191: No materials
Luo Chen looked at the information of the Haoyu Finch, which was now the Phoenix Sound Spirit King Sparrow, and sighed helplessly.
Even with the help of the five-tier spiritual item, phoenix blood grass, there was no way for the Phoenix Sound Spirit King Sparrow to develop Heaven-Grade or Pseudo-Heaven Grade Skills?
However, it had quite a few Earth-Grade Skills, and it seemed to be a Beast very suitable for frontal combat, which perfectly matched his mother's adventurous personality.
Luo Chen turned his gaze to the Peony Bird, hoping that this next Beast would bring him a small surprise.
Some changes also appeared on the Peony Bird; the peony patterns on its body seemed to become more vibrant and three-dimensional, as if the peonies were about to grow out of its body.
Evolution Path: 1. Peony Bird → Peony Flower Immortal Beast; 2. Peony Bird → Hundred Flowers Phoenix Spirit Bird; 3. Peony Bird → Nine-Feather Wood Azure Luan.
After seeing the current Evolution Path of the Peony Bird, Luo Chen was now deeply conflicted.
These names either had 'Immortal' or 'Phoenix' or 'Luan' in them, and they all seemed to be related to the Phoenix Bloodline; his decision paralysis had once again taken over.
In his helplessness, Luo Chen could only look at the materials they required.
Hmm, very good, he didn't have any of the materials for the three Beasts.
The Peony Flower Immortal Beast lacked the four-tier spiritual item Immortal Spirit Jade, while the Hundred Flowers Phoenix Spirit Bird lacked at least three types of four-tier spiritual flower.
The Nine-Feather Wood Azure Luan lacked four-tier spiritual wood, but there was no specific requirement for the type of wood attribute.
From this, it was clear that while Beasts with Phoenix Bloodline were powerful, the requirements for their Evolution materials were truly high.
However, even without evolving, the phoenix blood grass leaves were subtly enhancing and changing the Peony Bird's physique and talent.
So, its Evolution could wait; his mother shouldn't be going out for a while, so there was plenty of time to find suitable Evolution materials.
Walking to the wooden house, Luo Chen rescued the pitiful Fragrant Spirit Affinity Rabbit from the Light Spirit Cat King's claws.
He pulled out a card with purple patterns, which was the Primordial Descendant Card of the Lord of Thunder Prison he had obtained last time.
“System, how do I use this card?”
“Just select the target and release it.”
Luo Chen aimed his gaze at the Light Spirit Cat King in front of him, silently willed its use, and then saw the purple-patterned card instantly transform into tiny specks of light, slowly flowing into the Light Spirit Cat King's body.
The reaction was also very swift; the Light Spirit Cat King's wide eyes uncontrollably closed, and then wisps of purple lightning continuously dissipated into the surrounding environment.
The Fragrant Spirit Affinity Rabbit, which hadn't even dodged when the Light Spirit Cat King pawed at it, now scattered, leaving a large empty space.
Purple electric currents continuously flashed around the Light Spirit Cat King, as if even the fur on its body was transforming into purple.
However, this process was clearly not instantaneous; its transformation would require time for a gradualTransformation.
After observing for a while, Luo Chen turned his attention back to the numerous Fragrant Spirit Affinity Rabbit. Since these Fragrant Spirit Affinity Rabbit were cultivated to the King Beast realm, their breeding speed had become increasingly slow.
The highest-ranked one was only at King Beast Five Stars, and this was even with priority resource allocation. Moreover, no new Evolution Path for them had been seen for a long time.
Who knew when they could be cultivated to the Desolate Beast realm, and only then could they Spirit Affinity the five-tier spiritual item phoenix blood grass. Otherwise, they wouldn't be using one phoenix blood grass so sparingly now.
Luo Chen sent the two Beasts back to his mother, and sure enough, he saw the surprise and disbelief on his mother's face.
