Chapter 142: Secret Technique · Blood Descendant
The journey leaving Cloud Mist Basin was not particularly peaceful, but for Zhou Ming, as long as he did not encounter a Professional Beast Tar or a Hunting Corps numbering over a hundred people, they were basically nothing more than Wealth Boys delivering themselves to him.
As a result, he had no choice but to abandon low-value spoils. Even so, he still stuffed a large-capacity backpack full, along with two smaller backpacks.
From a distance, he looked just like a refugee.
As for the Spatial Ring on Zhou Ming’s finger, it had long been unable to store any additional items. Inside were mostly precious resources he had no intention of trading lightly.
When he entered the city gates of Qinghui Base, the hunters coming and going saw Zhou Ming carrying a bag in each hand, with a large pack on his back. A trace of apprehension unconsciously appeared in their eyes.
Even the City Defense Army captain responsible for guarding the gate stared at Zhou Ming for quite so ti, because he was clearly a dangerous individual.
However, the Alliance had its rules. As long as one did not violate fundantal principles, no one could be held legally responsible for slaughter in the wilderness. Thus, the City Defense Army squad leader guarding the gate could only let Zhou Ming enter the base.
After entering the base, Zhou Ming stopped a taxi and went straight to the Hunter Guild.
This ti, when he arrived at the Hunter Guild, no one dared to open their mouth to mock him again.
Three backpacks of different styles, all stained with a pungent sll of blood—anyone could tell that the young man before them was not soone to be trifled with.
After entering the Hunter Guild, Zhou Ming directly asked the staff for a trading room. He was carrying far too many items.
Half an hour later, after several staff mbers finished sorting everything out, the total value of the items Zhou Ming handed over finally had a concrete figure.
“This lord, based on the dicinal materials and Ferocious Beast materials you provided, the total value is thirty-seven million two hundred and fifty thousand. The corresponding contribution points are three thousand seven hundred and twenty-five. Please check whether there are any errors?”
Seeing the list handed over by the staff mber, Zhou Ming rely glanced through it briefly. After confirming that the prices matched his own estimates, he nodded and agreed to the transaction.
A mont later, Zhou Ming received his bank card and Hunter Emblem. He then directly left the Hunter Guild and rented a move-in-ready room nearby.
The Snake Swarm Will had already been perfected. Now, he only needed to construct the corresponding secret technique model. After that, he could find ways to purchase class advancent resources and begin advancing to a Professional Beast Tar.
Ti slowly passed, and the cold winds of November began blowing down from the north.
However, compared to Qinshan Base, Qinghui Base was located farther south, so the chill in the air was not particularly obvious.
Inside an apartnt not far from the Hunter Guild, Zhou Ming was currently sitting cross-legged in his bedroom, his mind fully imrsed in constructing the secret technique model within his Spiritual Sea.
Silver rays of light condensed from Spiritual Power shuttled along special trajectories, slowly outlining a three-dinsional pattern.
If one observed carefully, the secret technique model Zhou Ming was constructing resembled the brain core of an Army Ant Queen.
The silver rays were like golden threads within the brain core, twisting and weaving back and forth. Then, at the core, they began to give rise to profound fluctuations.
As these fluctuations appeared, the nebula within the Spiritual Sea began to alter its rotational trajectory. At the sa ti, the Ironthread Snakes sealed within the nebula also faintly emitted waves of consciousness.
The frequencies of both sides’ fluctuations slowly drew closer, eventually converging toward the sa frequency.
“Si—”
Within the Spiritual Sea, it was as if the hiss of a colossal serpent rang out, like a great bell echoing throughout the entire Spiritual Sea.
When the secret technique model was successfully constructed, the vast nebula ford from the origin of the Spiritual Seed suddenly underwent violent changes.
Specks of starlight shifted like celestial bodies moving in their orbits. Using starlight as scales, a heaven-reaching giant serpent was constructed, coiling within the Spiritual Sea.
One thousand and eight starlights represented one thousand and eight Ironthread Snakes, not a single one missing.
