Chapter 444: Section 231: Magic Potion Blood Test (Part 2)

Deep Sea Monster Fish.

Alchemy Cabin.

A test that could change the future of the survivors was in progress.

The fog of light from the alchemy array had once again reverted to a platinum luster.

Zi Di had renewed the blood sample that needed replacing.

“Next, use the Earth Element Test Potion. If my previous speculation is correct, the Big Guy’s blood will react violently.”

Zi Di focused her attention on the blood clump of the Big Guy.

Sure enough, as the fog turned brownish-yellow, the Big Guy’s blood began to tremble slightly.

Then, like a starved beast awakening, it started to frantically absorb the surrounding brownish-yellow fog.

The fog poured into the blood clump, and after a few seconds, it even affected the entire alchemy array!

The speed at which the fog was absorbed grew faster, even forming a faint sound of wind.

Zi Di was stunned!

She hurriedly stopped the test, and in just about ten seconds, her carefully prepared Earth Element Test Potion was almost depleted.

Previously, two vials of test potions had left more than half a vial after use.

Zi Di calmed herself down and restored the fog back to platinum.

The Big Guy’s blood clump completely settled down.

“The volume of the blood has not increased much, not even by 5%.”

“Unbelievable!”

“According to the War Merchant’s records, this suggests that the Bloodline Grade contained in the blood is very high, at least at the Legendary level!”

At this point, a significant discovery had emerged.

It was the Big Guy!

Despite his worrisome intelligence, being foolish, and sometimes going into mad rampages, his talent was genuinely high.

Typically, those at the Golden Level could be lords of a territory, such as Hun Tong or Beach Loach.

At the Holy Domain Level, they would be national ministers, commanders of the official armies, etc.

Legendary level, however, supports a great nation and leaders of significant forces, being one of the core indicators of nobility in the Holy Bright Empire.

“Could the Big Guy become a Lord? A national minister? Or even a King, a Pope?” Zi Di’s eyes were full of disbelief, struggling to imagine such a scene!

“Sigh.”

“It’s really a pity.”

“Big Guy’s intelligence is too low; one might even call him idiotic. He simply cannot practice Fighting energy; he can’t even establish the most basic Fighting energy circulation.”

“Following his original life trajectory, he would live long-term on the Pig Kiss, under the protection of his foster father, the old shipwright, and serve as a laborer. Given his frequent outbursts, who would give him the chance to cultivate Fighting energy?”

“It’s only our special group, only the squad leader, who gave him the opportunity to be exposed to Fighting energy.”

“Yet even so, his intelligence has become a barrier he cannot overcome. Unable to cultivate, he has no chance to advance into the Transcendent.”

For a moment, Zi Di was filled with mixed emotions and profound reflections.

For someone like the Big Guy, is it fate’s favor or fate’s mockery?

It wouldn’t matter if the heavens hadn’t granted him such talent.

But to give him such talent and yet render him unable to benefit.

The Big Guy was an abandoned orphan, a pitiable child who suffered disdain, bullying, and ostracization during his growth, with the only warmth and reliance in his life—the old shipwright—having sacrificed himself at Mysterious Monster Island.

On his deathbed, the old shipwright entrusted the Big Guy, who considered the Dragon-man youth his only family.

“So, his loyalty is most unquestionable!” Zi Di’s eyes shone.

“At least Legendary… could it be Divine Bloodline?”

“My God, if it’s Divine, could Big Guy possibly become a deity? This is completely unimaginable!”

“I must cultivate him well; he’s a promising seedling!” Zi Di resolved at that moment.

“Next, I need to support him vigorously, spare no resources on him.”

“Legendary level… tsk tsk.”

“His intelligence issue isn’t even a problem anymore. No one with Legendary Bloodline grows up to be a fool!”

“He doesn’t need any purification of his bloodline; his is already a superior bloodline!”

“Just as long as he steps into cultivation, keeps accumulating Cultivation… ah.”

Zi Di froze.

The problem reverted to the starting point.

How could the Big Guy cultivate? How could he establish his first basic Fighting energy circulation?

“Buy an Intelligence Potion!”

“There must be high-grade Intelligence Potions on Ice Sculpture Island.”

“Even if the price is higher than that of a Golden Level Healing Potion, it doesn’t matter.”

“He must buy it.”

“We can’t let the kids suffer!”

Zi Di thought this, her expression even carrying a trace of ferocity.

If it had been before Mysterious Monster Island, she would have been profoundly envious and even jealous upon discovering the Big Guy’s Bloodline Grade.

But now, she also had new possibilities.

“Our other members’ Bloodline Grades can also be improved.”

“Once we discover the method to produce Blood Cores in the future, each of us will have a limitless future!”

The Ghost Girl regained her composure and quickly calmed down.

Full of anticipation for the future, she continued the testing.

The next third round of testing was still the Earth Element Test.

The reason was that the Big Guy’s blood clot had reacted too intensely before, severely interfering with others’ blood clots.

Therefore, this time, Zi Di excluded only the blood sample of the Big Guy, retaining the other blood samples.

Without the interference of the big guy, the blood of one among them changed in the brown-yellow haze.

That was Fat Tongue’s blood.

