When 'God' Decides To Start Over-Chapter 822 - 325: Mystery of the Bloodline (Part 2)
As he absorbed the Divine Light, he shone the Nine Dragon Lamp on the giant turtle, refraining from approaching further, constantly keeping an eye on the turtle’s movements and the state of the Butterfly Contract.
Even if he couldn’t unravel the secret of Light Spirit Unity, merely absorbing the Divine Light was surprise enough.
The Divine Position Level Light Energy was indeed pure and advanced. The portion absorbed into Li Xiu’s body not only supported the consumption of Ultimate Light and Super Bottle Suction but also provided a surplus of Light Energy, rekindling the path of advancement that had been cut off before.
This time, Li Xiu was wiser, not juggling three tasks at once, but channeling all the absorbed Light Energy into the Evil Spirit Token, letting it undertake Spirit Casting first.
If the Evil Spirit Token doesn’t cast spirits first, it will continuously draw Light Energy from Li Xiu himself and the Forbidden Spear. Only after it casts spirits can Li Xiu and the Forbidden Spear stop having their Light Energy extracted. Otherwise, managing all three would require an enormous amount of Light Energy to achieve Spirit Casting advancement.
As Light Energy surged in, the blue humanoid and red humanoid patterns on the Evil Spirit Token grew increasingly brighter, as if about to step off the token.
Previously, the Evil Spirit Token only had the Red and Blue Light Vein Map; in the Super Spirit state, it transformed into red and blue light shadows.
But now an even stranger transformation occurred. On the red and blue light shadows, facial features appeared.
The blue light shadow grinned like a malicious ghost, its eyes slanted, and ears sharp like blades, as if laughing evilly.
The red light shadow’s features were more normal, more gentle, yet still bore an eerie smile.
Light points began lighting up on the bodies of the blue and red light shadows, each point corresponding to a node of the first Light Vein formerly.
When all Light Vein nodes lit up, Light Vein lines appeared between the nodes, reconstructing the Light Vein Map within the light shadows.
As each Light Vein connection formed, the bodies of the blue and red light shadows twisted endlessly, seemingly ready to walk off the Evil Spirit Token.
Li Xiu knew it was the critical moment for the Evil Spirit Token’s Spirit Casting. Success or failure depended on this very moment.
He absorbed Divine Light frantically, injecting it into the Evil Spirit Token. The sinister red and blue light shadows twisted wildly on the token, seeming on the brink of bursting out.
What puzzled Li Xiu was that the Evil Spirit Token was, like himself, entirely like a Light Seed; how could Light Veins still appear on the red and blue light shadows?
This forced Li Xiu to reconsider the function of Light Veins. He previously thought, having transformed into a Light Seed, he no longer needed Light Veins, for his entire body was a Light Vein. What was the point of Light Veins, then? Weren’t Light Veins just containers? His whole body was a container now, what difference did it make whether Light Veins were there or not?
The same was true for the Evil Spirit Token. Yet, in the process of Spirit Casting advancement, it reshaped Light Veins, which was perplexing to Li Xiu.
He kept an eye on both the giant turtle and the state of the Evil Spirit Token.
Suddenly, something dawned on Li Xiu, sending a shiver through him.
"Could it be, that the giant turtle is not of pure Ice Turtle Bloodline, or perhaps not entirely..." Li Xiu entertained a possibility.
The Light Vein Map appeared on the Evil Spirit Token because it originally had a Light Vein Map.
Ordinary Ice Turtles have no blood lines. If the giant turtle belonged to the Ice Turtle clan, it shouldn’t have any blood lines.
But there were blood lines on its body, suggesting it wasn’t purely from the Ice Turtle clan, and a creature with blood lines would be the Glacial Crystal Worm.
This led Li Xiu to speculate the giant turtle might carry the bloodline of the Glacial Crystal Worm.
Whether hybrid or parasitic, the giant turtle certainly carried the bloodline of the Glacial Crystal Worm, which was why the Nine Dragon Lamp was ineffective on ordinary Ice Turtles but effective on the giant turtle.
Recalling the names Nine Dragon Profound Ice Tube and Nine Dragon Lamp, Li Xiu developed new conjectures.
The names of contracts and skills are not given randomly but bear significance; if the Nine Dragon Profound Ice Tube was really meant to illuminate dragons, then is it possible that those weakest magical spirits in the Land of Nine Dragons Profound Ice, the Glacial Crystal Worms, are, in fact, of Dragon Bloodline?
Otherwise, why else would every Glacial Crystal Worm have blood lines, only varying in strength?
Yet the much more powerful Ice Turtle bears no blood lines whatsoever.
Saying those most numerous and weakest Glacial Crystal Worms are actually young dragons seems preposterous.
Would dragons be so weak in their youth? Any magical spirit could prey on them; they were no match, surviving only by hiding beneath the glacier, relying on reproductive capability.
However, if this theory holds, then Li Xiu boldly speculates that the blood lines revealed by the Nine Dragon Lamp are not weaknesses but, in fact, Dragon Bloodline.
Li Qingyi mistakenly thought it was a weakness because the convergence of Dragon Bloodline is the Glacial Crystal Worm’s frailest point.
Much like the legendary dragon’s Reverse Scale, the least tolerated touch, its weakest point.
"If the giant turtle is indeed a hybrid of Glacial Crystal Worm and Ice Turtle, possessing Dragon Veins, then does it have the same weakness? At the convergence of Dragon Veins, where the dragon’s Reverse Scale is..." Li Xiu couldn’t help but pick up the Nine Dragon Lamp, continually illuminating the giant turtle.
Li Xiu opted to absorb Divine Light at close range instead of intending to slay the giant turtle because he knew his strength was utterly insufficient to kill it.
