Chapter 100: -88- Bloodline Clan and True Ancestor Liberation

"The Clan of Royal Authority... could it be that the reason I’m so powerful after ascending to the Starry Rank is that my Bloodline has changed?"

Charlotte was pensive.

She was well aware that her bloodline had not been that of the Clan of Royal Authority, Kilari, but rather, that of the Dark Clan, Shedite.

That was the Bloodline she awakened after seizing the power of her deranged grandmother.

After becoming a Bloodline, Charlotte had specifically studied the bloodlines of her kin.

It is said that there are six great clans among the Bloodlines.

However, after thousands of years of infighting, the Bloodlines had already declined, with only five of the six great clans remaining.

According to Charlotte’s understanding, the existing five great clans of the Bloodline were:

The Wildness Clan, Vadret, which specialized in the resonance of the Wildness Path, mainly active in the Coria Kingdom and the Black Land of Eastern Yonette.

The Spirit Clan, Salem, which specialized in the resonance of the Spirit Path, mainly active in the Coria Kingdom and the West Yonette Empire.

The Blood and Flesh Clan, Harcos, which specialized in the resonance of the Blood and Flesh Path, mainly active in the West Yonette Empire and the Northern Territory Duchy.

The Observation Clan, Nais, which specialized in the resonance of the Observation Path, mainly active in the Falling Star Kingdom and Moon God Island.

And the Dark Clan, Shedite, which specialized in the resonance of the Dark Path, mainly active in the New Moon Kingdom and Moon God Coast City States.

Beyond these, there was the last Bloodline clan that had already dissipated.

That was the clan which once ruled over the entire Bloodline, also known as the Bloodline of Royal Authority or the Clan of Royal Authority—the Kilari.

Since the Bloodline of Royal Authority had long disappeared, even Charlotte could not find any special features of the Kilari clan.

But now, Charlotte’s Bloodline had become Kilari, and her strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Starry Rank, which made her wonder—

Perhaps the strength far surpassing her peers was due to the augmentation of the Bloodline’s Royal Authority?

The Royal Authority...

Could this bloodline also be related to the Bloodline’s True Ancestor?

Charlotte was reflective.

Meanwhile, Charlotte also recalled a detail from her ascension; as she stepped into the Starry Rank, the Blood Holy Scripture had burst forth with a mysterious power that surged into her body.

Under the blessing of that mysterious power, Charlotte’s physical body in reality also underwent a transformation, only after which she advanced to the first tier of the Starry Rank.

And after awakening the "True Ancestor Liberation," Charlotte knew what that mysterious power was.

It was Divine Power.

More precisely, it was the Blood Divine Power.

The source of the Blood Divine Power was still the "Blood Holy Scripture."

However, it was not solely the Blood Holy Scripture but seemed to be some wonderful chemical reaction produced by the fusion of Charlotte’s soul and the Blood Holy Scripture.

Charlotte focused her attention on "True Ancestor Liberation" again.

Details about True Ancestor Liberation once again surfaced in Charlotte’s mind—

"True Ancestor Liberation (activatable)"

"As the Master of Holy Scripture and a descendent of the Bloodline of Royal Authority, you shall possess the ability to liberate the True Ancestor, allowing you to consume Divine Power and temporarily gain the power of the True Ancestor."

"The strength and duration of True Ancestor Liberation are limited by Divine Power; the current maximum output level is that of a Saint, with a maximum duration of one minute."

"After liberation, abilities require cooldown, and a second onset is possible only after Divine Power has been restored."

"The ability to awaken True Ancestor Liberation belongs only to the Bloodline of Royal Authority... So, during my ascension, I must have triggered some mechanism of the Blood Holy Scripture, and the outpouring Divine Power transformed my bloodline."

"And after possessing the bloodline of Royal Authority, I awoke to True Ancestor Liberation..."

Charlotte quickly sorted through these relationships.

What followed was another bizarre notion.

Only the Royal Authority Bloodline could master "True Ancestor Liberation."

It seemed as though the "Blood Holy Scripture" was tailor-made for the Bloodline of Royal Authority.

"Hiss... Could it be that the extinction of the Bloodline’s Royal Authority Bloodline was the work of the other five great clans acting together?"

Charlotte had a somewhat odd expression on her face.

Of course, she was not currently part of the Bloodline circle, and the internal affairs of the Bloodline had nothing to do with her.

But she had a vague premonition.

After she stepped into the Bloodline’s social circle in the future, her bloodline might become a huge surprise, or perhaps... a great trouble.

