A Gift Prepared Long Ago

"Even with the Healing Spell's sustain, I was still a step behind that Level 8 Dragon One. Fortunately, I had the advantage in speed, so it couldn't do anything to me and eventually acknowledged my strength before retreating!"

At this point, Fengyun's expression turned serious. "But these two incredibly powerful velociraptors turned out to be nothing more than gatekeepers."

"Furthermore, I also discovered traces of Fire Dragon and Green Dragon living there. It's extremely dangerous inside, so please don't go too deep, Beibei."

Lin Lei's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he exclaimed, "A swarm of Fire Dragon and a swarm of Green Dragon!"

Fengyun knew what Lin Lei was thinking. Generally speaking, the leaders of the monster packs were able to break through level restrictions and reach a higher level of strength.

Both the Fire Dragon and the Green Dragon are Level 8 dragons, and their leader will most likely be Level 9 in strength. Level 9 dragon blood could potentially activate Lin Lei's bloodline, making him Dragon Blood Warrior.

Fengyun chuckled and said, "I know what you're thinking!"

"Once I reach Level 8, although I will likely be weaker than a Level 9 dragon, it shouldn't be too difficult for me to fight a small battle, collect some dragon blood, and escape."

"I'll get you some dragon blood then, and you can try to see if you can awaken your bloodline!"

Doehring immediately reminded him, "Lin Lei, with Little Yun's crazy dedication to cultivation and his talent, I reckon he might become a Level 8 expert in a few years."

"Just as he said, it won't be difficult to get you some Level 9 dragon blood, but don't think that you can use the Blueheart Grass you got before to try to Living Blood by consuming dragon blood!"

"To neutralize the power of dragon blood, one Blueheart Grass alone is not enough. If you want to try, you'll have to find a way to collect more Blueheart Grass in the next few years!"

Despite being given a cold shower, Lin Lei was not discouraged at all.

After all, he now has a real chance to awaken his bloodline, and that chance is very likely to be realized, which is already quite good.

He couldn't ask for more!

The thought of the Blueheart Grass reminded him of the one he had found on the cliff face, and he subconsciously wondered, "We found one Blue Blueheart Grass on the cliff before, is it possible there's a second one...?"

"Impossible!" Before Lin Lei could finish speaking, Fengyun directly interrupted his fantasy.

Lin Lei was initially disappointed, then somewhat puzzled. After all, Blueheart Grass is not a plant with the characteristic of being a solitary plant. If Blueheart Grass grows in a certain place, it means that the place meets the growing environment of Blueheart Grass.

It's quite possible that there are other Blueheart Grass nearby, but Fengyun said so definitively that there weren't any Blueheart Grass around.

"What, is it strange that I said that?" Fengyun joked with a smile.

Seeing Lin Lei nod, Fengyun continued, "This valley is suitable for the growth environment of Blueheart Grass, so it's not surprising that there are other Blueheart Grass nearby."

"But I can tell you seriously that there are indeed no other Blueheart Grass on the cliff face."

"And it's not just on the cliff face, it's absent throughout the entire valley!"

Although Lin Lei was still doubtful, he believed that Fengyun would not lie to him, and his hope of searching for Blueheart Grass in the valley faded.

"Because I've picked all the precious medicinal herbs in this entire valley, including Blueheart Grass!" As he said this, Fengyun opened the third cellar, which contained daily necessities, alchemy tools, and medicines.

They took out a box that was tied with a red rope and sealed very tightly.

When the box was opened, it revealed three bottles containing a bright green liquid that emitted a blue glow, and a large stack of processed Blueheart Grass.

Seeing Lin Lei's blank stare, Fengyun chuckled and said, "After learning that the Blueheart Grass would be useful to you, I figured that since there was one Blueheart Grass in this valley, there might be a second one."

"As it turned out, I actually found quite a few, so just in case, I picked them all."

"Fortunately, the precious herb Blueheart Grass has detailed processing methods in books, which can preserve its medicinal properties to the greatest extent. Moreover, this box was specially made by an Alchemy at my classmate's request, and the magic array inside can ensure the freshness and medicinal properties of the herbs to the greatest extent."

"Originally, I wanted to make it myself to keep it a secret."

"However, although my basic skills in magical artifact crafting are not bad, the items I make are always a little lacking. Fortunately, most students who study potion-making will buy these storage devices, so it's not a big deal!"

"What are you standing there for? Put it away! This thing is taking up too much space here!"

Looking at the box being handed to him, Lin Lei thought to himself, "I suppose Brother Yun had already planned this big gift after he learned that drinking dragon blood could help me awaken my bloodline."

But this gift was really hard for him to accept; a single Blueheart Grass was worth tens of thousands of gold coins. The box didn't look big, but at a glance, there were hundreds of Blueheart Grass inside, all in excellent condition.

He also asked Grandpa Delin about the three glass bottles filled with a bluish-green liquid.

It is already known that each bottle contains the essence extracted from hundreds of Blueheart Grass.

If he ever has the chance to drink dragon's blood in the future, the essence of the Blueheart Grass in any random glass bottle will allow him to safely consume dragon's blood once.

This tiny box is worth at least tens of millions of gold coins; he simply can't accept it!

Sensing Lin Lei's reluctance, Fengyun said directly, "Don't be coy. This thing is useless to me, but it's a matter of great importance to you regarding the Bloodline Awakening!"

"Plus, there are Fire Dragon and Green Dragon in this valley. This is your destiny!"

Seeing that Lin Lei was still about to refuse, Fengyun directly opened the box in his hand, hung the three small bottles on his waist, stuffed Blueheart Grass into his arms, and continued, "These things take up too much space, I definitely won't keep them."

"If you don't want it, just throw it away. Just take it with you quickly!"

"I'm still hungry. Can you and Beibei get me some roasted bear paws? I've had them a few times, and they're really delicious."

"Sigh, I'm craving it again!"

In the end, Lin Lei accepted the generous gift with gratitude, because it was truly important to him.

However, to preserve the medicinal effects of the Blueheart Grass, the scattered Blueheart Grass were returned to the magic potion box for storage. But Fengyun refused to accept the three bottles of Blueheart Grass Essence, insisting that he carry them with him.

Watching Lin Lei and Beibei leave to hunt the black bear, Fengyun sat in front of the cabin, sipping his meat soup, thinking to himself, "That sack full of blood, given Beibei's size, is definitely a lot!"

"I was also swayed by the benefits here. The most important thing in getting along with people is sincerity. You can't be calculating when it comes to friends."

"Beibei even little Bebe treats me like this, how could I possibly hold Lin Lei back for such a small benefit!"
