Chapter 1313  Red river

Eldrin blinked in shock and confusion as he did not know cauldrons could even function in this manner by pulling in liquid from another cauldron. Honestly, something like that had to be illegal and banned by the system at all costs. The elf grimaced.

But the weird phenomenon did not stop there. Just as the blood vortices drilled into Liam's body like hundreds of tiny little worms wanting to enter his flesh and bones, all of a sudden these painful things disappeared completely.

Instead of slowly burrowing into his body like it had happened for Eldrin it was as if these things had been sucked in instantly. In one swift motion, Liam's body had pulled in the whole thing.

And it did not stop there.

Liam shuddered and then something happened. Something invisible and vaguely tangible swept past Eldrin. The elf felt gooseb.u.mps on his currently healing skin. "Wait… what?" He opened his mouth. He stared at Liam who was still sitting with his eyes closed in meditation and then at the surroundings. Everything seemed absolutely still. Suspiciously so.

The next second ground cracked and fissures began spreading everywhere. The entire ruins began crumbling.

"Oh s.h.i.+t!" Eldrin hurriedly started erecting some mana barriers around himself and Liam. But all of a sudden, the fissures stopped and a brief moment of silence ensued which was very confusing.

Then it happened. Streams of rich red liquid started flowing out of the fissures in the ground. That was not the only cauldron? Were there more of these cauldrons?

Eldrin's eyes widened in disbelief as he watched the red liquid pool around Liam, all of the liquid trying to enter his body almost as if the liquid molecules were fighting with each other. What the h.e.l.l was happening here?

The elf could only continue to watch in disbelief as the whole process took almost a day. Finally, all of the madness subsided and there were no more red streams coming out of the ground or the heavens.

The blood red coc.o.o.n around Liam had also disappeared. Everything was dry around them and Liam was silently seated in meditation. Was it still not over? The elf pondered as he had expected something spectacular to happen after everything. However, the familiar golden glow arrived indicating the end and the two of them were teleported to the next floor just like that.

Groan. Liam stood up, his entire body aching. There were still several not so small injuries on his body, some even so worse that his bones were exposed. However, that was not the issue at the moment as his body was mending at a rapid pace.

Rather Liam's focus was on something else altogether. When the golden glow covered his body, he felt disappointment. After everything he had expected at least something to happen, especially considering that the mysterious guy was the one who had pointed him towards this blood and the cauldron.

Even Liam had been shocked when numerous more blood streams entered his body. But the thing was he did not feel any different at the end of it at all. In fact, he wouldn't even know if all of it was real or not if not for the small system prompt now flas.h.i.+ng in front of him.

Ding! [Congratulations! You have received the t.i.tle Bloodline Progenitor!]

But the notification did not end there.

Ding! [Warning! Bloodline has been corrupted!]

Ding! [Warning! Bloodline Awakening has failed!]

Liam let out a sigh. In the end, it looked like it had all been for nothing after all. Well, not entirely nothing. He did get a sweet t.i.tle out of the whole thing.

Bloodline Progenitor: You have become the origin point of a new bloodline, a rare and unique lineage that only belongs to you. As a bloodline progenitor you now may have automatic access to system-sanctioned events.

Liam did not know any system-sanctioned events yet but if it's anything like this Spire then he would definitely benefit a lot from such things. Moreover, he had to imagine that there had to be at least hundreds or even thousands of such events if the entire myriad realms were considered. He could only imagine the huge amount of opportunities waiting for him. There was also a possibility that he would be able to go from one galaxy to another even, not confined to their own sector like the system shop sanctioned teleportation service.

But Liam did have one thing that bothered him. There was the word 'may' in the t.i.tle. What did it mean when it said, 'he may have access'? Would he not have access to all the events?

Well, it did not matter. Though he did not end up awakening his bloodline or even unearthing what bloodline he had, this little trip had already netted him a bountiful profit. This t.i.tle alone was a gift that was going to keep on giving.

Apart from the t.i.tle, he also did receive another consolation gift. It looked like his body's internal screws had been loosened up once more. As soon as he landed on the new floor, Liam received a slew of stats points that he could only a.s.sume were queued by the system until his body was ready. That too, he had gained an incredible amount of stats points this time, almost equivalent to that of a whopping 500 levels!

Liam couldn't help but grin widely at this. He was still at the awakened stage and hadn't stepped into the transcendent ranks and yet he was already around level 2000 give or take a few levels. Coming here to the Spire had been a great decision that was opening many doors for him.

"You did good." Liam patted Eldrin's back as it was the elf who had 'coerced him' to go through this whole ordeal.

"Thank you?" Eldrin did not know why the guy was thanking him but he had to choke down the feeling of wanting to puke on seeing the disgusting smile on Liam's smile. The elf couldn't help but wonder just what the h.e.l.l he had gained to make the serious guy smile like a rotten child?
