Age of Adepts

Throne of Flame.

Inside a brightly lit sorcery chamber, Grim was carefully handling the star beast's corpse.

Under the instructions of the chip, Grim cut off a certain part of the star beast corpse from time to time, then threw it into his mouth and gulped it down. These pieces of flesh flowing with purple blood were so fishy and unpleasant to smell, and the flesh was so tough and hard to hurt, even with the scalpel in Grim's hands that was enchanted with various sorcery effects, it was so difficult to cut.

It was impossible for an ordinary person's stomach to digest this kind of star beast flesh and blood with strong elemental toxins. I'm afraid that the moment the flesh and blood entered the mouth, the devourer would be infected and turned into a strange monster on the spot.

Grim's stomach was now different from normal people's, with a tough and dense stomach wall, filled with golden flames that reached a temperature of thousands of degrees. The first moment the flesh and blood of the star beast fell into the stomach pouch, it was wrapped in the golden flame and instantly vaporized and decomposed into magic particles with different elemental characteristics.

However, the special life factors imbedded in the flesh and blood were directly absorbed by the stomach wall and transported to a special area in the body through a specially constructed pipe.

There, the star beast bloodline genetic fragments that Grim had absorbed and resolved were slowly rotating. These freshly absorbed life factors were continuously integrating into the gene fragments, slowly filling in the missing parts.

Of course, the vast majority of the absorbed star beast bloodline overlapped with the previous bloodline genes, and could only be enhanced sideways but could not fill in the missing parts. Only after the fusion of a handful of gene fragments could the growth length of the bloodline gene chain change slightly again.

98, 8965%....

Relying on the chip's delicate observation and perception, Grimfon was able to detect the inscrutable subtle changes in the four decimal places. It was like playing a genetic puzzle game, where the entire genetic map was made up of millions and millions of tiny genetic fragments.

Now, the Star Beast bloodline in Grim's body was already more than 98% complete, and the remaining little bit seemed insignificant, but it wasn't that easy to complete.

Other sorcerers didn't have the assistance of a chip as delicate as his, and often had to rely on their intuition and luck to test it out a little. If he was right, he would move forward, if he was wrong, he would give up and start all over again.

As a result, although there were many strong sorcerers, the sorcerers were still in an ignorant and primitive state when it came to bloodline research. Moreover, most of the high-ranking sorcerers studied on their own, and would never share or exchange what they studied with others.

As a result, the witchcraft system regarding bloodline research was fragmented and full of barriers, and it was impossible to form a stable bloodline family.

As a result, most of the bloodline families that appeared in the sorcerer system were short-lived, and as the strongest ones passed away or fell, the power of the family fell into a steady decline and weakening.

Of course, this might have been intentional on the part of those great sorcerers as well. To precisely prevent a particular bloodline family from becoming too powerful and thus dominating and ruling the Wizard World for too long.

This would also give other elemental spectrum sorcerers or bloodline families the chance to show their power and excitement!

Of course, this was just a speculation of Grim's, and there was no actual evidence to support this view yet.

But what those great sorcerers thought, Grim didn't care, he only wanted to make up for the deficiency of his star beast bloodline as soon as possible, so that this long-awaited bloodline's power could truly shine.

99, 1365%....

Soon, under Grim's gulping, the completeness of the star beast bloodline coming from the chip was slowly increasing.

A Tier 3 Star Beast might not be enough to support the completion of the entire Star Beast bloodline, but it was more than enough to make up for the 3% he lacked!

Finally, under the ding of a chip-clear tone, the light blue Star Beast Bloodline Integrity progress bar deep in Grim's mind came to 100%.

In the next second, Grim Ug shivered, and his entire body began to shake violently like a sieve.

It was as if a spatial singularity had suddenly opened in the depths of his mind, and his spiritual consciousness was briefly coupled with certain ethereal world rules. Following that, the overwhelming experience inheritance and strange perceptions engulfed his main consciousness like a giant wave.

"Drops, detected an exotic data stream, tentatively estimated to be the world inheritance of an exotic star beast... Please instruct the subject whether or not to receive it?"

"Receive...receive...receive immediately!"

Grim almost gave orders to the chip with a barking gesture.

It was important to know that star beasts in general started receiving the indoctrination of the world inheritance from their infancy, and with such a gradual process, they were naturally able to receive it smoothly. Moreover, most star beasts were fearsome creatures with thick skin and thick flesh, and their mental tolerance was a hundred times stronger than Grim's human consciousness.

Thus, it wouldn't be that painful for them to receive their inheritance!

