As Chu Nan propelled the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Scripture to its extreme, the corpse of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger gradually turned into a dry corpse.

A vast amount of the Thunder Tiger's blood energy surged into his entire body, letting him distinctly feel the Treasure Blood boiling within.

The power of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger was beyond imagination, not to mention it also contained Ancestral Bloodline!

His flesh kept growing stronger, the Inner Core glowed smoothly, and the Spiritual Power within soared crazily.

Boom!

Soon, the barrier from the first to the second level of the Spirit Pill was broken through, and Chu Nan successfully advanced to the second level of the Spirit Pill.

But this was not the end, as more blood energy surged into his body, Chu Nan's cultivation skyrocketed.

Spirit Pill third level!

Spirit Pill fourth level!

Spirit Pill fifth level!

Four consecutive breakthroughs, Chu Nan's cultivation soared under the power of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger, but upon reaching the peak of the fifth level and nearing the sixth level, he forcibly held it back.

Progressing too fast might harm the foundation; he must know restraint.

At the same time, he was inexplicably puzzled. Most of the blood energy of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger had been absorbed, but apart from the increase in cultivation, he felt no other changes.

Did it not possess the Ancestral Bloodline?

Where was the power of the bloodline?

The Desolate Profound Transformation that Chu Nan yearned for did not appear, leaving him deeply disappointed.

At this moment, Kui Guang anxiously said, "What are you staring at, hurry and activate the Desolate Profound Transformation, or the Ancestral Bloodline will vanish!"

Chu Nan was not surprised that Kui Guang knew about the Desolate Profound Transformation; he had already revealed the secret of his cultivation technique to him.

After all, having become a disciple, and with Kui Guang always by his side, it was bound to be discovered sooner or later even if unspoken, so it was better to be upfront to avoid discord.

Hearing Kui Guang's reminder, Chu Nan activated the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Scripture while performing the Martial Skill Desolate Profound Transformation.

A more enormous force erupted from within Chu Nan, but this time the Nine Desolate Profound Transformation Scripture did not absorb the blood energy but seemed to be pulling something.

A few breaths later, a droplet of golden blood surged from the Thunder Tiger's corpse and instantly merged into Chu Nan's body.

"Ah!"

With the merging of this droplet of golden blood, Chu Nan's body experienced a tearing-like pain, causing him to cry out in agony.

Especially the pain in his head was most distinct, forcing him to fall to the ground, losing control of his body.

Chu Nan's consciousness sank into darkness, followed by a bolt of thunder rising to the sky, dispelling all darkness and transforming it into a world of purple.

From afar, Chu Nan saw an indescribable and immeasurable terrifying figure, making him feel like dust in its presence.

It was bathing in thunder, as if it were the Emperor of Thunder.

The arm holding up the sky was raised high, and the thunder in its hand transformed into a spear, tearing through countless heavens and earth towards Chu Nan.

Chu Nan's eyes were replaced by thunder, his consciousness shattered under the power of that thunder spear.

...

"Gasp~"

Taking a deep breath, Chu Nan's consciousness returned to his body.

Realizing he was still alive, Chu Nan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Just now I thought I was dead."

Slowly standing up, as he was about to speak, he noticed something unusual, observing his body, he found that it had undergone remarkable changes.

His stature had grown immensely, reaching almost two and a half meters!

All muscles bulged massively, filled with unimaginable and terrifying power, even his hands becoming incredibly robust, with nails transforming into sharp claws.

His feet were no exception, the mutated feet burst out from his shoes.

Using the glossy sword blade as a mirror, Chu Nan discovered his eyes had turned golden, with even sharper vision.

The changes in his facial features were minimal, but he appeared several times fiercer than before.

At this moment, Chu Nan looked less like a human and more like a demon beast!

"Sword Venerable Master, what is happening?" Chu Nan was a bit panicked; if he returned to the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect in such a form, he might be mistaken for a demon beast and killed.

Kui Guang said in a casual tone, "You absorbed the Ancestral Bloodline of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger, and after performing the Desolate Profound Transformation, your body naturally manifested the characteristics of the Thunder Tiger. Don't worry, once you stop the Desolate Profound Transformation, these traits will disappear."

"But before that, you better test your strength first!"

Getting an affirmative response, Chu Nan breathed a sigh of relief and then clenched his fist, striking a huge rock.

Boom!

The rock shattered into pieces, raising a cloud of dust.

Chu Nan excitedly said, "Strong power, although I am only at the fifth level of the Spirit Pill, performing the Desolate Profound Transformation temporarily elevated my strength by a level, plus the previous accumulations and various methods, fighting a seventh-level Spirit Pill is feasible!"

Then he opened his palm, and streaks of thunder flickered in his palm.

Then Chu Nan casually tossed, the thunder transformed into a spear shooting into the distance, then exploded, the thunder spreading rapidly.

Dozens of trees were instantly blasted into a mess of splintered debris.

This was the Heaven-Shocking Thunder Spear, condensing thunder into an earth-shattering strike, gained from accepting the Ancestral Bloodline's Martial Skill.

Its grade is difficult to define, as it is not crafted by humans but inherited from the Ancestral Bloodline's thunder attribute Martial Skill, formidable in potency, not inferior to low-grade Yellow Tier Martial Skills, but can only be used when performing the Desolate Profound Transformation.

"With this Heaven-Shocking Thunder Spear, against an average seventh-level Spirit Pill, I might just blast them to death in an instant!" At this moment, Chu Nan was exceedingly excited; after killing the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger, his strength more than tenfold increased.

Moreover, he gained a trace of Ancestral Bloodline, adding more means.

At this moment, Kui Guang said, "With your current cultivation level, combined with this Desolate Profound Transformation, dealing with Chu Hai is more than enough; for now, quickly leave this place and beware of attracting even more formidable demon beasts!"

Chu Nan nodded, stopped the Desolate Profound Transformation, and his body returned to its original form.

Looking at the corpse of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger, it now nearly deflated, with barely any blood energy left.

He slashed its head with the sword, revealing a dim purple crystal.

Once a demon beast reaches the Spirit Pill, a Demon Core similar to the Human Race's Inner Core forms within, the most valuable item on a demon beast.

Although the Demon Core of the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger was at the Yang Wheel Realm, due to Chu Nan's absorption, it had become dim, its value reaching 500 contribution points at most.

After collecting the Demon Core and changing into new clothes, Chu Nan left the place.

Springing off his legs, his body shot out like an arrow, and Chu Nan exclaimed, "So powerful; my speed and strength are more than ten times what they used to be."

"Truly deserving to be the Earth Qi Roaring Thunder Tiger, truly worthy of the Ancestral Bloodline!"

Chu Nan's body left trails of residual shadows; even without using Body Technique, his speed was still breathtaking.

After some time spent adapting, Chu Nan gradually mastered his new strength.

He lingered in the Ancient Wilderness Forest for a few more days, solidifying his realm and familiarizing himself with his power through demon beast hunting.

Finally, after completing the quest to hunt the Storm Wolf King, Chu Nan decided to return to the Cyan Mountain Sword Sect.

"With my current level and strength, intermediate Martial Skills are obviously not enough; this time I will return to the Sect and exchange for a suitable Martial Skill!"
