Chapter 80 - Secrets of the Bloodline

Seeing Li Huai appear, Wang Ping narrowed his eyes.

At the beginning of his simulation, his intention was to investigate the Li family and find out why they could easily locate the Chi Village people and also to clarify why he didn't kill the children.

[You are furious and want to find a way to confront Li Huai. However, you don't act rashly or have any intention to meet the Chi family. Because if you did, you would surely expose yourself and put yourself in great danger.]

[You suppress your anger and continue to cultivate and study alchemy. You believe that as long as your strength improves, another investigation will eventually reveal the truth.]

[In the blink of an eye, three years have passed. During these three years, you have been cultivating diligently, improving to the Innate Realm 3rd Tier and making great progress in your alchemy, capable of refining 2nd Tier Elixirs. At the same time, your sword skill realm has also improved greatly.]

[Your talents have made the Li family value you even more. The Li Family Master decided to betroth his granddaughter Li Yan to you, in an effort to tie you firmly to the Li family's chariot. In order to investigate the truth, you choose to marry Li Yan.]

[After your marriage to Li Yan, you gain the Li Family Master's favor, and are finally granted access to the family's treasured 3rd Tier Elixir-refining Prescription for research. At the same time, you are also permitted to cultivate the Li family's Profound-tier Superior Martial Skill, the Refining Spirit Sword Manual.]

[On the surface, you show a kind and gentle demeanor, full of gratitude, but deep down, you laugh coldly, vowing to use the Li family's Martial Arts to exterminate the entire Li family once your power is sufficient.]

[On Daya calendar 490, May 1st, with the help of abundant Spiritual Stones and Elixirs, your cultivation successfully advances to the Innate Realm 6th Tier. At the same time, under the influence of Green Talent Sword Skill Talent, after years of training, you successfully reach the consummate realm of the Profound-tier Superior Martial Skill, the Refining Spirit Sword Manual, and even gain insight into the Sword Spirit Protoform. Although the Sword Spirit Protoform is still far from the true Sword Spirit, you have a clear direction and have surpassed countless swordsmen.]

[At the same time, your alchemy skills have also made astonishing progress and you can easily refine Tier 3 Pills.]

[You have never revealed your true strength. However, relying on your alchemy, you raise the overall strength of the Li family, expanding their power at an alarming rate.]

[The Li Family Master's position becomes more stable due to your presence and everyone respects him. He is very happy and often boasts about how he found a good grandson-in-law, making the Li family elders extremely envious. Your position in the Li family is now like the sun at noon, and even Li Huai treats you with courtesy.]

[In Daya calendar 495, Xia begins to experience chaos and uprisings. During these five years, your cultivation has progressed further, successfully advancing to the Innate Realm 7th Tier. In terms of sword skill training, your Sword Spirit Protoform is even more refined, just one step away from comprehending true Sword Spirit. However, what has improved even more is your alchemy. Your alchemy skills have finally improved, reaching the level of a 4th Tier Alchemist, capable of refining 4th Tier Elixirs.]

[As a 4th Tier Alchemist, your status completely surpasses ordinary Spiritual

Realm experts and is highly esteemed across the entire Xia. Even the Sword Spirit Sect – the dominant sect – and the Xia Royal Family treat you with utmost courtesy and dare not neglect you in the slightest.]

[Your presence allows the Li family's power to continue growing rapidly, making other major powers envious. The Li Family Master often claims that his son-in-law possesses the talent of a Pill King, leaving others speechless

and envious.]

[On Daya calendar 495, August 1st, perhaps sensing that the time is right and having completely integrated you into the Li family, the Li Family Master and the Supreme Elders bring you to the Li family's basement.]

[Then you witness a scene that enrages you. The children from back then have all grown up, their memories erased by the Li family's Elixirs, and are being kept like livestock for breeding.]

"Li family!" Wang Ping looked at the simulation content, clenched his fist, and was filled with anger.

A few seconds later, Wang Ping took a deep breath, calmed his anger, and continued to read.

He knew that the moment to unravel the mystery was coming.

As Wang Ping continued to focus, more content appeared on the luminescent screen.

[Next, with the explanation of the Li family, you finally learn the truth. It turns out that after the Li family exterminated the Chi family years ago, they accidentally discovered the Chi family's hidden secret: their bloodline.]

[The Chi family members are from the Spirit Clan, a hidden Spirit Clan. Their bloodline can be used for alchemy, and with enough Chi family bloodline and a 4th-tier Alchemist, Blood Spirit Elixirs can be refined. These Blood Spirit

Elixirs can give the person who consumes them a Special Constitution of the

Spirit Clan and also have amazing effects on helping break through the

Transcendent Realm.]