However, Luo Chen didn't say much; after delivering the Beasts, he slipped away alone and returned to the Chenyang Pet Store branch in the capital.
He naturally ignored Luo Yuheng's hesitant gaze.
It was nighttime, and the streets outside the capital were bustling with vibrant lights and activity.
Woodborn Dragon lay sprawled on the glass, gazing longingly at the scenery outside the window, occasionally muttering something softly.
However, Luo Chen, who had just returned to the shop, saw Woodborn Dragon's posture and his gaze was a bit strange.
“Cough, cough.”
He lightly coughed twice to let Woodborn Dragon know he was back.
As expected, Woodborn Dragon, hearing the sound, immediately changed its posture, looking as if it was diligently wiping the glass.
With a casual glance back, Woodborn Dragon acted as if it had just noticed Luo Chen, and asked with a fawning smile:
“Shopkeeper, you’re back. When are we opening for business?”
“Uh, uh, soon. I’m currently cultivating some Beasts. We’ll officially open after a while.
You take good care of the shop. There will be deliveries coming to the door recently, so make sure to sign for them.”
Woodborn Dragon nodded vigorously, indicating that it would definitely complete the task.
Seeing its obedience, Luo Chen walked towards the shop door, preparing to return to Cun You Mountain.
However, when he reached the doorway, Luo Chen hesitated for a moment, looking deeply at Woodborn Dragon.
“That…”
“Shopkeeper, is there anything else?” Woodborn Dragon's eyes were a bit curious.
“Uh, I heard that dragons have strong desires, but this is the shop, so you still need to pay attention to your image.”
After saying this, Luo Chen quickly opened the shop door and fled as if escaping.
Only Woodborn Dragon was left in the shop, utterly bewildered. What did the Shopkeeper mean by those words just now? Their Woodborn Dragon clan was as pure as could be.
…
The temperature in the world grew colder, and the snow seemed to have increased significantly.
Bai Yu felt the increasingly stagnant space and sighed softly. Looking at the orderlyTeam below, he quietly let out another breath.
This was the third city, Qingyuan City, that he was responsible for relocating. Fortunately, upon hearing that they were moving to the capital, not many residents objected.
Right, the destination after relocation was the prosperous capital, and not only would they be provided with housing of equal size to their current residences, but there was also a portion of financial support, so basically, few disagreed.
However, while ordinary residents agreed, some of the larger aristocratic families had some doubts.
Were they afraid of not being able to act as local emperors once they went to the capital? But under the pressure of his high-tier Desolate Beast strength, no one dared to openly object.
“Boom”
Suddenly, a violent sound came from the north, followed by a strong tremor.
Bai Yu could feel various chaotic auras coming from the north; this was not the first time Bai Yu had experienced such a thing.
He knew that another Secret Realm was merging with Earth Star. The already dangerous wilderness environment was now becoming even more complex.
The only comfort now was that the Secret Realms merging with Earth Star at most only contained Beasts of the King Tier.
Those Secret Realms containing Desolate Beasts had not yet begun to merge, otherwise, the current population migration plan might not be able to proceed smoothly.
However, the Beasts that emerged from this Secret Realm seemed a bit aggressive. As soon as the merge was complete, those Beasts frantically spread from the Secret Realm's territory to other areas.
Bai Yu stood high in the sky, gazing at that area, and unconsciously frowned, “Why is this Secret Realm full of annoying insects?”
In that Secret Realm merged with Earth Star, the ground and environment were all dark, with few plants, and the ground was entirely covered with terrifying deep holes, often hundreds of meters wide.
At this moment, an endless swarm of insect Beasts, like a black torrent, were crawling or flying out of them, spreading towards the surrounding Earth Star regions.
Wherever they passed, not a blade of grass remained.
Bai Yu's expression changed slightly as he stood high in the sky, because he observed a large swarm of insect Beasts, and their direction of advance was precisely the Qingyuan City below.