The bloodline of Elder Fat Tongue also had a tendency towards the earth element. However, this level of change was entirely incomparable to that of the big guy.

Afterward, Zi Di began experimenting with fire element potions.

Lan Zao’s blood mass visibly shrank and wilted.

Mu Ban’s blood mass seemed to wither like vegetation.

Zi Di’s blood minutely absorbed the red mist and formed very small speckles on the surface of the blood.

Zi Di felt elated; these patterns were crucial, likely the key clues for her to precisely pinpoint the bloodline.

The Tower Spirit meticulously recorded everything down.

Somewhat surprisingly to Zi Di, Sanda’s blood also showed an affinity for the fire element at this stage.

“That’s interesting.”

“Sanda’s bloodline contains elements of water, wood, and fire?”

Zi Di continued experimenting.

This content is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

Dark, light, wind, ice, lightning…

After several rounds of potion tests, she compiled a complex set of experimental results.

Sanda’s bloodline properties had been modified for better accuracy, replacing the previous water element with ice, his bloodline now close to ice, wood, and fire elements.

Queshan’s bloodline contained darkness.

Lan Zao’s bloodline had water nature.

The big guy was earth, Mu Ban was wood, and Fat Tongue had a faint earth element too.

Zi Di’s own preexisting bloodline was close to wood and fire.

Among the rest, the young squad leader possessed a Blood Core; there was no need for a test.

Cang Xu’s living dead blood still retained remnants of wood but leaned more towards negative energy.

The only two whose blood showed no reaction were Zong Ge and Bai Ya.

Absence of affinity for any attribute did not imply their bloodlines were without merit. In fact, many advanced bloodlines are neutral, untainted by any attributes.

Being close to a particular attribute meant that the respective bloodline could perform better in a certain aspect.

However, from another perspective: excelling in one domain also implies a weakness in others, which can also be seen as a type of shackle.

These potion tests were only the first phase.

But before starting the second phase, Zi Di began limited deduction and calculations based on these experimental results.

The myriad of bloodlines were vast like smoke on the sea but were, in fact, interconnected.

Thanks to the War Merchant’s database.

He researched Blood Cores and conducted large-scale experiments on man-made magical beasts, naturally having extensive experimental data and preliminary theories formed in practice.

Among them was a crucial piece of information, extremely useful for Zi Di’s current tasks—the Bloodline Map.

It included records of the King of Flame Dragon’s bloodline.

The Bloodline of the King of Flame Dragon occupied a high node, one of the minor nodes in one of its sub-branches was the Smoke Dragon Bloodline.

Once, the Dragon-man youth absorbed a Smoke Dragon and not only mastered part of the Smoke Dragon’s mutation but also slightly heightened the concentration of his inherent King of Flame Dragon’s bloodline.

Because the source of the Smoke Dragon’s bloodline was the King of Flame Dragon bloodline!

Hence, for the Dragon-man youth to increase his King of Flame Dragon bloodline concentration, there was no need to slay a King of Flame Dragon—too rare to encounter and immensely difficult and risky.

He just needed to follow the Bloodline Map, collect from the sub-branches under the King of Flame Dragon bloodline, and by stacking quantities over time, his King of Flame Dragon bloodline could be elevated.

It’s worth mentioning that the War Merchant’s Bloodline Map was incomplete.

This wasn’t due to damage caused by the Tower Spirit; in fact, the map data was very well preserved.

The real reason was: the conditions of bloodlines are not immutable, and the relationships between bloodlines are complex and difficult to completely breakthrough.

Even the War Merchant found this to be true.

There were two main reasons for this.

The first was the real bloodlines were difficult to detect efficiently.

The second was the constant emergence of new bloodlines.

Like the Dragon Bloodline.

Dragons were promiscuous, capable of mating with many species and producing many sub-species.

Once these sub-species reproduced and stabilized into a population, that was a new bloodline.

If there were a Bloodline Map that could actually record the current worldwide situation, we would see this map continually changing. Some bloodlines disappeared, but many more were added.

Overall, the Bloodline Map was constantly expanding.

Both the previous bloodline investigation and the last round of magic potion blood testing were helping Zi Di narrow down the bloodline scope of each survivor on this Bloodline Map.

Minutes later, through calculations, Zi Di derived a more comprehensive experimental plan.

“Now, onto the second phase of potion testing.”

“Starting with the simplest… Lan Zao.”

Lan Zao’s blood only showed affinity with water.

This time, Zi Di just suspended his blood in the Platinum Light Mist.

For her improvised potion-making, the main ingredient was Fishman blood.

After the melee on Twin Eyes Island, Zi Di also obtained some Fishman corpses.

While Cang Xu harvested souls on the battlefield, she was collecting treasures and picking up corpses under the sea.

Corpses of Transcendents were alchemy materials.

Even the scales and flesh of ordinary Fishmen had their value. However, constrained by the storage capacity of the Deep Sea Monster Fish, Zi Di had to discard ordinary human corpses; mainly because the treasures were too many and took up too much space, making ordinary corpses economically unviable.

The Fishman Species Test Potion was prepared.

Zi Di activated the Array, and Lan Zao’s blood immediately reacted.

The surface of the blood rippled with tiny waves.

“Lucky.”

“Lan Zao has the Fishman Bloodline!”
