Chapter 161: [159] Abyssal Eel Heart!
"The advancement from Peak Genetic Soldier to Fiend Warrior represents a fundamental transformation from the genetic core. Unlike simple cultivation breakthroughs that can be achieved through energy accumulation alone, this threshold requires external materials and carries significant risk of death or permanent damage."
Levi leaned forward, reading more carefully.
"The core requirement for Fiend Warrior transformation is the heart of a Fiend-grade dimensional beast. This heart must meet several critical criteria:
"First, the beast must be of Fiend grade or higher, typically equivalent to Level 2 Fiend beast
at minimum. Hearts from weaker beasts lack sufficient genetic density to trigger proper transformation.
"Second, the beast's elemental affinity must resonate with the practitioner's own Astra talent. A practitioner with Fire affinity attempting to use a Water-aligned beast heart will result in gene collapse and death. The resonance must be at least 70% compatible, ideally 90% or higher.
"Third, the purity of the beast's bloodline directly determines the practitioner's future potential. Common beast bloodlines with diluted genetics will create weak Fiend Warriors with low cultivation ceilings. Ancient bloodlines, pure bloodlines, or mutated bloodlines with unique properties can create exceptionally powerful Fiend Warriors whose potential far exceeds the norm."
Levi held his chin in thought.
"So I needed a Fiend-grade beast heart that match my Astra affinity. With my B-tier Devouring Goldfish talent being Water-type, it
meant i need a Water-type beast."
But not just any Water-type beast. The bloodline quality would determine his entire future path. Weak bloodline meant weak potential. Strong bloodline meant strong potential. This was a choice that would affect him for the rest of his cultivation journey.
He continued reading.
