After he moved so distance, he transford into shadowstalker, and the surroundings blurred as he sped towards the jungle, jumping from branch to branch. After half an hour, he spotted a nice clearing with moonberries growing in it. He jumped down, then transford back into his human form, took out the Bud of the Sanguine Thorn, and poured so blood over it.
He laid the Bud on the ground, then transford into glowhorn and carefully tried to position the Bud around where his heart should be without crushing it. Given how his body felt, he probably had more than one heart, but the position seed good enough.
Imdiately after the Bud touched his body, it entered, and, oh boy, did it hurt. After a short period of ti, while Thalion was rolling on the ground in his glowhorn form, the pain disappeared as if it had never been there in the first place. Then a rush of pure power surged through his veins, and he felt a connection between him and the Bud establish itself.
He also gained two skills: Crimson Harvest and Blood Thorn. He instantly tried out Blood Thorn, shooting a thorn at the tree next to him. The half ter long thorn almost fully penetrated the nine-ter-wide tree, with the pointy end erging from the other side. The power in that skill was crazy, but it made sense both were epic skills, even stronger than his Mana Blade.
He then allowed the Bud to feed on his blood. It didn’t hurt that badly, and he was almost not losing any life since he was constantly regenerating with his passive ability. With that, he did what he liked most as glowhorn, munching on berries. He was also lucky that he didn’t encounter any other survivors. These moonberries were of high level, with the lowest at level 19 and the highest at level 23.
He spent the rest of the day eating and feeding the Bud. As it happened, the Bud evolved, which for him ant more pain. It must have already been close to evolving due to the vampire feeding it over the days. After another round of rolling on the ground with his eyes rolled back in his head, it was over. Then power rushed through his body; the power-up he got from bonding with the Bud was nothing compared to this. He even got a new spell:
Vine of the Sanguine Thorn (Legendary): The spell conjures a crimson vine, writhing with wicked, black-tipped thorns. It burrows into the victim, draining their life force, mana, and stamina. Each thorn delivers a venomous sting, causing excruciating pain and weakening the target. Moreover, the vine completely prevents healing while in contact with the victim.
A legendary spell, and it was massive. Holy shit, it drained health, mana, and stamina, that was just too good to be true. Then it even fully prevents healing while in contact. That spell was not normal. His other blood spell had also evolved. Blood Thorn now completely blocked healing while in contact with the target and the race of the Glowhorn was no longer an epic race but a legendary one.
At first, he planned to hunt at night as a Shadowstalker, but for now, he wanted to strengthen the thorn, so he kept eating berries while feeding it his blood.
