When Wang Qi left the Yangshen Pavilion's premises, the sun had already leaned westward.

At the very beginning, Liu Huafeng asked some questions, and after confirming Zhen Chan's intention, continuously used spells to examine Zhen Chan's soul. Wang Qi counted, this woman used more than two hundred spells successively and acquired over a thousand types of data.

Only then did Wang Qi marvel that this person truly deserved to be called a professional.

After coming out from the Yangshen Pavilion's premises, Zhen Chan was in a state of distraction, as if his entire worldview was being rebuilt after a catastrophe.

He was dug up from the ground by Wang Qi roughly ten years ago, and Wang Qi became a Modern Cultivator only seven years ago. In these seven years, he had experienced more world-view rebuilding than in the entirety of the past ten thousand years.

However, this time, his worldview was washed with words for the first time.

"Hey hey, old man, you don't have to be so downcast..." Wang Qi shook his head: "I say, actually, your matter isn't that bad, is it? Bloodline issues after all!"

"It's just a bit awkward." Zhen Chan felt an indescribable sense of strangeness in his heart. Nonetheless, after all, he was a Mahayana Cultivator, only a step away from becoming an Immortal, this ordeal passed swiftly for him. Soon, he began to concern himself with his future physical body again—the most important thing was the potential of that body. He asked Wang Qi: "Do you think, my physical body..."

"They have told you all possible ill consequences, and you were completely willing, right?" Wang Qi counter-asked.

With the weight of a true Grandmaster from Tianling Ridge, quite different from Wang Qi, the "Shame of Dao Seed," she at least thoroughly implemented the two fundamental principles of "informed" and "consent."

Zhen Chan still couldn't help but feel a lingering sense of unease. After a moment of contemplation, he asked: "Why not infuse all beneficial bloodlines into it?"

"Why? Why add so much?"

"If the bloodline root is extended, won't the space to perform Transformation Divine Power also increase?" Zhen Chan thus spoke: "By that account, the bloodline root of the Dragon Clan must be quite lengthy."

Embodied with the wisdom befitting a Mahayana Grandmaster, having studied the theoretical concepts of Modern theories, he quickly deciphered the mystery of this divine skill.

To this, Wang Qi shook his head and said: "It's not that simple."

"Even your Modern theories say, the Dragon Clan is the most powerful species evolved from this heaven and earth. Since their bloodline root length is longer than the Human Clan, modeling after them shouldn't be wrong, right?"

Wang Qi shook his head: "Old man, do you know? Determining a creature's traits relies not only on the bloodline but also on the expression of that bloodline."

"Of course I know, that is the principle of the Dragon Clan's Transformation technique."

"The length of a bloodline can't explain everything, it also depends on the way it is expressed," Wang Qi said: "Do you know? The bloodline root length of rice is twice that of the Human Clan, and this length even exceeds some Spirit Grasses and Spirit Beasts. But all things considered, it is still just a mere common entity, like a weed."

"The quantity and length of bloodline roots are related to the expression of the bloodline. The Dragon Clan's unlimited transformation ability mainly lies in their capacity to selectively render some bloodline roots inactive, forming bloodline root tumors, and then reactivating these tumors when needed. This is also a profound skill, not something that can be simply learned by learning."

By analogy to files, the Dragon Clan can readily turn some bloodline roots into compressed packages, not partaking in the manufacture of Life Source Material.

This was the transformation mystery Wang Qi experienced during the process when Moonset Glaze transformed his blood. He could sense every chromosome within the cell being molded like a lump of clay under the influence of Moonset Glaze's Essence. What was originally recessive was forcibly elevated, and what was originally dominant was obscured. Excess bloodline roots were compressed into edge materials similar to "Bash's Small Body."

Zhen Chan laughed and said: "That's not a big problem! I was originally a Mahayana Cultivator, quite powerful; learning such Transformation Divine Power shouldn't be tough."

Wang Qi shook his head, showing a look of giving up, and explained in a low voice: "This thing is a Dragon Clan heritage; the Human Clan may not necessarily use it, and the Immortal Alliance will need a long time to decipher it... At least about five to six years."

Zhen Chan seemed to have learned a lesson and said: "Then after I recover my physical body, I will volunteer to sign up to participate in this project. After all, I have some experience in spells."

Zhen Chan was indeed quite confident. Luofu Xuanqing Palace, similar to the Heavenly Book Tower, was renowned for its plethora of spells. And unlike the Heavenly Book Tower, which relied on the unique magic artifact, the Heavenly Book, to cast spells, he could independently tame almost any Sect's Law.

Just like developing a fighter jet typically requires test pilots, developing spells naturally requires such "skilled workers." If Zhen Chan doesn't set high demands, being a technician, mingling around the Golden Core Stage for a hundred years, he might possibly reach the Primordial Spirit stage.

"I don't think there's any rush. In designing bloodline roots, it might take as short as three years, or as long as five years, and since you already voluntarily signed up for cutting-edge projects, it might take even longer. Senior Liu also mentioned earlier that she'll consult with you several more times to determine the detailed intentions for your physical body. During this time, you should find an opportunity to consult Senior Sister Ai; she is also an expert-level figure."

Zhen Chan nodded, "Indeed, it should be so."

"Later, I will also have Jarvis calculate the whereabouts of the Wu Mountain Su family." Wang Qi said, "If you want, I might even take you to see a family with a similar Primordial Essence Bloodline Root as yours."

