Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 83 Bloodline Sorcerer

Five years later, on the fourth floor of the Wizard Tower.

"Master, the twenty-sixth test subject on the first floor has died due to a bloodline conflict," Xiao Bei reminded him.

"Test subject number twenty-six?" Su You glanced through the experiment log and shook his head. "Just as I thought! Even if the dual bloodline experiment is successful, it's not so easy for them to survive."

However, this experiment was just something he did on a whim, since he hadn't even fully mastered the fusion of a single bloodline, let alone a dual bloodline.

The main reason for the survival of the twenty-sixth test subject was his special physical condition and strong adaptability to the bloodline. That's why Su You injected him with the second bloodline, and he survived.

However, it seems that they didn't even last a month.

"You handle this yourself, and also bring over test subject number fifty-six from the first floor," Su You instructed.

Since taking over the Chen family, Su You no longer needs to bother training cultivators, so the facilities on the first floor are naturally useless.

Moreover, he changed his mind at that time and was no longer prepared to open the Wizard Tower to outsiders.

Therefore, he transformed a large portion of the first floor into confinement rooms, where a large number of modified bloodline beings were imprisoned, facilitating real-time monitoring of their physical condition and the progress of bloodline transplantation.

In recent years, Su You's bloodline experiments have been somewhat successful. After a large number of cultivators settled in the market, he also obtained a large amount of physical data from the cultivators through Xiao Bei.

Using this data, along with his years of experience in bloodline experiments, he successfully transplanted a batch of bloodlines into humans.

However, this bloodline experiment was not considered a success. True bloodline sorcerers not only maintain a normal appearance but also possess powerful abilities.

Those who underwent Su You's bloodline experiment.

Although all of these people survived, the aftereffects were very serious.

Just like Su You in his previous life, and just like being transformed by the black wizard, he has always suffered from severe bloodline sequelae.

However, Su You was slightly luckier in his previous life, as he was able to maintain his normal human appearance.

Now, almost none of these humans who have been modified by him retain their human appearance; their demonic features are extremely pronounced.

In addition, the high cost makes it difficult for him to mass-produce this bloodline life form in the cultivation world.

Currently, the creation of bloodline spells faces challenges due to the high success rate. Bloodline fusion potions are not yet fully stable, resulting in a high failure rate and thus making the cost of creating each bloodline sorcerer very high.

Moreover, if Su You wanted these bloodline sorcerers to have high potential and grow rapidly, he would need to use at least second-tier demon beast blood essence to make bloodline potions.

Although he has the means to purify bloodlines, the cost of each bloodline purification is extremely high, and he cannot afford to waste such a witchcraft array on these cannon fodder.

In addition, based on observations over the past few years, the Bloodline Elixir is not yet mature enough; its growth rate is not only slow, but it also cannot unleash its full potential.

Logically speaking, a bloodline potion made from the essence blood of a second-tier demon beast should be able to reach the late stage of the first tier, even if it cannot allow the host to reach the second tier.

However, the strength of Su You's experimental subjects all stagnated at the early stage of the first tier, which should be because the bloodline potion was not yet fully matured and could not fully exert the effects of the bloodline.

"Elder Zhao Qing wants me to come over?" Su You was a little puzzled. He slowed down his movements and turned his attention to the twin clones. Elder Zhao Qing was very famous in the Void Heaven Sect. He was a true genius alchemist, not a fake genius like the twin clones who relied on accumulating a large number of spiritual herbs.

He was a true alchemy master, the only alchemy master in the sect who could refine fourth-grade pills with only a Golden Core cultivation level, and one of only two alchemy masters in the sect, whose status was no less than that of a typical Nascent Soul ancestor.

In all his years at the Void Heaven Sect, Su You had only ever heard Master Zhao Qing lecture once a decade at the Alchemy Assembly. Master Zhao's understanding of alchemy was indeed very profound, and he had helped him resolve many of his doubts.

"Could it be that my identity as a 'genius' alchemist attracted him?" Su You thought for a moment and then shook his head.

He has virtually no contact with the other party; this is the only possibility.

With a glimmer of hope, Su You followed the alchemy disciple to Hidden Spirit Peak.

If one could be chosen by this alchemy master, then learning alchemy would be much easier.

Since becoming a mid-grade second-tier alchemist, his alchemy skills have improved very slowly.

The main problem is that there aren't many elixirs available for practice.

Second-grade and above pills are made from spiritual herbs that are at least a hundred years old, while second-grade mid-grade pills are made from spiritual herbs that are at least two hundred years old.

Such rare medicinal herbs are hard to find in the wilderness; most of them come from various medicinal herb gardens. Therefore, even if Su You has spirit stones, it is difficult for him to acquire large quantities.

Fortunately, he opened a market a few years ago, and even opened a shop to collect various high-grade spiritual herbs. Otherwise, he would still only be a second-tier low-grade alchemist.

Following the senior brother's brisk pace, they soon arrived at Zhao Qing's cave.

"Senior Brother Jiang, you've come too."

As soon as Su You stepped into the cave, he heard a familiar voice.

"Junior Brother Sun, you're here too?" Su You quickly scanned the area and spotted several familiar faces.

These are all geniuses who have shown some talent in alchemy within the sect in recent years. Although Su You has never interacted with them, he is aware of their existence.

Including Sun Tang, whom Su You met by chance, who is also a rising genius in alchemy in recent years. His understanding of pharmacology is far superior to Su You's, and he is a true genius.

Apart from Su You and Sun Tang exchanging words, the other alchemists waited in silence.

After all, they were both famous alchemy geniuses in their sects and were often compared to each other, so it was normal that they were unwilling to admit defeat to each other and had little communication.

Su You waited quietly. Although he didn't know why Master Zhao Qing had summoned them all here, he knew it was definitely not a simple matter.

"Senior Brother Su, my elders say that Master Zhao Qing seems to be nearing the end of his life. Could it be that he wants to find a successor among us?" Sun Tang guessed via telepathy.

"Don't make wild guesses. We'll just wait and see. We'll know once Master Zhao Qing comes out." Su You didn't have the audacity to speak recklessly, especially not inside the other party's cave.

Sun Tang is a descendant of a Nascent Soul ancestor, so it's no problem for him to speak recklessly. However, if the twin clones want to continue to survive here, they must be careful with their words and actions.
