Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

”CHIRP!!!”

The little one, who had been quiet just a second ago, suddenly let out an extremely piercing, agonizing shriek.

Its tiny body began to tremble violently. The power of the essence blood attached to the Star-Pattern Silk was forcefully cutting into its flesh and branding deep into its bloodline in an overwhelmingly domineering manner.

For a newborn chick whose soul had not yet fully stabilized, this kind of bloodline contract that crossed tiers was nothing less than a spiritual death by a thousand cuts.

The little one’s golden pupils quickly became flooded with chaotic bloodshot streaks. Its originally dependent gaze toward Su Ming began to be replaced by a primal madness and agony. Its claws frantically scratched at the eggshell beneath it, even trying to peck at the Star-Pattern Silk wrapped around its body.

”Damn it, its soul can’t withstand the law backlash contained within the essence blood!”

Su Ming’s heart jolted violently. Through the divine sense bridge, he could clearly feel that the extremely faint spark of its original soul fire within the little one’s Consciousness Sea was flickering wildly in a gale, on the verge of being extinguished at any moment.

His rational mind told him that cutting the contract now might still save its life, though this exotic beast would forever be reduced to an ordinary magical bird. But if he forcefully continued, it would most likely have its soul scattered to the winds on the spot.

Su Ming’s gaze instantly turned icy cold. His fingers curled slightly, ready to forcibly sever the divine sense bridge connecting them.

”Don’t move! If you cut the contract, it’s as good as dead!”At this critical moment, the ethereal blue soul body hovering in mid-air instantly expanded by a circle. Holding nothing back, Lin Yu rapidly formed an extremely strange hand seal before his chest.

A terrifying divine sense that belonged to the peak Ghost General level, and even faintly touched upon a higher realm, poured out of him without any reservation.

This divine sense did not attack. Instead, it transformed into an invisible giant hand that roughly yet precisely plunged into the little one’s nearly shattered Consciousness Sea.

Lin Yu’s divine sense acted like countless resilient blue threads, tightly wrapping, encasing, and securing the wildly flickering soul fire. No matter how the backlash power of the blood contract raged within the Consciousness Sea, Lin Yu’s divine sense barrier remained firmly unmoved.

”Hang in there for me!” Lin Yu gritted his teeth. The edges of his soul body even rippled slightly due to the excessive output of divine sense.

Under Lin Yu’s relentless protection of his own origin, the madness gradually receded from the little one’s eyes. Its piercing shrieks turned into weak, sorrowful whimpers.

The crimson Star-Pattern Silk wrapped around its body finally broke through the last obstacle and completely merged into its flesh. An extremely faint red pattern flickered across its neck and then vanished beneath the black fuzz.

Su Ming only felt a muffled roar within his Consciousness Sea.

The tense feeling of possibly snapping at any moment vanished. In its place was an absolute sense of control, as if a new organ had been added to his body.

He could feel every beat of its heart, every contraction of the muscles beneath its wings, and even clearly sense the only thought left in its mind at that moment.

Hunger.

The master recognition was complete.

The bloodline contract had just stabilized when Su Ming let out a long breath of turbid air, relaxing his tense back. He was about to withdraw the spiritual energy sustaining the Spirit-Communion Jade Marrow when he noticed that the white light above his head had not dissipated. Instead, it was being covered by an even deeper, ethereal blue light.

Lin Yu’s divine sense, which had probed into the little one’s Consciousness Sea, showed no intention of pulling back.

”Master?” Su Ming was stunned.

”Strike while the iron is hot!” Lin Yu snorted coldly. His solid soul body hovered in mid-air as his ten fingers flipped like phantoms at lightning speed. ”This little thing’s Consciousness Sea has just been reshaped by the blood contract. Right now, its plasticity is at its peak, and its rejection of external laws is at its weakest. If we don’t instill some ’discipline’ now, once its origin stabilizes, it’ll be too late to make any cuts!”

Before his words faded, the ethereal blue soul power at Lin Yu’s fingertips had already condensed to a physical level.

Without any pause, his divine sense surged madly, forcibly outlining three extremely complex ancient seal scripts in the void that exuded the rhythm of ancient heavenly law.

Edge.

Concealment.

Obliterate.

The moment these three characters took form, the air within the cave dwelling seemed to be drained dry. A sharpness capable of cutting through space, a concealment that seemed able to devour even light, and a wild, destructive aura of a last-ditch gambit all erupted simultaneously within this confined space.

”Go!”

Lin Yu pointed his fingers like a sword and jabbed fiercely at the little black chick still trembling within the eggshell.

The three ancient seal scripts connected end to end, turning into a stream of light that, with no obstruction, followed the divine sense channel Lin Yu had laid down and smashed directly into the deepest part of the little one’s newly stabilized Consciousness Sea.

”CHIRP—!”

The little one’s black fuzz instantly bristled up, standing like countless fine steel needles. Its pure golden pupils contracted violently, and its body convulsed frantically amidst the shattered eggshell fragments like an electric shock.

But this time, there were no shrieks or signs of bloodline collapse.

These three runes, representing the pinnacle law of assassination, were forcibly branded onto its most primal soul fragments under Lin Yu’s almost tyrannical soul power suppression, becoming an inseparable part of its life’s law.

After a moment, the convulsions stopped.

The little one wobbled as it steadied itself. It shook its tiny head, and its golden pupils returned to clarity. But in the blink of its eyes, Su Ming keenly caught a glimpse of three faint rune glows flickering alternately in the depths of its pupils, adding a hint of spine-chilling intelligence and coldness to what had originally been a purely instinctual gaze.

Lin Yu let out a long breath and slowly withdrew his hands.

The invisible giant hand that had probed into the Consciousness Sea dissipated into nothing. Su Ming noticed that the edges of his master’s soul body, which had been as solid and white as fine jade, were now somewhat translucent and dim. Clearly, this series of extreme operations had consumed a massive amount of his soul power.

”It’s done.” Lin Yu’s form drifted downward and sat cross-legged on the meditation cushion in mid-air. His tone carried undisguised exhaustion, but more than that, it held the excitement of having successfully completed a mad experiment. ”These three brands will gradually merge into its bloodline instincts as it grows. The ’Edge’ principle enhances its offensive ceiling, the ’Concealment’ principle pairs with its natural aura-hiding talent, and the ’Obliterate’ principle is a trump card left for when it needs to fight for its life. As long as it doesn’t die young, this world will definitely have one more ghost that gives everyone a headache.”