Zhen Chan sighed softly, "Actually, I forgot to mention...the Primordial Essence Bloodline Root does not have to be fixated on the Wu Mountain Su family. The previous generation...the second last Sect Leader's family of Luofu Xuanqing Palace can also be an option."

Wang Qi thought for a moment, "Your godfather's?"

"If I can't find a Primordial Essence Bloodline Root similar to my biological father's, finding one similar to my master's would be good too," Zhen Chan sighed, "If I can't find any, then let it be."

Wang Qi nodded. The biggest issue Zhen Chan faced was the chaos caused by the Demon Emperor that had severely damaged Shenzhou, severing countless bloodlines. Finding a Primordial Essence Bloodline Root that Zhen Chan could accept was not an easy task.

"What should we do next?"

"Hold on a moment, young man." Zhen Chan suddenly said seriously, "I feel like I sense something!"

A surge of Sword Intent shot into the sky, its Sword Qi unparalleled and supreme, exuding a terrifying dominance from the top of the food chain. Wang Qi even seemed to hear a faint dragon roar. At the same time, a purple light surged into the sky not far away.

"What's going on?" Wang Qi was shocked, "Moonset Liu Li? Why is she going crazy at this time?"

Moonset Liu Li is a Transformation Dragon Clan, even if turned into a longsword for healing, she's still stronger than most Golden Core Cultivators. Wang Qi didn't think she would easily clash with those ordinary cultivators. Moreover, high-order cultivators would know a thing or two about the Sea God type. If Xi is around, average high-order cultivators wouldn't rush in to 'slay devils and exorcise demons.'

Wang Qi quickly stepped forward. The space around him shifted, forcibly pushed to a high-dimensional plane, phase interference disappeared, distance and movement redefined. With just this one step, he crossed over to where Moonset Liu Li was healing.

The beach was filled with crisscrossing Sword Qi, and large rocks had been cut into sharp palm-sized fragments. Two cultivators were desperately trying to avoid the Sword Qi that Moonset Liu Li released. Both were at the Golden Core Stage, and one had strong Gang Qi formed by the Heavenly Song's extreme move "Inexhaustible Electromagnetic Rotation," barely enduring the Essence Sword Qi of Moonset Liu Li. The other one was in a perilous state, with each Sword Qi taking away a piece of his flesh.

This was still because Moonset Liu Li was not accustomed to Human Clan's longsword and Sword Qi attack methods, allowing the two to barely survive. If she adapted and integrated the essence of Dragon Clan Swordsmanship into herself, these two cultivators would probably be defeated in an instant.

Wang Qi took another step, using the Xiangyu Travel to appear "behind" Moonset Liu Li and reach for the sword hilt. When he transformed Moonset Liu Li into the Moonset Glaze Sword, he implanted a backdoor in her. Until Moonset Liu Li regained her dragon form, these backdoors would always exist. Wang Qi channeled mana through the backdoor. Soon, his mana, like a virus, quickly took control of Moonset Liu Li's essence.

Moonset Liu Li's voice echoed in his mind, "Let go!"

"What's gone crazy!" Wang Qi shouted in mixed anger and shock, "These two are Immortal Alliance cultivators! What are you trying to do?"

"Let go! Human Demon!" The thought that Moonset Liu Li transmitted into Wang Qi's mind carried a hint of dragon roar, showing true anger: "This is the scent of an Undying Beast! There's no mistake! They are Parasitic Beasts!"

Parasitic Beasts? Banished Immortals?

Wang Qi glanced at the two but didn't sense anything unusual. However, he knew that the usual methods couldn't reveal the secrets of Banished Immortals. Only the Dragon Clan, guarding this domain for two hundred million years and constantly battling passing immortals, had far superior means compared to the Human Clan to identify Banished Immortals. However, he didn't join Moonset Liu Li in killing them, instead forcibly suppressing Moonset Liu Li's essence and said, "Don't act rashly! They are stationed here by the Immortal Alliance!"

Moonset Liu Li was not stupid and quickly figured out the situation. She sneered, "You even thought of taming the Undying Beast?"

"It's not about taming. They are now Modern Cultivators, as long as they identify as Modern Cultivators, we cannot touch them." Wang Qi whispered, "This is our clan's rule! The Dragon Emperor painstakingly protects the Dragon Clan's civilization, shouldn't you also understand the importance of rules****?"

Moonset Liu Li was silent for a moment before snorting, "Undying Beasts cannot be domesticated. If you do not intend to tread the path of the Undying Beast, then stay away from them!"

Finally calming Moonset Liu Li, Wang Qi wiped the sweat from his forehead, almost collapsing. Moonset Liu Li's essence was many times stronger than Wang Qi's total mana, and even with a backdoor, suppressing her was not easy. He looked up, wanting to greet the two unlucky Banished Immortals, who were either just passing by or had encountered Moonset Liu Li's wild strikes. The small Banished Immortal who had been cut into a bloody gourd walked over with an unfriendly tone, "Kid, put down the longsword."

Wang Qi's face showed a moment of bewilderment, "Such a...classic treasure-robbing plot?"

This is the territory of the Immortal Alliance! Is there no Immortal Law here!

Fortunately, the other Banished Immortal who wielded the Heavenly Song stopped the first one, "Enough, Xiao Qiu, apologize and give thanks quickly! Can't you see?"
