Chapter 42

"A.I. Chip! Show me my stats and simulate the best way to absorb the Darkness crystals!"

Leylin thought inwardly.

[Mission establishing, gathering Host's data, beginning model simulation!]

After receiving the command of its host, the A.I. Chip began to rapidly calculate, and rows of data began to flash past Leylin's eyes.

The next day, Leylin relaxed while enjoying his time with Anna, it will still take some time for Jayden to attack the bottleneck so Leylin was not worried about him.

The basement of the villa had been remodeled, and a large spell formation had been carved into the surface of the floor.

Leylin placed the Darkness crystals that he had recently acquired at the centre of the formation.

"Based on the A.I. Chip's calculations, the crystals' absorption rate will achieve an efficiency of 94.7% when placed within this formation."

Leylin murmured to himself, as he came to the centre of the formation.

"Activate!" He said the opening command in the ancient Byron language.

* Buzz buzz! *

The entire spell formation vibrated, emitting a bright light.

In the heart of the formation, the Darkness crystals began to melt. First, they shifted from a half-solid state to a liquid state and filled in a bizarre rune. Immediately after, a bright red light flashed, and the liquid within the rune vaporised into black smoke, which circled within the basement.

The black smoke converged, and seven indistinct snakes with red eyes emerged, twisting around Leylin's body.

Ice cold and slimy, the little snakes formed from the smoke resembled a real snake in every way, giving Leylin a bizarre sensation.

Leylin breathed in deeply.

*Sssii!*

Two tiny snakes were immediately sucked into his nose.

Leylin felt as if his body had expanded, and he felt tipsy as if he was drunk.

The five remaining tiny snakes issued cries of terror while struggling to escape Leylin's reach.

Suddenly, Leylin opened his mouth and inhaled sharply.

All five tiny snakes were all swallowed inside his stomach.

Meanwhile, the spell formations on the ground emitted black lights, engulfing the entire basement.

Wrapped in darkness, Leylin had a feeling like he returned to his mother's womb— serene and comfortable.

Only the constant notifications from the A.I Chip could be heard.

[A large amount of essential substances are entering the Host's body, confirmed to be Dark energy particles, absorption in progress…] [Host absorption rate greatly enhanced under the effect of the Darkness rites, crystal utilisation increased!] [Absorption complete! Host's elemental essence conversion greatly increased, currently 35%.]

*Di!*

A crisp tone sounded in the centre of the formation. Following which, the black light converged into the shadow of a figure at the centre.

"Huff…"

Leylin gradually opened his eyes, and a flash of black light streaked past his eyes.

"This feeling…"

Having the elemental essence conversion increase to 35% so quickly was a strange sensation. Leylin could clearly feel that in the surrounding void, tiny black particles of the Darkness element were hovering around like fireflies.

Although Leylin had a Darkness elemental aptitude, being able to sense the energy particles in the air this easily was still a first for him. It was a feeling of novelty. Moreover, Leylin could sense that it required less spiritual force than before to control the energy particles.

"Latent Fireball!"

Leylin quickly chanted the spell, and from the darkness of the basement, countless black fireballs flew out.

Flames gathered in Leylin's hands and became five times larger in an instant.

Corrosive flames continuously formed and raised, and even the roof of the basement gradually turned red, seeming to be on the verge of melting.

"A.I. Chip. Calculate the current stats!"

Leylin muttered inwardly.

[Rank 1 Magic: Latent Fireball. Degree of attack: 40.5. Additional damage from elemental essence conversion: 10.5!]

"As expected! The might of the latent fireball has risen sharply compared to before, and the amount of spiritual energy and magic power needed has been decreased."

Leylin's lips quirked in a slight smile.

His elemental essence conversion had already reached 35%, which allowed him to have an increase in prowess when he cast Darkness spells. Moreover, as it was energy particles that were from his elemental affinity, the consumption of spiritual force and magic power was lowered too.

"Seeing this results I am quite eager to reach 100% Elemental essence Conversion"

There was an outward expression on Leylin's eyes.

Right now, his elemental essence conversion was only at 35% and it had brought him this many benefits. If he was a fully converted elemental Magus, then he could rival the existences of those ancient elemental beasts!

