Chapter 445: Chapter 234: Effect of Great Fortune_2
The ancestral bloodline, representing the ancestors of the serpent family, all lay within the realm of awakening. The jiao dragon is the most formidable among the serpent ancestors, excluding the true dragon itself. Therefore, it naturally cannot be easily triggered.

Lin Yi did not utilize the Minor Blessing State to awaken even a small part of the Jiao Dragon Bloodline in White Painting. The Little Luck carries limitations, and if its fortunate effects aren’t strong, he fears he may have to rely on Virtue Points to compensate.

That’s why, even if one used the Minor Blessing State with the intention of awakening a bit of the Jiao Dragon Bloodline, there’s a potential of consuming a vast amount of Virtue Points.

The Jiao Dragon Bloodline could alter the form of a serpent and even empower it to soar into the skies. Unlike Zhi Ling’s Gaze Mink and Lightning Mink Bloodline that don’t alter forms, the Jiao Dragon Bloodline is fundamentally different.

In other words, the awakening of the Jiao Dragon Bloodline is no longer similar to the Spiritual Root of human cultivators, but equivalent to a human cultivator remembering the password to their previous life’s grand account.

Lin Yi felt that it’s about time to take his trump card into play, starting with using a [Great Compassion] experience opportunity to observe the effects.

Earlier, through testing, he found out that the fortunate effects brought by the [Face Difficulties Head On] title could only affect himself and couldn’t be applied to other things.

For instance, when he was practicing Creation Method inside the Red Lotus Fire Field, he had a sudden enlightenment about Master of Bi Hai, which allowed him to see through the crisis. That was him receiving fortune’s protection,

Sadly, this fortune gained from facing challenges head-on couldn’t affect the Spirit Beasts he was raising. In other words, he couldn’t improve the effect of the Beast Handler title with this fortune.

Therefore, attempting to awaken stronger ancestral bloodlines in Spirit Beasts could only be achieved through the fortunate effects of the Merciful Title.

After making some preparations, Lin Yi reached the bottom of the Misty Forest Gorge and met with White Painting. He started by feeding it a few times, as a form of groundwork.

Eventually, he picked up the stewed meat, White Painting’s favorite food, and utilized the [Great Compassion] experience opportunity. Immediately, an experiential title appeared before his eyes, indicating in brackets that it would vanish after one use.

No data-like effects were given in the information about the experiential title, but only a major fortunate state and non-data effects like the Mercy Shield.

Lin Yi naturally didn’t want to trigger the Mercy Shield, but instead chose the Big Fortune state. He then willed for the Beast Handler title’s effect to be triggered, allowing White Painting to awaken a little of the Jiao Dragon Bloodline.

His previous plan entailed Awakening a certain Jiao Dragon Bloodline in White Painting to help it face the Heavenly Tribulation, not to awaken the pure and complete Jiao Dragon Bloodline. Whether his current hundred thousand Virtue Points – or even multiplied by ten – would suffice was still uncertain.

Awakening the complete Jiao Dragon Bloodline would mean that White Painting would no longer have to experience the Tribulation of Lightning, given that it could transform directly into a Jiao Dragon form. This was akin to allowing a middle school student to skip the stress of a university entrance examination, directly granting him university admission.

Subsequently, he handed the food over to White Painting, repeating his previous words, “White Painting, you must believe that you can awaken the ancestral Jiao Dragon Bloodline. Let’s strive for it together.”

At this moment, White Painting seemed to sense an immense pull from the food before it. Unable to resist, it opened its mouth wide, sucking all the stewed meat into its mouth.

After swallowing the food, it radiated a faint glow, especially at the top of its head where the Heavenly Tribulation had previously hit. After some time, it curled up uncontrollably, radiating light continuously as if it had fallen into a deep slumber.

Suddenly, the figure of Zhang Dao Xuan appeared by the side, watching White Painting with a strange expression, “What kind of bloodline is White Painting awakening that it has slipped into such a strange state and even fallen asleep?”

He had occasionally paid attention to Lin Yi’s feeding before. However, only ordinary ancestral bloodlines were awakened, which didn’t significantly benefit White Painting.

This time, however, it was in a different state altogether, with its body radiating light and even falling asleep.

This was a self-protection reaction of the body, which could only be triggered when the body couldn’t bear some kind of pain or energy. This goes to show how powerful the bloodline it awakened is, enough to overwhelm a thousand-year-old gigantic white python.

