Path of Absolute Transcendence

Chapter 71: 71. Bloodline



Chapter 71: 71. Bloodline

After checking the formation, Kai realized his mistake.

'I didn't expect drawing a formation line would be this hard.'

The formation requires the cultivator to draw the line with equal energy in all directions. This means Kai must draw the entire formation without altering the energy intensity in a single place.

Such a thing requires precise control over energy.

'Although it is hard, it is doable.'

Kai drew a formation again, but this time he didn't place a formation eye. Instead, he checked the lines.

After finding that there were mistakes in his lines, Kai drew another formation.

After a lot of trial and error, Kai finally learned from his mistakes. He can now draw a formation line without mistakes.

'Phew! The formation path is sure hard, as the rumors say.'

There is a rumor that the formation path is the hardest one to cultivate among the minor paths.

Kai felt that the rumor should be correct based on his observations so far. The patience and control required to successfully draw a formation need a lot of hard work.

After that, Kai placed a formation eye at the center. He injected his Will Power to activate the formation, and the formation lines lit up.

A light appeared on the entire formation, and soon the spirit stone began to provide energy for the function. The surrounding energy gathered around the formation after the activation.

'Finally, I succeeded in creating a formation. Now, it's time to master all the basics.'

Kai decided to master every type of basic formation before trying to create a Tier 2 formation.

'I should try making a defensive formation.'

Kai started drawing the formation lines, this time the patterns were different from the previous ones. Every formation has a different set of patterns and combinations; the patterns and combinations determine the type of formation.

Kai was trying to make a formation to cover the entrance of the tree. He drew the formation with concentration to avoid any mistakes; it took him a little longer since he wasn't familiar with the patterns.

'Finally done it; I hope it doesn't have any errors.' He hurriedly checked the entire formation.

After confirming the formation didn't have any errors, Kai activated the formation by placing a spirit stone on it.

Soon, the formation activated and formed a barrier around the entrance.

"It looks good," Kai muttered in satisfaction.

Kai began to make a lot of formations, and most of them were basic. He didn't even try to create a Tier 2 formation; he wanted to lay a solid foundation for his future formation path.

It will take a lot of time to draw a Tier 2 formation line since the patterns and combinations are more complicated, so laying a proper foundation using Tier 1 is the best thing.

He made a small killing formation, a trap formation, a deception formation, and even a combination of defensive and offensive formations.

During this time, Kai's comprehension of formation dao increases a lot. He learned the essence of formation.

Formation is similar to programming on Earth; after finding the correct method, it is easy to create. Kai even altered some of the patterns in the formation to make it more effective.

The more Kai learned about the formation, the more it made sense to him that the formation was similar to programming. In simple words, the patterns and their combinations act as a code to control the environment.

'Now, it is time for me to make a Tier 3 formation.'

Kai directly skipped Tier 2 formation since it would only waste his time. He needs a Tier 3 formation called an extraction formation to extract energy.

Kai began to draw the formation line, his hands were steady, and the flow of energy didn't even waver a bit.

After just two hours, Kai completed the entire pattern for the formation.

'I can improve my speed.'

Kai took two hours to draw the formation lines because he wasn't familiar with them.

After that, Kai practiced the formation again and again until he could perfectly draw it.

'Now, I can use the energy from the dark dragon to acquire the bloodline power.' Kai thought happily.

He placed a hundred peak-grade spirit stones at each combination and another hundred spirit stones at the center for the formation eye.

The extraction formation won't work for a Tier 4 beast, but Kai made some changes in the formation and increased its input efficiency; now he can extract energy from a Tier 4 beast.

He created a half-tier-4 formation by himself. The extraction is considered a half-step because it isn't capable of extracting energy from a living Tier 4 beast.

He activated the formation by using his Will Power. Then he dragged the dragon's body and placed it near the center.

Kai sat in the eye of the formation. The extracted energy won't be wasted, instead, it will provide energy to the formation for smooth operation.

Kai made this change to further ensure his safety.

With the activation of formation, the blood of the dragon began to float, and it turned into a stream of blood-red energy.

Soon, the dragon was sucked dry by the formation. All the blood turned into energy, and it went inside Kai.

*AHHHH*

Kai screamed due to the sudden invasion; the energy began merging with his bloodstream.

The energy was highly volatile, and it caused a lot of damage to his body, but the merging process continued without any interruption.

'Ah shi*! I didn't expect the energy to be this potent, even after extracting most of it.'

Kai cursed and continued to endure the process. He didn't want to stop it midway and lose all his precious resources.

After a long time, the fusion process was completed.

But a sudden change happened. His body began to enlarge, his nails grew long, and even his backbone started to break.

'Fu**! My body is mutating!'

Seeing the situation getting out of his hands, Kai used his Self Sovereignty ability and controlled the energy.

The mutation was slowly increasing, but with the help of ability, it slowed down, and after a period of struggle, Kai finally won the battle.

His body stopped mutating and returned to its normal appearance in no time.

But he didn't have enough time to enjoy it, as there was a sudden intruder in his tree house.
