Chapter 71 Reactions from all sides
"It's because of your rejection of the Nine Heart Sea棠 Martial Soul…"
Ye Lingling was silent for a moment before slowly saying, "I understand."
The reason Shi Quan knew was thanks to the Spirit Fusion Skill yesterday. When their Soul consciousnesses intertwined, Shi Quan felt Ye Lingling's rejection, even hatred, for her own Spirit from the fleeting images.
Because Shi Quan was dominant, only Shi Quan sensed her, while Ye Lingling did not sense Shi Quan.
But it was precisely this sensation that allowed Shi Quan to understand and feel more for Ye Lingling.
Originally, Shi Quan thought Ye Lingling was simply a cold and aloof person. Through this sensation, Shi Quan personally experienced the loneliness and desolation in Ye Lingling's heart. This feeling was as if she had no attachment to the entire World, burying endless sadness and pain.
It's hard to imagine what Ye Lingling had gone through to have such a shattered feeling, as if she had lost everything.
"Is there anything else?" Ye Lingling asked, seeing Shi Quan's hesitant expression.
"Nothing." Shi Quan paused, then looked at Ye Lingling and said seriously, "I don't know what happened to you, but I want to tell you that no matter what happens in the future, I and the rest of the Tiandou Battle Team will be your support."
"Also, your voice is very pleasant, and your smile is very beautiful. You can talk more and smile more in the future."
Shi Quan didn't know why he said these words to Ye Lingling. Was it pity? Or something else.
"Mm." Ye Lingling only hummed softly, without much change in her expression.
Shi Quan sighed slightly. Ye Lingling's situation clearly couldn't be resolved with a few words.
Because Shi Quan didn't know much about Spirit Fusion Skill, to avoid further mistakes, after discussing for a while, they decided to wait until Shi Quan understood more before making specific training arrangements.
For the next period, Shi Quan studied Spirit Fusion Skill related knowledge while perfecting his new ultimate spirit ring theory.
Due to the Spirit Fusion Skill, and with the encouragement of Dugu Yan and others, the relationship between Shi Quan and Ye Lingling became much closer.
…
Tian Dou Imperial Palace, Crown Prince's Palace.
"A black bamboo similar to Black Jade Divine Bamboo?"
Xue Qinghe looked at the message from the Three Great Education Committee, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. "Dugu Bo actually has such a good thing? It can even make Shi Quan's Spirit evolve and his strength increase so much?"
"Your Highness, this bamboo is unheard of, and its efficacy is too exaggerated. Is there any secret hidden within? Should I investigate?"
The one who spoke was Snake Lance Douluo.
"Poison Douluo has devoted his life to poison, so it's not impossible for him to have some special herbs. Elder Snake Lance, please return to Spirit City first and confirm with Elder Chrysanthemum."
Xue Qinghe said unhurriedly, "Elder Chrysanthemum has loved herbs all his life. His understanding of herbs far exceeds ordinary people. Perhaps he knows the origin of the bamboo. As long as we confirm whether this bamboo truly exists and what its specific medicinal effects are, things will become simple."
"That's right." Snake Lance Douluo nodded and continued, "Your Highness, what about Shi Quan? Not to mention his Spirit evolution, his strength has advanced by leaps and bounds to level thirty-one. He is not even eleven years old yet. This speed is almost catching up to Your Highness. He is currently at Tian Dou Royal Academy, not only closely interacting with the little one from Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but also with people from Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If such a Genius is not taken into hand, he will undoubtedly become a major hidden danger in the future."
"Don't worry, this Shi Quan is very clever. He deeply understands the Dao of balancing power. Even when Ning Fengzhi personally invited him and showed him favor, he did not join Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. He floats among various forces and also outside of them, clearly unwilling to be bound by any force. Such a person will not be used by the people of Upper Three Sects. As for us, we only need to appear when he needs help."
Xue Qinghe showed an expression as if everything was under his control.
…
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Fengzhi looked at the message in his hand, and a fervent look appeared in his eyes.
"There is such a miraculous Immortal Herb in the World? It can not only evolve a Spirit but also increase strength. Can the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Spirit also be promoted in this way?"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin's voice sounded from the side, "Fengzhi, according to Shi Quan, this Immortal Herb is rarely seen in the human World. I'm afraid it will be hard to find."
"At least this is a direction. Maybe Dugu Bo just happens to have this kind of herb?"
Sword Douluo said, "That Dugu Bo fellow has a strange temper and is difficult to deal with. I'm afraid he won't be easy to handle. Even his own granddaughter doesn't have this Immortal Herb. Even if he has other Immortal Herbs, he definitely wouldn't be willing to take out such a treasure."
"We have to try. If it really exists, as long as there is an Opportunity, any price is worth trying."
The problem of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has troubled Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for too many years. To solve this problem, the entire Sect has spent countless human and mental efforts. For the entire Sect, no matter how much they pay, it is worth it.
Sword Douluo couldn't help but shake his head when he saw this and said, "I don't know how that Shi Quan kid managed to win the favor of that old fellow. Such a treasure was actually given to him just like that."
"Uncle Jian, weren't you praising him a while ago?" Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.
"I was praising his talent in the Dao of the sword. This kid shouldn't know much about poison. That old fellow Dugu Bo couldn't possibly have taken a liking to him because of his talent in poison, could he?"
Ning Fengzhi's eyes showed a hint of a smile as he said, "It's been a long time since I've seen Rongrong. It's time to go see her. While I'm at it, I can see if I can get some information from Shi Quan. Then we'll naturally know."
…
Five days later.
Shi Quan submitted his organized new ultimate spirit ring theory to the Education Committee.
According to the new ultimate spirit ring theory, a Spirit Master can further refine the new ultimate age limit based on physical fitness, bone strength, and spirit power pressure resistance.
A hundred-year spirit ring can be specified to ten years, a thousand-year spirit ring can be specified to a hundred years, and a ten-thousand-year spirit ring can be specified to a thousand years. For more detailed data, this is not something Shi Quan can do, as it requires a large number of trials and verifications. Shi Quan's theory can only specify a general range. As long as it is rounded down, there will be no problems.
But even so, Shi Quan's theory was amazing enough.
Shi Quan made three copies of the same theory: one for Yu Tianheng, asking him to pass it to his Family; one for Ning Fengzhi, which was a coincidence as Ning Fengzhi came to Tian Dou Royal Academy on the very day Shi Quan finished organizing the theory.
