In the depths of the secret realm.
An extraordinary divine crane was calmly preening its feathers, while beside it lay the broken carcass of the spider lord, its remains scattered all over the ground, leaving Bell startled.
This is just too brutal…
Bell muttered in his mind as he walked up to the pile of remains and inserted the crimson extractor into the crystal nucleus of the exotic beast according to the system's instructions.
With the constantly flickering magic circle on the extractor, a notification sound from the system rang in his ear after a few minutes.
[Ding! Extraction of blood essence successful! Congratulations, host, on obtaining "Silver-Rank Poisonous Eye Wolf Spider Essence x1"!]
After the system notification indicated that the extraction was successful, the remaining usage of the extraction tool changed to nine times.
At the same time, all the information about this material appeared on the system interface, as well as the usage method and effect.
[Item] Poisonous Eye Wolf Spider, Bloodline Essence (No attributes) (Material)
[Rating]: Silver
[Effect]: Can be used to enhance the bloodline of a tamed beast, and also has a chance to modify the evolution path of the tamed beast!
[System prompt: There is a probability that the bloodline essence will fail during use. Host, please use it carefully!]
"This thing can enhance the bloodline talent of a tamed beast?" Bell asked subconsciously.
Generally speaking, the bloodline talent of a tamed beast had a very small chance of improvement only after completing the bloodline awakening.
The bloodline essence was an enhanced version of the exotic beast's blood crystal. Theoretically speaking, the effects of the two should be the same.
However, the system indicated that this blood essence could directly enhance the bloodline talent of a tamed beast?!
If this news were to spread, it would inevitably trigger a huge wave of discussion and controversy!
In the world of tamed beasts, the level determined the lower limit of a tamed beast's strength, while the strength of bloodline talent determined the upper limit of its strength!
Each type of tamed beast possessed different skills according to its bloodline strength.
Just like the common saying, the dragon had nine sons, each with its own different abilities!
Taking Golan, the top-ranked tamer in the Northern Territory, for example, his divine crane's bloodline talent was platinum-level, which was considered a highly exceptional existence among ordinary tamed beasts.
However, in the group of the Eight Wind Crane, the bloodline talent was not particularly strong, and the threshold for their clan's divine skill, Wind Travel, required a diamond-level talent to begin.
This led to many tamed beasts having either very weak skills or still locked out of their clan's exclusive divine skill due to their low bloodline talents.
This also created an extremely scarce situation for exotic beast blood crystals, and many tamers would use all their assets in an attempt to improve their tamed beasts' bloodline talent through bloodline awakening.
In Bell's opinion, this behavior was no different from gambling or buying lottery tickets. The tamed beast awakening process itself was uncontrollable, and the probability of being able to successfully enhance the bloodline during this process was one in a million.
But!
The blood-red crystal lying quietly in Bell's palm at this moment could directly enhance the beast's bloodline talent.
Although there was also a probability of failure.
But this was currently the only controllable process to enhance the beast's bloodline talent, even without equal.
Bell thought for a moment, then asked the system, "Can beasts like Wancai, whose level has not reached the standard for bloodline awakening, also be enhanced through bloodline essence?"
[System prompt: Bloodline essence has no level requirement and, if triggered on the awakening route, can be saved in the system compendium. When conditions are met, the host can choose according to his own needs.]
[At the same time, the effect of silver-level bloodline essence on silver and below beasts will be enhanced, but if applied to beasts with bloodline talent higher than silver level, its effect will be exponentially weakened!]
Bell was stunned for a moment. Once he fully consumed this information in his mind, his face immediately lit up with excitement.
The system can actually save the evolution path of each beast?
This meant that Bell could choose a suitable evolution path for his needs while knowing the evolution results before the beast's bloodline awakening!
This was equivalent to other beast trainers taking a closed-book exam, while Bell was taking an open-book exam.
And, the awakening result of each beast was completely random, whether it was suitable for oneself could only be determined by luck.
Its chance was no less than gambling on stones!
Bell had some confidence in his heart. As he expected, silver-level essence had the best effect on beasts of the same level, and conversely, its effect was minimal.
Just then, another system prompt sounded.
[Ding! The duration of the 'Cosmic Fusion Agent' has expired!]
"Bang!"
The crane that was still grooming its feathers turned into a mist, turning back into a round Slime shape.
Somewhat unsatisfied, Bell said, "The duration of this potion is a bit short, and it's a diamond-level rarity. If you want to draw it, it's completely luck-based. If it can be exchanged directly, it's worth spending 10,000 exotic beast blood seals on it for this effect!"
However, it disappeared with the expiration of the potion's effect.
Bell had the chance to experiment and see how effective this bloodline essence could be.
He waved his hand and picked up the palm-sized Wangcai, allowing it to swallow the bloodline essence before waiting patiently for the effects to take place.
"This extractor has the character 'imitation' in its name, which means it's a replica of some higher-level item. Not only does it have a usage limit, but also a maximum extraction level…"
Seeing that Wangcai had yet to show any changes, Bell had nothing better to do and began studying the red extractor in his hand.
According to his speculation, there should be an even higher-level artifact in the prize pool, also used to extract bloodline essence, without any usage limits or level restrictions.
It was even possible that the success rate of that artifact was higher than the replica he had in his hand.
If he could extract bloodline essence without restrictions, even a bronze-level Wangcai could be trained into a divine beast by him!
But for now, these were just thoughts.
Even the replica's rating was as high as gold level, making it hard to imagine how precious the original must be. It must be heaven-defying…
However, the incredibly miraculous effect was also worthy of a high-level rating. Even the highest level rating wouldn't shock Bell.
This artifact was enough to change the entire world of beast tamers!
Bell sighed with regret, saying slowly, "Anyway, it's in the prize pool, and I'll get it one day!"
Although he said so, it was only when he actually held it in his hands that it would be real!
Ah, there are still so few exotic beast blood seals. It seems that I need to hunt more exotic beasts in the future and try to draw out that artifact! Bell imagined in his mind.
[Ding! The host's exclusive bloodline talent for beast taming has been upgraded! The attribute panel has changed. Please check it out!]
