Chapter 404 Try
Now is the time for her to complete her mission. She has been waiting in the Golden Monkey Tribe for so many years for this day.
Lang Cang said coldly, "Then I can't just watch you exchange your life for a vague and uncertain inheritance!"
He had tried, but Lang Cang simply couldn't bring himself to watch the monkeys and sparrows die right in front of him.
Monkey Sparrow exerted a little force on her hand, but she had already lost a lot of power and her body had become weak, so she was unable to break free from Wolf Cang's grasp.
She could only glare at him, "Why can't you reason with me, you little brat?"
"Without the inheritance of the Holy Crystal, you simply cannot establish communication with it, and therefore you cannot use the power of the Holy Crystal!"
"I don't need it!" Wolf Cang growled.
The monkey paused, her stiff face softening slightly. She relaxed her tone and said, "Cang, don't be sad, this is my mission."
Lang Cang ignored her, "There must be another way, there must be other ways!"
He gripped the monkey's wrist tightly, preventing her from moving further.
"But Cang, the ceremony is already halfway through. Are we going to give up now? Then all the blood I shed before would have been for nothing!" The monkey kept trying to persuade him to let go of her.
Lang Cang shook his head. "Let me think about it. I'll think about it carefully."
Seeing his appearance, the monkey sighed deeply.
Just then, a flash of inspiration struck Lang Cang, and he suddenly remembered the drop of blood that Lin Baiyan had dripped onto the Holy Crystal in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts when he wanted to find out the origin of Xiao Lynx's identity.
Ordinary orc priests like Fox Fairy and Fox Ice need to use their own blood to nourish the Holy Crystal if they want to utilize its power, but Lin Baiyan doesn't seem to be like that.
The Holy Crystal was as docile as a cat in his presence; a single drop of blood from his fingertip was enough to make it burst forth with endless light.
"Wait, I've got it!" Lang Cang suddenly said.
Hearing his voice, the monkey was taken aback. "What did you think of?"
"I've got it! Something that can replace your blood!"
Monkey Sparrow frowned and remained silent. The Beastman Continent had existed for so many years, and the priests of each generation had used their heart's blood to activate the power of the Holy Crystal. How could Wolf Cang, a beastman who had just come of age, have any other way?
Wolf Cang also saw the doubt in Monkey Sparrow's eyes. He didn't explain, but just looked down at the old sub-beastman in front of him seriously, "Perhaps my method will work. Can you let me try it?"
Seemingly understanding the seriousness in Lang Cang's eyes, Hou Que hesitated for a moment, but still nodded helplessly, "If your method doesn't work, then don't stop me anymore."
The power of the Holy Crystal has begun to gradually fade. If it cannot be fully activated this time, then even more heart and blood will be needed next time.
Lang Cang quickly nodded.
Seeing that the monkey had no intention of cutting open her heart again, he released her wrist.
"Whatever you want to do, start now." After being freed, Monkey Sparrow rubbed her wrist. She hadn't realized this little rascal was so strong. Her old arms and legs had almost been broken by him.
Lang Cang hesitated for a moment, then turned and said, "Could you please go out first?"
The monkeys and sparrows all looked at him suspiciously. Why couldn't he see it? What was all this secrecy about?
However, she didn't pursue the matter further, and simply cooperated by leaning on her cane and leaving the inner room.
After the door closed, only Lang Cang remained in the room. However, he did not completely relax. He reached into his animal skin bag and, using the skin as cover, took out the blood that Lin Baiyan had left with him before leaving.
Fortunately, he took out some more today, otherwise he probably wouldn't have been able to open the Qiankun Bag.
Lang Cang took out the bamboo tube and opened the screw cap inside. A strong smell of blood wafted out. He looked at the blood in the bamboo tube, which smelled just like fresh blood, and a deep heartache flashed in his deep blue eyes.
So much blood! How much pain must Lin Baiyan have felt when he drew it? Just watching Hou Que draw blood today made him feel unbearable.
Thinking of his mate far away in the City of Ten Thousand Beasts, Wolf Cang's eyes softened. He wondered how his wounds were doing. After this trip, he would have Little Peregrine Falcon send a message to the City of Ten Thousand Beasts to try and find a solution.
However, the most important thing now is to see if Lin Baiyan's blood can allow the Holy Crystal to store enough power to be activated.
Lang Cang scooped out a little blood from the bamboo tube, about two or three drops. After scooping it out, he quickly put the lid back on the bamboo tube and put it back into his Qiankun bag. Only by storing it in the Qiankun bag could the blood be kept fresh.
After doing all this, he carefully sprinkled the blood from the spoon onto the Holy Crystal shards.
The moment the blood was splattered, the Holy Crystal fragments in the box suddenly shone brightly, so bright that Lang Cang instinctively closed his eyes.
The light instantly illuminated the entire inner room, and even seemed to continue to burst outwards. The monkey waiting outside the inner room saw the light reflected through the crack in the wooden door. She looked into the inner room with some surprise, and finally hesitated for a moment, circling around twice before entering the inner room.
"What's going on? What was that light just now?" She hadn't even taken two steps forward after pushing open the door when the light blinded her, preventing her from moving any further.
The monkey instinctively closed the door to the inner room.
The light inside the box gradually faded after three or four breaths.
When Lang Cang opened his eyes, he saw that the Holy Crystal fragment was surrounded by very dense blood lines, making the entire Holy Crystal fragment appear abnormally red.
A look of intense surprise flashed in Lang Cang's eyes. It actually worked!
He only added two or three drops of Lin Baiyan's blood, which was nothing compared to the blood that the monkey sparrow had used on the Holy Crystal. But how come this Holy Crystal fragment was so effective?
The monkeys and sparrows at the door sensed the light fading and quickly opened their eyes, heading towards the table.
"What's going on? I could see that light from outside!" Monkey Sparrow quickly walked to his side with his cane, and then caught a glimpse of the ruby-like fragments of holy crystal in the jade box.
The monkey's eyes, which had drooped due to old age, suddenly widened!
