Chapter 9: Bloodline

  "It is recommended that the host exchange the following bloodlines."

  As soon as he finished speaking, a virtual screen appeared in front of Yi Chi, listing several bloodlines recommended by Yi Tang.

  Witch Tribe Bloodline: As one of the two main protagonists in the Primordial Era, they were born with incredibly strong bodies that could shake the heavens and earth. At their strongest, some ancestors had a true body that was tens of millions of meters tall, capable of shattering ancient star systems with a single punch. It is divided into 7 exchange stages.

  Huang Wu - Zhong Wu - Yu Wu - Da Wu - Shen Wu - Zu Wu.

  Demon Bloodline: As one of the major evil forces in the West, demons have always occupied a high position within the demon tribe. As one of the strongest races in the demonic realm, their powerful physical strength is their battle advantage. Born with twin wings, they possess the ability to fly innately and are the favored children of darkness, able to exert 200% of their strength when fighting in the dark. The demon horns on their heads represent their power, with more horns signifying greater strength.

  The devil's bloodline can be strengthened up to thirty-sixth-rank Demon God.

  Titanic Bloodline: As a member of the Four Elemental Gods, the Titans have massive bodies like mountains, and during the Great War between gods and demons, they demonstrated terrifying abilities like meat grinders.

  Rock Titan - Dark Iron Titan - Bronze Titan - Silver Titan - Gold Titan - Platinum Titan - Diamond Titan - God of Titans

  Bimon bloodline...

  Hulk lineage...

  Metal Mutant Bloodline...

  ......

  From the highest matching bloodline of the Wu tribe to the ordinary bloodline that almost everyone can exchange, Yi Tang introduced more than a hundred bloodlines to Yi Chi, making his eyes dizzy.

  "Wow, that's incredible! One punch can shatter the stars, it's too powerful, I reckon even the gods of this world could be killed with one punch? And that demonic bloodline is also incredibly powerful, it can be exchanged for up to thirty-six Demon Gods, just hearing the name makes me know how formidable they are. As for the others, they're a bit inferior compared to these two." Yiqi said in awe.

  "Host, these are just for your reference. You can't exchange them now, especially some bloodlines that don't match this universe at all and can't be exchanged." Yitang rushed out again to disturb Yichi's excitement.

  "Can't exchange? Why is that? And this bloodline still needs to merge with the universe?" Yi Chi was stunned, he was just excited about exchanging for a witch tribe bloodline later, now hearing Yi Tang say it can't be exchanged, he couldn't help but rush.

  "Don't worry, it's not that the exchange can never be made, but the host currently doesn't have energy crystals. Having only energy points is not enough to exchange for a bloodline. As for those bloodlines that conflict with this universe, I don't recommend the host exchanging them, as it may cause the host to be rejected by the universe."

  Energy gemstone? Rejected by the universe?

  Yi Chi's eyes spun dizzily at this.

  Without waiting for Yichi to ask, Yitang knew the doubts in Yichi's heart and took the initiative to answer them.

  "What is known as an energy gemstone is a stone that contains special energy, and in this universe, it has a name called 'Sheng Ge'." It seemed to be giving Yiqi time to fully accept what was being said, so Yitang stopped speaking at this point.

  Divinity?

  Yi Chi wasn't an inexperienced person, he naturally knew what a divine aura was.

  That is the life of a god, without divinity, it cannot be called a god. In this universe, whether you are a demon or human, "god" is a universal term. As long as your power reaches this boundary, then you have become a god. The first step to becoming a god is to condense your own divine aura. Divine aura is the symbol of becoming a god and also the source of a god's powerful strength.

  So, something so important that it's obvious even with just a toe's thought, must be very difficult to obtain. Yi Chi thought that he had to exchange his bloodline and suddenly, his originally passionate heart cooled down by more than half.

  "Alright, Yi Tang, go on. I can take it. After all, I had nothing to begin with, and now you've given me hope. It's just that the road is a bit more rugged and difficult, but I can handle it." Yi Chi was silent for only a few seconds before continuing. Although he felt regretful that he couldn't exchange for his desired bloodline sooner, he knew that eventually, he would be able to do so. Besides, retreating in the face of minor difficulties wasn't Yi Chi's style.

  "Well, I'll continue. Your second question, host, is why some bloodlines are rejected by the universe. This is actually quite simple. This divine universe belongs to the Western sphere of influence, and the laws within this universe are also the Western creation laws. However, some bloodlines belong to the Eastern sphere, so they will be rejected by the laws. This is a very normal phenomenon."

  "If that's the case, then I won't be able to exchange for that powerful bloodline?" Yi Chi felt a great sense of regret. For someone who yearned for power like him, being unable to exchange for such a strong bloodline was like having his favorite toy snatched away from him as a child.

  "Yes, and besides, forget about cultivating the truth, host. In fact, the compatibility between the demonic bloodline and you is the same as that of the witch tribe's bloodline. Moreover, this demonic bloodline is special and won't be inferior to the witch tribe's bloodline, so you can rest assured."

  Even Yichi, who didn't know much about Yitang, knew that if Yitang didn't explain clearly, it meant he didn't want to say anything, and Yichi didn't want to force him. Besides, what's the point of knowing now when they can't even afford to exchange anything?

