Chapter 1517: The Immortal Bloodline
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The color of the blood in Ruyan Liu’s body was originally red, but after being boiled by the power of magma, it had become blue, then purple; and in the end, it was golden.
The golden blood was boiling incessantly and causing rumbling noises; the noises resembled celestial sounds and seemed to have reverberated through the entire void.
Everything in the room started to vibrate. The tables, chairs, stools, and even the tea cups were clinking and clanking. The sky was crumbling, and the ground was sinking, it was as if an earthquake was taking place. There were cracks in the air and the earth, spreading to and hovering over everything in the surroundings like a spider web.
Qingfeng Li was in awe. He could feel profoundly the powerful nature of the immortal bloodline in Ruyan Liu’s body.
It was a power that extended throughout the world, across heaven and earth, and surpassed the ancients and shocked the contemporaries. Vaguely, a golden Time River had appeared. In it, a strong Immortal Empress could be seen. She traversed the starry universe, breaking a planet with a mere punch, and shattering a galaxy with just a stomp.
Qingfeng Li knew that the beautiful Immortal Empress was Ruyan Liu from the legends. That was who she was in her previous life.
After her reincarnation, Ruyan Liu’s bloodline power still remained in her body, only that it was not activated.
Now, through Qingfeng Li’s distinctive method, her Immortal Bloodline had been completely awakened.
The Immortal Bloodline in Ruyan Liu’s body was beyond powerful. It diffused towards all directions, looking as though it was going to destroy everything.
Qingfeng Li ran the vital essence in his body as he pinched his right palm, creating a white defensive light veil to hover over Little Apple’s room. It was to prevent Ruyan Liu’s energy from impacting their daughter.
It took a long while before Ruyan Liu could awaken her bloodline. In fact, it took exactly an hour for the bloodline in her body to become fully activated.
In the space above Ruyan Liu’s head, a projection of Time River had emerged. Indeed, the bloodline power that she had activated was Time River. It not only gifted its user the ability to implement time and space, be thoroughly acquainted with the past and present, but also the capability to utilize the power of time and space.
As Ruyan Liu opened her eyes, her pupils began emitting rays of golden light.
Embedded in the golden lights were time and space, interwoven talisman scriptures of rules and regulations. Qingfeng Li was caught in the lights and became immobilized.
Qingfeng Li’s face was changed. He realized that his body had been frozen and was unable to move. A shred of uneasiness appeared on his face as he felt a little frightened.
Qingfeng Li then started conducting the vital essence in his body, wanting to break through the time-stabilizing force on his body. Yet, it was to no avail. Everything was within Ruyan Liu’s control.
Luckily, Ruyan Liu had very limited strength and had only just awoken the power of bloodline now. A second later, Qingfeng Li’s body was able to move freely again.
“Wow, Ruyan, how powerful! The bloodline you’ve awakened actually includes rules of the world, time, and space.” Qingfeng Li couldn’t help but praise Ruyan Li’s ability.
Qingfeng Li’s words brought on great happiness to Ruyan Liu’s pretty face. She responded, “I didn’t expect the bloodline power I awoken to be so strong either. There is not only Time River, but the ability to control time and space… although just for a short, limited period of time.”
Ruyan Liu was utterly delighted in her heart. Before, she was like a weak little bird, always trying to seek protection under Qingfeng Li’s wings. Qingfeng had come to her rescue every time when she was in danger and had paid great price for the sake of keeping her safe.
Qingfeng Li smiled gently as he removed the defensive light veil from Little Apple’s room. Ruyan Liu had returned to normal as she had hidden away the bloodline power in her body.
Qingfeng Li walked over to Ruyan Liu and asked, “Now that you have awakened the bloodline power, did that give you any cultivation techniques?”
Ruyan Liu laughed happily as she replied, “Of course. While I was awakening the bloodline power, I had also awakened the Power of Time and Power of Space.”
Her words brought a feeling of elation to Qingfeng Li’s heart. He certainly knew of the powerfulness of the Power of Time and the Power of Space. They were capable of freezing and immobilizing people.
Wail, wail…
Suddenly, Little Apple’s loud cries started resounding in the next room.
Ruyan hurriedly stood up and explained, “Little Apple must be hungry. She hasn’t been fed for a long while now.”
As Ruyan Liu opened the door to the next room and walked in, sure enough, she found Little Apple waving all her limbs in the air wildly. Her two little snow-white hands were crawling around, looking for milk.
Ruyan Liu quickly took hold of a bucket of powdered formula and started mixing it with hot water for Little Apple.
Upon finishing her milk, Little Apple stopped acting up and seemed to be in a good mood. She couldn’t stop giggling as she played with Ruyan Liu and Qingfeng Li.
Qingfeng Li stayed in the room with Ruyan Liu and Little Apple for a long time before leaving. Certainly, he had more business to deal with.
After walking out of Ruyan Liu’s villa, Qingfeng Li returned to Xue Lin’s.
As soon as he entered the villa, Qingfeng Li noticed something strange about the atmosphere. Someone was sitting in the living room, and it was not just any person – it was Fengwu Cao. She was wearing a tight black suit, sitting upright in great postures, and her face was stunning – all had made her look even more beautiful.
“Ms. Cao, what brought you here?” Qingfeng Li asked as his eyebrows furrowed.
Qingfeng Li surely knew that Fengwu Cao was a special presence in Huaxia. With her unusual identity, she had access to many of Huaxia’s hidden secrets.
Fengwu Cao got up from the couch and spoke, “Qingfeng Li, I have just received news regarding some unusual happenings in the Forbidden District of the Kunlun Mountain. There have been reports saying that a ferocious beast has re-emerged and is now endangering the Huaxia World of Self-cultivators. Many self-cultivators have been killed in the nearbys of the Forbidden District of Kunlun Mountain.”
“Ms. Cao, do you know what this ferocious beast is?” Qingfeng Li asked with his brows even more furrowed.
Qingfeng Li could tell that this was no simple beast, as its appearance had worried and frightened even Fengwu Cao. This ferocious beast would at least have to come from Ancient Era; otherwise, with the force of the world of self-cultivators in Huaxia, it would have been subdued immediately.
Fengwu Cao’s face became stiffened with seriousness as she replied, “Qingfeng Li, I’ll tell you this much… it is one of the ten great ancient ferocious beasts – Taotie.”
“What? Taotie!? He escaped from the Hell?” Fengwu Cao’s words brought noticeable changes to Qingfeng Li’s face – his eyes were now filled with horror.
Qingfeng Li was now Lord of the Huaxia Eastern World of Self-cultivators. There was no competition for him in this world anymore, and even the Western World of Self-cultivators had been demolished by him. Yet, upon hearing “Taotie”, the name of one of the ten ancient ferocious beasts, he was still dumbfounded.
Qingfeng Li remembered it very clearly. In order to save Little Apple, Qingfeng Li ventured into the Kunlun Mountain Hell to look for the Perish Immortal Fruit. It was then he met Taotie on the second level of hell.
Taotie was after Qingfeng Li at the time, but he had almost gotten killed by Qingfeng Li instead.
In the end, Taotie followed Qingfeng Li to the aisle of the first level but was stopped and forced back by the Power of Thunder and the Power of Seal from Heavenly Dao. As a result, it failed to finish off Qingfeng Li.
