87: Chapter 87 The Next Evolution, Jade Dragon
A large amount of escaping Evolution Light was refracted by the ice crystals and absorbed by the white fox's tails; the "venomous snakes" on the tails could not withstand the Evolution Light and gradually faded away.
By the time more than half of the curse had faded, the remaining, darkest parts, which shimmered with a dark red hue, tenaciously resisted the Evolution Light.
"Purified half, a pleasant surprise," Ming Yueguang said with a faint smile. "Little Xue, you help it as well."
The white fox let out a cry, its figure rapidly expanding into a massive fox seven or eight meters long, almost brushing the ceiling. Its seven tails swayed slightly, and with each sway, a mist was released, shrouding the entire cultivation room.
The Evolution Light continued to radiate, refracted by the mist and imbued with a layer of icy blue, before turning to land on the Silver Scale Bubble Fish, making its Evolution Light shine even brighter.
One minute later, the Evolution Light dimmed, and the fox shrank in size, letting out a yawn.
Ming Yueguang ran barefoot to Li Yu, glancing at Chen Qing on the way and recognizing her as the Guardian found for Li Yu.
Looking at Li Yu, who was unconscious with his brows tightly furrowed, Ming Yueguang's bright eyes flashed with a hint of mischief, and she reached out to pinch Li Yu's nose.
One second, two seconds...
Li Yu slowly woke up, and after a moment of confusion, he saw Ming Yueguang and asked in surprise, "President? Why are you here?"
"Your cultivation caused too much of a commotion, so I came to take a look," Ming Yueguang said.
"Cultivation?"
Li Yu recalled what happened before he lost consciousness and hurriedly sat up, looking toward the glass container. The Bubble Fish's evolution was nearing its end, and the white light was gradually fading.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly.
Ming Yueguang sighed, "You really caused quite a commotion. When I arrived, there were two people lying on the ground; I almost had to call an ambulance."
Li Yu scratched his head, smiled sheepishly, and got up to wake Chen Qing as well.
Realizing that she had been knocked unconscious by the Evolution Light, Chen Qing looked at Li Yu as if he were a monster.
"Let's take a look together and see what it turned into."
Li Yu walked toward the Bubble Fish, with Ming Yueguang and Chen Qing following on his left and right.
The light disappeared.
The Bubble Fish's brand-new appearance was revealed.
Its entire body was covered in golden scales, and its tail fin was as elegant as a ribbon, swaying slightly within the glass container. It did not seem surprised by their arrival; its two protruding eyeballs glanced at them once, then ignored them.
It was a Bubble Fish, still just a Bubble Fish.
The silver scales had turned into golden scales.
That was all.
Nothing else...
Chen Qing: "...As expected, it's still just a dish."
Ming Yueguang blinked, "How strange. With such a massive commotion, it's so unremarkable after evolving?"
Although Li Yu had anticipated this, seeing that the only result was a change in scale color, he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. However, he quickly composed himself and smiled, "There are always exceptions to everything. This was a new evolution method I was trying out, after all."
Neither Ming Yueguang nor Chen Qing suspected anything.
"At least it's a new variety. You truly live up to being our Senior Cultivator, well done," Ming Yueguang said with a smile.
Li Yu also smiled, then looked down, "You're not wearing shoes?"
"Oh! I forgot."
Ming Yueguang tapped her foot lightly, and high heels appeared on her feet, instantly bringing her eye level closer to Li Yu's.
Watching the two of them acting so naturally, a flash of suspicion crossed Chen Qing's eyes.
President of Mingyue, Ming Yueguang.
This famous female scholar and powerhouse was rumored to be someone not easy to get along with, yet now she actually cared about the opinion of someone in her company?
Something wasn't right.
But she didn't dwell on it; these matters had nothing to do with her.
"How are its attributes?" Chen Qing asked.
Li Yu opened the glass cover, reached out to gently stroke the Bubble Fish, and smiled, "We'll know once we test it."