To some Magi, as long as they reached 80% elemental essence conversion, they could attempt to advance to a rank 2 Magus.

As for those with 90% elemental essence conversion and above, they were the geniuses that were groomed by powerful guilds.

"100% is an unreasonable goal for others! But if I am not able to achieve this goal even with my Ability, then I am not worthy of such ability in the first place"

The studier the foundations were built, the more benefits one could reap after advancement in the future. This logic had been long since comprehended by Leylin back when he was an acolyte.

His eyes were blazing with a fiery passion.

"A.I. Chip! Check my current stats, and see if there are any residual effects on my body. Calculate the amount of time needed before I can use the energy particles again!"

A flash of blue light appeared in front of Leylin.

[Beep! Leylin Farlier. Rank 1 Warlock, Bloodline: Giant Kemoyin Serpent.Saint Knight Strength: 11.6, Agility: 10.9, Vitality: 13.4, Spiritual force: 38.3, Magic power: 38]

Based on the stats that A.I. Chip had calculated, after using the crystals, not only had Leylin's elemental essence conversion rapidly increased to 35%, his spiritual force had also risen.

[Residual substances have appeared in Host's body, determined to be elemental impurities! Currently in the process of expelling impurities from the body. Estimated time needed: 2 Months, 19 Days!"

The results that the A.I. Chip gave left Leylin somewhat excited.

Magi who used external resources to advance would often cause themselves some problems. He had known this since long ago. However, he didn't use any external potion which may cause adverse effects.

The reason for the circumstances that happened to him most likely stemmed from his own body.

"A.I. Chip, Scan my bloodline"

[Mission establishing, obtaining authorisation! Beginning microscopic analysis. Scanning in progress!]

The A.I. Chip quickly cast a light blue diagram in front of Leylin.

It was a diagram of a human's DNA helix structure.

The difference between him and regular humans was that on Leylin's diagram, there were many barbs on his helixes. These barbs vaguely formed the shape of a mysterious rune.

This rune was somewhat similar to the rune that Leylin saw while transplanting the bloodline. Furthermore, it seemed to expand continuously, as if wanted to cover the entire model of Leylin's DNA.

[Abnormality in genetic information found in Host's body. Endocrine secretion is different from normal humans. Cell activity increased, increasing effect of expelling poison!]

At the bottom of the diagram, the A.I. Chip came up with a conclusion.

From the A.I. Chip's conclusion, it could be seen that upon receiving the bloodline, Leylin's body was constantly getting stronger. His body's ability to expel poison had also exceeded most rank 1 Magi, to the point that it was able to dispel the residual impurities caused by the usage of the crystals.

[Beep! Based on analysis of the Host's DNA, the Giant Kemoyin Serpent's bloodline is getting stronger, and will soon undergo a transition. Estimated time: 1 Year, 03 Months.]

The A.I. Chip prompted Leylin with another frame.

"Bloodline transition?"

Leylin suddenly become excited.

If a Warlock's bloodline was extremely concentrated, and if the level of the bloodline exceeded that of the Warlock by a large margin, the power of the bloodline would remain stagnant within the Warlock's body, and accumulate until it underwent a transition!

For every transition in the bloodline, the Warlock's body would undergo a drastic change!

What Leylin had transplanted was the purified bloodline of the ancient creature, the Giant Kemoyin Serpent. If one were to quantify its level, it would be at least a rank 4 Morning Star Magus.

As for Leylin, he was only a rank 1 Magus as of now! The concentration of the bloodline was too high, so it could only be dormant within his body. After Leylin's elemental essence conversion and spiritual force had reached a certain threshold, it would then enhance him with a deeper harmonization.

Leylin's eyes flashed, "A.I. Chip, find the best way to make use of Bloodline crystals "

[Mission established! Searching within the database!]

Leylin knew that there is only Possible methods to speed to the process that is :- 1.Using Bloodline Crystals. 2: Obtaining a spell formation that can strengthen the bloodline, but These two items already extinct within the south coast years ago.

Thankfully Great Magus Serholm Stored away some bloodline crystals which can be of great use to Leylin.
