Chapter 405: Bloodletting

Under the pain that was as intense as the tide, Jerry was about to faint several times.

He tightly clutched the acupoints on his body, trying to use this to resist that wild power.

But he also knew that this time, the fusion with the golden core was most likely a failure.

He could not control the divine power flow in his body at all. If the divine power in the golden core was comparable to a waterfall, then the size of his divine power was like a tap water pipe.

In a trance, he seemed to hear someone shouting for him. It was a very familiar voice.

There was also a sharp sound of air being cut.

“Spear? What are you doing?”

Apollo looked at the scene in front of him in shock.

The first was His Majesty, Jerry, who was lying on the ground at the moment. His life and death remained unknown.

Seeing this scene, Apollo was burning with anxiety. He quickened his pace, wanting to see what had happened to His Majesty.

But before he could do so, the Spear had rushed to His Majesty’s side.

Apollo had thought that Spear was also anxious, but in the next moment, he realized that something was wrong.

The spear was attacking His Majesty!

The spear shook rapidly, as if very skillfully, poked at His Majesty’s hands and feet, quickly leaving a few wounds on His Majesty’s body.

And amidst those scars, bright divine blood was flowing out.

Apollo was extremely shocked. He could not think of anything else that had caused His Majesty to fall to the ground at this moment.

He even could not understand what plan Spear had have that he had attacked His Majesty at this moment.

“What are you doing! Stop!”

Apollo was also burning with anxiety. At this moment, he could not care less. He squeezed out a burst of divine power and was about to attack Spear.

But a hand pressed in front of Apollo. Simmons stopped him.

At this moment, Simmons frowned. He was staring at His Majesty on the ground, as if he was thinking about something.

A moment later, Simmons said, “Did His Majesty eat that golden core?”

The patrol team member rushed over at this moment. When he heard such a question, he replied, “It seems so. When I left, I saw His Majesty take out something and eat it.”

As a native of the Endless tower, Simmons had heard of that golden core.

It was said that there were some extremely powerful creatures whose divine power was so great that they could not completely controlled it.

In other words, their divine power had already reached a very high level, but their bodies had not been trained to the level where they could withstand such power.

Under such circumstances, if they were to release all their divine power and use it, then it would be extremely easy for their bodies to collapse.

It was just like using a plastic muzzle to fire a bullet. The bullet might be able to shoot out, but the muzzle would definitely be crippled.

Therefore, in such a situation, there was a way to store a part of his divine power and not use it.

The storage method varied, but every one of them would embody the divine power in the body and it would usually stay in the body.

The golden core was probably in such a situation.

Perhaps the giant monkey had not had time to absorb all the power of the golden core after the fusion, or perhaps its own body was not strong enough to bear such power. Therefore after the giant monkey died, the golden core, which was composed of concentrated divine power, was found in its carcass.

Of course, if an outsider killed the master of the golden core and obtained the golden core, there was no so-called the correct way of using it.

At present, the only known safe way to use it was to use it every morning after waking up, lick the golden core and absorb a part of the divine power.

The reason why in the morning was that it was a painful process to absorb the divine power in this manner. If he did it at night, he would not be able to sleep at night.

In the legends that Simmons heard when he was young, there were many people who were muddle-headed and deluded about absorbing all the power of the golden core in one go.

As that was the divine power that even its master did not dare to use, if one wanted to swallow it in one go, it was almost certain that his whole body would explode. Even the most tenacious person would not be able to withstand such power.

Only if one’s own body was much higher than the divine power contained in the golden core, would it be safe to do so.

However, it was completely unnecessary because rather than taking the risk of absorbing the divine power of others, they were more willing to cultivate on their own.

But it was said that it was not completely hopeless. There was also a legend that said that those who directly ate the golden core had a chance to survive, but it was only a legend.

At this time, His Majesty seemed to have swallowed the golden core. The current situation could only be described as dangerous.

His Majesty’s current realm was at Tier Three god-king, and the golden core left behind after the death of the giant monkey was probably at Tier Four or Tier Five god-king.

Such a golden core could only be used safely by the people at Tier Six god-king realm.

Of course, that was if they were willing, or if such a great existence really existed in this world.

That majestic power was not something that His Majesty, who was now a Tier Three god-king, could control.

Even just by looking at it, Simmons could feel the pain His Majesty was suffering at the moment. It was the result of an energy that did not belong to him at all, ramming inside his body.

It could be said that if nothing was being done, His Majesty would definitely die here.

In the place where he grew up, there was a saying that when one discovered that someone had a disease that could not be cured, one might as well treat it using the last resort by draining a certain amount of blood.

At this moment, Spear seemed to be doing this.

Moreover, when everyone was at a loss, it might as well let Spear try.

Everyone knew that Ares was a careless person, and he had probably fallen into many enemies’ traps.

From this perspective, perhaps Spear might be good at dealing with things.

When Bulanda saw this scene, he felt a little familiar.

After a moment, he understood. Wasn’t this the bloodletting therapy that existed in history?

That was a long time ago when medicine was not very developed. Doctors at that time loved to use this method to treat patients.

The scientific theory at that time was limited. They believed that a person could get sick because the blood in the body affected the balance of the body. One only needed to release a part of the blood to recover.

This method had a certain effect, but more often than not, it caused a lot of harm and turned a small illness into a terminal illness.

But now, on this island, it seemed that there was no other way.
