As the name suggested, a succubus' bloodline essence came from a succubus from the abyss.
As for the use of bloodline essence, it was necessary to start from the basics of wizards.
Bloodline, one of the three major wizardry structures, was to absorb the bloodline of powerful creatures and assimilate it into one's body in order to evolve. For Bloodline Sorcerers, as long as there was something in the world that could be passed on, no matter if it was a phantom beast, a magical beast, a magical plant, or even a human, they could absorb the bloodline.
Of course, the three major wizardry structures were not exclusive. Non-bloodline wizards could also absorb bloodlines to strengthen themselves. However, generally speaking, after a Bloodline Wizard had absorbed a bloodline, they would spend many years researching their own bloodline to better integrate it into their body. When they had researched a bloodline to the extreme, they could then prepare to absorb a new bloodline.
As for non-bloodline Magi, most of them would not spend time researching their own bloodline. Usually, they would inject a type of bloodline into their body to strengthen their frail physique.
To put it simply, Elemental and Mystic Sorcerers injecting blood into their veins was a way to increase their physique.
Bloodline wizards, on the other hand, injected bloodlines into their bodies was a process of accumulation. Each bloodline could be used to its fullest potential, and the special inheritances contained in the bloodline could be used to their fullest potential. Bloodline Sorcerers would become more powerful as they progressed. This was because they would be able to absorb more and more bloodlines. Their bodies would become more powerful, and they would be able to obtain more and more special legacies.
At the same time, bloodline absorption was risky. The more complicated one's bloodline was, the lower the success rate of absorbing a new bloodline. This was one of the reasons why there were not many Bloodline wizards in the later stages.
Of course, wizards who pursued knowledge and truth all their lives had ways to deal with or avoid most of the risks. Angor just did not know how to do so.
This was what Angor knew about bloodlines.
"Absorbing a succubus' bloodline will strengthen your body, and you may even obtain the special inheritances of the succubus," Ness encouraged him. "Think about it. You're just a beginner apprentice. Once you get a bloodline, your power will increase exponentially! If someone among your peers dares to offend you, you can use your strength to slap them in the face. Just think about it! "
Bloodline absorption … Angor considered. He thought Ness was trying to harm him, but that didn't seem to be the case. Just as Ness had said, the bloodline essence of any powerful lifeform was not something an ordinary apprentice could afford.
He never thought about taking a Bloodline because it was too far away from him. It was not something he could dream about at his current level. But now that a bottle of Bloodline Essence was placed in front of him, how could he not be moved?
Still, he didn't forget what Ness said just now.
"Lord Ness, you said that you injected me with the blood essence of a succubus to do a small experiment and record the results. What's the result? "Angor asked.
Ness mumbled, "The experiment hasn't even started yet. How would I know what the results will be?"
"Then what do you expect, sir?"
Ness said vaguely, "We'll know after we do it."
Since he couldn't get more information from Ness, he had to turn to his teacher for help. "Professor, will there be any risks if I try to absorb the succubus bloodline? Will absorbing the succubus bloodline have any adverse effects on me? "
Sunders didn't answer right away. Instead, he glanced at Ness. Ness winked at Sunders and used a voice transmission spell. "Just help me. I'm in urgent need of the data! Just pick something good for your student. It's not like he'll die anyway. "
Ness saw Sunders' cold expression and decided to bite his tongue. Clenching his teeth, he decided to use the Sound Transmission Technique to lure him in. "Just take it that I owe you a favor!"
Hearing this, Sunders smiled in satisfaction.
He turned to Angor and said, "Absorbing any bloodline comes with risks. But at the same time, there are ways to avoid and reduce the risk. The Mero Scorpion Flower and Fragrance of Charm, together with other magic materials, will greatly increase your two pheromones. Using the succubus bloodline now will lower the risk to a minimum, and the success rate will be above 80%. "
Ness nodded with a smile. "Don't think that's easy. Without special means, the success rate for the first bloodline absorption is usually below 30%."
"What about the succubus bloodline? Will it affect me in any way?"
When Sunders answered the question, Ness gave Sunders a "you know what I mean" look. Sunders nodded and spoke to Angor again.
"Similarly, absorbing any bloodline, even if it's from a human, will affect you to a certain extent. For example, absorbing an Earth Demon Bloodline might cause your skin color to change, your hair to fall off, and your skin to lose its elasticity. If you don't care about your appearance, these won't affect you much. Of course, there's also the possibility that nothing will happen at all. "
Though Sunders was telling the truth, Ness couldn't help using the voice transmission spell. "Don't tell the truth. Say something nice!"
"But the benefits of absorbing a bloodline will far outweigh the negative effects. For Elementalists and some Occult wizards, the most troublesome thing is their weak bodies. Absorbing a bloodline will strengthen your body. Also, if you get a special legacy, you'll gain a supernatural ability similar to Dripping River. "
Ness joined in. "What do you think? Awesome, right? Stop hesitating. How can a man be so slow? I still need to check your soul. Don't waste time. "
Angor was tempted, but he still felt a little uneasy. "Absorbing a bloodline will change my appearance?"
