Chapter 2358 Yearning For Bloodlines
The group gathered and looked at the rift, as they discussed what to do next. Since this was not an option to leave, they decided to leave it be and return to their base.
"We should head to the Second Offering Hall and go further west from there. That was where the most recent traces of Yao Changying and her people were, so we might be able to find more things there," Lin Mu said after listening to everyone.
"Agreed." Daoist Chu nodded.
"We aren't gaining any credits here anyway. There are basically no Chimeric beasts coming to this part of the plane." Qiao De had been an uneasy feeling that he hadn't gained any credits in a while, especially when he was very close to his goal of buying a bloodline of a guardian beast!
At the previous offering halls he had bought some of the things he had desired, and now his sights were set on the bloodline of the Guardian beast.
The same could be said for a few others too, as they had been buying what they desired. Those who wanted smaller things with lower cost had already obtained several of them, while those with costs items were yet to buy them.
Qiao De had both cheap and expensive things he wished to buy, and he had thus bought the cheap ones first that could be of a use early on for him. After all, if he didn't survive the trial, it would all be useless to buy something expensive he couldn't use.
This was certainly the case for a bloodline, especially one of a very high rank, such as something from the Four Guardian beasts.
If one wished to assimilate a bloodline like that, not only would they need a safe place, they would also need several people supporting them just in case things went bad. Plus, assimilating a bloodline like that could very well take a long time, and it was something they didn't have the luxury here.
As such, assimilating any bloodline would come with a risk that none of them could take here.
Not to mention, Qiao De didn't have the illusion of being able to assimilate a bloodline from one of the Four Guardian beasts anyway. He knew about his talent and that his chances of being able to do something like that were abysmally low.
Instead, a better option for him was to sell the bloodline and then commission a bloodline expert to seek out the perfect bloodline for him and help him assimilate that. Lady Kang's case was also similar, where she had no desire to assimilate the bloodline of a Guardian beast. With her wealth, if she really wished for it she could have very well obtained a bloodline on a similar level if not the same. But she hadn't, as her goals were simply different.
Though she knew of several others in her clan and among her people that could make great use of a guardian beast's bloodline, thus she would gladly obtain one for them if she could.
Crown Prince Feng Shun had already obtained the Immortal Paragon Ring thus, his credits were the lowest among them all, but they had still managed to reach over a hundred million again. He too, wished for a bloodline, but it wasn't that of a guardian beast. Instead, his eyes were on a bloodline that was a few notches lower and cost two hundred and ninety million credits.
It was the bloodline of a Thundering Hurricane Falcon!
It was a bloodline that was perfectly compatible with him, who had the dual elemental affinity of wind and lightning while also cultivating the Storm King Immortal Arts.
This was a bloodline that was accentually prescribed among the suitable bloodlines in the Storm King Immortal Arts, along with the others such as Thunder Pool Serpent, Fragrant Gale Crane, Rising Storm Eagle and several more.
The choice of the bloodline depended on factors such as what kind of Dao Embryos one was able to comprehend, as well as their bodily conditions.
Crown Prince Feng Shun had already been tested before and had determined a few options for him. Among them, the Thundering Hurricane Falcon was the best for him, but he had been unable to obtain it simply due to the fact that they had long since gone extinct!
In fact, even in the time of Storm King Shirong, only a few of them were left and the last of them had been killed by one of the descendants of the Storm King himself.
Thus, Crown Prince Feng Shun had been hoping to either find something else that might suit him, or in the long shot, wait till he reached the Celestial Realm and acquire a Celestial Level bloodline instead.
Of course, the latter was just a dream, but he still had hopes for it.
Though it wasn't too far off, as the Thundering Hurricane Falcon bloodline could actually evolve to become a Celestial level bloodline in the future too. It was said that it contained a trace of bloodline from the Roc race!
The Roc Race was a legendary race of bird beasts that was said to have affinities to multiple elements like Metal, Wind, Lightning, and even the Space itself!
As such, they had multiple variants and could control various elements, as well as Daos. The one that the Thundering Hurricane Falcon's bloodline could potentially evolve into was the Great Tempest Wing Roc!
If Crown Prince Feng Shun acquired and assimilated the Thundering Hurricane Falcon bloodline, his future path would be set and he wouldn't need to wander anymore. He could simply focus on gathering what was needed and proceed.
With such goals in everyone's minds, they made their way back to the base as they continued to harvest the credits.
What they didn't know was that the other party they were searching for had already become aware of their presence.
At the location of the Second Offering Hall, a beautiful woman with cold eyes stood along with what looked like hundreds of black robed individuals.
"The one eyed Chimeric Beast is dead…"
