Lu Li bought a beast claw from some mysterious ancient beast, dropped his own blood on it and the beast claw started emitting smoke. Then the beast claw was corroded by Lu Li"s blood, vanished, and then it was gone. Lu Li"s hand mutated and turned into a beast claw...
A human hand can become a beast claw?
How weird was that! Lu Li"s eyes were silver and he was giving out such powerful qi and energy. Ming Yu felt Lu Li had mutated!
Mutation was not good!
A human being could cultivate many kinds of Xuan Skills and Profound Meaning, and could even possess some skills only intelligent beasts had. But a human being was a human being. The body must not be changed. Otherwise, the person would become a monster, instead of a pure human being.
Ming Yu once heard that there was a strange race called the orc. They had many features that resembled a beast. Orcs were not well received among human beings. If Lu Li"s arm stayed in this way, he would not be received at the Lu Family. After all, the Lu Family was a Royal Family that could not afford to be shamed by having an orc disciple.
Ming Yu frowned and secretly scolded Lu Li for being too rash.
Lu Li was still panting with his eyes closed. He seemed not to have realized that half of his arm had mutated into a beast claw that could not even hold chopsticks.
Time quietly slid by. Lu Li finally recovered after an hour. His arm stopped having the burning sensation. He had recovered a bit after this hour"s rest. He lay on the ground, opened his eyes, exhaled and said, "That was too much pain."
Ming Yu raised his eyebrows and asked seriously, "Young Master, are you… okay?"
Lu Li turned to Ming Yu and saw Ming Yu look at himself like he was a monster. Lu Li grinned and said, "I am okay now. Ming Yu, why are you looking at me like that?"
Ming Yu puckered, pointed to Lu Li"s arm and said, "Young Master, take a look at your right hand..."
Lu Li didn"t worry about it. He raised his right hand and said, "Ha, ha, you think I have become a monster? Retract!"
With Lu Li"s words, a silver light glowed, and the scales disappeared into his arm, his fingers and nails shortening to their original state. His right arm looked no different from his left one.
"How..."
Ming Yu opened his eyes wide. He looked at Lu Li"s fair-skinned hand and said with surprise, "Young Master, your hand is not mutated?"
"What do you mean mutated?"
Lu Li was in a very good mood. He smiled brightly and said, "This is a new Bloodline Skill I get, Blood Claw! I can make it appear and change it back as I like."
"Bloodline Skill, how..."
Ming Yu was even more surprised. There was never a Bloodline mark on Lu Li"s neck. How come he had Bloodline Skills? Also, Bloodline Skills were something warriors got during Bloodline Awakening. How come Lu Li had one when he just consumed a beast claw?
"You don"t believe me?"
Lu Li grinned and said, "As a matter of fact, you should have seen my two other kinds of Bloodline Skill, Burning Blood and Dragon Roar!"
"Burning Blood, Dragon Roar?"
Ming Yu recalled. He remembered when Lu Li"s body became stronger and that earth-shaking roar. Ming Yu shouted in surprise, "Those are both Bloodline Skills? No… Young Master, you must have it wrong. A person can only have one Bloodline Skill. How can you have three?"
"Ha, ha!"
Lu Li stood up, took a stretch and replied with a smile, "This is my secret and I cannot tell you. The fact that I can have three Bloodline Skills has much to do with my father, actually."
"My Master?"
Ming Yu bought it. Lu Renhuang was a rare talent. All the strange things happened to Lu Li could make sense if they were arranged by Lu Renhuang.
He looked at Lu Li"s arm, relieved.
It was not mutation if Lu Li could change it back. It could be explained by Bloodline Skill. After all, many Bloodline Skills could change one"s body when released. For example, the Mystic Armor Skill of the Lu Family would produce a layer of golden s.h.i.+eld outside one"s body as if there was a golden armor.
