Chapter 344 - 205: This Is His Gift?

Chapter 344: Chapter 205: This Is His Gift?

At this thought, Luke’s expression grew hesitant. He felt there was something strange about himself.

He had a personality that hated trouble the most. Normally, his days were spent honing his skills in battle and thinking about how to enhance his Bloodline.

Luke didn’t enjoy interacting with people and wasn’t as sociable as his peers within the clan.

Yet here he was, actually willing to meet up on the Virtual Source Network with an opponent he had just fought—an opponent who had ambushed him, no less.

Unable to figure it out, Luke subconsciously reached up to scratch his head.

It was a habitual motion, but before his hand could touch his head, it was blocked by something hard and warm.

When a member of the Fallen Energy Race touched their own horn, they could feel it to some extent.

It just wasn’t as distinct a sensation as when someone else touched it.

Luke’s hand traced his horn. His body stiffened, and he abruptly shot out of bed and rushed to the mirror.

His reflection in the mirror looked no different from usual, except that his once short, black horn had bent downward.

The small, crescent-shaped horn, originally seven or eight centimeters long, had now grown so much that its base and tip almost touched, forming a circle.

A horn forming a complete circle signified that a Fallen Energy Race’s Bloodline had undergone an Evolution.

Not only that, but on the other side of his head, the tip of another horn was emerging!

Although this new horn had only emerged four or five centimeters from his scalp, it looked somewhat awkward growing alongside the other, which had already taken on the Full Moon form.

However, this symbolized that his Fallen Energy Race Bloodline had jumped two whole Levels.

This was a stroke of fortune, a miracle that Luke wouldn’t have even dared to dream of.

Luke didn’t believe this was a sudden awakening of his Bloodline.

As a member of the Fallen Energy Race’s Royal Race, Luke’s Bloodline potential had been stimulated in the most optimal ways since he was a child.

If there was any variable in all of this, the only one was the seed that the young man had placed inside his body.

Before his consciousness faded, Luke remembered the young man looking at him with a smile and saying he hoped Luke would like his gift when he woke up.

’Could that gift have been this consecutive two-Level jump for my Fallen Energy Race Bloodline?’

At this thought, Luke almost wanted to enter the Virtual Human Network immediately to see if he could find the young man at the designated Soul Fighting Bar.

Then he would ask him just what in the world was going on.

However, Luke didn’t rush to do so. He had been unconscious ever since he came out of the Secret Realm.

Luke needed to see his parents and explain the situation.

Once he had taken care of his responsibilities, he would go to the Soul Fighting Bar and wait for him.

’I just hope that when the young man gave me that string of numbers, it wasn’t just on a whim.’

Ever since Zhong Yi had emerged from the Divine Origin Slaughter Secret Realm, he had learned from Sun Yushi that the Shuojin Federation and the Mirage Sea Federation were now at war.

The Xin Xia Federation had also been dragged into the conflict.

Zhong Yi knew perfectly well that all the Celestial Destiny Seekers in Starlight City, aside from himself and Shen Xuan, were extremely busy.

His fellow new-generation Celestial Destiny Seekers, Bai Chen and Yu Juanjuan, were still leading the junior students from Starlight Academy on expeditions into Secret Realms.

After leaving the Secret Realm, Zhong Yi had only informed a few people that he was out.

He didn’t ask for too many details about the battle between the Shuojin and Mirage Sea Federations.

After all, with his current strength and the amount of Energy his Soul Soil held, he wasn’t powerful enough to participate in this conflict yet.

After lunch, Zhong Yi was just about to use the Flowing Soul Soil to begin cultivating Hong Ji, helping her advance all the way to the Extraordinary Tier, Gold Quality.

For Hong Ji’s cultivation, Zhong Yi didn’t need to use any specific materials to guide her development.

She just needed to continue evolving along her existing Bloodline.

Zhong Yi’s method for cultivating Hong Ji, Lan Po, and Ice Glaze was the same: he used the Flowing Soul Soil to help them deepen and awaken their own Bloodlines.

As for cultivating the Rejection Crystal Bee and the Resurrection Celestial Lord, however, Zhong Yi would need to use specific materials to guide their development.

But before Zhong Yi could feed the Flowing Soul Soil to Hong Ji, Lin Zhuo and Wen Tao arrived together at his residence.

When Zhong Yi saw the two of them, he could see deep exhaustion on both Lin Zhuo’s and Wen Tao’s faces.

Upon seeing Zhong Yi, Lin Zhuo’s face filled with indignation.

"Xiaoyi, word has come from the Royal Court. They said they hope that among the Celestial Destiny Seekers sent from Starlight City to reinforce Fengjiang City, there will be a Healing-type Celestial Destiny Seeker."

"We might be able to find two or three Celestial Destiny Seekers with Healing Abilities in the Federation, but when it comes to a true Healing-type Celestial Destiny Seeker, forget Starlight City—you’re the only one in the entire Xin Xia Federation."

"The Royal Court wants you to go, but instead of naming you directly, they’re forcing us in Starlight City to ’volunteer’ you."

Hearing this, Wen Tao was about to remind Lin Zhuo not to speak so freely about the Royal Court’s decisions.

But then he remembered they were in Zhong Yi’s residence, so even if Lin Zhuo spoke her mind, it wouldn’t get out.

So, Wen Tao decided against saying anything to remind her.

Star Night had asked the two of them to find Zhong Yi and go to the Star Frost Tower for an internal meeting among the Celestial Destiny Seekers.

It was indeed necessary for Zhong Yi to know about this beforehand.

Zhong Yi’s expression didn’t change in the slightest. He poured a cup of tea for both Lin Zhuo and Wen Tao before speaking with a smile.

"Sister Zhuo, if the Royal Court wants me to go to Fengjiang City, I’ll just go."

"If anyone gets injured in the battle to defend Fengjiang City, I can help heal them."

"I imagine if I go to Fengjiang City, my safety should be guaranteed."

Hearing this, Lin Zhuo spoke in a grave tone.
