Chapter 31: Second Bloodline Purification
CHAPTER 31: CHAPTER 31: SECOND BLOODLINE PURIFICATION
First Barbecue Shop
"How is it?"
The shop owner Jiang Dadong looked expectantly at the cook, who tasted again and again, until only bones were left of the chicken wings.
"It should work, there’s cumin powder, chili powder, salt, pepper powder..."
As the cook spoke, the shop owner recorded beside him.
He wasn’t excited, he even felt quite pressured.
First Barbecue Shop is a renowned shop in Jiuxing City, many big shots like to come here for barbecue.
Originally, Lin Chen’s appearance was nothing, selling only twenty pieces a day, until the word-of-mouth phenomenon started spreading.
Jiang Dadong heard about it and had someone buy it once, and he was greatly surprised.
As an insider, he quickly understood that it’s not the credit of the Flame Fox but the barbecue seasoning.
Thus, Jiang Dadong realized the crisis...
He inquired about Lin Chen, knowing that he perhaps didn’t want to expand, nor had the capital to do so, but if other shops created this recipe, First Barbecue Shop’s reputation would not be guaranteed.
"Go buy the ingredients now." Jiang Dadong handed the recipe to the servant, and asked the cook: "Are you confident?"
"Yes."
The cook was full of confidence, having worked for thirty years without a failure.
...
"Cough cough~~~"
"Is this for humans?"
Jiang Dadong widened his eyes, the cook awkwardly took a bite and spit it out immediately.
It indeed wasn’t for humans.
"This recipe is somewhat wicked." The cook finally gave up.
The ingredient list and technique are entirely different, the proportion of components is very important.
Having tried dozens of times, everyone in the shop had their tongues numb.
"How about buying the recipe from him?" The cook suggested: "Directly buy it off."
Jiang Dadong thought the same, if he could buy it off, there would be nothing to fear.
He hurried to the street, but Lin Chen wasn’t setting up his stall today.
He went to find the market uncle, who shook his head, telling Jiang Dadong if you want to eat his stuff, it’s all about luck, he didn’t have an address either.
"Young people nowadays, this lazy?" Jiang Dadong scolded, lamenting the decline of the world.
Back in the day, he too started from a stall, achieving the renowned signboard of today, waking earlier than a dog, sleeping later than a pig.
After speaking, he uttered a classic among classics:
"Truly, each generation is worse than the last!"
....
The reason Lin Chen wasn’t setting up his stall was not because he didn’t need money anymore, but because there was an important matter today.
Xiaobai’s second bloodline purification.
Lin Chen had only a few blood samples, mainly three:
First, Lee Zaiqing’s Iron Palm Bear, hidden bloodline: 11.2%
Second, Guan Yang’s Flame Wolf, hidden bloodline: 4.3%
Third, Xiao Hong’s, hidden bloodline: 7.8%
Actually, Lin Chen used to have a speculation, which is exploiting a bug.
That is, after Lin Chen purifies their bloodline, purify each other.
For example, Xiaobai’s hidden bloodline is 30%, directly extract and purify it onto Xiao Hong.
Then purify Xiao Hong’s onto Xiaobai.
Later Lin Chen thought this possibility was slim, there should be restrictions, like the Spirit Beast he had bestowed, couldn’t be purified again.
To verify this speculation, Lin Chen indeed took a small tuft of Xiaobai’s fur, prepared to bestow Xiaobai, discovering he was correct, it wasn’t possible.
Looking at the samples in front, 4.3% could be excluded, Lin Chen considered the first and third, now that Xiao Hong hadn’t been bestowed bloodline yet, it certainly could be used.
Thus it was between the first and third.
Finally, Lin Chen decided to try each separately, he tested, as long as he didn’t proceed to the final step, there wouldn’t be any issues.
Firstly the Iron Palm Bear’s, Lin Chen used the Bloodline Golden Hand, directly purifying the blood, then putting it on Xiaobai’s head:
[Use Bloodline: Hidden]
[Target: Plowhorn Beast]
[Not same species, conversion efficiency 56%]
This time the efficiency was higher than last time.
Lin Chen wasn’t pleased, but treated it cautiously.
Safety was most important.
Integrating the Blood Drop into the right hand, placing it up again, at this time it could be canceled, but would disappear.
[On the edge of danger, but it’s not a big problem]
[Success rate: 58.8%]
Differing from the last [Safe] prompt, this time it was a new notification.
Lin Chen decided to give it a try, after all, the judgment by the Bloodline Golden Hand said it’s not a big problem.
It appears the Iron Palm Bear’s bloodline is at its limit.
"Xiaobai, this time it will be painful, bear with it." Lin Chen reminded Xiaobai.
The previous bloodline concentration was much lower than this, Xiaobai trembled with pain, this time would only be more painful.
But there was no choice, if Xiaobai’s bloodline wasn’t improved, achieving evolution, the future of a Plowhorn Beast is destined not to be high.
"Moo~~"
Xiaobai recalled the last bloodline purification, it wasn’t pleasant.
However, the effects were very good.
Niu Niu’s strength now relies half on effort, half on Lin Chen’s bestowal.
Seeing Xiaobai ready, Lin Chen directly activated the bloodline bestowal, his right hand glowing.
Next, Xiaobai’s pupils immediately widened.
"Moo~~"
With its last bit of sanity, it looked at Lin Chen and Xiao Hong, shouting a message.
The meaning was:
Run!
Without caring about the weakness after using his talent, Lin Chen directly carried Xiao Hong and ran out.
Xiao Hong was puzzled, wondering what was going on.
.....
"Moo~~~"
"Boom boom boom~~~~"
"Moo!!!!"
The pain began.
This time the sound was louder, the commotion was bigger.
Lin Chen heard things being smashed inside, Xiaobai’s pain sounded even more sorrowful.
He analyzed, bloodline is innate, forcibly altering the bloodline is an act against nature, pain must be endured.
The timid Little Fox was frightened, covering its ears, wanting to go in and see Xiaobai but Lin Chen didn’t allow it.
At this moment Lin Chen sat on the ground, face pale, panting rapidly.
This time, Xiaobai suffered for a full ten minutes, finally calming down.
Lin Chen quickly went inside, seeing several holes in the room, he didn’t pay attention, as the house was already quite dilapidated, patching it up would allow living in it.
He came to Xiaobai, found it had already fallen asleep.
Checking the breathing, it was even.
Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, like last time, he opened warm water and helped wipe its body.
This time Lin Chen had experience, after bloodline purification, after complete sleep, only then can you observe the changes.
Lin Chen wasn’t anxious, he instructed Little Fox to call him if anything occurred, and then lay back on the bed.
Until he opened his eyes, he heard the sound of clinking, rising to see Xiaobai already awake, repairing the house, with Little Fox assisting by holding nails.
"Moo~~"
The two beasts saw Lin Chen walk out, asking if they disturbed him.
Lin Chen shook his head, when he sat down, Xiaobai put down the hammer and came over.
It knew Lin Chen’s habit...
After transformation, he needed to touch its head, and then record in a notebook.
Sure enough, Lin Chen said to Xiao Hong: "Help me bring the notebook."
Xiao Hong brought the "Cow Evolution Diary" over, wondering when would he have a notebook of his own.
Lin Chen opened the notebook and picked up a pen, looking at Xiaobai, full of expectation for its transformation.
