60: Shocked Emperor Nian

The slots for Level 5 and Level 4 materials have been confirmed. The remaining Level 3 materials will be used to supplement some of Qing Yan's ingredient needs, and some seeds were also selected, preparing to begin the great farming method.

Now that everything was selected, he placed the order directly. However, due to the special nature of the Crown and moonlight crystal materials, they could not be delivered that night.

The only thing that could be used immediately was the Heart of Wood Element. As soon as it arrived, Ya Bao was overjoyed.

Not only did her growth level break through to advanced, but she also comprehended a new Skill, [Suberization].

[Skill: Suberization]

[Skill Level: Low-tier Skill]

[Skill Introduction]:

As a plant body, with sufficient control over its own life, it can actively age its outer skin, causing Suberization, greatly increasing the pet beast's defensive capabilities.

(PS: Short for Wood Element Hardening)

It has to be said, Da Jie Tou is still Da Jie Tou. Without some comprehension ability, she wouldn't be able to completely suppress the two cheaters behind her.

The same material can be utilized at 120% efficiency. This is what makes a good pet beast for the people.

Yuan Wang: So, are you talking about me?

Li Wen didn't mean that. Yuan Wang's situation was normal; it was just that Ya Bao was relatively special, belonging to an easy-to-comprehend physique.

Yuan Wang's materials hadn't arrived yet, but the materials at hand could allow Qing Yan to complete another ritual. However, a hotel wasn't like home, so it wasn't convenient to set up the venue.

Therefore, Li Wen's choice was to activate the Hundred Transformations Worm space. He rubbed the jade bracelet on his wrist, wondering if he could summon a genie.

No genie, but there was an old geezer.

Hundred Transformations Worm didn't appear, but its voice directly appeared in Li Wen's mind. Li Wen didn't find it strange; direct mental communication through the Nian Faction was too normal.

"Kid, what's up?"

"Big Shot, I want to evolve your descendant, so I'd like to borrow your space for a bit."

The next second, Li Wen appeared directly inside the space.

"Oh, I thought it was something else. In the future, if you want to come in, just activate the bracelet with your soul power. Also, don't just casually touch the bracelet; that's my space attribute avatar."

At this moment, the "Big Shot" was leisurely lying down, reading the historical data Li Wen brought, treating it entirely as gossip. Of course, a truly gossipy book was mixed in.

After being lonely for a long time, everything seemed interesting. Now, its desire to even see old friends wasn't as strong.

"Little fellow, have you ever been to the Dragons Homeland?"

Because when it had just defeated the Tree Emperor, his stubbornness was quite high.

"What's so great about defeating me? You naturally restrain me. If you have the ability, go defeat a Dragon Faction guy of the same level; that's true ability."

At that time, it developed an obsession with this matter, but unfortunately, it searched for a long time and couldn't find a Dragon Faction pet beast of the same level as itself. Now, seeing it in a book, it piqued its appetite.

Li Wen hesitated for a moment upon hearing this.

"Dragons Homeland?"

In the original timeline, he seemed to have an impression of it, but he hadn't been there either.

Its name was Dragons Homeland, Long Li. It seems to have been renamed Dragons Homeland because of Dragon Faction pet beasts.

If there's an opportunity in the future, it's necessary to visit.

"Senior, I haven't been there yet. After Qing Yan evolves, I will find an opportunity to visit."

Having received the answer he wanted to hear, Hundred Transformations Worm continued the conversation, following Li Wen's topic.

"Then what attribute do you plan to evolve this excellent junior into?"

"This time, I plan to complete its Thunder attribute evolution, so I might still need your help, Senior."

The words were heard very clearly this time, but he didn't question it much, thinking it might have failed before.

Instead, he said very politely, "You don't have to keep calling me Senior. I'm not like that stinky tree; I have my own name. I'm called 'Bainian'."

"If you must call me something, 'Mind Emperor' will do."

"I can help with this, but I have a condition..."

Li Wen thought to himself, if the request was to go to the Dragons Homeland, he would have to temporarily switch to a different evolution plan. After all, it was the cradle of Dragon Faction pet beasts, such an important place, and he didn't have the qualifications to enter it casually right now.

"You need to find me some things to pass the time, just your usual forms of entertainment, like in that book... that pet beast battle royale."

Li Wen: ???

Ah, I remember now, my pet beast version of "Naraka: Bladepoint."

It adopted a battle royale mechanism, with various pet beast Skills, normal attacks, energy attacks, and a rock-paper-scissors-like game mode for counter-attacks. If it's not Naraka, then what is it?

Although Li Wen really wanted to say that playing everything would only harm him, he still agreed for Qing Yan's fourth ritual.

Seeing Li Wen agree, Mind Emperor immediately changed his form. "Thunderous Stink Bug" was once a companion of Mind Emperor. Its whiskers were the characteristic part of the dragon whiskers on the Harvest Worm.

It was also the main source of Thunder attribute energy. So, under Mind Emperor's precise control, only two whiskers appeared, looking extremely grotesque.

But the effect was not diminished. Soon, a lightning field appeared in the secret realm. Mind Emperor even thoughtfully controlled the intensity to Qing Yan's limit.

After Qing Yan entered the field, it was quite an experience. Although there was no life danger, the sensation was not pleasant.

[Ritual in progress...]

[03:27:52]

Li Wen didn't waste this time either. He directly had Yuan Wang begin Catalysis on the seeds. Besides some spirit condensing grass seeds, there was also the previously grown Starfruit tree.

Three hours later, all of them had been consumed, providing a significant boost to a vitality pet beast like Ya Bao. The first one directly increased her Energy Value by 200.

Although the second one had its effect halved, such an effect was already terrifying.

Since Yuan Wang was an elemental spirit, the effect was much weaker, only increasing by about 50.

As for Mind Emperor, this thing was completely useless to him; he was just greedy, a big greedy old geezer.

"Do you think it will succeed?"

Mind Emperor couldn't help but feel a little anticipation for the junior's transformation.

"Success is guaranteed; I'm just not sure what kind of Skill it will have."

[Ritual complete]

He looked at the panel, and it was a Skill Li Wen hadn't expected.

[Skill: Path of Thunder]

[Skill Level: High-tier Skill]

[Skill Type: Passive Skill]

[Skill Introduction]:

Forms a Path of Thunder along the pet beast's movement and the path of the [Insect Silk] Skill. Opposing pet beasts approaching will trigger it and take lightning damage.

It wasn't the [Thunder Armor] Li Wen had anticipated, perhaps because Mind Emperor's energy was too advanced, but it didn't matter at all, as it had an even more outrageous Skill effect.

Li Wen then recalled Qing Yan, and Mind Emperor was stunned, saying,

"It's evolved?"

"Yes!"

"But, its form hasn't changed at all!"

"That's right, I never said it only evolves once."

"You mean it can evolve many times?"

"Thanks to you, Mind Emperor, I was able to do it."

Mind Emperor: ???

At this moment, Mind Emperor felt his worldview as an insect collapsing a bit.
