Chapter 288: Bloodline Upgrade
??
Another batch of the Nicholas family clansmen, who had been separated for 50 years, had returned, but the encounters of this batch were worlds apart from those before.
Similar news quickly spread throughout the Holy Light City.
Everyone in the Holy Light City discussed the different sides of the Nicholas family as they watched the show.
However, as they could not get any news no matter how hard they tried, this small topic was thrown to the back of their minds in just two days.
On the fourth day after the clansmen’s return, in the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family.
[Ding! Received 80 Faith Points from the worship by the clansmen. The Advanced Faith Doubling Talisman has been activated. Received an additional 160 Faith Points.]
[Ding! The descendants of your entire clan have successfully paid respect to the Old Ancestor.]
[You have received a Special Gift Bag. It can be used in the System Shop.]
Early in the morning, after all the clansmen had paid their respects, the System notifications sounded as usual.
Romo opened the System Shop interface and clicked open the Special Gift Bag.
[Wealth Luck Talisman. Special Discount: 500 Faith Points.]
[Ancestral Protection Talisman. Special Discount: 10,000 Faith Points.]
[High-grade magical weapon (random). Special Discount: 30,000 Faith Points.]
[Family Clan Guardian Spirit Beast Bloodline Upgrade Talisman. Special Discount: 30,000 Faith Points.]
Romo: !!
PLease reading on Mybo x n o ve l. com
In the previous few occasions, he had not gotten anything useful from the gift bag he had obtained from the monthly worship. He had not held much hope, but he had not expected a surprise!
Not only did he get the Ancestral Protection Talisman which he had none of in the inventory, he had also obtained a very useful new talisman!
[Family Clan Guardian Spirit Beast Bloodline Upgrade Talisman: The target is the family clan’s Guardian Spirit Beast. After using this talisman, there is a chance to raise the bloodline level.]
Although it was only a probable enhancement tool, the talisman would still be very useful!
Romo waved his hand and bought all of them.
He stored the Ancestral Protection Talisman in the System space and used the Wealth Luck Talisman and the random high-grade magical weapon on the spot. He obtained a defensive magical weapon and placed it directly in the family’s treasure vault.
Finally, there was the Guardian Spirit Beast Bloodline Upgrade Talisman, which he directly designated the Five-Color Peacock as the target.
[Command Confirmation: A Guardian Spirit Beast Bloodline Upgrade Talisman has been used. The target is the Five-Color Peacock…]
[Successfully activated bloodline upgrade… Sacred Peacock Bloodline awakened.]
[…]
‘It worked!’
Romo was delighted when he caught the words ‘Bloodline Awakened’.
At the same time, in the Cloud Sea Perch beside the ancestral hall of the Nicholas family, the Five-Color Peacock, which had been cultivating with its eyes closed, suddenly let out a cry and shot into the sky!
Bloodline awakening successful! Successfully awakened the Sacred Peacock Bloodline!!
The Five-Color Peacock let out an ecstatic cry. “Swoosh!”
It was not just the clansmen in the Nicholas family palace who had heard it, everyone in the Holy Light City had heard it. They all looked up at the sky in surprise.
In the sky above the Nicholas family, wind and clouds rolled, and a phenomenon suddenly appeared!!
In the air, the phantom of a huge sacred peacock appeared faintly, and then it swept entirely into the vortex of clouds. The natural magical power in a radius of hundreds of kilometers was crazily poured into it, and it charged forward as if it had been attracted by some gravity!
In the center of the vortex, there was a ball of dazzling five-colored light. With a closer look, it was a five-color sacred peacock emitting a powerful aura!
The Five-Color Peacock was originally about to break through its realm. Now, with the stimulation from the Bloodline Upgrade Talisman, it directly broke through the bottleneck of its level and advanced to level-7!
Furthermore, it had surpassed elementary and intermediate grades and directly charged to high-grade level-7!
