Chapter 42: New Bloodline! Mountain Spirit!

Lu Zhangsheng immediately started to act.

He waved his two claws rapidly, digging toward the ground, and soon dug out a large pit.

Afterward, he continued to dig toward the ant nest direction.

He didn't dig open the lakeside directly, but prepared to dig a trench first, waiting until the time was ripe to break the dam; by then, the water would flow down, and it wouldn't take long to fill the basin.

Lu Zhangsheng also roughly calculated the water flow speed; digging a width of two body lengths would be enough.

If the trench was dug too narrow, the speed of filling the basin would be too slow, and if it was too wide, it would be extremely strenuous; two body lengths were just right.

As long as everything was completed smoothly, it would only take a few days to turn the basin into a watery kingdom.

Thinking of this, he started to dig crazily, his heart full of energy.

…………

Ten or so days later.

Lu Zhangsheng arrived at the edge of the lake again, looking at the trench that stretched as far as the eye could see behind him, his face full of joy.

After many days of hard work, he finally dug out this trench.

During this period, he suffered quite a bit, eating piranhas when hungry and drinking lake water when thirsty.

Under his day-and-night rush, he finally completed the set goal.

This project was also the biggest one he had done recently.

At this moment, only the last step remained, which was breaking the dam.

Lu Zhangsheng did not hesitate anymore, ran rapidly to the edge of the trench, to a dam near the lake.

Waving his two claws with force, he dug open the soil ahead.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Before long, the dam was directly dug through by him, and then it started to expand the water flow exit.

In three or two strokes, the water flow exit was dug into a large opening again.

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle..."

The moment he dug open the opening, the lake water instantly gushed out, rushing toward the trench rapidly, the water momentum quite surging and magnificent.

Lu Zhangsheng leaped up, jumped onto the shore, and ran toward the water flow direction together.

Several hours later.

He returned to the large tree in front of the mountain, his eyes fixed on the water trench behind.

He saw the water flow rushing toward the basin rapidly, endless and continuous, as if it were infinite.

Before long, the vicinity of the mountain turned into a small swamp.

Some small animals around ran out in fright, having long since felt the crisis coming.

They ran directly toward the high ground ahead.

According to this trend, the foot of the mountain would be completely submerged sooner or later, and that would be the time for him to strike.

He was not anxious either, instead waiting with great patience.

Five days later.

Lu Zhangsheng looked at the large flood on the ground, his face full of joy; even the bottom of the tree he was staying in was submerged.

The mountain ahead was completely soaked in the cold lake water.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo..."

A burst of strange wailing sounds came.

A large Fire Ant led countless ant tribes, moving toward the top of the mountain, dense and packed, very eerie.

"It's actually the Queen."

Looking at the scene before him, his eyes moved slightly.

This Queen's body was extremely huge, only a bit smaller than himself.

The blood-colored eyes were full of murderous aura, coupled with a pair of sharp fangs on its head, looking extremely hard to provoke.

"Fortunately, it's only a second-tier exotic beast."

Seeing this situation, he felt a sense of relief in his heart.

However, relying on the ant tribe army, if there weren't these lake waters, he wouldn't have been able to get much benefit if he had rushed in rashly.

Fortunately, he wasn't too rash.

Now the other party had become drowning ants, which was exactly the time for him to strike.

"Plop..."

Lu Zhangsheng did not hesitate anymore, pushed off with his legs, and plunged into the cold lake water.

Afterward, he swam with his four limbs, heading straight toward the mountain ahead.

Before long, he arrived at the periphery of the mountain, did not stop, and headed directly toward the original direction.

Traveling all the way, he soon arrived at the hole entrance he had left behind initially.

At this moment, the surroundings were already submerged by lake water, pitch-turbid.

Lu Zhangsheng continued to explore forward along the channel entrance.

"Zzz, zzz, zzz..."

Just then, the Queen also discovered the intruder and started to summon her clansmen.

