the blood fruit

Reviewing the lion's memories I saw that one time the lion had the chance to see a blood fruit which is a fruit that absorbs blood and qi for 100 years from the beast and humans to get ripe and in the lion's memories the fruit is almost ripe. From what I got from his memories he wanted to take the fruit because if one eats the fruit one will get the blood essence from a lot of beasts which is extremely helpful for every race out there. But when the lion wanted to snach the fruit it saw an earth drake resting next to it as if it was protecting the fruit so the lion escaped quickly from there.

The earth drake is a beast with 10 percent of dragon blood in it so it's a lot easier for the beast to cultivate and from the looks of it the earth drake that the lion saw is at two claw realm which entails that its two major cultivation levels above me.

Looking through the lion's memories again I looked at how it controls the flame and when I found it I exited the lion's memories and started to plan on how to get the fruit. From what I can tell there's no chance for me to kill it because the earth drake has a strong defence because when they are born they absorb earth essence that makes them grow a sturdy defence from an young age and it only gets stronger the older it is. Which leads me to one solution and that is to get stronger and the fastest way is that I have to hunt beasts and absorb their bloodline for me to upgrade my cultivation.

Having made up a plan I went to an open space in the forest and tried to use my fire ability and what came out was a normal red flame that wasn't really anything special but i knew that's gonna change when i combine it with different flames to power it up.

After playing around with the fire for a while I saw that it had gotten dark so I went back to the cave and sealed the exit so nobody could come in here and went to sleep directly to have as much energy as possible when I hunt tomorrow.

Time skip: two weeks

In a forest filled with beasts you can see a young man with a flaming sword that is battling a bear that had while lighting on its body and the bear's size was 10 times the normal grizzly bear.

The bear was first to attack by swiping it claws at the young man but the young man has already expected that so he quickly doges and summons a purple flame which turn into a fire serpent which attacked the bear but it did no damage whatsoever, well that's until one noticed the black dots that starting to appear around the bears body until it filled his whole body which made the bear collapse and die.

The young man is no other than Lucifer himself and after two weeks of cultivation and fighting with a beast he has upgraded his cultivation to peak three winged demon( from now on the cultivation will be divided by three levels initial, middle and peak.

Even if the earth drake has a stronger cultivation Lucifer is sure that he has the capabilities to win against it especially when he has combined a beast flame with his own. When Lucifer was in the forest hunting he saw a serpent that was the same level as him which he first did not want to fight but the serpent noticed him and became aggressive and attacked him so he had no choice to retaliate and in the end he won but not without some injuries but the positives were more than the negative because when he absorbed the serpents blood, he came to know that the beast has a flame that has poison properties which he combined with his normal flame to make the flame he has now that oddly enough has taken the form of a serpent.

Going the same route as the lion had in his memories which led him to a cave that he sneakely enterd and slowly without not noticing started to move forward to see where fruit was. After moving forward for a little time I started to smell an alluring smell that intoxicated oneself but before that could happen Lucifer suprest it and came out from the illusion.

Looking around trying to find who did it he saw a deep red colored fruit that resembles an apple hanging from a little tree and right beside the tree is an earth drake that is guarding the fruit.

Looking at the Earth Drake I was surprised because even if I saw it in the lion's memories seeing it firsthand is another experience. The earth drake was 5 meters tall and 10 meters long beast and taking a closer look on could see a lot of scars on its body presumably from a fight but now that i think about it what could possibly hurt the beast because we're right now in the outskirt of the forest where the earth drake should be the strongest beast here.

When i was thinking who could have possibly hurt it i saw the beast opening its eyes and looking around and it passed though me without noticing me well at least that's what i think because it didn't attack.

Just as i was about to prepare myself to fight it i saw earth spikes coming from the ground attacking me which i had to quickly dodge and looking in front of me i see the earth drake had a little smirk which made me realize he had seen me it's just that he wanted to catch me off guard which he did but thanks god my reaction time was faster and saved me.

Getting pissed that i was being played by a beast i shot several fire serpents at him but when they hit him they did no damage because they couldn't go through his defence. Seeing that my ranged attack is not working i had no choice but to engage in close combat and i had to be careful because even if the strongest point of the drake is defence but its strength isn't something to scoff at either.

Taking out my claws I engaged in a close combat fight with him that had me dogging left and right not to get hit because I know that a couple of hits and I'm down so I was extra careful.

Punching him in the face with fire coating my hand I saw a wound on his right side that looks pretty messed up. Looking at the wound I became excited because I would have won if my flames had gotten in his system because the earth drake has no resistance to poison but his defence is too strong for me to break but now is a golden opportunity.

Trying to fire at the wound i saw that he is defending that place and having almost all of his focus on his wound so me being able attack him there is not going to work so i had to come up with something and that's when it hit me so i quickly summon a flame and attacked the fruit which the earth drake saw and quickly without thinking straight defended it which made him give me an opening to strike his wound which i did and before you know it he was laying on the ground dead. Coming closer and finally seeing the earth drake dead i breathed a sigh of relief and became excited to see what will happen after eating the blood fruit so i quickly went to it and took it from the tree and hit myself behind a rock and ate all of it.