As for now, the Bloodline circle in Bold had only those crazed fellows of the Blood Demon Church, and Charlotte had no intention whatsoever of mingling with them.

Not only that, she wanted to get rid of them.

Pushing aside her chaotic thoughts, Charlotte continued to study the "True Ancestor Liberation."

She carefully communicated with the divine power surrounding the Blood Holy Scripture deep within her body with her consciousness and once again experienced the sensation of a shift in perspective that she had during her promotion.

However, Charlotte was prepared this time. She did not actually activate "True Ancestor Liberation" but instead hovered on the edge of activation, repeatedly probing to gather specific information about this ability.

As Charlotte’s perception deepened, a crimson glow radiated from her, flickering bright and dim, with an ancient and weathered aura appearing and disappearing intermittently.

After a moment, Charlotte reopened her eyes.

Through repeated probing, a vast amount of information flooded into her mind, giving her a further understanding of the power of "True Ancestor Liberation."

"True Ancestor Liberation allows one to temporarily possess strength at the saintly level, and saints are the embodiment of deities after descending to walk upon the earth."

"Currently, saintly level strength is infinitely close to that of a demigod, yet it cannot reach the status of a demigod, because the Mireya world is in a period of low magic power and cannot sustain the strength of a demigod."

"The output level is saintly, referring to the maximum output level being saintly. Below the maximum output level, divine power will be rapidly exhausted, and the duration of maintaining the True Ancestor Liberation form may further decrease..."

"If one fully unleashes the strength of a saint, it may not last even 58.5 seconds; it could possibly only persist for a few seconds..."

"The power of ’True Ancestor Liberation’ must be used with caution!"

"The Blood Holy Scripture is a divine artifact. Its base cover once stored a good amount of Blood Divine Power, most of which is sealed and must be unlocked through either completing the Holy Scripture or the Master of Holy Scripture advancing in rank..."

"Besides that, once the divine power is exhausted, it needs to be replenished through other means."

"There are two ideas for replenishment."

"One is to absorb the power of other deities, similar to the power of Holy Light absorbed from Divine Lord Haral during the Divine Technique Counter, which is an ’upgraded version’ of the ’blood sucking’ power of Bloodline deities."

"The other method is through the transformation of faith..."

"Transformation of faith? Faith can be converted into energy? That means...belief?"

Charlotte’s heart skipped a beat:

"Good heavens, this isn’t suggesting that I become a missionary, is it?"

Charlotte immediately dismissed the notion of becoming a missionary.

She was now in the heartland of the New Moon Kingdom, on the territory of the largest church, the Holy Royal Court, in Mireya. To preach here was to court death...

Not to mention she was not a deity, nor could she respond to believers, let alone bestow Divine Arts.

Even if she were to preach in secret, that would have to wait until she returned to her own domain and found a way to carry it out!

Count Castel’s domain was far from the emperor’s reach and on the fringes of the Holy Royal Court’s belief system, making it very suitable for causing trouble.

"So... If I want to obtain divine power now, aside from advancing in rank or completing the Blood Holy Scripture, I still need to fleece other churches!"

Charlotte quickly set her sights on the Holy Royal Court.

Of course, with 58.5 seconds of True Ancestor Liberation, for the time being... she wasn’t lacking in divine power, it was just that she needed to plan ahead.

Understanding the power of True Ancestor Liberation, Charlotte’s mood grew even more excited.

Without a doubt, this would be her biggest trump card!

Suppressing the joy in her heart, Charlotte then focused her attention on the newly acquired Holy Scripture Fragments.

In the sea of consciousness, the "Blood Holy Scripture" opened once more, quickly turning to the page after the Spirit Chapter, where the additional Holy Scripture Fragment appeared.

Golden letters slowly emerged on the Holy Scripture, and new information appeared in Charlotte’s mind—

"Blood Holy Scripture-Dark Chapter."

"We walk in the darkness,"

"Darkness is us, and we are the darkness."

"Controlling the power of blood, the Blood Spirit is our foundation;"

"Seeking shelter in the night, Shadow is our armament;"

"Stealing the secrets of life and death, the Undead is our extension."

"Chapter of Darkness-Undead Section (Unlocked)"

"Discovered Magic System: Undead Revival."

"Undead Revival: A basic magic of the Bloodline’s Dark Path and Undead magic system, capable of awakening and reviving the Undead. The duration and quantity are inversely proportional to the magic power consumed and the strength of the Undead."

"Would you like to inherit this?"

Undead Revival?

Charlotte blinked slightly.

She recognized it, this Holy Scripture Fragment... was actually the one the crazy old crone had taken away by the Demon Hunting Knight!
