Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

The moment Lin Wu unleashed the full potential of his Aura the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle could feel a powerful presence coming from it. She could also feel a hint of suppression from it.

'His bloodline… it is comparable to mine… or even superior… but how? I have the bloodline of the legendary Vermillion bird?' The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle wondered.

There were more questions that arose in her mind, but she could not come to any conclusion. The only thing that was concrete was the fact that Lin Wu was no common beast and those rulers of the forest could not compare to him, either.

Even that old 'enemy' of hers' the Olive Viper King was nothing compared to him, even though both of them had obtained the bloodline from the same meteor. She now knew that she should not take Lin Wu lightly even if he was much weaker than her in terms of cultivation base.

Having shown his cultivation base, Lin Wu calmed down and realized that he had gotten a bit too fired up. This was strange for him, and he didn't know why he had acted like this.

'Is this the bloodline's effect? It cannot handle others insulting it…' Lin Wu thought to himself.

~Ahem~

"Well then, we should get to our task I suppose." Lin Wu said, wanting to change the topic.

"Okay." The Eagle beast replied simply.

"So where do you think the next place where the Bloodline crystal is?" Lin Wu questioned.

The Eagle beast closed its eyes and stayed like that for a few minutes before opening them back again.

"There are multiple of them that I can sense. The closest one is in that direction though." She said, pointing to the east.

"To the east huh…" Lin Wu felt strange as that was the direction he had originally come from and had even checked it himself for about two days.

But in that two days, except for the common beasts, he had not found anything else. This confused him, as he wondered if there were a lot more things that he missed or not.

"Since you say it's there, let's check it out." Lin Wu stated.

"Alright," The Eagle beast said before changing her direction to the east.

~Shua~

A strong gust came from her wings as she flapped them, blowing away the nearby clouds in one go. Even Lin Wu was slightly affected but was able to manage using the wind attribute spirit Qi to negate the effects.

"Seems like she has some attainments with wind element as well. Though it should be from her original bloodline of the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle. I've seen her use that strong fire, so that should have come from the bloodline of the Vermillion Bird." Lin Wu analyzed.

This incited a bit of curiosity in Lin Wu's mind.

"System, can you scan her now?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

——

CHECKING FOR INTERFERENCE: Interference field at a minimal level

SCANNER FUNCTION: Available

——

"Perfect! So the interference field of the Dread Coil marsh is stronger if I get closer to the ground, huh." Lin Wu said.

"Alright then, scan the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle and tell me what new data is seen." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

——

SCANNER ACTIVATED: Target selected 

TARGET IDENTIFIED: Scan successful 

Target: Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle 

Cultivation Base: Shell Initiation Stage of the Dao Shell realm

Bloodline: 1. Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle [complete]

2. Vermillion Bird [Partially awakened]

Elemental Affinity: Wind, Fire 

Info: The Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle are a species of rare bird type Spirit beasts and they usually live in tall mountains. Their main ability is the elemental manipulation of wind in which they are innately talented. They can use wind attribute spirit Qi right from their birth, but their control gets better the more their cultivation base increases.

The strongest recorded Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle was in the Immortal Ascension realm.

The system has also detected the bloodline of the Vermillion bird within the Silver Beak Sky Soar Eagle, but it cannot estimate how much it has affected the beast. The system will need additional updates to the data banks in order to have a better analysis.

Lin Wu read the entire thing and found it way more than he had expected it to be. The information that was additionally added to the window was taken from the libraries of the royal library of the Ling kingdom. Apparently, it was part of their restricted section and it was one of the old books that looked like it had not been opened in a long time.

Lin Wu reckoned that no one bothered to check the books in a long time, which caused them to just forget about the beast. Though he wondered if it was such a strong beast just with its own bloodline, then how would it appear in the millennium forest. 

It was not even its native habitat, not to mention the fact that just from its original bloodline it should have been stronger than the Twin Lights Liger King and could have become the stoniest beast of the forest.

"Hmm… system why is it that its progress was halted even though it had a better bloodline than the Twin Lights Liger King?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

ANSWER: According to system's analysis, this may be the result of the vermilion birds' bloodline. From the data, the system extrapolated the vermilion bird's bloodline is quite superior to the beast's original bloodline and maybe having an antagonistic effect on it.

This may have caused it to become suppressed on its own and thus preventing the beast from progressing in its cultivation normally. This is a common problem that happens with beasts that have multiple bloodlines as they become incompatible.

In fact, most of the beasts in the world have multiple bloodlines that have mixed so much that they become very weak. Not all beasts can make their bloodline compatible and this becomes a shackle for them.

The host would have been in the same position, but the system and modify the bloodlines enough to make them compatible with the host's body.
