Mu Jinyu pushed aside the onlookers, walked over to Elder Ji, squatted down beside him, and then softly said, "Grandpa Ji, it might hurt a bit later, please bear with it..."

Mu Jinyu was quite grateful to this old man who found him outside and brought him back to the village for treatment.

If he hadn't brought him back to the village, during those ten or so days when he was unconscious after having his Divine Dragon Blood extracted, he might have been eaten by a passing Ferocious Beast.

Then now, he wouldn't exist.

"Mm, go ahead... If Old Lin can endure it, there's no reason I can't!"

Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, Elder Ji forced a smile, his face pale, and weakly replied.

Mu Jinyu returned the smile, then began working with the herbs, applied them to Elder Ji, and attempted to use Blood Essence to accelerate the healing of his injuries.

But then, Mu Jinyu noticed that his Blood Essence didn't seem as effective on Elder Ji as on the Old Village Chief?

Very strange!

Then Mu Jinyu guessed that maybe it was because the Old Village Chief had cultivated the "Blood Tempering Method" so his Blood Essence was more effective on him?

Not very certain, Mu Jinyu thought he would try using Blood Essence to heal the others later. If it was similarly unstable, then it should be the reason?

Then, Mu Jinyu took a bit longer than with the Old Village Chief but eventually managed to heal Elder Ji's new and old injuries.

Then, Mu Jinyu went to try healing other people, and finally, he found that his Blood Essence was indeed variably effective on different people.

Not as consistently effective as Life Source Energy.

Mu Jinyu directly asked them if they cultivated the "Blood Tempering Method"?

But the answer he got was that they all practiced the "Blood Tempering Method" because, unlike Li Hu, they didn't have a decent Foreign Race Bloodline, only scattered, weak bloodlines. To strengthen themselves, they also embarked on the Human Path Cultivation Method like the Old Village Chief.

Hearing this, Mu Jinyu fell into contemplation...

Since they all cultivated the "Blood Tempering Method," there was no reason for such a discrepancy in effect.

If it's because the Old Village Chief cultivated a complete version of the "Blood Tempering Method" that the effect is stronger, then why do others who cultivated an incomplete version of the "Blood Tempering Method" also experience a significant drop in effectiveness?

Ultimately, Mu Jinyu had a guess.

Maybe it's because their Foreign Race Bloodlines within them are mixed to varying degrees?

Then Mu Jinyu inquired about the types of Foreign Race Bloodlines in their bodies, and after getting the response, Mu Jinyu finally confirmed that the reason his Blood Essence was more effective on some was their Foreign Race Bloodlines were not only thin but also fewer in variety!

Although not Pureblooded Humans, they were very close to being Pureblooded Humans!

In short, the more mixed their Foreign Race Bloodlines, the less effective his Blood Essence was on them.

The closer they were to Pureblooded Humans, the more effective his Blood Essence!

No wonder, no wonder the Old Village Chief, who also cultivated the complete version of the "Blood Tempering Method," didn't discover that his Blood Essence could heal himself; probably because he isn't a Pureblooded Human?

So, if that's the case, the Blood Essence generated from the "Blood Tempering Method" indeed isn't as effective as Life Source Energy and likely only targets the Human Race, with little effect on other species.

Unable to heal the Divine Race's Xilin like Life Source Energy could!

But it's okay, as long it can heal humans!

After saving these elders who risked their lives to hold off the Beast Tide, Mu Jinyu wanted to say something more.

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle..."

His stomach grumbled again.

"Still hungry, aren't you? Come on, we still have quite a few whole Ferocious Beast bodies here on the ground; let's bring them back to the village for barbeque! Cooked food replenishes Qi-Blood more effectively than raw food!"

The Old Village Chief laughed upon hearing the thunderous rumblings from Mu Jinyu's stomach, then suggested.

"Is that so? All right then!"

Mu Jinyu didn't know all that, but he indeed preferred cooked food himself. However, he was way too hungry just now, starving until his stomach was touching his back, and had no patience to make cooked food, so he just devoured raw food.

Soon, the villagers carried the scattered Ferocious Beast corpses back to the village.

Then, everyone began to barbeque.

Among them, some of the Ferocious Beasts were quite strong, and when skinned, their flesh revealed a lustrous sheen, glowing and tender. Even before being fully cooked, an irresistible aroma of meat wafted through the air.

"This must be a Ferocious Beast with Demon Race blood mixed in, quite rare indeed..."

"Yeah, with meat like this, let's not just barbeque it; let's make a stew so everyone can have some!"

"Sure, I'll fetch some well water, be right back; just hold off on the barbequing for a bit..."

"..."

The villagers of Xiaolin Village were busy skinning and deboning the Ferocious Beasts, classifying meats for the best culinary method.

However, Mu Jinyu didn't have time for that; he was utterly famished, so he started barbequing for himself first, and once cooked to about seventy to eighty percent, he devoured it in big bites.

Juices flowed down his mouth, and a rosy glow emitted from his face; his whole body surged with Qi-Blood, impressively catching the villagers' attention.

Then, some could no longer hold back and asked, "Hey, Jinyu, what did you find in that cavern exactly? How did it drive so many Ferocious Beasts crazy?"

"Yes, exactly what was it? If it's something good, show us!"

"The Village Chief and Grandpa Ji risked their lives to save you; Jinyu, you wouldn't think of keeping it all to yourself, would you?"

"..."

With these questions coming up, the atmosphere suddenly stiffened.

Mu Jinyu, feeling under siege, was naturally affected; his eating slowed as he put down the almost-finished Big Bone Stick in his hand and looked at those speaking, and calmly said, "I don't know what it was either; it looked kind of like Lingzhi, entirely crimson. After I ate it, my whole body's Qi-Blood was nearly exhausted, and I only recovered after eating those meats outside!"

"What?!"

"Blood Ganoderma?!"

"My god, that's not how you eat it, yet you just devoured it like that?! You prodigal!"

"Squanderer, squanderer!"

"You, a Pureblooded Human, eating Blood Ganoderma, what a waste!!"

"Yes, if I had eaten it, it could've just stimulated my Dragon-Elephant Bloodline, making me a top-grade genius!"

The villagers, who had been challenging Mu Jinyu, were frustrated to learn that he wasted such a rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, pounding their chests in regret, full of annoyance.

The so-called Blood Ganoderma is indeed a very rare Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, enhancing the concentration of Bloodline Power upon consumption.

Blood Ganoderma is effective not only on the Human Race but across the Ten Thousand Clans in the Canglan Realm; even Ferocious Beasts evolve into Demon Beasts with a chance after eating it, which naturally caused their frenzy!

Upon learning that such a precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures was wasted by Mu Jinyu, a Pureblooded Human, how could they not be angry to the point of vomiting blood?

Some almost felt like swallowing him whole before the medicinal effects of the Blood Ganoderma completely digested!
