Chapter 2884 Snake Eyes and Six Flowers Curse!
Chapter 2884 Snake Eyes and Six Flowers Curse!
In order to prove to Lin Yuan that he had been doing his best all along, Fan Lou had already achieved results long ago. However, since Lin Yuan did not take the initiative to bring it up, Fan Lou was afraid that initiating the conversation himself might raise suspicions of seeking recognition from Lin Yuan. Therefore, Fan Lou did not do so.
Now that Lin Yuan had brought it up himself, Fan Lou could finally happily talk about his results. "Master, it was not convenient for me to involve myself when I was first placed in an important position by Feng Qing because it would have some degree of association with me.
"This made me change my target from looking for people who were somewhat related to me and possessed a certain level of strength, and instead developed relationships with those who were completely unfamiliar to me and less powerful than me, and used them.
"These people have no connection with me, whether openly or secretly. Hence, anything they do will not affect me. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Among them, there are a few people whom I can recommend through Feng Qing, allowing them to enter the Bloodians' sight. In the end, no matter what they did, the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves would be the main carrier of responsibility.
"Because of my relationship with the Dark Pufferfish, I'm very useful to the Bloodians now. They won't regard me as one of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves anymore. Besides, I'm only a distant relative of the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. The origin of my bloodline has nothing to do with them."
Fan Lou had already known Lin Yuan's goal from the moment he assigned him the task, especially since Lin Yuan had deliberately emphasized that he wanted to ensure that it had nothing to do with him.
However, although Fan Lou could clear himself, he had just obtained power and escaped from the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. In addition, since this matter needed to be coordinated with the Bloodians, Fan Lou could only use the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves as a scapegoat.
Lin Yuan nodded to himself. Fan Lou had completed this mission much better than Lin Yuan had expected. Lin Yuan had not expected Fan Lou to be able to use the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves as a tool when he had just escaped. Lin Yuan greatly admired Fan Lou's intelligence.
"Since you're the one who completed the mission, I'll entrust you to make the future arrangements. Fan Lou, if you can keep up your intelligence, I will promote you to a member of Honor Absent Palace."
Lin Yuan cut off the connection with Fan Lou, leaving Fan Lou staring blankly at the crystal jade.
Lin Yuan's promise was something that Fan Lou did not even dare to hope for. If one wanted to become a member of the Honor Absent Parliament, it was essential to have a species as their backing.
Lin Yuan's promise was equivalent to agreeing to Fan Lou's request, allowing him to breed his own bloodline later. If he were to become a member of the Honor Absent Parliament, Fan Lou would be considered a top figure in the entire East Universe of the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
This status was different from the status brought by strength, but it was more prominent because of Honor Absent Palace. Even those Holy Spirit experts would never dare to make a move on a World Emperor/Divine Kingdom expert.
Even if they didn't pose a threat to the life of the Honor Absent Parliament members and only infringed upon their dignity and authority, the latter could still report the issue to Honor Absent Palace. The Honor Absent Palace would have a specialized department to handle such matters.
If they were to kill the members of Honor Absent Parliament and threaten their lives and safety, their entire species involved would be held accountable by Honor Absent Palace.
Many factions on the Species Ranking had met their demise because they killed a member of Honor Absent Palace and defied their judges.
Fan Lou knew very well that if Lin Yuan really promoted him to a member of the Honor Absent Parliament, it would only be the beginning.
Winter also acknowledged Fan Lou's ability. Fan Lou was extremely weak in both strength and bloodline, yet he had completely relied on his intelligence and capability to change his fate.
In the beginning, Lin Yuan had chosen to take Fan Lou under his wing because he had no other choice. Now that Lin Yuan had various options, he still chose to entrust Fan Lou with an important position because Fan Lou earned it with his own efforts.
Lin Yuan had originally planned to stop traveling after leaving Treasure City and head straight to the Scarlet Territory where the Bloodians were to meet Fan Lou.
Fan Lou's report did not affect Lin Yuan's plan at all. Lin Yuan knew very well that the Star Pirate Alliance would not pose a threat to Treasure City. Liu Chen and Liu Yao alone possessed the ability to destroy the Star Pirate Alliance.