A high-grade level-7 magical beast was almost equivalent to a level-3 Divine Mage!
“Chirp—”
The loud cry sounded again, and at the same time, the powerful aura of a magical beast erupted!
The magic protective formation of the Nicholas family clan and the entire Holy Light City suddenly lit up to protect those who could not successfully block the energy…
No one in the Holy Light City was injured, but many people were frightened and could not calm down for a long time.
After a long while, the powerful aura that had pressed down from the sky finally dissipated. Even the terrifying phenomenon dissipated… Everything seemed to have returned to normal.
However, the entire Holy Light City had already exploded. The entire city was discussing fervently in shock. Countless burning gazes landed on the Nicholas family palace.
“The Guardian Spirit Beast of the Nicholas family clan has upgraded!” Everyone quickly reacted.
From now on, the Nicholas family clan would have a level-7 Guardian Spirit Beast!
Earlier, when everyone was discussing the Nicholas family, many people had placed their attention on the Guardian Spirit Beast, which was at the peak of level-6. They also knew that the Guardian Spirit Beast would break through to level-7 soon, but no one had expected it…. to advance so quickly!!
Generally speaking, the speed of a magical beast’s breakthrough far surpassed the speed of a Mage’s breakthrough.
Many people had thought that no matter how fast the Five-Color Peacock would be, it would still take nearly a hundred years to advance to level-7. In the end… it had only been less than a year!
Not only had it spent a short time, it had even reached high-grade level-7!
Moreover, its bloodline had even awakened to a higher level!!
The bloodline of a magical beast was comparable to the special constitution of a Mage for cultivation. A magical beast of a higher bloodline level, whether its combat ability or the potential for advancement, would be far stronger than a magical beast of a low-level bloodline!
A level-7 Guardian Spirit Beast of a family clan might not be able to match up to a Divine Mage of the same level in some aspects, but the deterrence it would bring was not something that just a few Great Archmagi could reduce!
In Romo’s previous world, the deterrence of a level-7 Guardian Spirit Beast was comparable to that of a Divine Mage, and a nuclear bomb.
The powerful family clan that had one could stand at the peak and look down on countless powerful family clans!
Even if a family clan that also had a level-7 Guardian Spirit Beast or a Divine Mage would have to treat the Nicholas family clan carefully!
… .
A top level-6 Five-Color Peacock had successfully advanced to a high-grade level-7 Five-Color Peacock.
.
This incident again became an excuse for many people to want to build a relationship with the Nicholas family clan. They all said, “Congratulations on the advancement of the Spirit Beast!”
Hence, the door to the Nicholas family palace had not been quiet for a few days; the threshold had almost been trampled flat.
Among the endless stream of people who came knocking on their door, there were those who delivered visitation cards, those who sought refuge, and those who had come to take the retainer assessment test… The number of visitors to the Nicholas family clan had increased significantly.
However, the Nicholas family was familiar with handling these matters. Currently, the head of the family, Norton, had basically handed over all these interactions with outsiders to the younger clansmen to handle… There were also rumors outside that Norton was about to retire and relinquish his position.
The top combat experts of the Nicholas family had basically spent their time cultivating magical power, so they naturally did not care about those trivial matters.
On the other hand, Dick and Ron, the two top Great Archmagi, had been refining weapons and pills as usual. They occasionally dealt with the family businesses and guided the magical cultivation of their clansmen.
The businesses of the four large family clans which they had taken over previously had all been stabilized. With the current reputation of the Nicholas family, no one dared to say anything. They all took the initiative to visit and seek cooperation.
Whether it was the ordinary businesses or the businesses of the magical world, they had all been prosperous. They were full of customers.
In particular, because of Ron and Dick, the weapon and pill pavilions that served the Magi basically had customers fighting crazily over the merchandise every day…
However, only a small portion of the pills and magical weapons refined by the two of them would be sold. The rest would be kept and saved for the family clan’s use. These were also considered the development resources of the Nicholas family.