"What's there to worry about?" Ness cut in. Succubi are humanoid, and they're all beautiful. Even if they change your appearance, it'll only make you look better! "
Angor didn't trust Ness. He looked at Sunders. Sunders was the one he trusted the most.
Sunders chuckled. "I don't know either."
Ness was satisfied with Sunders' answer. "You owe me a favor" was quite effective.
"But —"
Ness quickly sent another voice transmission. "Don't say 'but'! Don't go too far! I owe you one! "
Sunders ignored Ness' request. "But I can tell you about a case. Leona was injected with a bloodline once, and her body didn't change at all. At the same time, as Ness said, she became more beautiful … and more feminine. "
Sunders still did not mention the drawbacks of the "succubus bloodline", but he did mention the word "feminine" in the last sentence. Ness didn't notice it, but Angor did.
"Become feminine? Instructor, you're implying that … estrogen levels will increase? " There was no such thing as sex hormones in the wizarding world. They were usually expressed in pheromones. However, Angor had studied medicine from Earth before, so he knew that estrogen was the main reason for a sudden increase in "femininity".
For women, secreting estrogen to a certain extent could increase their attractiveness. But for men, excessive secretion of estrogen could cause problems such as chest growth, loss of desire, and shrinking of masculine characteristics.
Basically, it was a process of "feminization".
Angor shuddered at the thought of it. "Feminization" was the result of being half-man and half-woman. It was a nightmare for him!
Angor suddenly remembered that Ness said he was studying a "gender problem". He thought the topic was about the private behavior between spouses. But now, he realized he was still too naive. Maybe Ness was simply studying gender problems, such as male becoming female, female becoming male …
"No! I don't want a bloodline! "
When Ness thought Angor was going to say yes, Angor suddenly refused without any hesitation.
"Think about it again! It'll do you a lot of good!" Ness said anxiously.
"No." Angor shook his head again.
"Why not?"
"There's no why. I just don't want it!" He wasn't sure if "feminization" was the right answer. Regardless, he decided to put aside the idea of bloodline absorption for now. Even if he really wanted to inject a bloodline, he would have to do some research first.
Ness cursed out loud at Angor's refusal. "You ungrateful bastard!"
"Since Angor refused, then forget it. Change the Mero Scorpion Flower to the Blood Orchid and begin the experiment."
"I only have Mero Scorpion Flowers here. I don't have any Fragrant Blood Orchids." Nessie was still angry.
Ness glared at Angor and thought to himself, How dare you refuse? I'll make you sick to death! Once the Mero Scorpion Flower gets you horny, I'll summon the ugliest, oldest, and fattest woman in Soul Valley and have you do this and that with her. Then I'll film the whole process and sell it to people with special fetishes!
While Ness was indulging in his fantasies, Sunders took out a bright-colored plant from his ear stud. "I already transplanted a Blood Orchid, so I don't have to go out and buy one."
Ness was speechless when he saw the Blood Orchid in Sunders' hand.
After a long while, he finally said, "I hate people with Sorcerer's Gardens!"
Sunders didn't mind at all. Instead, he chuckled. "Remember your promise. You owe me one."
"He didn't!"
Sunders spoke in a plain tone, "I only promised not to tell you anything bad about the bloodline. I didn't promise you that Angor must take it."
"Are you going back on your words?" Sunders' aura as a level-2 wizard slowly began to show.
Ness swayed left and right like a piece of cotton fluttering in the wind.
"But … I promised to help you identify Angor's soul …" Ness said in a pitiful voice.
"You're interested in special souls too, aren't you? It's a win-win situation. You can see more souls. You should thank me for guessing correctly."
With that, Sunders no longer paid any attention to Ness.
Ness looked like he was about to cry again. Why am I the one to blame in the end?
…
The first step to separating a soul from a body was to perform soul adaptation.
Some people's souls couldn't be separated from their bodies, which would cause various problems such as amnesia, mental retardation, fading away, or even death as soon as the soul left the body.
Most of these problems happened to mortals with low spiritual power, but there were supernaturals as well.
To avoid such problems, one must first determine the compatibility of the soul before leaving the body.
The process was complicated, and only Soul Manipulators could do it. However, the process was quick. Ness brought Angor to a magic array. He only saw various colors floating in front of his eyes. Soon, Ness brought Angor out of the array.
"The result shows that there's no problem." Ness paused and gave Angor a puzzled look. "But there's one thing I'm curious about. Angor has the same amount of soul as his peers, maybe slightly more. But his soul's quality is excellent. It's even purer than Saka's."
Ness looked at Sunders again, "Are you sure he's an Illusionist? Not a Soul Manipulator? "
