Chapter 303 -305: Lide Level 18, Perfect Attribute (7200 Words)
Chapter 303 -305: Lide Level 18, Perfect Attribute (7200 Words)
Looking at the string of prompts, Lide Kachar was still weak from the waves of excruciating pain that had exceeded his limits, but he couldn’t help feeling a surge of immense joy.
This time was a giant leap to the skies.
Not only had he successfully mastered a plane, but he’d also reached the staggering level of 18, just one step away from becoming Transcendent.
He took a deep breath, slightly collected his thoughts, and turned his attention to his attribute panel, most notably the cause of this series of changes—the Land of Bone-Burying.
Check attributes.
Land of Bone-Burying (Undead Plane)
Level: Ordinary (Next level Rare, Upgrade requires 100,000 Power of Death)
Power of Death: 100
Traits: Growable, Undead Transformation (can control the power of death within the plane to cultivate high-level undead)
Special Troops: Frost Giant Dragon (Inactive)
Special Building: Skeleton Altar (Damaged), can accelerate the transformation of Extraordinary Level and above undead life, unlockable when the plane reaches Rare Level
Introduction: This is a rare and growable plane, once controlled by a powerful divine being. Although it has now fallen into a primitive state, its core power has not disappeared and holds tremendous potential.
Growable, Undead Transformation, Frost Giant Dragon, and special building—Skeleton Altar.
Beyond surprise, Lide Kachar felt no other emotion.
Too powerful.
Each trait within was formidable to the extreme.
Growable signifies the unlimited future potential of this plane, and Undead Transformation represents the fact that he would have a batch of strong undead life under his command in the future.
Not to mention the last two, to summon a Frost Giant Dragon, to accelerate the transformation of Extraordinary Level undead, any of which alone could dazzle others.
Although the plane needs to evolve to Rare Level to unlock these, it would eventually happen.
Ordinary, Rare, Rare, just two levels, totally worth it.
It was foreseeable that in the near future, Lide would have a powerful undead army at his command, mixed with ultimate life forms like the Frost Giant Dragon.
With this in mind, the smile on Lide’s face grew even brighter, making the severe pain he had just experienced seem less intolerable.
And most importantly, since his soul had merged with the Plane Stone, the Land of Bone-Burying was now entirely his.
Hence, any life born within the Land of Bone-Burying, whether undead or not, would bear his mark and be under his control.
This was also why those powerful existences possessed their own planes or divine countries—to mass-produce followers.
Whether or not others lost out, Lide definitely knew he had struck it rich, and it was a windfall that could cause a brain hemorrhage from excitement.
He took several deep breaths to try to suppress the overwhelming joy in his heart.
Then, he turned his attention back to his attribute panel.
Lide Kachar had studied his attribute panel hundreds of times and remembered all his attributes clearly.
The attributes at level 15 were still vivid in his mind.
Lide Kachar.
Race: Bloodline (Ancestor)
Legend Level: 7 (+1) Renowned far and wide, with a Legend Level of 8 in the underworld.

Ordinary Magic: First Circle… Second Circle… Three Circle…
Four Circle Magic: Magma Fireball, Space Gate, Forbidden Skill, Magic Shield, High-level Floating Skill
(All skills details inscribed in attribute related)
This dazzling array of skills was before the upgrade. After advancing to level 18, significant changes occurred.
First, the level.
Level: Blood Clan Ancestor lv18 (0/500,000)
Magic Power: 3500/2000, magic power recovery 20 points per second + 30 points (two Divine Artifact Fragments) + 40 points (Perfect Level ring)
The level jumped from 15 to 18, directly crossing three levels.
What made Lide frown was the fact that the experience needed to advance from level 18 to 19 had also skyrocketed to a staggering 500,000, while the experience needed to go from level 15 to 16 was only 100,000.
This geometric increase in required experience points was somewhat disheartening.
No wonder level 20 would grant the nuclear-weapon-like Extraordinary Power, level 25 was already Legendary, and at level 30 one could aim for Divine Enthronement.
While it might seem like only a few levels away, the difficulty of advancement was sky-high.
What consoled him was that after level 15, the increase in magic power from leveling up went from 50 points per level to 500 points.
Now, with 3500 points of magic power and an astonishing 90 points of magic power recovery per second, he could be nicknamed a mobile artillery, a meat Gatling, the king of the cannon, and so on.
