Over three years, Yu Yuanchen reached Rank 50 and awakened a power of Qi and Blood that strengthened his body, bloodline, and Soul Skills.

• Yu Yuanchen used the Thunder God Power to awaken his Qi and Blood, then demonstrated its physical strength and its ability to enhance his Soul Skills.
• Yu Yuanchen reported his discovery to Yu Boxuan, who summoned the core elders to witness it.
• The elders found that awakening Qi and Blood was difficult for older clan members and depended heavily on youth and the Thunder God Power, so Yu Boxuan classified the discovery as a secret and ordered new training plans for the younger generation.

Yu Yuanchen absorbed the Purple Lightning Dragon’s 32,000-year Soul Ring, reached level fifty-three, and gained the domain-type Soul Skill Purple Lightning Domain. After revealing his breakthrough to his family, he left the Star Dou Great Forest with the group, eager to test his new power.

• Yu Yuanchen endured the Purple Lightning Dragon’s violent energy and lingering will, while his Bloodline Power, Thunder God Power, and Purple Gold Scale helped him tame and absorb them.
