Chapter 841: Harmony Vessel
Although the blood fusion aspect was also covered in the Everlasting Blood Mantra, its effects were limited.
Thus, even though the Divine Blood Refining Art was far inferior to the Everlasting Blood Mantra, it still had its strength due to the difference in their specialties; it had strong blood fusion effects, albeit with some limitations of its own.
The Everlasting Blood Mantra focused on accumulation, which took time and was limited by the readily available and accessible origin blood.
On the other hand, the Divine Blood Refining Art focused on sheer power growth. As long as there was high-quality blood power to extract and absorb, the blood art would grow rapidly.
Of course, as an inferior blood art, the Divine Blood Refining Art had a clear disadvantage. The user\'s mind would be eroded by the malice, resentment, and other negativity of the remnant wills within the blood they absorb.
It was also due to this disadvantage that the Divine Blood Refining Art was considered an evil art.
After all, not only did it require the blood of other living beings to strengthen its user, but its user would also eventually turn into a demonic being with prolonged usage.
However, this disadvantage did not exist for Vaan.
With his Nihility Law, he could erase the remnant wills within the blood and turn it into pure blood power. As such, there wouldn\'t be any malice and resentment of the dead plaguing him.
Furthermore, pure blood power would even produce better results.
Essentially, this Divine-rank blood art would be upgraded to a blood art of an entirely higher rank in Vaan\'s hands.
Nevertheless, the Divine Blood Refining Art still had another limitation.
If Vaan used it to absorb Abaddon\'s vampiric blood, his Divine Blood Refining Art would be limited to the fusion of vampiric blood. The blood of other beings would conflict with the vampiric bloodline.
\'The Divine Blood Refining Art is indeed great for rapid growth. However, it is too restrictive in its choice for blood fusion. On the other hand, the Everlasting Blood Mantra is extremely slow, but it can fuse any origin blood...\'
\'If I can take the strengths of each technique and combine them, I might be able to create a superior technique without any of the knowing disadvantages...\' Vaan thought.
Nevertheless, it was easier said than done.
After all, the Everlasting Blood Mantra was a blood technique that came from the Mysterious Primeval Secret Realm, which was assumed to be from the Primal Chaos Era.
Undoubtedly, it was a blood technique created by some primordial god or devil. To most beings, it would already be considered a perfected technique.
Thus, to make a perfect technique reach a higher level of perfection would be a nonsensical idea to them.
However, Vaan didn\'t believe in the impossible.
So what if it was a technique created by the primordial gods or devils? He used to be an existence that even surpassed them in his past life.
Even if he had yet to recover all his memories, he still possessed vast amounts of fragmented knowledge that could even humble the gods and devils of that bygone era.
\'The Everlasting Blood Mantra and Divine Blood Refining Art will be reborn by my hands,\' Vaan decided.
Shortly after, his mind began running simulations to combine the two techniques.

<You have combined the Everlasting Blood Mantra and Divine Blood Refining Art and created a flawed nameless blood art>

<You have combined the Everlasting Blood Mantra and Divine Blood Refining Art and created
a flawed nameless blood art>
<Note: This flawed nameless blood art has nine conflicting points in its blood circulation
pathways>
<Note 2: Cultivating this flawed nameless blood art long term will cause permanent deformations in your meridians and blood vessels>
Vaan ran countless virtual simulations in his mind. However, he was unable to overcome the last nine points of conflict in the new blood circulation path.
This imposed limit of nine points of conflict was based on his body\'s existing meridians and blood vessels. In other words, he couldn\'t reduce the conflicting circulation points anymore, no matter how many more simulations he ran in his mind.
However, since he knew the problem, it was easy to find the solution.
Since the limit was imposed on his current body, he only needed to alter his meridians and blood vessels by forging new ones to address the nine points of circulation conflicts.
After running his mental simulations, Vaan concluded that he only needed an extra vessel to erase the nine circulation conflict points completely. Given his present abilities and the system, he was fully capable of carrying out the vessel forging.
The typical human body had twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary vessels. But soon, he will have a ninth extraordinary vessel.
Ding!
<You have mapped out the position and form for the ninth extraordinary vessel>
<Note: The ninth extraordinary vessel will eliminate the remaining nine circulation conflict points in the nameless blood art>
...
Ding!
<You have optimized the ninth extraordinary vessel>
<The optimized ninth extraordinary vessel is expected to provide improved blood circulation, aura control, mana flow, stamina recovery, and purify blood quality, extending your lifespan