Indeed, his magic power recovery rate had reached an astonishing 90 points per second—the innate 20 points per second, plus 30 from two Divine Artifact Fragments, and another 40 from the Perfect Level ring gifted to him by the captured vampire Marse Sari, who offered it to Lide upon entering the original Land of Bone-Burying to preserve his life.
Blue Heart
Quality: Transcendent★
Skill: Magic Condensation (Passive) After wearing the ring, recovers 40 magic power per second.
Introduction: This was originally a legendary level ring, but due to the passage of time, it had long lost its legendary power.
His current magic recovery rate had already reached an extreme.
20+30+40=90, 90 points per second, without exaggeration, as long as Lide activated the Ancestor Bloodline, his magic would never be in deficit.
Even without activating it, during normal combat, he could cast spells indefinitely, becoming a true human turret.
His mood, previously dampened by the exorbitantly high experience points at level 18, immediately improved a bit.
His gaze moved downward.
The second change made Lide feel an uncontrollable sense of excitement in his heart.
Bloodline: Ancestor Bloodline (Perfect), Evolution Level 10% (Can absorb fresh blood to increase evolution level)
Previously, he didn’t have a bloodline column, and the Ancestor Bloodline was only present as a talent skill, but unexpectedly, after leveling up to 18, it became independent.
And this evolution level looked very compelling.
Now, his bloodline was already in a perfect state, and the talents he possessed were immeasurably powerful.
Just one glance at the densely packed skills on the attribute panel was enough to comprehend his formidable power.
What level would he reach if he evolved further??
He casually checked the system prompt from just a moment ago, “Ding~ You have advanced to level 18, unlocking Bloodline Evolution feature.”
Lide fell into serious contemplation.
“If my bloodline can evolve, can other Bloodline beings too? If yes, how can I make their bloodlines evolve?
Could it be the same as me, absorbing fresh blood??”
He shook his head immediately thereafter, abandoning further speculation.
There was too little information, and he didn’t have much basis for conjecture.
But, he still noted this point in his heart, determined to prompt Dawn Mage Tower to research this area when he got back.
He glanced again at the 10% evolution level, inexplicably filled with anticipation. If his bloodline evolved, to what extent would it be enhanced?
A Super Saiyan Bloodline?
A Swallowing Star Bloodline?
A Dimension Plane ruler, a supreme invincible little tyrant of a Bloodline??
Cough cough…
After his momentary teenage fantasy, Lide regained focus and continued to check the attributes below.
Bloodline Shackles (You have absolute dominion over the Bloodline beings; you can control the Bloodline beings with Bloodline Shackles, commanding orders that merge into the bloodline.
You can unlock your own shackles to open the Bloodline of the Blood Clan Ancestor, increasing strength, body recovery speed, and magic recovery speed by 1500%, an effect that doubles during the night and can use the fresh blood within the body to maintain this state for a long time.)
Bloodline Shackles was Lide’s most powerful combat skill, and though it had no attack power, it could insanely augment his own strength.
This skill was the foundation of everything.
When he was at level 15, the attribute enhancement was 1000%, but after advancing to level 18, the boost increased to 1500%.
This was a staggering 500% increase in attributes, enough to make one’s scalp tingle.
Even though Lide still felt somewhat weak, at this moment, he could sense a hidden power like a giant dragon within him, capable of unleashing tremble-inducing might at any moment.
Apart from this core skill, the enhancements of the other skills were also impressive.
Shadow Blade (After transforming into a Bloodline being, can enter Dimension Space, immune to Divine Level and below Investigation Skill, gaining a 500% attack speed in shadows and nighttime, gaining a Throat Slitting trait, Throat Slitting: Concentrates all power on the first attack to explode with 1500% power.)
The original Throat Slitting trait was 1000%, now also increased by 500%.
Slaughter Hand (Combat Awareness, Combat Skills, and Battlefield Sense enhanced to a Transcendent level), obtaining a Special Trait: Advanced Danger Perception (can sense imminent threats)
Slaughter Hand’s trait: Danger Perception had been uplifted to Advanced Danger Perception, another both powerful and practical skill.
Bloody Storm (Consumes 30% of body’s blood to unleash 100 Slaughter Bats, each containing 35% of the caster’s power, or after slaying an enemy, can use the enemy’s blood to condense Slaughter Bats with 75% of the enemy’s power…)
Blood Storm also had a slight improvement, from 30% of the caster’s power to now 35%, and from 70% of the slain enemy’s power to now 75%.
While a 5% enhancement might seem small, this was an area of effect skill, where each point’s increase might not seem significant individually, but when the numbers reach tens or hundreds of thousands, the overall power increase becomes terrifying.
