Celestial Beast Taming

Chapter 488: Chapter 277: Promoted Fate Grid

The more blood Funnie absorbs from other members of the Blood Race, the longer she can use this Ability.

Funnie can absorb the blood of multiple Blood Race members by using her Crimson Absorption Ability.

She can seal multiple Abilities within Blood Crystals, allowing her to unleash a variety of Blood Magic in combat.

Without the blood of other Blood Race members to absorb, Funnie would be equivalent to having no Abilities at all, forced to rely solely on her own strength in a fight.

But if she has access to multiple Blood Race members with powerful Blood Magic to serve as her "ammunition"...

...Funnie can use numerous types of Blood Magic in battle.

Under such circumstances, one could say Funnie’s Crimson Absorption is the strongest Ability in the entire Blood Race.

With the constant stream of resources from Zhong Yi’s Soul-Controlling Flower, it would be no problem for him to cultivate a small squad of Blood Race members in the future.

The blood of the Blood Race can regenerate, so if these squad members were to provide Funnie with some of their blood on a daily basis, it wouldn’t have much of an impact on their own growth.

Zhong Yi was quite satisfied with this unique Blood Magic of Funnie’s.

The only thing that gave Zhong Yi a hint of regret was that Funnie only possessed a Purple Fate Grid.

However, judging from the opponents Zhong Yi had previously encountered in the Second Level Divine Wood Secret Realm...

...a Purple Fate Grid was already quite good.

The only person Zhong Yi had met in the Divine Wood Secret Realm with an Orange Fate Grid was Jin Zhan.

When Funnie heard Zhong Yi tell her she could choose her own gender, her heart couldn’t help but stir.

Within the Blood Race, there were the mixed-bloods who couldn’t control their emotions—creatures that were neither human nor ghost.

They were Creatures created when a High Blood Race member injected venom from their fangs into other forms of Life, which were then transformed and mutated by the poison.

These mixed-bloods were controlled by Blood Servants like slaves, their status even lower than the captive food raised by the Pure Blood Race.

As for the Blood Servants, they were created when a High Blood Race member took a liking to a particular mixed-blood.

The High Blood Race member would feed that mixed-blood large quantities of their own blood, helping it purify its Blood Race Bloodline.

Once their Blood Race Bloodline reached a certain level of purity, these mixed-bloods would gain control over their emotions and the Ability to command Blood Magic.

But a Pure Blood Race member like Funnie was an individual naturally conceived and born to the High Blood Race, just like other forms of Life.

Among the Blood Race, as a High Blood Race member’s Bloodline underwent continuous metamorphosis and Evolution, they could freely change their gender.

Thus, there was no concept of a "paternal" or "maternal" line within the Blood Race.

A newborn Pure Blood Race member had to be loyal to the direct blood relative who had given birth to them.

Their choice of gender was entirely subject to the will of that direct relative.

Before meeting Zhong Yi, Funnie had never imagined she could make such decisions for herself.

The indulgence and freedom Zhong Yi had given her made Funnie feel the respect and affection from her Creator—an absolute Upper-ranker.

"Master, you are so good to me."

"From now on, I will fight for you forever."

Seeing Funnie’s earnest expression, Zhong Yi placed a newly formed Soul Taming Seed from the Soul-Controlling Flower into her hand.

He gestured for her to eat the Soul Taming Seed.

The Blood Race was a very high-end Bloodline.

’After a Pure Blood Race member like Funnie eats the Soul Taming Seed, her improvement should follow her inherent Bloodline. It shouldn’t be as wretched and miserable as Ice Glaze’s Bloodline transformation.’

But after Funnie swallowed the Soul Taming Seed, her actual situation was completely different from what Zhong Yi had anticipated.

Funnie fell to her knees in agony, her flawless, pale body beginning to crack inch by inch.

Dark red blood steamed within her body, and a cloyingly sweet, metallic scent began to spread out from her.

The cloying scent gradually turned putrid, causing Zhong Yi to furrow his brow.

’This situation means that under the Soul Taming Seed’s influence, Funnie’s blood is being constantly refined, purging its impurities.’

’But the process is too violent. Funnie’s body is becoming distorted, almost inhuman in shape.’

At first, Funnie could still let out miserable shrieks, but gradually, the pain numbed her nerves, and her screams became silent.

Zhong Yi felt a pang of sympathy for the pain Funnie was enduring, but at the same time, he was secretly thrilled.

’For this to be happening to Funnie, it means her Blood Race Bloodline isn’t just being upgraded—it’s even showing signs of atavistic regression.’

As the Blood Race passed through generation after generation, the Bloodline grew thinner over time, even among the Pure Blood Race.

If the phenomenon of atavistic regression occurred during a Blood Race member’s Bloodline Evolution, it would result in a massive leap forward, both in the purity of the Bloodline and in the potential of their own Blood Race heritage.

Funnie’s atavistic regression would require a massive amount of Bloodline Energy.

Zhong Yi went to Funnie’s side, ignoring the blood flowing from her body.

He looked at Funnie, who had already lost consciousness from the pain. He forced her mouth open and had the Soul-Controlling Flower use its filaments to peel Bloodline Materials like the Blood Demon Litchi and stuff them down her esophagus.

This was to supply Funnie with sufficient Bloodline Energy during her atavistic regression and transformation.

Funnie’s atavistic regression and Bloodline transformation lasted for nearly two full days, and still it wasn’t over.

During this time, Zhong Yi fed her all the Flowing Soul Soil that the Soul-Controlling Flower had secreted.

Yet Funnie’s Bloodline transformation and atavistic regression did not end.

So, Zhong Yi simply fed Funnie another new Soul Taming Seed that the Soul-Controlling Flower had just formed.
