"This golden pool is the most important core ground of the Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li. It has been sealed within a world s.p.a.ce and augmented with countless layers of mighty formations. Even a King would have difficulty finding it within the void. Other than the Ancestor himself, the five Lineage Chiefs are the only people in the entire Bloodline of Heavenly Emperor Li who have the right to access it. Normally speaking, the Dragon Sacred Seed is so important that not even you should have seen it. However, the current situation is crucial and time is of the essence, so there shouldn't be a problem if we make use of it for a quick test."
Li Luo's gaze burned pa.s.sionately as he looked at that gigantic dragon swimming in the world s.p.a.ce. The True Dragon Pill within his body was trying its hardest to leave his body and rush towards its source. The bright side was that he was able to suppress this feeling.
"Give me a drop of your blood essence," Li Jingzhe said.
Li Luo used a fingernail to nick one of his fingertips, and a droplet of blood essence flew into the air. Within it was a harmonious blend of his numerous resonant powers, giving off an exceptional radiance.
Li Jingzhe took hold of the drop of blood essence. Immediately after, the s.p.a.ce around his palm violently distorted and a terrifying pressure compressed the droplet of blood, refining it with a complicated process.
It was so difficult that even Li Jingzhe, a Quasi-Triple Crown King, took half an hour to complete it.
After which, the droplet of blood essence transformed into a blood crystal the size of a grain of rice.
Within the blood crystal were six different resonances, giving the object an abstruse charm.
Clearly, Li Jingzhe's refinement had manifested Li Luo's resonance affinities from the droplet of blood essence.
Such a method was truly awe-inspiring.
Li Jingzhe then lightly flicked his finger, and the blood crystal shot into the world s.p.a.ce, into the golden pool. The blood crystal radiated a red light when it hit the surface of the pool.
"The Sacred Seed naturally feels a sense of affinity with the Genesis Seed and desires it greatly. If you truly are the Genesis Seed, then this blood crystal will incite the interest of the Dragon Sacred Seed," Li Jingzhe explained.
Li Luo had a feeling that his blood essence was merely going to be used as bait to see if the Dragon Sacred Seed was interested in him... And this was the "amazing" method to identify the ident.i.ty of the Genesis Seed?
Didn't this seem a little crude?
The trio closely observed the t.i.tanic dragon that remained coiled up within the depths of the pool. Its golden eyes were now closely observing the blood crystal that floated atop the surface.
Its humongous body then began to make its way towards it. However, Li Luo felt a hint of embarra.s.sment at this point. It didn't seem as though the Dragon Sacred Seed was particularly excited or eager to see the blood crystal.
That said, it gradually approached the crystal before it opened up its ma.s.sive maw, directly swallowing up the crystal.
It even seemed to nod in agreement before it quietly sank back into the depths of the pool.
This development made the three of them pause. Li Luo was the first to break the silence, asking, "Grandpa, it doesn't look like it particularly cares for my blood crystal, does it?"
Li Jingzhe hesitated before he replied, "Based on historical records, the Sacred Seed becomes excited by a blood crystal formed by the Genesis Seed. Yet the Dragon Sacred Seed did seem a little calm..."
"In that case, perhaps your suspicions were wrong? I'm not the Genesis Seed after all." Li Luo shook his head as he heaved a breath of relief that was also tinged with disappointment.
"You can't say that either..." Li Jingzhe frowned.
"You don't understand the behavior of the Sacred Seed. It would not easily devour some random external object. However, it clearly chose to swallow your blood crystal, which means that it did incite a response."
Li Luo was a little speechless. "So am I the Genesis Seed or not?"
Li Jingzhe was also a little lost for words. After all, this was the first time he had conducted such a test to determine the Genesis Seed. The situation before him was not consistent with the information he possessed.
"I feel that the possibility still remains... but the chances of it might not be that high."
"You're saying that I could be the Genesis Seed, but perhaps a defective one?" Li Luo replied.
A trace of embarra.s.sment now appeared on Li Jingzhe's ancient face. "Your description might be the most appropriate after all..."
Li Luo rolled his eyes. Just what was going on?
Was he the Genesis Seed or not?
Li Jingzhe waved his sleeve, and the world s.p.a.ce before him was restored. The golden pool world s.p.a.ce was hidden away once again. He began to stroke his beard as he felt a headache coming. This was a situation he had never imagined.
If he was the Genesis Seed, then so be it. If he was not, that would be fine as well.
Why had the Dragon Sacred Seed unenthusiastically consumed the blood crystal? This was completely different from what he had seen in the records.
Despite having a plethora of life experiences, Li Jingzhe was confused by this outcome.
Li Luo spoke up at this point. "I can eliminate the possibility of being a natural Genesis Seed. An acquired Genesis Seed requires the evolution of a Sacred Seed, and since I've never even seen a Sacred Seed until today, I can also eliminate this possibility. Thus, I don’t think I have anything to do with the Genesis Seed."
Li Jingzhe pondered over the situation for a moment before he sighed. "I remember reading in another historical record that there is one more method to obtain an acquired Genesis Seed."
This left Li Luo a little curious. "What other method is there?"
"The natural born nurtures the acquired."
Li Jingzhe continued, "It was said that there were some acquired Genesis Seeds that voluntarily consumed the primordial blood of another Genesis Seed to nurture itself. This could lead to the creation of an acquired Genesis Seed as well. However, such a scenario is rarely seen. After all, a natural Genesis Seed would have to give up their own primordial blood, which would also lead to great harm to him or herself. As a result, they would not be willing to do so. Furthermore, an acquired Genesis Seed nurtured this way ought to be the weakest amongst the three kinds."
Li Luo nodded in agreement. This possibility seemed the most far-fetched as which natural Genesis Seed would choose to sacrifice themselves for someone else? Furthermore, how was he going to even find one? Much less get them to willingly harm their foundation to nurture him? This was just outrageous.
As Li Luo thought this way, his gaze turned towards Jiang Qing'e, who had been beside him all this while.
A sudden memory came to his mind.
It was something that caused all the hairs on his body to stand on end.
He thought back to when he heard a message from a projection left behind by Li Taixuan and Tan Tailan. Li Taixuan had mentioned something.
"Actually, your mom and I owe her."
Li Luo's eyes shrank and a humongous wave of shock surfaced in his heart.
Could it be that he was not the Genesis Seed?
And it was Jiang Qing'e instead?
Li Luo's heart was in turmoil as this possibility played out in his mind.
Tan Tailan had told him once that they were indebted to Sister Qing'e.
Could this debt mean that they were once saved by the Genesis Seed, Jiang Qing'e, at a critical juncture? Could she have given him her primordial blood to help him?
It was possible that this was the reason why he was a little special. Was this why the Dragon Sacred Seed had reacted to his Blood Crystal and swallowed it?
This seemed to be closer to the truth... and it made the most sense.
