Chapter 158: Bloodline Upgrade?
Lin Wu’s mind was now filled with a myriad of ideas. With the new form, and the abilities that could be used with it, he realized that for specific skills, further fine tuning may be necessary.
“Hmm… perhaps I should assign a specific task to the system to optimize these forms and the qi circuits that are used for them. But still, I’ll need to gather more data by fighting and observing if the system is to enhance it.” Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Shirong was lying on the ground, looking up at the full moon in the sky. The trees in the area had been utterly destroyed, and the clouds had been blown away by his few attacks. Because of this, the moon had been fully revealed.
After a minute, he managed to make himself sit up. He then changed his posture to one of meditation and focused on recovering his injuries. He didn’t have to recover all of them, just enough so that he could get away from this place without much problem.
Shirong also knew that he had to hurry or the blood of the dead beasts would attract the other beasts after a while. Though it seemed that the power of the attack had scared them for now, but soon they would not be able to resist the enticing scent of the blood.
After about five minutes he gained the control of his body and stood up, picking the Immortal crystal armament that was still in the glaive form.
“Now to gather them all…” Shirong muttered to himself.
He then went around every corpse or their remains one by one, and stabbed the glaive in them. It took him over three minutes to do it for all of them but eventually, he was done. And along with this not only was his spirit qi stores replenished, but they had now reached very close to the peak.
“Just a few more beasts and I should be ready…” Shirong said as he assessed his dantian.
Because he had used up more spirit qi than normal in using the Immortal Sky Shaker Art: Sundering tempest, his spirit qi wasn’t able to completely reach the peak. If he had not used that skill and then absorbed the beasts using the Immortal Crystal Armament, he was sure that he would have reached the Pseudo nascent soul realm.
‘Seems like I’ll have to delay using that ‘technique’ till I can get a lot more spirit qi. Still… this battle was great.’ Shirong thought as a smile appeared on his face.
He basked in the feeling of absorbing all the spirit qi that he got from the immortal crystal armament and enjoyed it. He wished that he could continue to feel this for a longer time, but that was not possible… at least not for now.
“Better leave this place for now…” Shirong said to himself and flew away on his spirit sword.
A few minutes later, the place of the battle was filled with more beasts. They had sensed the massive spirit qi fluctuation and also the blood that had spilled.
~Grrr~
The first to appear were none other than more Lamp Light Ligers.
“This cannot be! It’s our brothers!” One of the Lamp Light Ligers said with shock.
A Lamp Light Liger walked forward and smelled the ground, unable to find a scent.
“There is no scent either… whoever or rather whatever it was left no trace.”
“That’s not all, can’t you feel it?” A bigger Lamp Light Liger that was standing at the back suddenly spoke.
All of the Lamp Light Ligers then closed their eyes and focused on the area.
“THIS! WHY IS OUR SPIRIT GETTING SUPPRESSED?” The Lamp Light Ligers said with utter shock.
“Quick! Leave the area. This does not seem to be the work of any weak being, we need to report to the king.” The Lamp Light Liger who seemed to be the leader of this group ordered.
The others growled in agreement, and all of them swiftly left the area.
Back at the cave, Shirong was sitting in a cross legged manner and cultivating. He had to assimilate the large amount of spirit qi that he had just obtained from the Immortal Crystal armament. The weapon itself though was kept to the side and had transformed back into the normal spear form.
Shirong also wondered if the spear could be considered its default form or not. But in the end, he let this thought slide as he reckoned it would be better to just wait and watch rather than to blindly speculate and reach no conclusion.
Lin Wu was currently looking through the notification log, as he had gotten a lot of them. He had ignored them for the duration of the fight, but now he finally got the chance to see it.
“System, show me the notification log.” Lin Wu ordered.

Looking at the log, Lin Wu was pleased quite a bit. Not only had his innate skill’s proficiency been upgraded, but he had also obtained quite a lot of vital energy along with spirit qi.
Another thing he was intrigued about was the new form of the dual bladed glaive that he had created. His previous forms didn’t have time limits, and only this one seemed to have one. Usually, the spear form was the most conformable one to him and others while uncomfortable had not set time limit.
He would only switch because he was getting uncomfortable, but not because of limit.
‘Hmm… It is probably due to the conflicting nature of the spirit qi and radiation that it is like this and has a time limit of ten minutes. From this, I can guess that in the future when I make some new forms, they may have a time limit too if they are using incompatible techniques or skills.’ Lin Wu thought.
“Let’s take a look at the host data, system show it to me.” Lin Wu ordered.
There were now a few new changes that had happened due to his increase in cultivation base, and he wanted to see exactly what they were.

Lin Wu could see that a new section for the weapon forms had been added to the list. It seemed like it only mentioned the forms that had a specific time limit attached to them and optimized for a qi skill.
Another thing was that by absorbing the spirit qi and vital energy of the 25 core condensation realm Lamp Light Ligers, Lin Wu had also gotten the raw bloodline data for them. But the most interesting thing was that there was an extra tag added to it as well.
“System, why is there an extra tag with the Lamp Light Liger bloodline data?” Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
——
ANSWER: The Bloodline data obtained from the 25 Lamp Light Ligers is enough for a complete bloodline to be created. Because of this, the system was able to compile the progressive form and can upgrade the bloodline to its new form.
The Lamp Light Liger bloodline can be upgraded to the Twin Light Liger Bloodline.
——
Seeing the system’s answer shocked Lin Wu as he said, “Aw, Heck yeah!
