Transmigration: Children of The Plane

Bloodline Infusion

"How could I not know what a Bloodline Core is?" Huli Jing snorted. "If anything, I should be questioning why you, a mortal child in a mortal plane, know what a Bloodline Core is."

Xue Bai smiled at the question. Bloodline Cores were another high-level Immortal World technique that the player who learned under Feng Huang posted on the forums.

Beast Bloodlines, when in humans, often made the cultivator more beastlike and savage while also bringing out the personality of the Bloodline. However, with Bloodline Cores, you could avoid that side effect while keeping all the benefits.

"Then, Senior, do you know how to mutate a Bloodline Core?" Xue Bai asked another question.

"No, why would I ever want to mutate my own honored Bloodline?" Hulu Jing asked with disgust apparent on his face.

"Because it's weak, senior. Though it is in the Middle Heaven-grade, compared to the others in the same rank, it's weak. You haven't even reached atavism yet. So how can you even call it honored." Xue Bai replied coldly.

Angered, Huli Jing released some pressure on Xue Bai, "You are an interesting child that shouldn't be in a mortal world. However, don't think that will prevent me from killing you here. My remnant soul can survive another million years. I don't believe another prodigy won't stumble upon my Secret Realm."

Struggling to withstand the pressure, Xue Bai spoke, "Senior, I am doing it for you. Listen to my method."

"My patience runs thin, and other cultivators have entered the Secret Realm. Finish speaking your business or continue through my trial." Huli Jing lost the amicability he had earlier.

"Senior, do you know of the Celestial Void Fruit?" Xue Bai asked. After receiving a nod, he continued, "Then, senior do you know of a mighty figure with the Celestial Void Nine-Tailed Fox Bloodline?"

"How can I not know of the Void Fox Emperor? He's the only surviving member of the Heaven Trampling Sect. And a figure at the Peak of the God Great Realm." Huli Jing spoke with reverence in his eyes.

"Then do you think Senior Void Fox Emperor gained his Bloodline Naturally?" Xue Bai asked.

Hearing the question, Huli Jing couldn't answer truthfully, but putting together the clues from Xue Bai's words, he answered no.

"Correct, he also mutated his Bloodline Core! And you know how he accomplished this?" Xue Bai asked as he pointed at Huli Jing.

"With your Bloodline and my Martial Veins. During the creation of his Bloodline Core, he infused the Elemental Essence from his Marital Vein into his forming Bloodline Core, mutating it into the Celestial Void Nine-Tailed Fox Bloodline. Isn't that genius!" Xue Bai spoke excitedly.

Huli Jing didn't reply immediately as he was thinking of what Xue Bai had said. Though it sounded crazy, after thinking it through, it was plausible. Taking away all of the Elemental Essence from your Martial Veins was possible, but it served only detrimental side effects, and to take it all in and pour it into your forming Bloodline Core was nothing short of madness.

One small mistake during the infusion could not only destroy your Bloodline but could also leave you with a new Martial Vein without its previous element. But to survive and become a mighty figure like the Void Fox Emperor, how could he play life safe and not take risks?

"Child, you're not lying to me, are you?" Huli Jing increased the pressure on Xue Bai to force out the truth.

"If I am lying, may the Heavens Smite me down this moment." Xue Bai swore a dao oath to prove his truthfulness. He had already annoyed the Immortal, and this was the only way to let Huli Jing believe him.

And after waiting for almost five minutes with nothing happening, Huli Jing agreed.

"Follow me, child. I'll help you through the infusion process." As he spoke, Huli Jing walked toward a normal-looking wall.

Xue Bai, though confused, followed the apparition. There he saw that the wall in front of him faded away like an illusion to show a cave abode with only a meditation mat.

"Sit on the mat. And grit your teeth. This is going to be the most painful thing you'll most likely ever experience." Huli Jing bluntly said.

Xue Bai sat down but was a little apprehensive about feeling pain. So before Huli Jing put his hand on his back, Xue Bai shyly asked, "Can you numb the pain for me."

Not even bothering to answer the question, Huli Jing pulled a bottle out of nowhere and handed it to Xue Bai, "Swallow this, and you can inherit my Bloodline."

Inspecting the bottle for a moment, Xue Bai thought it looked alluring. The liquid in the bottle was a red hue, so clear it was almost see-through.

"Stop looking at my Bloodline, and swallow it." Huli Jing berated from behind.

