Chapter 500: The Bloodline Awakens

Unlike the intense wave of reform sweeping the main realm, Su Wen was in the Arrow Realm of Magic City No. 09.

To be precise, he had entered the Bug Spirit Realm.

Now, venturing into the Arrow Realm, he no longer needed the company of his comrades.

With his Emperor Level martial arts cultivation, he could easily dominate any challenger in the Arrow Realm.

Of course, there might still be some hidden powers within the Arrow Realm.

But with his enhanced spellbook, four Supreme Amulets, and the Fighting God’s power, he was well-equipped to handle any potential threats.

If things got really bad, he still had the sword pill from Rui, the Master Lady, life-saving charms from Master Zhan, and treasures from his disciples.

In short, his survival was pretty much guaranteed.

Even if Ye Guanzhi from the main Time and Space suddenly appeared before him, Su Wen was confident Ye Guanzhi wouldn’t last a single breath.

“Greetings, Great God of Martial Arts.”

Lan Lin, the queen of the Bug Spirit Clan, stood respectfully before Su Wen and said, “I didn’t know the Great God of Martial Arts had arrived. Please forgive me.”

Su Wen waved his hand. “No need for apologies. I’m here for the awakening of your Bug Spirit Clan.”

“Your ancestors once wielded earth-shattering power. Now… it’s time for you to unleash the powerful force of the Phantom Beast Clan!”

Lan Lin’s breath hitched, and a wave of anger surged within her.

After so many days, they had finally managed to control the negative emotions from the fall of the God of Wealth.

At least they wouldn’t lose their minds at the sight of a fate bearer.

But now, what was this Great God of Martial Arts doing here?

Was he here to twist the knife?

Without the power of Wealth Source, what good were the legacy formations left by their ancestors? They might as well be junk.

What were the fate bearers thinking?

First, they killed the God of Wealth, and now they come here, practically taunting them.

“Esteemed Great God of Martial Arts…”

Lan Lin forced herself to stay calm, suppressing the anger boiling inside.

This man was a Demigod-level powerhouse, capable of crushing the Demigod clan with ease.

The Bug Spirit Clan couldn’t afford to provoke someone like him.

If he was here just to mock them, she could endure it. She’d stand here, representing her clan, and take whatever scorn he dished out.

As long as the clan survived, she could bear it—whether it was harsh words or worse.

But before she could finish, she watched as the Great God of Martial Arts reached up and removed his mask.

In that instant, Su Wen’s aura underwent a dramatic transformation.

The overwhelming presence of the God of Martial Arts began to fade.

In its place, the unmistakable aura of the God of Wealth emerged, accompanied by the phenomena that always surrounded him.

“God of Wealth… God of Wealth?!??”

Lan Lin stared at the unbelievable scene before her, her face filled with shock.

It turned out that the God of Martial Arts was just a disguise!

The one pretending to be the God of Martial Arts was actually the God of Wealth!

The God of Wealth!

He hadn’t fallen!

The Bug Spirit Clan still had hope!

“Yes, it’s me.”

Su Wen nodded, explaining that the signs in the sub-timelines and the events yet to come, along with the hidden Theater God mask, were all meaningless to the powerful beings of the clan.

Given that, there was no point in keeping up the God of Martial Arts act.

Wouldn’t it be better to return to his true identity as the God of Wealth?

Of course, given the unique nature of martial arts and his usual position at the top of the martial path, calling himself the God of Martial Arts wasn’t entirely wrong.

He could always say he was the God of Wealth, overflowing with strength!

As the God of Wealth, being strong… wasn’t that just natural?

“So, your supposed fall in our clan was all a ruse?”

Lan Lin’s mind worked quickly, and she soon pieced everything together.

The next moment, she dropped to her knees with a thud.

“My God, I am deeply sorry!”

“Because of my clan’s foolishness, your disguise plan failed!”

“And now you’ve had to reveal your true identity to explain things to us.”

“I, the Bug Spirit Clan… have failed your expectations. Compared to the oath our ancestors made, our current behavior is nothing but shame!”

Su Wen raised his hand, cutting off Lan Lin’s apologies.

He could tell that if he didn’t stop her, she’d keep wallowing in guilt for a long time.

She might even go as far as taking her own life after apologizing on behalf of the clan.

That couldn’t happen!

In the future sub-timelines, after undergoing the awakening ceremony, Lan Lin would become a powerful Phantom Beast.

In a very short time, she’d reach the Demigod stage, with formidable combat strength.

In short, she was a true god in the making!

“Your future is worth my personal visit!”

Su Wen’s words put an end to the matter.

The strength of the Phantom Beast Clan was beyond what the current Bug Spirit Clan could imagine!

He knew that under the pressure from various forces of the legacy clan, the Top Levels of the Bug Spirit Clan only hoped to awaken and become Emperor Level powerful beings.

Demigods… they didn’t even dare to dream of that!

How could such powerful beings possibly emerge from bugs?

Then, at Su Wen’s signal, Lan Lin summoned all her strength and began rallying the bug swarms across the entire Bug Spirit Realm!

The God of Wealth had arrived!

The bloodline would awaken!

The Bug Spirit Clan would rise to greatness!

In an instant, the bug tide surged.

Countless bugs began moving from their territories toward the royal city of the Bug Spirit Clan.

“Boom————”

A golden beam erupted from the center of the royal city, shooting straight into the sky.

This golden beam was created by a formation powered by the power of Wealth Source.

Any bug touched by the golden light would mysteriously unlock the evolutionary path within their bloodline.

However, due to the current lack of Wealth Source and the sheer number of Bug Spirits, Su Wen could only carefully select a group of outstanding Phantom Beasts for cultivation based on a list.

Afterward, he planned to unite the Bug Spirit Clan with the main realm.

From then on, whether a fate bearer or a warrior, anyone could form contracts with compatible Bug Spirits through summoning formations.

Simply put, the Phantom Beast Clan was a powerful support for the entire human race, so everyone should chip in to help them grow.

To avoid monopolies, the first awakened Bug Spirits would be provided free of charge during the educational period.

The Ministry of Education would cover forty percent of the costs, the Martial Department thirty percent, the Fate Headquarters twenty percent, and the remaining ten percent would be split among other departments.

With the first awakened Bug Spirits, both warriors and fate bearers would find their paths much smoother.

At the same time, related laws were put into effect.

Any acts of abusing or killing Bug Spirits would be investigated and punished by the investigative department, backed by the Starry Array.

The maximum penalty could be death!
