Hu Niu was quite intelligent, with her intellect comparable to a human child. She could understand Qi Tian’s words. She didn’t respond to Qi Tian immediately but widened her eyes, looking at the speck of the Bloodline Bead that was close at hand, stored in a bottle.

Even though it was inside a bottle, the Bloodline Bead still held a fatal attraction for Hu Niu. She could feel a thirst emanating from deep within her bloodline. She turned her head towards Qi Tian, revealing a longing look.

Qi Tian naturally did not hesitate to give the Bloodline Bead to Hu Niu. All the effort he had put in was for her. However, he didn’t hand over the Bloodline Bead straight away. Instead, he said, “There is something I need to explain to you. This Bloodline Bead contains a bloodline superior to yours, but I don’t know what spirit beast it belongs to, nor can I guarantee that it will definitely suit you. Also, there is a risk because this was extracted from a White Zombie Tiger. Whether it contains elements that can turn you into a zombie, I am unsure. If you insist on swallowing it, you must take these risks into account. Are you still willing?”

Hu Niu nodded. The constant pursuit of power was not only the wish of every cultivator but also a natural instinct for a beast like Hu Niu. Moreover, Hu Niu was well aware that the gap between her and Qi Tian was continuing to grow. She didn’t want to be abandoned by Qi Tian one day. Therefore, becoming powerful had inevitably become her pursuit.

Seeing Hu Niu’s determination, Qi Tian asked her to sit down, then recalled the method of using the bloodline described in the book he’d found. The safest method was to refine it into Bloodline Pill or create a medicinal liquid, then use a special technique to absorb it. This method would allow the safest absorption, but Qi Tian simply didn’t have the conditions nor the time to spend on Hu Niu for this.

In the end, Qi Tian chose a method that was the most direct, most domineering, and also the most efficient. He opened the bottle, cast a spell, and the Bloodline Bead flew out of the bottle, hovering above Hu Niu’s head. Qi Tian waved his hands, casting one Spirit Rune after another. Instantaneously, the Bloodline Bead split into two, two into four, four into eight… thereby continuously splitting. In the end, they became countless ultra-micro Bloodline Beads, too small to be seen with the naked eye.

Qi Tian had a grave expression, casting another Spirit Rune. The tiny Bloodline Beads descended, enveloping Hu Niu. As the beads made contact with Hu Niu’s hair and skin, they began to penetrate into her skin and enter her body. They were so small that they could easily pierce through Hu Niu’s skin.

Hu Niu let out a heart-wrenching scream. She felt as if thousands of needles were stabbing into her body. The pain was indescribable, especially as a Golden Flur Tiger.

Qi Tian did not comfort Hu Niu, but silently prayed for her. This was a chance he had given to Hu Niu. If Hu Niu couldn’t seize it or if the result wasn’t as ideal as Qi Tian had hoped, then he might have to abandon Hu Niu. Currently, Hu Niu was of no help to him. Keeping her with him was a burden. If Hu Niu couldn’t upgrade her bloodline and improve her power, it wouldn’t be beneficial for either party. It would indeed be more practical to give her freedom.

Hu Niu let out a painful roar. She rolled around on the floor in agony, and some black blood seeped from her body, making it an horrifying sight.

Qi Tian knew that this was the normal phenomena of bloodline replacement. After the blood was replaced, Hu Niu would have successfully upgraded her bloodline.

About half an hour later, Hu Niu’s cries ended. She was soaked in blood and was remarkably dirty due to all the rolling.

Hu Niu lay on the ground, unmoving. If not for the slight rise and fall of her abdomen due to breathing, one might even mistake her for a dead tiger.

Qi Tian walked to her, touched her fur, and Hu Niu rolled over. She got up, snuggled into Qi Tian’s arms, stuck her tongue out, and nuzzled up against Qi Tian’s hand.

Qi Tian chuckled, pleased with Hu Niu’s successful bloodline replacement. He brought out some food and beast meat to help Hu Niu restore her energy. At the same time, he took out the corpse of the White Zombie Tiger and started to extract all the remaining blood, especially the Essence Blood, from it. After that, he continued with the secret method to extract the bloodline from the blood.

Compared to the first time, the Bloodline Beads Qi Tian extracted this time were significantly larger, about half the size of mung beans. Qi Tian once again opened the Bloodline Bead and infused it into Hu Niu’s body.

This time, Hu Niu howled in agony for an even longer period. She collapsed onto the ground and nearly couldn’t get up.

Qi Tian patiently waited. Three days later, a shocking aura burst forth from Hu Niu, who was lying on the ground. The figure of a white tiger appeared above her, circling in the air. Its aura seemed even more powerful than the masters Qi Tian had encountered in Wanjie City.