Xue Bai took a deep breath before downing the bottle in one gulp. He knew it was going to be painful, so he decided to do it all at once.

And Huli Jing was right. Almost instantly, he felt his entire body start burning up from the inside. It was almost as if he was melting. His old human blood was boiling and evaporating while slowly being replaced by foreign blood, and the pain from it was slowly driving Xue Bai to insanity.

However, whenever Xue Bai thought he would lose his grip, a cool feeling would flow into him from his back, numbing the pain.

Huli Jing was soothing his soul to make sure Xue Bai wouldn't go mad. And this was slowly tempering Xue Bai's soul.

The soul was something untouchable for any cultivator under the Xiantian Realm and would only ever increase in strength alongside your realm. But through this torture, Xue Bai was strengthening his soul before the Xiantian Realm.

This process of destruction and healing of Xue Bai's body and soul continued for another three hours until Xue Bai felt his body cool down.

"Senior, why must you be so petty? Is it because I called your Bloodline mediocre?" Xue Bai asked bitterly.

Throughout the entire process, Xue Bai wanted to pass out. However, Huli Jing never let him go unconscious once and made him stay awake through the whole ordeal.

"If you passed out, you would have missed out on the golden opportunity of the soul tempering. Don't you feel everything is clearer now? Your soul originally was already as strong as someone two realms higher than you. But now it's almost as strong as the average cultivator in the Qi Sea Realm." Huli Jing commented.

Unconvinced, Xue Bai opened his eyes, and true to the man's words, everything looked clearer. He could see everything in front of him clearly. Even how many cracks were in the wall of the cave abode. And the memories of his previous life that had become blurry were as clear as if it happened yesterday.

"Then can I snuff out people's souls with a glance? Or maybe even turn people into slaves with a command?" Xue Bai's otaku nature came out as he asked.

"Nonsense, where did you even get those ideas from? You can't even use your soul as a weapon until the Soul Fusion Realm. Until then, the only advantages a strong soul will give you are only supplementary. With comprehension or adaptability in battle. Those things you mentioned are possible, but you aren't strong enough to do them yet." Huli Jing lectured.

"Then what about the Bloodline? Was the infusion successful?" Xue Bai asked curiously.

"Look at yourself in the mirror before you say, was the infusion successful." Huli Jing replied sarcastically.

"Look in the mirror?" Xue Bai muttered confusedly before walking to the mirror and witnessing his new appearance.

"Oh my god, I'm even hotter!" Xue Bai exclaimed. "No, this is bad. Before, people would back off after hearing I was a man, but now, some people might even kidnap me knowing I'm a man."

Before, Xue Bai was undoubtedly beautiful with his full red lips, long eyelashes, and pale jade-like skin. But now, every aspect that made him beautiful was magnified by a few times, and he even gained a seductive aura.

His lips were now almost blood red, his eyelashes batted themselves even if he didn't do it manually, and his skin somehow looked even more jade-like. Each hair strand of his was glossier and flowed down his back like a waterfall.

But the most eye-catching of all was the snow-white fox ears and the nine tails that had become a part of him. His tails pointed upwards, unwilling to touch the ground as if they were royalty walking on a red carpet. And his ears twitch ever so slightly, giving someone the urge to rub them.

As Xue Bai was dumbstruck by his new looks, Huli Jing in the back sighed, "Child, this is the fate of the holders of this Bloodline. We are cursed to be beautiful forever."

"Was it like this for you, too, Senior Huli?" Xue Bai asked as he found a brother in arms.

"Too much so, child. I had been hunted down by Dual Cultivation and Demonic Sects for more than half of my cultivation journey. Even if I could prove myself to be a man, they still wouldn't let me go. And not only men were after me but also women. Women in the Immortal Realm are surprisingly bold, just straight out declaring me to be their boy toy. It was a new experience for me when I first experienced it." Huli Jing sighed while reminiscing about the past.

"Well, enough of me. It's time to create your Bloodline Core. The faster we do this, the less your personality gets warped from the Beast Bloodline." Huli Jing spoke seriously.

Afraid of going through the pain once again, Xue Bai asked, "How much is this going to hurt compared to the Bloodline Inheritance?"

"It shouldn't hurt at all." Huli Jing responded, "However, you need to be focused the entire way through. As one slip up could detonate your Bloodline and waste your Elemental Essence."

Nodding seriously, Xue Bai sat back down on the meditation mat, ready for the final step of his ascension to godhood.
