Chapter : 2
The SUN GOD BODY, THE DIVINE GRADE BLOODLINE
-------------------------
Looking at the void that became normal after Elder Yun left, the elders in the Celestial Pavilion looked at the child and nodded at each other.
"Xiao Feng, go and take back the two children to their mother, they have just been born. And after one month, we will do the bloodline and physique test of both children, to see if they have awakened any physique." At this time, an elder in her late sixties, Qing Hua, spoke to Qing Feng.
Hmm... Qing Feng, caressing both his children in his arms, nodded at the words of Qing Hua.
After that, they all left.
One Week Later
In the courtyard of Qing Feng.
The two babies lay inside a tub, and that tub was filled with warm water. However, the medicinal liquid was made with very precious herbs.
And the parents of both children, Qing Feng and Ji Yuyue, were helping them take the medicinal bath, because they would soon undergo the bloodline test, and their bodies needed to be tempered, since they would be hurt a little.
Although neither of the children had any consciousness.
All of it was done by Ji Yuyue herself.
"Husband, look at Xiao Long. He has a very strong physique, and the warm medicinal liquid was absorbed into his body much faster than Xiao Tian's. Do you recognize the physique of Xiao Long...?" Ji Yuyue, who was helping the children with her spiritual power to let their bodies absorb the medicinal liquid, suddenly noticed something.
Qing Long was absorbing the essence much faster; almost three or four times that of Qing Tian.
Qing Feng, who was watching, was also stunned after what his wife observed.
He paused for a moment, then his eyes glowed red, as if scanning the entire body of Qing Long.
The moment he scanned, his heartbeat stopped for a while, and his hands started to tremble.
His breathing became fast too.
He wanted to say something but was unable.
Ji Yuyue also noticed the abnormality in her husband's gaze and his trembling hands.
She looked worried for a second and mustered her courage to ask what happened.
"Husband, did you find anything wrong..?"
"Wife... have you ever felt weak and low energy in your body, when you were pregnant...?" Calming himself down, he looked at Ji Yuyue and asked her.
"Huh... weakness... hmmm... umm... yeah... when I was pregnant, I felt it many times. But because of the precious medicine, and especially the Undying Flame Heart Flower and Yin-Yang Nurturing Pill, they built up huge energy and spiritual power inside me."
"If it weren't for reaching the Major Saint Realm of the Saint Realm, I'm not even sure if I would have been able to give birth to two children."
Ji Yuyue looked at the two children gently, her loving eyes filled with affection of the motherly love.
When Qing Feng heard this, he sighed, looked at his wife, and felt some relief, but also some worry.
He finally spoke again.
"Wife... Xiao Long has a very powerful physique...!"
"Huh... Does Xiao Long really have...?" Hearing what her husband said, she was surprised, not noticing the solemnity in his words.
"Hmmm...!"
He nodded.
"Huh... good. Now tell me, what is the name of the physique...?" She looked back at her husband and noticed he didn't say anything right away, then asked again while looking at him.
"Wife... the name of the physique that Xiao Long has is the Sun God Body, which is currently in the stage of the Solar Embryo stage...."
He wanted to say something more, but after thinking, he stopped, sat beside his wife, and looked at both children.
He should be happy to find out that one of his sons awakened a physique, but to be true, he was not; rather, he was worried.
"Husband... I have never heard about this physique. Can you explain this, and how powerful this body is..?" Ji Yuyue asked, while taking Qing Long out of the medicinal bath, using a towel to wipe away the remaining stains on his body, and then placing him into another tub of fresh water.
"This physique was first recorded in the Desolate Mystic World, which is our world in the Fallen River Galaxy. It was possessed only by the Ancestor of the Qing Clan three million years ago, and before or after, there was no other record of the Sun God Body.
According to the ancestor, this physique has three stages. Before the ancestor left, he had developed the physique to the peak of the second stage. As for the third stage, we have no news after he departed to the Upper World."
Shaking his head, he said slowly.
"Then isn't it good that he has such a powerful physique? And as long as I remember, there are notes present in the clan. It is said that he was once an invincible person in his era and dominated the realm of the Desolate World. And there were rarely any opponents for the ancestor."
"There must be records of the physique, and with the help of those, we can help Xiao Long to achieve the third stage of this body that the ancestor may or may not have reached. And if Xiao Long can reach the third stage, he may also dominate the era of today."
Analyzing something, she spoke.
"This… yes, indeed it can help Xiao Long to complete the physique of the Sun God Body." He paused, then his eyes fell on both children. In his eyes, there was pity that couldn't be hidden.
Then he thought of Elder Yun, who had come and spoken about the child wrapped in red silk, that child was Xiao Long.
Time is like water, flowing as the seasons do; yesterday was green youth, today is white frost.
Soon three months have passed since that day.
Ancestral Hall
In the depths of the Qing Clan Ancestral Grounds, there stood the Hall of Origin Blood, a location of both hushed reverence and trepidation of majesty of the Qing Clan.
