Late night, Hu City.
A skyscraper stands tall, its interior brightly lit.
At the top are four large characters, Celestial God Technology!
Therefore.
This building is also called the Celestial God Building.
As one of the four major forces.
Celestial God Technology was a domestic giant company even in the old era, involved in technology, biology, genetics, and achieved massive success. After the new era began, it rose to prominence immediately.
Among them, Asura, as a representative figure, was previously known online as one of the Five Great Venerables.
Besides that, it also has numerous Awakened under its command, making its power immense.
However, Celestial God Technology didn't occupy a super city like Longevity Gene did.
And become a hegemon.
Instead, they chose to remain in Hu City, coexisting with the Wu Zhou Group.
But unlike the other three major forces, Celestial God Technology is very low-key.
Except for Asura, there are no outstanding Awakened, seemingly out of place.
Yet no one doubts its strength.
After all.
Being able to cooperate with the authorities is not something ordinary forces can achieve.
At this time, in the middle floor of the Celestial God Building.
There is a room here, but it's no ordinary room; it can be called a prison cell, made of alloy, so strong that even bombs cannot destroy it. Once imprisoned, Awakened cannot escape.
And in the room, Asura's hands are suspended, with half of his body injured and the other half entirely made of bionic machinery.
His breath is very weak, the cloak covering his body is gone, revealing a young face.
He looks like.
He's only in his twenties.
"Now, give you one more chance, what exactly happened in Shennongjia?"
"You should know, the company values you a lot, even giving you the Asura Blade, don't disappoint the company's training of you."
Outside the prison cell, a middle-aged man in a suit spoke.
Looking at the blood-covered Asura.
With a calm gaze.
He is tall, with deep-set eyes, clearly a mixed-race individual.
And this person.
Is the actual controller of Celestial God Technology, Liu Changyuan, who also has a foreign name, Tom Liu.
He is also an Awakened, at the Awakening Realm, slightly stronger than Asura.
"President Liu, I have said it many times, I encountered an Exotic Beast in Shennongjia, Miss Jennifer and others were killed by it, that's the whole truth," Asura spoke, his voice hoarse.
He no longer seemed like one of the Five Great Awakened, his left flesh body covered in wounds.
"You should know, I can end your life at any time," Liu Changyuan said.
A remote control similar to a car key appeared in his hand.
Then he glanced.
At the mechanical heart on Asura's other half.
"I knew from the beginning," Asura lifted his head, showing a smile, "So I always carried out the tasks you gave me seriously, and I'm telling the truth this time."
"President Liu, just some Westerners, there's no need for you to keep pursuing this, I've said everything I can, if you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do."
After returning from Shennongjia, he immediately went back to Celestial God Technology and informed the higher-ups as planned.
However, the higher-ups didn't believe the reason at all, and they directly showed true anger.
Imprisoned him and used punishment.
Asura didn't expect it.
For the sake of Jennifer and others, the higher-ups could go to such lengths.
He had heard before that the company had very close ties with the West.
Originally, he thought it was just ordinary collaboration.
But now, it seems that he was too naive.
The company's relationship with the West is far more complicated than imagined.
"Miss Jennifer was an Apostle of the Holy Angels, I have to give an explanation."
President Liu looked at Asura and continued, "You know my methods. I'll give you one more day. If you still don't tell the truth, I will send you to the lab to be completely transformed into a pile of metal, you should know the company has this capability."
"Of course, of course," Asura replied, keeping his head down, "but what I said is the truth."
Indeed, Lu Yuan did it, but with the mindset of being a fellow Chinese.
He wanted to bear it alone if possible.
He originally thought the company wouldn't pursue it.
But with such an attitude from the other party, Asura was disappointed and even more rebellious.
Inside, he knew that if he confessed, perhaps the suffering would stop.
After all, the other party had nothing to do with him, not even friends, just met a few times.
But Asura knew, first and foremost, he was Chinese, and he understood that if the company learned the truth, they would definitely unite with the West to deal with Lu Yuan.
Since he had already been modified many times, he was not even considered human anymore.
If that's the case.
Why bring trouble to others?
"Alright then, don't blame me for being rude," Liu Changyuan's patience seemed to run out, and he walked out of the room.
Just as he exited, a figure appeared, a Western face holding a Cross Staff, identical to Jennifer's, clearly also one of the Twelve Apostles under the Holy Angels.
"Mr. Wade, why are you here?" Seeing the visitor, Liu Changyuan immediately approached with a smile.
He believed in the Western Church Court, and the Twelve Apostles, to him, were like messengers of God, so he was naturally very courteous.
Especially since in front of him, stood the most powerful First Apostle of the Twelve Apostles!
"I have used Western Divine Skill on the other people who went to Shennongjia, and I already know what happened. I came here especially to tell Mr. Liu, you don't need to waste any more time."
Apostle Wade spoke, very fluent in the Chinese language. In fact, after the new era.
Languages of various countries were no longer difficult to learn for the Awakened.
As long as they spend a little time, they naturally could master them.
"Oh? What happened?" Liu Changyuan asked immediately upon hearing this.
In response, Apostle Wade wasted no words and directly explained everything.
"What, it's actually Lu Yuan?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Changyuan's expression changed slightly, his brows furrowing deeply, "Mr. Wade, I know Lu Yuan, he's utterly fearless, at the time, he directly killed two big figures from Longevity Gene and Wu Zhou Group, and he's also well connected with Zhen Dan Academy."