Even if there was no void passageway now and the various factions in Treasure City could request help, the storm would not subside in two days. Firstly, as long as the Star Pirate Alliance did not invade Treasure City on a large scale, Liu Chen and Liu Yao would launch an attack.
When the various factions in Treasure City saw the light of victory, they would not think of resisting with all their might. Instead, they would try their best to ensure that the strength of their species didn't diminish in the battle. Liu Chen and Liu Yao had already verified this for Lin Yuan.
Secondly, some factions in Treasure City had hidden agendas through this storm. Putting others aside, Li Feng, the City Lord of Treasure City, had a similar plan.
During these two days, Lin Yuan could properly nurture Morbius' new spirit-locked fey.
…
When Lin Yuan entered the Spirit Lock spatial zone, Begin Lady immediately reported to him, "Lin Yuan, the dozen or so people whose lives you spared and brought into the Spirit Lock spatial zone are quite well-behaved. They have been arranged to work in the cat garden according to your instructions. I've asked Celestial Sight to watch over them.
"My bloodline hasn't improved much over the years, but my Celestial Sight bloodline is already showing signs of becoming a medial-class faerie. I estimate that the metamorphosis will take less than half a year!
"The Spirit Lock spatial zone is not suitable for evolving faeries. Lin Yuan, you have to release Celestial Sight from the Spirit Lock spatial zone!"
When she explained the situation to Lin Yuan, Begin Lady was filled with gratitude. As a faerie herself, Begin Lady was very well aware of how difficult it was to evolve a faerie's bloodline. The Celestial Sight bloodline could improve so quickly because Lin Yuan had nourished it through the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Otherwise, Celestial Sight, this newborn faerie, would not be able to successfully transform its bloodline within 20 years. Even if it took thousands of years, it would be very difficult to obtain the corresponding opportunity.
The evolution of faeries required pure spirit qi and elemental energy. The Spirit Lock spatial zone could be said to be a paradise for faeries.
During this period, Lin Yuan's attention was not on Celestial Sight. Celestial Sight and Begin Lady had stayed in the Spirit Lock spatial zone for decades to help take care of it.
Lin Yuan was extremely happy to hear that the Celestial Sight's bloodline was about to undergo transformation.
"Begin Lady, how's your bloodline progressing?"
Begin Lady smiled and shook her head. She was not obsessed with improving her strength. Different faeries had different characteristics. As a faerie with dual attributes, it was extremely difficult for the Begin Lady to level up.
Not only that, but the Begin Lady's bloodline also possessed a special breeding ability. This was also the key to the Begin Lady being able to bestow her bloodline to other lifeforms and aid them in their transformation. It was precisely because of the uniqueness of her bloodline that Begin Lady encountered many barriers in increasing her strength.
"Lin Yuan, you also know that my bloodline is rather special. I've never felt any signs of my bloodline transforming. My bloodline might not be able to transform for a long time."
Begin Lady was a little melancholic and sighed, "I initially believed that I could enhance my bloodline, but to my surprise, the more I strengthened myself, the more I realized the limitations of my abilities."
Begin Lady's words were filled with helplessness.
Lin Yuan now had a much clearer understanding of the faeries than before.
Spring had explained to Lin Yuan about faeries before. They could be said to be nature's darlings. The faeries evolved from natural phenomena such as mountains and rivers and were born with the will of heaven and earth. They possessed the ability to fuse with heaven and earth. However, to a certain extent, this talent had also become a shackle for the faeries, making it difficult for them to enhance their bloodline.
It was extremely difficult for middle-level faeries to evolve to higher-level faeries, especially for those with bloodlines that were even more difficult to evolve than ordinary faeries.
If he were still in the main world, Lin Yuan would not have made any promises to Begin Lady. However, he had already arrived at the Sky Beyond the Clouds and had undergone too many innovations.
Many of the resources that Lin Yuan had obtained from Fortune Treasure Palace were effective on the Begin Lady, but what she needed the most now was the spirit spring. The spiritual spring in the Sky Beyond the Clouds was much more advanced than the spiritual spring in the main world.