Ning Fengzhi directly stated his purpose for coming. Shi Quan did not directly explain, but instead motioned for Ning Fengzhi to find Dugu Bo, and stated that he did not understand pharmacology, and that his use of Black Jade Divine Bamboo was due to his second spirit ring, Black Jade Bamboo.
After listening to Shi Quan's explanation, Ning Fengzhi could only shift his target back to Dugu Bo. To show his earnestness, Shi Quan, based on the characteristics of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and his own experience of Spirit evolution after consuming an Immortal Herb, listed several directions of herbs and casually bluffed. Ning Fengzhi immediately left happily with the theory.
Shi Quan is now capable of helping the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Spirit evolve, but being able to and wanting to are two different things.
The last copy Shi Quan sent to Spirit Hall.
The reason for doing so was, on one hand, to maintain his neutrality, and on the other hand, for his own reputation. It was a pity that after waiting for some time, Shi Quan still did not see the appearance of a second reputation treasure box.
He was not clear about the criteria for judging the reputation treasure box, so Shi Quan could only temporarily shift his goal back to the plunder treasure box.
According to Shi Quan's speculation, the nature of the plunder treasure box should be triggered when seizing the Opportunity of the Son of Destiny, Tang San.
Aside from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well Immortal Herb, Tang San had many other Opportunities in the original work.
For example, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, the Blue Silver King's innate spirit ring, the Eight Spider Lances external Spirit Bone, Xiao Wu's sacrifice, and the sacrifices of the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape. These should all belong to Tang San's Opportunities.
In other words, if Shi Quan snatched these resources, it might trigger the plunder treasure box again.
The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was a national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire. In the original work, Tang San saved Emperor Xue Ye's life, and coupled with the need to balance the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Emperor Xue Ye gave out this national treasure.
With his current strength and status, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud was out of the question. As for the sacrifices of Xiao Wu, Sky Azure Bull Python, and Titan Giant Ape, those were matters for the future.
In the near future, the only Opportunities that could trigger a plunder treasure box would be the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, the Blue Silver King's innate spirit ring, and the Eight Spider Lances external Spirit Bone.
The 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone would require waiting for an Opportunity. As for the innate spirit ring, he would first need to obtain the 100,000 Year Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, devour Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin, and at least wait until his spirit power broke through level forty.
And the Eight Spider Lances would have to wait until Tang San went to Shrek Academy.
All of this would have to be planned step by step.
…
Spirit Hall.
Chrysanthemum Douluo listened to the message from Snake Lance Douluo and said with some excitement, "That old poisonous Dugu Bo actually has an Immortal Herb like Black Jade Divine Bamboo?"
"Black Jade Divine Bamboo? What does that have to do with Black Jade Bamboo?" Snake Lance Douluo asked curiously.
"Black Jade Bamboo?" Chrysanthemum Douluo said disdainfully, "Black Jade Bamboo is merely a Spirit Beast with a partial Bloodline of Black Jade Divine Bamboo. How can it compare to Black Jade Divine Bamboo?"
"Then what is Black Jade Divine Bamboo?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo thought for a moment and said, "Black Jade Divine Bamboo is an extremely rare Heaven And Earth Treasure, belonging to the Immortal Herb category. Its medicinal power is indeed compatible with plant Spirits. After consumption, it can not only increase strength but also greatly enhance the toughness and rigidity of the Spirit. As for Spirit evolution, I haven't heard of that, but judging from Shi Quan's situation, it should be related to his Spirit mutation. His Spirit itself was Acquired mutated and unstable, so it's possible for it to evolve under the influence of the medicinal power."
"So, Shi Quan's situation is true?"
"It's highly likely. This Immortal Herb is indeed as Shi Quan described it, something that should only exist in Heaven and is rarely heard of in the human World. It's not strange for it to have such miraculous effects…"Chapter 72 Return Home
"Are there really only these Immortal Herbs in the world?" Even though Chrysanthemum Douluo had told him personally, Snake Lance Douluo still found it somewhat hard to believe.
"There are many types of Immortal Herbs, and their effects vary. An Immortal Herb like Black Jade Divine Bamboo is only suitable for Spirit Masters with plant Spirits of the control system or attack system. If others consume it, not only will it have no effect, but it will also be harmful. It is indeed Shi Quan's luck that he happened to obtain one from that old poison Dugu Bo. However, what I'm more curious about is, why would that old poison Dugu Bo give such a good treasure to someone else?"
A sharp glint flashed in Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes. He understood Dugu Bo very well. From Chrysanthemum Douluo's understanding of Dugu Bo, he would definitely prefer to keep such good things for himself rather than give them away. Since Dugu Bo gave it away, either Dugu Bo didn't recognize the value of this Black Jade Divine Bamboo, or there was some secret between Dugu Bo and Shi Quan.
No matter which situation it was, it was worth him making a trip to Heaven Dou City to meet Dugu Bo again.
…
One month later.
Dugu Bo came to find Shi Quan, cursing and grumbling.
"You stinky brat, because of that Black Jade Divine Bamboo of yours, you've caused me no small amount of trouble."
"Black Jade Divine Bamboo?" Shi Quan put on a puzzled expression.
Dugu Bo said, "It's the bamboo you ate. I only just found out recently that its name is Black Jade Divine Bamboo."
Shi Quan asked curiously, "Grandpa Dugu, how did you confirm its name is Black Jade Divine Bamboo? Have you confirmed the other Immortal Herbs in that medicinal garden?"
"A sissy old fellow told me. I don't know where he got the news that you ate this Black Jade Divine Bamboo. After hearing it, he immediately recognized the origin of the Black Jade Divine Bamboo."
"As for the other Immortal Herbs, don't even think about it. If that old fellow knew I had other Immortal Herbs, he'd probably turn my old den upside down."
Speaking of this, Dugu Bo couldn't help but show an annoyed expression. After a brief pause, he continued, "I came here to remind you, you must keep the matter of my medicinal garden a secret. You absolutely cannot leak information about the other herbs."
"I understand." Shi Quan nodded and asked, "Grandpa Dugu, who exactly is the old fellow you're talking about?"
