Douluo Continent: Not enough bloodline? Make up for it with brains

Chapter 542 Facing the Universe

How did you know?

Zang Xin asked in a deep voice.

The Vast Ocean Universe Cover is considered a secret.

Although the higher-ups of the Sea God Pavilion should all be aware of it, very few people actually know of its existence.

Tang Wulin came directly to Zang Xin's door, wanting to obtain the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, which naturally excited Zang Xin.

Tang Wulin took a deep breath.

"Palace Master Zang Xin, I desperately need this Vast Ocean Universe Cover, so I've been searching for its whereabouts. I hope you can lend it to me."

Zang Xin's expression changed slightly, as if he was weighing whether to hand over the Vast Ocean Universe Cover to Tang Wulin.

The current Vast Ocean Universe Cover is not the same as the Vast Ocean Universe Cover of yesteryear.

Before Tang San, the Heaven Dou Empire had forgotten the use of this thing and regarded it as a symbol. But Zang Xin is different now. Even without the divine power left by Tang San, the Vast Ocean Universe Cover still has many wonderful uses.

This is a magical artifact in itself.

The Hell Plane.

Xu Yuan and Lex studied the situation of the Lord of Hell.

"The bloodlines of the four divine beasts have fused very smoothly within you," Lex concluded.

"The four bloodlines—dragon, phoenix, black tortoise, and white tiger—each have their own characteristics. These characteristics merge together to form your current bloodline."

Xu Yuan knew that Lex was explaining things to him.

Studying bloodlines means extracting only the mechanisms of their abilities, without fusing them with the bloodline itself.

That's why Lex dragged him into studying the Blood Mage system.

With a specimen whose bloodline had been fused to an extremely high level by the Lord of Hell, Xu Yuan's understanding of bloodline power, especially the bloodlines of these four divine beasts, improved rapidly.

Among them, the bloodline of dragons is the most prominent.

The dragon bloodline of this Lord of Hell comes from the Hell Plane, and this bloodline is very pure, without the bloodline fluctuations left by the Dragon God that Xu Yuan was familiar with.

In other words, this dragon's bloodline is at least unrelated to the Dragon God.

This also indirectly indicates the location of the Hell Plane, at least outside the former Dragon Realm.

Xu Yuan was naturally most familiar with the dragon bloodline. He studied the mysteries of the bloodline from the Lord of Hell and quickly made progress.

time flies.

Three months later.

"That's it?"

Xu Yuan was slightly unsatisfied.

He looked at Lex, wishing the guy would say that further research was needed.

"As I said, I had already completed the initial design. I just wanted to refer to the current mature Blood Master system and further refine it." Lex rolled his eyes.

"All right."

Xu Yuan had no choice but to halt this research effort.

To be honest, he now has a completely different understanding of the dragon and phoenix bloodlines. Without fusing the two bloodlines, he already possesses some of the power of both.

Dragon, power, phoenix, rebirth.

With the aid of these two properties, Xu Yuan condensed the Qi and Blood Rune 'Power', while further perfecting the Life and Death Rune.

Xu Yuan also comprehended a characteristic from both the Xuan Turtle and White Tiger bloodlines. The Xuan Turtle bloodline provided Xu Yuan with the characteristic that allowed him to condense the rune 'Overlord' for the Qi and Blood Overlord Body Soul Ring of the Heavenly Origin Five Elements Spear Martial Soul, while the White Tiger bloodline provided him with the rune 'Break' for his Piercing Spear Soul Skill.

This research resulted in him gaining three more runes and significantly improving the Life and Death Rune.

That alone is enough, and it's more than enough to make up for the three months Xu Yuan wasted helping Lex perfect that so-called forbidden spell.

"What kind of forbidden spell do you have?"

For three months, Lex did not demonstrate the forbidden spell. He only did various analyses and made changes, but did not actually cast the forbidden spell he mentioned.

"Similar to the cultivation of blood masters, with the help of forbidden spells, human cultivators can assist beastmen. Human cultivators possess the bloodline power of beastmen and perfectly integrate their abilities, while beastmen receive assistance from human cultivators to develop deeper potential in their bloodline."

This is truly a replica of the Blood Master system.

Xu Yuan was speechless.

This Lex is definitely not an ordinary god-level magician.

This is the core of a cultivation system across planes, and he actually managed to replicate it. Even if Lex had prepared thoroughly before coming, this result alone was astonishing.

"Where's your spaceship? Let's go. I'll give you the coordinates of the wormhole."

As he spoke, strands of silk appeared before Lex, outlining a cosmic star map.

The location of the Hell Plane was marked, and then Xu Yuan saw the arrangement of planets around him, which were probably used for positioning. Then, at a certain point, a wormhole was marked.

He took out the spaceship.

The mecha, which was over ten meters long, quickly transformed into a spaceship.

A small spaceship quickly took shape, and with Xu Yuan's encouragement, the spaceship soared into the sky and broke out of the hellish plane.

Once in space, using the planets marked by Lex to roughly determine his location and direction, he flew towards the wormhole.

The Abyss is essentially a mecha, and a mecha in Xu Yuan's vision. It is part of the mecha pilot and can be perfectly activated and operated, rather than a cold, lifeless machine.

As the spaceship ventured deeper into space, the Lord of Hell departed with a complex expression.

Xu Yuan and Lex's research essentially treated him like a specimen, which was a great humiliation for a plane overlord. However, their research also brought him benefits, allowing him to understand the essence of his bloodline and helping him see the path ahead.

Even Xu Yuan, who had also been trapped under the limitations of the plane, offered him several suggestions.

Either you break through as the hellish plane advances, or you enter the starry sky, become a starry sky life form, and then break through.

These two methods represent the two methods with the highest probability of the Lord of Hell breaking through to godhood.

Even so, the Lord of Hell is not prepared to choose either of these two methods.

He has his own path.

Now, with a deeper understanding, he feels that his previous plans have a higher chance of success.

The vast universe.

This was Xu Yuan's first time traveling in space.

The starry sky outside the spaceship, though beautiful and dazzling, is extremely dangerous.

Amidst the interplay of starlight bursting forth from an unknown distance, the magnificent starry sky is nothing but an allure.

Beneath this temptation lies endless crisis.

If it weren't for his breakthrough to the Divine Origin Realm, Xu Yuan would have felt extremely uncomfortable even just extending his spiritual power out of the spaceship. The dense primordial stellar power was incredibly violent, like layers of sandstorms blowing by, causing immense pain to his spiritual power.

Even after breaking through to the Divine Origin Realm, Xu Yuan still felt this stinging sensation.

However, this was not without its benefits. Xu Yuan's spiritual power already contained stellar attributes, and after this tempering, it became even more refined, and the stellar attributes within it were also stronger.

"The universe is vast and boundless; even a simple voyage can yield something," Xu Yuan remarked.

At the same time, he was also on guard.

After all, behind these endless opportunities lies a crisis that may appear at any time.

This vast starry sky is like a colossal beast from the abyss, capable of swallowing him whole.

After some thought, I've decided to stick to the old tradition: I'll continue updating this book while simultaneously starting a new one, running two books at the same time.

My new book, "Konoha: This Ninja's Will of Fire is Too Pure," is available for those interested in Naruto fanfiction. Please support it!
