Chapter 77: The One Drop Blood Rule
Under the captain's explanation, which confirmed there was indeed hope for victory, the morale of several Reincarnation Teams eased considerably.
"Now there is still one issue," the scarred white captain said, pinching the Fortune Elixir. "What secret is hidden inside Fang Can's small villa?"
"In the movie, the protagonist indiscriminately attacks anyone attempting to enter the villa. The director said this is a setup for the sixth installment; perhaps there are some good things inside." A teammate nearby nodded slowly.
"So on Carnival Day, while Fang Can is out, we send two people to raid his stronghold; perhaps it will trigger a side plot again," the captain analyzed.
"Makes sense. We'll do just that then."
The captain nodded in agreement. "It's decided. When Carnival Day begins, one team will raid Fang Can's stronghold, while the other team joins forces with Da Li Wang to attack Fang Can."
After finishing the conversation with Qu Hua, with no intention of wandering around outside, Fang Can returned directly to his own small villa.
"How did the talk go?" Jiang Ningan asked curiously upon entering.
"It's settled. For the upcoming Carnival Day, they have agreed to also step in and protect those civilians," Fang Can said with a smile.
"That's good. This country is too absurd; the rulers actually treat human lives as a game. In this regard, they are no worse than those barbarians of Great Chu," Jiang Ningan said.
"Do such things happen in neighboring Great Chu as well?" Fang Can asked curiously.
"Of course. There is only one type of person in all of Great Chu," Jiang Ningan said slowly. "The Xiang clan."
Fang Can asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"Very simple. Everyone in the entire country flows with the bloodline of Xiang Tiankuang, the founding monarch of Great Chu. Every single person in the Great Chu Empire is a descendant of Xiang Tiankuang."
"All several billion people of Great Chu?"
"Of course. Xiang Tiankuang's Dominance Blood carries extremely potent effects; the higher the percentage of Dominance Blood a descendant possesses, the stronger their talent."
"So to purify the bloodline, Xiang Tiankuang began breeding frantically, spreading his bloodline throughout all of Great Chu."
"By the fifth generation, he even issued an order: those within Great Chu without Dominance Blood are forbidden from practicing martial arts. Immediately, the One Drop Blood Rule was implemented across Great Chu."
"Anyone possessing even one drop of Great Chu blood is considered a Great Chu citizen. Bloodline identity supersedes identity of status, and any foreigner without Great Chu Dominance Blood within three generations is refused permanent residence within Great Chu."
"Thus, developing to the present, the Chu country is full of Xiang clan members. Because everyone possesses Dominance Blood, men are tall and muscular, while women are charmingly beautiful; the purer the bloodline, the more so."
"This is also the reason why most of the Rising Dragons on the Heavenly Secret List are occupied by those barbarians, because those countries mostly adopt this method."
'What is this "New World Inbreeding Nigro-Raksha Rule"...' Fang Can could barely hold back.
No wonder the Rising Dragon List was entirely occupied by these guys from Great Chu; it turns out all those Great Chu people are just humanoid biological weapons for those who walk the Path to Heaven.
Fang Can originally wanted to ask if there were no hidden dangers in such inbreeding.
But then he thought that was the genetics of a Path to Heaven practitioner above the Fourth Turn; if they couldn't even eliminate the problem of mere inbreeding, that would be too much of a loss of face.
While Fang Can and Jiang Ningan were chatting, a blue-haired girl of about seventeen years old walked out from inside the house.
This was Hearing Liu Qingmeng's avatar in this world.
Since most of her power was consumed during the battles with those superpowered beings, the remaining small portion of energy was not even enough to maintain her form.
In just a few days, the appearance of Hearing Liu Qingmeng's avatar changed from a twenty-five-year-old cold mature woman to a seventeen or eighteen-year-old cool young girl; after Fang Can's visual estimation, her chest had deflated from a D to a C.
"Fang Can, at your current speed, in a few more days, your body will have already transformed into flesh and blood capable of thought."
"According to your next plan, it is to make every cell in your body possess all functions; next, you will attempt to practice boxing to form a brain."
Hearing Liu Qingmeng's voice was cool, but due to her reduced age, she did not give as domineering a feeling.
Regarding her words, Fang Can naturally understood; since the muscles had already turned into a brain, naturally the brain would have to reciprocate and possess the attributes of muscle.
By then, the whole body would be as solid as an iron plate; even the internal organs and brain matter would be harder than steel and more resilient than rubber, truly having no weak points whatsoever.
By then, even if Fang Can personally took the brain matter out of his skull and let an ordinary person strike it with a sword, it could only spark a few sparks and fail to break through the defense.
Thinking of this, even Hearing Liu Qingmeng could not help but be surprised by Fang Can's talent, that he could actually cultivate such a low-grade technique as the Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body.
Yes, in Hearing Liu Qingmeng's eyes, the Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body was a low-grade technique; being able to possess effects like devouring sunlight, flesh alienation, and physical mutation at the Mortal Flesh Shedding realm came with a huge price to pay.
Someone who did not wish to reveal his name, Gang Zi, once said, "There are no useless techniques, only useless people." This is correct in a certain aspect.
Because the more powerful the Mind-Only Technique, the more comprehensive the power obtained, and the more terrifying the talent required to manifest it.
An ordinary person practicing the Tiger Fierce Eighty-Eight Caves would take a month.
If they were to practice Fang Can's Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body, even the first-generation version infinitely weakened, it would take at least a hundred or eighty years to manifest it; they would probably die of old age before even halfway through the manifestation.
So in a certain aspect, it is not the Great Sun Indestructible Demon Body that is powerful, but Fang Can who can cultivate this technique, forcibly turning fantasy into reality.
Holding his head and practicing hard all night, Fang Can left the villa early the next morning and arrived at the open stadium.
This was the meeting place agreed upon with Qu Hua.
From afar, he saw seven men and women gathered together chatting; seeing him approach, Qu Hua waved to signal.
When Fang Can drew near, Qu Hua introduced, "These are the companions I told you about."
"You must be Fang Can."
Before Fang Can could speak, a Reincarnator like a hot girl leaned in, her eyes sparkling with stars. "I like you very much; let's train together."
While speaking, her hand moved unceremoniously toward Fang Can's waist and abdomen, but was stopped a step in advance.
"Li Qiyu, don't act shameless here," Qu Hua warned through gritted teeth, then apologized apologetically. "Sorry, my friends are a bit unreliable; I hope you don't mind."
"It's fine; you guys are quite... interesting," Fang Can evaluated, then asked curiously, "But what are your abilities?"
"They are all body-enhancement type abilities, such as firing shockwaves with a wave of the hand, super strength, super speed, telekinesis, and the like," Qu Yuan said ambiguously.
