Absolute Choice Chapter 520

The Infernal Queen said with a chuckle, "Darling, use your heart to sense the existence of the green dot and a green mountain will appear in your mind. Darling can attempt pushing the green mountain."

Shi Xiaobai was alarmed. He knew that he could not allow her to lead him by the nose. However, he could not ignore the sudden appearance of the tiny green dot. After a moment of hesitation, he took a deep breath. He wanted to know what nefarious scheme the Infernal Queen was up to.

Shi Xiaobai closed his thought in cogitation as he sensed the existence of the green dot with his mind. Indeed, as she had mentioned, he saw a mountain rise up from the ground. It was a green mountain that pierced through the clouds.

How was he to push a mountain?

Shi Xiaobai was somewhat puzzled but as he instinctively pushed the bottom of the green mountain, it slowly began moving!

It was simple to push it, but what unfolded in his mind was the shaking of the earth as the mountain moved. It gave Shi Xiaobai a fright.

At that moment, the Infernal Queen suddenly said, "Darling, open your eyes and look at yourself."

Shi Xiaobai opened his eyes and raised his arms. Immediately, he was dumbfounded.

He saw that his not very muscular fair arms had turned green. His entire arm had thickened and muscles were bulging around his arm. There were veins that seemed to run through them like dragons as though they were rushing with power.

Shi Xiaobai hurriedly looked elsewhere and discovered that every part of his body had turned green. He was suddenly a lot taller and his entire body had turned burly. His arms and legs were thick and he was covered in muscles. His pectoral muscles bulged out and they seemed to possess tremendous amounts of strength.

Shi Xiaobai acutely sensed that his physical qualities had clearly been enhanced. With the Power of Taotie, he had managed to clash with King Leonis with his powerful physique. However, with his present physical toughness, King Leonis was probably not his match!

What the hell was going on?

The Infernal Queen said in a timely fashion, "This is the Transcendental Nine Transformations' third transformation. I never expected Darling to be able to use the third transformation after having just fused with the Transcendent's bloodline. You truly have astounding talent."

Shi Xiaobai frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Why did this happen? Didn't the Transcendent King's heritage power clearly self-destruct!?"

Shi Xiaobai had innately sensed that the Infernal Queen was not lying. Having used the Transcendental third transformation, his mind had very quickly been infused with the relevant information of the 'Transcendental Nine Transformations'. It was like a memory or heritage. Using the knowledge of the heritage, he removed the 'Transcendental Nine Transformations' and immediately, he was restored to his original state.

Shi Xiaobai drew a gasp of cold air. He had indeed gained control of the 'Transcendental Nine Transformations' that was unique to the Transcendents in a baffling manner. However, he was still of human form. He did not become a green-skinned dwarf. What was going on?

Shi Xiaobai asked, "Why is This King able to use the Transcendental Nine Transformations?"

The Infernal Queen did not directly answer him as she said, "The Transcendence Holy Tree's heritage power had been split into hundreds of thousands of portions. They were bestowed on the D'ya clan, giving rise to the Transcendents, Infernals, and Celestials. The so-called Transcendent King's heritage is after all just one portion of the many portions of the Transcendence Holy Tree's power. It's just that his heritage power is greater in quantity than other ordinary Transcendents."

The Infernal Queen wiped away her coquettish smile and said seriously, "Darling had rejected the Transcendent King's heritage and suffered a backlash of the heritage power, causing the Holy Tree Sin Poison to erupt. But in fact, the Holy Tree Sin Poison is the cause of the illness that plagued the Infernals and Celestials."

"Back then the D'yaeans had left the confines of the Transcendence Holy Tree. The Holy Tree Sin Poison could no longer be repressed which resulted in a mutation. As for the heritage power's backlash, it is more direct and complete. Darling was likely to have been poisoned to death, but there was a tiny possibility of a mutation."

"After Darling was poisoned, his body had turned black. That was what was happening. It's just that Darling's mutation was closer to that of the mutation of the Infernals. Typically speaking, Darling's rejection of the Transcendent King's heritage only had two outcomes—death or mutation into an Infernal. But Darling ended up…cleansing the Holy Tree Sin Poison."

Shi Xiaobai asked with a frown, "So what if it's cleansed?"

The Infernal Queen said with a chuckle, "Darling was able to cleanse the poison of the Holy Tree Sin Poison but he was not able to cleanse the heritage of the Transcendence Holy Tree. Darling had only managed to cleanse the mutation determinant of the Transcendence Holy Tree's heritage. Oh, even the Transcendent King's heritage power was cleansed so Darling's strength has not been enhanced qualitatively. Darling has effectively cleared all the negative side effects of the Transcendence heritage and inherited the purest Transcendence bloodline."

Shi Xiaobai took a deep breath and said with raised brows, "Since This King has inherited the Transcendent bloodline, why is This King still in human form? Aren't the flaws in your lie too obvious?"

The Infernal Queen chuckled to herself and said, "It's only normal that Darling does not believe me. However, the Transcendental Nine Transformations has already explained everything. As for why Darling did not become a Transcendent, that's simple."

"I had just mentioned that Darling has cleansed the Holy Tree Sin Poison and as a result, Darling has removed all the negative side effects of the Transcendence heritage. Darling has inherited the purest of the Transcendence bloodline! Note, it's the Transcendence bloodline and not the Transcendent bloodline!"

Shi Xiaobai frowned and asked, "What's the difference?"

