Reconstructing the body

After walking for some time, Zhu Shen and Ancestor Ao both reached a spring. Zhu Shen looked at the blood-red water flowing inside the spring and felt shocked. Blood energy inside the spring was at least 1000 times stronger than that of outside. It was so strong that it created illusionary images of dragons on the surface of the lake.

Ancestor Sun bought him near the spring and unlocked the formation protecting the bloody stream.

After checking the blood energy inside the bloody stream Ancestor Sun looked at Zhu Shen and said enviously "This is the source of dragonblood pool. You will perfect your body tempering here."

As he said that, Ancestor Ao left Zhu Shen alone near the bloody stream. The bloody stream was the foundation of the dragon palace. And because of it, the dragons were able to cultivate future generations of their lineage without any hindrance.

Zhu Shen tried to keep calm but his golden heart started beating madly once it sensed the aura of the bloody stream.

"Kid you don't know how fortunate you are…"

The golden heart inside Zhu Shen's body spoke to Zhu Shen excitedly.

At first, Zhu Shen felt scared by the voice. But after listening, he sighed and sought help from the golden heart.

"Is this an opportunity for me to unlock all my meridians..?"

Zhu Shen's voice sounded a little desperate. He knew that to be the strongest, he need to unlock all of his meridians first. If this bloody stream could help him achieve it, then it would be a good opportunity.

"Unlock all meridians…?... che~ you look down on this bloody stream too much."

Zhu Shen was shocked by the golden heart's reveal. He then asked excitedly,

"Then what is it used for…"

He knew that this was once in a lifetime opportunity for him. If this spring could help him achieve extraordinary power, he could take an early lead.

Contrary to Zhu Shen's excited expression, the golden heart looked a little remorseful.

"The original name for this spring was Heavenly opportunity stream. One million years ago, the dragon clan's 12 ancestors donated their essence blood to build this stream to provide an opportunity for their younger generation."

"Do you know what bloodline is..?"

The heart asked Zhu Shen. Zhu Shen could only shake his head. He knew nothing about the bloodlines.

"Bloodline represent the inherent memories inside a creature. Sometimes, the memories will be about instincts, sometimes they contain techniques. Cultivators with powerful cultivation able to pass their memories through bloodline to the younger generation."

"For example, Golden core level cultivators able to leave earth rank bloodline to their younger generation."

After listening carefully, Zhu Shen understood that the bloodlines were basically like DNA, the more powerful the cultivator is the more data will be stored in their DNA which will get passed from generation to generation.

But Zhu Shen still had one question remaining, His god ranked bloodline! He knew that a cultivator must be powerful, to leave his bloodline. But to leave a god ranked bloodline, How powerful was his Ancestor?

While Zhu Shen was pondering over this question, The golden heart asked him curiously,

"Do you want to unlock all your meridians? Or do you want to go by my method? Although my method is a little bit unorthodox, it will help you become stronger than a cultivator with fully unlocked meridians."

Obviously with this question the golden heart was just checking Zhu Shen's courage and his decisiveness.

Zhu Shen was not even bothered by the choice. He had only one question in his mind after listening to the golden heart.

"How much stronger can I get if I choose the second option?"

After fighting with Lin Fan, Zhu Shen knew that he would never be able to surpass him unless he used some tricks.

"After using the second option, nobody in the same realm will match for you. But remember, after choosing the second option, your cultivation will also become slower."

The golden heart said after being surprised by Zhu Shen's direct question and waited patiently for Zhu Shen's reply.

After considering for some time Zhu Shen gritted his teeth and said decisively,

"I will choose the second option."

The golden heart was surprised by Zhu Shen's choice.

'Good brat… you have guts…'

The golden heart felt thrilled.

"Let's start reforming your body then." the heart said to Zhu Shen excitedly.

"What…? Reform my body?"

Zhu Shen felt shocked after listening to the golden heart's words.

'Is this thing mad…? Reform my body mean killing me…?'

Zhu Shen felt a cold shiver running down his spine. He was ready to refuse but the golden heart spoke first.

"Your god rank bloodline is powerful but it is limited by your mortal human body. If you don't reform your body, you will never be able to showcase the full power of your bloodline."

The golden heart knew that a mere human body will never be able to fully showcase the dragon clan's godly bloodline. The only chance was to abandon the body to reconstruct the new body.

At first, the golden heart was going to help Zhu Shen in finding a new body, but after seeing the heavenly opportunity stream, the golden heart abandoned the first idea. With help from the stream, the golden heart decided to construct a godly body for Zhu Shen.

'Brat you don't know how lucky you are.'

The golden heart looked at Zhu Shen who was still panicking from the idea of reconstructing his body.

With no other option left, the golden heart took control over Zhu Shen's body.

"You…"

Before Zhu Shen could say anything else, His body suddenly leapt in the air and landed directly into the water.

The golden heart decided to forcefully perform the body reconstruction process for Zhu Shen.

"Bart after this you will thank me for thousands of years…!"

These were the last words Zhu Shen heard before his body started to melt from the power inside the heavenly opportunity stream.
