Swallowing the starry sky, my clones can evolve infinitely.

Chapter 290 Soul Bloodline and Heart Bloodline

Shen Mu flew towards Leichi City at lightning speed, like a dazzling streak of light.

The speed was so fast that it seemed to tear a dazzling trail through the air. He Lu's gaze was fixed on that figure on the city wall, while Chong Er quickly relayed the message to the city lords.

Boom!

Three dazzling streaks of light erupted instantly in the center of Thunder Pool City, and the three city lords received the news.

In the next instant, three figures appeared directly on the city wall. The city lord, Jiulong Haotian, who was in the lead, narrowed his eyes slightly, filled with anticipation for this powerful figure who might be a descendant of the Witch God World.

Deputy City Lord Cheng Suichuan secretly plotted how to befriend Shen Mu, thinking about which of his precious treasures could be given as a gift upon meeting him.

Meanwhile, the deputy city lord, Cang Sheng, tightly clutched the illusionary longsword, hoping to spar with Shen Mu after they got to know each other.

Shen Mu quickly arrived at the foot of the city wall of Leichi City. He stood tall and straight, exuding a powerful yet restrained aura.

He Lu and Chong Er hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. He Lu bowed slightly and said, "Welcome back, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's reputation is now renowned throughout the city."

Shen Mu smiled gently and said, "I just did what I could."

Shen Mu was already mentally prepared for being watched by others.

At this moment, the powerful figures in the city all learned of Shen Mu's return. Many powerful God Emperors surged forward, including some whom Shen Mu recognized.

However, Shen Mu's attention was not on them, but on the other three figures on the city wall.

The aura fluctuations of these three individuals far surpassed those of other beings at the Perfected God Emperor level.

The bald man who was in the lead stepped forward and looked at Shen Mu.

"Brother Origin, I am Haotian of the Nine Dragons. This should be our first meeting."

Jiulong Haotian had a faint smile on his face and an inexplicable Zen-like aura about him, somewhat similar to the temperament of Thor among the four Earth brothers.

"Origin, greetings to the three city lords," Shen Mu said with a smile, clasping his hands in greeting.

Standing next to Jiulong Haotian, Cheng Suichuan, the deputy city lord, also smiled and said, "We were quite surprised when we heard about Brother Yuanqi's deeds not long ago. We never expected that a great power would suddenly appear in the city."

The deputy city lord, Cang Sheng, who was holding a divine sword, was even more taciturn: "If there is a chance, let's have a spar."

Such a direct challenge left Jiulong Haotian and Cheng Suichuan speechless.

Cheng Suichuan quickly said, "Brother Qiyuan, please don't misunderstand. Second Brother is usually rather aloof and only willing to spar with the strong."

"I understand, I understand."

Shen Mu looked the Lord of Cang Sheng City up and down. As a swordsman, he concealed all his sharpness, truly hiding his sword's edge.

Jiulong Haotian smiled and said, "Brother Origin, we have prepared a banquet. Would you do me the honor of joining us?"

"Since the three city lords have invited us, it is only right that we accept their invitation."

……

A grand banquet began, and all the powerful figures in the entire Thunder Pool City came to participate.

After all, the money came from the three city lords, and with their strength, they were never troubled by food shortages. In the entire Thunder Pool City, there were no more than twenty people who truly didn't worry about food shortages.

Since it was a rare treat for the city lord to treat everyone, they naturally had to eat as much as they could, without any shortage of food.

At the head of the hall, at the most luxurious dining table, were only Shen Mu and the three city lords.

The four were exchanging words, while an invisible array enveloped the area, isolating them from any intrusion.

"Ah, Brother Origin, you've ascended four times?"

Cheng Suichuan, who had transformed into human form but was still covered in silver armor plates, looked at Shen Mu with some shock.

The reactions of Jiulong Haotian and Cangsheng were similar.

The common people have ascended twice, and Jiulong Haotian has only ascended from his own Origin World to the True Spirit Holy Realm.

"Indeed, I was born into the real mortal world, into the most ordinary of creatures."

To be precise, if we include the fact that his main body and his clone ascended to two different worlds, he should have ascended five times.

Cang Sheng sighed and said, "Although I was also born from the mortal world, I am only one level away from being a true god."

Jiulong Haotian laughed and said, "I was born at the Chaos Realm."

"I am different from you; I was born at the God-King level."

Cheng Suichuan sighed with some emotion: "If my grandfather hadn't forcibly severed my cultivation level, I would have been a low-level Chaos Origin life form when I was born."

After expressing his feelings, Cheng Suichuan turned to Shen Mu and asked, "What level were the four worlds that Brother Qiyuan experienced?"