...
Vaan wasn\'t satisfied with forging the ninth extraordinary vessel just for the sake of his nameless blood art alone. The ninth extraordinary vessel had to be able to function as if it had always been an essential part of the body.
Humans were born imperfect. That was why they could pursue perfection; there was room for improvement. The ninth extraordinary vessel was just one such improvement.
He was told that the human body possessed the greatest potential in Chaos. However, he had
a different opinion - Humanity\'s greatest potential didn\'t lie in their body but in their
intelligence.
It was because of human intelligence that humans were able to develop knowledge to improve their imperfect bodies.
The reason denizens of Chaos believed the human body contained the greatest potential wasn\'t because it was true; it had the greatest potential because it had been the most
explored.
Humans owed their glory to the human ancestors who preceded them.
It was the human ancestors who had toiled hard with blood, sweat, and tears in order to leave
behind their knowledge for the future generations of humanity.
That was why humans could become one of the ruling races of Chaos.
\'I\'ll call this ninth extraordinary vessel the Harmony Vessel.\'
Shortly after deciding on the name, Vaan immediately commenced the vessel forging. He guided his regenerating blood outside of its usual routes, turning them into the walls of the
new extraordinary vessel.
Ding!
<The Harmony Vessel is being forged>
<Your blood power is being consumed>
<Your soul force is being consumed>
<Your divine energy is being consumed> <Your pure mana is being consumed>
<Your dragon aura is being consumed>
...
Ding!
<The Harmony Vessel has been successfully forged>
<No issues in the Harmony Vessel have been detected>
<Your blood circulation, aura control, mana flow, and stamina recovery are improving>
<Your Harmony Vessel has begun purifying micro-toxins in your bloodstream>
<The self-created nameless blood art can be cultivated without any detrimental effects>
...
Even without the system informing him, Vaan could feel all the changes in his body. It was just as he expected.
Even the air he breathed in felt more refreshing and empowering. Nevertheless, Vaan still wasn\'t ready to cultivate his self-created nameless blood art. His Harmony Vessel had just been forged; it wasn\'t prepared to endure such an intense burden
from cultivation.
Ding!
<You have consumed the Divine-rank Stalactite Milk>
<You have begun immolating your Harmony Vessel>
<Your Harmony Vessel is undergoing a process of destruction and recreation>
...
Ding!
<You have tempered your Harmony Vessel>
<You have tempered your Harmony Vessel>
<You have tempered your Harmony Vessel>
--
...
<Your Harmony Vessel has been tempered to the Transcendent rank>
-
In the blink of an eye, six hours passed before the Harmony Vessel could reach a satisfactory level of tempering.
Finally, with all but one of the necessary steps taken, Vaan was almost ready to cultivate the
nameless blood art he had created by perfectly merging the Everlasting Blood Mantra and Divine Blood Refining Art.
Of course, the last preparation was to remove the remnant will hidden with Abaddon\'s left
arm.
Inside the isolated subspace, Vaan effortlessly erased all of Abaddon\'s remnant will with the Nihility Law in a few dozen breaths. Compared to turning matter into primal energy, snuffing out the last wisps of Abaddon\'s will was much easier.
\'At last, I have finished creating the optimum condition to absorb Abaddon\'s divine blood.
It\'s time to see how effective this self-created blood art truly is,\' Vaan thought.
After all the troubles he had to go through to reach this step, he naturally developed a sense of
anticipation.
Who wouldn\'t look forward to enjoying the fruits of their labor?
