Bloodlines

**SPOILER ALERT!**
***This page/section shows content not covered by the current translations.***

Bloodlines are special innate abilities belonging to certain clans and races. Bloodlines, like a Divine Body, inherently gives its users advantages that ordinary people do not possess. But unlike Divine Bodies that are bestowed by the heavens, Bloodlines are passed down by one's parents.

During the early stages of one's cultivation Bloodlines plays a prominent role, as one does not need to contemplate Martial Comprehension to advance to the next level but requires sufficient Natural Energies of the World. In this way, someone who possesses a **Bloodline** would never meet a bottleneck during the early stages of their cultivation. This is both a blessing and a curse, as, without large amounts of cultivation resources that possess abundant Natural Energies of the World, it would be impossible for their cultivation to advance.

In the vast Martial Cultivation World, there are mainly two types of Bloodlines, accompanied by many rarer bloodlines:

* **Martial Bloodlines**
* **World Spiritist Bloodline**

## Martial Bloodlines

These are **Bloodlines**  closely related to one Martial Power on the path of cultivation. There are many types of Martial Bloodlines throughout the series, each with its characteristics. All of these Bloodlines have differences in their strength and degree of help they provide the user on their path of cultivation. How far you can go in the course of Martial Cultivation is hugely impacted by how powerful your Bloodline is. Even within the different types of Martial Bloodlines, there are differences in strength, as those who possess a higher Bloodline Purity also have more substantial talent. Some of the known Martial Bloodlines are:

### Human Bloodlines:

#### *Royal Bloodline*

   The first Bloodline presented was known as the **Royal Bloodline**. This type of Bloodline can be found in the Nine Provinces Continent in the Ancestral Martial Lower Realm. It is the weakest of all Martial Bloodlines shown throughout the series. It is unknown how far it can take one on the path of Martial Cultivation, but it can be assumed the limit is Heaven Realm, as no owner of this Bloodline has been shown to have reached the Martial Lord Realm. The Jiang Dynasty are the only known possessors of this Bloodline in the Nine Provinces Continent. However, there are more Dynasties also shown to possess the Bloodline who live on lands around the continent. Jiang Wushang was said to possess the purest Royal Bloodline within the clan and had the best chance of upgrading his Bloodline to the Imperial Level. When this Bloodline is activated, it can be identified because a "Royal" character will appear on the user's forehead. Clans possessing this Bloodline are called **Royal Clans**.

#### *Imperial Bloodline*

If the purity of one's Royal Bloodline reaches the peak, then the Bloodline will evolve into an Imperial Bloodline. This Bloodline is much stronger than the Royal Bloodline and gives its users many benefits. This Bloodline is most commonly found in the Holy Land of Martialism's Overlord Domain. Clans in possession of this Bloodline are called **Imperial Clans** and possess a high status in the Ancestral Martial Lower Realm. Examples of those having Imperial Bloodlines are the Four Imperial Clans of the Overlord Domain. Jiang Wushang during his time in the Eastern Sea Region was bestowed an Imperial Bloodline that evolved into his Royal Bloodline, although the Bloodline was not very pure. Later he was conferred an even purer Imperial Bloodline by Duan Jidao; this pure Bloodline is a legacy initially belonging to one of the Overlords of the Holy Land of Martialism, Emperor Huang. Martial Emperor is the absolute limit for this Bloodline, as no one has gone beyond the Realm, not even the most excellent use of the Bloodline Emperor Huang.

#### *Heavenly Bloodline*

The Heavenly Lightning Bloodline is one of the strongest Martial Bloodlines in the entire Martial Cultivation World. It can only be found within clans in the Upper Realms because it is impossible to cultivate this Bloodline in the Lower and Ordinary Realms. The demands of this Bloodline are terrifying, but in return, the benefits gained by the user are enormous. Clans possessing this Bloodline are called **Heavenly Clans** Many such families can be found spread throughout the starry sky. Every Heavenly Bloodline Possessor can easily reach Martial Emperor Realm, but a special technique will be needed to continue improving. This Mysterious Technique is called the Self Punishment Mysterious Arts, and cultivating it will begin to limit the potential of the Bloodline. However, as one's cultivation base increases, one will continue to excavate this hidden potential once more. The differences between users of this Bloodline are much more apparent than those mentioned. Those with highly pure Heavenly Bloodlines (Chu Hanxian, Chu Xuanyuan, and Chu Feng(Imperial God Tier)) can excavate more of their Bloodlines Potential than what is possible for others. Those whose Bloodline Purity is high and can cultivate the Bloodline to its peak can become unmatched experts in the starry sky. Cultivators with extremely high bloodline talent might experience their bloodline going berserk.

### Monstrous Beast Bloodlines:

Monstrous Beasts, like humans, possess their own unique inherited Bloodlines that are passed down. Not much is known about Monstrous Beasts and their inherited Bloodlines.

#### *Dragon Bloodline*

Dragon Bloodline is the innate inherited Bloodline of those who belong to the Totem Dragon Clan in the Totem Galaxy. It is one of the strongest Martial Bloodlines in the Martial World and is the human Bloodline that closely resembles that of a Divine Dragon. It is still unknown what abilities this Bloodline grants its user. Still, it has been said that the strength of the Bloodline is exceptionally unjust, so it is expected to be very powerful. The Dragon Clan in the Holy Light Galaxy also possess the Dragon Bloodline, albeit an impure version. The Dragon Clan was a weak and discarded branch of the Totem Dragon Clan before they decided to migrate to the Holy Light Galaxy and became a powerful clan. This is a testament to the power of the Dragon Bloodline if a weak and discarded branch with an impure Bloodline can become a powerful clan in another Galaxy. Long Xiaoxiao, with the help of Chu Feng and Ox-Nosed Old Daoist, was able to fuse and assimilate with the bones and essence power of a dead True Dragon, completely changing the Purity of her Bloodline. During the fusing process, she grew two dragon horns on her forehead, a physical change showing one Bloodline's Purity to be high.

