Chapter 53: Sacred-blood Copper-toothed Beast
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After wrapping up the dead body of the purple-winged dragon, everyone returned to Steel Armor Sanctuary and Qin Xuan called Han Sen into her office.
“Did you get the beast soul?” Qin Xuan stared at Han Sen.
“Stationmaster, I really did not get the beast soul. Had I known this I would never have shot the arrow,” said Han Sen wryly.
Qin Xuan didn’t believe him, “Stop acting. If you have gained the beast soul, I will not take advantage you either. If you want to sell it, I’m willing to pay. I can even pay you up front.”
“Stationmaster, I’d be a fool if I don’t want to earn the money. I really did not get the beast soul. If I could show you I would,” Han Sen looked depressed.
Qin Xuan felt Han Sen’s emotions were authentic. She frowned and said to him, “Forget about it then. Do not go anywhere alone and stay in Bullseye these days. Son of Heaven might try to kill you.”
“I will behave,” Han Sen nodded.
Back to Bullseye, Su Xiaoqiao put his arm around Han Sen’s neck and asked, “Sen, I heard that you made the last attack. Did you get the beast soul?”
“I wish, but unfortunately I don’t even own a primitive beast soul, let alone a sacred-blood one,” Han Sen shrugged and said.
“Right… Beast souls are very hard to come by. We can’t all be as lucky as Dollar,” Su Xiaoqiao sighed and said. He did not have too much doubt. After all, the probability of gaining a beast soul was too low.
“Recently you must be careful not to leave the shelter. Although you did not get the beast soul, Son of Heaven wouldn’t let you off the hook easily,” said Su Xiaoqiao.

“I know.” Han Sen patted Su Xiaoqiao on the shoulder, thinking, “He seems a nice guy.”
Back in his room, Han Sen could not help but smiled and started to review his new beast soul.
Type of sacred-blood purple-winged dragon’s beast soul: Flying.
The introduction was brief, but reminded Han Sen of so much he had heard about this type of beast soul. A flying beast soul meant the beast soul could turn into wings that could give its owner the ability to fly like a bird.
Flying across the sky without the need for tools such as aircrafts was certainly a dream coming true. The most important part was that with the ability to fly, one’s survival would become so much easier in God’s Sanctuary. A flying beast soul also allowed one to go where ordinary people couldn’t reach.
Flying beast souls were super expensive, even more so than the shapeshifting beast soul of the same level. Also, flying beast souls were so rare in God’s Sanctuary that you might not even be able to buy one even if you had the money.
“Amazing! A sacred-blood flying beast soul. I wonder how many of these exist in the entire First God’s Sanctuary,” Han Sen was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Primitive flying beast souls had a low speed and didn’t allow the users to go very high. It could only bring people ten feet above the ground.
Mutant flying beast souls were better but still slow and clumsy. Sacred-blood flying beast souls were much better than the others. But Han Sen had never seen even mutant flying beast souls in Steel Armor Sanctuary.
Of course, this had something to do with the fact that there were less flying creatures near Steel Armor Shelter.
The room was too small for Han Sen to summon the wings. When he calmed down from excitement, his eye fell on the copper-toothed beast that had turned completely purple and shiny as if it had been polished.

“Sacred-blood… The copper-toothed beast has evolved into a sacred-blood creature…” Han Sen was filled with unspeakable joy, staring at the beast.
For three months, Han Sen had been anxious about the result, but now he knew it for sure: Every three months, he could have a creature evolved into a sacred-blood creature. If the words got out, everyone would go crazy.
Like today, it was so hard for such a huge group of people to hunt a purple-winged dragon. And after it was killed, every member in the group would share its meat. Son of Heaven’s gang would have a bigger share, and Qin Xuan’s gang would have the rest. After everyone got their own part, how many geno points can a small part of the entire body offer?
Hunting that cost a lot of resources and effort like this one would happen at most once per month, and the success rate would be at most 50 percent. Yet Han Sen could have the meat of an entire sacred-blood creature all to himself every three months.
Son of Heaven and Qin Xuan were both several years older than Han Sen, but they still hadn’t evolved to enter Second God’s Santuary, which meant maxing out on sacred geno points took a lot of time and effort.
Behind Son of Heaven was Starry Group, and behind Qin Xuan was the military. Even they were not able to max out on sacred geno points within 10 years. It might take them 15 years or even longer if they had bad luck.
Now with the black crystal, Han Sen only needed at most five years to evolve with max sacred geno points.
Han Sen’s first reaction was not to kill the copper-toothed beast and eat its meat, but to go to the square to buy a living primitive creature.
He did not want to waste any time before he started to feed the next sacred-blood creature. Also, he didn’t dare to go out hunting, fearing Son of Heaven’s revenge.
Taking the primitive creature he had bought back to his room, Han Sen didn’t hesitate before he killed the sacred-blood copper-toothed beast. It was far less strong than a wild sacred-blood creature and was easily slaughtered.
“Sacred-blood copper-toothed beast killed. No beast soul gained. Eat its meat to gain one to ten sacred geno points randomly.”
Although there was no beast soul gained, Han Sen was still over the moon. He quickly set up a pot and was ready to make a stew.

8 1278Candor: The Forgotten House
*** Please read note below *** As a 16-year-old mage from a powerful family, Jayce Candor had known from a young age what his future would hold. As the fourth son in his family the possibility of him becoming the heir to the household was very small. But, with his talent as a mage, his potential accomplishments in the military could lead to titles of nobility and political power. However, on what would otherwise be an unremarkable night, everything he had ever known, the only people he ever cared for, and all of the plans for his future were destroyed. House Candor, one of the six great houses that helped build the Eldoran Empire had been erased from history. By imperial decree, all those bearing the name Candor were hunted down and executed as traitors of the Empire. With no home, no family, and only death waiting for him, Jayce decided to escape north to the uncharted Northern Territories to begin a new life. Forced into situations he was never prepared for and trying to cope with his past, Jayce tries to find safety in a place spoken about only in legends. There for the first time, he will make true friends and find people he will come to see as family. He will encounter strong enemies, build powerful alliances, and become a person his ancestors would be proud of. But surrounded by creatures he thought only existed in tales and pressed by the Empire’s constant expansion, Jayce’s safety may be only an illusion. To survive a world fraught with danger Jayce will need to grow stronger with each new experience and rebuild his once forgotten house. ********************************************************************** Note: The story starts slow. Although there is more action as the story progresses, there is a fair amount of introspection and character introduction in the first 30 chapters. Jayce is the main character, however, other characters play a large role and the story is seen through multiple POV's. This is a draft, it is not a finished work. This is not a story that focuses on an OP MC who beats up on weaklings. At times there can be a fair amount of internal monologue. Some of that may be edited out when I rewrite the story. I decided to keep it in the draft because I think it is better to have too much material rather than too little when I edit. Constructive criticism is appreciated as it helps in the editing and rewriting process. Check out my other story Shattered Mind here
