"Bloodline Link?"

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran was slightly stunned. She murmured the words to herself before looking at Ye Yun with a bewildered expression: "Boss Ye, what is a Bloodline Link?"

"A Bloodline Link is a method only available to those who possess the bloodline of an ancient divine beast. To put it simply, it is a highly specialized technique used to bind your bloodline to that of a Spirit Beast."

"If I bind my bloodline to a Spirit Beast, what kind of benefits would I gain?" Nalan Yanran asked curiously.

"Once a Bloodline Link is established, you will be able to acquire all the abilities of that Spirit Beast."

Ye Yun explained calmly: "Take this Nine Nether Sparrow of yours, for example. As long as you can establish a Bloodline Link with it, you can gain the reinforcement of its power, and at the same time, you will be able to unleash the Nine Nether Underworld Fire, a racial skill innate to the Nine Nether Sparrow clan."

The Nine Nether Sparrow clan is born in the Northern Abyss; its wings can cover mountain ranges, and its nether light can swallow the sun and moon!

Its racial skill, the Nine Nether Underworld Fire, possesses immense power—a power that is absolutely no weaker than the so-called Heavenly Flames on this Dou Qi Continent.

"That's so amazing!"

Hearing the benefits of establishing a Bloodline Link, Nalan Yanran's eyes widened instantly. She hadn't expected this Spirit Beast to possess such miraculous skills.

"Then how do I form a Bloodline Link with the Nine Nether Sparrow?" Nalan Yanran asked, stroking the large black egg in her hands as if she couldn't bear to let it go.

"That will depend on you."

Ye Yun smiled and explained: "Spirit Beasts are inherently proud by nature and generally do not form Bloodline Links with humans, let alone a high-level Spirit Beast like the Nine Nether Sparrow that carries the bloodline of an ancient divine beast. Unless you can earn its trust, the Nine Nether Sparrow will never willingly form a Bloodline Link with you."

So that's how it is. It seems I'll have to treat it well once it hatches, Nalan Yanran thought to herself.

"While there are many benefits to forming a Bloodline Link with a Spirit Beast, I must warn you: it is not entirely without drawbacks."

Ye Yun suddenly remembered and added a timely reminder: "After the link is established, your life will be directly connected to the Spirit Beast. If either one of you dies, the other will perish as well."

"Ah!"

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran was momentarily taken aback: "Isn't that a bit too harsh?"

"No, it is not harsh at all."

Ye Yun shook his head: "Although humans can extend their lifespans through cultivation, the Nine Nether Sparrow is a Spirit Beast that contains the bloodline of the ancient divine beast, the Undying Bird. Its lifespan is incredibly long; if we are talking about longevity, the Nine Nether Sparrow is definitely the one at a disadvantage."

Having said this, Ye Yun suddenly remembered the Dragon Essence Nalan Yanran had obtained and immediately corrected himself: "Of course, if you consume the Dragon Essence and obtain the power of eternal life, that might be a different story."

Hearing this, Nalan Yanran suddenly realized the implication and nodded slightly: "I see."

"Alright, I've told you everything you need to know. Take your egg and go. There is one jar left; whoever wants to open it should do so quickly, as I am about to close up shop." Seeing Nalan Yanran pull out one good item after another, Ye Yun felt an itch he couldn't scratch. He was eager to close the doors immediately and go back to open his own exclusive jars.

"I'll do it! I'll do it!"

Hearing Ye Yun's words, Gu He became anxious and immediately stepped up to the counter, readily producing one hundred thousand gold coins.

Ye Yun collected the coins and then took the very last jar from the wooden shelf, placing it on the counter.

Gu He looked at the jar before him, a glimmer of anticipation in his eyes.

He had been filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred after seeing the heaven-defying treasures Nalan Yanran had pulled earlier.

Now, it was finally his turn to open a jar.

I must open a treasure stronger and more powerful than that girl Yanran's!

Gu He steeled his resolve and slammed his palm onto the jar with great momentum.

Crack!

With a crisp sound of shattering, the jar broke into pieces.

As a blinding glow flickered, the shards of the jar dissipated into nothingness.

Following that, a miniature golden cauldron appeared on the counter.

"This is... a medicine cauldron? But why is it so small?"

Looking at the golden cauldron on the counter, Gu He's eyes filled with confusion. He reached out to pick it up, but his expression changed drastically.

Gu He was stunned to discover that this tiny golden cauldron weighed as much as a thousand catties. With his strength as a Dou King, he found it incredibly difficult to lift.

Then, a look of excitement appeared on Gu He's face.

A cauldron that displayed such extraordinary properties must be some kind of incredible treasure.

Thinking of this, Gu He looked at Ye Yun with anticipation and asked: "May I ask, Boss Ye, what kind of treasure is this medicine cauldron? Why is it so small?"

Ye Yun heard this and swept his gaze over the golden cauldron. In an instant, he obtained all the information regarding it.

Dragon Soul Cauldron: Originates from [Battle Through the Heavens], ranked fourth on the Heavenly Cauldron Ranking. It provides significant assistance in alchemy.

It's actually an item from [Battle Through the Heavens]?
