Chapter 134: Chapter 116: Chimera
[Traceback Attribute Activated!]
The panel’s prompt suddenly flashed in Ron’s consciousness.
Soon after, the entire spiritual world began to vibrate violently, as if some even more powerful force was breaking through the shackles of reality.
Then, a translucent choice interface unfolded before Ron’s eyes:
[Bloodline Traceback - Please Choose your Traceback Direction]
[Note: This choice will determine your bloodline activation route, please choose carefully]
[Snake] - Hydra Giant Poison Snake:
Legendary multi-headed giant snake, each head shares the same consciousness and toxin, providing [Vigorous Poison], [High-speed Regeneration].
[Swamp] - Swamp Consciousness Collective:
The ruler of ancient swamps, able to control wetland elements and swamp creatures, providing [Corrosion], [Life Absorption].
[Dragon Species] - Red Flame Dragon:
Divine Era Dragon species, distant relative of the Sun Flame Dragon, providing [Dragon Scale Armor], [Crimson Flame Breath].
[Sun] - Winged Divine Bird:
Sky’s favored creature, possessing the heat to burn everything, providing [Eclipse Eye], [Scorching Body].
[Hybrid] - Chimera:
Divine Era Magical Beast, possesses an eerie form with three heads and one tail, providing a unique bloodline ability [Bloodline Duplication].
Can replicate one target’s bloodline traits through each head and tail, inheriting some of their abilities, hugely potential, considered as Star Ring bloodline, with potential for advancement.
[Starry Sky] - "Devourer" ???
Ron looked at the options before him, his heart trembled.
Each choice represented different routes of power and growth direction, and his future would be decided here.
"The bloodline of the Multi-headed Snake can provide multiple attack and regeneration abilities, which are extremely practical in battle..."
"Life Absorption from the swamp can continuously recover during combat, almost standing undefeated..."
"The power of Dragon Species speaks for itself..."
"The Sun, complemented by the Crown Breathing Technique, can allow me to go further in Positive Energy..."
Ron weighed the pros and cons of each option one by one.
Most of these options offered two strong bloodline abilities, almost providing an instant power boost.
But his gaze finally fell on the second-to-last option—Chimera, as for the so-called Devourer at the end, he didn’t even glance at it.
Chimera seemed to offer only one talent ability, not as rich as the other options, but Ron keenly realized the infinite possibilities it contained.
"Bloodline Duplication... this means I can replicate different biological bloodline traits as needed, rather than being restricted to a single path."
He thought of the unlimited profession slots he possessed, and the powerful synergy effects brought by multiple professions, his eyes flashed with determination.
"Although other options offer immediately usable powerful capabilities, in the long run, the bloodline duplication ability of Chimera allows me to replicate the most suitable bloodline traits according to different situations. This flexibility and growth potential far surpass temporary strength."
More importantly, Chimera was marked as a Star Ring bloodline, with potential for upward advancement.
This means that as his strength increases, this bloodline may further transform, reaching higher levels.
"Let’s choose it." Ron made up his mind in his heart, reaching out to tap on the fifth option—Chimera.
The moment the choice was confirmed, the whole spiritual world shook again, far more violently than before.
The originally emerging multi-headed snake illusion completely shattered, scattered like broken glass in the spiritual ocean.
The swamp scene also began to distort and collapse, replaced by a gray-white void space, with no reference points around, only endless blankness.
In this void, a giant figure gradually solidified.
It was a giant beast the size of a small mountain, with three distinct heads—a lion’s head, a goat’s head, a dragon’s head, and trailing behind it was a gigantic snake head.
Its body was an unusual combination of various biological traits, with the robust muscles of a lion, the scales of a dragon, and even some bizarre features that were completely unrecognizable.
Every detail exuded an incredible ancient aura, as if from the depths of mythology.
"Chimera..." Ron muttered to himself, both shocked and wary within.
The Divine Era Magical Beast seemed to detect Ron’s presence, its three heads simultaneously turned to him, six eyes flashing with terrifying wisdom and wildness, while the snake head drew slyly behind its body.
Chimera did not immediately attack but looked at Ron with an almost curious attitude, as if evaluating the human daring to covet its bloodline power.
After a brief standoff, the lion’s head let out a deafening roar, causing the entire void to tremble.
This was a signal of challenge and also the start of battle.
Ron took a deep breath, quickly entering combat state.
He knew that to obtain Chimera’s bloodline power, he must prove his worth on the battlefield of willpower.ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt
"Since it’s like this, then let’s fight!"
Chimera launched the attack first, the dragon head spewed out a scorching flame, rushing directly towards Ron.
At the same time, the goat head emitted a peculiar sound, creating visible shockwaves in the air.
Ron quickly dodged while constructing the sound wave vibration magic model in the spiritual world.
This was a spell he meticulously improved in the real world, now usable in the spiritual world too.
"Sound Wave Vibration!"
A formless ripple shot from Ron’s palm, striking straight at Chimera’s goat head.
The ripple penetrated the air, silent yet tremendously powerful, and at the moment of hitting the target, the goat head let out a painful wail, temporarily losing the ability to launch sound wave attacks.
