Chapter 185: Undercurrents of Turmoil
Lu Xiao's gaze lingered for a moment on the preview of the bloodline inheritance ranking on the heavenly curtain.
His brows twitched slightly, revealing a hint of surprise!
But it soon turned into understanding.
"bloodline inheritance ranking... only taking the top ten?"
He whispered to himself, a trace of an interested curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
"This is much more'stingy' than the previous lists, and also... much more direct."
Thoughts whirled in his mind.
With his understanding of the Douluo Continent, if one were to speak of pure Bloodline rank and antiquity!
The Soul Beast Clan, which possessed countless ancient Divine Beasts and descendants of Ferocious beasts, undoubtedly held an overwhelming advantage.
The Silver Dragon King's Dragon God Bloodline, the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's mutated Bloodline accumulated over a million years and transformed by divine force!
Di Tian's Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Bloodline!
The Ice Sky Snow Maiden Bloodline of the Far North!
...Which one of these was not an earth-shattering existence?
He feared that the Soul Beast Clan would occupy most of the top ten seats.
As for the Human Soul Masters... Lu Xiao's gaze swept over the people behind him who were focused on their Cultivate under the ancient tree of life.
Compared to those Bloodlines originating from Divinities or ancient overlords, the Bloodline inheritances possessed by most humans were likely a notch inferior in terms of source rank and Innate characteristics.
"Among Human Soul Masters, the true Bloodline inheritances of Divinities..."
Lu Xiao's gaze seemed to pierce through the Void Realm, landing in the direction of the Spirit Hall Consecrated Hall and Sea God Island.
"The Seraphim Angel God Bloodline, the Sea God Bloodline... these two are qualified to compete with the top soul beast Bloodlines."
"As for the others... perhaps there are some unknown ancient hidden inheritances?"
He shook his head gently, no longer delving deeper.
How the list was ranked would follow the rules of the heavenly curtain.
What interested him more was what kind of psychological changes and entanglements of interest the announcement of this list would cause among the various parties on the continent, especially the soul beasts and those human forces with Divinity inheritances.
Bloodline is often the root of pride and prejudice.
"Let's see in seven days how this heavenly curtain will judge."
Lu Xiao withdrew his gaze and looked back at the vigorous cultivation scene within the academy.
No matter how the winds and clouds changed in the outside world, improving one's own strength was always the first priority... Spirit Hall, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Bibi Dong stared at the bloodline inheritance ranking preview on the heavenly curtain, a trace of gloom flashing deep within her purple eyes.
The anger originally accumulated due to being third on the power ranking list was now joined by new worries.
"Bloodline inheritance, only taking the top ten..."
Her voice was cold, "The Bloodlines of those Old freaks of the Soul Beast Clan originate from ancient times and are domineering and peerless. I'm afraid they will take more than seven or eight of the top ten seats."
She was not belittling herself.
The power of the Rakshasa God was indeed powerful, and had even begun to transform the essence of her life.
But this was more of an erosion and branding of divine force, which was still somewhat different from the Innate Bloodline passed down through generations and integrated into the bone, blood, and divine soul.
The power of the Rakshasa God currently only acted on her alone and had not yet formed a stable Family or power inheritance.
And on the side of Human Soul Masters, those who could contend with top soul beast Bloodlines were, in her view, only the Seraphim Angel God Bloodline inherited by the Qian Family, and the Sea God Bloodline of Sea God Island!
"Qian Daoliu... Qian Renxue..."
Bibi Dong's fingertips unconsciously tapped the armrest, her eyes complex.
Qian Daoliu's strength was already unfathomable. If he were to take another step forward by means of the rewards from this Bloodline list... the distance she had finally closed or even slightly surpassed by relying on the Rakshasa God Trial would likely be widened again.
And Qian Renxue, that daughter who possessed the purest Angel Bloodline, was an unremovable thorn deep in her heart.
She was also the most legitimate candidate to inherit the leadership of Spirit Hall in the future!
"And that Sea God Bloodline..."
A cold light flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes.
Bo Saixi presided over Sea God Island, and her own strength was among the best of the Limit Douluo. If her Bloodline received rewards again... the influence of that isolated overseas island might further penetrate the continent... Hall of Worship.
