"Ancestral Bloodline?" Chu Nan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this na.
When he initially accepted the inheritance of the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra’s cultivation techniques, he knew that this thod had a very powerful martial skill called Desolate Profound Transformation.
But to perform Desolate Profound Transformation, one must absorb the Ancestral Bloodline.
He had not known what the so-called Ancestral Bloodline was, never imagined he would encounter it in the Ancient Wilderness Forest.
Chu Nan’s heart pounded erratically; excitedly, he asked, "Sword Venerable Master, what exactly is this Ancestral Bloodline?"
Kui Guang patiently explained, "Ancient texts record that the Ancestor was the first life born at the ti when the heavens and the earth were created."
"At that ti, there were no martial artists, not even any beings that could be considered people, because they were the oldest existence, possessing the strongest power of the ti, hence were called the Ancestor by the life born later!"
"The Ancestors occupied the world and continuously reproduced; their descendants naturally possessed their bloodline and thus were called Ancestral Bloodline."
"Although pure ancestral lives almost don’t exist in the lower realm, even holding just a trace of Ancestral Bloodline ans one’s aptitude surpasses ninety percent of beings."
Chu Nan was shaken in his heart, not expecting the so-called Ancestral Bloodline to have such a grand origin, tracing back to the creation of heavens and earth!
More astonishing to him was that the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra could harness the Ancestral Bloodline for one’s own use.
For a mont, Chu Nan’s gaze towards the Thunder Tiger from the Earth Plain changed entirely, openly expressing his desire, "If I could absorb its bloodline..."
Kui Guang rcilessly poured cold water on his hopes, "Don’t even think about it; the Thunder Tiger from the Earth Plain is a Yang Wheel Realm Demon Beast, the gap between you and it is far too wide."
Chu Nan sighed helplessly; he was aware that he was being sowhat wishful.
At this mont, the battle between the man in black and the Thunder Tiger from the Earth Plain had reached an intense stage.
The man in black wielded twin hamrs that smashed the heavens and earth, causing the surrounding space to tremble continuously as if it were about to collapse.
The Thunder Tiger from the Earth Plain was not willing to be outdone, shooting arrow-like bolts of thunder that poured down like a thunderstorm, attacking the man in black.
But the man in black’s cultivation was ultimately higher, and the twin hamrs in his hand were not Mortal Martial quality.
"Chaotic War Heaven-Shocking Hamr!"
Wielding the twin hamrs frantically, he shattered the thunder continually, and the final hamr landed on the Thunder Tiger, causing it to scream miserably as its bones shattered, plumting from the sky.
The Thunder Tiger from the Earth Plain closed its eyes tightly, breathing weakly, as if on the verge of death.
The man in black landed beside it but did not kill it, instead advised, "Wait quietly for to pick the thousand-year fire reishi, or I will kill you!"
Seeing that the Thunder Tiger didn’t react, he walked straight towards its nest to pick the thousand-year fire reishi.
At this point, Lin An could no longer restrain himself while hiding and eagerly walked out, laughing, "Uncle Lan, you are incredible! Many elders of the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect can’t handle this Thunder Tiger, but you resolved it in just a few moves."
Hearing Lin An’s voice, the man in black paused slightly; then he turned around and exclaid in shock, "Don’t co out, hurry up and leave!"
"Roar~" The originally unconscious Thunder Tiger suddenly rose and let out a sky-shaking roar.
At this mont, it realized that the man in black had co to snatch the thousand-year fire reishi for this human in front of him!
The fury in its chest drove it recklessly to spit out a thunderbolt, attacking Lin An.
Although severely weakened by the battle, the Thunder Tiger from the Earth Plain was incredibly frail, weaker even than the most ordinary Yang Wheel Realm Martial Artist.
Yet, despite this, it was not sothing Lin An, who was at the Martial Arts Realm, could withstand; this strike was enough to annihilate him!
The man in black hurriedly turned back, but with his mind focused on obtaining the thousand-year fire reishi, he was too far from Lin An to offer any aid.
As Lin An was about to be struck by the thunderbolt, obliterating him, a familiar figure suddenly dashed out.
Chu Nan, stepping with the Soaring Wind Sky-Stepping Technique, drew a trail of residual shadows as he rushed towards Lin An.
He was very close to Lin An, and having already prepared, he finally made it at the mont when the thunderbolt was about to strike Lin An.
Lin An couldn’t even see who it was before being grabbed by Chu Nan.
Just as Chu Nan planned to take Lin An and flee, unexpectedly, the speed of that thunderbolt accelerated once again, leaving him unable to evade.
Boom! Crack!
The thunderbolt struck right on Chu Nan.
The flesh on Chu Nan’s back was ripped open, all his bones and flesh infused with the lightning, as if about to be torn into thousands of fragnts.
The searing pain caused Chu Nan to lose consciousness instantly.
The man in black, arriving just then, roared angrily, "Beast, I will kill you!"
...
Uncertain of how much ti had passed, Chu Nan slowly awakened, opening his eyes to see a big-bearded person looking at him with concern.
And he was lying on Lin An’s lap.
"Chu Nan, you’re finally awake. You scared badly just now!" Lin An couldn’t hide his joy.
Chu Nan abruptly sat up, the sharp pain in his body making him gasp.
He looked around, realizing he was in the Thunder Tiger’s nest.
The man in black approached, marveling, "Though the Thunder Tiger was severely injured, its innate thunderbolt’s power wasn’t small; yet, you survived, truly strange."
Chu Nan endured the pain and said, "Thank you, senior, for saving ."
The man in black waved his hand and said, "I should be thanking you; without you, Lin An would be dead for sure!"
"Seeing a friend in trouble, I should lend a hand, no need for thanks," Chu Nan humbly replied.
At the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect, Lin An was sowhat friendly with him; Chu Nan felt there was a great chance of saving him under those circumstances, so he acted.
Lin An then introduced, "Chu Nan, this is Lin Lan, my uncle. As for my identity, I’ll tell you when the ti is right."
Lin An also wasn’t in great shape; although protected by Chu Nan, he still got slightly burnt, with half of his big beard scorched.
Having long known Lin An’s extraordinary background, now confird, though uncertain whether Lin An was headed to Cyan Profound State Capital or Imperial Capital.
Lin Lan couldn’t help but inquire, "Chu Nan, how do you feel now?"
Chu Nan examined his body; besides so flesh wounds and hidden injuries, everything else was fine, even his back, previously slashed by lightning, had fully healed.
"I’m all right now, senior, don’t worry."
Curiously, Lin An circled Chu Nan, stating with a weird expression, "Really odd, your injuries were so severe at that ti, I thought you were going to die."
"And yet, a few healing elixirs managed to pull you back from danger. Isn’t your recovery speed too fast?"
Chu Nan furrowed his brow; he knew his rapid recovery was largely due to the Treasure Blood, but he couldn’t share this secret, thus explained:
"I recently got a few Blood Bodhi by chance; maybe its power still lingers inside ."
"Perhaps that’s indeed the case; those Blood Bodhi saved your life," Lin Lan said, smiling, without further inquiry.
Then he took out a piece of armor, saying, "This is Spiritual Clarity Battle Armor, a low-grade Spirit Martial. I’ll give it to you as a token of gratitude for saving Lin An."