"That old fellow is named Yue Guan. He's from Spirit Hall and is also a Titled Douluo. His title is Chrysanthemum, and his Spirit is Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum. Speaking of Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, I also have one in my medicinal garden; it's that large golden chrysanthemum."
"As expected." Shi Quan thought to himself, his expression unchanged as he said, "According to what Grandpa Dugu said, Chrysanthemum Douluo's Spirit belongs to the Immortal Herb category. No wonder he could directly recognize other Immortal Herbs. Grandpa Dugu, can't you inquire about other Immortal Herbs from him? Knowing the detailed effects of other Immortal Herbs might even help you resolve your Spirit problem, and perhaps even find some Immortal Herbs that could help Sister Yanzi?"
Dugu immediately shook his head, "Don't even think about that. That sissy is very insidious and cunning. If I were to ask, he would definitely guess that I have other Immortal Herbs. At that time, I'm afraid I'd have even less peace."
Shi Quan comforted him, "Since Chrysanthemum Douluo recognizes Immortal Herbs, these Immortal Herbs must all be recorded. As long as we can find the relevant recorded literature, it will be the same."
"That's right." Dugu Bo nodded, "I came today to remind you, this sissy definitely won't let it go. As a Titled Douluo, he wouldn't stoop to dealing with you directly, but that doesn't mean he won't make things difficult for you. If he really comes knocking, know when to yield, understood?"
"I understand, Grandpa Dugu."
"Good, then you go ahead and be busy. I still need to talk to Du Gu Yan." Dugu Bo patted Shi Quan's shoulder and then left.
…
Unconsciously, another three months passed.
A semester had passed, and Dugu Bo's worries did not materialize. Yue Guan still didn't rush into Tian Dou Royal Academy to find him, after all, there were three Spirit Douluo stationed in the academy.
As the holidays approached, the Tiandou Battle Team members also had a rare day off.
"Shi Quan, are you going home for the holidays?" Dugu Yan sat beside Yu Tianheng and asked curiously.
"Mm, it's been almost a year since I left, and I don't know how things are at home, or how my parents are doing. I should go back and see them." Shi Quan nodded, a hint of longing appearing in his eyes.
"Shi Quan, your home seems to be in Fasinuo Province, right?"
"Mm."
Dugu Yan said, "Fasinuo Province is too far. This time, why don't you just have your parents move to Heaven Dou City? With your current situation, you're not short on money, and with my grandpa helping out, you won't have to worry about any trouble."
"I thought so too, but I'm afraid my parents have been accustomed to Shi Family Village for so many years and won't want to leave their hometown."
"That's true." Dugu Yan seemed to think of something and looked at Ye Lingling, "Lingling, are you staying at the academy again this year? Not going home?"
"Mm." Ye Lingling nodded.
Dugu Yan smiled, "How about you go back with Shi Quan? You don't have anything to do staying in the academy all day. Just treat it as a trip, a change of scenery."
Ye Lingling's empty eyes narrowed slightly. Without much hesitation, she directly shook her head and refused Dugu Yan.
Ning Rongrong, who was beside her, also breathed a sigh of relief at the sight.
But Dugu Yan was persistent and came to Ye Lingling's side, speaking like a close girlfriend, "If you're embarrassed to go alone, I'll go with you. Anyway, Tianheng is going back to his Family, and my grandpa isn't home all day. When the holidays start, I'll tell Grandpa, and then the three of us can go to Shi Quan's place to play together."
Before Ye Lingling could refuse, Dugu Yan directly finalized it, "Alright, it's settled, Lingling."
Dugu Yan didn't even ask for the opinions of the two parties involved and just made the decision directly.
Shi Quan also said helplessly, "Let me say this first, my place isn't fun, and the journey is quite long. Don't complain about being bored then."
"Don't worry, don't worry." Dugu Yan waved her hand with a cheerful smile.
Ning Rongrong, who was beside her, suddenly panicked, lowering her head as if struggling with something, looking like she wanted to speak but didn't. In the end, she still didn't say anything.
…
Three days later, the academy had its holiday.
Shi Quan, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan, all dressed in casual clothes, boarded a carriage and left Tian Dou Royal Academy, heading towards Fasinuo Province, Nuoding City, and Shi Family Village.
Having not been home for over a year, now embarking on the return journey, Shi Quan's longing for home grew even stronger.
However, in just over a year, Shi Quan had directly Ascended from level twenty-one when he first left to level thirty-two. The improvement in his strength was undeniably significant, and the most crucial reason for this was the Immortal Herb.
If this were to be said, no one would believe it.
Along the way, if it had really just been Shi Quan and Ye Lingling, it would have been incredibly awkward, but fortunately, Dugu Yan was there.
When they first set off, Dugu Yan was quite excited, but as time passed, her excitement gradually faded.
They were almost constantly on the road, which was somewhat different from what she had imagined.
"Shi Quan, at our current speed, how much longer will it take to reach Shi Family Village?" Dugu Yan asked idly.
"At the speed of the carriage, it might take about ten days."
"That's too far." Dugu Yan said, covering her face in distress.
Shi Quan smiled, "I told you before."
Dugu Yan said with a speechless expression, "My plan for traveling was to sightsee, eat, and play along the way. Now we've been in this carriage for a whole day, only resting during meal breaks. This is just too boring!"
Shi Quan shook his head and said, "Then we can travel using spirit power. Besides being a bit tiring, it can also serve as training, and our travel speed will be much faster. If we encounter any beautiful scenery along the way, we can also stop and enjoy it."
"Lingling, what do you think?" Dugu Yan looked at Ye Lingling.
Ye Lingling said indifferently, "I'm fine with anything."
Dugu Yan pouted and said, "Then let's stay in a city tonight, rest for one night, and tomorrow, find someone to drive the carriage back to Heaven Dou City. Then we can buy more things for the journey and set off again. This carriage is really too boring. If I have to sit in it for another ten days or so, I'm afraid I'll die of boredom."
"You decide. I'm fine with anything, as long as you don't complain about being tired later."
"Tired?" Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at Shi Quan, "Can it be more tiring than the physical training you and Teacher Qin decided on together?"
Shi Quan chuckled, "Haha, let's hope so."
Actually, Shi Quan's original plan was to travel back by himself. The carriage's speed was indeed not as fast as his own travel, but considering Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, he chose the slower option of taking a carriage.
