Upon hearing his first condition, Dan Bingli's eyes showed a hint of doubt, clearly not expecting that Qin Luo would not recognize the origin of this Primordial Bloodline Stone.
In her opinion, since Qin Luo had spent a lot of money to acquire it, he should know something about its origins.
Although puzzled, looking at Qin Luo's seemingly genuine expression, Dan Bingli hesitated for a moment before explaining in a cool voice:
"Ancient Bloodstone, an ancient treasure."
"Contains the original bloodline power of many ancient beings, which can improve the grade of one's own ancient bloodline."
As always, he concisely revealed the key information about the Primordial Blood Source Stone, and then quietly looked at Qin Luo, waiting for his next request.
"So that's how it is..."
Hearing his explanation, Qin Luo feigned a low voice and then, after a moment, seemed to realize what he had said and looked at Dan Bingli somewhat awkwardly, saying:
"Miss Dan, as for the second matter, I would like to ask if I may observe you absorbing the Primordial Blood Source Stone?"
"Miss Dan, please don't misunderstand. I don't have any ulterior motives. It's just that although I was fortunate enough to win the bid for this Primordial Blood Source Stone, I am still a little curious about its specific effects and absorption method. I hope Miss Dan will grant my request."
After speaking, Qin Luo looked at Dan Bingli with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Qin Luo's words startled Dan Bingli slightly, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
She was genuinely reluctant to let others witness her absorbing such a treasure that was crucial to activating her bloodline. After all, this was an extremely private and critical process, and the consequences of any mishap would be unimaginable.
However, if Qin Luo hadn't been willing to give her the Primordial Blood Source Stone on credit, she would never have had the chance to obtain it to activate her bloodline. Besides, he had stated that he was only curious and wanted to understand the absorption method, seemingly without any malicious intent.
After hesitating for a while, Dan Bingli nodded slightly, her voice still cold, and slowly said:
"Can."
Seeing this, Qin Luo was overjoyed and quickly said:
"Thank you for your permission, Miss Dan. I will certainly keep to myself and will not disturb your absorption. I will simply observe quietly from the side."
As he spoke, he handed her the Primordial Bloodline Stone in his hand.
Dan Bingli took the stone, a hint of urgency showing on her usually cold face. She glanced at Qin Luo and said calmly:
"Keep up."
Immediately, her figure swayed, and a layer of azure light instantly emanated from her body. The light swirled rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a streak of azure light that shot straight into the sky.
The light and shadow moved extremely fast, like a blue lightning bolt slicing through the sky, disappearing from Qin Luo's sight in the blink of an eye.
Qin Luo chuckled lightly and said calmly:
"The stage is set, now it's time for the show to begin..."
As soon as he finished speaking, spiritual energy surged beneath his feet, and his figure soared into the air, transforming into a purple streak of light as he chased after the direction where Dan Bingli had left.
Before long, the two arrived at an island, where houses were scattered in a well-organized manner.
As soon as Qin Luo landed, he frowned slightly, clearly feeling that the concentration of spiritual energy here was much lower than that of his residence.
"It seems this is one of the most ordinary dwellings. But this girl doesn't need to deliberately use all her spiritual energy for cultivation and live here, does she?"
After all, compared to them, this place is not exactly an ideal place for cultivation.
Dan Bingli was unaware of Qin Luo's suspicion, and even if she had, given her personality, she wouldn't have offered any explanation. She then effortlessly arrived at a residence, opened the door, and went inside.
Seeing this, Qin Luo followed. Although he was still curious, he knew that this was not the time to ask too many questions.
He followed them into the dwelling, where the furnishings were extremely simple, even somewhat shabby.
A wooden bed sat in the corner, its bedding appearing rather thin and old. In the center of the room stood a small wooden table, on which lay a few yellowed books.
Apart from that, there were no other decorations, and the whole house seemed empty and desolate.
Dan Bingli walked straight to the futon in the other corner of the room, gently brushed off the dust, and slowly sat down on the futon.
She carefully held the ancient bloodline stone in her hands, her cool expression becoming increasingly focused.
"That's just like her personality."
Qin Luo glanced at the house's austere decor and gave a brief comment. Then, he found a suitable spot inside and stood there, his gaze fixed on Dan Bingli, a strange and intriguing glint in his eyes.
Dan Bingli sat cross-legged on the futon, her hands surging with spiritual energy, and a wisp of ice crystal appeared. The ice crystal emitted a chilling aura and shimmered with a crystalline blue light in the air.
Then, the ice crystal cut her finger, and a drop of bright red blood seeped out, standing out starkly in the cold room.
The next moment, the ancient bloodline stone slowly floated into the air and rotated slightly.
With a calm expression, Dan Bingli imprinted the cut finger on the mark without hesitation.
In an instant, the stone burst forth with blood-red light and shadow, which resembled a burning flame, intense and fiery, illuminating the entire room in a crimson glow.
This caused Qin Luo to squint slightly to block out the blinding light.
Then, the light and shadow slowly revealed wisps of azure color, but they were extremely rare, like a few strands of dark blue threads dotting a red sea, appearing isolated and helpless.
As the light and shadow appeared, Dan Bingli's face began to turn slightly pale, but she bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes revealing a resolute determination. She still tried her best to let more of her blood merge into the Primordial Bloodline Stone, hoping to make the blue light appear more.
However, the ancient bloodline stone only absorbed the energy for a short while before ceasing to release the azure threads.
Dan Bingli's heart tightened. She clearly felt that the Primordial Bloodline Stone seemed to have reached a certain limit of absorption, but at this moment, the traces of azure color were still too scarce, far from the level she had hoped for.
At the same time, the crimson light and shadow and the azure blue color began to intertwine and slowly flow, surrounding Dan Bingli.
Seeing this, Dan Bingli sighed inwardly and then slowly closed her eyes.
As she closed her eyes, the crimson light and azure blue enveloped her, gradually forming a sphere that was crimson with a hint of blue.
The sphere emitted a deep, blood-red glow, making it particularly eye-catching in the dimly lit room. As the light and shadow shifted, it exuded a powerful spiritual energy, yet also carried a hint of eeriness.
"Tsk tsk, this ancient bloodline stone is truly extraordinary."
Qin Luo watched closely from the side and was secretly amazed. This Primordial Bloodline Stone was indeed extraordinary. It had already shown such an amazing sight at just the beginning of the bloodline activation process.
