Beast Taming: Bloodline Golden Hand-Chapter 706 - 457: Devouring the Dao Fragment (2)

Just by absorbing a single Dao Fragment, a Beastmaster or Spirit Beast can see their strength skyrocket.

What if they absorb several, or even dozens?

How terrifying would their power become?

If the Dragon Veins were really being nurtured, was that person's original idea?

If they truly succeeded, how strong would they have become?

He shook his head, temporarily suppressing these chaotic thoughts.

The most urgent task is to decide the ownership of this great opportunity.

With a thought, he summoned all his Spirit Beast partners.

The Little Fox lazily yawned, the first to be excluded by Lin Chen.

The energy within it hasn't fully settled, the side effects of swallowing the Karma Fire Pill need time to digest. Absorbing the Dao Fragment might destabilize its foundation.

The Little Blue Fish cheerfully swam in the air, the second to be excluded.

Its demand for this pure Energy Body is minimal and its foundation is inherently weak.

And this big fat fish can level up just by lying down.

There's no need to mention Little Fire, it has no concept of levels, just needs enough fire to eat.

The Spirit Beast that fits the most is actually Xiaobai.

Xiaobai's foundation has always been solid, and with the emergence of the Divine Race, the pressure on Lin Chen is immense.

Lin Chen naturally hopes the top-tier fighting power will be as strong as possible.

But Xiaobai is currently asleep and can't wake up temporarily.

Eventually, Lin Chen's gaze landed on the largest but weakest-scented Big White Bear.

"Xiao Hei, it's you."

Lin Chen's eyes were full of anticipation.

The Big White Bear, which was lying on the side rubbing its belly, suddenly raised its head, and in its gentle bear eyes, disbelief flashed first, then was replaced by great expectation and a hint of nervousness.

It was a bit afraid of letting down Lin Chen's opportunity.

Unexpectedly, it seems the other Spirit Beasts noticed its tension and came forward to cheer it on in their own ways.

Seeing Xiaohong and the others' encouragement, the Big White Bear's nervousness gradually settled.

Lin Chen also said, "Xiaobai will take some time to wake up, during which we need a close-combat fighter, can't rely on the Little Fox to throw fireballs every time, so we'll need you to protect us."

Xiao Hei pondered for a moment, finally nodding heavily, letting out a deep and powerful roar.

Lin Chen smiled with satisfaction.

Spirit Beasts with Law Evolution possess combat power far beyond the same level, truly synonymous with surpassing ranks.

He eagerly anticipated how far Xiao Hei would grow after fusing with the Dao Fragment.

He already had a detailed plan in mind.

The first step is to use the Bloodline Golden Hand, purify Xiao Hei's bloodline again, laying the most solid foundation for its upcoming metamorphosis. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Get to work right away!

He retrieved several samples of high-quality bear blood from the Beast Taming Space.

These were collected over the years, prepared for Xiao Hei's next evolution.

That night, Lin Chen activated the Bloodline Golden Hand, pressing one hand on the Big White Bear's head.

As the Bloodline Power surged into the Big White Bear, it started the deepest refinement and purification of its bloodline.

The process was naturally extremely painful.

For this, Xiao Hei suffered for about a day, then slept for three whole days and nights.

On the fifth day, Lin Chen was finally able to see Xiao Hei's purified statistics:

[Dominant Bloodline: 91.5%]

"Great!"

Seeing this value, Lin Chen's eyes flashed with delight.

91.5% of Dominant Bloodline is certainly sufficient.

Xiao Hei still has the chance for further purification. When it strives to become an Immortal Beast in the future, it'll need the Bloodline Golden Hand to help it make that crucial breakthrough!

Lin Chen didn't rush into letting it absorb the Dao Fragment. Instead, he let it rest for five days, adjusting its body and mental state to the peak.

...