[Back then, when the Li family learned this secret, they regretted killing all the Chi family members. If they had kept them alive for breeding, they could have produced numerous Blood Spirit Elixirs.]

[However, after conducting a population survey, the Li family discovered that the Chi family wasn't completely extinct and that some members had escaped. This made them extremely overjoyed, and they secretly searched for the whereabouts of the Chi family members. Despite eighty years passing, there was still no news.]

[In the end, the Li family even contacted the Sword Spirit Sect to find the Chi family members with the sect's help. Because the current Sword Spirit Sect Master's wife was a member of the Li family, the daughter of the Supreme

Elder, and the sister of the Li Family Master.]

[Eventually, even the Sword Spirit Sect couldn't find any trace of the Chi family, which greatly annoyed the Li family.]

[As you listen to the Li family's explanation, filled with cold rage, you pretend to be curious and ask how they managed to find them.]

[Li Huai answers your question. They accidentally obtained a Secret Skill called Blood Demon Tracking Skill, which allowed them to track an individual's location with just a sample of their blood. However, this secret skill could only be used to track Spirit Clan members, and it had significant limitations — it could only track areas with a large concentration of similar bloodlines, not individual people. They were able to find Chi Village through the Blood Demon Tracking Skill, using the blood of the deceased Chi family members.]

[After listening to their explanations and their comments about how "sly" the Chi Village people were for hiding deep in the Black Wind Forest, you are filled with both anger and trepidation, finally understanding why Li Huai was able to continuously find the Chi family members and only killed the adults, leaving the children behind.]

[Because children can be raised and their existence concealed from other powers using the excuse of adoption. Bringing back too many adults would definitely raise suspicions.. The Li family probably wants to monopolize the bloodline and not let the Sword Spirit Sect discover their secret!]

"So that's how it is, that's what happened…"

Wang Pings eyes were cold, and his fists clenched.

He had heard about the Transcendent Realm and the Spirit Clan from Cai Yonglong when they were chatting in the group before.

However, he never expected that the Chi family was actually the descendants of the Spirit Clan.

No wonder the Li Family targeted the Chi family, and no wonder the Sword Spirit Sect Master was overjoyed after learning about the Chi Village people from his mouth, directly disabling him and feeding him Truth Elixir to get information…

No wonder Li Huai only killed adults and not children, it was all because the Chi family were descendants of the Spirit Clan.

The bloodline of the Spirit Clan is too powerful and precious, bringing them great potential while also making them desirable to others.

If their family falls and there are no strong people to deter others, their bloodline value would be in jeopardy and countless hungry wolves would pounce upon them.

"However, why can't the Chi family, as descendants of the Spirit Clan, break through to a higher realm? There must be some hidden secrets."

Wang Ping recalled some other hidden aspects of the Chi family and murmured.

After all, the Chi family were descendants of the Spirit Clan. Even if their bloodline had become diluted and their Spirit Blood wasn't manifesting, it shouldn't be impossible for them to break through to the Spiritual Origin

Realm.

There must be other hidden elements that he is not aware of.

"Could it be that some powerful person has planted a bloodline curse or some other secret skill?"

Wang Ping was thinking when he suddenly thought of this possibility.

After all, this Profound World is full of wonders. The Li Family had previously acquired a magical secret skill like the Blood Demon Tracking Skill, so it's quite normal for there to be secret skills like bloodline curses.

With his extensive readings, the probability of such a secret skill being planted is over 80%.

No wonder the village chief said in self-mockery that he could only come up with a Profound mid-tier cultivation skill…

It's likely that the Chi Clan used to be incredibly powerful, but something happened, leaving them to decline and being viciously cursed by their enemies.

In the end, a small part of their clansmen were forced to migrate and settle in the Xia Empire. They developed into a second-rate family in White Moon City but were still destroyed by the Li family and had to hide in Black Wind Forest, fearing being discovered by the Li family. With this explanation, everything makes sense.

"What a complicated past indeed."

Wang Ping sighed lightly.

No wonder the village chief always looks depressed. With such a history and the constant danger they're in, it's no wonder that he is.

Only after he had shown enough potential did the village chief value him so much in hope that he would eventually grow strong enough to reach the Transcendent Realm. Then the village chief hoped Wang Ping could protect the remaining villagers.

Only a cultivator of the Transcendent Realm can fully protect the villagers of Chi.

Otherwise, anyone who discovers the secret of their bloodline would go crazy for it. Only a Transcendent Realm powerhouse would not care.