The spirit spring was a foundation-level resource in the main world, and it was the same in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Once the spirit spring was extracted from the ground, it would have an indelible effect on an area. As such, Lin Yuan did not choose to take the spring with him before he left the main world.
The factions in the Sky Beyond the Clouds that possessed spirit springs would also firmly control them to prevent them from flowing out. The spirit spring was a treasure for plant-type lifeforms, and it held the same significance for water-type lifeforms. However, this did not deter Lin Yuan from collecting the spirit springs.
"Begin, Lady, don't be so pessimistic. Even if you continue staying in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, it's only a matter of time before your bloodline evolves. The resources in the Spirit Lock spatial zone are sufficient to aid in your gradual transformation!"
"Apart from spirit qi and various types of elemental energy, what you need most is the nourishment of the spirit springs. You once told me that your main body, the Gaea Begin River, was formed from the spirit spring over tens of millions of years."
"There are spirit springs in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. I'll help you collect those spirit springs. Higher faeries won't be beyond your reach."
Begin Lady was slightly stunned when she heard this, but a gentle smile soon appeared on her face. Her eyes were filled with gratitude. Ever since she gained consciousness, she had been nurturing other lifeforms and helping them undergo metamorphosis. She would even distribute her bloodline to those with less innate talent. Now that her identity as Lin Yuan's nurturer had changed, it felt good to have someone to rely on!
Lin Yuan chatted with Begin Lady for a while before taking out the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake from his spatial equipment. Lin Yuan chose not to place it in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
The environment of the Spirit Lock spatial zone was excessively suitable for any lifeforms that primarily relied on spirit qi as their main source of energy. It would not take long for these lifeforms to break through their grades in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Lin Yuan preferred to spirit-lock Bronze feys. A Bronze spirit-locked fey could guarantee that the fey would evolve to Legend at Bronze, but other spirit-locked feys could not guarantee this. If this could not be guaranteed, it would affect Morbius' future potential. Lin Yuan did not want to take such a risk.
If the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake had not been a Bronze fey when it was discovered in Fortune Treasure Palace, Lin Yuan would have decisively given up on it, no matter how much potential it had.
Although the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake was a Bronze fey, snake-species feys had extraordinary intelligence.
As soon as the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake was summoned, it greedily absorbed the surrounding spirit qi and even treated Lin Yuan as a competitor. It was worried that Lin Yuan would share the spirit qi in the environment with it.
Lin Yuan could not help but smile when he saw the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's protective behavior. It seemed that the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake had yet to comprehend the situation.
Lin Yuan could use Morbius' exclusive skill to lock other feys without needing the feys' approval.
Even if the Bronze Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake had some intelligence, it could not deal with such complicated emotions.
Before Lin Yuan used True Data on the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake, he had carefully investigated it.
[Fey Name]: Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake
[Fey Species]: Snake Pupils/Illusion Snake
[Fey Grade]: Bronze (10/10)
[Fey Type]: Wood/Soul
[Fey Quality]: Legend
Abilities:
[Snake Eyes]: Controls other snake-species feys through its eyes. When its soul energy is sufficient to suppress other snake-species feys, it can induce them to contract or sacrifice it (Contract allows control over the snake-type lifeforms. As long as the targeted snake-type lifeforms' spiritual power does not exceed its own, they will not escape its control. When sacrificing the targeted snake-type lifeforms, it can obtain energy from their bodies and use their flesh to strengthen its own physical fitness).
[Snake Coiling Defense]: Coils its body together, allowing the entire snake body to become one. When attacked, it can shrink its body and increase its defense to the greatest extent.
Exclusive Skill:
[Six Flowers Curse]: Through the Six Flowers Curse in the eye, whenever the target's body is invaded by poison related to the target, a snake flower will grow from the wound. When the number of snake flowers reaches six, the target's bloodline will be forcibly changed, turning the target into a sub-snake.
This was not the first time Lin Yuan had checked the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's data. The last time he had done so, he had not been as serious as he was now.
Even so, Lin Yuan had decided to spirit-lock the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake. Now that he saw how powerful it was, he trembled in fear!
