Chapter 2274 Ziran's Disappointment

Lin Mu's words were a bit of a surprise to the man but soon his eyes went wide in realization.
"Of course, I was so occupied in this, I forgot I have others to help with." Ziran replied. He had mostly been exploring the worlds alone, as such didn't really have that option. And when he did have others with him, they were seldom capable of helping him anyways.
As such, he had mostly been limited to his own capabilities and all that he had learned.
"So what would you propose, Daoist Mu Lin?" Ziran asked.
"Well, let's start with what you were doing. Some elven method?" Lin Mu asked first.
"Yes, the method is more specifically a Dark elf technique that allows us to look through all kinds of darkness." Ziran replied. "All kinds? Even the Death Qi?" Lin Mu was a bit doubtful.
"Even that." Ziran nodded. "I've been told of it even being capable of looking through the very darkness of the void. Though perhaps it is something that needs more than just the bloodline of a Dark Elf." He explained.
"That is certainly quite strong." Lin Mu could see the power of the skill as looking through the void was something most immortals found difficult if not impossible.
One needed Spatial Perception in order to be able to do it properly, otherwise Immortal sense was the only other way of sensing things there. But that limited one's perception to the range their Immortal Sense extended in and only to the objects within it.
And even then, using Immortal Sense was not the safest option either, as stray wisps of Spatial energy could very easily shred their immortal sense and damage the immortal as well.
Unless these Spatial Energy wisps were concentrated enough, one wouldn't even be able to see them normally. And if their immortal sense met it, it would already be too late.
"What is the skill called?" Lin Mu asked.
"It's called as Eyes of the Underdark and is something most elves should be able to use it since it is linked to their bloodline. Though it does take a while to learn it." Ziran explained further.
"So I reckon you've learned it?" Lin Mu inquired.
"I did… Except I wasn't really good at it." Ziran replied. "While I can use it in normal darkness and a few illusory arrays, it does not extend beyond that. I've been trying to improve my control over the skill, but looks like I've hit a limitation." He explained.
"A bloodline limitation." Lin Mu could already guess.
"Indeed. As you know I am a half elf, but only a quarter dark elf. As such, the bloodline skill seems to have hit a bottleneck." Ziran stated. "Perhaps even an upper limit."
"Hmm… that is indeed a complex problem." Lin Mu replied knowing that problems of Bloodline weren't easy to solve.
This was often the case with people or creatures with multiple bloodlines and was commonly called as bloodline dilution. It was why it was preferred to have a pure bloodline.
It was very rare for beasts like Little Shrubby to have access to multiple bloodline abilities as it often needed the bloodlines to be in a certain balance.
In Ziran's case, his bloodline was divided into three being that of Wood Elf, Dark Elf and Human. And due to this, he didn't get the elemental affinities of darkness and shadows that the Dark elves could have. But he did manage to get the Wood elemental affinity that the Wood Elves had.
"My mother was a Half Dark elf and still managed to use the Eyes of the Underdark to its full potential thus I had hoped that it would not have limited me. But looks like it really has…" Ziran spoke.
"Hmm… Is there any other method one can use to improve the progression of the skill?" Lin Mu asked, knowing that bloodlines could very well be strengthened or amplified in certain ways.
"There is… though I don't think it is something possible for us." Ziran answered. "Eyes of the Underdark was originally a skill that was created by the Dark Elves as a necessity because of the environment they lived in.
It was actually similar to what we're facing right now." He explained.
"Oh? There was Death Qi there too?" Lin Mu asked feeling curious.
"There might be, but the original records state there was a lot of Death Mana in the ancestral lands of the Dark Elves. They lived deep underground and as such, the dead souls and lingering resentment of dead would seep down, eventually affecting the ambient mana and transforming it into Death Mana." Ziran answered.
"So the method is related to the ancestral land of the Dark Elves?" Lin Mu guessed.
"Indeed." Ziran nodded. "Such environment gave birth to various kinds of plants and animals, among which was a special kind of fungus. It was called as the Moonless Fungus and its juice when applied into the eyes of the Dark Elves could greatly assist in learning the Eyes of the Underdark." He explained.
Hearing the name, Lin Mu could actually recognize it. But the problem was, he certainly didn't have the Moonless Fungus with him. 'Doesn't seem like that method will work.' Lin Mu thought to himself. But it was now that he heard a voice in his mind.
"He merely needs a little pressure." Xukong spoke.
"Huh? Pressure?" Lin Mu was surprised by Xukong's suggestion. "In what way?"
"Something that would force his Dark Elf Bloodline to act out." Xukong replied. "If he tries to improve the skill with that pressure, he'll surely improve. He's a quarter Dark Elf, that's already more than enough to learn all innate skills of that race. I've seen people with less than five percent bloodline manage to learn Bloodline Skills." He explained.
Hearing that Lin Mu had a look of intrigue on his face.
"Should I use the bloodline aura of the Great Slumber Bear for that?" Lin Mu asked wondering if that might work.
