his eyes, sensing the vampire’s approach. Seeing Ye Qiu noticed it, the vampire, startled, quickly retreated.
Yet, it still glanced longingly at the Crystal Stone in front of Ye Qiu, feeling it was a good thing.
Ye Qiu grinned, casually picked up a piece, and tossed it over.
The vampire initially thought Ye Qiu was going to attack it, but seeing the Crystal Stone thrown over, it leaped up instantly, catching the Crystal Stone in mid-air.
In its hands, it looked at it in amazent, feeling very novel.
Then, emulating Ye Qiu, it began to absorb energy from the Crystal Stone.
"Hmm?"
Upon seeing the slightly foolish vampire absorbing energy from the Crystal Stone and its body suddenly transforming, Ye Qiu was astounded.
The vampire’s body rapidly shot up, becoming more robust, clearly a substantial increase in its strength.
Happy with its transformation, the vampire looked at Ye Qiu, its gaze no longer filled with wariness, but rather a sense of closeness.
After absorbing all the energy from the Crystal Stone, the vampire tried several tis more until it truly couldn’t further its growth before reluctantly discarding the Crystal Stone.
The vampire, its power greatly increased, was incredibly excited, even dancing around by the blood pool like a child.
Ye Qiu was sowhat speechless, sighing inwardly that this was truly a not-so-bright vampire.
However, the vampire’s next action made Ye Qiu change his mind because it actually plucked the red fruit and brought it to Ye Qiu, seemingly offering it to him.
Ye Qiu hesitated for a mont, extended his palm, and the vampire placed a red fruit on his hand, then stood obediently, seeming to want more Crystal Stones.
Ye Qiu chuckled helplessly and tossed it another high-quality Crystal Stone, this ti the vampire didn’t imdiately absorb it but cautiously stored it away.
Then it clasped its hands together in a gesture of thanks to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu’s eyes flickered; this vampire’s intelligence wasn’t low, knowing how to barter.
In the following days, the old man Ye Qiu was worried about did not appear, and he beca more familiar with the vampire.
Communicating with it through spiritual power, Ye Qiu discovered that this vampire currently had the intelligence of a child around five or six years old, no wonder its behavior was sotis childish.
"I didn’t expect to encounter a newly intelligent vampire," Ye Qiu remarked with a smile.
Regarding the vampire’s origins, Ye Qiu speculated it might not have been buried in the soil, but rather in a blood pool, which led to a mutation and the ergence of new spiritual sense.
Strictly speaking, it was already a new life, with a consciousness entirely different from its past body.
Ye Qiu was curious about what this vampire experienced in its past life. These days, the vampire, through absorbing Crystal Stones, not only grew in strength but also rapidly gained intelligence.
It even began to speak, further solidifying Ye Qiu’s resolve to help it continue growing, no matter how many Crystal Stones it cost.
Perhaps the vampire would recover its past life mories, and Ye Qiu could learn about the things he wanted to know.
In just five short days, the vampire’s strength surged from the Mythical boundary to the Human King boundary. This progress rate amazed even Ye Qiu, making him consider whether he too should beco a vampire to avoid the tediousness of breakthroughs.
The vampire could now communicate normally with Ye Qiu; if not for its fangs and claws, it would look just like an ordinary person, except for its overly pale skin.
Ye Qiu gave the vampire a na: Cain.
Ye Qiu didn’t know much about vampires, only that they were a special species surviving by drinking blood. He rembered the ancestor of vampires was Cain, and naming it that had no particular motive, just to mock that Western god a little.
If not for him, I wouldn’t have ended up on the moon.
If God knew that Ye Qiu had created a Cain, he’d probably be very angry, considering Cain was supposed to be his creation.
"Master, is your enemy also here? Let kill him for you," Cain said, licking his lips, eager to taste the flavor of blood.
Ye Qiu shook his head: "You are no match for him; that old fellow is very powerful."
Cain’s intelligence had grown to an adult’s level, thanks to Ye Qiu. To aid Cain’s growth, Ye Qiu almost exhausted all his top-quality Crystal Stones; otherwise, how could Cain have grown so quickly?
Thus, in Cain’s heart, Ye Qiu was most revered.
"It’s been so many days; he might soon track us here. Before he arrives, it’s best to find a way to deal with him. You continue cultivating; I’ll call you if anything cos up," Ye Qiu said.
Cain nodded, then jumped into the blood pool, continuing to absorb its power to enhance his strength.
Ye Qiu took out the Death Horn again; Cain did not recognize it, only staring at its sharp part with so fear.
Now, to deal with that old man, afraid the only way was through this thing.
He needed to research how to use the Death Horn.
Next, Ye Qiu used every thod to try and discover sothing without sounding it.
Ti flew by as Ye Qiu imrsed himself in his research.
A figure had already appeared at the front of this cetery.
The visitor was precisely the old man attempting to steal Ye Qiu’s Qiankun Bag and the Death Horn.
Gazing over the scattered mounds and tombs,
the old man furrowed his brow, murmuring to himself, "Is he here?"
