Qianye Ying'er realised that she was behind. The Sect has changed. She could see Xiao Long's influence everywhere, and Artefact Hall installed several Formations and Arrays in the same style as the ones in Young Master's warehouse. The Pill Hall was the same, they have multiple automated pill formations.
This was not all, Medical Hall has Formations and arrays which allow them to figure out what is wrong with the person.
Then there are arrays all over the Sect grounds which provide light instead of regular fire.
Turns out that many people started to 'innovate' like dedicating areas where the pull to the ground is stronger just to train muscles.
This has accelerated one's speed to pass [Elementary Profound] Realm even faster! By this point, everyone passes this stage as quickly as one's body can adapt to new strength!
It's faster than anything Realm of Gods has!
'This place…'
She was only away for several months!
It's only a matter of time before they figure out Divine Way and how to work around Divine Tribulation.
If they do that…
*Gulp*
Divine Tribulation is the realm where 60% of people die.
If they can pass this stage then they could overrun everything in just sheer numbers.
She is not even considering what kind of self-made legacies and powers they will have.
Just imagining them having millions of rings just like she has!
That is slaughter ready to happen!
Eventually, after finishing her self-imposed tour she returned to Xiao Long's warehouse.
She saw him working on ANOTHER artefact.
"How is it?" He asked her without even looking at her direction.
"Your Sect people are getting inspired by you, to a large extent."
"They are. Instead of going around trying to pillage something to get cultivation resources they instead make them." He said with a somewhat proud tone.
"True, this is something I have never seen before, in the entirety of Realm of Gods everyone follows the same unspoken rules. You, on the other hand, turned it upside down and decided to follow what you think is better instead of falling to the pressure of the world around you." Qianye Ying'er honestly praised him at this moment.
"That is amazing on its own." She added two more bits, before walking over to him and hugging him from behind.
"Heh, is Brahma Monarch Goddess falling in love with this Average Young Master?"
Instead of blushing or stuttering, the blonde's eyes gleamed.
"Very."
"I think… I am falling into a hole with no return." The beauty said with a pondering look.
"That's the wrong way to look at this." He said to her as he turned around and picked her up and placed her on his lap.
"Think of this as you are climbing out of a hole, moving towards that light you see at the top."
For a second she thought about this, thinking from a different angle.
Yes, she might have lost her cultivation of Peak Divine Master, but she gained more solid foundations, a pseudo-Heavenly Treasure, as well as hope that her mother could return to her.
And most importantly, she found this guy who is holding her like that.
"Yes, I suppose you are right, my gaze has widened, it was far too narrow before." The blonde agreed with him after a short pondering.
Eventually, she decided to change the theme of conversation as she was far too curious about what he had been working on.
"So what is this?"
"Oh, this? This is an addition to Bloodline Forge."
"You…Improving that already heaven-defying thing!?" Her golden eyes widened as she was out of words.
"Darling, have you been EVER satisfied with your cultivation?"
His question instantly made her forget about this.
"No, you are right. Silly me."
Instead of saying anything he just stroked her hair.
"Do you want to see what this does?" He asked her curiously.
"Of course."
"Then I should start from the beginning. Remember how I revealed everything about you from just a single drop of blood?" To his question she stiffly nodded, she recalls that moment very vividly, it was that moment that she developed fear towards him, the beauty doesn't want to have him as an enemy…ever!
"Yes."
"To do that, I based those arrays and formations on simple concepts of profound energy touching an object which has profound energy.
It works the same way how our senses work, profound energy empowers our sensory abilities which can be spread through the surroundings, our will travel through them until we touch an object which has profound energy under someone else's control."
As he said that she continued to listen.
"Our will touch someone else's will, this way we deduct how strong they are by how much profound energy has concentrated in their body.
This is the base principle I am using to do the same for everything, I tell profound energy to 'Ask what are you?' or 'How strong are you?'
The energy replies back and then I use the artefact to display what I ask."
"So it means half of your things would not work if people had proper protections against such things?" Qianye Ying'er asked him with realisation.
"Partially, one would still make out things, after all, you can still read what the energy is radiating."
"True."
"Apart from that I am shocked how little people realise how absurdly powerful is profound energy.
Take for example Heavenly Star God Legacies, they are in the form of Profound energy, the moment this potent energy enters one's body it enters, in the most literal sense. This energy can alter one's blood just to make one person into Star God."
"Well it's normal, isn't it? That's what legacies do."
"Oh, my sweet Ying'er this is where you show your naivete."
The way he said it made her blush.
"I-I don't go too deep into this kind of thing!"
"Yes, well think about it. The energy is being told to alter one's body according to the blueprint left behind by the Star God. This is where compatibility comes into play, this has happened to you as well, hasn't it?"