Ming Yu also heard of a family at the Northern Desert. Warriors of that family had a Bloodline Skill that could enlarge their body by times after releasing Bloodline Skill and they could become giants. However, that family was exterminated by the Ye Family when they built up the Heaven Cold Kingdom.
Lu Li didn"t worry about what Ming Yu was thinking of him. Lu Li was overjoyed as he was certain that this was a Bloodline Skill. Just now, there was a piece of information in his mind, same as what happened during Bloodline Awakening.
This new Bloodline Skill was called Blood Claw. Lu Li"s right arm could turn into a beast claw. The exact power… was not known!
Dragon Roar Skill was powerful already so the Blood Claw must be awesome as well. When the Blood Claw was released, Lu Li felt a surge of power within his arm that could enable him to crush anything.
"Try it~"
The more Lu Li thought about it, the more excited he was. He took out a ninth-rank Xuan Artifact of the Earth Grade, handed it over to Ming Yu and said, "Come on, let"s try it. Pour your Xuan Energy in."
Ming Yu was interested in finding out as well. He poured Xuan Energy into the Xuan Artifact and Lu Li shouted, "Blood Claw!"
His right forearm instantly grew larger, silver scales appeared, his fingers and nails lengthened and his right hand had become a beautiful yet terrifying beast claw with a silver glow. The silver scales were sparkling, very gorgeous.
"Hoy!"
Lu Li suddenly reached his hand out towards the Xuan Artifact and then grabbed it.
"Crack~"
What happened next surprised Lu Li and Ming Yu. The ninth-rank Earth Grade Xuan Artifact was crushed as if it was only made of wood.
"That is scary!"
Ming Yu noticed that when Lu Li grabbed onto the Xuan Artifact, his Blood Claw was glistening in silver. His five fingers had become five sharpest Divine Weapons, which was why he could crush the ninth-rank Earth Grade Xuan Artifact so easily.
"Young Master, try this!"
Ming Yu was excited. He took out a Heaven Grade s.h.i.+eld.
Heaven Grade Xuan Artifacts were pricey and s.h.i.+elds were even more expensive. This s.h.i.+eld could be worth more than five million Xuan Crystals. Ming Yu didn"t mind it. If Lu Li could break it, it wouldn"t matter even if the s.h.i.+eld was more than 50 million Xuan Crystals.
"Okay!"
Lu Li shouted and scratched at the s.h.i.+eld. The doors were quietly opened right at this moment. It was Yu Huashen who came to see what was going on since he heard no more cries.
"Bang!"
The Heaven Grade s.h.i.+eld was crushed and Lu Li pierced a hole through the s.h.i.+eld, which freaked Ming Yu out. He threw the s.h.i.+eld away and dodged to the sides.
"Hiss, hiss~"
Ming Yu gasped. He had felt a fatal danger. If he didn"t leave in time, he would be pierced through as well...
"How?"
Yu Huashen was trembling. Heaven Grade s.h.i.+eld and it was broken so easily? If Lu Li were to crush their heads, they would die instantly.
Not only them. Any n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior would die on the spot if Lu Li crushed their heads. Human Sovereign Realm warriors usually had powerful force field so Lu Li could not get close to them. Average n.o.ble Lord Realm warriors" bodies, however, couldn"t be as strong as Heaven Grade s.h.i.+elds.
Of course, Lu Li would have to be able to reach a n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior first!
Lu Li"s speed was like a baby crawling to a n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior. He could be killed by a n.o.ble Lord Realm warrior before he could even reach this warrior.
Even so, Yu Huashen was still surprised. Lu Li was only at the Soul Pond Realm and he was already so powerful in attacks. When Lu Li reached the Eternal Realm or the n.o.ble Lord Realm, how powerful he would be?
Once Lu Li got back to the Lu Family, he would be making stunning progress when he was given endless resources from the Lu Family.
Yu Huashen squinted. He seemed to be seeing a powerful warrior rising up quickly right in front of his eyes...