But Grim clearly lacked the buffer from 1st to 3rd order, and received the 4th order Star Beast's inheritance transformation with human consciousness right off the bat. To be honest, if the chip hadn't withstood the majority of the Inheritance shock on his behalf, he would have been the first fool in the history of witches to have his main consciousness washed away by the Bloodline Inheritance transformation.

However, even so, just suffering the aftermath of the Bloodline Inheritance Transformation made Grim scream, his eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and the pores of his entire body were splashing out with purple and black blood.

The blood was so thick and viscous that one couldn't help but wonder how such a huge amount of blood could be hidden inside Grim's 2 meter human body.

Not only blood water, along with the black blood, there was also a large strand of extremely pure flame energy that spurted out.

A cloud of crimson flames poured out from Grim's body, vaporizing and decomposing everything around him, even the obsidian floor underneath him that was protected by the Witch Formation burned red.

Even the obsidian floor beneath him, which was protected by the witch array, turned red. As for the light and soft robe on Grim's body, it even turned into ashes at the first moment of the flame explosion.

Grim mouthed loudly, enduring great pain from the genetic level while waiting for the results of the chip analysis.

The contents of the Star Beast Inheritance were too large and confusing, and I'm afraid that even a real Star Beast would need a huge amount of energy and a long time to digest and absorb these inheritances.

Grim didn't have the time to sleep for more than ten years to digest and absorb this knowledge, inheritance and insights, so he could only use the chip's powerful data storage and operation sorting function, like a needle in a haystack, to find himself the most convenient and simplest bloodline inheritance route.

Devouring Demon Fish!

It had to be said that this star beast that Grim had chosen for himself was a rare and exotic species. Its name was the Devouring Demon Fish, and it possessed a strange stomach sac capable of devouring all creatures and energy.

As long as it was swallowed whole, any creature could only be good enough to turn into chaotic energy and become part of its body.

The reason why he had received the inherited transformation of the Devouring Demon Fish might also be directly related to the fish-shaped star beast that Mary had given him. After all, the fact that Grim's Star Beast bloodline could grow so quickly was entirely due to the Ice Dragon Heart and the fish-shaped star beast.

It was the two of them that had stimulated Grim's bloodline power to grow so rapidly!

Lying silently in the crimson tumbling lava pool, Grim was undergoing a revolutionary inheritance transformation both inside and outside of his body. There was no way to know the nuances of the internal changes, only layers of crystal-like transparent scales could be seen on the surface of his dark red glittering skin.

These scales covered almost all parts of Grim's body, up, down, left and right, leaving only tiny gaps in the eyes, ears, mouth, nose and other few parts. As Grim breathed heavily with what sounded like a ragged breath, a stream of thin, almost transparent flames spewed out of his mouth and nose, condensing into another regular flame that shone with golden light on his surface.

It could be seen that even the felling and marrow-washing Star Beast Bloodline Transformation had not completely suppressed Grim's original flame talent. In contrast, after the harsh squeeze of the bloodline's power, the past Broad and Impure Origin Flame had dissipated seventy-eight percent, but what remained was centered on the flame rules, condensing into the long-awaited true Indestructible Flame of Grim.

From now on, the Indestructible Flame was both a sorcery tactic of Grim's and a flame rule that he had fused into the depths of his soul!

From then on, the indestructible flame became a part of his instincts, and no one could ever strip it from his soul again.

And when Grim's mental consciousness was dizzy and somewhat trance-like, the chip's new beep came into his mind.

"Drop, first Star Beast bloodline replenishment complete..."

"The subject has completed the first Star Beast Bloodline Inheritance and has acquired the following abilities..."

"Demon Fish Transformation: the subject can transform into a Devouring Demon Fish with all of its battle power and bloodline specialties..."

"Berserk Devouring: can swallow a creature no larger than twice its own size, then convert it into chaotic energy for its own use... This effect can only be applied once per day... (Note: Enemies over the (You can't devour it if it's twice your own body!)"

"Devouring Magic: One of the bloodline specialties, able to fully devour a magic whose energy strength does not exceed 6000 degrees and transform it into corresponding chaotic energy for return... This effect can only be applied three times per day..."

"After transforming into a Demon Fish, the subject's power is affected by both its own constitution and strength. Every 10 points of mental energy can support the Bloodline Transformation effect for 2 minutes, and mental energy below 10 points will automatically withdraw the Bloodline Transformation effect..."

"........"

"........"

Looking at the rows, columns, and densely packed data and parameters, Grim's heart was both shocked and delighted.

Finally, his bloodline transformation that had lasted for a hundred and two hundred years had a final result, and he was able to truly apply it to the battlefield. On the other hand, the power and strangeness of the Star Beast's bloodline also made it secretly frightened!

Perhaps this was the real reason why Star Beasts were able to traverse the sea of stars and make all the planes feel extremely unscrupulous!