Now that Dugu Yan didn't want to take the carriage, Shi Quan naturally didn't mind.
After the carriage arrived at the nearest Douxing City, the three of them casually found a pleasant hotel in Douxing City and rested for a night. The next day, according to Dugu Yan's plan, the three abandoned the carriage and began to travel on foot.
In terms of endurance, Shi Quan was naturally the strongest among the three. If he were to travel using spirit power, there would be almost no consumption. The weakest was Ye Lingling, an auxiliary Spirit Master.
The three of them walked and stopped along the way, covering nearly two hundred li in a day. This was with intermittent stops; if they had traveled at full speed, the distance would have at least doubled. However, if they had really done that, besides Shi Quan, Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan would have been exhausted.
Although it was only two hundred li, a carriage could at most cover about one hundred and sixty li a day, so it was still a bit faster than the carriage.
However, walking was not as easy as riding in a carriage; it was more tiring than riding in a carriage. This was a completely different feeling from riding in a carriage.
Along the way, a gentle breeze blew, and there were high mountains and flowing water, giving a feeling of immense comfort. Even Ye Lingling's faint smile became a bit more pronounced after this day.
Beautiful scenery always allows people to relax their mood. After a day, neither Dugu Yan nor Ye Lingling complained about being tired; instead, they particularly enjoyed the scenery along the way.Chapter 73: Duguyan, Kuakuayan
The mountain stream gurgled, the night was serene, and the moonlit tree shadows were dappled.
The flames reflected the figures of the three.
The three, enjoying their journey, chose to camp outdoors, having already prepared their tents.
Gurgle, gurgle, steam rose from the iron pot over the fire, bringing with it wafts of meat aroma.
"It smells so good," Dugu Yan said, sniffing the aroma of the meat and giving Shi Quan a thumbs-up. "Shi Quan, I never thought you could cook. That's amazing."
"It's been so many years since I last cooked, I almost forgot," Shi Quan said with a sigh. "If it doesn't taste good, you'll just have to eat some dry rations for now."
What he said was true; cooking was something Shi Quan did in his previous life. After arriving in Douluo Continent, this was his first time cooking.
"So many years?" Dugu Yan looked at Shi Quan suspiciously and asked, "By your logic, you already knew how to cook when you were six or seven years old?"
"Uh…" Shi Quan awkwardly replied, "Something like that, something like that."
Thankfully, he didn't blurt out that it had been over ten years. Shi Quan hadn't expected to make such a slip of the tongue.
"Alright, hurry and try it," Shi Quan quickly changed the subject, taking out bowls and chopsticks from his snow jade bracelet and serving each of them a full bowl of meat soup.
"It's delicious, and the taste is very unique." Dugu Yan's eyes lit up after just one taste, and she immediately praised it, then looked at Ye Lingling and said, "Lingling, what do you think?"
"It's delicious," Ye Lingling also nodded.
"If it's delicious, eat more. If you like it, I can cook it for you whenever you want in the future," Shi Quan said with a smile. The culinary techniques of Douluo Continent focused more on the original flavor, bringing out the inherent deliciousness of the ingredients to their fullest. If categorized by cuisine, it was somewhat similar to Cantonese cuisine from his previous life.
Shi Quan, in his previous life, was from the southwest, and the cuisine he learned was Sichuan cuisine, which uses more seasonings and has a fresh and savory taste. It was natural for the two of them to find it unique the first time.
"You said that," Dugu Yan nudged Ye Lingling with her shoulder. "Lingling, if you want to eat, just tell Shi Quan. Don't be shy with him."
"Mm." Ye Lingling buried her head, quietly sipping the meat soup in her bowl. A rare glimmer of light gathered in her usually vacant eyes.
Good food and beautiful scenery always soothe the soul.
The three sat around the bonfire, everything beautiful and quiet.
The next few days were the same. Everyone grew to like this stop-and-go feeling. When they were tired, they rested and enjoyed the scenery, living a truly leisurely life.
"At our current speed, we should be close to Shi Family Village, right?"
"Yes, just a bit further along the mountain range and we'll be there."
Unbeknownst to them, the group had already been out for five days. Only a short distance remained to Shi Family Village, and Shi Quan's longing for home reached its peak.
"About right, we should make it back for lunch," Shi Quan said, touching the snow jade bracelet on his wrist, which was filled with gifts he had brought for Shi Jian and Li Meili.
Soon, the three could see the village in the distance, with smoke slowly rising from its chimneys. That was Shi Family Village.
With home in sight, Shi Quan's mood involuntarily became excited, and his steps quickened without him realizing it.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling exchanged glances, activated their spirit power, and quickly followed.
Only when they reached the village entrance did Shi Quan slow down. Shi Family Village was still the same Shi Family Village; after more than a year away, the village hadn't changed much.
As soon as the three entered the village, they attracted a lot of attention. It was close to mealtime, and most people were sitting idly in their courtyards, curiously observing the trio. In particular, their attire, compared to the villagers' clothes, looked very valuable and seemed so out of place.
"Uncle Shi, haven't eaten yet?" Shi Quan greeted a man in a nearby courtyard as he walked by.
Hearing Shi Quan's voice, the man was visibly startled, then somewhat flustered, he stood up and looked at Shi Quan, asking uncertainly, "You are?"
"It's Shi Quan, don't you recognize me?"
"Shi Quan?" The man paused, then reacted, his eyes widening. "You're Shi Quan?"
"Mm."
The man exclaimed, "More than a year without seeing you, how did you grow so much all of a sudden, kid?"
"The academy's food is pretty good," Shi Quan said with a smile, waving his hand. "I'm heading home now, we'll chat later."
"The villagers here are quite simple. That Uncle Shi usually has the best relationship with my dad. When my dad goes to Nuoding City, he usually goes along."
Shi Quan introduced them as they walked.
"My house is up ahead," Shi Quan said, pointing to the wisteria-covered fence courtyard.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back from the academy!" As soon as he got close, Shi Quan excitedly shouted towards the courtyard.
Normally, they had never seen Shi Quan so excited. Even when facing Sword Douluo, Shi Quan could maintain a calm and steady demeanor. This was the first time they had seen Shi Quan so agitated.
"Follow me," Shi Quan called out, leading the two quickly into the courtyard.
Hearing the shouts from outside, two people immediately walked out of the house.