Bloodline Shackles, Shadow Blade, Slaughter Hand, and Bloody Storm, all four core skills had been enhanced.
This leveling up wave had directly catapulted Lide’s strength to a new height.
Without overstatement, Lide could now flip the Beastman King Kapp of the same level single-handedly, and Withered Bone, an 18th-level Bone Dragon, might endure hits thanks to its massive body size but still couldn’t withstand his formidable power.
Heart content and satisfied, the benefits from this level increase were simply too exaggerated.
After reviewing several times, Lide shifted his focus to another system prompt.
“Ding~ You have advanced to level 18, unlocking Bloodline Skill Fusion feature.”
Bloodline Skill Fusion feature?
After a slight sensing, a surge of information appeared in Lide’s mind.
One could use the power of the Bloodline to merge the Bloodline’s talents and racial skills, creating a new skill while retaining the original skills’ characteristics.
Once Lide confirmed the information was accurate, a barely concealable excitement appeared in his eyes.
If that was the case, did it indirectly mean a skill upgrade?
The thought filled him with vivacious enthusiasm.
After calming himself a bit, he shifted his focus to the other three exclusive skills that did not receive enhancements this level up.
Power of Crimson (Passive, all attacks carry the Power of Crimson, causing armor breaching, chaos element and corrosive damage, converting 30% of the damage dealt into own life.)
Blood Curse (When dealing damage to enemies, can use blood to trigger a deadly negative curse; enemies who fail the Magic Resistance check will contract the Blood Clan Plague, deteriorating by 1% every ten seconds, acquiring weaknesses, fear, powerlessness, bleeding, confusion, and other 32 negative states.)
Blood Boiling (Each attack will boil the enemy’s blood, and enemies who fail the Magic Resistance check and succeed in stacking Blood Boiling ten times will have their blood explode.)
Among these three skills, the Power of Crimson was undeniably his core skill that he frequently used; however, the characteristic that 30% of the damage was converted to his own life became somewhat redundant after he had acquired Blood Control and Vampiric Recovery, the two Blood Clan Spells.
The skill Blood Curse was tailormade for the Blood-colored Blade, the assassin profession, which he had acquired but never used.
This was because, at its core, Blood Curse operated like Blood Boiling; it used the Power of Crimson to invade the enemy’s body, subsequently imposing a negative curse through the infiltrated Power of Crimson.
However, Blood Curse required less of the Power of Crimson than Blood Boiling, and it was an excellent tactic against those with thick skins and high magical resistance.
Regrettably, this skill did not align with his style of being a mobile artillery, hence it remained unused and was kept on ice.
As for Blood Boiling, there is no need for elaboration; the word “powerful” says it all.
“Among these three skills, the Power of Crimson is the core, with the other two skills considered subsidiary, relying on the Power of Crimson.”
“If these three skills were to be fused…”
Nevertheless, the problem is that the Power of Crimson is passive, whereas the other two skills are active.
“I wonder if these three skills can be merged?”
After contemplating for a moment, Lide decided to go through with it. The fact that the original skills’ characteristics could be preserved was enough to alleviate many of his concerns.
Moreover, if the fusion of the three skills could result in a passive skill like the Power of Crimson… would the magic he throws out directly curse his enemies and then boil their blood to inflict secondary damage?
The thought alone seemed very promising.
He closed his eyes slightly and began to manipulate his Bloodline Power according to the instructions in his mind.
The innate skills of the Bloodline differed from learned magic; these were abilities deriving from the Bloodline.
The stronger the Bloodline within a living being, the more and the stronger the innate skills that would be derived, just like with the giant dragons and elves.
If a living being’s Bloodline is weak, it becomes incapable of deriving any talent, or what is derived is feeble, as is the case with humans or goblins.
The Bloodline belongs to an Upper Race, and though its Bloodline Power may not be comparable to that of the giant dragons, it was not something ordinary lives could look up to.
And as the Ancestor of the Bloodline, the king of the Upper Race, Lide’s skillset, as shown densely packed on his panel, was enough to shock anyone, impossible to match even by a dragon’s innate abilities.
So, his Skill Fusion was not as simple as imagined.
“Fusion…”
After muttering softly, Lide’s expression became all the more solemn.
Previously, he too had sensed his own Bloodline Power, able to wield that power to initiate or activate, granting himself tremendous strength.
But after reaching Level 18, it seemed he had unlocked certain privileges that only come with reaching a certain level.
The Skill Fusion’s functionality appeared to result from this.
He became tranquil in heart and mind.
