Chu Mo was startled by the voice, his whole body tensed up instantly. Heaven Slaying appeared in his hand, radiating a cold light.
At this mont, a light gradually took shape before Chu Mo, slowly coalescing into a humanoid figure. Finally, it beca more and clearer, and the image of a middle-aged man materialized before Chu Mo.
This middle-aged man looked quite ordinary, the kind that got lost in a crowd when he turned around. He was extraordinarily commonplace, so indiscernible that no feature could be singled out.
"Who are you?" Despite the man's ordinary appearance, Chu Mo remained cautious, staring at the sudden intruder with suspicion, he coldly asked.
"? I am the mysterious man you beings refer to or... the Realm Spirit." The man's extrely average face showed a faint smile as he looked at Chu Mo.
"What?" Chu Mo gasped, then imdiately looked at the middle-aged man with disbelief glowing in his eyes. He found it hard to believe this ordinary-looking middle-aged man was telling the truth.
"Mysterious man... Realm Spirit?" Chu Mo stamred, "Isn't it said that the mysterious man never speaks?"
"Who told you that?" The middle-aged man's eyes flashed with amusent, "What is there to say to inferior creatures like you?"
"Inferior creatures..." Chu Mo's mouth twitched, he forced a smile and said, "If they are inferior creatures, what am I?"
"You are naturally countless tis superior to them!" The middle-aged man spoke lightly, "But, I suggest you refrain from revealing anything about the strength of your bloodline for now."
"I don't have any information to reveal," Chu Mo replied.
"The power contained in your bloodline is so imnse that even the jade pedestal can't bear it. You may not realize or understand what this ans now. However, if this information gets out, your life won't be so smooth sailing." The middle-aged man looked at Chu Mo, his voice calm but his words astonishing.
"Why?" Chu Mo looked at the man, feeling very strange inside.
Not only about what the middle-aged man said, but Chu Mo was also extrely curious about the man himself, his mind filled with questions.
"Because your bloodline can incite intense envy among all the powerful creatures. Once they find out, they will stop at nothing to find you and… refine you! Even if you currently cannot extract a single drop of essence blood, they still wouldn't let you off the hook," the middle-aged man said indifferently.
"And you?" Chu Mo shivered involuntarily, looking at the man and asked.
"? I would never hurt you no matter what," the middle-aged man assured him.
"I don't understand," Chu Mo frowned.
"You will understand eventually." The middle-aged man's gaze towards Chu Mo beca soft.
Then, with a wave of his hand, the crushed jade pedestal was restored to its original state amidst a glow.
Chu Mo watched stunned, not daring to believe his own eyes.
"With your talent, if you claid to have a red, orange, or even green bloodline... few would believe you." The middle-aged man looked at Chu Mo, speaking lightly, "How about this, I will help you fake a lower-ranked blue bloodline strength, so you can barely make it to the strongest bloodline list. You can choose to stay anonymous... that way, your friend won't suspect you."
"Are you saying, you're going to help cheat?" Chu Mo's eyes widened, he stared incredulously at the middle-aged man, "Are you really the mysterious man from their tales? Are you the Realm Spirit of this illusionary realm?"
"Don't be surprised. You will understand why later. But for now, I will only help you with this," said the middle-aged man, looking at Chu Mo earnestly, "That is, to conceal your bloodline strength. For other matters, you have to rely on yourself. I won't favor you or help you with anything else."
"But this... is already incredible…" Chu Mo murmured and then looked up at the ordinary-looking middle-aged man, "Can't you tell why?"
The middle-aged man shook his head.
"Is my bloodline strength... really powerful?" Chu Mo asked.
"It's not just powerful," said the middle-aged man.
Chu Mo was startled.
The man added, "It's the most powerful!"
"..." Chu Mo was left speechless.
The middle-aged man looked deeply at Chu Mo, "But it's also a taboo, you can't let anyone know about this."
"I don't even know what's going on," Chu Mo muttered under his breath.
"Just rember not to ntion anything that happened here today to anyone," advised the middle-aged man, "Even the supre ones won't be able to see through your bloodline."
"..." Chu Mo did not reply, he took a deep breath, then nodded, "I understand."
"That's good, now, you can make your choice." Having said that, the figure of the middle-aged man disappeared instantly from Chu Mo's sight.
"Choice?" Chu Mo was just about to voice his confusion when he found himself alone in the empty room, all that occurred earlier felt like a dream or an illusion.
The jade pedestal lay there intact, but the middle-aged man... had vanished without a trace.
"What's going on here?" Chu Mo tried to adjust his wide-eyed stare as he looked puzzlingly around the room.
At that mont, an announcent echoed in his divine sense – "Lower-ranked blue bloodline strength. Eligible to be ranked 76 on the Human Layer's strongest bloodline leaderboard. Please choose whether to disclose."
"Do not disclose!" Chu Mo subconsciously conveyed a divine sense ssage.
"Please choose whether to anonymously disclose, or completely not disclose. Anonymous disclosure is recomnded."
A ssage surfaced again in Chu Mo's divine sense.
"..." Chu Mo was sweating profusely, now he could finally confirm that the appearance of the middle-aged man was not his imagination.
This kind of humanized prompt was never ntioned by Hu Lie.
"Choose to disclose anonymously." Chu Mo replied.
Then... in the grand halls outside, the sharp-eyed ones who were watching the three leaderboards suddenly noticed a slight change on the 'strongest bloodline leaderboard', which caused everyone to exclaim in surprise.
"The strongest bloodline leaderboard has changed!"
"There's a newcor on the list!"
"Mi Xin, who was last, has been pushed off!"
"Yes, the last one on the strongest bloodline leaderboard used to be Mi Xin, now he's gone, he's been pushed off the list!"
"What's the rank of this person?"
People exclaid in shock, imdiately after which, a cultivator with great recall pointed out that the newcor was ranked 76!
"76, the anonymous one!"
"Yes, it's the 76th one!"
"Based on this rank, he should have a lower-ranked blue bloodline…"
"It's unbelievable, a newcor finally appeared on the unchanging strongest bloodline leaderboard after such a long ti."
"Blue bloodline huh... even if it's low-ranked, it's already very powerful!"
"Looks like... we have a new powerhouse in the Human Layer!"
At this mont, another drastic change occurred on the strongest bloodline leaderboard!
Everyone was astounded beyond words. The 76th place anonymous newcor was instantly forgotten as the first place had a new holder!
There was a new number one! (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit qidian to vote for a recomndation or monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian for reading.)