“Master, look at the top of White Painting’s head; those two spots hit by the heavenly tribulation are glowing. Perhaps it’s awakening the Jiao Dragon bloodline,” Lin Yi pointed to the top of White Painting’s head, stating his conjecture.

Zhang Dao Xuan also moved in front of White Painting and took a look. The two spots were glowing as if something was about to emerge from them, he said with a somewhat astonished tone, “Jiao Dragon bloodline. It’s incredible. Snake species from the lower realm can only transform from pythons into Jiaos, possessing the Jiao Dragon bloodline, only by enduring the heavenly tribulation. I did not expect White Painting to awaken this bloodline without experiencing tribulation.”

Lin Yi shook his head and sighed, “Given my unknown ability, perhaps I can only awaken a little bit of the Jiao Dragon bloodline in White Painting, not a complete awakening.”

Zhang Dao Xuan looked at Lin Yi and laughingly scolded, “Hahaha, you really do have lofty thoughts, kid. To awaken even a bit of the Jiao Dragon Bloodline is an extraordinary feat. If it were to awaken completely, that would probably change the rules of the Cultivation World.”

“Years of continual feeding have finally yielded results. Hopefully, this awakening will help White Painting survive the heavenly tribulation,” Lin Yi said emotionally.

Zhang Dao Xuan chuckled, “Only by overcoming the heavenly tribulation can the snake species from the lower realm transform into Jiao and possess the Jiao Dragon bloodline, demonstrating the might of this bloodline.”

“Now that White Painting has awakened the Jiao Dragon bloodline in advance, even if just a little, it should suffice for it to pass through the tribulation smoothly.”

“Then my worries are put to rest. I am curious what White Painting will look like after its transformation,” Lin Yi said with a hint of curiosity.

Zhang Dao Xuan glanced at the sleeping White Painting, his face full of kindness, “When spirit beasts transform, they usually take the form most in accordance with their innermost feelings. Some turn into children, others into elderly people. We’ll know once it crosses the tribulation.”

White Painting has been with him since it was young, treating him as a father, it might turn into a little girl.

“Then we can only wait and see,” Lin Yi said, full of anticipation.

“White Painting, have a good sleep. Everything will be better when you wake up,” Zhang Dao Xuan gently stroked White Painting’s head, then activated the surrounding protective array and left the Misty Forest Gorge with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi didn’t return to the cave mansion with Zhang Dao Xuan but teleported to the Giant Spirit Tree Herb Garden. There, he opened the title panel and couldn’t help but shake his head. The Jiao Dragon bloodline was indeed too powerful.

Just thinking about awakening a bit of it directly consumed nearly a hundred thousand virtue points. He had only accumulated three hundred thousand virtue points by continuously killing wicked people in the Xuan Tian Realm. Now, a little Jiao Dragon bloodline had consumed a third of it.

When Zhi Ling initially awakened the concentrated Lightning Mink bloodline, it only consumed ten thousand virtue points.

However, the Jiao Dragon only appears in the upper realm and can only be born in the lower realm by passing through tribulation. Meanwhile, the Lightning Mink constantly exists in the Cultivation World.

Close to a hundred thousand virtue points were consumed, even under the effect of the Big Fortune status. If he had used the Minor Blessing State, these three hundred thousand virtue points might have failed to awaken the Jiao Dragon bloodline. After all, this was surpassing the laws of the Cultivation World.

At the same time, the powerful effect of the Big Fortune status was demonstrated. With this effect, his cultivation of the tenth level Golden Core of the Creation Method and breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm would become much easier.

Lin Yi closed the title panel and rubbed his forehead as he looked at Zhi Ling who had run into his arms, “Little Zhi Ling, I wonder what you’ll look like after your transformation. Will you become a little girl in a purple skirt?”

At that moment, the image of Zhi Ling as the Purple Tuber Thanos floated up in his mind, and he vigorously shook his head. What a weird thought.

Zhi Ling squeaked once, pointed to the golden ape nearby, and then made a few gestures with its claws, seeming to say that it wanted to grow as big as the little ape.

“You’re dreaming, with your tiny body, you want to grow as big as Little Ape,” Lin Yi laughed and playfully slapped its head.

Zhi Ling huffed in annoyance, stood up, and placed its little paws on its waist, looking quite indignant.
