Chapter 766: Human King Bloodline

Ouyang Feng was fuming, almost spitting blood. He felt increasingly unlucky as the day went on, exasperated by this elder who insisted on claiming kinship and refused to let go.

Meanwhile, he had to keep a forced smile on his face, which was almost wrinkling from the effort.

The elder, however, continued to ramble on endlessly, filled with nostalgia. He recounted his glorious past with Jun Tuo from ancient times, all while praising Ouyang Feng for inheriting Jun Tuo's demeanor. He claimed they not only looked alike but also shared the same distinguished bearing!

Ouyang Feng grimaced, almost breathing fire, his smile stiffening. He couldn't stand it anymore. He felt as though he had been insulted four or five times and desperately wanted to spit in the elder's face.

"I'm so handsome, damn it! How can I possibly resemble Jun Tuo?!" Ouyang Feng wailed internally.

Fortunately, an elderly woman approached and respectfully reminded the elder that others were waiting for their bone age to be tested. Only then were the "uncle and nephew" pair separated.

It was clear that this astonishingly ancient elder held a very high status. Other cultivators at the Golden Body level showed him great deference, addressing him as Grand-master or Grand-uncle-master.

"Little Jun Tuo," the elder said, "we'll talk more later. I've already arranged for you to come with me to my courtyard, and we can have a heart-to-heart talk tonight."

At first, Ouyang Feng didn't react because he hadn't identified himself as a descendant of Jun Tuo. It was only when a group of people looked at him that he realized the implication.

Instantly, his face darkened beyond measure. Luckily, he was currently a black swan, otherwise, his expression alone would have given him away.

From a distance, Chu Feng secretly chuckled.

"No, thank you, Uncle," Ouyang Feng refused adamantly. "I'd rather stay by myself!"

"You little Jun Tuo brat," the elder chuckled, scolding him lightly, "there are benefits to staying with your old uncle. Within the rules, I can tell you about the important points for enlightenment in the Great Dream!"

In that moment, everyone's gaze fixed on Ouyang Feng, filled with envy and jealousy. Having such an uncle immediately granted him a significant advantage!

However, the person in question did not see it that way. He silently cursed, "You're the little Jun Tuo brat, your whole family are Jun Tuo brats!"

"Uncle," Ouyang Feng refused righteously, "I must avoid any appearance of impropriety. For the sake of fairness, I absolutely must stay on my own!"

At the same time, a group of Golden Body cultivators from the Great Dream Pure Land also looked at the elder, signaling him not to act rashly, lest they be accused of unfairness.

A group of people successively passed through the seven-story stone pagoda. Indeed, several were deemed unqualified, their bone age exceeding thirty years, a fact that even secret treasures could not conceal.

Chu Feng was surprised that female cultivators like Ying Zhexian and Yuan Yuan were not merely accompanying Ying Wudi and Yuan Shicheng to the Great Dream Pure Land; some female cultivators had also qualified.

He wondered, wasn't this meant to find a Dao companion for Qin Luoyin? Why were women also allowed to enter?

"These are additional invitations, given due to personal connections. Moreover, the Great Dream Pure Land genuinely needs highly qualified geniuses to enter that ancient palace, regardless of gender."

This was merely the first, highly stringent screening; they hadn't fully passed yet. Next, they arrived at another plaza for further examination.

In this area, several vines emitted a dark glow. Both their leaves and roots were as black as ink, and each was connected to a heritage energy tower.

"Soon, we will require a drop of blood from each of you. We have no ulterior motives; this has been the tradition for generations. I imagine your elders mentioned this when you came here."

These unusual vines were responsible for drawing blood and transporting it into the heritage towers. Soon, participants divided into several lines and cooperated fully.

Meanwhile, many people whispered, discussing the reason for this procedure.

"Clearly, this is to prevent hostile races from obtaining opportunities here. The Great Dream Pure Land has always been very cautious."

When Chu Feng heard this, he was startled. The Great Dream Pure Land was conducting a life detection. Even though bone age could reveal much, they were still not satisfied and wanted to conduct further checks.

"Indeed, the Great Dream Pure Land maintains a 'Blacklist.' Races and individuals on this list are not qualified to enter the divine palace for enlightenment; aiding enemies is forbidden."

Chu Feng felt a chill. Fortunately, he had come well-prepared!

Long ago, he had made various preparations, considering such a situation. At one point, he even contemplated temporary blood transfusions and sought advice from Uncle Ming on various cheating methods, but he always felt those carried hidden dangers.

It wasn't until his last tribulation on Earth that he acquired the Azure Divine Blood, which perfectly resolved all his concerns.