It was Shi Jian and Li Meili. Both were clearly startled when they saw Shi Quan, but they quickly reacted. Li Meili hurried forward and tightly embraced Shi Quan, her eyes a little red as she said, "Shi Quan, you're finally back. Mom missed you so much."
Shi Jian also stepped forward and patted Shi Quan's shoulder, saying, "It's good that you're back."
"I missed you too," Shi Quan said, embracing Li Meili tightly.
Shi Jian patted Li Meili's shoulder, indicating, "Alright, Meili, Shi Quan brought guests back."
"Isn't it because Shi Quan is back? I'm just too happy!" Li Meili wiped her moist eyes and looked at the two girls behind Shi Quan, her eyes immediately lighting up. She quickly asked, "Shi Quan, who are they?"
"Mom, they are both my Senior classmates. They're on holiday with nothing to do, and since staying at the academy is just staying, they came back with me to play."
"This is Dugu Yan, I usually call her Sister Yanzi."
"This is Ye Lingling, I call her Lingling."
"This is my mom, Li Meili, and this is my dad, Shi Jian."
"Hello, Uncle and Auntie. You can just call me Du Gu Yan," Dugu Yan immediately said, presenting a gentle and adorable demeanor.
"Hello, Uncle and Auntie. You can just call me Lingling." Perhaps out of politeness, Ye Lingling specifically removed her veil.
"Good, good, good." Li Meili happily wiped her hands on her clothes, then went forward, took the two girls' hands, and led them into the house. "You two sit down first. I didn't know you were coming, so Auntie will go make some more food for you."
"Mom, no need to go to so much trouble." As he spoke, Shi Quan took out some cold dishes from his snow jade bracelet and placed them on the table.
He also took out all the gifts he had brought back for them.
"Shi Quan, where did you get all these things?" The two stared at the pile of items on the floor, speechless.
"They're all from the snow jade bracelet," Shi Quan said, shaking the snow jade bracelet on his hand, explaining to the two, "This snow jade bracelet is a type of space spirit tool. Simply put, there's a very large space inside this bracelet where I can store things and take them out when needed."
"Such a thing must be very precious, right?" Li Meili asked in surprise.
"Not really, this bracelet was given to me by a Senior."
Shi Jian frowned and asked, "Such a precious item, just given away like that?"
"That Senior asked for my help and just gave it as a side gift. Dad, you don't need to worry."
Dugu Yan seized the opportunity to chime in, "Uncle, Shi Quan is right. He's really amazing at the academy, even my grandfather likes him a lot."
Shi Jian smiled and said, "That's good. Uncle was just worried this kid would get wild once he left home."
"Uncle, don't worry, Shi Quan is very diligent at the academy. Not only does he Cultivate diligently, but he also studies hard, especially in Spirit theory, he's super good. He's not just a student at the academy now, he also teaches us Cultivation with our teachers."
"Shi Quan can teach people now?" Li Meili said in surprise.
"That's right, Auntie. The academy teachers also praise Shi Quan's theories endlessly. The academy's Education Committee specifically asked him to guide us in Cultivation."
Dugu Yan directly transformed into a praise Incarnation, constantly talking about how good and amazing Shi Quan was, making Li Meili and Shi Jian beam with joy.
Shi Quan, the person being praised, was a bit embarrassed himself and quickly interrupted, "Mom, let's eat first, let's eat first."
Li Meili quickly patted her head and said, "Du Gu Yan, Lingling, you two wait a moment. Auntie will go bring out the dishes first."
"Auntie, I'll help you." Dugu Yan stood up to help, but Li Meili immediately stopped her, "No need, no need, you sit, you sit. Chat with your uncle and Shi Quan."
"Then we'll trouble Auntie."
"No trouble, no trouble at all. You coming makes Auntie happy, how could it be trouble?" Li Meili quickly waved her hand and walked towards the kitchen.
"Sister Yanzi, come, come, drink some water first, drink some water. You must be thirsty after talking so much," Shi Quan quickly got up to pour her water, hoping she would shut up for a bit.
"I'm not thirsty." Dugu Yan smiled slyly and looked at Shi Jian with a chuckle, "Uncle, you don't know, that Senior who gave Shi Quan the bracelet even sent his daughter to Shi Quan. She's a little beauty too."
Shi Jian looked at Dugu Yan and the other girl, then at Shi Quan, and after secretly giving Shi Quan a thumbs-up, he seriously asked, "Shi Quan, what kind of favor did you do for someone that they sent their daughter to you?"
Shi Quan's face darkened as he quickly explained, "Dad, don't listen to Sister Yanzi talking nonsense. That Ning Rongrong is just following me to learn Cultivation, it's the same as teaching them Cultivation. Uncle Ning, who is the Senior who gave me the snow jade bracelet, he only sent his daughter because of my deep research in Spirit theory. There's no other meaning."Chapter 74 Tang San, Tang San
"What are you talking about? You sound so happy." Li Meili asked curiously as she brought the dishes to the table.
"Auntie, we're talking about someone giving their daughter to Shi Quan."
"What?!" Li Meili immediately glared at Shi Quan with a fierce look.
"Mom, let me explain..."
At the dinner table, everyone was chatting and laughing, but Ye Lingling seemed very unaccustomed to such an atmosphere. She sat quietly beside Dugu Yan, forming a stark contrast with the cheerful Dugu Yan.
"Lingling, if there's anything you're not used to, just tell Auntie. Come, eat more," Li Meili said gently to the silent Ye Lingling, actively serving her a lot of food.
"Thank you, Auntie," Ye Lingling looked at the dishes in her bowl, a little flustered, and her eyes were a bit red.
"Auntie, don't worry, Lingling just doesn't like to talk much. She's not uncomfortable," Dugu Yan gently patted Ye Lingling's shoulder, helping her out.
"That's good, that's good," Li Meili said with a laugh, "Come, eat more."
Li Meili also didn't show favoritism and served Dugu Yan some food as well.
After dinner.
Li Meili and Shi Jian went to help Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling tidy up their room for rest. Fortunately, there was an empty room prepared in the house.
"Lingling, what's wrong?"
During dinner, Shi Quan felt that Ye Lingling's state was a bit off.
"Nothing," Ye Lingling shook her head.
"If you have anything, you can tell us directly. Sister Yanzi and I will help you."
