Godly Revival System: I Buy My Killer's Stats - Chapter 398: Undead Marrow Essence

Chapter 398: Undead Marrow Essence

Near the Stronghold, the activity of the Undead Beings was very low, and it was because of this that Ethan was not worried much about it and decided to test his new Cultivation Technique.

Of course, the Undead Beings might come if he absorbs a huge quantity of Death Essence – enough to earn one million Life Points.

[Successfully converted the Death Essence into Life Points. The host received 12,300 Life Points.]

‘12,300 Life Points per minute? T-this…isn’t that a little too much?’

Ethan already guessed that the [Abyssal Death Essence Refining Technique] would be powerful; however, he didn’t expect it to be this powerful.

Moreover, currently, he was only a few steps away from the stronghold where the Death Essence was not dense.

‘If I use the Heavenly Spirit Essence Refining Technique at this place, I wouldn’t even get 2,000 Life Points in a minute.’

Ethan didn’t have to use his Heavenly Technique to guess how many Life Points he could get from using the Heavenly Technique.

‘I wonder how many Life Points I can get if I cultivate at the location where I first appeared in the Greenheart Realm.’

Ethan could not help but smile at this thought; however, he had no plans to take another such risk of going far away from the Stronghold….at least in the short term.

‘Let’s earn 500,000 Life Points before going back into the Stronghold.’

After seeing the effects of his Death Technique, Ethan decided to cultivate for some time and earn 500,000 Life Points.

From his understanding, when he absorbs the Death Essence equivalent to one million Life Points, the Undead Beings would come to him.

Since he and his Undead Avatar are both cultivating using the same Death Technique, Ethan decided to continue cultivating for less than an hour before going back into the Stronghold.

Time continued to pass, and in a flash, 45 minutes had gone by.

Ethan slowly opened his eyes, the faint traces of Death Essence still swirling around him, a testament to the continuous conversion process.

‘That should be enough… no point in drawing too much attention to myself.’

He let out a calm breath, feeling satisfied with nearly 500,000 Life Points he had earned during the past 45 minutes.

Ethan knew that if he kept going, he’d cross the threshold that would definitely attract the attention of the wandering Undead Beings.

If it were only the Undead Army, Ethan would be more than happy to welcome them; however, it is the Spectral Death Knight that Ethan was worried about.

‘Let’s see how much my Undead Avatar’s cultivation has increased.’

The first thing Ethan wanted to check was his Undead Avatar’s cultivation.

However, even before he could check it, Ethan received a system notification regarding his Undead Avatar.

[Dark Overlord has reached Peak Bone Refining Realm.]

[It requires an Undead Essence Marrow to break through to the Bone Foundation Realm.]

Ethan paused, his gaze shifting to the black skeleton beside him.

Sensing his gaze, the blue flames in its eye sockets flickered with a steady glow, calm and unyielding.

‘So, it needs Undead Essence Marrow to break through… just like cultivators need the Foundation Establishment Pill to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm.’

Ethan was not surprised that it had reached the Peak of the Bone Refining Realm in less than an hour.

However, what he didn’t expect was the required resource to break through to the Bone Foundation Realm.

Even though the [Abyssal Death Essence Refining Technique] was powerful, the path of cultivation, whether it is for Cultivators or the Undead Beings, still demanded resources to temper the body and soul… maybe the latter part can be removed for the Undead Beings.

‘Undead Essence Marrow….where will I get it?’

Ethan rose slowly, dusting off his clothes, thinking about the Undead Essence Marrow.

‘I wonder whether the pure Death Essence I noticed while killing the Skeletal Warriors was the Undead Essence Marrow?’

When destroying the Skeletal Warriors, Ethan noticed small traces of violet liquid coming out of the shattered bones.

Although he was not sure whether it was the Undead Marrow Essence or not, Ethan decided to ask the system about it after collecting it.

‘Swiish’

‘Kacha’

With a thought, a bone appeared in Ethan’s hands, which he shattered and soon, Ethan collected a drop of violet liquid coming out of the broken bones.

[Detected three drops of Undead Essence Marrow. Do you want to use them for your Undead Avatar’s breakthrough?]

[Note: At least one drop of Undead Essence Marrow from a Bone Foundation Stage Skeleton is enough for the Undead Avatar to break through.]

[Note: Using more drops increases the chance of awakening a Special Skill related to their race.]

Ethan’s eyes gleamed with excitement. Reading the system notifications, he understood perfectly.

“So that’s how it works… the more Undead Essence Marrow I use, the better the chance to unlock the Special Skills. I know exactly what to do.”

He glanced at his Undead Avatar with determination.

Thı𝘴 𝕔hȺp𝓉ℯr ɩʂ pο𝖘𝖙є𝒅 b𝘺 𝐾𝒾𝘵𝖾𝗇◎𝖛є𝙡

“Dark Overlord, I will collect as much Undead Essence Marrow as possible to help you break through to the Bone Foundation Realm.”

The Undead Avatar remained silent, but the tiny blue flames flickering in its eye sockets flared brighter, as if responding to his will.

“For now, stay inside the storage ring.”

After a careful sweep of the surroundings, Ethan entered the Stronghold.

He didn’t rush to feed the bones to the Ancient Heartwood Tree. Instead, he gathered the Greenfolk People.

“Help me collect the violet liquid from these bones before we feed them to the Ancient Heartwood Tree,” Ethan instructed, because with many hands, the task will be completed in no time.

The Greenfolk People arrived in numbers, their eyes widening in shock as they saw the huge pile of shattered bones spread before them.

But the shock quickly shifted into excitement. They knew these bones were extremely valuable to the Ancient Heartwood Tree—essential for creating Life Essence.

More importantly, they felt reassured by Ethan’s presence. To them, their Hero’s ability to destroy the Undead Armies so thoroughly proved his strength beyond doubt.

With eager hands, they began collecting the dripping violet liquid, working swiftly and efficiently.

‘Each Skeletal Warrior’s bones yield roughly 100 drops of Undead Essence Marrow.’

Ethan observed them for a while to take note of the estimated yield from each Skeletal Warrior before he himself collected marrow from three Skeletal Commanders.

‘Huh? 100,000 drops? As expected of a Skeletal Commander.’

Seeing close to 100,000 drops of Undead Marrow Essence, Ethan’s eyes lit up and quickly repeated the same for the remaining two Skeletal Commanders.

After less than 30 minutes, altogether, they gathered more than 550,000 drops of Undead Essence Marrow.

“Feed the bones to the Ancient Heartwood Tree.”

Although the Undead Marrow Essence was removed from the bones, they still contained Death Essence. So, Ethan ordered the Greenfolk People to feed the tree.

“Yes, Hero.”

When the collection was complete, all the bones were fed into the Ancient Heartwood Tree.

At the same time, Ethan was checking the changes in the [Live Status] of the tree from his treehouse.

From those bones, the tree still generated Life Essence, but only 0.01 percent, which is about one-third of its previous output.

Still, Ethan was satisfied.

Soon, the Tree poured the Life Essence into the Greenheart Realm, filling the gap that Ethan and his Undead Avatar had created earlier. Thus, the Life Essence in the Greenheart Realm has reached 10.02 percent.

…..

Time continued to pass, and in a flash, nine days passed by, and the harvest day for the Emerald Life Grass had come.

‘I wonder…what kind of ability my Little Pebble will awaken from the Emerald Life Grass?’
