Chapter 549 - 537: Bloodline Fusion
On the other side, after handling the issues with Celestial Sword Mountain, Wang Xuan immersed himself in cultivation.
For him, the whole matter was already set up, just waiting for the final blow to harvest those from the Alien Race and quell the negative impact on Earth Civilization.
For now, letting the bullet fly for a while is no harm.
The Creation Rules’ runes were constantly modifying Wang Xuan’s Immortal Body.
His physique was already the strongest among his peers, even those like Diyang Wushuang were no match, and the power of Creation Rules could elevate his physique to another level.
Wang Xuan, transformed into the Longevity Taoist, continued to bestow kindness, aiding many grateful living beings to breakthrough.
While the Time Domain steadily advanced, it also gathered various mystical bloodlines.
"True Dragon, Phoenix, Black Tortoise, White Tiger and other species each have their fortes; some are unmatched in power, some have peerless defense, and mysteries lie within their bloodlines."
Holding the bloodline runes of these powerful bloodlines, Wang Xuan could surely refine an unyielding physique with no weaknesses, excelling in all aspects if enhanced upon himself.
But the problem lies in how to eliminate the conflict among various bloodline runes and let them perfectly fuse under his control.
To possess the strength of the True Dragon, the defense of the Black Tortoise, the life force of the Phoenix..., one must face the mutual rejection among these sacred bloodlines.
Why hasn’t one heard of any strong person across all time and space in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds experimenting with fusion for the strongest physique?
It’s due to the repulsive conflict during bloodline fusion.
If one compels fusion without considering the risks, one could self-detonate at any time and become a walking bomb.
"I can use Creation Runes which are inherently strong and also possess special fusion effects, using them to suppress all fusions."
The Creation Rules were themselves born from the creation of various bloodlines, possessing an unimaginable fusion capacity and capable of harmonizing various power conflicts.
If it weren’t for following the Path of Creation and possessing strengths in this aspect, Wang Xuan wouldn’t choose such a dangerous road.
Wang Xuan first chose the True Dragon Bloodline, which had a strong inclusiveness alongside exclusivity.
In this world, there are countless Dragon Species, as so the saying goes, "The dragon has nine sons, each different," allowing the True Dragon Bloodline to fuse with various bloodlines.
However, after fusion, once choosing bloodline purification, the direction is sure to be the True Dragon Bloodline.
Wang Xuan used the Creation Rune to interface with the True Dragon Bloodline, continually choosing angles and directions, and after multiple failures, he selected over thirty fusionable types.
Every fusion direction inevitably involves some compromise with the True Dragon Bloodline power, either sacrificing part of the strength or part of the life force.
Afterwards, Wang Xuan began analyzing and fusing other bloodline powers.
"The defenses of the Black Tortoise are naturally superior, ranking among the top among various Divine Beast species, the defense must not be forsaken."
"The Nine-tailed Celestial Fox lineage excels at Spiritual Will, mastering seduction and enchantment, while also being resistant to other entities’ allure."
"The Nine Nether Ant possesses immense strength, stands towering among the Nine Nether, bearing the heavens, treading the Path of Extreme Power."
...
From the characteristics of various bloodlines, Wang Xuan could see the chosen path of their founders and the height reached by each progenitor.
These ancestral creatures must have surpassed the True God level to pass down such powerful bloodlines, their descendants spread across Ten Thousand Realms.
Their progeny inherited only part of the bloodline, yet can dominate various worlds, demonstrating the domineering and powerful nature of their bloodlines.
And now, Wang Xuan chose to reference those forbidden powers, even to make them his own by integrating them into the Creation Rune.
The years of cultivation flew by, in a blink of an eye, a day passed, Wang Xuan occasionally sat below the Tower of Space-Time, dedicating vast amounts of time analyzing and merging various bloodline powers.
"One hundred and eighty types of Divine Beast Bloodlines have been deconstructed and fused, next is to assemble them."
Fusing three or five bloodlines is not difficult, but as the number of bloodlines increases, the difficulty in fusion continually rises.
True Dragon Bloodline infused into Creation Rune, Wang Xuan’s aura skyrocketed by thirty percent, followed by the Black Tortoise Bloodline, Phoenix Bloodline, Wang Xuan’s momentum continually elevated.
Power! Defense! Speed, life force! As long as each attribute is slightly boosted, his overall strength advances significantly!
Upon fusing merely a dozen bloodlines, Wang Xuan’s prowess surged threefold!
For a being of his level, it’s extremely terrifying, as he had already reached the ceiling of his realm, even standing on the ceiling reaching new heights.
A threefold surge implied he elevated the ceiling of Grotto Void True Immortal’s realm to heights other cultivators couldn’t even see.
Wang Xuan continued stacking bloodline runes, but each one added led to a deformation of his body, leading to monstrous alterations.
After adding thirty more bloodlines, Wang Xuan had five heads, thirty arms, a hundred feet, his whole body covered in scales, and dragged nine sledgehammer-like tails.
At this moment, Wang Xuan felt a tearing sensation that could explode.
"It seems that even I cannot control so many Divine Beast Bloodline powers."
Wang Xuan did not give up but adjusted the combinations of highly conflicting bloodlines, using more accommodating bloodlines as separators.
Time flew by, Wang Xuan’s body constantly transformed, sometimes morphing into various monsters.
At the most terrifying moment, he emanated the aura of a Void True Immortal, his strength surged tenfold but transformed into a mountain of flesh.
Wang Xuan sighed deeply and continued his diligent work.
It’s thanks to the cover of the Tower of Space-Time that he had ample time and space for experiments, had he been outside, who knows what chaos might have ensued.
After an unknown span of time, Wang Xuan gradually restored his form, his aura stabilizing.
"Provided it doesn’t affect my own life structure, the combination of these thirty-six Divine Beast Bloodlines is my optimal solution!"
The powers of the thirty-six Divine Beast Bloodlines perfectly integrated into his Creation Rune, neither affecting his life structure, nor bringing terrifying power enhancements.
The best bloodline fusion deconstruction Wang Xuan experimented with significantly boosted his power, speed, defense, Primordial Spirit, and life force...
His strength had now stabilized at five times the previous level! This is the limit.
In just a few days, reaching the peak level of Grotto Void, ready to breach into Star Lord Realm at any time, his power multiplied by fivefold!
Such growth rate and magnitude are truly astounding, knowing this outsiders would surely drop their jaws in shock.
Moreover, holding those bloodline runes, he could instantly create guardians fused with various bloodlines.
Wang Xuan used the bloodline rune as a core, through Creation Rules, Void Creation, a glob of blood soon floated under his manipulation.
He adjusted the bloodline rune, during experiments he created ninety-nine relatively stable bloodline fusion structures, and over a thousand powerful yet volatile structures.
"Different structures have different functions, if it’s assassination, then speed and burst are key; if guarding, then defense and response are key; if battling, comprehensiveness is more important."
One monster after another emerged from the blood, their forms extremely peculiar but they all emitted powerful aura of the Grotto Void peak.