  Rubbed his temples, today's events had quite an impact on Yi Chi, and now he was still a bit nervous.

  "Alright, I roughly understand. You can go rest now, I'll call you if there's anything." Yi Chi said to Yi Tang before getting up and opening the door.

  It's also a pity that it's been half a day and no one has come to see Yi Chi, which makes Yi Chi even more disappointed with this family.

  "Alas, no matter how good they appear to be, in their hearts, they still look down on me. After all, this is a world where might makes right, and someone like me, who appears to be useless in others' eyes, naturally wouldn't have many people caring about him." Yi Chi sighed with emotion, also feeling sorrow for the original Yi Chi who had been replaced by him. This guy had always thought that his family was harmonious and united.

  He moved a chair over, poured himself a cup of tea and sat down, taking an occasional sip. He had a hunch that someone would be coming to look for him soon.

  Because lunchtime is almost here.

  As expected——

  "Squeak~~~~"

  The gate of Yechi Yuanzi was opened by a small servant.

  Seeing the fifth young master sitting at the end of the courtyard, the little servant who was specifically responsible for the daily life of the fifth young master was startled.

  Although I felt a little guilty for sneaking out and neglecting this Young Master Ye, but as soon as I thought that the person in front of me was just a waste, that bit of guilt immediately disappeared.

  They all knew that the young master had no status in the Ye family and was also very weak. Sometimes, he wouldn't even dare to do anything when the servants scolded him a few times. Although the head of the household was more affectionate towards this useless young master, everyone knew it was because of Madam San's sake. The head of the household just felt guilty towards Madam San, so that's why he treated this useless son slightly better.

  Thinking of this, that young fellow felt he didn't need to be afraid of Yi Chi, so he walked in with a big and bold attitude, his demeanor making it seem as if he were the young master himself.

  "Ah, Fifth Master, you're up. Do you want to eat something? I'll go get it from the kitchen." Walking up to Yi Chi, without bowing, he stood upright and greeted him before heading towards the kitchen.

  This time, Yi Chi was furious. His servant had run out without permission, and he knew it wasn't the first time either. The guy almost went out every day without even greeting his master, let alone asking for leave. If it were in the past, Yi Chi would have tolerated it, but now that his cheap old man was not around, and he himself was a useless good-for-nothing without any martial arts skills, how could he possibly discipline this servant who had the protection of the Seven Star Escort?

  But now it's different, Yi Chi not only has the strength of the nine-star Dou Shi, but also his father who supports himself has come back, yet this guy still dares to be so arrogant towards him today.

  Yi Chi is popular even if he were a mud man, let alone being a flesh-and-blood person.

  "Halt!" He suddenly stood up and stopped the little servant who was about to leave.

  The little servant stopped and turned around, looking at Yi Chi with a puzzled gaze, his eyes still filled with disdain.

  He didn't believe a useless thing could do anything to him.

  "What's this? Fifth Master calling out to me, what's the matter?" The young servant still said in a manner as if he didn't know better.

  "What's wrong? I'm the young master of the Yi family, and you can't even respond to my call? What kind of virtue do you have? Speak! Where did he go?" Yi Chi said coldly.

  "I'm going out to take care of something." The young servant replied vaguely, his eyes disdainfully fixed on Yi Chi.

  "Hmph, just in time to try out my skills. You're the one who came crashing in here, you deserve to die." Yi Chi thought disdainfully.

  "Are you still considering me your master?!" Yi Chi suddenly accelerated, grabbing the young man's collar with one hand and performing a swift over-the-shoulder throw.

  "bump"

  "Cough..."

  Struggling to get up, Xiao Shuai looked at Yi Chi in horror, his hands trembling as he pointed at Yi Chi, his face full of disbelief.

  "Hum, you're courting death, come and die."

  He didn't intend to let Yi Chi off with just a bounce, approaching the young servant in front of him, and before he could react, his right leg whipped out in a kick, directly striking the young servant's chest.

  With only two "cracks", the young servant's chest was kicked by Yi Chi, breaking several ribs, and he crashed into the courtyard wall with a mouthful of blood.

  "Hmmph!"

  He put down his right leg and coldly stared at the little servant who had fallen to the ground, without a hint of sympathy.

  "Is anyone there? Are you all dead? Didn't you hear such a big commotion?" Yi Chi shouted towards the door.

  As expected, as soon as Yi Chi's words fell, several servants rushed in, took a look at the young man covered in blood, and ran forward to pay their respects to Yi Chi.

  "Master Wu, is there anything you'd like me to do? Please give your orders." The servants didn't dare lift their heads to look at Yi Chi, and they remained kneeling in front of him.

  "What else can be done." He said, pointing to the little servant who was lying on the ground and had fainted: "This slave dares to disobey me, take him out and beat him to death with a stick, and throw his corpse out to feed the dogs."

  After finishing speaking, Yi Chi ignored the few pale-faced servants and turned back to his own room.

  As for whether the next few underlings will follow his orders, he doesn't care. What he wants is for them to spread their own methods around, so that any random cat or dog won't dare be presumptuous in front of him.
