Chapter 48: Step 2

Step 2

Step 2 of Xue Bai's ascension to becoming a god was to acquire a high-level bloodline. He had already had the Martial Veins. However, as high rank as they were, they were only half of his plan. To complete his plan, he needed a bloodline on an equal level or higher than his Martial Veins, and this Secret Realm had one.

The paw print on the cliffside was the entrance to a Secret Realm made by an Immortal-level cultivator who died in betrayal before reaching his full potential. So in order to find someone to avenge him, he created this Secret Realm with his bloodline as the reward. And Xue Bai knew how to get it without any trouble.

The Immortal Cultivator in question had a Low Heaven Grade Nine-Tailed Fox bloodline. And just like the one from folklore, he was also gifted with fire manipulation and illusion skills. And that's what Xue Bai was after.

During his time in the game, he was a High Black Grade Alchemist, and in order to utilize his skills, he needed a fire affinity. However, with Spatial Element Martial Veins, Xue Bai almost gave up until he remembered this Secret Realm.

Through this bloodline inheritance, he could be in control of two separate elements while also gaining god-level talent in illusion arts. And even better, Xiao Mo didn't know of this opportunity, as Xue Bai had only found this out during his time scouring random areas in the Baishen Plane for fun.

So with the entire Secret Realms layout memorized in his head, Xue Bai climbed the tallest tree near him to see where he currently was.

"I'm on the forest region's edge, so the Secret Realm's core shouldn't be too far from me." Xue Bai mumbled to himself.

Dropping down from the trees canopy, Xue Bai ran out into the plain in front of him towards the sky-piercing mountain in the distance. The core, along with the Bloodline Inheritance, was there.

However, with reward came risk, and before Xue Bai could reach his destination, a 3-meter-long snake sprung out from the tall grass toward him.

Though he was slightly surprised by the sneak attack, Xue Bai didn't lose his calm and pulled Pale Blue from its sheath and took a swipe at the tail that was attacking him. And fortunately, the beast was also in the Blood Exchange Realm, and with the Space Element infused into Pale Blue, the snake's tail was severed entirely.

At the pain of losing its tail, the snake jumped back and constricted the muscles on its lower half to stop any more blood loss. Then, now with life safe for now, the snake raised its scaled head to find the assailant, only to see Xue Bai sprinting off, ignoring its presence.

Though Xue Bai could easily kill the snake, that would risk other beasts coming to pile on and then threaten Xue Bai's life. Also, killing the snake would net Xue Bai nothing giving him even less incentive to continue the fight.

Nothing in this Secret Realm mattered to Xue Bai except the Bloodline Inheritance.

Along the way, a few more beasts tried to swallow Xue Bai whole, but luckily, they were all in the Blood Exchange Realm, giving him the ability to either kill them in one slash or mutilate them before running away.

Finally, after almost half an hour of running, Xue Bai made it to the cave where the Bloodline Inheritance was. Like everything in the cultivation world worked, there would be a trial, so before entering headstrong, Xue Bai sat down and meditated.

From the Spiritual Qi tidal wave, Xue Bai has already reached the 6th stage of the Vein Transformation Realm. But while waiting for the twins to break through and using the residual Spiritual Qi in the air, he had pathed out almost 70% of the way to the 7th vein, his lungs.

So with the about two hours he had before the Dukes, and his father arrived, he planned to break through to the Seventh Stage. He needed the lung vein to pass the trial, as he wouldn't be able to reach the Trial area without it.

While Xue Bai was cultivating, Wang Yichen, Yan Zhenyu, and Duan Zhen had gathered all of the juniors in the Muscle Nourishing Realm and below.

However, seeing the members of the Wang Clan, Xue Feng was confused, "Duke Wang, why isn't your son here? I heard that he had awakened a Middle Black Grade Martial Vein a few years ago. Surely a Secret Realm like this would be something he shouldn't miss." With his son promising to wipe out the Wang Clan member who would enter, not seeing Wang Yichen's pride and joy here to die disappointed Xue Feng, though he didn't show it on his face.

Remembering his son Wang Yichen gave a hearty laugh, "Oh, that untalented bastard is preparing to break through to the Bone Strengthening Realm, and I couldn't bear to pull him out of his closed-door seclusion."

Though he was belittling his son with his words, he was obviously praising him. This year Wang Yichen's son, Wang Yu, would be 15, and with him preparing to reach the Bone Strenghting Realm before 16 was definitely heaven-defying speed.

Xue Bai felt that Xiao'er was a genius for the Southern Continent, but she was already 16 and only at the Fourth Stage of the Muscle Nouirshing Realm. While Wang Yu almost reaching the Bone Strengthing at 15 was something that could only happen in the Central Continent.

'Look at your hubris. My son is still ten and at the peak of the Vein Transformation Realm! He could reach the Bone Strenghting Realm at 13 or even 12!' Xue Feng bragged mentally.

However, on the outside, he was mounting his Bear Griffin, ready to guide the three groups to the Secret Realm.

Duan Zhen, Yan Zhenyu, and Wang Yichen had already boarded their airships and started to follow Xue Feng as he flew toward the Secret Realm.

With their modes of transportation, it didn't take them long to reach where the forest outside of Snowy Wind City.

"You all stop here. The rest will be on foot." Xue Feng said while ordering his mount to lower itself to the ground.

"Xue Feng, I speak for the rest of us when I say that walking would lower our standing." Wang Yichen spoke rudely.

Though Duan Zhen and Yan Zhenyu didn't say anything, they agreed.

Ignoring their resistance, Xue Feng continued, "This forest is the best hunting ground near Snowy Wind City. If I land Xiao Xiong and you all land your airships, that would make most of this hunting ground a dead zone for any demonic beasts."

"So you'll all walk with me or not come at all." Xue Feng spoke dominantly.

Ever since he had consumed the Yggdrasil fruit and was given a chance to reach the Xiantian Great Realm potentially, he regained his youthful confidence.

And the three noticed that, but how could they know of what Xue Feng had encountered? They merely guessed that he was getting cocky after breaking through to the Seventh Stage of the Domain Lord Realm.

So with the confident Xue Feng and the probability that Xue Feng wouldn't guide them if they didn't get down. So the three heads of their clans exited their airships along with the juniors they had brought along.

"Alright, you brats, you'll be walking the rest of the way. Follow Duke Xue, and make not to lose sight of any of the four of us." Duan Zhen yelled out authoritatively.

In The Great Xuan Empire, each Duke had a different personality. Xue Feng had a confident and youthful style, Wang Yichen had an arrogance and disdain for the mortal world, and Yan Zhenyu was sly and a slick businessman, but Duan Zhen had the authority and skills to keep them serving under him. So with one order to the clan juniors of each group, Duan Zhen had made sure to instill a sense of submissiveness into them.

'This is as much as Father can buy you, Bai'er, ' Xue Feng thought as he led the group towards the Secret Realm Entrance.

Meanwhile, as they landed outside the forest, Xue Bai's eyes opened. Then, exhaling a breath of turbid air, Xue Bai felt different.

Now with the lung vein, the air he was breathing in was purer and even filled with Spiritual Qi. So now, even by just breathing, Xue Bai could improve his cultivation, however, by a negligible amount.

"Time for the trial." Xue Bai spoke to himself as he entered the cave.
