In the Great Wilderness, once one reached the tenth level of the Blood Moving Realm, they could begin preparing to advance to the next realm.
The gap between every major realm was incomparably vast, like an enormous chasm that was difficult to cross!
But for great families, what they valued even more was one's foundation!
And the most direct measure of that foundation was the number of levels within a realm!
Generally speaking, one would only begin stepping into the next major realm after reaching a point where they could advance no further in their current one.
Yet in such a short time, Lu Qingyun had broken through again and again, directly surpassing the limits ordinary people could reach!
And he was still far from reaching his own limit.
That meant his potential was incomparably immense, enough for him to become a future titan!
Lu Changming's laughter boomed like thunder, exploding through the great hall and making the entire hall tremble without end.
Yet the sound did not affect the children undergoing their first Rite of Passage. Someone had set up a soundproof barrier around the great cauldron.
Inside the small cauldron, Lu Qingyun immersed his entire body in this higher-grade baptismal liquid.
Every so often, he opened his mouth and took a couple of gulps, increasing the rate at which his Energy Points accumulated.
My choice was right after all. If I'd kept hiding it, how could I possibly have been thrown into this pool?
Watching his Energy Points rise by dozens nearly every second, Lu Qingyun was delighted.
He held nothing back. Whenever his Energy Points reached a certain amount, he spent them all!
For him now, saving Energy Points was only useful for breaking through realms anyway.
He might as well use them all at once and display his greatest value!
After witnessing Lu Qingyun's nearly terrifying advancement speed, one that showed no sign of a limit whatsoever, the corners of Lu Changming's mouth seemed hooked by something—he could not force them down!
With talent like this, he could at least be listed as part of the sequence!
He would receive the greatest allocation of the family's resources!
It was just... a pity that he had not awakened any powerful physique.
Otherwise, even the Ancestor might have been alarmed!
Just as Lu Changming was sighing, cries of astonishment rang out!
At that very moment, several children within the great cauldron displayed extraordinary phenomena after their Rite of Passage!
Golden light shone all over some of their bodies, while the aura within them seemed to hail from Ancient Times—profound and terrifying!
Their vital blood was like that of a Savage Blood Beast, vast and astonishing!
Others awakened Twin Pupils, divine light gleaming in their eyes as they grasped life and death!
And some were even more remarkable. After their physiques awakened, they instinctively drew over the extremely high-quality Beast Fire beneath the great cauldron!
"Th-This! How is this possible?!"
Even Lu Changming could not help crying out in shock at the sight of these phenomena!
Ancient Desolate Sacred Body, Twin Pupils, Solar Sacred Body...
Every single one was a supreme physique!
Even the Lu Family, one of the four strongest top families in the Great Wilderness, had never seen such a sight before!
Soon, a flash of inspiration struck Lu Changming's mind. His body stiffened, and he muttered, "A great age!"
"This is a sign of the coming great age!!"
The instant he understood, Lu Changming immediately reported it upward.
This news was far too important. The Ancestors had to be informed at once!
For in a great age, countless heavenly geniuses and monstrous prodigies would rise. Anything could happen.
Even a top family like the Lu Family, an existence that suppressed the Great Wilderness, could face destruction!
After sending out the news, Lu Changming did not forget his duty.
Once these children awakened powerful physiques, he tossed them all into the small cauldron where Lu Qingyun was.
The materials in the two cauldrons were different, and their primary effects were not the same.
The great cauldron was mainly meant to stimulate potential and awaken physiques.
The small cauldron, meanwhile, had been specially prepared for heavenly geniuses who had awakened their physiques and were about to embark upon the path of cultivation!
As for Lu Qingyun, though he had not awakened a physique, he had still been thrown into the small cauldron.
That was because Lu Changming believed that, with Lu Qingyun's cultivation talent, he was fully qualified to be counted among the heavenly geniuses!
And even now, he did not think there was anything wrong with his decision!
Because Lu Qingyun had already reached the hundredth level of the Blood Moving Realm!
If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you won't have trouble finding it next time.
When Lu Qingyun saw others being thrown in as well, a sense of urgency immediately rose within him.
The energy in this small cauldron was limited. If others shared it, the amount he could ultimately absorb would naturally decrease.
But Lu Qingyun could not simply make a move and throw them all back out.
So he could only... increase his own suction!
Having already reached the hundredth level of Blood Moving, Lu Qingyun utterly crushed the others in cultivation. His entire body became like a vortex.
He continuously devoured the energy like a whale swallowing the sea, his absorption rate far surpassing everyone else's!
Dozens of times theirs—hundreds of times!
The only one who caught Lu Qingyun's attention was a fair, chubby little boy.
He was directly feasting away inside the small cauldron!
Though his energy absorption rate could not compare to Lu Qingyun's, it still far exceeded that of the others.
With the two of them absorbing without holding anything back, some of the other prodigies helplessly opened their eyes and withdrew from cultivation.
There was no helping it—they simply could not compete for the energy!!
Lu Changming, however, noticed this as well.
He had never imagined that the Lu Family's carefully prepared Rite of Passage medicinal bath would one day prove insufficient!
Humiliation—an enormous humiliation!
At once, Lu Changming flipped his hands, and a drop of blood resembling a crimson jade diamond appeared in his palm.
The instant the blood appeared, a faint dragon's roar echoed through the air!
"It's actually True Dragon Blood! Though it isn't Essence Blood, it's still worth a fortune!"
"A True Dragon! Even the weakest True Dragons are existences at the True God level. Other than figures of the elder rank, who else could subdue one?"
"Is the Seventeenth Elder... planning to use this drop of True Dragon Blood for this generation's Rite of Passage?"
"That makes sense. Good heavens, ten peerless freaks! Even with the great age approaching, my Lu Family will still remain invincible in this world!"
Lu Changming flicked the True Dragon Blood from his hand, then clenched his fist in the air. Mana surged and churned through the sky!
In but an instant, most of the spirituality within that drop of True Dragon Blood was ground away.
It was then cast into the small cauldron.
The moment it touched the water's surface, it dissolved into it.
Energy so vast it beggared imagination instantly filled the small cauldron.
The blood of a True Dragon, even if it was merely the most ordinary blood, and even if it had been refined, with most of its power worn away, still contained energy that ordinary children who had only just stepped onto the path of cultivation could never withstand.
But these were all Peerless Prodigies!
For them, it was just right!
From this moment on, they no longer needed to worry about the energy being snatched away and leaving them unable to cultivate!
Lu Qingyun was also somewhat surprised by Lu Changming's lavish move.
He had originally thought that this behavior of his would make Lu Changming pull him out.
After all, he had already absorbed so much energy; the rest should have been left to the others.
Yet he had never expected that, in the face of such a situation, Lu Changming would simply choose to increase the dosage!
Absorb! Wasn't it just energy? There was as much as they wanted!
If disciples of the Lu Family failed to fully awaken their greatest talents during the Rite of Passage due to a lack of resources, then if word got out, the Lu Family's Ancestors might as well slit their own throats.
After suppressing the great wilderness for endless ages, if their descendants ultimately did not even have enough resources for their first Rite of Passage, what was the point of living!
Naturally, Lu Qingyun was not thinking that far ahead. Right now, he was completely immersed in the wild surge of Energy Points!
"Energy Points +84, +78, +95..."
Several notification chimes rang out every second.
Under such circumstances, even the improvement of Lu Qingyun's cultivation could not keep pace with the rate at which he gained Energy Points!
This gave rise to an extraordinarily bizarre situation: his cultivation was soaring without end!
And the Energy Points he accumulated were also soaring without end!
