Chapter 168: Golden Bloodline, the Strongest Legacy of the Ancient Demon Lineage

"Next is the Bloodline Purification Card."

Gathering his thoughts, Meng Zhangqing looked at the panel.

This was an extra reward triggered when he added Crimson Gold as a friend.

He clicked on the relevant information.

【Bloodline Purification Card】: Can increase bloodline purity; specific benefits vary by situation.

"As expected."

Meng Zhangqing felt no surprise at all.

It was exactly as he had thought.

For a bloodline, purity is a very critical factor.

It almost affects a bloodline bearer's strength and potential.

The higher the purity, the closer one is to the ancestors.

Then the upper limit of power one can unleash will also be higher.

Things like bloodline techniques can be comprehended with ease, far more numerous and far stronger than those with low purity!

Moreover, among those of the same bloodline,

high purity exerts a certain suppression force on low purity bearers!

"System, increase the purity of the 【Stone Golem Bloodline】."

Between the two, Meng Zhangqing chose the Stone Golem Bloodline without hesitation.

After all, this is something that can be used openly.

Whereas 【Great Strength Demon Ape】 cannot.

"Ding!"

"Consuming one Bloodline Purification Card!"

"Purification begins!"

As the words fell,

Meng Zhangqing felt the Stone Golem Bloodline within his body seem to begin boiling.

The original impurities and mixed blood within it melted, gradually becoming pure Stone Golem Bloodline.

And the Stone Golem aura on Meng Zhangqing grew increasingly ancient.

Shaking the mind, captivating the soul.

"Ding!"

"Purification complete."

Moments later, the system prompted.

Meng Zhangqing quickly turned his gaze inward.

He saw that within the originally silver-white bloodline, a wisp of gold had appeared.

And this gold looked extremely noble.

Like the gods of legend.

It was filled with an ancient and powerful aura.

"Has a qualitative change occurred?"

"It seems the improvement is huge."

Meng Zhangqing's eyes shifted slightly.

If it were merely a two or threefold purification, he estimated there would not be such a great change; it was most likely fivefold or more.

The Bloodline Purification Card does not provide a fixed increase; it depends on the situation, sometimes high, sometimes low.

So in common terms, this time it was a critical hit.

"After leaving the secret realm, I must properly search for literature on Stone Golems."

Meng Zhangqing made a decision.

Although he had fused the Stone Golem Bloodline, his understanding of this bloodline was still at a very shallow stage.

He only knew it could increase defense and was suitable for cultivating body-refining arts.

As for everything else, he knew nothing at all.

This could not be blamed on him.

After all, information about Stone Golems circulating in the world was simply extremely scarce.

However, this is the Xuan Sect.

There should be relevant records.

If there are none, then I can only go find the Stone brothers to learn more.

"Now that bloodline purity has increased, my entire body's defense has absolutely been greatly enhanced again."

The corner of Meng Zhangqing's mouth curled slightly upward.

Even if encountering someone skilled in ambush and assassination, there is no need to worry too much.

Unless they wield divine weapons and sharp blades, or extraordinary secret arts.

Otherwise, they cannot even shave off a single one of his fingernails.

It is often said that the best defense is offense.

This is indeed true.

But it is too difficult.

The margin for error is also too low.

Better to be safe and maximize one's own defense.

As long as one is hard enough, let the winds blow from any direction!

"Next..."

Without thinking further, Meng Zhangqing took out the map.

In the original plan, he was to go to many places, as resources were needed to break through.

It was merely the establishment of opportunity points within the Zong Sect.