Lide began sensing his Bloodline, then within the pervasive Bloodline throughout his body, he detected several unique auras.
Skills, they were the innate Skills derived from the Bloodline.
A smile twitched Lide’s lips as he quickly identified the targets for his Fusion.
The Power of Crimson, Blood Curse, and Blood Boiling.
After he merged these three forces in his Bloodline.
“Ding~ Would you like to merge Power of Crimson, Blood Curse, and Blood Boiling into one skill?
After the skill fusion, a new skill will be derived that retains the main characteristics of these three skills while also developing new ones.
Note: Non-main features will be removed, and after fusion, the original skills will disappear; also, the entire process is irreversible.”
Having already made up his mind, he would naturally not hesitate. Lide nodded and chose to confirm.
“Ding~ Fusion has started. You will consume Bloodline Power to merge, please note if the Bloodline Power is insufficient, the skill fusion will fail.”
There is this downside?
Before Lide could ponder further, a surge of intense pain from his Bloodline threw his thoughts into chaos.
“Damn it, if the pain from leveling up was one thing, but skill fusion too? Can’t this be a bit more enjoyable?”
Having only just recovered from the extreme pain of advancing from Level 15 to 18, Lide once again endured an ascent into blissful agony.
However, this pain was different from the full-body tearing agony of leveling up; it was a shadowy, cold pain. Though not as intense, it was insidiously heart-wrenching in a manner he couldn’t quite articulate.
After enduring for a good twenty minutes, Lide’s complexion turned pale, and his lips trembled before the pain finally began to subside gradually.
He took a deep breath and just as he attempted to stand and walk a few steps, a profound sense of depletion within his body made him feel as though he had been completely drained, his legs weak and wobbly.
“Ding~ The Skill Fusion is successful, birthing the new skill—Rare·Power of Crimson”
Rare·Power of Crimson: Passive, all attacks carry the Power of Crimson, causing armor penetration, chaos element, and corrosive damage. Furthermore, enemies corroded by the Power of Crimson will contract Blood Clan Plague, decreasing their status by 1% every ten seconds, acquiring debuffs such as feebleness, terror, powerlessness, bleeding, and confusion among 32 negative states.
Active: With each attack, the Power of Crimson will invade the enemy’s body. Once it accumulates to a certain concentration, you can control the enemy’s blood, causing it to boil and burst.
Additional trait: Magic Penetration, the magic resistance of enemies corrupted by Power of Crimson will be significantly reduced.”
Rare·Power of Crimson—seeing this name made Lide’s eyes sparkle.
It had evolved into a rare skill.
Upon checking its attributes and despite his pale face, he could not conceal the joy in his eyes.
True to the system’s description, it retained most of the characteristics. It not only transformed the active skill Blood Curse into an accompanying passive but also gained an additional trait that he viewed as incredibly important: Magic Penetration.
Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.
In this world, most of the high-level beings possess substantial Magic Resistance, such as the Bronze One-eyed Giant Koso whose skin could directly immunize against Four Circle Magic and below.
For Mages, this presented a monumental challenge.
This was also why other professions could contend with the dominantly positioned Mages as their levels rose.
Mages detested high magic resistance above all else.
Now with the fusion of these three into the new Power of Crimson, the added Magic Penetration would allow Lide’s advantages to be maximized.
What were his advantages?
Unlimited magical power and extremely fast spellcasting speed.
These two qualities had transformed him into a mobile artillery unit, one that never ceased firing.
Once the magical resistance that other living beings took pride in was diminished by him, who could still show off under his magical barrage?
However, this skill fusion was not omnipotent; it had side effects.
He was now in a state of depletion, severely lacking in the Power of Crimson. Under normal circumstances, it was estimated that it would take three months for the store to fully regain its Bloodline Power.
To initiate a new Awakening would require at least half a year’s wait.
In other words, the cooldown time for this skill was as long as half a year.
For the time being, fusing this skill was sufficient, and Lide had no intention of merging the other skills.
The remaining skills had all been enhanced in this upgrade. They were frequently used and incredibly powerful, and there was no need to add extra features. Maintaining their current state was more than enough.
Lide then focused his attention on the last system notification.
“Ding~ You have reached Level 18, and the Blood Clan skill development function has been unlocked.”
Skill development? A stream of information flowed into Lide’s mind once again.
After receiving that information, he instantly understood.
This was not the bloodline talent development he had imagined, but simply the development of Blood Clan exclusive magic.
