Chapter 31: Perfect Human, Golden Core Great Dao
Tak tak tak!
As the sound of cards shuffling rang out, four golden cards with intricate inscriptions emerged. On the surface, there were no differences in appearance.
But in Wang Shuo’s eyes, he saw a detailed description below each of the four cards.
[Earth Dragon Bloodline]

They are the leaders of all living beings and proficient at gaining the strength of heaven and earth. After inheritance, you can absorb other bloodlines to evolve. The bonus depends on the bloodline absorbed.
Note: Inheritors must be human.
Wang Shuo held his heart as his blood began to race through his veins.
Suppressing his excitement, he skipped over the earth dragon bloodline and aeroseplavite bloodline. His gaze landed on the holy angel bloodline and perfect human bloodline.
From the descriptions alone, the former was undoubtedly better.
But in terms of potential, it was still inferior to the perfect human bloodline. Most importantly, the latter was the bloodline of humanity’s ancestors.
Even though Wang Shuo felt that words like ‘the potential of humans was limited’ were very interesting when watching television, he still wanted to be human.
As a human being, he had his own insistence.
He wanted to retain his identity as a human.
Although the perfect human bloodline was far inferior to the holy angel bloodline at the beginning, he still chose it without hesitation.
[You receive Perfect Human Bloodline Essence x1. Do you wish to fuse with it?]
“Yes.”
Then an abnormally violent force washed over him. Wang Shuo’s internal organs and every cell in his body seemed to be crushed in an instant.

The pain penetrated deep into his soul and shattered his consciousness.
After an unknown period, Wang Shuo slowly opened his eyes.
Suddenly, he felt something different about his body.
“This is…”
Wang Shuo looked at his body. There was no change in his outer appearance, but his inner core seemed to have morphed into another person.
He could clearly sense every bone, muscle, internal organ, and even his blood flow…
This clarity of his physical body was unprecedented.
Without checking the interface, he could accurately sense that his strength had increased by 1.2 times.
Furthermore, it was different from the berserk power of taking the Lion Heart Potion before.
This sudden surge of power was extremely docile. It felt like an innate power, and he didn’t need to familiarize himself with it.

“5.6…”
He didn’t expect that inheriting the bloodline would improve his Physique. This was indeed a pleasant surprise. Right now, he was only 0.4 short before he could officially break through to the second stage of the Primordial Chaos Skill.
A satisfied smile hooked across Wang Shuo’s face.
But this was not the end.
“Open the Class Advancement Book …”

Wang Shuo scanned through them one by one. With the plethora of options before him, his eyes were dazzled.

With conflicted feelings, he scrolled down bit by bit until his gaze froze.