#### *Immortal Sea Fish Bloodline*

The Immortal Sea Fish Bloodline is the innate Bloodline belonging to the Immortal Sea Fish Clan, who are the Overlords of the Immortal Sea Galaxy. This is an extremely powerful Martial Bloodline that can likely only be matched by a pure Dragon Bloodline and a pure Heavenly Lightning Bloodline. Like the Dragon Bloodline, not much is known of this Bloodline except it has allowed the Immortal Sea Fish Clan to continue to rule over their Galaxy since the beginning of the Modern Era. The Immortal Sea Fish Bloodline makes the Immortal Sea Fish Clan one of the strongest powers in the entire Martial Cultivation World that few dares to offend. Xianhai Shaoyu is said to have a very pure Bloodline that has not been seen for generations in the clan, the purity of his Bloodline only surpassed by that of his younger sister, Xianhai Yu.

## World Spiritist Bloodlines

Like Martial Cultivators, World Spiritists also possess innate Bloodlines that help enhance their spiritual power and abilities. For those who aspire to be a World Spiritist, having a powerful Bloodline is completely necessary, as without possessing a Bloodline, one's journey as a World Spiritist is essentially cut off. In a place like the Holy Light Galaxy that contains a large number of World Spiritists, only a few can step foot into the **Dragon Mark Saint Cloak - Dragon Transformation Sensation** this is either because one's World Spiritist Bloodline is not strong enough or that they do not possess a World Spiritist Bloodline in the first place. Meaning they can never again progress in the way of a World Spiritist. Seven Realms Galaxy has the largest congregation of World Spiritists in the starry sky, and everyone there is a powerful World Spiritist with powerful Bloodlines. At this point, only one World Spiritist Bloodline has been mentioned, and it is the most powerful of all such Bloodlines and has only three people in the starry sky.

### Ruler's Bloodline:

The Ruler's Bloodline is the most powerful and majestic World Spiritist Bloodline in the starry sky. The only one known to have this Bloodline is Jie Ranqing, who is the mother of Chu Feng. Chu Feng also inherited this Bloodline from his mother, but it was sealed by Jie Ranqing during his birth not to draw the attention of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion to him. The power of this Bloodline is said to be so oppressive that even influential members of the older generation were frightened from only the release of pure spirit power. This Bloodline also allows the user to have contracts with all seven spirit worlds, which is impossible for others to accomplish. This Bloodline also enables the user to force open a door into the spirit world and forcibly remove any of the world spirits residing there.

## World Spirit Bloodlines

### Noble Bloodline:

Like Humans and Monstrous Beasts, World Spirits also possess Bloodlines. Eggy (Milady Queen) is one such example of a World Spirit having a bloodline. The eight giant World Spirits of the Beast Spirit World, which the Monstrous Monkey King summoned to eat Jie Shi, the Jie Clan & their allies in Chapter 472 all world spirits with Noble Bloodlines.

There has yet to be any information provided as to whether Noble Bloodlines are like Inherited Bloodlines, passed down from generation to generation and ranked, or similar to Special Bloodlines.

Eggy and the eight unnamed beast world spirits are said to have Noble Bloodlines and are considered Nobility among World Spirits. Their noble bloodlines make them more robust than ordinary spirits of the same spirit world, much like humans and monstrous beasts, with bloodlines more potent than ordinary cultivators.

It is hinted that, like humans and monstrous beasts with bloodlines, world spirits with origins also need dramatically increasing cultivation resources to progress in cultivation rank. However, as world spirits refine source energy from living beings and unrefined corpses, acquiring cultivation resources is less problematic for world spirits.

## Special Bloodlines

The origin of Special Bloodlines has yet to be explained thoroughly. Exceptional bloodlines are not necessarily passed down through reproduction but can somehow be granted. This remains an unexplained mystery at this time. Monstrous Beasts tend to have Special Bloodlines and can be presented to other Monstrous Beasts, even those of vastly different species. (The Monstrous Monkey King explains that he granted his special bloodline to his five disciples, the 5 Monster Kings of Thousand Monster Mountain).

Like Noble Bloodlines, those with Special Bloodlines will also have martial cultivation achievements that are superior to ordinary cultivators. Exceptional Bloodlines appear similar to Divine Bodies in that each has a unique power that must be comprehended.

### Mysterious Bloodline:

When an ordinary person cultivates a mysterious technique, they usually undergo severe side effects or have banned it. But a holder of a Bloodline Mysterious can acquire a mysterious specific technique in his Bloodline without side effects or ban. This type of bloodline, contrary to others, has no rank and is to be classified according to the Mysterious technique to which one is bound. Thus, the most important to estimate the row of a mysterious Bloodline is the power supplied by the mysterious method in every breakthrough and the row that a Cultivator can achieve thanks to this technique. (Ex: Zhang Tianyi)

* From how the Red Heavenly Beast talked with Chu Feng, we can assume there are enough bloodlines with the power and sentience to converse with other lifeforms.