Nevertheless, the magic to be developed had the potential for growth and counted as one of the top-tier skills in the skill pantheon.
Currently, he possessed five Blood Clan Exclusive Spells, which he had mastered upon reaching Level 15:
Blood Control (Super)
Vampire Recovery (Advanced)
Bloody Scream (Advanced)
Crimson Mist (Advanced)
Coming of Terror (Perfect Level Aura)
The levels of Blood Clan Magic went from Basic-Intermediate-Advanced-Super-Perfect-Extreme
The power of these spells was unquestionable, particularly Blood Control – multiple instances of snapping his fingers to annihilate thousands were not unheard of.
This skill could be described as the most domineering and stylish – with a snap, masts and yards reduced to ashes, an intoxicating sensation for any onlooker.
Coming of Terror was not far behind, consistently providing significant assistance.
Vampire Recovery was another frequently utilized formidable skill; after absorbing fresh blood, it offered comprehensive recovery and could even extract blood energy to heal others.
After unlocking the Bloodline Shackles, a substantial amount of Bloodline Power was needed, and he relied on this skill to maintain his state.
The only skill seldom used was Bloody Scream. Lide wasn’t fond of that skill; using it made him feel like a wailing ghost, which was rather detrimental to his image.
But overall, these skills were all top-notch in strength, and they had growth potential, which only added to their value.
The only pity was that these Blood Clan Skills, akin to innate talents he acquired after reaching Level 15, were beyond his ability to teach to other Blood Clan members.
Now that he could research Blood Clan Skills, Lide was instantly intrigued.
Many races had exclusive skills, such as Undead, Demons, Elves, Giant Dragons, and so on, and the skills of these races could only be used by their kind.
However, there was one particular prerequisite – these races were exceedingly powerful and possessed a comprehensive power system.
Comparatively, the Bloodline was not weak, but it paled next to these races.
If a series of exclusive magic could truly be developed for the Bloodline, then perhaps in the future, there was a possibility for the Bloodline to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Elves or Giant Dragons.
These high-level beings had resided on the Glorious Main Plane for countless eons and still controlled their vast territories.
Contrarily, the Bloodline, compared to them, resembled sewer rats, casually chased around by others.
Contemplating this, Lide shook his head, dispelling his scattered thoughts. The Bloodline’s current predicament had been cast millions of years ago; he could not change history, but to strive for a future required starting from now.
According to the information conveyed by the system, developing Blood Clan Magic would not be simple.
There were numerous legends about the origins of magic – a gift from the Creator God, a boon from the Magic Goddess, inherent cosmic rules, the influence of the Chaos Void, and so on.
However, the most accepted theory among the elite and spellcasters was that, in the dawn of creation, the earliest Divine beings created the primal mechanism of spellcasting – inscriptions, from which all later magic was derived.
The magic of humanity was an evolution from those old inscriptions.
The current situation was that human magic could be used by all living beings.
Put differently, the magic of humans was something any race could learn and practice, with only the power varying by degree.
On the other hand, special magic from other races, such as the Dragon Language Magic of the Dragon Clan, the Natural Magic of the Elves, the Undead Magic of the Undead – these unique forms of magic were completely inaccessible to ordinary humans.
The magic of these races had initially been condensed from the inscriptions of creation but had since deviated from the inscription mechanism.
The reason all races could use human magic was that this system maintained the oldest inscription operational rules, subsequently optimized to achieve current results.
In short, for the Bloodline to develop its exclusive magic, it first needed to fully comprehend inscriptions. However, with inscriptions largely lost over time, it requires research into the current human magic models.
Based on human magic, combined with the Bloodline’s casting traits, the task was to create magic exclusive to the Bloodline.
This was akin to developing new innovations while standing on the shoulders of giants.
Of course, the difficulty was not minor; as the human magic model had evolved over such a long span of time, it had matured and perfected.
To modify this on the basis of creating Bloodline-specific magic was a daunting challenge.
Fortunately, the system had provided him with a dedicated functionality panel. As long as he stayed focused on developing a Bloodline-relevant magic system, the system would evaluate and provide directions for further development.
This feature was the guarantee for the future growth of the Bloodline and required significant investment.
All things considered, this function was a remedy for what the Bloodline had long been missing, finally giving the Bloodline a solid foundation to openly confront races like Elves and Giant Dragons.
However, the entire process would be a long one, and for now, the Bloodline remained weak and in need of further nurturing by Lide.
But Lide believed that one day the Bloodline would become an undeniable force on the Glorious Main Plane.
And he, would grow to be the ultimate boss.