The hall itself was constructed, an entirely of flawless jade, with the walls emitting a gentle
luminescence that seemed to come alive. Dragon and phoenix runes engraved on its surface were the ultimate signs of dominion, guardianship, and the clan's potential to fly high.
Inside deep within the hall, there was the Ancestral Stone Vessel, that hold the remnant blood from the first patriarch of the clan. Upon reaching few month old, each of a child born of the Qing Clan (main bloodline) would be taken to the hall under the watchful eyes of the elders.
And it is dropped on the Ancestral Stone vessel.
One droplet of blood was drawn and had to fall into the vessel. If the vessel ignited azure light, it heralded that the bloodline flowed true, and the heavens recognised that child as a true heir of Qing.
And the level of the bloodline is showed, that will also decide the future and cultivation talent of the child.
The elder after knowing that Qing Long posses the physique of the Sun God body, that their first ancestor awakened, they paused the bloodline test, which usually done just after one to two month of the born, once it is stbale.
But they postponed it because, they wanted to fully time to merge the physique of the Qing Long.
And with reason, they also postpond the bloodline test of the Qing Tian too.
And decided, both brother, will be tested in one day.
The day was finally chosen.
The clamoring of the clan bells rung deep, low, and permeated through all of the Qing clan. An ominous muggy feeling saturated every space; every servant and disciple whispering against themselves, for the bloodline test was not only a growing ritual, but it was a chance to judge the clan's strength.
The elders were gathering in the large square in front of the Ancestral Hall. Their light fabric robes were living and breathing in the wind, yet their gaze attachment was fixated upon the jade stairs leading to the sacred door.
Qing Feng and Ji Yuyue walked forwards gradually, each holding one child in their arms.
Qing Feng held Xiao Long, who was covered with blazing-red silk, his aura weak but active, while Ji Yuyue took Xiao Tian wrapped with pale blue cloth, his breathing peaceful and steady like stagnant water.
"Bring the children close," Elder Qing Hua's voice echoed, peaceful but with power.
The family progressed, the juniores bowing their heads as the two moved by.
The atmosphere was heavy; for the Qing Clan, today was not just about examining two new babies, it was about determining whether fate was with them or against them.
The jade walls of the Ancestral Hall glistened as if they had a glow of brilliance; or maybe they were vibrating with energy. The runes of dragons and phoenixes faintly pulsed, and there was an ancient force weighing down on everyone in the room.
The Ancestral Stone Vessel lurked silently in the middle.
It did not look unusual; the stone was dark and plain.
However, everyone in the clan knew that the essence of their ancestor, who once shoked the periods of the Desolate World, made this.
Qing Hua stepped forward, lifting her palm out.
"Begin."
Qing Feng come forward in the front of the altar and stood.
An unadorned sharp jade needle emerged, glowing faintly with spiritual light.
Qing Feng held Xiao Long stable as the needle pierced the infant's fingertip to draw out a single drop of blood.
The droplet hovered for a second before falling into the vessel.
For a single heartbeat nothing happened.
Then....
Boom!
The great hall shook. The blood ignited inside the vessel, not only emanating azure light, but a fiery golden light that shook the ceiling with the roar of a tiny sun. The runes of dragons and phoenixes all surged, making their cries audible throughout the hall.
The elders all sprang to their feet as one, their faces filled with shock and disbelief.
"The Sun God Bloodline...!" one exclaimed.
"The ancestor's legend... really comes back...!" another said.
Ji Yuyue's hands trembled as she clenched her hold on Xiao Tian.
Qing Feng's face was darkened with a strange mixture of pride and anxiety, his prior panic now surging up full force.
The golden flames grew taller and taller, forming the shadow of a sun above the vessel lighting up the entire room.
But just then, the light reached its height when, yet again, the vessel trembled. The light twisted, as if fighting against the powers of the bloodline to stabilize, before finally bending to a steady glowing golden light.
The hall was quiet.
Everyone's eyes settled on Xiao Long, his tiny body still calm with a relaxed face that could have been mistaken for asleep.
Then suddenly the a pattern appeared on the forehead of the Qing Long.
"१०"
That represent the tenth grade bloodline, that highest in the clan.
And the golden covered the entire body of the Qing Long, making his small body like a sun god himself descending the mortal world.
"Divine Grade bloodline...!!!!!!"
The moment it was manifested, the entire clan people were shocked, and from their expression, anyone can see, they are in happy mood.
"Truly... it has awakened a child with both the Sun God Body, along with the Qing Bloodline...and even with divine levels" Elder Qing Hua's voice trembled slightly.
"This must mean... either a fortune for the clan, or a scourge for the entire world."
But before the voices of the clan could settle there was a second voice.
"Next..!"
"Test the second child!"
Eyes were quickly drawn to Ji Yuyue and Little Qing Tian, the second twin, that was sleeping in chest of his mother.
