In the cruel and vast world of Tianxuan, strength reigned supreme. Bloodlines dictated one's destiny. Those born with divine veins soared through the skies, while the talentless were crushed beneath their feet.
Lin Fan was one of the crushed.
Orphaned at birth, his parents were rumored to have died under mysterious circumstances. Raised in the slums of Qingyang City, Lin Fan had no family, no power, and no backing. He trained with broken swords and rusty manuals thrown away by rich clans, hoping to one day escape the shadow of mediocrity.
But fate had other plans.
One stormy night, as Lin Fan meditated alone on a desolate cliff, the heavens changed.
BOOM!!!
The sky split open. Crimson lightning tore through the clouds like an angry dragon. It didn't strike a peak or a mountain—it struck him.
His body convulsed. Pain surged through his veins like fire. But in the midst of the agony, a voice echoed in his mind.
> "Stealing Divine System Activated..."
"Scan complete... No divine bloodline detected. Binding host: Lin Fan."
"Unlocking skill: [Bloodline Theft - Dragon Soul Tier]."
As the red lightning wrapped around him like chains, a golden illusion appeared in the sky—a mighty Crimson Sky Dragon roaring in rage.
Lin Fan's eyes glowed red. His hand moved on its own. He reached toward the illusion—and stole its bloodline.
> "Congratulations. You have stolen: [Crimson Sky Dragon Bloodline]."
His bones cracked. His meridians surged. His heart beat like thunder.
The weak boy who once couldn't even cultivate had just stolen the legacy of a dragon.
