Keqing looked at the crimson fruits, each about the size of an egg.
She turned to Su Han and asked, "How are these Blood Bodhi supposed to be used?"
Since they could increase one's power, they naturally couldn't be wasted.
With so many fruits, there were definitely enough for everyone to have a few.
"You can just eat them directly. As I recall, for the power-enhancing effect, you can eat two at most!"
Hearing Su Han's words, Keqing's eyes lit up. She picked up a fruit and popped it into her mouth.
"Mm, this fruit is so hot."
As the Blood Bodhi went down, she felt a fire burning in her stomach. A strange power began to surge through all the meridians in her body.
Gradually, Keqing's furrowed brow relaxed. The elemental energy within her was incredibly active.
Five minutes later, she opened her eyes and looked down at her body with a shocked expression.
Her power had increased by a great deal.
Although ten years of power was but a snap of the fingers for a god, for a human, it was incredibly precious.
Ten years of power had increased Keqing's own strength by a full thirty percent!
"So strong! This Blood Bodhi is truly a fine treasure. My strength has actually increased by thirty percent!"
"What? Thirty percent? That much?" Ningguang was taken aback.
The strength of the Yuheng was already at the very peak for a human.
Yet, it had increased by another thirty percent.
No wonder the Points Shop sold them for twenty thousand points a piece. They were definitely worth the price.
Subsequently, Keqing consumed a second Blood Bodhi. This time, the increase was not as great, only about one-fifth of her previous strength.
Even so, she was extremely excited. If she had to rely on arduous training, who knows how long it would have taken to reach this step.
After her, the others also began to consume the Blood Bodhi.
Among them, Xiangling and Hu Tao saw the greatest increase in strength, by almost seventy percent!
Ganyu's was the lowest, not even reaching ten percent.
Mona asked with confusion, "Why is the difference so large? Is it because of their base strength? That shouldn't be right."
Su Han looked at Zhongli. The latter thought for a moment and analyzed the root of the issue.
"The base strength is part of it, but I believe the most crucial factor is elemental affinity. Director Hu and Xiangling both have Pyro Visions, and that Fire Qilin was also of the fire attribute. According to Su Han's explanation, the Blood Bodhi are nourished by the blood of the Fire Qilin, which means the blood itself must contain the power of the fire element. As for Ganyu, she herself has the bloodline of a Qilin, and her element conflicts with it. Adding to that her already immense strength, it is understandable that she did not see much of an increase."
Hearing Zhongli's analysis, everyone nodded in agreement. It was logical and well-reasoned, truly convincing.
Su Han picked up a Blood Bodhi, wondering how much his own strength would increase. He didn't have a Vision. But with his current cultivation of Sun Breathing and the Five-Thunder Art, he should also see a boost.
Two fruits went down one after the other.
A scorching power surged within his body, and his strength began to grow rapidly.
For some reason, after eating two fruits, Su Han still felt a lingering sense of wanting more.
Should I have another one?
He picked up a Blood Bodhi, hesitated for a moment, then ate it in one bite.
As he expected, his constitution was different.
His strength was still increasing, but the rate of increase was not as low as he had imagined.
Until it was completely digested, Su Han felt that he could still eat one more.
The nearby Shenhe asked, "Weren't we only supposed to eat two? Why are you still eating?"
"I don't know either. After eating the fruit, my body felt unsatisfied. And my strength is still increasing when I eat them."
As he spoke, Su Han swallowed another fruit.
Only then did a sense of satisfaction slowly emerge.
Four was his limit. He couldn't eat any more.
When the digestion was complete, Su Han took a moment to feel his own strength.
Compared to before, his power had more than doubled.
However, even with this strength, he was still no match for the likes of Keqing.
What a pity that the Blood Bodhi were no longer useful to him. Su Han showed a look of regret.
At that moment, Ningguang looked at the completely dead Fire Qilin and asked, "What should we do with this thing?"
Although it was a demonic beast, the Fire Qilin's body was a treasure trove. It absolutely could not be wasted.
Su Han suggested, "Let's dismember it. We can collect the blood and see if we can cultivate more Blood Bodhi. As for the meat, we can give it to Xiangling to research. Maybe we can gain another power boost by eating its flesh. As for the hide and claws, they can be made into armor and weapons. This mission was a massive profit."
Hearing his words, everyone couldn't help but laugh. It was true. None of the previous missions had been like this one, allowing everyone to increase their strength.
However, at this moment, Zhongli gave a reminder. "Before you eat the Qilin's meat, it would be best to cleanse the demonic energy within its body. Otherwise, it will cause no small amount of trouble."
Perhaps others could not sense it, but he could see it with a single glance.
The demonic energy contained within the Fire Qilin's body, if not handled properly, could cause a person to go insane from the corruption, falling into a demonic state.
In Teyvat, this power was called baleful energy. It existed in all nations, but it was particularly severe in Inazuma and Liyue.
Hearing this, Su Han smiled. "That's simple. We can just use the Dragon Veins to purify it."
As he spoke, he took the Dragon Veins and placed them on the Fire Qilin's corpse.
Instantly, countless wisps of black energy began to float out from the body.
