SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 126

Chapter 126: Angel! Titan! Dragon! The Three Origin Bloodlines!

TL: Etude Translations

Inside the hall.

Principal Wang Hui’s casual words made the ring seem like an ordinary white-grade item.

However, Zhou Yi knew better.

A ring capable of instantaneous teleportation was undoubtedly worth a fortune…

“Let’s go. I’ll first take you to select the materials needed for performing the Bloodline Fusion Ritual.”

Under Wang Hui’s guidance, the two headed deeper into the hall.

It was clear that this was a luxuriously decorated villa.

Logically speaking, as Principal Wang Hui’s villa, it should have been bustling with activity.

Yet Zhou Yi found it surprising that the villa seemed entirely empty, with not another soul in sight.

Sensing Zhou Yi’s confusion, Wang Hui explained:

“This is my private villa, primarily used for storing valuable items.”

“Usually, I live in the faculty villas on campus. In the future, if you need me, you can find me there.”

Zhou Yi understood from Wang Hui’s explanation.

This house, while called a villa, was actually Wang Hui’s personal treasure vault…

And judging by the fact that entry required teleportation, this private villa likely wasn’t even in Suhang Province.

It might not even be in Zhongxia Country.

It didn’t take long for Zhou Yi’s speculation to be confirmed.

Rounding a corner, an enormous black metal door came into view not far ahead.

By rough estimation, the door stood at least 10 meters tall, reaching the ceiling!

Its width was equally impressive, spanning 6 meters!

The door loomed like a massive wall, immovable and foreboding.

Judging by the intricate rune patterns carved into its surface and the faintly emanating terrifying magical energy, it was clear…

Forcing entry would likely result in a tragic end.

Buzz—

Standing before the metal door, Wang Hui waved his right hand.

The various magic arrays covering the door began to activate, moving like gears. After a brief moment of alignment, the door slowly opened inward.

Whoosh—

A deep, ancient aura of epic proportions immediately washed over them.

“Let’s go.”

Wang Hui stepped inside first, and Zhou Yi quickly followed.

…

Walking into the treasure vault.

The first sight to greet them was row upon row of transparent crystal display cases.

Inside these cases were not only exquisite weapons and equipment but also various rare and unusual plants.

By a conservative estimate, these were at least A-Rank natural treasures!

Beyond this, another row of cabinets housed a collection of magic crystals.

White, purple, pink…

Each magic crystal was enormous, radiating intense magical energy, making them ideal materials for constructing magic arrays.

Click, click, click…

The sound of footsteps echoed in the vault. Before they reached the end, Wang Hui’s towering figure stopped before a row of display cabinets.

This row had three cabinets in total.

Inside each cabinet was an object resembling a crystal ball.

Within the crystal balls, mysterious blood flowed slowly…

The blood in each had a different color—gold, blue, and black, from left to right.

“The Bloodline Fusion Ritual, when performed, fundamentally transforms your bloodline.”

“But most people only focus on the forbidden-level spell itself, forgetting that the origin blood, the source of this transformation, is what’s truly critical.”

“The benefits you can ultimately gain from the Bloodline Fusion Ritual are directly tied to the origin blood you use.”

“Zhou Yi, the three origin bloods now before you are your options.”

“However…”

“The Bloodline Fusion Ritual can only grant you one special bloodline, so you must choose one among these three as your origin blood.”

Wang Hui’s deep voice reverberated in the treasure vault, humming like an echo.

“Origin blood? So the blood I choose next will become my own bloodline after performing the Bloodline Fusion Ritual?”

“Just like Jiang Churan and Shen Lingfeng, I’ll have my own unique bloodline power?”

Zhou Yi couldn’t help but ask.

“Exactly.”

Principal Wang nodded and said:

“Our ordinary human bloodlines have very limited potential. Each level-up only provides the most basic free attribute points and skill points.”

“By performing the Bloodline Fusion Ritual and fusing with foreign bloodlines, each level-up grants significantly greater benefits compared to regular professionals.”

“However, even after performing the Bloodline Fusion Ritual, you will still remain human. You don’t need to worry too much about that.”

Afterward, Wang Hui added another remark:

“In fact, there are many professionals like me. When they hit a bottleneck and can no longer level up, they often choose to enhance their strength using the Bloodline Fusion Ritual.”

“Hit a bottleneck? Even someone at your level, Principal, would struggle with gaining experience?” Zhou Yi asked in surprise, faintly realizing that he might be touching on some secrets of high-level professionals.

“Of course.” Wang Hui didn’t hold back and explained directly:

“Professionals, once they reach level 50 and undergo the third profession transfer, require an astronomical amount of experience points for every level-up.”

“After level 60, the experience required becomes even more horrifying.”

“For instance, take myself. I am currently level 64. Killing a creature of the same level as me would only increase my experience by one-twentieth…”

“And level 64 high-level creatures aren’t just lying around like cabbages. Naturally, you can’t hunt them at will.”

“As for killing lower-level creatures, the efficiency is too low and isn’t a good option either.”

“This naturally leads to the difficulty in leveling up further.”

Zhou Yi nodded silently as he listened.

It made sense.

For those above level 60, whether human or creatures from foreign realms, they were the rulers of their respective territories. Killing them randomly was nearly impossible.

Moreover, regarding dungeons and secret realms, the higher one’s level, the fewer high-level dungeons and secret realms one could choose from.

For someone like Principal Wang Hui, it seemed there weren’t many dungeons suitable for his level anymore…

“Alright, let’s not dwell on that. It’s time for you to choose your origin blood.”

Wang Hui shifted the conversation to the main topic:

“I’ll first introduce the three types of origin blood to you.”

“The first one on the left, the golden origin blood, is Angel Origin Blood. It is extracted from the corpse of an angel, the essence of its bloodline. After performing the Bloodline Fusion Ritual, you will gain…”

Before Wang Hui could finish, Zhou Yi’s eyes widened, and he was stunned:

“Angel Bloodline?”

“This…?”

When Principal Wang Hui first began describing the origin blood, Zhou Yi had been curious about what kind of creatures they might come from.

Given Wang Hui’s level of strength, the origin of these bloodlines must be extraordinary.

But he never expected that the very first one would be so astonishing—it was actually from an angel!

An angel!

Zhou Yi felt a wave of shock.

As a high-tier race, even the lowest-ranking angels were at least level 50-60, and they were extremely rare, almost never appearing before ordinary people!

Even his S+ talent, named Blessing of the Holy Angel, was evidence of how rare and powerful angels were.

Yet here before him was the essence of an angel’s bloodline!

“Heh, as my student, if you’re going to gain bloodline power through the Bloodline Fusion Ritual, naturally, you’ll have to use the best.”

Wang Hui waved his hand dismissively, his demeanor bold and carefree.

It seemed as if the essence blood extracted from an angel’s corpse was just a commonplace resource…

After a pause, he continued:

“In addition to the angel bloodline on the far left, the other two are the Titan Bloodline and the Dragon Bloodline.”

“I’ll briefly explain what kind of abilities you might gain by fusing with each type of origin blood.”
