"Boiling Blood..." Ron silently mouthed the name of this newly acquired trait, feeling the changes it brought.
He closed his eyes and entered the Library of Consciousness again, swiftly adding this important breakthrough to the "Bloodline Knight" section.
Comparing past experience data, Ron clearly recognized the value of this trait.
Previously, each time he used bloodline energy to burst, he would experience prolonged weakness and fatigue.
Just like when combating those mercenaries sent by the Transformer alongside Andre, after the Dragon Breath Spray, he entered a weakened state, making it so easy for them to successfully hypnotize him. Even after the hypnosis was lifted, he remained semi-conscious for a long time before recovering;
Or like when facing Marcus, the powerlessness after the burst prevented him from reacting in time to avoid being bitten.
This aftereffect had always been a fatal weakness of Bloodline Knights, making them particularly vulnerable at critical moments.
But now, this "Boiling Blood" trait could undoubtedly greatly improve this issue.
Ron stood up, attempting to mobilize a small amount of bloodline energy.
To his delight, the energy came not only more quickly but also more powerfully, as if it were compressed.
When he stopped mobilizing, the energy quickly dissipated, leaving little feeling of fatigue.
"This is almost like an upgraded version of ’Bloodline Burst.’ Not only is the power stronger, but it also has almost no side effects."
Ron gently clenched his fist, feeling the power surging through his knuckles.
This power was full of vitality and life, like a campfire that was warm and enduring.
He walked to the edge of the training field and picked up a test stone.
This was a hard black stone, which even ordinary people would find difficult to leave a mark on with full force.
Ron took a deep breath, mobilized his bloodline energy to a boiling point, and then punched out fiercely.
"Bang—!"
The test black stone cracked on impact, with a fissure spreading from the point of contact and eventually splitting the entire stone into several pieces.
"The burst power is at least fifty percent stronger than before, and the accompanying burning effect has also significantly improved, though the stone shattering doesn’t fully showcase it."
He examined his hand and found no discomfort other than a slight redness on his knuckles.
In the past, even this level of short-term burst would have left him with muscle soreness for at least one or two hours.
"The greatest benefit is still the reduction of the fatigue state."
Ron recalled Andre’s previous combat experiences, each burst leaving him as weak as a shrimp.
Therefore, Ron had never tried the "Bloodline Activation" effect in formal combat; having a period of weakness was simply too cumbersome.
But with the "Boiling Blood" trait, he could not only achieve more powerful bursts but also significantly reduce the post-burst weakness period and even perform consecutive bursts in emergencies.
This undoubtedly gave him a powerful trump card.
"However, more actual testing is still needed."
Ron thought calmly.
Although the initial results were exciting, he wouldn’t jump to conclusions easily.
Only rigorous practical testing could truly determine the practicality of this trait and any potential limitations.
"Continue forward, step by step."
He casually extinguished the Magic Crystal Lamp and walked toward his bedroom.
Tomorrow would be a new day, with a thousand and one things waiting for him to handle.
.........
The night slowly receded from the Black Mist Jungle, and the surrounding dark creatures became less active, but occasional low growls and eerie rustling could still be heard.
The light inside the workshop, however, was particularly warm and bright.
Only a familiar green figure was missing, but there was now an ancient tree in the yard, continuously emanating vibrant life force...
Ron stood in front of the experiment table, carefully observing the Little Sea Siren before him.
In two days of Beast Fighting Arena matches, Dale’s performance far exceeded expectations.
She had already defeated three opponents in a row and successfully absorbed all the essence of her opponents.
However, this rapid energy absorption also brought hidden dangers.
"Dale, put your hand out; I need to check your energy flow," Ron ordered directly.
"Okay, Master!"
Dale excitedly extended her little hand.
Her eyes shimmered with a peculiar gleam, and her originally pure blue irises now had hints of deep purple and dark red, forming a mysterious gradient color.
Ron gently touched her wrist, activating the "Extraordinary Recognition" and "Tracing" abilities, meticulously sensing the energy flow within her.
A complex bloodline landscape immediately unfolded in his mind:
The originally pure Sea Siren bloodline was now mixed with various alien energies.
The Deep Sea Adaptability of the Fishmen, the subtle manipulation of Water Elements, and even a trace of the Red Blood Flying Dragon factor he provided.
Most of these energies had been well integrated into Dale’s bloodline, but at certain nodes, there were clear signs of instability.
"As expected..." Ron murmured to himself:
"The energy intake was too fast, leading to excessive pressure on bloodline integration."
If this situation was not adjusted, it could trigger energy disruption at critical moments, negatively affecting Dale’s growth and combat effectiveness.
"Little one, you’ve eaten too much ’food’; now you need a little help to digest them."
Ron chuckled as he ruffled Dale’s silver hair.
Dale blinked her big eyes:
"Master, it seems like there’s a lot of power fighting inside me; sometimes it feels ticklish."
"That’s exactly why I’m going to help you with some adjustments."
Ron turned to the medicine cabinet, taking out several carefully prepared potions and a specially made fine silver needle.