The path of evolution was inherently one of transformation. Ultimately, the essence of life would undergo a complete change, potentially even altering one's species.

And this time, after Chu Feng acquired the Azure Divine Blood, the genetic evolution was so drastic and different from before that it would be difficult to associate him with his former self.

Generally, the evolutionary trajectory of young cultivators is gradual; such a thorough transformation is impossible. Only by comparing their youth with their old age would such a stark difference be apparent.

Therefore, the Great Dream Pure Land's current detection method was very reliable, unless they encountered a mutant like Chu Feng.

Then, small amounts of blood, just a single drop from each, were drawn from the young cultivators. The heritage energy towers intermittently shimmered with light.

The Golden Celestial Spider's blood was formidable. After a single drop was extracted, a surge of malevolent energy emanated from it, and the phantom of an ancient demon spider lunged out, roaring.

"A Golden Celestial Spider with ancestral reversion, one of the royal bloodlines of the insectoid race from antiquity!"

The people of the Great Dream Pure Land were astonished and deeply shaken. The true form of an ancient ancestor had materialized from the blood, indicating its preciousness and the abundance of ancestral imprints within it!

With just this one test, the Golden Celestial Spider's status among the people significantly elevated.

"Divine Celestial blood," an elderly woman from the Great Dream Pure Land remarked, "unfortunately, it's not pure enough, far inferior to those who attended in previous generations."

A member of the Divine Celestial Race also arrived. Even a decaying camel is larger than a horse; no matter how fallen the race, its foundation remained. The Great Dream Pure Land showed considerable respect, even issuing another golden invitation to the race despite their Divine Son having been slain by Chu Feng.

However, this individual's power was not strong enough to compare with previous Divine Celestial Race attendees.

Many looked over. The direct descendant of the Divine Celestial Race's expression subtly changed as he suppressed a surge of anger, believing their decline to this point was thanks to the people of Earth.

"I swear, I, Luo Kunyu, will avenge my clansmen! Sooner or later, I will join the people of the Divine Celestial Palace and cleanse Earth with blood!" he swore publicly.

Chu Feng and the Toad secretly sneered. If they could eliminate him in the divine palace, they certainly wouldn't show any mercy.

Luo Kunyu then looked up at Chu Feng, showing a friendly demeanor, and said, "Brother Wu, next time you go to war with those barbarians from Earth, remember to call me. I'll invite the envoys from the Divine Celestial Palace and others to join us, and we'll exterminate them together!"

"Of course, of course," Chu Feng smiled, mentally putting a red cross over Luo Kunyu's name, already considering him a dead man.

"This is... black blood, it makes my soul tremble. What kind of bloodline is this?!" someone exclaimed, feeling an immense pressure.

In front, a terrifying aura surged forward, like a primeval demon god awakening, carrying a dreadful presence, or as if a rift had opened in hell, allowing a vengeful spirit to escape.

"The Corpse Race, Yan Luo!" someone whispered, extremely wary.

In ancient times, the blood of the Corpse Race caused concern and fear among all races. It was said that their blood carried forbidden power, and their ancestors were born from deceased bodies regenerating spiritual will. Their blood, having undergone the alternation of death and life, was mysterious, unpredictable, and endlessly powerful.

In just a moment, various powerful bloodline cultivators appeared here, many of them having undergone ancestral reversion.

"Ah, the blood carries a feathery brilliance, like a rain of ascending immortals, vast swathes rising into the air! Is this the fabled peerless Feathered Divine Physique?!"

A commotion erupted ahead. Even the Golden Body old monsters of the Great Dream Pure Land couldn't remain seated, gasping in private as they watched the young man being tested.

They realized that this was a seed-level individual, one of the few to be closely watched!

Many people looked forward. The Feathered Divine Physique possessed a slender figure, bright phoenix-like eyes, and wore pristine white robes. He appeared serene and exceptionally ethereal.

He glanced at Ouyang Feng, nodded in greeting, and his lips moved as he transmitted a message.

"Hiss!" Ouyang Feng was immediately taken aback. He informed Chu Feng that the Feathered Divine Physique was inviting him to the Pantheon in the primordial chaos, and this individual hailed from a broken universe.

The Toad then learned that the Pantheon was reputed to be the dwelling of gods, aiming to nurture myriad deities. Those with divine blood, saintly blood, or tyrannical blood physiques were all desired as divine seeds.

This also surprised Chu Feng, but he didn't put much stock in the so-called Pantheon. With the emergence of the Primal Chaos War God Palace, various factions were already fighting to the death for a single divine position; how could there possibly be tens of thousands of deities?

"Azure blood, could this be... Immortal Divine Blood!"

