There were hardly any significant figures remaining in the Primordial Sacred Land. Most were royal paragons, who posed no threat to the Ancestora.
However, he still needed to control the Upside Down Formation and receive blood sacrifices from others. Doing so would aid him in delving into the origins of the world, establishing complete dominion over Bleurealm, and becoming its lord.
He casually entrusted the remainder of the Primordial Sacred Land to assist him. As he had articulated, should Fannerly and Ianzik be willing to serve as his loyal followers, he would consider sharing some of the spoils he reaped after becoming Lord of the Realm.
The carrot-and-stick principle was one that the Ancestora understood well.
In the next instant, the law in his grasp condensed and drew in the spiritual essence without a ten-thousand-mile radius. Two red pills were formed as a result, and a divine glow emanated from it, filled with the boundless vitality of the world and the sinister power of blood. Anyone who behld them would feel a sense of ecstasy running in their veins.
"This is a Bloodspirit Pill," said the Ancestora. "Consuming it will make you a half-immortal!" he then pinched the pill between his fingers, allowing the fragments to be swiftly absorbed into his being. His aura seemed to have increased slightly as a result.
Fannerly and Ianzik knew that the Ancestora's actions were both a warning and an invitation. After witnessing the fleeting Bloodspirit Pill and experiencing the intense desire it stirred within them, the two of them knelt before the Ancestora without hesitation. "We pay homage to you! We pledge our loyalty!" they proclaimed.
Their reactions drew a smile from the Ancestora. "Wonderful. You are more sagacious than Xavier was. Serve me well, and I shall reward you accordingly."
Fannerly and Ianzik marshaled their forces and rallied several of the stronger royal paragons. Eventually, they decided to make Thundlight Land their primary target, as it stood weakest among the major powers within Bleurealm. There were only three monsteroid rulers remaining since the fall of the dragonoids.
Low-hanging fruit were usually the safest pickings.
Meanwhile, the Ancestora manipulated a Seven Stars Upside Down Formation deep within the Primordial Sacred Land. Shrouded in billowing black mist, he murmured with a smirk, "Ah, so they're heading to Thundlight. I should hope that they do not disappoint me."
With the setting up of the Seven Stars Upside Down Formation, he could recline at its center and drawing upon the blood and energy from various sources. Its reactivation would allow the Ancestora to seize the power of heaven and earth, peek into the river of time, and search for the origin Bleurealm.