That moment Qianye Ying'er remembered how she gained her legacy, her father said she had extremely high compatibility with the main Brahma Monarch artefact.
"Yes."
"So now think from a different perspective, IF you can order Profound energy to do that, then could you perhaps order it to make you Peak Divine Master?"
Her eyes widened to a large degree as she realised that it was the truth! There would be a few issues along the way but one could do it!
"See. Now you understand."
"You are one crafty person, if you could achieve this you could restart Age of Gods." She said with a serious nod, there was certain giddiness in her eyes.
"Yes, well, what I told you 'rough estimation' ahead of us. The difference between True Gods and us is sheer power, when you have this much power even a pebble can become a powerful artefact."
"Yes, but this is where you will say that you will substitute that raw power with your crafty methods." The blonde said with an assured tone.
"You are not wrong." He smiled at her as she was right.
"This is where the whole 'Blueprint' idea comes into play. As he said that he put his hand on the table-like structure in front of him.
This table was different from others as the top is not horizontal, it's more like a painting table. Though the surface was liquid… it was water?
"You see, up till now the bloodline forge did things automatically, I would just select what I want to cut or empower and the forge will do the rest."
As he said that he opened his space storage and pulled out three drops of blood, but these drops were squeezed between two glasses each.
"You see, these are my drops of blood which I took at different times.
One is when I had no tattoos and was just a weak [Sky Profound].
The next one is when I had my tattoos and was a Throne.
And lastly is my recent addition when I added Azure Dragon God's physique trait." The three drops of blood were encased in transparent glasses individually.
"These will show the sheer changes in one's blood."
After showing them he placed the first one on the side of this artefact table, there was a specially prepared slot where he can place it.
In one place the arrays glowed on the table and the water surface trembled, showing several strands.
"...W-What I am looking at!?" She knew this was important but she had no idea what this was.
"Blood, at up close." He pressed on one of the strands and it got zoomed in…
"The true magic of Profound energy is that it tells you everything. This whole table is based on the Language of True Gods.
It's simple 'Thou what are you?' and 'Thou explain this to me!' The Profound energy even bends reality to answer the questions."
"...Oh…sweet Heavens…does this mean you can alter everything now!?" She exclaimed with disbelief, the longer he is working on this the more absurd it becomes.
"Not as easy as it sounds."
His finger went on the water's surface as he pressed on one of the balls.
The image zoomed in as a command tablet appeared on the right side of the table. There was a description of what this ball does. Some of the texts still lack certain letters which shows that the artefact is not done yet.
"What I mean by this is that I can't truly remove parts I don't like, I can't cut and add to myself just anything.
However, this only works because my blood is weaker than the parts I am adding, this caused an evolution of sorts.
This is how I was able to add the dragon god's physique,
However, replacing it with something will be the most difficult part.
Blood itself has its power potency, you simply can't add something weaker to strong blood, as it would diminish its potency."
"That much is obvious, that's why men look for strong and fertile females~" The beauty rubbed her bum on his crotch.
"Such a naughty beauty, we can discuss such a thing at another time." He rolled his eyes, this girl is getting horny at the wrong time.
"...But…"
"Besides, I am not done with my blood, so no kids for a while."
She pouted for a bit, the beauty was already thinking of getting herself pregnant around the time her mother was brought back to life. The blonde wants to show that she can be an incredible mother to her mother.
Xiao Long didn't even realise how fast the blonde's mind works.
"Now look at this, one can focus blood potency on certain aspects.
My blood is an example, as you can see here my regenerative powers grew in power exponentially."
As he said that he replaced the glass containers with his newer blood and highlighted the changes.
According to the artefact, killing me is almost impossible by this point.
Though I don't want to test that." He mentioned the last part with a twitchy smile.
"...Interesting…so you are saying you developed a unique power-like trait on your own?"
"Yes, it was when I used to test pills on myself."
"... That's dangerous!"
"You don't say."
He said that while remembering that he created a blood vein exploding pill…
"That's why I created a pill reader."
"Good, I don't want my future husband dying from some simple untested pill."
"Husband?"
"Yes. My future husband, you don't mind marrying me, do you?" She asked while flustering her eyelashes at him. She was extremely beautiful and coy at this moment.
"After all, you know that I can scheme and deal with your enemies, you don't even need to fight them. We match each other well enough~" The beauty smoothly explained her reasoning.
"Hmm, you are right on the matching side of things."
"I know~~~ besides you just can't stop hugging me, so that's just a bonus."
"Now you're just getting cheeky with me."
The blonde started giggling as he sounded a little bit flustered in that regard. Since she was right, he had been hugging her the whole time after she returned from her assignment.