A large number of Fire Ants crawled to the top of the mountain, surrounding Lu Zhangsheng, but none dared to enter the water, all hesitating.

Under the Queen's angry urging, finally, some Fire Ants rushed into the water.

"Gurgle..." Just as they entered the water, these Fire Ants were like headless flies, flapping around everywhere.

Clearly, these Fire Ants couldn't swim at all.

First-tier exotic beasts were still far from reaching the level of ignoring natural rules.

Even that second-tier Queen didn't dare to go down to pursue.

She could only roar crazily on the mountain, her eyes full of anger.

Seeing this situation, Lu Zhangsheng was not panicked at all.

With his strength, if that Queen dared to enter the water, it would be courting death.

Once he hollowed out the mountain and left the other party with no place to stand, it would be the other party's death date.

He ignored these Fire Ants and swam rapidly toward the interior of the mountain.

Soon, he arrived before a stone wall.

He started to wave his two claws, digging crazily at the mountain stone ahead.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The entire interior of the mountain only had his digging sound remaining.

Digging forward all the way, before long, a burst of faint light suddenly came from ahead.

Lu Zhangsheng's face lit up with joy, and he arrived before the light source rapidly.

He saw a Moon Pattern Stone embedded quietly in the stone wall.

Then he directly stretched out his sharp claws and dug it down.

"Source Energy Points plus 5."

Another piece of mid-grade spirit ore.

Looking at the Source Energy Points in his account, he was very satisfied.

Full of energy again, he embarked on the path of digging.

…………

Six days later.

Lu Zhangsheng looked at the values on the attribute panel, his face full of joy.

Source Energy Points: 295.

This was the first time it was about to break through the three-hundred mark; he suddenly felt like an upstart.

Through these days of exploration, all the spirit ores in this mountain were dug clean by him, and he had found some more mid-grade spirit ores.

However, the regret was that he didn't find any high-grade spirit ores, but even so, he was extremely satisfied.

These past few days, he couldn't wait anymore; now that the Source Energy Points were sufficient, he did not hesitate.

"System, add points for me!"

Lu Zhangsheng roared in his heart and clicked twice on the panel.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

His entire body began to expand violently, the Qi and blood in his body surged, and the scales all over his body were also strengthening rapidly.

A powerful aura erupted from within his body, followed by a mysterious bloodline gradually starting to awaken.

I don't know how long passed.

Lu Zhangsheng slowly opened his eyes, a wisp of golden light appearing in them.

Open the panel.

Bound Exotic Beast: Mountain Spirit 【Third-tier】

Divine Bloodline: One in a million.

Level: 30.

Talent Divine Ability: 【Soul Strike】 (Ordinary), 【Domination】 (Ordinary).

Skills: Burrowing 【Excellent】, Armor Enhancement 【Excellent】, Underwater Breathing 【Excellent】.

Source Energy Points: 185. Note: A divine being transformed from the Pangolin Royal Clan, containing a trace of weak bloodline power within its body, possessing extremely magical power.

【Soul Strike】: Uses one's own soul to turn into a spike to strike the enemy's mind; power is determined by skill level and the enemy's tier.

【Domination】: Mountain Spirit talent skill, drives exotic beasts for one's own use; the quantity is closely related to skill level and the tier of the driven object.

The result of this transformation was extremely astonishing.

It allowed this exotic beast clone to completely turn into a brand-new species.

Even he didn't understand the divine bloodline behind it.

"Could it be that there are still gods in this world?"

Lu Zhangsheng was extremely confused.

Although only one in a million bloodline had awakened, it was also extremely powerful.

Among third-tier exotic beasts, it was a leader.

He felt his own strength increase by more than four times.

Coupled with two brand-new talent divine abilities, he was extremely excited.

Just looking at the introduction, it wasn't simple; one was a soul attack, and the other was a slavery skill, all of which were extremely practical.

Not only that, even the scales all over his body had turned pale gold, looking very luxurious.

This transformation was simply a carp leaping over the dragon gate.
