Just when Wyatt believed his troubles were over, the core of the celestial array formation shone brilliantly with a golden light, startling him. Alerted, he instantly tried to sense the situation through the shared link between him and the core spirit. However, to his dismay, he felt a powerful surge within the link between hisʼs primordial calamity soul gem and his new primordial calamity daughter gem, the celestial array formation core spirit.

This was the first time he had experienced such a phenomenon and was unsure how to respond. Instinctively, he mobilized all his primordial energy into the Hive Spirit and the protective shell of the world calamity tree seed to shield him from any harm that might come from the power surge within their shared link. After all, aside from his spiritual channel, the primordial calamity soul/daughter gem link had direct access into his mutated ego gem.

Back when he had fought the Circleʼs Mike Brown in Sun Blossom City, Mike had used the Myriad Devilʼs Hex on Ji Feng, Wyattʼs martyred calamity daughter gem. The curse had extended to him through the calamity soul/daughter gem link. Although Annaʼs dummy ring resisted the curse on his behalf, it was notable that the curse could spread through the link between the calamity soul gem and calamity daughter gem. Therefore, when he felt great power surge within the link between him and the core spirit, Wyatt couldnʼt help but be on guard since he had no idea what this power entailed. After fortifying his defenses, he used his primordial soul pupils to study the nature of this great power. To his surprise, it appeared to be a type of innate power- specifically, the innate power of the celestial array formation coreʼs spirit.

Not gleaning much about the potential of this innate power, Wyatt used his unique eyes to further peer through the golden light and into the celestial array formation core, hoping to locate its spirit and gain an understanding of its innate power. However, before he could make sense of it, the great power launched itself into his mutated ego gem through the calamity soul/daughter gem link.

To Wyattʼs dismay, neither the Hive Spirit nor the world calamity tree seedʼs protective shell around his mutated ego gem could hinder, let alone stop, the great power. He had never felt more betrayed by his own prowess. Just as he began to process this, he felt a sudden empowerment similar to the sensation of his recent baptism.

Realizing that the great power posed no threat but was, in fact, empowering him, he understood why his Hive Spirit and the world calamity tree seedʼs protective shell had allowed it through. It seemed his body had a better sense of judgment than he did. However, Wyatt was still puzzled as to why he had received a portion of the celestial core spiritʼs innate power-something unprecedented, as none of his calamity daughter gems had ever shared their power with him before. As he pondered this strange event, his grimoire emitted a series of notifications:

[You are being baptized by the ʼUnnamedʼ primordial calamity daughter gemʼs innate celestial power.]

[Your synchronicity rate has increased.

175% >>> 200%]

[You have awakened celestial skill: Celestial Voice.]

[You have awakened celestial skill: Celestial Vision.]

[Your cursed primordial bloodline has deemed the ʼUnnamedʼ primordial calamity daughter gem worthy to inherit it.]

[Your ʼUnnamedʼ primordial calamity daughter gem has inherited your cursed primordial bloodline.

Bloodline Purity: 97%]

[Your ʼUnnamedʼ primordial calamity daughter gemʼs authority tier has increased. Partner-Tier >>> Bloodkin-Tier.]

[Skill Name: Bloodkin-Tier Primordial Calamity Daughter Gem

Effect:

i) Primordial calamity daughter gems with Bloodkin-Tier authority are bound to the primordial calamity soul gem by the cursed primordial bloodline.

ii) Primordial calamity daughter gems with Bloodkin-Tier authority have greater autonomy, allowing them to think independently and, at their discretion, ignore commands. However, they cannot defy orders issued through the cursed primordial bloodline.

iii) Bloodkin-Tier authority grants the daughter gem limited control over other daughter gems with lower authority, enabling them to lead.

iv) The purity of the cursed primordial bloodline determines the hierarchy among Bloodkin-Tier daughter gems.

Note:

i) The cursed primordial bloodline can only be inherited by daughter gems deemed worthy by the bloodline.

ii) Any primordial calamity daughter gem sharing the cursed primordial bloodline with the soul gem is automatically promoted to Bloodkin-Tier.

iii) Bloodkin-Tier daughter gems possess advanced intelligence and problem-solving abilities, distinguishing them from lower-tier daughter gems.]

Reading the notifications from his grimoire, Wyatt was stunned. He knew little about the cursed primordial bloodline other than that he had gained cursed bloodline while comprehending his second blood rule, the meaning of ʼBlood Curse!

Seeing the cursed primordial bloodline act autonomously and select its inheritors without his input brought a troubled frown to Wyattʼs face. Just when he felt a sense of relief, the development blindsided him, catching him off guard.

Most troubling was the addition of a new authority tier-Bloodkin-for his primordial calamity daughter gems. This authority level granted Bloodkin-Tier daughter gems the freedom to think independently and the discretion to reject his orders unless they were issued through the cursed primordial bloodline.

While this advancement made the Bloodkin-Tier daughter gems more capable than their lower-tier counterparts, Wyatt questioned whether the cost of relinquishing absolute control was worth it. Only by observing the extent of the Bloodkin-Tier daughter gemsʼ abilities in comparison to the lower-tier gems would he be able to determine if this trade-off was worthwhile.

Yet, even if he could come to terms with this change, Wyatt found it disconcerting that the cursed primordial bloodline would autonomously decide which daughter gems were worthy of inheriting it. He strongly felt that he should be the one to decide which of his daughter gems would inherit his bloodline and be promoted to Bloodkin-Tier. Realizing that he had no control over this, Wyatt shifted his focus to the next matter at hand: his unexpected acquisition of part of the celestial array formation core spiritʼs innate power.