Qian Daoliu's long golden hair drifted slightly in the Holy Light flowing through the hall.
He looked at the preview of the Bloodline list, and in his eyes, which were as calm as an ancient well, a clear light finally flickered, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake.
"bloodline inheritance ranking, tracing the source and rank?"
He spoke slowly, his voice carrying an unprecedented solemnity and a hint of hidden expectation.
"The Seraphim Angel God Bloodline inherited by my Qian Family is the direct Bloodline left in the mortal world by the First-rank Deity God of Angels, pure and noble."
"In terms of source rank, it should not be inferior to any existence."
Gold Crocodile Douluo on the side hurriedly agreed, his tone excited: "The High Priest is absolutely right. The Angel God Bloodline is a divine Bloodline, transcending the mundane!"
"There will surely be a place for my Angel Lineage in the top ten of this list, and there is even hope to strike for the top three!"
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, but was not dizzied by his subordinate's flattery.
He had lived long enough and seen enough!
He deeply knew that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in this world.
"Golden Crocodile, one must not be blindly optimistic. The Soul Beast Clan has deep roots. The Silver Dragon King is a Clone of the Dragon God, and the source of her Bloodline can be called God King level, likely even above the Angel God Bloodline."
"The Deep Sea Demon Whale King has gone through a million years of accumulation, and his Bloodline has already mutated and sublimated; he likewise cannot be underestimated."
"And that Big Dipper Academy might also possess Bloodlines or Origins that we cannot understand."
He paused and continued: "Among Human Soul Masters, besides my Angel Lineage, the Sea God Bloodline inherited by Bo Saixi of Sea God Island is also a First-rank Deity inheritance, which can be said to be on par with us."
"In addition... perhaps there are some hidden ancient Bloodline inheritances that are unknown."
"This list only takes the top ten, so the competition will inevitably be extremely fierce."
Despite saying this, a long-lost fighting spirit ignited in Qian Daoliu's eyes.
The glory of the Angel God must not be tarnished!
This Bloodline list was exactly the perfect opportunity to manifest the supremacy of the Angel God Bloodline to the entire continent!
He believed that as long as they were on the list and obtained rewards, with his comprehension and piety towards the Angel God's divine force, he would certainly be able to take another step forward.
He might even pave a more solid path for Xue'er!
"Wait and see, and be prepared."
Qian Daoliu said finally, closing his eyes, the Holy Light around him becoming increasingly dense... Sea God Island, in front of the Sea God Hall.
Bo Saixi, in a red dress, stood in the sea breeze, gazing at the heavenly curtain.
When she saw the bloodline inheritance ranking, a shallow and confident smile appeared on her beautiful face.
"Bloodline inheritance—the grace of Lord Sea God flows within my Bloodline."
She whispered to herself, her voice carrying supreme piety for the Sea God and the pride of being the High Priest.
The Sea God was also a First-rank Deity, wielding authority over the ocean.
As the mortal spokesperson and High Priest chosen by the Sea God, the Sea God Bloodline inherited by Bo Saixi was undoubtedly one of the top Bloodlines in the world.
Whether from the perspective of source, purity, or the ocean affinity and divine force control power it bestowed, it was enough to look down on the crowd.
"Although soul beast Bloodlines are strong, most are ancient remnants with scattered inheritances or carry a fierce aura."
"A divine Bloodline naturally has its sanctity, purity, and order."
Bo Saixi thought to herself.
"The Angel God Bloodline and the Sea God Bloodline should be at the peak of Human Soul Master Bloodlines, but I wonder how that heavenly curtain will judge the relative merits of the two?"
"And that mysterious Big Dipper Academy, will someone there be on the list?"
"In any case, there should be no suspense about the Sea God Bloodline being on the list."
Bo Saixi collected her thoughts and turned to look at the Seven Sacred Pillar Guardians standing solemnly.
"Within seven days, strengthen the connection with Lord Sea God and maintain the purity and activity of the Bloodline. This is an opportunity to manifest the glory of the Sea God, and there must be no mistakes."
"We respectfully obey the High Priest's order!"
The seven guardians responded in unison, their eyes also full of expectation.
The glory of Sea God Island was closely related to their faith and Bloodline.
