Chapter 213: Awakening of the Bloodline! (1/2)

“What?!” The moment the tip of Nie Tian’s finger made contact with the Bone Blood Demon’s foot bone, his eyebrows furrowed.

At that moment, he suddenly had a strong feeling that, as his internal organs worked, the spirit beast meat that he had consumed earlier was now rapidly unleashing wisps of flesh power into every corner of his body.

Normally, he would have this kind of feeling every time he consumed a large amount of spirit beast meat.

However, it felt different this time.

Instead of proceeding to cast the Demon Driving Incantation and trying to establish a connection with the Bone Blood Demon, he retracted his hand and then carefully examined himself with his psychic awareness.

He saw countless wisps of energy swimming out of his stomach towards every part of his body. However, as his heart beat more and more vigorously, all the energy wisps began converging on it.

Before, the essence he had absorbed from spirit beat meat would always have infused into his viscera and every piece of his muscle and flesh to gradually strengthen his body.

And that was the why his fleshy body had always been stronger and tougher than other human Qi warriors his age.

However, it was different this time. The energy that had originated from his internal organs didn’t flow to his muscles or bones, but rather his heart.

Standing next to the Bone Blood Demon’s giant foot, he focused all his attention on finding what had triggered the change.

A wisp of his soul quietly flew into his heart and observed in silence.

He saw numerous wisps of energy flowing in through the walls of his heart from all directions, but what surprised him was that there was a green thread of energy coiled up at the bottom of his heart.

He had no idea when it had been formed and why it was there. He had never noticed it before.

The wisp of his soul floated closer to the coiled green energy, observing and sensing it very carefully.

He sensed the aura of an ancient life within the coiled thread of energy. It could be the concentrated form of life power or the source of a bloodline.

He came to another surprising finding as he furthered his examination.

Within the coiled, green thread of energy lay countless translucent and sparkling blood strings that were as fine as hairs. They interwove with each other and seemed to be brimming with green-colored energy.

If the green thread of energy were a living creature, those sparkling blood strings would be its meridians.

As the wisp of his soul delved even deeper, he discovered that tiny green dots were floating within the crystal-like blood strings.

Each and every one of them shone with bright, green light, as if they were some mysterious symbols that carried the profound truths of blood.

“Bloodline!” Nie Tian’s expression flickered. Then he found that all the wisps of energy that had been attracted by his heart were madly converging and disappearing into the green thread of energy.

The red wisps of energy were flesh power from the spirit beast meat.

However, the moment they entered his heart, the realm of the green energy thread, they seemed to be devoured and ground down into shreds by it.

It wasn’t long before every last wisp of flesh power disappeared into the mysterious green energy thread.

However, it seemed still famished as it started swimming about within his heart like a greedy, mysterious python, foraging for more flesh power.

When it realized that it couldn’t find any new prey, it finally settled down and coiled up again.

It was at that very moment that an intense dizziness struck Nie Tian.

Under the gaze of his soul, the green energy thread suddenly began to shine with dazzlingly green light.

At the same time, the green spots in the sparkling blood strings rapidly shifted into a new alignment.

“Bloodline. Talent. Life Transfer!”

A series of obscure words suddenly appeared in Nie Tian’s mind. They were so clear and unforgettable that it was as if they were branded deeply on his soul.

All of a sudden, his heart started pounding rapidly and the wisp of his soul consciousness was instantly expelled!

Right before his soul consciousness was pushed out of his heart, he saw his heart fill with dazzling green light.

However, it was just a second before the green thread of energy stopped shining and coiled up at the bottom of his heart again, silent and calm.

Even still, the words that had been engraved in his mind just now became increasingly clear and meaningful.

“The life of the bloodline is awakened and I’ve been given another talent, Life Transfer!” Nie Tian seemed to have an epiphany.

Hua Mu had once told him that he was different, and after the Heaven Gate trial, he was increasingly certain that he had a unique bloodline power within his blood.

Perhaps, the reason why it hadn’t showed any signs of life before was that his cultivation base was far too low.

Therefore, due to the recent, rapid advancement in his cultivation base, the power that had been hidden within his bloodline was finally awakened, and Life Transfer was the first talent he obtained after the awakening.

He was still standing next to the Bone Blood Demon’s foot, eyes closed and still, contemplating the first bloodline talent he had obtained.