The Infernal Queen covered her mouth and said with a laugh, "The difference is huge. The Transcendence bloodline is the heritage bloodline of the Transcendence Holy Tree. As for the Transcendent bloodline, it is only one of the types of the Transcendence bloodline. Due to the mutation determinant of the Transcendence bloodline, it resulted in the mutation of Transcendents, Celestials, and Infernals."

"However, when a pure Transcendence bloodline is cleansed of the mutation determinant, the three bloodlines that lurk within would come to a balance and merge into one. Therefore, I had congratulated Darling in becoming the King of Transcendence."

"The King of Transcendence is not some Transcendent King! Instead of saying it has been fifteen thousand years, it's better to say that Darling is the only person with the purest Transcendence bloodline since the appearance of the Transcendence Holy Tree."

The Infernal Queen has praised the pure Transcendence bloodline to the skies but Shi Xiaobai could not believe her one bit for he knew that the Infernal Queen was a pathological liar. There was definitely something that she was hiding or fabricating.

However, this did not affect Shi Xiaobai's intention of trying to make her talk to gain some clues. After all, there was information of value hidden in lies. Shi Xiaobai asked once again, "Since This King has inherited the Transcendence bloodline and is not a Transcendent, Infernal or Celestial, and This King has managed to preserve his human bloodline, then, what is This King presently?"

The Infernal Queen gave a coquettish smile and said two words lightly, "Bastard mixed-blood."

If not for the context, the two words were considered a slur.

Shi Xiaobai frowned slightly. "Bastard mixed-blood?"

The Infernal Queen responded, "Darling now has four bloodlines of human, Transcendent, Infernal, and Celestial simultaneously. The three other bloodlines other than your human bloodline form the Transcendence bloodline as a whole."

"They are now in a stable fused state so Darling looks human on the surface but in fact, Darling has more than half his bloodline being of the Transcendence bloodline. Darling can use the 'Transcendental Nine Transformations' as evidence to allude to this fact."

"In fact, Darling hasn't fully grown in strength yet. In the future, when Darling becomes even stronger, even the 'Devil Transformation' that all ruling Infernal Kings have as well as the 'Divine God Descent' that all ruling Celestial Kings have can be used!"

What a bastard. Didn't that mean he had gained every benefit and been bestowed by all sorts of divine providence?

Shi Xiaobai's mind was filled with doubts. He did not dare believe the Infernal Queen's words. He was certain that she was hiding something because the Transcendence bloodline was definitely not such a simple matter. Everything could not be as 'perfect' as the Infernal Queen insinuated.

However, Shi Xiaobai heaved a sigh of relief that he still looked human on the surface. At least, he did not need to be a green-skinned dwarf to be able to use the mysterious power of the 'Transcendental Nine Transformations'. Shi Xiaobai was still slightly happy over it.

Shi Xiaobai looked up and glanced at the Infernal Queen and suddenly thought of something. He said with a frown, "Did you guess this from the beginning?"

With that said, Shi Xiaobai had already discounted the possibility himself.

If not for his poison resistance, Massage Technique of God, and Power of Taotie, together with the help of the little white dog, black and white swords, and the little sword spirit, it was absolutely impossible for him to cleanse himself of the Holy Tree Sin Poison.

And this secret was related to the Absolute Choice. It was impossible for the Infernal Queen to know of it.

Indeed, the Infernal Queen had shaken her head and said, "How could I have guessed that Darling was able to cleanse the Holy Tree Sin Poison completely. This is something that none of the three historically strongest kings could do! However, I know that Darling would definitely not die even if he rejected the Transcendent King's heritage."

Shi Xiaobai pricked his brows up and asked, "Why?"

The Infernal Queen looked at Shi Xiaobai with a deeply thoughtful look and said with a chuckle, "A secret."

It's because a goddess with divine powers was silently and submissively watching and protecting you. How could she watch you die without doing a thing?

The Infernal Queen looked up at the azure blue sky and seemed to see the purple-haired girl's azure blue eye.

The Infernal Queen sighed as her coquettish expression suddenly turned stern. It was as though she turned from a coquettish woman to a pure and innocent virgin. She looked at Shi Xiaobai and said softly, "In this land of trials, there was never a rule that could limit me. It can also be said that I am the rules."

"Shi Xiaobai, I have lied to you not only once. If you have the time, you can guess how many times I have lied to you. It will probably be quite an interesting exercise. After today's farewell, we might not meet again. Although I hate you greatly because of particular reasons, I was very happy during the ten days of playing chess with you."

The Infernal Queen's sudden change left Shi Xiaobai surprised. However, he quickly realized that the solemn and respectful Infernal Queen in front of him could be her true personality.

Shi Xiaobai sighed and asked, "Why did you keep targeting This King? And why do you hate This King?"

The Infernal Queen gave a slight smile as she pointed her fingers to her sky. Her expression was that of loneliness but her eyes looked firm.

"For freedom!"

With that said, a golden beam of light suddenly fell from the skies and enveloped Shi Xiaobai.

"Goodbye."

The Infernal Queen turned and no longer looked at Shi Xiaobai, who left with the golden light. She faced the endless snow-white plains and the boundless azure blue sky.

In an instant, Shi Xiaobai had left the Nine Revolutions Transcendental Tower!

A blob of light and a swath of darkness bloomed beside the Infernal Queen the moment Shi Xiaobai left.

"Freedom or annihilation?"

The Infernal Queen looked to the left and right with each side being burning hot light or the icy-cold darkness. She said with a wry smile, "Can I choose myself?"
