Chapter 35: THE ANCIENT’S WILL

Long Tao’s body was continuously being forged and cast. The runes were absorbing Qi consistently, and the skins, bones, muscles, and meridians were steadily formed again and again.

It was a bit different from the general 12 forges of death art. The new morph was a qualitative change. Impurities were starting to get cast out of his body. The primary cause of pollutants was Blood tempering art.

If left unchecked, these would cause the downfall of a genius. One generally requires a lot of heaven borne resources and herbs to cast out the impurities.

The accumulated impurities were cast out, while the expansion of his body continued. Long Tao even spat out black blood. Coming to the ancient forbidden land of the Jiao family was worthwhile.

....................

Long Mengchen was currently sitting with closed eyes, absorbing a considerable amount of Qi. All the Qi that she was absorbing was being sucked dry by her blood. Its glow was highly resplendent now.

The bloodline within her body was starting to awaken. The initial fluctuation had already begun.

.....

“I didn’t expect this lass to have such a high-grade bloodline. I can’t put my hands on it but, I am quite sure that this is at least a level 7 bloodline. It is not something that should be found within this small place.”

The puppet too nodded. If the Keeper was saying that this was a grade 7 bloodline than it has to be. Bloodline was divided into various levels.

Although the Crimson Lord world’s real origin was something unfathomable, and they had seen bloodline far tenacious then this but, to find it in this world was something even they didn’t expect.

The artefact kept absorbing the ancient Qi within itself. Even if the mending that was possible with this was over, Long Tao could use the old Qi present here.

Soon the aura in the forbidden land started thinning out. It alerted the elders of the royal Jiao clan too. But when they saw what was going on with Long Mengchen, they decided not to interfere.

.............................

When they experienced her bloodline power, their bloodline shook with fear. It already showed how powerful the origin of Long Mengchen was.

Long Mengchen’s body made a huge sound. As soon this aura was released, the two men who were guarding Long Mengchen had a big smile on their face.

” The miss seems to have finally awakened the bloodline inside her. Her body will now be transformed. I need to report it to the elders.”

Even the Qi King Was surprised that Long Mengchen was able to awaken her bloodline before stepping into the Qi master realm.

He thought of a certain someone, who had told him that his action might provide the necessary inspiration and motivation to the young miss, which would help her in the awakening of her power. It was a huge blessing in disguise, and he was grateful for it.

............................

Long Mengchen’s bloodline finally calmed down as she settled down on the ground and opened her eyes. Her eyes had a sense of frost and serenity in them. He aura now given out by her was that of a distant person.

“I am going to defeat you and take you to our parents. I will make sure to keep my promise to her and my father. It is the last thing I could do for them before leaving this place.”

Long Mengchen knew she could no longer stay at this place with her mother and father. She now has to return to that place.

..................................

Unknown to this, the process going on with Long Tao finally came to an end. His body was shinning like a hot piece of iron. His skin was much brighter than before, and it had a white lustre to it.

His body had grown in size, and his features had turned more mature and manly. The power contained within his body was not imaginable. It was a stacked effect of all the arts he had practised.

His body type can’t be described from the records of the past, as it has never occurred before. Long Tao slowly opened his eyes and felt the miraculous effect brought to his body after he managed to open all the primary meridians. He could feel his body to have qualitatively changed.

.................................

Long Tao tested his power for some time, before wanting to back to concentrate gain into his training.

” After all these years of waiting, finally someone worthy arrived here.”

Long Tao jumped from his seat out of shock and began to verify his surroundings, to find nothing at all.

” You don’t need to look around anymore, boy. You won’t be able to find me, because I am only a remnant will now.”

Long Tao calmed his nerves down and asked in a respectable tone” May I ask who senior is?”

” You have a good state of mind to be able to calm down so soon. Let’s see, and there is another one here who is just as eligible as you are, if not better.”

Long Tao thought about the persons present here and remembered about Long Mengchen. ” But you are more suitable. Good, but we still need to see if you are eligible or not.”

..........................

Strange energy enveloped Long Tao as he was dragged into the core region of the Forbidden land. He reached into the depths near a cave. He suddenly heard a creaking sound, as the rock structure in front of him split, and he was pushed into the interiors.

The place had a den-like structure with the interior having a high condensation of the ancients Qi.

Suddenly the voice of the Keeper was heard, “Ancient Qi pool, this is a great material that can help to mend further some of the damage to the crimson lord world.”

................................

“What you in front of you is the Qi pool that is condensed out of ancient Qi. Its main characteristics come in handy when one practices Body cultivation with this Qi. Boy, could you tell me why I chose you?”

Long Tao was sent into deep thought to reason with himself as to why he has been chosen. What did he have better than Long Mengchen? Although his power is higher, according to the news given by the Keeper, she has already stepped into the Qi child realm.

In terms of skills and techniques, he wasn’t above her yet.

In terms of the martial realm, he is still inferior.

In terms of bloodline, he is inferior too. But then suddenly came the thought of what he recently obtained-his progress in body cultivation. Long Mengchen didn’t have that with her.

Long Tao’s eyes shone with a sparkle.” You seem to have understood the reason. Good. What is the future path you are going to take in body cultivation?”

“Replying to senior, I have decided to simultaneously cultivate in opening my meridians as well as the acupoints.”.

The voice was silent for some time” You do know that it will take a long time.?”

“I do have my ways”.

“Oh, I forgot, what was it called again, that avatar art was it?”.

Long Tao was surprised and immediately contacted the Keeper and was on his guard now. If the voice knew about the origin of avatar art, then this might not be good for him.

” No reason to be on guard boy. Do you think you are the first cultivator of that art in this world? There were people before you. It does give you a lot of benefits and advantages. But it will still take time.”

“What do senior suggest I should do?”

” I am not here to manipulate the path you will walk in. It is for you to choose. All I could do is to shorten the period. Summon all the avatars here. And start cultivating your body in here. You have one month.’

“I will be back by one month and see how much you have progressed. If you can step up to my standards, maybe you can finally inherit my legacy.”