"Moreover, he is very strong, with very high comprehension, if it's his doing, it will be very challenging for us to deal with it."
"No matter who it is, anyone who kills a servant of God is offending the divine, and it's an unforgivable sin."
Wade simply said seriously, "The great Holy Angels have already commanded, this is a blasphemy of divinity, in short, that man named Lu Yuan must die!"
"Tell the world that those who offend the gods must pay a heavy price!"
He spoke with a serious tone, gripping the Cross Staff tightly,
and his green eyes were filled with a murderous intent.
"Since it's an order from the Angel, I will fully assist." Liu Changyuan thought for a moment, then didn't refuse, continuing, "However, recently, Celestial God Technology has been watched by Zhen Dan Academy, making it difficult to operate freely."
Currently, the Western nations are divided into two major factions, one led by the Vatican Court.
And the other led by the Divine Knights of Mount Olympus.
Liu Changyuan's meaning was simple.
Some affairs of Celestial God Technology could no longer be concealed, and the authorities were very dissatisfied.
Moreover, apart from Deep City, the beast tides in other regions are gradually decreasing.
If the authorities free up their hands by then,
they will definitely move directly against Celestial God Technology.
He simply couldn't handle it and needed to seek help.
"Rest assured, you have done so much for us, we have our ways to solve your problem." Apostle Wade spoke, as Celestial God Technology was crucial to them, and they certainly didn't want it suppressed.
"That's good!" Liu Changyuan was relieved, then glanced around the room: "Since we already know who the culprit is, shouldn't we...?"
As he spoke, he made a throat-slitting gesture, suggesting if they should eliminate the Asura.
"That person still has their uses."
Wade spoke, smiling: "He will become an important bait; the one we truly need to deal with is Lu Yuan!"
"As for the others, they're insignificant; we'll handle them after the matter is settled."
"I understand."
Liu Changyuan nodded, knowing what to do next.
However, everything needed careful planning.
The first thing to do.
Is to prepare everything, preventing any unexpected accidents.
As for Wade, he didn't continue speaking, his thoughts simple.
After dealing with Lu Yuan.
Proceed with the next matters.
...
In Shennongjia.
After ten days or so.
The Golden-winged Roc had fully refined the Dragon Blood.
Its body didn't appear much different than before, but the light emanating from its feathers was even more dazzling than before.
Especially the aura it exuded could be controlled with ease; without showing aggression, outsiders couldn't discern it was an Exotic Beast King, understanding only from its appearance that it was extraordinary.
"The bloodline has been purified a lot, but it's still not enough. More Exotic Beasts with Dragon Blood need to be hunted."
It sensed its internal condition.
Understanding that there was still a distance to completely activate its bloodline and become a true Golden-winged Roc in every sense of the word.
But it's enough for now; the current Golden-winged Roc has broken five Genetic Shackles.
It may not seem much, but the enhancement to its combat power is indeed significant.
For instance, when facing the White King again.
It can definitely achieve a direct victory.
Moreover.
In the coming period, it can continue to grow until reaching the Golden Body Realm.
It's known that the Golden-winged Roc's bloodline is incredibly strong and possesses high talent, unlike other creatures that only break twelve shackles; it will break more, and its potential is even more terrifying.
Buzz buzz buzz~
However, at this moment.
The Golden-winged Roc suddenly felt a powerful aura sweeping in from the high platform.
Looking up, it found it was emanating from Lu Yuan, who was seated in the Blood Pool.
This aura was incomparably majestic.
More importantly.
At this moment, the blood surrounding Lu Yuan was no longer deep red, but a golden hue, like a dream.
Simultaneously, mysterious powers continuously surged from the golden aura of the blood.
Even without approaching,
the Golden-winged Roc could still feel it.
Its master was undergoing a terrifying bloodline transformation, a leap, a sublimation!
And as time passed, that feeling grew stronger, influencing even its soul.
"This...this aura, has he created an ancestral bloodline?"
At this moment, the Golden-winged Roc widened its eyes, because within its inherited memories, it knew what such an aura represented.
Though it was merely an initial stage, it was still utterly astonished.
All living beings have their origins and roots.
Generally speaking, powerful life forms will inherit the bloodline of ancestors; the higher the purity, the more the bloodline's power can be displayed, if low, then it can't.
Unless one can create an ancestral bloodline.
As the name suggests, it means not inheriting a strong ancestral bloodline.
But under a certain great fortune, breaking the human body's restrictions, fully sublimating the body's cellular particles to an unimaginable level.
In other words.
One is the first-generation bloodline oneself.
And its descendants can also continue this bloodline inheritance!
Just like the Ancestor Dragon, Primordial Phoenix, Primordial Qilin, equivalent to the original Golden-winged Roc.
But such an event, the Golden-winged Roc had never heard of; for humans to achieve this step is even harder, and in its inherited memories, there aren't many among the Chinese humans, and each one is a true outstanding person.
"No wonder, no wonder even my bloodline would be suppressed, but how did he do it?"
It was shocked, completely unable to comprehend, unclear why this would be so.
What a great fortune must this be?
No.
Suddenly, the Golden-winged Roc thought.
Shennongjia, Shennongjia, could it be that its master acquired the fortune left by one of the Three Sovereigns, the Shennong?
Buzz!
It was at this moment.
Lu Yuan in the Blood Pool opened his eyes.
Instantly.
The golden blood on his body surged out, turning into a pillar of light, dyeing everything around into gold.
His transformation also reached the final moment, about to succeed!
