Hearing Lin Wu's question, the Club Tailed Lizard spoke.
"The Olive Viper King was unable to have any more offsprings." The Club Tailed Lizard stated.
"Why's that?" Lin Wu questioned, wondering if it was because of the reason he had thorough previously as well.
"His bloodline is strange… or rather, yours is too. It is simply too strong for normal beasts to give birth to his offspring. He was additionally restricted by the beasts that could even mate with him.
He thus wandered around and sohow found in my land. He fought , broke my tail, and beat into submission. He then said he wanted to bear his offspring, and I had no other choice but to do it." The Club Tailed Lizard answered..
"So it really was that…" Lin Wu muttered to himself; his assumption had been correct.
He then looked at the Club Tailed Lizard and spoke again, "and what is your land that you speak of?" Lin Wu questioned.
He himself had known about the area from the system's data but wanted to know it from the Club Tailed Lizard itself.
"I co from the great forest from the east of the millennium forest. There are mountains and hills beyond this forest to the east, and then co so plains, after which finally my land start." The Club Tailed Lizard answered.
"And how long does it take for one to go there?" Lin Wu questioned.
"It took us three months to reach this place," The Club Tailed Lizard answered.
"Three months huh… according to that, the Olivie Viper King should have left about six to seven months ago… just around the ti that I had left as well…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Seeing Lin Wu go silent, the Club Tailed Lizard waited for a minute.
"Is that all?" the Club Tailed Lizard asked. "I need to put the eggs in a warm area." She added.
"Sure, you can head off now." Lin Wu permitted.
~shua~
He waved his tail, making runes appear around the Club Tailed Lizard.
"This will take you to a hall where you can stay. The hall will stay warm on its own so you won't need to worry about that part." Lin Wu said as the Club Tailed Lizard teleported away.
Once the Club Tailed Lizard was gone, Lin Wu sighed to himself and looked at the notification that had been hanging at the edge of his vision.
"Alright system, begin the process for the Bloodline upgrade." Lin Wu ordered.

Lin Wu felt his body get heavy and his eyelids close. He instinctively coiled up and closed his eyes before falling asleep. The ambient flow of his body also dimd down considerably and eventually turned dark completely.
It stayed in this state for a few hours before the change started. Different parts of his body would flier occasionally and so parts would get distorted. The change was rather slow and the parts that changed were re fractions of a fraction.
What Lin Wu didn't know was that once he woke up, he would be experiencing a great change, not only in himself but also in the world around him.
***
While Lin Wu entered his slumber, far from the Millennium forest, to the east; a different man woke up from his own.
~Groan~
The man groaned and opened his eyes. His body felt sore and his limbs felt heavy, yet he knew he needed to wake up. He didn't know why, but he felt very anxious and a hint of fear spread through his mind.
The man was in tattered clothes, with most of his torso bare at this point. There were wounds on his body that had healed, but the scars would remain there for a long ti. His face was also a bit rugged and a few scars dressed his face as well.
While he had a handso face before, the scars only added more to his charm. This man was none other than Ji Shirong of course, the person whom with which Lin Wu had traveled as an Immortal weapon.
Lin Wu had healed him and had left him hidden in the cave, as he thought it would be ti to part with him. Since the mission that Shirong was assigned was over, it was ti for him to leave and wait out for the rewards later.
"Where… am I?" Shirong muttered as he looked around.
The area around him was rather dark and only a faint light could be seen coming from one of the sides. He focused his eyes, and they adjusted to the darkness.
~Crackle~
A few sparks appeared around his body, illuminating the area, which allowed him to see that this was a cave.
"How did I get here? No… where was I before this?" Shirong wondered.
A spent a few minutes thinking and then finally all the mories ca rushing back.
"ARGH!" Shirong shouted out in pain as his head felt like it was being split in two.
All the mories and pain he had felt before ca rushing back and forced him to fall unconscious again.
~THUD~
His body fell back on the ground, knocking up so dust. More ti passed and Shirong moved again.
This ti though, he opened his eyes rather calmly and it had a dead look in them.
"I almost died… that skull god… he tried to take over … but what happened after that?" Shirong had managed to link up the mories till here.
But the more he tried to rember, the more difficult it got for him.
'What's this… thing in my mories? It's like a mountain stopping from going ahead.' Shirong thorough to himself.
Having thought of this, he decided to take a different approach. He tried to recall the mories before the end ones and thought a bit more.
"THE IMMORTAL CRYSTAL ARMANT! WHERE IS IT!?" Shirong let out anxiously.
He quickly checked the ring on his hand and took a breath of relief.