On the morning of the sixth day, as the first ray of sunlight fell on the mountaintop, Lin Chen checked the Big White Bear's data panel one last time:

[Eight Desolates Battle Bear]

[Level: 68]

[Divine Enlightenment: Combat Law]

[Law Level: 2]

[Law Body: Overlord Bear Body]

[Passive Skills: Battle Intuition]

[Skill 1: Bear Axe (Bear Paw) Unity (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 2: Illusory Step (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 3: Battle Soul Sharpness (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 4: Heavenly Axe Manifestation (Perfection)]

[Skill 5: Battle God Clone (Perfection)]

Seeing that almost all skills on the panel had reached Divine Enlightenment or Perfection, Lin Chen nodded with satisfaction.

During this time, Xiao Hei's level improved slowly, but its foundation was incredibly solid.

"Xiao Hei, are you ready? Let's begin."

Lin Chen's voice was steady and firm.

He awakened the Dao Fragment emitting a soft golden glow again, slowly pushing it towards the Big White Bear.

The Big White Bear took a deep breath, its bear eyes filled with unprecedented tension.

Recently, watching Xiaobai, Xiaohong, and even the later-added Little Fire and Little Blue showcase brilliance in battle, protecting Lin Chen...

To say it wasn't anxious would be a lie.

It desires battle, longs to fight alongside Xiaobai and the others, to protect Lin Chen.

But now, due to its low level, it can only helplessly watch most high-level battles from the sidelines.

Now… the chance has finally come!

The golden fragment, as it approached the Big White Bear, transformed into a pure golden stream, without any pause, "whoosh" straight into its skull!

"Roar..."

Initially, the Big White Bear felt a warm stream enveloping its body, incredibly comfortable, as if soaking in a hot spring.

But after just a few seconds, this warmth suddenly turned violent!

An indescribable terrifying energy, like a flood breaching a dam, crazily washing through its limbs, meridians, and flesh!

It felt every blood vessel swelling, every bone wailing, as if this immense power was going to burst it apart!

"ROAR——!!!"

The intense pain made the Big White Bear unable to suppress, emitting a heart-wrenching scream, its massive body rolling crazily on the ground, even smashing out huge hollows in the hard mountaintop.

The Little Fox and Little Blue Fish were shocked, instinctively trying to rush forward.

"Don't go!"

Lin Chen immediately reached out to stop them, his face very grave, fists clenched tight, watching the struggling Big White Bear intently.

He knew this was the most crucial and painful phase of metamorphosis—rebirth and purification.

If it could pass through, it would be smooth sailing.

But failing to pass, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He could do nothing but trust in Xiao Hei's willpower.

As time ticked by, the Big White Bear's screams gradually became hoarse, but its rolling motions never stopped. Its bear eyes were filled with bloodshot tears and pain!

A long time later, when Lin Chen's heart nearly leaped to his throat, that violent energy torrent finally began to subside, and the Big White Bear's struggles also slowly paused.

Replaced by heavy breathing sounds.

The pain was finally over.

Lin Chen exhaled deeply but remained vigilant, continuing to observe carefully.

He saw a gentle yet dazzling golden light slowly emanate from the Big White Bear, like silk, enveloping its massive body layer after layer.

This process lasted the entire night.

The next morning, as Lin Chen awoke from cultivation, to his surprise, where the Big White Bear once lay was now replaced by an enormous, dark-golden cocoon!

"Cocooned?!"

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat, his breath caught, and an overwhelming possibility popped into his mind.

Spirit Beasts do not cocoon while leveling up; only during evolution does cocooning occur.

Dao Fragments primarily promote life tier transcendence, which is evolution!

Does this mean… this time, Xiao Hei can not only greatly enhance its level but also smoothly complete its critical evolution?!

At this thought, Lin Chen's mood shifted instantly from anticipation to utmost tension.

If other Spirit Beasts fail evolutionary attempts, they mostly suffer potential loss and become useless.

However, if a Law-evolved Spirit Beast fails, the backlash from the Law's power is truly…

life-threatening!