Ye Lingling looked at Shi Quan, a different light flashed in her empty eyes, then gradually dimmed. "I know."
Shi Quan had always known that Ye Lingling was hiding something. From her reaction now, it seemed to be related to her family, but Shi Quan didn't know the specifics.
"Should I ask Xue Qinghe to investigate after we go back?" Shi Quan thought to himself as he looked at Ye Lingling's retreating figure.
In the following days.
In the mornings, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling would still Cultivate with Shi Quan. In the evenings, they would Cultivate. Although it was a holiday, Cultivating was a matter of progress or regression, so they couldn't fall behind.
In the afternoons when there was nothing to do, Li Meili loved to pull the two girls into conversation, while Shi Quan was the one who got neglected.
Ye Lingling also seemed to gradually get used to this atmosphere, a few more smiles appeared on her lips, and her eyes were no longer as empty as before.
A week later.
Outside Nuoding City.
Dugu Yan looked at the tall Nuoding City and commented, "Is this Nuoding City? It looks so small."
"It certainly can't compare to Heaven Dou City," Shi Quan said with a smile.
"Notting Academy should also be on holiday, just like Heaven Dou Academy, right? Your teacher shouldn't be at Notting Academy now, should he?"
"I don't know either. I've never gone to find him during the holidays before, but you don't have to worry. Even during the holidays, there are people on duty at the academy. We'll just ask when we get there."
Shi Quan led Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling into Nuoding City.
He came to Nuoding City to visit Dean Marde and also Grandmaster.
"Anyway, it's still early, why don't we stroll around the city first?" Dugu Yan looked at the bustling streets, and her shopping Spirit began to burn.
"Sure, and we can book a hotel first."
Before coming to Nuoding City, Shi Quan had told his parents that he would stay in Nuoding City for one night before returning, because he had some matters to deal with in the evening.
Shi Quan wasn't actually familiar with Nuoding City. During his four years of study there, most of his time was spent shuttling between the academy and the mountain behind the academy. He really hadn't seriously explored Nuoding City.
After less than half an hour of strolling, Shi Quan didn't expect that he would actually run into an acquaintance.
"Little San, I want to eat that, hurry..." A girl's excited voice came.
The distinctive black long hair in a scorpion braid and a belt inlaid with twenty-four jade stones around the other person's waist—Shi Quan knew the identities of these two without even seeing their faces.
Nuoding City wasn't that big, but it wasn't small either. To meet them by chance like this, one had to admit it was truly fate.
"Shi Quan, let's go try it too. Look how excited that girl is; it must taste good," Dugu Yan said, pointing to Xiao Wu's location.
"No problem," Shi Quan nodded with a smile. In his current appearance, Tang San definitely wouldn't recognize him, and even if he did, Shi Quan didn't need to avoid them.
It was a pastry shop, and there were quite a few people queuing in front. People loved to join in the fun; seeing many people buying, they would curiously want to try it too. Dugu Yan had this kind of psychology.
The three followed Xiao Wu and Tang San, so they happened to be queuing right behind them.
"With so many people, the taste shouldn't be bad," Dugu Yan curiously poked her head to look inside, then pulled Ye Lingling beside her. "Lingling, let's each get one. Shi Quan's treating."
"Sister Yanzi, are you short on that much money?" Shi Quan shook his head and chuckled.
"It feels different, don't you understand?" Dugu Yan poked Shi Quan's head and glared at him.
Tang San heard the voice behind him and subconsciously turned to look. When he saw Shi Quan, his gaze clearly paused for a moment, then quickly fell on Dugu Yan, and then his brows furrowed imperceptibly. He seemed to have noticed something, and he pulled Xiao Wu forward, moving a little further away from Dugu Yan.
The three of Shi Quan were chatting and didn't notice Tang San's small actions, or rather, Shi Quan didn't care about Tang San at the moment.
After buying and paying for their food, the three of Shi Quan continued their stroll.
Not far away, Tang San looked back at the direction Shi Quan had left, with a puzzled expression.
"What's wrong, Little San?" Xiao Wu asked, eating the delicacy in her hand.
"I feel like that person just now was a bit familiar, as if I'd seen him somewhere. It's the man who was standing behind us just now."
Xiao Wu's eyes moved, and she said, "The one who's a little handsome?"
Tang San rolled his eyes and said somewhat helplessly, "Yes."
Xiao Wu thought for a moment, eating as she spoke, "I feel a bit familiar too."
"You feel it too?" Tang San became even more puzzled, and at the same time, he said, "They should all be Spirit Masters. One of the women even has a faint smell of poison on her. Their strength shouldn't be weak."
"Poison?" Xiao Wu looked at Tang San, "How did you smell it? I didn't smell anything."
Tang San said with a faint smile, "Your nose is too busy smelling delicious things, so of course you wouldn't smell it."
"Hmph!" Xiao Wu angrily turned her head and walked in the opposite direction. Tang San shook his head indulgently and quickly hurried to catch up.
On the other side, while strolling, the three of Shi Quan saw a exquisitely decorated hotel and immediately booked a room.
After lunch, seeing that it was about time, the three then headed towards Notting Academy.
The tall arched iron gate was tightly shut, with only a small side door open. The young man guarding the gate was the same young man who had extorted money from his parents back then. The young man's eyes were slightly closed as he dozed off. Hearing the movement, he lazily got up and looked at the three.
After clearly seeing the appearance and attire of the three, the doorman immediately stood up and respectfully said, "Do the three of you have something to do at Notting Academy?"
Shi Quan asked, "I used to be a student of the academy. This time I've returned to visit Dean Marde. I wonder if the Dean and the others are at the academy?"
"Oh, so it's a former student of the academy." The doorman immediately showed a fawning smile and said, "Three sirs, Dean Marde hasn't been living in the academy since the holiday. If you want to visit the Dean, you can go to XX Street, XX Villa to find him."
"Got it." Shi Quan didn't expect such a small doorman to know Marde's address. No wonder he dared to extort those work-study students who had just joined the academy.
"By the way, is Yu Xiaogang still at the academy?" Shi Quan, who had already turned to leave, suddenly turned back and asked.
"Grandmaster?" The young man nodded and said, "Grandmaster has always been at the academy."
"That's good," Shi Quan thought to himself.
He turned and left with the two girls.
