Immortality: Starting with the Fruit of Taiyin

"Earth-grade bloodline, Void Shadow Sparrow."

"The flying sparrow-like demon beasts of the Taixu and Yimu attributes are renowned for their ability to be close to space."

"They are born with four great bloodline talents: 'Escape from Emptiness', 'Empty Shadow', 'Devouring the Universe', and 'Dwelling in the Spirit', with the first and third being the most famous."

"Needless to say, even though it is in the second-tier juvenile stage, with the blessing of the talent 'Escape from Emptiness', the Void Sparrow is equivalent to having a third-tier low-grade 'Minor Teleportation Talisman' that can be activated at any time, and its exquisite control is even better."

"Not only can it travel a hundred miles in an instant, but it can also control the general direction, position, and distance, and automatically smooth out most of the spatial fluctuations during the teleportation, making it impossible for ordinary cultivators to detect or track it."

"The latter is vague. It is said to be just an alternative storage space, but its superior talent has brought about a qualitative change, which is not recorded in ordinary books."

Wang Xuan did not know what the superior bloodline of the Void Shadow Sparrow was.

Even though Xiao Qing has advanced, his soul and mastery of the Dao Fruit are still in the Qi Refining stage, which is no different from when he advanced his bloodline last time.

In this situation, he couldn't even observe the corresponding bloodline chain, let alone understand its origins and trace its roots.

"This is a top-grade earth-level bloodline... Its only drawback is that it is limited by its cultivation level. The second-tier Void Sparrow cannot continuously use 'Escape from Emptiness', especially when it has just advanced to the next tier."

"But considering that the 'Minor Teleportation Talisman' is a strategic resource that even ordinary humans cannot buy, and that the Void Sparrow's teleportation can even break through the spatial blockade of the 'Minor Anti-Air Talisman,' this shortcoming is not a big deal."

"Appearing and disappearing without a trace, vanishing without a trace, that suits my style perfectly."

He nodded in satisfaction, although strictly speaking, the effect of a third-order minor teleportation spell should be even further in terms of teleportation distance.

However, Wang Xuan also knew that the bloodline talent of demonic beasts would become stronger as their cultivation level increased.

Once Xiaoqing advances to the mid-stage of the second tier, the gap between them will be closed; if she advances to the late stage, she will even surpass Xiaoqing.

Moreover, according to the jade slip, this kind of special escape technique of the void type is often not subject to the constraints of formations below the third rank.

Only a third-tier forbidden array, which often stretches for hundreds of miles, can connect with the earth's veins, lock in spiritual energy, and possess a slight ability to anchor itself in the void, preventing cultivators from causing trouble within the array and then escaping using spatial techniques.

Faced with such a blockade, a breaking talisman is needed to temporarily disrupt the local operation of the formation in order to move space away from the center of the formation.

hum...

"Um?"

A faint buzzing sound suddenly rang out, pulling him back to reality. Wang Xuan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

Turning their gaze to the center of the cave, they saw that, accompanied by a slight tremor in the space, the once surging and outward-expanding immense aura of the Void Shadow Sparrow began to slowly subside.

This is a sign that the demon beast has completed its final advancement, but compared to the records in the classics, the fluctuations in its aura are slightly unstable.

Wang Xuan knew why. It was because whether the Dao Fruit was extracted from the bloodline or it was a postnatal ancestral mutation, compared to the innate Earth-grade bloodline, Xiao Qing had undergone an extra transformation from the inside out.

This won't have any permanent consequences, but it will take a considerable amount of time to calm down and adapt.

Of course, correspondingly.

They will inherit some of the abilities they possessed before their bloodline transformation, giving them more supernatural powers than their kind.

"Xiaoqing, how are you feeling?"

After a while, seeing that his breathing was gradually stabilizing, Wang Xuan called out softly.

Before him, the bluebird, which had been dormant for a long time, finally slowly opened its eyes.

