"Bang ~ ~"
After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the altar suddenly trembled. The walls of the temple glowed. Everyone was stunned at first, and then the three warriors of the Zhao Family were overjoyed.
The altar trembled, which meant that a child of the Zhao Family might have awakened his Bloodline.
"Bang!"
Not long afterward, the altar trembled again. This time, it was more obvious. The walls were glowing, and the runes were wandering. A strange force came out from the runes.
The three elders of the temple suddenly opened their eyes. One of them nodded to the warriors of the Zhao Family. The three warriors of the Zhao Family were even more overjoyed.
The people of the temple were sure that a child of the Zhao Family had awakened his Bloodline, and his rank must be high.
On the other hand, Liu Yi and the others looked awful. The Liu Family had been through a great change, and so many people had died on the Frigid Cloud Mountain. The Family's strength had been greatly damaged.
If a powerful Bloodline Warrior were to be awakened in the Zhao Family, it would be even worse for the Liu Family.
Time passed bit by bit. An hour later, the altar's light dimmed, and everyone's gazes immediately swept over the five children.
When they saw a faint cyan mark on the left side of the child's neck, they were in an uproar.
Red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple, black, gold!
This was the color of the Bloodline. The cyan mark represented the Bloodline of the Fifth Rank. The child of the Zhao Family had awakened a Bloodline of the Fifth Rank.
Fifth Rank!
The Bloodline of the Liu Family Patriarch was only of the Fourth Rank. The Fifth Rank was a very high Bloodline.
If this child could survive, he would definitely become a powerful warrior that could look down upon all.
"Whoosh!"
The three warriors of the Zhao Family rushed over and surrounded the child.
Then the three of them cupped their fists to the elders of the temple. They left the other nine children alone and rushed out of the temple with the child who had awakened his Bloodline.
"Liu Yu!"
Patriarch Hong shouted. Liu Yu left at once. Clearly, he was going back to report to the Liu Family.
The Zhao Family had awakened such a powerful Bloodline Warrior. The Liu Family must find a way to deal with it. Otherwise, the Wu Ling County might be the Zhao Family.
"What kind of luck does the Zhao Family have?"
Liu Yi looked awful. She murmured in annoyance.
The rest of the families were also envious. Once this child grew up, the Zhao Family would be able to enjoy a meteoric rise.
"Silence!"
Shouted an elder of the Divine Temple. He waved his hand at the Lu Family. The people of the Lu Family hurriedly sent their children to the altar.
Seeing that someone from the Zhao Clan had awakened a fifth-grade bloodline, the rest of the people became excited. How great would it be if their own clan also awakened a powerful bloodline warrior?
Unfortunately …
For the next few awakenings, there was no movement from the altar. No one succeeded in awakening their bloodline.
One by one, the children went in full of hope, but in the end, they all walked out dejectedly.
Five people awakened at a time, and each awakening lasted for an hour. The efficiency was quite high.
Lu Li had never taken the initiative to enter the Bloodline Altar. He wanted to wait until there were fewer people before he awakened his Bloodline Altar. Also, he was already over 10 years old, so he thought he should give in to the kids.
As time went by, the children of the families and the tribes outside had all awakened. Only a few people of the Liu Family were left.
The children were taken out.
However, there were also elders from several tribes and clans who were watching the show. They wanted to see if there would be another miracle today.
"Go in!"
Patriarch Hong brought the five children into the altar. Then he and Liu Yi closed their eyes and prayed silently, hoping for a miracle to happen and for the Liu family to awaken a powerful Bloodline Warrior.
No miracle happened. None of the five children of the Liu Family could awaken their Bloodline.
Liu Yi looked at the remaining three children and Lu Li with disappointment. She waved for the four of them to go in.
Lu Li took a deep breath and walked into the altar. Then he closed his eyes and sat with his legs crossed. The other three children also walked in nervously and sat with their legs crossed with their eyes closed.
The three elders of the temple poured out their Xuan Energy, and the altar lit up again.
At that moment, Lu Li somehow felt a strange force enveloping them. He could not move, and he could not even open his eyes.