When Chu Feng stepped forward and his bloodline was detected, it shocked all parties. Many looked at him with changed expressions, realizing this was one of the Human King Physiques!

It was said that during humanity's peak, they commanded the universe, revered across the entire starfield, and occupied countless life-bearing planets.

In that ancient era, Dao Physiques traversed the sky, Battle Physiques emerged, Hegemon Physiques dominated the heavens and earth, and Divine Physiques scorned the world. Various races across the universe flourished, competing for supremacy.

At that time, several human physiques were renowned, having defeated Battle Physiques and subdued Hegemon Physiques, earning them the title of Humanity's Great Human King Physiques.

Among them, the Azure Divine Blood was revered as Immortal Divine Blood. The ancient individual who possessed this blood at that time was impossibly powerful and was one of the Human Kings.

No one had expected to detect Human King blood here. Everyone was shocked when they looked at Chu Feng; this physique had vanished for countless ages.

In that ancient period, it was incredibly glorious, suppressing the prodigies of all races, astounding both past and present.

However, precisely because of that excessive glory, which led to a peak followed by decline, various human factions migrated far away, scattered completely, and fell into decline. No longer was one family dominant, leading to the later situation of a hundred boats vying for supremacy and ten thousand races competing for dominance.

"Human King blood, this... it's truly unbelievable!" a Golden Body elder from the Great Dream Pure Land exclaimed, his voice trembling slightly.

Everyone showed surprise. No wonder Wu Lunhui was so powerful; possessing such Immortal Divine Blood was indeed astonishing.

It should be known that even today, records mentioning several Human King Physiques from the most ancient times can still be found in recently unearthed old manuscripts, revered by many powerful races.

The top ten races had specifically researched those physiques, seeking methods to counter them.

Chu Feng grumbled internally, "Human King blood, my foot! I haven't experienced any significant improvement compared to before."

In truth, this wasn't his innate blood; it was a result of a complete transformation achieved by consuming a divine medicine.

However, he couldn't say too much now. It was best if this added points for him; perhaps he would receive various preferential treatments.

"Brother Wu, come to my Pantheon in the primordial chaos," the Feathered Divine Physique secretly transmitted, overtly extending an olive branch. "We will allocate various resources to you then, helping you achieve godhood!"

"I can consider it, but let's discuss it later," Chu Feng replied, giving a non-committal answer, not wanting to offend anyone.

In fact, he intended to thoroughly study this azure blood, then completely eliminate it, reverting to crimson blood.

He had briefly spoken with Yao Yao's grandfather, and it seemed the elder also agreed with his approach.

The commotion in this area was considerable. The young people of the Great Dream Pure Land looked at Chu Feng with even greater eagerness, hoping to accompany him when entering the ancestral hall to share in the fortuitous opportunities.

At this moment, deep within the Great Dream Pure Land, the young Daoist priest, still in the womb, was vehemently cursing the Heavenly Venerate because he had encountered great trouble.

"Limitless Heavenly Venerate, your grandfather! This Daoist feels something is seriously wrong; I'm doomed!"

He muttered while tilting his ear to listen.

A middle-aged woman was speaking with Qin Luoyin, urging her to make a decision soon.

"The Ancestor said that this child is exceptionally gifted and unique. This could be a Heavenly or Immortal Infant, destined to make our Great Dream Pure Land stand proudly across the entire starfield. We must quietly give birth to him, concealed from everyone."

The "Ancestor" she referred to was an expert who could "reflect all heavens" from the Great Dream Pure Land, now residing in the primordial chaos. They had left two divine talismans for Qin Luoyin to choose from.

"This divine talisman can transfer the Heavenly Infant to another mother, and we can then carefully nurture him."

The middle-aged woman explained the first divine talisman's wonders.

Currently, Qin Luoyin was about to enter the divine palace, and it was impossible for her to go in while pregnant.

The young Daoist priest cursed inwardly, "Shameless old harridan! If you dare transfer this Daoist into a black dog's belly, I'll beat you to death when I'm born!"

At the same time, he worried about the "womb-haze" period, during which he would be muddled and unable to recall his past life for three years. He desperately hoped nothing would go wrong during that time.

"There's also another divine talisman that can seal the Immortal Infant within you for a hundred years, preventing him from manifesting or being born. We might also find various methods to make him even stronger, making his birth truly unimaginable."

Upon hearing this, the young Daoist priest immediately grew anxious, crying out, "Limitless Heavenly Venerate, you bald-headed fool! This Daoist will fight you to the death! After a hundred years, what will my rivals have grown into? This Daoist still needs to return to my original grand universe!"

Just then, a great bell tolled in the distance, indicating that the final list of qualified participants had been decided!