From those silver and blue eyes, a captivating aura emanated.

"唳————"

The soft, ethereal murmur echoed endlessly within the cramped cave.

The large bird slightly spread its wings, seemingly somewhat annoyed by the cramped space within this small area.

Seeing this, Wang Xuan reached out and stroked Xiao Qing's feathers, saying with a hint of anticipation in his voice:

"What, do you think this place is too small? I think so too."

"A great demon like you should be soaring through the sky... Come, let me witness your bloodline talent."

"Let's see what wonders this legendary spatial escape technique has."

"Hey——!"

The bird nodded slightly; this was not only Wang Xuan's instruction, but also, having just completed its advancement, the bluebird itself wanted to test its own abilities.

So the wings spread out and fluttered slightly.

The next moment, the void trembled, and an invisible force enveloped the entire cave, yet it did not leave the slightest trace.

……

Meanwhile, outside the cave dwelling, in the core area of ​​Baihefang City.

The grand formation activated, covering the surrounding area and subtly concealing any movement in the area.

The unusual fluctuations in spiritual energy along the Bailan River have persisted for several months.

As a large cultivation market protected by a family that has reached the Core Formation stage, almost every year there are independent cultivators and cultivators from small families in the vicinity who come here to rent cave dwellings and attempt to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.

While there aren't many successes, similar scenes are not uncommon.

Unlike ordinary rogue cultivators who just watched the spectacle, the Lu family of Xuanfu quickly noticed the extraordinary nature of the person who had broken through.

"That's about it... the advancement is practically a done deal."

"Look at this scene, it is magnificent and imposing, with a steady and composed aura, but it is not quite as harmonious as it seems."

"According to the clan's records, this should be the result of a person who has accumulated extremely deep high-grade bloodline and struck the foundation building stage. With the right timing, location, and people, the person experienced a reversion to their ancestral form and underwent a mutation, resulting in the formation of a low-grade bloodline... It has to be said, this person is truly lucky."

"As far as I know, even the ancestral secret techniques of the Western Regions' Ten Thousand Spirits Sect can mostly only help demonic beasts awaken a small portion of their superior bloodline, opening up a sliver of possibility for advancing to the upper realm."

"The probability of such a complete bloodline mutation is one in ten thousand."

He spoke with a smile, clearly in a good mood.

Arriving more than half a month early, the middle-aged man with white hair and a gaunt face, dressed in plain clothes, sat quietly in the pavilion in the middle of the river, drinking wine.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators who were originally guarding this place stood respectfully, not daring to approach.

Only a young girl in a yellow dress smiled gently, holding a jade cup filled with fine wine.

"Seventh Uncle is right."

"Bloodline reversion is comparable to the awakening of a hidden Dao body within the human race, capable of defying fate and recreating the universe."

"It's just a great demon with earth-grade bloodline... I don't know what kind of demon beast it is, or what kind of talent or ability it has."

Showing a hint of curiosity, Lu Qingyi asked softly.

"Hehe... The demon race is different from the human race."

"Regardless of the bloodline, even if it is at the bottom, there is a certain probability of advancing to the third rank, which is comparable to cultivating a Core Formation technique or possessing a low-grade Core Formation spiritual object of earth-grade spiritual root."

"If it weren't for the fact that powerful demons with high-level bloodlines have extremely difficult time conceiving offspring, even if they were lucky enough to give birth, they would fall into a long period of weakness. It's uncertain who would be in charge of the cultivation world in the Southern Cliff."

"It can only be said that every coin has two sides, and fate has its own course."

With his flowing sleeves, Lu Yuan stroked his beard and smiled in the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

He came to the vicinity of Baihefang Market to investigate other matters, but he never expected to encounter such an opportunity.

I just hope this person doesn't have any background... Otherwise, when facing descendants of the same level, even if he is a fake Core Formation cultivator, he will inevitably have to consider the reputation of the Lu family for thousands of years and will not be able to make a decision on his own.
