Lin Wu was shocked, to say the least after seeing the quest objective that was in front of him.

"Another crystal?!" Lin Wu exclaimed.

The quest objective was none other than the same kind of crystal that Lin Wu had previously absorbed. Although this one was much smaller than the one he had seen before. The previous one was about two meters tall and half a meter wide, while this one was a mere thirty centimeters in height and ten centimeters wide.

Just as Lin Wu got close, a loud alert sounded in his head.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

ALERT!: Compatible Bloodline source detected.

————————————————————————————————

"Huh, so this is indeed part of that crystal. Did it break off from it, perhaps? No, if that was the case, then it would not have been encased in a rock like this. Or maybe I'm missing something…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

'Let's complete the quest now… Wait, should I eat this like I did with the skeleton?' Lin Wu thought with interest.

"System, should I consume this too?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

ANSWER: It is recommended that the host consume the crystal after scanning it. The host will not only update the data Banks but will also gain more bloodline source, which may help him progress.

————————————————————————————————

"System, scan the crystal." Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

SCANNER FUNCTION: Activated

SCANNING: Please wait a moment.

SCANNING COMPLETED: New data obtained, please view it in the relevant window.

DATA BANKS: Updated.

QUEST UPDATE: Objectives completed 5/8.

————————————————————————————————

As soon as the notification appeared, Lin Wu switched to the information window to see what the crystal exactly was.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

TARGET: Unknown Crystal

INFO: The crystal has the composition as that of the one the host previously absorbed. The crystal contains an unknown bloodline source that may increase the amount that the host has.

CURRENT STATUS: Dormant

————————————————————————————————

Looking at the window that had much less information than he had expected, Lin Wu felt a little disappointed. He had thought that he may be able to obtain more information about who he was, or rather what he was. He knew he was 'Lin Wu' but not what he was in this world.

~Sigh~

'Let's just get this over with…' Lin Wu thought.

He then got close to the crystal and touched it first. Originally he had thought that he would need to consume the Crystal bit by bit, but then discovered something.

As soon as he touched it, he could feel a familiar feeling rising from it. It was as if it was the most intrinsic part of him and that he needed to gain it back. He thus willed it and the crystal started merging with his body.

Lin Wu's body effortlessly entered the crystal and his body started to automatically reshape itself. At first, it was as if Lin Wu had disappeared into the crystal, but soon the crystal started to shrink and morph.

Fifteen minutes passed during which not a single sound was made, except for the faint green glow that was emanating from the crystal. This glow was much weaker than the glow which was released by the larger crystal that Lin Wu had previously absorbed.

If one were to compare it, the glow of the larger crystal was like a flashlight, while the glow of this crystal was that of smoldering embers. It definitely wasn't as eye catching as before and seemed to be much more calm.

Finally, the entire process seemed to have reached a conclusion as the crystal had reformed completely, becoming part of Lin Wu's body. His body was lying in a coiled posture and his size could not be estimated. His eyes were closed as well, as there were no red lights on his head anymore.

Soon another notification sounded as the process finalized.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

ASSIMILATION: Completed

OBTAINED: Additional bloodline source

NOTIFICATION: Please see the host data window for more detailed information.

————————————————————————————————

Lin Wu finally opened his eyes as the red lights appeared on his head again. His body moved and uncoiled, showing its size that had grown. Lin Wu was now more than two meters long and had a thickness of about ten centimeters.

Compared to his previous size, Lin Wu was much bigger and he even felt more powerful.

"System, show me the Host data window." Lin Wu ordered in a calm voice.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

Looking at the host data window, Lin Wu could see that a few things had increased, especially his qi storage and vital energy storage. Another thing that had changed and interested him was the unknown bloodline. It now had an additional (+1) next to it.

"System, what is the additional number next to the unknown bloodline?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

ANSWER: The system has obtained more data about the bloodline data and it has been added to the previous data. According to the system's analysis, the unknown bloodline that the host obtained is incomplete and has more fragments of it.

The system suggests that the host obtain these bloodline data fragments as they seem to be beneficial to the host. Currently, because it cannot be analyzed completely, the host cannot utilize it. But once it is done, the host will obtain unprecedented benefits.

————————————————————————————————

Reading the answer made Lin Wu more curious about this unknown bloodline.

'At least I get more spirit qi and vital energy from this.' Lin Wu thought.

While Lin Wu was contemplating on his choice, another notification sounded.

~Ding~

————————————————————————————————

DATA NODE DECRYPTION: Completed

————————————————————————————————

As soon as Lin Wu saw the notification, his vision went blank for a moment before he suddenly found himself in a different place and saw a few people standing in front of him.

"Who are these people?"