Fate really is a strange thing. Before the three of Shi Quan had walked far, they happened to run into Tang San and Xiao Wu returning.
"What a coincidence, it's them again. They should be students of Notting Academy, right? Shi Quan, don't you know them?" Dugu Yan looked at the departing figures of Tang San and Xiao Wu.
"Know them? Of course I know them. The boy is called Tang San, his Spirit is Blue Silver Grass, and the girl is called Xiao Wu, her Spirit is Soft Bones Rabbit. Both of them have Innate full spirit power. They are very famous people in the academy!" Shi Quan said with a smile.
"Both have Innate full spirit power?" Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling both looked at Shi Quan in surprise.
Shi Quan said with a laugh, "That's right, both have Innate full spirit power. Innate full spirit power is rarely seen in a hundred years, and two appeared here at once. Didn't expect that, did you?"
Dugu Yan said, "Not only are there two Innate full spirit power users, but the key is that Notting Academy also produced a Genius like you. I'm starting to wonder if Notting Academy has some kind of magic that gathers all of you here."
"Can Blue Silver Grass also have Innate full spirit power?" Ye Lingling suddenly spoke.
"His Blue Silver Grass is not ordinary Blue Silver Grass. When he used his Spirit in front of me before, I could feel a sense of oppression from a superior. I speculate that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass should possess some special Bloodline, it's just that this Bloodline hasn't Awakened yet."
"And Tang San..." Shi Quan looked around and didn't continue speaking, lowering his voice, "Let's talk about it when we get back."
He skipped this topic.
...
"Little San, it's them again. They seem to be coming from the direction of the academy."
"We'll ask the doorman in a bit," Tang San said after looking back. He then withdrew his gaze and went to inquire at the doorman's post, only then learning that the three were looking for Dean Marde.
"So they were former students of the academy. Maybe I saw them unintentionally before."
Tang San and Xiao Wu didn't think much of it.
On the other side.
Following the location indicated by the doorman, Shi Quan finally found Marde. Shi Quan's arrival also gave Marde a surprise..Chapter 75: Golden Holy Dragon Bloodline
After having dinner at Marde's house, Shi Quan and the others left late at night.
Back at the hotel, they each returned to their rooms, but Shi Quan didn't immediately Cultivate.
System space.
Shi Quan's gaze fell on the Illusion Mask.
"Extract Illusion Mask."
A mask shimmering with silver light appeared in Shi Quan's hand. The mask was primarily silver, covered with faint white patterns, looking elegant but not extravagant. The mask's feel in hand wasn't the texture he imagined; instead, it was soft.
Holding the mask, Shi Quan came before a mirror and immediately put the Illusion Mask on his face. As the Illusion Mask touched Shi Quan's face, it quickly emitted a silver glow. With the shimmering light, it perfectly conformed to Shi Quan's face.
Shi Quan touched the mask on his face; there was no discomfort. He couldn't even feel that he was wearing a mask. After the Illusion Mask fit onto Shi Quan's face, some specific functions and usage methods of the Illusion Mask also appeared in his mind.
Under the shimmering silver light, the Illusion Mask gradually disappeared, revealing Shi Quan's original appearance. Shi Quan touched his face. The Illusion Mask hadn't hidden; instead, it had integrated into his body like a Magic Treasure.
"This Illusion Mask is quite convenient. It's a bit similar to an external Spirit Bone."
With a thought, the Illusion Mask reappeared. "Let's try changing into someone first."
A smile appeared on Shi Quan's lips. The Illusion Mask immediately emitted a silver glow. As the light flowed, a burning sensation surged from within his body. Shi Quan watched as his appearance and figure in the mirror began to change rapidly.
The next second, the figure of 'Tang San' appeared in the mirror.
"What a wondrous feeling…"
Shi Quan looked at himself in the mirror, transformed into 'Tang San,' and a hint of playfulness appeared in his eyes.
However, he quickly became alert. Within a year, the most likely time for Tang Hao to visit Tang San was during holidays. If he went out with this appearance, something might go wrong.
His appearance changed again, and 'Peng Yuyan' of Douluo made a dazzling appearance.
"Handsome!"
Shi Quan touched his chiseled jawline and nodded in satisfaction.
"But compared to me, he's still a bit lacking."
As he whispered, the illusory figure of the Ling Po Martial Soul Spirit appeared, and Shi Quan's figure also became illusory. At the same time, the Illusion Mask completely concealed Shi Quan's aura.
"A Meng, scan the surroundings for me. If there's any unusual aura, be sure to remind me immediately."
"No problem."
Under the cover of night, Shi Quan's figure directly passed through the hotel wall and floated towards Notting Academy.
After spiritualization, Shi Quan could not only pass through most objects and was unaffected by gravity, but while flying, the cold wind in the air would not affect him either. The energy consumed for flight was not spirit power but mental force, and the consumption was extremely low, almost negligible.
Soon, Shi Quan saw the familiar Notting Academy in the distance. As he approached Notting Academy, Shi Quan slowed down and landed on the ground. He was like a ghost, blending into the night.
Passing through the high walls and entering the academy, his Spirit Sense spread out, but he didn't find any special auras.
Cautious, Shi Quan didn't continue to advance rashly. He released the Ling Po Martial Soul Spirit from possession, and the earthy yellow Thick Earth Spirit emerged. The Spirit merged into the ground, and Shi Quan sat cross-legged on the ground. After carefully sensing again with the help of the earth's power and confirming there were no special auras.
Only then did Shi Quan allow the Ling Po Martial Soul Spirit to possess him again and sneak towards the dormitory building.
Tang Hao must be very familiar with the aura of Blue Silver Grass, so Shi Quan didn't dare to use the Blue Silver King Spirit. He could only try his best to use the power of the other two Spirits to investigate.
Shi Quan knew the Grandmaster's dormitory location very well. Through the windows, Shi Quan could see that the Grandmaster's dormitory light was still on, so he probably hadn't slept yet.
Passing through the wall, Shi Quan arrived at the dormitory he used to live in. More than a year had passed, and his old room still looked the same as when he left. It seemed that Marde hadn't arranged for any other teachers to live in this room during the past year.
Looking at the empty room, Shi Quan couldn't help but feel a bit emotional.
He began to wait quietly in the room.
The Grandmaster's room was two rooms away from Shi Quan's room, not far at all. Shi Quan's Spirit Sense had been constantly probing the situation inside the Grandmaster's room.