Each Ironthread Snake sealed within the starlight split off a strand of consciousness, which ultimately condensed into a black snake no thicker than a finger.
The white bone phantom ford through Zhou Ming’s ditation sat cross-legged atop the giant serpent. The black snake continuously shuttled through the white bones, eventually transforming into a dark-gold crown upon the skull.
“I am the Snake Swarm Will.”
As Zhou Ming’s declaration resounded, all one thousand and eight Ironthread Snakes imdiately began to hiss.
They were offering their congratulations to the supre sovereign.
At the sa ti, Ironthread Snakes scattered across Blue Star raised their heads and looked toward the direction where Zhou Ming was located.
These ordinary Ironthread Snakes seed to sense the ergence of a great existence, one capable of influencing the entire Ironthread Snake race.
“It finally succeeded.”
Inside the bedroom, when Zhou Ming opened his eyes, a trace of sovereign aura unexpectedly emanated from his body.
Although it vanished in an instant, that aura was incomparably real.
“Although the fragntation of the Spiritual Seed nearly severed my path of advancent, it was also an imnse stroke of fortune.”
Feeling the gains brought about by the successful completion of the Snake Swarm Will plan, Zhou Ming could not help but feel deeply moved.
On Blue Star, the path by which Beast Tars grasped the extraordinary began with ditation and sensing the existence of the Spiritual Sea.
Whether one could sense the Spiritual Sea determined whether one possessed Beast Tar talent.
The next step was to condense a Spiritual Seed. If one’s talent was insufficient, precious resources had to be used as assistance.
The Spiritual Seed possessed uniqueness, representing the Beast Tar’s origin aura. Thus, once implanted into a Ferocious Beast’s consciousness, it would grow using the beast’s spiritual awareness, allowing complete control over the beast without fear of betrayal.
The connection between a Beast Tar and their beast was that intangible Spiritual Thread—one end connected to the beast, and the other to the origin of the Beast Tar’s Spiritual Sea.
The origin of Zhou Ming’s manifested Spiritual Sea was precisely the nebula ford from those one thousand and eight starlights.
The strength of a Beast Tar’s talent represented the quality of the Spiritual Seed, corresponding to the level of Ferocious Beasts they could command.
Due to the influence of the bloodline origin power of lord-level Ferocious Beasts, an Apprentice Beast Tar’s Spiritual Seed could at most be implanted into the spiritual consciousness of a high-tier Ferocious Beast cub.
Then, through continuous class advancents to break spiritual limits, and by enhancing the strength of their beasts, they would gradually grasp power beyond the mundane.
Zhou Ming’s previous self had died from forcibly condensing a Spiritual Seed. When the Spiritual Seed began to shatter along with that death, Zhou Ming transmigrated and accidentally inherited the freshly fractured Spiritual Seed.
Although the Spiritual Seed had not completely vanished, its quality had fallen to the point where it could only command ordinary mutated animals.
According to the current Beast Taming Cultivation System, Zhou Ming’s Beast Taming path should have been severed. Fortunately, he obtained Half-Beastman class advancent materials, thereby opening up a new path.
A path belonging to bloodlines.
The secret technique model Zhou Ming constructed was nad “Blood Descendant,” and it was also the core of the Snake Swarm Will.
It was a special secret technique that ordinary Beast Tars could not master.
It allowed Zhou Ming to ignore the influence brought by the Ironthread Snake bloodline, because the Snake Swarm Will stood above bloodline will.
Moreover, without relying on a Spiritual Seed, Zhou Ming could control ordinary Ironthread Snakes, and he could also help the Ironthread Snakes bound to his Spiritual Seed break through their bloodline limitations.
After breaking through to the Professional Beast Tar rank, Zhou Ming would gain the ability to command the entire Ironthread Snake race. Even if he ordered Ironthread Snakes he had not bonded with to die, they would not resist his will.
He even had the opportunity to command all snakekind and transform into the conceptual embodint of “snake.”
However, to reach that goal, the road he had to walk was still very, very long.
