Chapter 901: Some Secrets of the Dou Emperor Bloodline
"Senior, what's wrong with you?"
Looking at Mang Tianchi, who was so agitated he couldn't speak, Lin Feng was instantly puzzled.
That old man suddenly became so excited.
"Could it be that he's been in seclusion too long, and now the surroundings stir his feelings, making him miss his wife?"
Thinking of that, Lin Feng instantly thought it was quite possible.
Then he patted the senior's shoulder and said, "Senior, you don't have to miss your wife so much. After all, you've already emerged from seclusion, and you can go back to see her soon; we don't need to rush."
"Hurry your sister! I have no wife, I'm ***, how could I think of her?!"
Facing the senior's close‑up "mockery," Mang Tianchi's defenses shattered, and he shouted at the senior.
"Ha?"
Hearing that, Lin Feng was instantly stunned.
After all, more than a hundred years ago, the senior was already a high‑rank Dou Zun powerhouse and had founded Canaan Academy.
After all these years, how did the other side manage to come over?
"Senior, I'm just curious. As a junior, I don't see you as someone who wants to cultivate in seclusion, so why have you never married?"
Thinking of the question, Lin Feng's eyes lit up as he looked at the senior and asked with great curiosity.
After all, he was truly curious about this matter!
As for Mang Tianchi, upon seeing the senior's inquisitive expression, he roared, "The Dou Emperor clan's bloodline is an extremely precious thing. Do you understand? How could I casually consort with other women? If the bloodline gets polluted, that would be a huge incident!"
"Moreover, those Nine‑Nether Earth Serpents are a typical example. Because of reckless *** pairing, their bloodlines are almost exhausted now, and they're not much different from ordinary demonic beasts."
At this point, Mang Tianchi's face was filled with helplessness.
In daily life, the Dou Emperor clan, if its bloodline is strong, can easily reach realms unattainable by others.
But at the same time, the price is that personal life is tightly constrained.
Because no matter which Dou Emperor clan it is, they do not want their clan's bloodline to be polluted.
After all, countless previous cases among Dou Emperor clans all show that once their bloodline disappears, the clan's strong members suffer a break.
The lowborn who were oppressed daily would instantly turn into vicious wolves, tearing the oppressive force that had dominated them for countless years into pieces.
Therefore, the current Dou Emperor clans, including his own Thunder Tribe, are fighting desperately to keep the bloodline pure, to delay its depletion.
Hoping that one day their clan will find source Qi, and the Dou Emperor will reappear, reactivating the Dou Emperor bloodline.
However, seeing no hope, he turned his gaze outward to the world.
He hopes to establish teacher‑student ties with many mainland factions by founding an academy.
Thus, over the accumulation of days and months, even ten thousand years later, the Xiao clan's predicament before the Thunder Tribe's emergence...
They can also rely on the many factions that have teacher‑student ties with Canaan Academy to smoothly transition from a Dou Emperor clan to ordinary forces.
And all this, the Thunder Tribe has only contributed some ordinary-quality, currently unusable Earth Tier items, even Mysterious Tier techniques and combat skills, along with some pills and herbs.
Unfortunately, even so, the elders within the clan still cannot understand his decision.
They still occasionally criticize him for giving the prized possessions of the Thunder Tribe—one of the ancient seven races—to those of lowly bloodlines, which is tantamount to insulting their family's reputation.
Because in their view, even the most ordinary blade of grass from their clan is ten hundred thousand li more noble than those low‑bloodline outsiders.
Let alone that he gave weapons, pills, and even techniques to outsiders.
Upon learning this, Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise, "I used to think the Dou Emperor bloodline weakened slowly generation by generation. Now hearing you say this, could it be that the Dou Emperor bloodline, as your ancient race interbreeds with other women, produces offspring whose bloodline rank keeps decreasing?"
"Exactly, so all our major ancient families forbid members—especially those with strong Dou Emperor bloodlines—from intermarrying with others. After all, while the Dou Emperor bloodline is extremely potent, it is also highly susceptible to contamination."
"If one acts recklessly, a high‑rank bloodline male or female who mates with a lower‑rank or non‑Dou Emperor bloodline partner and bears a child will produce offspring whose Dou Emperor bloodline is extremely weak."
At this point, Mang Tianchi's expression grew solemn as he continued, "Moreover, after a high‑rank bloodline individual has their first child, they keep having more. The subsequent children will have increasingly diluted bloodline, eventually all becoming ordinary people."
"I see, I had heard that the Chief of the Ancient Clan was several thousand years old and had only one daughter; I thought it was a joke. Turns out they were waiting for a high‑rank Dou Emperor bloodline woman to produce the perfect offspring!"
After hearing Mang Tianchi's explanation, Lin Feng finally understood.
Why those Dou Emperor clans don't go crazy mating to produce more offspring for a lottery.
So the bloodline thing, even among descendants of the same person, weakens and thins over generations!
"Hehe, kid, you're right this time. The Chief of the Ancient Clan has indeed had only one daughter for these few thousand years. And for that daughter, the chief never waited for the nine‑rank bloodline woman to fully mature before taking action."
"Moreover, the treasured daughter of Gu Yuan, though touted as the most perfect bloodline in the Ancient Clan for millennia, was a young nine‑rank bloodline woman whose age and weak strength couldn't bear the strain of such a high‑rank child; her body grew frail, and she suddenly died during childbirth."
Moreover, Gu Yuan's precious daughter, although she was touted as having the most perfect bloodline of the Gu Clan over the past several thousand years, but that young woman whose bloodline had reached the nine-star level, due to her young age and still weak strength, could not withstand the demands of the extremely high-level bloodline child in her womb, causing her body to gradually weaken. In the end, she died outright during childbirth.
While speaking, he laughed and shook his head, "Eh, what a pity, that's a nine‑rank bloodline! In other Dou Emperor clans, if one appears, it's a blessing from the ancestors. If she were to grow up, she'd certainly not be weaker than the Black Nier King, what a loss."
And while speaking, he also laughed and shook his head, saying: "Ah, what a pity, that's a nine-star bloodline! In this situation, in some other Dou Emperor families, if one appeared, it would be considered a blessing from the ancestors. If she were allowed to grow up, she would definitely not be weaker than that Black-Nether King in the future—what a pity."
still seemed excited as if a high‑rank woman of the Ancient Clan had died.
"The open and covert struggles among Dou Emperor clans, from what I see, are even stronger than I imagined!"
Seeing the senior's excited demeanor, Lin Feng couldn't help but sigh.
Seeing the former's excited expression, Lin Feng couldn't help but feel a slight sigh.
