The Bloodline Baptism: Chen Xin Became a Peerless Douluo, and Everyone Went Wild
One moment, they had been complaining about the injustice of the heavens; the next, the Heavenly Screen bestowed such a blessing.
Everyone in Douluo was overcome with ecstasy.
That was a Dou Di Bloodline!
Even gaining a little of it would be enough to soar into the heavens in a single bound, wouldn't it?
Countless Soul Masters whose innate talent had limited them, leaving them unable to advance an inch in their entire lives, now felt as though dawn had broken.
In an instant, several people, ranging from Soul Saints to Soul Grandmasters, chose to participate.
Several images immediately appeared on the Heavenly Screen, showing the people undergoing the baptism.
Without exception, they were unable to withstand the pain after undergoing the baptism and died on the spot.
The sight poured a bucket of cold water over everyone who had hoped to change their fate through the baptism.
[Passerby: How could this happen? Weren't we told there was a chance? How come the first few people all died?]
[Ning Fengzhi: This trial tests whether the participants' wills are steadfast. This only shows that those people's wills were not steadfast!]
Once he said that, quite a few people thought it made sense.
Even so, the outcome made many who lacked a steadfast will have second thoughts.
After all, failure really meant death!
A miserable life was better than a good death. So what if their talent was a little lacking?
Meanwhile, inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin glanced at the Heavenly Screen. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "Fengzhi, I intend to give it a try."
"Uncle Jian, are you sure?"
It wasn't that Ning Fengzhi doubted Chen Xin's willpower; the price of failing the baptism was simply too great.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could not afford that gamble now!
Chen Xin had made up his mind. "Yes. This time, I have to go."
"Given the current situation, this bloodline baptism is the last chance for our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to gain a foothold when the great upheaval arrives!"
Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi could only relent, no matter how unwilling he was. "Uncle Jian, please be careful!"
Gu Rong, standing nearby, also gave him a worried look.
Though the two of them had fought all their lives, at a time like this, neither wanted anything to happen to the other.
If he could, he would rather undergo the baptism alongside Chen Xin.
Unfortunately, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had to have a guardian remain behind.
"You old bastard..."
Chen Xin patted Gu Rong on the shoulder. "Old Bones, if I don't come back, you must protect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
Then he said to Ning Fengzhi, "Fengzhi, if things can't be done, whether you retreat into seclusion or surrender, preserving the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's legacy is the most important thing."
Despite his age, Ning Fengzhi's eyes reddened. "I understand!"
Only then did Chen Xin nod, reassured, and turn to the Heavenly Screen.
"Chen Xin of the Sword Dao requests to participate in the baptism!"
The next moment, a beam of heavenly light descended from the Heavenly Screen and enveloped Chen Xin.
At the same time, an image appeared on the Heavenly Screen.
[That's Sword Douluo Chen Xin!]
[The first Titled Douluo-level expert has joined the baptism! Heavens, will he succeed?]
The other factions also saw Sword Douluo take the lead in joining the trial.
The old fellows all grew curious.
If even that old fellow Chen Xin couldn't withstand the baptism, most of them could forget about it too.
Inside Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong stared intently at the image, surprisingly a little nervous.
She was now one step away from God Level. If Chen Xin successfully completed the baptism, she would try it immediately.
As long as she possessed the power of the Dou Di Bloodline, reaching God Level would surely be as certain as a nail hammered into a board.
Then she would no longer need to fear Qian Daoliu!
At last, Chen Xin's baptism began.
As a Level 96 Super Douluo, his baptism was undoubtedly the most intense so far, making it a sufficient benchmark for the major experts.
For that reason, most people still hoped Chen Xin would succeed.
That way, they would still have a chance.
At that moment, blood-red energy descended and poured straight into Chen Xin's body.
The next moment, he felt an incomparably violent power surge into every one of his blood vessels. The intense pain drew several muffled groans from him.
Chen Xin knew this was only the beginning. He hurriedly circulated the Soul Power in his body, trying to harmonize this immense bloodline power.
Now he understood that the Heavenly Screen had been right. The power contained in this bloodline was just a little beyond the limit of someone at his level. To succeed, he had to surpass his own limits.
Chen Xin clenched his teeth and endured the baptism of bloodline power head-on.
Time passed, second by second.
The Soul Masters outside brightened at the sight.
[Could Sword Douluo be about to succeed?!]
Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The expressions on Ning Fengzhi's and Gu Rong's faces instantly cleared like clouds giving way to sunshine.
"Uncle Gu, it looks like Uncle Jian really can succeed!"
Ning Fengzhi shouted excitedly, without any regard for his dignity.
Gu Rong couldn't suppress the joy on his face either. "Fengzhi, don't rush. Watch patiently!"
Though he said that, he could almost see that old bastard standing at the pinnacle of the world after succeeding!
A full quarter of an hour passed.
Chen Xin, shown on the Heavenly Screen, finally reacted as he absorbed the last wisp of bloodline power.
The next moment, his eyes snapped open, and a brilliant light shot from their depths.
The Heavenly Screen's voice rang out at that moment.
[Sword Douluo Chen Xin, baptism successful]
The Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul emerged from Chen Xin's body of its own accord, and a light instantly enveloped him.
His aged face could be seen growing younger at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In the end, he took on the heroic appearance of a young man. His long, silver-white hair moved without wind, giving him the bearing of an immortal.
"Heavens! Uncle Jian succeeded!"
Ning Fengzhi was so happy he nearly fainted, and Gu Rong hurriedly caught him.
"Fengzhi, look at that old bastard's presence!"
Gu Rong was astonished to sense that the presence emanating from Chen Xin had become so powerful that even he couldn't help trembling a little.
High in the sky, Chen Xin also took a moment to sense the state of his own body.
An ancient and exceedingly tyrannical power flowed through him.
His cultivation had now reached the Peerless Douluo realm.
Moreover, the instant he succeeded, the Soul Power in his body had been directly transformed into Spiritual Energy.
Not only that, but the method of using something called a Clan Mark had also appeared in his mind.
With this Clan Mark, he could use the power of the Dou Di Bloodline in his body to its fullest extent.
At this thought, Chen Xin immediately activated the Clan Mark.
A silver sword mark appeared on his forehead, and at the same time, Chen Xin's presence soared!
It almost surpassed Level 99.
"This Clan Mark actually raised my cultivation by half a level!"
Chen Xin's face was full of disbelief.
He was at Level 99 now. Half a level above Level 99-wouldn't that make him a Demigod expert?!
Afterward, a stream of light from the Heavenly Screen sent Chen Xin back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
After seeing Chen Xin succeed and his cultivation soar, the Titled Douluo and Soul Douluo experts could no longer hold back.
They all began the bloodline baptism.
