"What do you need in exchange for the information about the Great Mother?" Eve spoke with a solemn voice as she asked that question.
Zatiel nodded as he saw that the woman understood her position.
"The way you develop your bloodline is different from other life forms. It is unique, and one could say it is even more impressive than Neo-Demon's Bloodline Heart. Of course, I also know it is incredibly complicated. The amount of talent and knowledge regarding the genetic matrix one needs to take that path is something maybe only ten life forms in the entire Prima Universe have."
Eve's eyes widened when she heard that. Everybody knew about her path involving bloodlines, but the term genetic matrix and the uniqueness Zatiel mentioned was something only she and the Magus Primarch knew.
Zatiel continued speaking as if he had not noticed the woman's shock.
"When a life form with an Emperor Bloodline enters Rank 7, their bloodline will also improve due to the energies and forces that will nurture their soul and body. However, that bloodline will be at most an extremely weak Fourth Order Law Bloodline, and the help it could provide to someone's cultivation or battle power is meager."
Although the term Four Order Law Bloodline was created by Zatiel and until a few hundred years ago only used by the Neo-Demon Race, it had already spread across the entire Prima Universe after the rise of Legacy.
Many races did not like Law Bloodline Ranking's absurd requirements, making even Dawn Titan and Archangel Bloodline only Second Order. Still, they all had to accept that only those at the level of Primordial Bloodline or Rebirth Eclipse Bloodline were fit to be considered First Order Law Bloodlines.
Eve had already studied the Law Bloodline Ranking, and as she heard Zatiel's words, a flash of light crossed her eyes as she gained an idea of what the Neo-Demon was after. Yet, she kept silent and continued listening attentively.
"Archangels and Dawn Titans have Peak Second-Order Law Bloodlines, but even when they rise to Rank 9, their bloodline can not reach the First Order. At most, they can get near that level."
Zatiel could see that after all he said, Eve had already figured out what he was after, but she still kept silent as she wanted to hear it.
"Due to the unique way you have created and developed your bloodline, you will form a First Order Law Bloodline if you enter Rank 9 after combining the Evolution and Atavism Paths principles. I want it."
Eve could not help but sigh as she heard that since it meant that the Neo-Demon had already seen her secrets. The Holy mother began to remember when she was only a weak Rank 0 life form that had just embarked on her cultivation.
Her talent was meager, and just entering Rank 1 would have been a miracle, but then she obtained a lucky chance in the form of a King Bloodline belonging to a Beholder.
The Beholders were a kind of Demon known for their ocular powers, and their Bloodline Ancestor was no other than the Great Mother.
A King Bloodline was incredibly useful for the young and weak Eve, but unlike what everybody else in her position would have done, she did not fuse the bloodline in her body. She instead began to study it to learn its secrets.
The young Eve's heart and soul burned with the desire to grow her power and knowledge, and she could not accept that her path would be shackled. So, she took a different route, and after years of study, she unlocked some of the mysteries in the King Bloodline.
While what she deciphered was just a drop of water in an ocean, it generated a fundamental change in Eve's destiny. Using arcane magic, she used the information obtained from the King Bloodline to alter her genetic matrix and obtained an artificial bloodline.
Eve's first bloodline was very weak and would only help her reach Rank 1, but the true might of this bloodline was not its power but its potential.
As Eve continued her investigations in the King Bloodline, she unlocked more and more of its mysteries until her artificial bloodline became as powerful as the original. However, that was hardly enough for the woman.
She began to roam the universe, searching for new bloodlines and more knowledge. Every time she found something helpful, she would study it to figure out its quintessence and then carefully implanted it into her genetic matrix.
Her path was dangerous as a single mistake could lead to a catastrophic disaster. There was also a limit to how much her genetic matrix could endure, but her determination had paid up.
After countless years of study and hard work, she became one of the mightiest entities of the Magi World and someone whose destiny had already opened a gate into the Eternal Detachment Rank.
Eve's bloodline comprised eight unique genetic codes. Three focused on the body, three on the energy, and two on the soul.
There was no doubt in Eve's mind that if she were able to modify her genetic matrix and implant a new genetic code for her soul, her destiny would surpass that of Primarchs.
Unfortunately, that was incredibly hard, and the Holy Mother had almost thought it was impossible until she learned about the Great Mother. If he could get access to that Archdemon, her dreams may come true.
A path to the Great Mother was in front of her, and she only needed to accept Zatiel's request. Due to the uniqueness of her bloodline, she could indeed hand over the First Order Law Bloodline's core to the Neo-Demon, but its value was incredible.
Zatiel noticed the reluctance in the woman's face and simply shook his head.
"Without me, you will never get to the Great Mother, which means you will never obtain a First Order Law Bloodline, so what is the point of saying no?"
Eve understood that the Neo-Demon was right, so she nodded.
Zatiel waved his hand, making a second stream of information enter Eve's Dream Avatar.
"In there is the information I have about the Great Mother, and there are also coordinates into her abode, right outside the zone where she slumbers. Use your most powerful World Gate, and you should be able to teleport directly into it."