Some Spirit Clan descendants with unremarkable bloodlines wouldn't warrant their attention.

Because once these powerful people reach the Spiritual Fetus Realm, they can reproduce and create a powerful Spirit Clan, becoming the ancestor of the clan and dominating one side.

"Now that I know these secrets, I have a way to avoid the dangers. Next, I can finally save Chi Village."

Wang Ping murmured to himself.

Next, all he needs to do is to have the Chi villagers disperse. In that case, the probability of them being found will be minimized.

After all, the Blood Demon Tracking Skill can only track locations with a large amount of similar bloodlines gathered together and cannot track individuals. "However, this is a last resort. The real way to protect Chi Village is for me to become strong enough and completely exterminate the entire Li Family, and also get the Blood Devil Tracking Skill to prevent it from spreading.'

Wang Ping clenched his fists, his eyes deep and solemn.

"Moreover, the Sword Spirit Sect is also an opposing force for me. Because of this, I must prepare myself to confront them as well."

"Bai Tianhong…"

Soon after, Wang Ping fell silent again.

Having simulated so many times, he actually had a good impression of Bai Tianhong.

He was an exceptionally talented person, and at just 25 years old, he had already reached the Half-step Spiritual Realm cultivation, and even comprehended Sword Spirit.

To save millions of people, he withstood a battle against the Tier-7 Demon Beast Silver Moon Wolf with only his Half-step Spiritual Realm cultivation, eventually severing the Beast Tide by heavily injuring and executing the monster.

It could be said that in this battle, he must have risked his life as well.

Furthermore, later on, he ventured out to protect the common people from war, ending the chaos, overthrowing the decayed Xia, and bringing about peace to the world.

This was a genius sword cultivator and a chivalrous person.

But, he was a member of the Sword Spirit Sect.

Perhaps he and the Sword Spirit Sect Master were not the same, but if he were to confront the Sword Spirit Sect, it might be inevitable for him to face Bai Tianhong.

"Forget it, there's no need to overthink it. After all, I can barely interfere with Wang Ping in the life simulation. He's like an Al with self-awareness, growing and changing his personality, equivalent to me without a simulator. As for how the future will unfold, I can't be certain.

Wang Ping shook his head slightly, not thinking about it anymore.

After all, how things will develop can be known through the life simulation, and he doesn't need to dwell on anything.

Then, Wang Ping gazed at the luminescent screen again, wanting to see how the plot would develop next.

As Wang Ping gazed at the luminescent screen once more, the text on it emerged again.

[In your angry heart, the Li Family Master expresses his wish for you to lead other 3rd -Tier Alchemists in researching the Chi family members' bloodlines to develop a Blood Spirit Elixir-refining Prescription and refine the Blood Spirit Elixir. You chose to agree on the surface.]

[Following this, you claim you need seclusion to study the Elixir's Prescription. A month later, you find an opportunity to gather all the higher-ups of the Li Family, announcing that you have gained some insights. The Li Family's higher-ups rejoice. You toast in celebration, claiming you'll make the Li Family rise above everyone in Xia.]

[The rest of the Li Family are ecstatic, their ambitions unreservedly exposed;

all of them raise their wine cups with you and drink it all. After drinking it, they realize something's wrong, but it's too late; their bodies are already poisoned and can't move.]

[The Li Family Master looks at you in disbelief, questioning why you've poisoned them. You don't waste your words but quietly leave. Although the Chi Village has been kind to you, after so many years in the Li Family, you've also developed feelings for them and can't bear to kill them.]

[Next, you go to the underground chamber, where you euthanize all the captive Chi family members and destroy the Li Family's collection of Chi family's bloodlines.]

"Sigh…"

Upon reaching this point, Wang Ping let out a silent sigh.

The simulated Wang Ping must have struggled for a long time before making such a decision.

After all, the captured Chi family members had already lost their personalities, and their lives were worse than death.

And the simulated Wang Ping had no chance to rescue them all.

As for helping the Li Family refine the Blood Spirit Elixir and continue with their sordid plans, that was also something he couldn't bear to do.

As for pretending that refining the Blood Spirit Elixir was difficult to buy time, that wouldn't work either.

Moreover, he wouldn't be able to stall for long because people are all flesh and blood, and because Wang Ping might be able to temporarily suppress his emotions and use the blood of the Chi family members to research the Blood Spirit Elixir, preventing the Li Family from becoming suspicious…

But, as time passed, the Li Family members might notice his hidden emotions and Wang Ping might end up going mad during his own cultivation..