After about another half an hour, the Grandmaster finally turned off the light and went to bed to rest.
In the room on the other side, Shi Quan also slowly opened his eyes at this moment, and his figure slowly floated towards the Grandmaster's room.
The first spirit ring on his body lit up with a faint glow. Dream Ripple enveloped the Grandmaster. The Grandmaster, who was already preparing to rest, only felt a wave of sleepiness come over him and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Looking at the sleeping Grandmaster, a faint smile appeared on Shi Quan's lips. A blood-red, crystal-like hexagonal object reappeared in Shi Quan's hand.
It was the Bloodline Extractor.
The Bloodline Extractor had many restrictions, and Shi Quan wasn't sure if he could extract Bloodline from a corpse. After much thought, it seemed that only the Grandmaster, who was relatively weak but possessed a powerful Bloodline, was suitable.
The Grandmaster's Spirit Luo San Pao possessed the Golden Saint Dragon Bloodline, also known as the Sacred Dragon. If he remembered correctly, the original work's description of the Golden Saint Dragon Bloodline was mixed.
In the early stages, according to the original work of Douluo Continent.
When Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and Liu Erlong used their Spirit Fusion Skill to fight Dugu Bo, it was clearly stated that Luo San Pao's mutation was towards a higher Rank of Dragon.
The Golden Triangle's Spirit Fusion Skill actually amplified the evolved Bloodline within Luo San Pao, allowing it to temporarily possess some abilities of the Sacred Dragon.
Therefore, according to the description in Douluo Continent, the Golden Saint Dragon, which is the Sacred Dragon Bloodline, is more Advanced than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Bloodline.
Moreover, the original work even pointed out that the Sacred Dragon was the king of all Dragons. These were deeply ingrained in his mind.
But he had seen discussions online that the Sacred Dragon Bloodline was not as strong as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Bloodline in the Late Stage, regardless of whether it was a setting issue for now.
If one had to find a reasonable explanation, it could only be said that as the energy Rank of the Douluo Continent increased, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Bloodline continuously improved over time due to the influence of energy.
And the Golden Saint Dragon Bloodline, due to its special nature, was not passed down and gradually disappeared into the river of history, gradually being caught up by the weaker Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Bloodline.
Bloodline strength, to put it plainly, means the stronger the strength, the stronger the Bloodline. As more and more powerful individuals with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit emerged, the Bloodline strength naturally increased.
What is a Divine Rank Bloodline? Isn't it the Bloodline of ordinary people who have Cultivated to become gods?
Regardless of what happens later, according to the Douluo Continent original work rewarded by the System, the Grandmaster's Golden Saint Dragon Bloodline is definitely one of the top Bloodlines among Beast Spirits at present.
Moreover, the Dragon Bloodline has a very special meaning in the World of Douluo Continent. The Dragon God, the highest Rank Dragon God Bloodline, is not only the strongest deity in the God Realm, but the Dragon Clan is also the co-lord of all Spirit Beasts. The Dragon Clan Bloodline has absolute oppressive power over Spirit Beasts, and its development potential is definitely the greatest.
Looking at the Grandmaster who had completely fallen into a deep sleep.
Shi Quan held the Bloodline Extractor in his hand and was about to extract the Bloodline when he suddenly thought of something, and his opened mouth paused.
The Bloodline Extractor's note stated that it extracts the specified Bloodline from the target's body according to the host's request.
It didn't say that the specified Bloodline had to be named.
"Extract the strongest Bloodline from Yu Xiaogang's Spirit."
The next second, the Bloodline Extractor once again bloomed with a blood-red light. The light quickly enveloped Yu Xiaogang, slowly merging into Yu Xiaogang's body.
"It really works!"
Looking at the golden light slowly overflowing from Yu Xiaogang's body, Shi Quan's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.
He had only intended to try, but he didn't expect it to actually work.
Since the book was contradictory, he might as well let the Bloodline Extractor judge. He was a little curious whether the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Bloodline or the Golden Saint Dragon Bloodline was stronger.
As the golden light continuously overflowed from Yu Xiaogang's body, Yu Xiaogang, in his sleep, seemed to sense something and began to struggle. His stiff cheeks frowned tightly.
Seeing this, Shi Quan's Internal Energy surged rapidly, continuously injecting into his first spirit ring. The drowsiness stimulated by Dream Ripple continuously increased, and soon, the struggling Yu Xiaogang fell into a deep sleep again.
"Even Yu Xiaogang, this guy, can react. If it were a stronger person or Spirit Beast, it would be even harder to deal with." Shi Quan thought to himself, constantly paying attention to Yu Xiaogang's state.
As time passed, the blood-red crystal in mid-air, after absorbing the golden light spots, gradually turned golden-yellow. Seeing this, Shi Quan already had a result in his mind.
The process lasted for about fifteen minutes. The blood light gradually receded, and the original blood-red crystal had now completely turned golden-yellow. Through sensing, Shi Quan could feel the Sacred aura within it.
No need to guess, it must be the Bloodline of the Sacred Dragon.
If he couldn't be sure by sensing alone, the System's words shouldn't be false.
The Bloodline Extractor in his hand disappeared, entering the System space.
The original Bloodline Extractor now had a different name.
Bloodline Crystal: A Bloodline Crystal formed by extracting and absorbing the Sacred Dragon Bloodline.
Note: The crystal contains the Bloodline of the Sacred Dragon. The crystal can be used for forging, Fusion, and absorption. The Bloodline Power cannot be absorbed casually; the Bloodline will impact the absorber, and if the Bloodline is incompatible, it will cause negative effects.
Looking at the note for the Bloodline Crystal, Shi Quan couldn't help but sigh softly. He hadn't expected the situation he had predicted to actually occur; Bloodline and Spirit were not the same concept.
According to the note, he certainly wouldn't rashly absorb the Sacred Dragon Bloodline from the Bloodline Crystal. However, he was very interested in this forging and Fusion. According to the note, could he use this Bloodline Crystal to forge a Divine Artifact-like existence, or merge it into certain items to make them transform?
For example, Spirit Bone…
"It seems I need to plan the use of this thing carefully."
Shi Quan looked at the Bloodline Crystal in the space, deep in thought, and his figure slowly disappeared from the room…
