Jiang Xuan was stunned. So many benefits?
When his bloodline purity reached 85%, the Sword Ancestor manifested and taught him personally. Now, at 90%, the Thunder Ancestor appeared directly to offer him secret techniques and inheritances?
Was there really such a huge gap in just five percent?
Wait a second… If the blessings from pure bloodline alone are already this generous, what if he outright refuses and breaks the script again? Wouldn't the rewards be even greater?
Jiang Xuan's heart began to burn with excitement.
Thunder Ancestor gazed at the stunned Jiang Xuan, confident that the boy had been dazzled by the promised rewards. Inwardly, he sneered coldly.
Two million years.
He had waited two million years for a Jiang clan descendant whose bloodline purity reached 90.
Finally, his chance had come.
Back then, he had risen to the True God Realm with an unmatched foundation, defending the clan from countless enemies alone. But that battle left him crippled, and unable to advance further, he eventually perished with regret.
Before dying, he sacrificed himself, sealing a wisp of his soul into the ancestral shrine. When a descendant with 90% purity awakened it, he would take over their body—reincarnate.
Now was that moment.
Thunder Ancestor's eyes gleamed darkly with madness.
He would become a god again—and this time, go beyond!
"I just need to enter his sea of consciousness… once I'm in, it's over."
He maintained his dignified posture and said calmly, "But since I am merely a trace of divine will, tied to the ancestral shrine, I must enter your consciousness and face your soul directly to pass on the inheritance."
"If you're willing, open your mind and allow me in."
The promise was too rich—no one could resist. He was sure of it.
Even Jiang Xuan was tempted.
However...
After a moment of silence, Jiang Xuan scratched his head with a wry smile.
"Uh… I appreciate your kindness, Thunder Ancestor, but I believe I'm not yet qualified to receive your great legacy."
Better to gamble—every refusal so far had come with huge rewards.
Thunder Ancestor's expression froze.
Did he hear that correctly?
This brat… refused him?
His voice turned cold. "Do you understand what you're rejecting?!"
"My techniques and inheritance are things countless geniuses dream of! You dare—!"
"I'll give you three breaths to reconsider. Don't waste this chance."
Jiang Xuan frowned. Why such a strong reaction?
Still, he remained firm. "Thank you, Thunder Ancestor, but I must decline."
[You've broken the script by rejecting an offer no one dares refuse. Had you accepted, you would've been possessed and used as a vessel for Thunder Ancestor's reincarnation.]
[Bloodline purity +3%. Now at 93%.]
[You've received the embryonic form of the Indestructible Thunder Body, even stronger than the one Thunder Ancestor intended to grant. It must be nurtured over time with thunder-element treasures.]
The system notification popped up, and Jiang Xuan's expression changed.
No wonder that old guy had been so generous—he wanted to possess him!
Damn!
Thunder Ancestor's rage exploded. With just a soul fragment sustained by the ancestral shrine, he couldn't last long.
He had to succeed!
A flash of lightning, and his remnant soul surged into Jiang Xuan's sea of consciousness.
There, Jiang Xuan faced the terrifying Thunder Ancestor.
Thunder clapped. The soul launched its attack, forming a storm prison to suppress Jiang Xuan's soul.
But Jiang Xuan remained calm—and a little smug.
With his left hand, he summoned Fire Dao Intent, unleashing a sea of divine flames to counter the lightning.
With his right hand, Sword Intent surged, condensing into a radiant blade.
One slash—three thousand feet of sword light!
Shink—!
Thunder Ancestor's soul was sliced in two.
"This... this is impossible!"
He howled in disbelief. "You're only at the Soul Entry Realm! How can you wield two types of Dao Intent?!"
Jiang Xuan didn't even bother explaining.
He activated his divine soul, forming a vortex that devoured the fragmented remnant.
True God soul energy—even a fragment—was extremely pure. As it was refined, Jiang Xuan's own soul expanded rapidly.
His soul foundation broke through the limit.
Days passed.
His blood energy surged like rivers, fire and lightning surrounded him, and sword energy pierced the heavens.
The embryonic form of the Indestructible Thunder Body had been forged!
When Jiang Xuan finally opened his eyes, his soul was stronger than ever—capable of rivaling the Soul Formation Realm.
His flesh was reborn. His lightning affinity deepened. His fire and sword Daos were stable. He was now walking three paths at once.
And lastly—his bloodline purity reached 95%!
The height of a Second Generation Ancestor!
That old geezer Thunder Ancestor may have been shady, but damn—he delivered. Even if it was unintentional.
"My body and soul have surpassed their limits. Only my cultivation remains. Once that breaks through—I'll have the Ultimate Dao Foundation!"
Just then, a change occurred.
Within his bloodline, dark, ancient seals began to surface—forming a black, eerie totem.
The totem surged from his blood, then stamped itself on his forehead.
A chilling, sinister laugh echoed within his mind.
"You Eight Royal Clans! Accept my curse!Your descendants shall live in eternal fear—until the day of your extinction!Hahahaha!"
Boom!
Jiang Xuan lost consciousness and collapsed.