Shen Mu didn't hide anything, gave a general description, and then said with a smile, "I was able to come to the Holy Realm not by ascending, but by being sent here."

"As for who this person is, I don't know either. However, in our original world, there was a lord named Yuan who left behind a legacy. Perhaps it is this person."

As soon as Shen Mu finished speaking, Cheng Suichuan quickly stood up: "Brother Qiyuan's hometown has the legacy of Grandpa Yuan?"

Grandpa Yuan?

This time it was Shen Mu's turn to be surprised. Cheng Suichuan actually knew Yuan? It seemed like they knew each other more than just casually.

Is the background really that powerful?!

"Indeed, the legacy left behind by this senior Yuan is called the Lieyuan Technique."

"I see, I see."

Cheng Suichuan looked enlightened: "Before I came to the Holy Realm for training, I heard my grandfather say that someone had inherited the secret technique of will created by Grandpa Yuan. It turns out that it was Brother Origin."

"No wonder Brother Origin possesses such a powerful will and the ability to annihilate souls."

Shen Mu quickly shook his head and said helplessly, "This is a misunderstanding. I do not have the potential to inherit Senior Yuan's Lieyuan Technique. The one who inherited this unique skill is my close friend."

"As for my own secret techniques of will, they initially contained some of the mysteries of the Lieyuan Technique's Na Yin chapter, but as I later perfected them, they have completely broken free from the influence of the Lieyuan Technique."

Shen Mu's words stunned Cheng Suichuan, who found it hard to believe.

"With such talent and ability, Brother Origin, how come he didn't inherit the Elemental Technique?"

The conversation between Shen Mu and Cheng Suichuan made Jiulong Haotian and Cangsheng somewhat envious.

This Origin Brother was exceptionally talented and gained the attention of a cultivator lord.

Xiao Cheng is even more straightforward, being a descendant of a cultivator lord, and judging from the situation, he is probably the most valued one.

Although they may not reach the Hunyuan realm, no one can say for sure that a certain prodigy will inevitably transcend the shackles of the mortal world.

However, with the guidance of a cultivator lord, the chances of transcending the confines of the mortal realm are naturally greater.

At this moment, Jiulong Haotian spoke up: "I observe that Brother Origin has fused nine kinds of Primordial Bloodlines. I wonder if Brother Origin has ever experienced the Witch God Origin World?"

Shen Mu shook his head and said, "No, I obtained these nine bloodline powers in a special world called the Great Thousand World."

"This realm isn't even considered a source world; it's essentially a weakened version of the Holy Realm."

"I see."

A complex expression flashed across Jiulong Haotian's eyes, as if he were reminiscing about old friends from his hometown.

A moment later, Jiulong Haotian sighed, and then a special jade tablet appeared in his palm, flying to Shen Mu's front.

"This is..." Shen Mu looked at Jiulong Haotian with some confusion.

Jiulong Haotian smiled and said, "This is the cultivation method of our Witch God Origin World, known as the Witch God System, which can freely accommodate and refine different bloodline powers."

"Brother Origin's bloodline power was obtained under the rules of that Great Thousand World, which must have some hidden dangers. You can refer to the cultivation methods of my Witch God system."

The rules of the vast world that allow for the forging of multiple bloodlines are similar to the ironclad rule of hunger in the cultivation holy realm, where even god emperors can starve to death; both are ineffective outside of this world.

"Thank you for bestowing this method upon me, City Lord."

Shen Mu immediately became serious and bowed slightly to Jiulong Haotian.

Jiulong Haotian smiled and waved his hand, his smile conveying a sense of great tranquility.

"Brother Origin, you are too kind. If one day you are able to transcend the shackles, I hope you will visit the World of the Witch God and see my family."

Seeing that Jiulong Haotian had taken the lead in trying to win him over, Cheng Suichuan immediately lost his composure as well.

"Brother Origin, stop following Grandpa Yuan and come with me. My grandpa is the most generous."

Cheng Suichuan patted his chest and then said, "Brother Qiyuan, is there anything you need? Just say the word, and I can get you anything."

"If I can't get it, then no one in the entire Infinite Chaos Space can."

As soon as Cheng Suichuan said this, a strong sense of nouveau riche swept through the room.

Shen Mu was both amused and exasperated: "Brother Cheng, there's no need for that. I've never even met Senior Yuan, and I don't know which senior is responsible for my ability to travel between different worlds. It's just that it's most likely Senior Yuan."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Suichuan's eyes lit up.

"That would be even better. Since Grandpa Yuan hasn't intervened, you certainly can't be considered one of his subordinates. Become my brother, and you'll have everything you want."

Shen Mu shook his head and declined, saying politely, "I'm sorry to trouble you with your consideration, Brother Cheng, but I really don't need anything."