~~~~~~Later~~~~~~
After showing the extra component for the Bloodline Forge, Xiao Long returned to fine-tuning it.
He was delving into gene tailoring by this point. He realised this after he was almost done! Hell, just because you are in the cultivation world it doesn't mean you can develop pseudo technology.
Well, this is not quite 'tech' but more like artefacts.
With Monarch Realm Cores he can have quite a bit of 'processing' power.
And if it's not enough he can build in several more cores which would work as support units.
Once he was done he looked over his blood development.
As he has shown this to Qianye Ying'er, his blood has developed quite potently towards regeneration, one could see extra atoms around the regeneration atom.
Yes, he skipped hundreds of years of studies towards genetics because Profound energy explains everything to him.
'It's like using Google, it just tells you… runes for the win, I wonder if the Ancestral Goddess was aware how easy she is making this reality?'
The laws of this place are so barebone, one can hax and cheat to their heart's content.
As Xiao Long continued to observe he finally found what he was looking for.
He remembered his Dragon God Trial where he summoned a Slaughter God-like aspect, it was something similar to Divine Manifestation, an art which only [Divine Master] can use.
The reason he could do it is because he has Slaughter God's Godly essence.
This essence is the soul itself of the Star God.
What he wants to achieve is something similar to Divine Manifestation at a casual level.
'Like a Stand From Jojo…'
To do this he needs to delve into blood at the DNA level and find the specific part in it.
Not hard since his tattoos are connected to him at the blood level.
They are like extensions, this is to make sure that even if his hand is chopped off he will regenerate everything how it was.
Though he found a surprise, as there was some stuff on his newest tattoo on his chest.
There was some stuff that his artefact couldn't read. This is not surprising as it's related to the Wheel of Reincarnation and the Mirror of Samsara.
Maybe if he learns a higher level of Language of True Gods he will be able to sort this out.
For now, he proceeded to focus on manifesting the ability to summon stand-like powers.
If he can summon Slaughter God 'Stand' he can use all of its powers as if he would be the Slaughter God.
Once he found the responsible atom, he 'tagged' it and proceeded to increase its potency the way he wanted.
Originally he created this part when he was in the Trials and used the reality-bending Language of True Gods on his tattoo which is linked to his blood.
~~~
Xiao Long proceeded to meditate after taking in some of the Slaughter God's godly essence.
After the potency boost and alternation the essence was added without any sort of hassle, it was as if he was the perfect candidate for Slaughter God's legacy inheritance.
And unlike before, now this part is locked in his genes. This means that his children and grandchildren and so on will have this manifestation gene, though what he is curious about is if they will have Slaughter God as their stand or something else entirely.
'This is why this is so fascinating, I should create some sort of formula that awakens power depending on characteristics.
Just like Stand-like powers.'
The Young Master realised that he could start another fascinating 'revolution' ; maybe those things could become like Martial Spirits from Soul Land or Peerless Martial God.
After a while, though just like the rest the dominance would be with his family and the Sect.
Once he was done with his meditation he got up on his feet and a red-dressed being shimmered into existence behind him.
Just from this, he could feel how overall power just went up. After all its godly being, its godly essence glows through Xiao Long's very existence.
The best part is that it doesn't have any sort of drawbacks, as he left, ego, personality, and everything behind when he took the Godly essence from that limbo-like reality.
'I should abuse that place before I kick-start Well of Reincarnation, I don't think it's healthy for the whole Primal Chaos that souls are not getting recycled.'
As he thought about it he proceeded to test out his new stand.
With a simple motion, the God behind him moved and everything in front of him was cut into cubes, bits and pieces.
It was slaughtered in the most direct sense.
To test this more he proceeded to make extremely thick barrier walls with fortification runes and simple arrays.
This simple wall should be able to hold down Late to Peak Monarch from the simple fact that it was cast by middle stage Monarchs like him.
Yet, with a simple mental command, it was cut into a thousand pieces by his 'Slaughter Stand'.
"Gaah!?"
A squeaky sound interrupted him as he looked to the side, he saw his Crimson kitty looking at what he did.
"Y-You! Is that THE Heavenly Slaughter Star God!?" She walked over and inspected the red-dressed killer-looking Deity.
"Yep, I make this into Pseudo Divine Manifestation bloodline ability. This means anyone who will have my blood will have a way to manifest something similar to what I can do now at an extremely small age AND cultivation." He explained with a proud tone. He just brought over Stands/Martial Spirits into Primal Chaos!
"...No fair! I can't do this!" She puffed her cheeks, as full inheritor of Heavenly Slaughter Star God she should be the one who could use Divine Manifestation of this kind of level!
