Chapter 501: Refining Essence Blood, Bloodline Transformation
Chapter 501: Refining Essence Blood, Bloodline Transformation
Over a decade ago, Xiao Li had already reached the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage.
As for Wu Xing, it had achieved that stage even earlier.
Wu Xing was gifted, and even while still in the Secret Realm, it had already reached the Foundation Establishment Perfection stage as a spirit beast.
Its physical body was exceptionally strong, comparable to that of a cultivator at the Initial Golden Core stage.
Originally, Xiao Li and Wu Xing had been eligible to undergo the heavenly tribulation a decade ago.
However, after witnessing the terrifying power of the heavenly tribulation when the elder cultivator faced it, the two young ones felt the gravity of the situation.
They later learned that the Golden Core tribulation had different levels, which would impact their future cultivation paths.
Thus, they both decided to temporarily postpone the tribulation, choosing instead to continue refining and accumulating a solid foundation to ensure they could form a stronger base during the Golden Core tribulation.
Lu Qing naturally supported their ambitious decision.
So, over the past decade, he never pressured them to undergo the tribulation, allowing them to continue refining and accumulating strength.
Now, when Lu Qing suddenly inquired, Xiao Li and Wu Xing were taken aback.
After a moment's thought, Xiao Li said, "Over the years, I've been diligently cultivating the techniques from my bloodline inheritance, refining my foundation. Now, I've almost reached my limit and can't advance any further.
I'm ready to undergo the tribulation at any time, but I'm not sure what level of heavenly tribulation it will trigger."
"I'm in a similar situation; I've refined myself to my limit", the Five-Color Winged Snake also nodded.
Xiao Li possesses a bloodline inheritance. When she reached the Congenital Realm, she awakened part of her bloodline inheritance.
Over the years, as her cultivation realm advanced, she refined the techniques from her inheritance to a very profound level.
Now, she has almost exhausted her potential and can hardly make any more progress.
The Five-Color Winged Snake is even more so.
It was born in the Wu Xing Secret Realm, a unique spirit beast with no parents, nurtured by nature.
It has no bloodline inheritance and can only rely on instinct for cultivation.
Therefore, over the past decade, its progress has been even slower than Xiao Li's.
"Reached your limits, huh..." Lu Qing nodded slightly.
He took out two Jade Vessels from his Qian Kun Yi Qi Bag.
"Here are two portions of Essence Blood, which I obtained by trading with a senior exotic beast.
This senior is powerful, with profound cultivation, and has a bloodline of exceptional origin.
Take a look and see if these portions of Essence Blood can be of any use to you."
Lu Qing opened the stopper of one of the Jade Vessels, and a peculiar fragrance wafted out.
The Essence Blood refined by the Ancient Dragon Turtle had no bloody smell; instead, it emitted a strange and pleasant aroma.
"This is—!"
When Xiao Li and Wu Xing caught the scent, their eyes widened, and they stared intently at the Jade Vessel in Lu Qing's hand.
Their instincts as spirit beasts told them that the contents of the Jade Vessel were highly attractive to them.
If they could refine it, they would likely gain unimaginable benefits.
Especially the Five-Color Winged Snake, whose heart raced.
It felt that the treasure in the Jade Vessel was even more attractive to it than the lotus seeds from Wu Xing's treasure lotus.
If not for the deep-seated reverence for its master, it might have already tried to snatch the Jade Vessel.
"Ah Qing, you're saying this is for us?"
Xiao Li asked excitedly.
"Of course, but you must act within your limits. These two portions of Essence Blood are no ordinary substances. They come from a highly esteemed senior exotic beast, and they may not be easy to refine."
Lu Qing handed the two portions of Essence Blood to Xiao Li and Wu Xing.
The source of these two portions of Essence Blood was the Nine-Tribulation Exotic Beast, the Ancestral Dragon.
Although the bloodline had been diluted over generations by the time it reached the Ancient Dragon Turtle, it was still formidable.
So, Lu Qing specially reminded them.
"Don't worry, Ah Qing, we'll remember!"
Xiao Li, Female took the Jade Vessel, extremely excited.
"Alright, then you two go into the chamber and start refining the Essence Blood. I'll guard for you."
Soon, in the Jade Transformation Chamber, Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing each took a position, preparing to refine the Essence Blood in the Jade Vessel.
Lu Qing and Xiao Yan, Female stayed outside to guard them.
Seeing Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing swallow the Essence Blood and begin refining it, a hint of anticipation appeared in Lu Qing’s eyes.
He had already used his abilities to inspect the Essence Blood given by the Ancient Dragon Turtle, and found no issues.
Moreover, the information revealed by his ability showed that if a talented being refined the Essence Blood, there was a slight chance of obtaining the true Ancestral Dragon bloodline.
Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing were not ordinary spirit beasts.
Wu Xing, naturally, was born and raised in the Wu Xing Secret Realm, inherently possessing the Wu Xing power. He was one of the most unique beings in the entire world.
Xiao Li, Female, on the other hand, was also extraordinary.
While the Night Spirit Lynx clan’s lineage wasn’t as spectacular as the Five-Color Winged Snake’s, it was far from that of ordinary spirit beasts.
More importantly, since following Lu Qing, Xiao Li, Female had encountered several opportunities. She had undergone multiple transformations, greatly enhancing her foundation.
She had also awakened two innate abilities, and in terms of potential, she might even surpass Wu Xing.
Thus, Lu Qing was quite hopeful about the results of their Essence Blood refinement.
Even if they didn’t awaken the Ancestral Dragon bloodline, awakening the Suan Ni bloodline would still be a great thing.
As Lu Qing watched, Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing diligently refined the Essence Blood.
As the Essence Blood was gradually refined and absorbed into their bodies, a faint but formidable aura began to emanate from them.
The aura wasn’t overwhelming, but it was awe-inspiring, even causing Lu Qing a slight unease.
"Looks like they are refining it smoothly."
Seeing this, Lu Qing felt a surge of joy.
So far, Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing’s refinement had gone smoothly without any setbacks.
This mysterious aura was likely emanating from the Essence Blood.
Time passed, and Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing continued to refine the Essence Blood without any abnormalities.
Instead, the aura emanating from them gradually grew more substantial.
Finally, when they reached a critical point, both of them shuddered simultaneously.
A powerful suction force then emerged from within them, drawing in the dense spiritual qi in the chamber like a whale consuming water.
The large amount of spiritual qi gathered, forming white mists that enveloped their bodies.
Seeing this, Lu Qing manipulated the mystic incantation, and the array in the chamber activated, drawing in the spiritual qi from a wide area outside to support their transformation.
He had chosen the Jade Transformation Chamber for them to refine the Essence Blood precisely for this moment.
With the array’s enhancement, their transformation would be much easier.
Xiao Li, Female and Wu Xing’s transformation lasted for half a day.
During this time, they continuously absorbed spiritual qi, hidden in the dense white mists.
If not for the fact that the spiritual qi in the Ten Thousand Great Mountains had become much denser over the past decade, even with the array’s assistance, it would have been difficult to supply their intense consumption.
Finally, when their internal transformation neared its end, Xiao Li, Female and the others stopped absorbing spiritual qi.
The white mist gradually dissipated, revealing their figures.
