85: In the Name of the King
At this moment, Yuan Wang recalled what his master had once said to it.
“You are fully capable of transforming into any form during this crucial ceremony.”
Yuan Wang couldn’t help but murmur deep in its heart, “However, the master did not tell me what form I should take, even though everything happening before my eyes was meticulously planned and arranged by him.”
Just then, as if discerning Yuan Wang’s inner hesitation and confusion, Li Wen, who was within the venue, suddenly spoke, his voice clearly reaching Yuan Wang’s ears.
“Just become the way you truly desire to be deep down.”
Upon hearing these words, Yuan Wang fell into deep contemplation: “Become the way I truly wish to be? But if so, what kind of existence do I ultimately wish to be? It seems even I have never seriously considered this question.”
Unexpectedly, at such a critical and urgent juncture, Yuan Wang, without any warning, fell into a long and profound state of meditation.
“King!”
“King!”
“King!”
The shouts, rising and falling, echoed through the sky; it turned out that the two great generals, who had joined this huge group out of submission to force, were now, like everyone else, wholeheartedly shouting Yuan Wang’s name.
This was because Yuan Wang had truly fulfilled and taken on the responsibilities and mission of a “King.”
Listening to the deafening and passionate cheers from the Slime Clan all around, honestly, Yuan Wang had never imagined that it would receive such revered treatment.
Yes, after a long period of exploration and contemplation, Yuan Wang finally found the answer that had been hidden deep in its heart—its original intention was to ascend to the supreme throne and become a King admired by all!
Once this thought was confirmed, it burned like a raging fire, growing hotter and more steadfast in its heart.
As Yuan Wang’s inner path became clear, this grand and awe-inspiring evolution ceremony truly began.
Countless Slimes loudly shouted their faith and expectations for Yuan Wang; those passionate slogans seemed to possess infinite power, converging continuously from all directions and finally gathering around Yuan Wang.
These voices intertwined with the surrounding vast and majestic energy, together weaving a giant light cocoon as dazzling as the sun, tightly enveloping Yuan Wang at its center.
Although Yuan Wang had already entered the process of evolution, every member of the Slime Clan showed no sign of stopping; they continued to shout with full enthusiasm, using their most sincere emotions and loudest voices to cheer on Yuan Wang, who was undergoing its transformation.
Because they deeply knew that for every bit of strength Yuan Wang gained, the entire clan would become stronger; moreover, Yuan Wang’s unique and extraordinary personal charm had already deeply captivated their hearts.
However, what was surprising was that perhaps due to this extraordinary and lofty prestige, Yuan Wang’s evolution time this time seemed much longer than any previous one.
The constantly flickering numbers on the panel showed the remaining time for evolution:
【Evolving...】
【Evolution Time】
【15:28:56】
Such a long passage of time greatly exceeded Li Wen’s expectations. However, having the experience of Ya Bao’s evolution as a “precedent” before, he knew that he absolutely could not be careless at this time, nor did he dare to leave this place even half a step.
Helplessly, Li Wen could only choose to wait patiently in this mysterious realm.
He was fully focused, not daring to be negligent in the slightest, always maintaining a state of high tension.
His position was right next to the star peach tree, and his hands were tightly holding two ripe star peaches, just in case any unexpected emergency occurred, so he could replenish necessary nutrition and Energy Value in time to cope.
Fortunately, things did not develop as complicatedly as imagined.
Although the lost crown itself had a relatively high growth level, its performance currently seemed to be within the normal range.
Even if there were some special aspects, Li Wen’s Creation Evolution Skill only needed to play a simple auxiliary role to successfully complete its absorption process, without the need to risk forcibly activating a super-overload state that would put immense pressure on himself.
Finally, after some waiting, everything transitioned smoothly. The two star peaches that Li Wen had held in his hands for emergencies became his dog’s treat.

【trait ①: Growth of All Things】:
Possesses the ability to Catalysis the Growth of all things. For all life forms, its Growth can be enhanced through its own energy.
【trait ②: Imperial Power】:
Divine right of kings. Only a monarch whose faith is recognized is qualified to be called an emperor. This pet has obtained the recognition of its own faith, possesses absolute imperial power within the Slime Clan, and all Skill effects are Multiplied.
【Taught Skills】: Low-level Skills: ① Roll (Mastery +1)
Intermediate Skills: ① Growth (Proficiency +1)
【Racial Skills】: Primary Skills ①: Elementalization (Mastery +1) ② Leaders Aura (Grandmaster)
Intermediate Skills: ① Multiplication (Proficiency +1) ② Telekinesis (Beginner) ③ Covering Body (Beginner)

Three new Skills were added:
【Skill: Telekinesis】
...【Skill: Covering Body】
【Skill Level: Intermediate Skill】
【Skill Type: Passive Skill】
【Skill Description】:
Because the pet’s energy and spirit can be transmitted or applied to every corner of its body, its size can affect the intensity of all Skill usages.
【Skill: Imperial Might】
【Skill Level: High-level Skill】
【Skill Type: Active Skill】
【Skill Description】:
As a born emperor, the bloodline inherently possesses the ability to release monarchical pressure. When an emperor advances further, it can directly materialize the pressure and integrate it into telekinesis to form “Imperial Qi” attacks.
These three Skills are extremely closely related.
Among them, the powerful Covering Body Skill is like a master key, providing continuous buffing power for all other Skills.
It is like a mysterious shield, enveloping other Skills and multiplying their power.
The Imperial Might Skill has an even more unique role; it can specifically buff Telekinesis, making the already quite powerful Telekinesis even stronger.
This mutually cooperative and complementary relationship undoubtedly opened a door to a whole new realm for Yuan Wang.
It is worth mentioning that this brand new path does not discard past accumulations and advantages, but rather achieves innovation and breakthroughs while retaining existing achievements.
However, at first glance, Imperial Power does not seem to bring a substantial and significant improvement to Yuan Wang’s actual combat capabilities.
On the surface, it merely plays a certain role in managing the Slime Clan.
But in reality, Yuan Wang’s own strength is inextricably linked to the strength of the Slime Clan it leads.
Moreover, and more importantly, the Multiplication effect produced by Imperial Power is not limited to conventional scope; even a critical Skill like Catalysis can benefit from it.
As time progresses, if the Slime Clan can continuously improve its own strength, then when the proficiency of the Leaders Aura Skill reaches the Mystic form level, Yuan Wang will usher in a remarkable and huge improvement.
