"I was worried about Du Ling beforehand; Rogue Cultivator path and perished before I could even return to Copy."

"They seem to be alive and well so far."

"She must have heeded some of the advice she was given to keep a low profile before she left."

Su Bai changed into a hooded robe to cover his body, then rode his Sword Flight and, relying on the connection between the Sea Tribe Master-Servant Contract, rapidly headed towards Du Ling's location.

Several days later.

Su Bai darted to the Central Sea Region the South Sea.

"Du Ling is still on Thunder Island." Through the contract's connection, Su Bai confirmed that Du Ling was indeed on Thunder Island.

The Thunder Island Jade Talisman from a previous year has long since expired.

It is unknown what identity Du Ling holds while living on Thunder Island.

Going to the Shi Gu Black Market to purchase the Thunder Island Jade Talisman would be too time-consuming. It's just a matter of Survey Copy before leaving, and I still need to rush back to advance to the Peak Foundation Establishment.

Therefore, Su Bai concealed himself, chose a hidden spot, and directly leaped onto Thunder Island.

Half a day later.

Outside a Market on Thunder Island.

Su Bai slowly stopped and disappeared into the canopy of a tree, gazing at the distant Market.

To enter the Market, one needs to present the Thunder Island Jade Talisman. To avoid unnecessary trouble, Su Bai simply used a contract to allow Du Ling to leave the Market on her own.

Su Bai wasn't kept waiting for long.

Du Ling then darted out from the Market.

"Master! You're back!"

Du Ling appeared before Su Bai and bowed respectfully.

"Hmm, you've been staying on Thunder Island for the past year?" Su Bai asked.

Du Ling nodded. "This Market is controlled by a cultivation Lineage Du-surnamed."

"This Du-surnamed Lineage cultivators is weak, so I reached a deal with them: they would grant me Du Family identity, and I would secretly protect the Du Family."

"You certainly know how to scheme." Su Bai nodded slightly and activated the [Immortal Talent Reflection] Survey ability.

Du Ling's Talent Interface was quickly displayed.

[Name]: Du Ling

[Spirit Root Talent]: Dual Spirit Root (Water Earth)

[Spell Talent]: Water Attribute Spell Talent (Second Tier), Earth Attribute Spell Talent (Tier 1)

[Bloodline Talent]: Thousand Faces Phantom Hybrid (Human-Demon Hybrid Fusion Version, Bloodline Rank is Chaotic and Cannot Be Evaluated)

(Thousand Faces Phantom: Can control the Spiritual Power within the body to mimic the Spiritual Power circulation of the corresponding target, thus achieving 100% imitation of the target's aura; the Bloodline of the Comprehensive Phantom can amplify the Spiritual Sense Power and give the Divine Sense the ability to split and mark, allowing for traceless marking.)

"Thousand Faces Phantom..."

Looking at Du Ling's Talent Interface, Su Bai's mind flashed through the information he had acquired about cultivation.

In my memory, the Thousand Faces Phantom is a type of spirit-like Demon Race, which is extremely rare.

However, it was precisely because of this that Su Bai had heard of the great name of this race.

Unexpectedly, Du Ling possesses Bloodline that are a hybrid of Demon Race and Human Race.

"The true Thousand Faces Phantom is not just limited to appearance and Divine Ability; it also possesses the ability to mimic divine abilities and Divine Ability the opponent's abilities to retaliate in a more powerful way..."

"The [Thousand Faces Phantom] on Du Ling's body must have been passed down through countless generations of Human Race, making it extremely diluted by now."

Even so, this Bloodline Talent is still extremely useful to Su Bai.

Without much thought, Su Bai reached out and patted Du Ling on the shoulder.

Copy the [Thousand Faces Phantom Fusion Variant] Bloodline Talent from Du Ling!

[Copy successful. Target Bloodline Talent: Thousand Faces Phantom Fusion Variant (Bloodline Rank Chaos) has been Copy.]

[This Bloodline Talent has been detected as a fusion version, which can be fused without affecting the original Bloodline.]

[Do you accept this Bloodline fusion?]

"Accept, begin the integration."

A surge of heat appeared within Su Bai's body, and in the next moment, Su Bai's ability to control the Spiritual Power within his body increased several levels.

Furthermore, the most obvious change is in the Divine Sense within the mind, which has increased by a full 30% at once, and the range of Divine Sense perception has also increased by one-third, making it no weaker than that of an ordinary Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Not bad, not bad. It wasn't in vain that I traveled all the way to the Southern Sea Cultivation World to Copy this Talent.

Su Bai looked at his current Talent Interface.

[Name]: Su Bai

[Spirit Root Talent]: Heavenly Spirit Root (Water)

[Sword Dao Talent]: Clear Heart Enlightenment Root (Yellow Tier) (Coordination)

[Spell Talent]: Thunder Soul Resonance (Mysterious Tier), Withered Prosperity Thought (Yellow Tier), Ice Attribute Spell Talent (Beyond Third-tier)

[Alchemy Talent]: Candle Heart Spirit Tracing (Yellow Tier) (Coordination)

[Bloodline Talent]: Tidal Song Sacred Vein (Ancient Tier Merfolk Bloodline), Thousand Faces Phantom (Hybrid Version)

[Immortal Talent Reflection]: Survey 0/1, Copy 0/1.

In front of Du Ling, Su Bai needed not hide anything.

Su Bai activated [Endless Vitality], and his figure began to change. A few moments later, he transformed into the appearance of Du Ling opposite him, and even his cultivation aura rose to the Peak Foundation Establishment.

Du Ling looked at Su Bai in surprise. "Master, what kind of Divine Ability is this? If someone didn't know me well, they would have been fooled!"

[Endless Vitality] can only imitate and resemble in form; its fundamental essence is still the fluctuation of Su Bai's own Spiritual Power.

This is also why Su Bai was able to recognize Qin Lin's unique and familiar Spiritual Power aura immediately when Qin Lin Huashen the Wood Daoist to assassinate Su Bai.

So, in addition to this...

Su Bai activated his Bloodline Talent, channeling the Spiritual Power within his already familiar [Thousand Faces Corpse Body] to begin transforming it and moving it closer to Du Ling in front of him.

A moment later, the Spiritual Power fluctuations emanating from Su Bai were exactly the same as those from Du Ling.

"What the heck, Master, isn't this my ability?" Du Ling exclaimed in astonishment.

This Bloodline ability is inherited from his family.

And it hasn't appeared for several generations.

After it manifested in her, she returned home and consulted ancient texts, only to discover that the source of this Bloodline ability was actually her family's ancestral inheritance.

Now, how did the Master also learn this Bloodline ability?

Could it be that the Master is truly his Bloodline relative?

"Can you see the difference between yourself and me?" Su Bai asked slowly.

Du Ling shook her head. "There's no difference in appearance or Spiritual Power fluctuations. However, if familiar people meet, the way we communicate and our tone of voice might give away something awkward."

"However, Cultivator Closed-door Cultivation, and they don't spend every day together. Perhaps cultivating a certain Divine Ability changes their mindset. This is not a flaw at all," Du Ling commented objectively.

Su Bai nodded slightly and quietly planted a wisp of his Divine Sense seed on Du Ling's body.

"What are you doing, Master? Marking me?" Du Ling reacted immediately.

Su Bai calmly removed the mark, thinking to himself that this [Thousand Faces Phantom] could not only mark others' Divine Sense without them noticing, but also detect others' Divine Sense marks on him. Even if it was just for defense, it was still a very useful ability.