The white light was getting brighter and brighter. Lu Li could feel the dazzling white light even with his eyes closed.
Under the influence of the mysterious force, he felt his blood was boiling, just like when he consumed the Body Refinement Pellet for the first time. However, his body did not feel burning, but his blood was boiling.
"Bang ~"
The entire altar suddenly trembled. The blood in Lu Li's body was boiling even more violently.
He had a vague feeling — he was about to awaken his Bloodline. Lu Ling did not lie to him. He could definitely awaken his Bloodline, and it would be a very powerful one.
"Um …"
Liu Yi and Patriarch Hong's eyes were filled with excitement. Liu Yi's delicate body trembled. Her face was as red as a flower, dazzlingly beautiful.
"Eh?"
The rest of the people from the tribes and the Big Families who were there to watch the show were all surprised. The Liu Family was so lucky that they were about to awaken a Bloodline Warrior?
"Buzzing!"
Right at that moment, the animal tooth pendant on Lu Li's neck suddenly glowed and fluctuated.
Even though Lu Li could not move his body, he could clearly feel that the animal tooth pendant was moving.
"Don't move, don't do anything stupid …"
At such a critical moment, the animal tooth pendant was agitated?
Lu Li was scared to death. Please don't let the animal tooth pendant fail his Bloodline Awakening.
Once he became a Bloodline Warrior, he would soar to the sky. If he missed such an opportunity, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
"Buzzing ~"
Unfortunately, the animal tooth pendant was agitated. Lu Li could not move his body, and there was nothing he could do to stop it.
Soon, Lu Li felt the animal tooth pendant suddenly became hot. The skin on his chest became boiling hot, as if it was about to burn.
"Dong ~"
The altar shook violently again, twice in a row. Clearly, it was more violent than when the Zhao Family kid awakened his Bloodline.
The three elders of the temple suddenly stood up. Liu Yi and Patriarch Hong were so happy that they cried.
Could it be that a kid of the Liu Family was about to awaken a Bloodline of the Sixth or Seventh Rank?
Good heavens!
If a Bloodline of the Sixth or Seventh Rank was awakened, the kid of the Liu Family would definitely be recruited into a Fifth-rank Royal Family and be trained with all their resources. The Liu Family would also be able to build a strong relationship with the kid and rise rapidly.
"What is going on?"
However, Lu Li did not feel happy at all. He felt something strange suddenly entered his chest. He could vaguely feel that something was roaring and forcing its way into his Bloodline.
Because of that thing, his blood was completely boiling. His blood vessels were almost about to explode. He was in excruciating pain all over his body.
"Hang in there!"
Lu Li knew that no matter what was going on, he could not make any noise, let alone move.
This was the most critical moment for the Bloodline Awakening. If something went wrong, he might not even know how he died.
As time went by, the blood in his body began to calm down. The animal tooth pendant no longer heated up, and his body gradually calmed down.
The white light on the altar gradually dimmed down and eventually disappeared completely. Lu Li had already opened his eyes. He was relieved when he made sure that the animal tooth pendant was no longer glowing and he could move.
"Green, how can it be?"
Liu Yi and the others looked over at once. They saw a kid next to Lu Li with only a green mark on his neck. Everyone, including the three elders of the temple, were confused.
The altar was shaking so violently. How could he only awaken a Bloodline of the Fourth Rank?
This did not make sense.
Lu Li saw that everyone was staring at the kid next to him. Nobody was looking at him. He blinked and had a bad feeling. Could it be that … he failed to awaken his Bloodline?
Whether the Bloodline Awakening was successful or not depended on whether there was a Bloodline mark on his neck. Lu Li could not see his own neck, so he had to stand up and walk towards Patriarch Hong.
Patriarch Hong glanced at him and did not pay any more attention. He continued to stare at the three kids with a frown.
Lu Li's heart sank. It seemed that he did not have a Bloodline mark on his neck. It was highly possible that he had failed to awaken his Bloodline.
"Animal tooth pendant!"
Lu Li clenched his fists, clenched his teeth and shouted in rage. Just now, he was about to succeed, but the animal tooth pendant stopped him.
