For example, the Blood Descendant Secret Technique and the Sand Convergence Secret Technique—these two had once formed the very foundation of his advancement to Ruler.

However, now that he possessed the bloodline of the Spirit Molting Snake Emperor, the Blood Descendant Secret Technique’s effects—mobilizing bloodline power and condensing the will of the snake swarm—had been completely replaced by the innate abilities of the Spirit Molting Snake Emperor bloodline.

As for the Sand Convergence Secret Technique, relying on the racial enhancement granted by the Spirit Molting Snake Emperor bloodline, its might far surpassed that secret technique.

Of course, since the Spirit Molting Snake bloodline had not yet been widely propagated, the Sand Convergence Secret Technique could still provide Zhou Ming with a small amount of value for the time being.

Although these two secret techniques were no longer strictly necessary, Zhou Ming did not choose to abandon them, because all the spells he had researched had been derived from these two secret techniques.

Even though he could now cast spells entirely through bloodline power, their might would ultimately suffer some degree of reduction. Therefore, Zhou Ming decided to continue using these two secret techniques as the core of his spellcasting system.

For the two of them, both barely in their early twenties, to advance to Professional Beast Tamers would have been enough to cause a sensation in the outside world. Unfortunately, their brilliance was ultimately overshadowed by Zhou Ming.

Given Zhou Ming’s age, he still had three hundred years ahead of him. Once Blue Star was swallowed by Tamu World, no one dared to assert whether he might advance another step beyond.