After saying that, Li Yu led the Bubble Fish to the operation console, and after some operations, the machine began to test the Bubble Fish's attributes.
As for Li Yu, he took a look first.
【Monster Name】: Golden Scale Bubble Fish
【Monster Quality】: Extraordinary (S+)
【Monster Level】: black iron Level 3
【Monster Attribute】: Water
【Monster Talent】: Golden Scale Bubble
【Monster Introduction】: A mysterious Golden Scale Bubble Fish. Its scales are as hard as iron, but they don't seem to have any use.
【Final Evolution Goal】: Bixiao Divine Dragon (Mythical)
Fine.
I am so stupid.
To actually harbor any fantasies about the words "Golden Scale Bubble Fish," thinking it could become all that powerful.
Li Yu shook his head.
"What's wrong with you?" Chen Qing asked.
Li Yu grinned, "Nothing, I just feel like this evolution will definitely result in a super powerful Beast."
Chen Qing: "...As long as you're happy."
Ming Yueguang blinked, "You never know. At least the evolution light was impressive. I believe in you."
"Thank you."
Li Yu smiled, and seeing that the two did not press for more questions, he breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he continued to check the attributes, looking toward the next evolution.
【Next Target】: Flood Dragon Kind - Jade Dragon (Five-Colored Divine Light Type)
A Flood Dragon!
Li Yu's heart began to race wildly.
The "Flood Dragon" of dragons, the flood dragon before turning into a dragon; this time, it couldn't possibly be weak, right?
There has never been a report of a weak Flood Dragon in this world.
Li Yu continued to focus, checking the evolution method for the Jade Dragon.
Jade Dragon: Must absorb a large amount of elemental energy and comprehend at least a single-element Divine Light to transcend the scaled fish and transform into a Flood Dragon.
Very good.
It sounds very expensive.
However, what Li Yu didn't lack right now was money; Advanced Cultivation made money quickly, and he had plenty. What he lacked was combat power.
At this time, the attributes on the testing machine also appeared.
It was about the same as what Li Yu had seen, just missing the information about the next evolution.
Extraordinary, S+.
It sounded very impressive, but after seeing the attributes, both Chen Qing and Ming Yueguang were silent for a moment.
Chen Qing: "You lost out on this evolution."
Ming Yueguang didn't know what materials Li Yu had used, so she didn't pay much attention. After a brief moment of surprise, she smiled, "It's fine. If you cultivate it, it might be able to comprehend other skills. S+ shouldn't be too bad."
Chen Qing glanced at her, realizing that she knew more information than the other woman, and as expected, she didn't say anything. Furthermore, for some reason, she felt a secret joy that she was closer to Li Yu.
Not much, but it was there.
"I've decided!" Ming Yueguang suddenly spoke.
"Decided on what?" Li Yu asked.
"How about you handle the next cultivation for my Beast?"
"Huh?"
It was no wonder Li Yu was surprised; as the President of Bright Moon Company and someone rumored to be even stronger than the Guardian of Ningyang City, Ming Yueguang should have a top-tier exclusive Breeder.
There was no reason for her to come to him, was there?
"It's going to be you. Are you confident?" Ming Yueguang asked.
"Your exclusive Breeder will kill me."
"That guy is already dead."
"Uh... my condolences."
"No need," Ming Yueguang said with a smile, "I killed him."
"..."
This beauty really knew how to chat; one sentence had rendered Li Yu speechless.
Looking at that impossibly beautiful face, the smile as sweet as if it had been sugared, and then thinking about that sentence which was colder than ice.
Li Yu was numb.
But Ming Yueguang didn't give him any time to think at all. She clapped her hands and said, "It's happily decided then. Whenever you need to test a Beast, come find me."
After saying this, Ming Yueguang stepped away in her crystal shoes, taking the little white fox with her, and quickly disappeared from the cultivation room, leaving Li Yu and Chen Qing staring at each other.
The Golden Scale Bubble Fish bubbled away.
"My condolences."
"Thank you."
