Location- Unknown, Blood Rule Source

Any blood spilled in the blood rule source would be absorbed by its surface but that was not the case for the Deviant Devil's blood especially when spilled out of its body. Even in the blood rule source, the Deviant Devil's blood managed to retain its strong vitality and its strong sense of self, not getting absorbed in the blood rule source's surface.

This not only showed that the Deviant Devil's physique was extraordinary but that its attainments in the mastery of the blood rule were very high. If being able to enter the Blood Rule source was a testament to that then the Deviant Devil's blood being able to repel the temptation of the Blood Rule source when spilled off its body was a greater testament to that.

To reach the Deviant Devil's blood and collect a sample of it within the time limit, Wyatt could only think of the trial and error method. He just had to keep trying until he got the sample of the Devil's blood or found the opportunity to escape his shitshow. Wyatt did not plan to stay around just to get his hands on the Deviant Devil's blood sample.

Wyatt was doing this to keep him occupied, which the Devil and Dragon were fooling around. His main priority was to fake his death, escape to the dark realm, and lie low for a while.

Though collecting the DNA samples was not his main priority, there was a purpose for why Wyatt was collecting the DNA. That was to make the clones and then replicate their race's gifts. Wyatt could buy the DNA sample of these two ruler-class being's tribe at the inter-realm network at a price but he was after their DNA because these two had the best genes of their tribe. Their physique and traits were rare in their tribe, they cannot be found in other elite members of their tribe let alone the regular members. This was especially true in the case of the Deviant Devil, its reality-bending muscle physique was unique in the Mulias tribe. So their DNA samples were a treasure trove of rare physiques and traits. Using the information they provide, Wyatt could use the ingredients obtained from their regular tribesmen to make capable cards for himself or his subordinates.

There were some things Wyatt could not buy in the inter-realm network and some information that Wyatt could not find in the infinity library, the DNA samples of the Devil and the Dragon were both of these things. Their parts were so valuable that they could not be found in the market, the information their best genes had could not be found in a library. Only with such rare information and ingredients could Wyatt stand the chance to make it to the top in this saturated world.

Wyatt used a calamity daughter soul to create a clone, then had it morph into the fastest being whose DNA sample he had sacrificed to the myriad devil transformation skill. It was an insect race, the Coldstone Cobbler Ant. These ants could travel 720 miles per hour as a mortal. If they were to possess the prowess, physique, traits, and cards of Wyatt, then the speed they could achieve according to Hive AI was enough for Wyatt's clone to reach the blood of the devil and collect a sample within the time limit.

This was just a theoretical claim of the Hive AI after conducting numerous simulations, now it was up to Wyatt's clone to take the practical test and prove the theoretical claims were correct. Wyatt never doubted the accuracy of the Hive AI but today was different because of the large cloud of the blood rule energy covering the battlefield. It was interfering with his soul pupils. So Wyatt felt there were chances of a slight error in Hive AI's theoretical results.

The clone morphed Coldstoe Cobbler Ant stood by the edge of the turtle shell shield ready to sprint after the explosion when the devil moans aloud in pleasure.

*Boom*

"Ah~"

*Zoom!* Getting the signal, the Coldstoe Cobbler Ant clone of Wyatt dased towards its destination using the predetermined route mapped by the Hive AI. This way even if the blood-rule energy fog was blocking its sight it would know exactly where to go. Forsaking everything else the clone kept dashing toward the devil's blood with a one-track mind.

Seeing the clone-morphed ant reaching closer to the devil's blood, Wyatt looked at it with anticipation, seeing the Ant reached its destination with a few seconds to spare he cheered for its success inwardly. But the Devil had noticed it as it tried to collect its blood in a storage card. Wyatt hoped that it wouldn't get quashed by the devil. As Wyatt had guessed, lost in satisfying its addiction it ignored the pesky ant stealing its blood.

Now that the Ant had gotten a sample of the devil's blood, it was the moment of truth. The truth of whether the space at source was so strong that no one under the transcendence realm could scrabble the space in it. The Ant used the A-rank teleportation card to teleport to Wyatt's side under the cover of the turtle shell shield. And—

*Poof!*

It worked, proving that the space inside the blood rule was indeed strong as the myths claimed. The Deviant Devil and the Dragon were strong but neither of them was as strong as true transcendent. The devil could use its reality manipulation to bend the space surrounding it to its whim but it could not do that for the entire battlefield. It would have to consume too much physical power, energy, and spiritual strength. Therefore, after arriving in the blood rule source it unleashed its blood rule domain to trap Wyatt and hinder the Elder Anesthesia Dragon instead of using its presence to scrabble the space of the blood rule source as it could do in any other world or dimension. As a result Wyatt's gambit worked, he got the Devil's blood sample within the time limit.