Cheng Suichuan raised an eyebrow slightly and said with a smile, "Brother Origin, you should reconsider. The cultivation method that Brother Long just gave you is quite special. Could it be that Brother Origin isn't interested in the Soul Dao bloodline?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Mu's expression changed.

"A primordial life form with a soul path?" Shen Mu couldn't help but ask.

Cheng Suichuan laughed heartily: "Of course there are. Every Hunyuan rule has a born lord-level being, without exception."

"Of course, if Brother Origin wants the blood of that born lord-level being, I can't get it."

"But he is not the only one whose bloodline contains the mysteries of the Dao of the Soul."

As he spoke, Cheng Suichuan's palm flashed with light, and a special ball of light appeared. Inside the ball of light was a strange drop of blood, which took on the shape of a ferocious dragon.

"This is the true blood of the descendant of that Soul Dao King. Although the rules it contains are incomplete, it is still a Soul Dao bloodline at the semi-primordial level. Does Brother Origin really not need it?"

[Note: Bloodline is bloodline, and principle is principle. Even if the primordial god of the soul path can directly mobilize the power of the primordial soul, it does not mean that he has completely comprehended this rule, such as the primordial god of spacetime.]

To fully comprehend this is to reach the level of a throne-level being in the Eternal Land, far surpassing ordinary lords, like the Infinite Serpent, no weaker than a cultivator lord.

Shen Mu immediately stood up, his face serious.

"Since Brother Cheng values ​​me so highly, then I shall accept your offer without hesitation."

"If I am able to break free from this shackles in the future, I will definitely choose to join the forces that Brother Cheng belongs to."

Shen Mu said that once he achieved the Chaos Origin Realm and comprehended the ultimate soul, he could advance from an ordinary Chaos Origin Realm to a Lord-level Chaos Origin Realm in just a few days.

Among cultivator lords, they all address each other as fellow Daoists.

"Great, Brother Origin is so generous!"

Cheng Suichuan was also very happy. He had won over a powerful figure valued by Grandpa Yuan with just a drop of the true blood of a high-level Hunyuan life form. It was definitely a good deal.

……

After the banquet, Shen Mu went straight to his cave dwelling to try to cultivate the Witch God System given to him by Jiulong Haotian.

The cave was quiet and secluded, with source stones that emitted a soft glow embedded in the surrounding walls, providing some light to the entire space.

Shen Mu raised his hand and waved it, and the corpses of the God Emperors who had achieved perfection in their lives, obtained from this hunt, were neatly arranged in front of him.

Shen Mu took a deep breath, his eyes revealing determination and focus. He sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, chanting incantations, and mysterious runes flew from his fingertips, swirling around the corpse.

As the incantation was performed, a faint halo appeared on the corpses. Shen Mu suddenly opened his mouth and inhaled, drawing the energy from one of the corpses into his mouth like a serpent.

"First, separate the water and fire bloodlines!"

Shen Mu formed hand seals, and his own bloodline began to burn. According to the secrets of the Witch God's cultivation method, he extracted the old bloodline and fused it into a new one.

This process is extremely damaging and prone to failure.

As the two primordial bloodlines of water and fire burned out, the corpses of two strange semi-primordial beings appeared before Shen Mu.

The two corpses were translucent, resembling a large fish, with a dreamlike quality shimmering on their bodies, faintly transforming into the phantom of butterflies.

The Butterfly Kun is a type of naturally occurring primordial life form in this world, containing the bloodline of the Heart-Image Dao. They are rare, and Shen Mu only encountered these two during his hunting trip.

"And then there's the soul bloodline."

Shen Mu focused his mind and body, pulling himself into absolute control to avoid any possible oversights.

The crystal-clear spiritual blood emerged, taking the form of a demonic dragon.

The fluctuation of just a single drop of blood made Shen Mu feel dizzy, as if his soul was being dragged away.

This is the power of a single drop of blood from a high-level Chaos Origin life form, enough to suppress and kill all semi-Chaos Origin beings.

"The Witch God Ritual, commence!"

Countless ancient and mysterious Dao patterns appeared around Shen Mu's body.

These Dao patterns instantly transformed into a bizarre phantom world, enveloping Shen Mu himself and the drop of demonic dragon blood within.

The power of Shen Mu's bloodline evolved, and under the influence of the Witch God Sacrifice, it formed a special secret power that surged into that drop of demonic dragon blood.

The moment it merged with the true blood, this secret power was almost completely annihilated. Only a wisp of secret power escaped, carrying a trace of the soul's true blood's 'root' back to Shen Mu's divine body.

Boom!

An extremely faint bloodline fluctuation took root in Shen Mu's divine body; it was pure soul primordial power.
