I don't know for how long I had remained unconscious when I felt my conscious returning.

In a few seconds, I became completely conscious and in pain like never before; the pain was so intense that I nearly lost consciousness for the second time. It took me a while to get used to the pain and scan my body with my senses.

As I did that, I received another shock, my body was in a complete shamble, nearly all bones of my body had broken, my skin was torn in multiple places, but that is not the worst, the worst is the internals.

They are in complete shambles; everything is broken inside me, seeing the condition of my body, I know I am a serious danger that I could lose my life at any moment.

If normal Baron or even normal Viscount had been in my place, they would have lost their life second after the last attack of the Orc Blood, but I was lucky enough not to.

It was all due to my strong body and superior healing power; it was because of these two I am lying on the edge of life and not, if not, then I would be lying dead like Orc blood not, which's dead is meter ahead of me.

But now that the healing ability of my body is losing the battle against fatal injuries I got, if I did not do something very soon, then there will be no one who will stop me from going to the underworld.

I am clearly aware that I am lingering on the edge of life and death; the smallest mistake could cost me my life, which is why I didn't even move an inch.

I soon finished scanning through all the injuries and understood how serious they are. I could not use my usual method of eating monster meat to heal the wounds, it's good that I have another way, and that is the Moonwell Method.

Moonwell Method does not have the healing power, what it does though is that during circulation if it spotted the injuries, it called the vitality that is stored inside me to heal the injuries that are present on my body, now all I have to do is circulate the energy, but it will not be easy.

In my heat space, 90% of my energy lake is dyed Red with faint green color, while 10% is filled with crystal clear water.

Seeing the lake like that I am a little confused, the first thing I got confused about was that 10% part of the lake that is filled with crystal clear water, usually when any foreign energy entered inside me it used to pollute the whole lake, but this time it only polluted 90%.

The second thing I am confused about is energy polluting the lake, as it is not mana, its place should have been the Hill where Vitality gathers.

I am clearly aware that Orc Blood used three levels of his secret method. When he first activated ist Method, it only burned its blood for power, and that blood was specially cultivated for the practice of its secret method.

The first level did not seem to be harmful to it at all, but the second level was different. The second level was very harmful as in the 2nd level, it did not burn all the blood in its body, but it also burned its vitality, which is quite harmful to one body and will require weeks of rest, including precious potion.

At the third level, it had started burning its lifeforce, which made fumes coming out of it darker with a tinge of vibrant green.

I am very lucky to have such amazing bloodline ability that could immediately suck any foreign energy that entered my body; if not, then the 2nd level of its Secret Method was enough to finish me off, and as for the 3rd it would be enough to kill people like Richard.

The energy from the last attack had only stayed inside for less than a second, but it was enough to take me near the gates of the underworld.

I am feeling confused, but I have no time to waste in thinking about it. The thing I should be focused on is circulating the energy and healing my injuries.

Since I broke through the 2nd level Moonwell Method yesterday, I haven't circulated through it; It will be my first time doing that.

Taking a couple of deep breaths, I started to pick up a few strands of energy when I suddenly stopped as they did not come to me. The strands I was trying to pick up the 10% unpolluted energy, but when I tried, they did not come to me.

I tried again and again, but no matter how much I tried, they could not come to me, seeing that I know I will first have to refine the polluted energy first before I could refine the unpolluted one.

So, I started to pick dark red polluted strands of energy which I lot heavier; I picked thirty strands before I stop, I pick more thirty if I but that would be my limit which made me the circulating more strained than it already is which could collapse the delicate balance my body is having, so I only picked thirty strands.

Though I am clearly away, that vitality I could draw is directly dependent upon energy, I am circulating. Vitality drawn by thirty strands would not be much, but it would be enough to stabilize me further, and as I stabilized further, I could take more energy for the refinement, thus healing more of energy.

This apache is slow, but the best one, with this approach, chances of my slow down the as slow but sure speed.

'It did not disappoint me.' I thought as I took the energy to my veins, circulating it is very hard, it completely matched the extreme difficulty that celestial methods are famous for.

But that did not stop me from continuing circulating; after stopping for a moment, I started to circulate at a very slow speed, it is not like I don't want to faster, but I could not faster as I am circulating using all I have.

Gasp!

The energy moved forward and finally I was able to draw some vitality, as I am seeing that, I noticed another thing, I saw the lifeforce of Orc Blood merging with me, which made me Gasp in shock.

It is common knowledge of this world that the lifeforce of others is very poisonous to one, not to forget it an extreme taboo as this literally sucking off one's life.

When I started circulating, I only had one wish, and this is that this life force that Orc Blood does not poison and vapor out of my body, but I had never expected to fuse with my body.

Life is a hundred times stronger than the vitality and tiny bit of Lifeforce that merged into my body had healed me considerably, seeing that my tired mind felt recharged and I started to circulate the energy even faster than before.
