35. Chapter 35

1701 Establish a General

However, not everyone was willing to reveal their identity.

Thus, most Creation Masters did not activate their second Star Web Card.

Sixth Page Lashing had obtained this Star Web Card from Feng Rou.

But when he thought about the information regarding Star Web that Tower Canon had gathered, Sixth Page Lashing did not take the risk of logging into Star Web.

After all, Star Web was made of three sacred source lifeforms.

As long as the three owners of the sacred source lifeforms did not lock each other out, there was nothing on Star Web that was secret to them.

If Sixth Page Lashing logged into Star Web, there was a high chance he would be discovered.

Hence, he waited where he was for the four horsemen that Second Page Revival had mentioned to arrive.

He would make his appearance once the four horsemen arrived.

When his mind reached this thought, Sixth Page Lashing frowned because he remembered that Second Page Revival had addressed First Page Crimson as 'Lord First Page Crimson'.

Yet, she did not follow this pattern when addressing First Page Fate.

…

Within the cover of the Mountain River Grain God Bells, Qian Yu pretended to ponder for a moment before he said, "I heard that Chef Supreme was the Radiance Federation's first Class 5 Creation Master. His disciple must be extraordinary!

"My first pick shall be Chef Supreme's disciple! Let's see just how extraordinary he is! As for the second contestant, I shall pick the disciple of royalty, who's also Sequence #1 of the Radiance Hundred Sequence! We're picking Sequence #1 instead of Sequence #3 to show our sincerity in this friendly match."

Qian Yu appeared polite, but the Radiance Federation's royalty all knew the truth.

It was no secret that Zong Ze was afflicted by bad luck.

Chef Supreme had intentionally brought this up at an imperial meeting, and the members of royalty had banded together to address the situation. As a result, the bad luck was halted before it turned more severe, and Zong Ze's life was saved.

It could be said that Qian Yu's words were as shameless as they could be. He was clearly trying to drag in the person he thought was the easiest prey.

The Freedom Federation had gathered all the public information on Liu Jie and Xia Qing.

According to what they knew, Xia Qing was stronger than Liu Jie.

In a five-versus-five fight, a formation tactic would be greatly limited.

Unless everyone else adjusted to Liu Jie's formations, any changes to the conditions would render previous designs useless.

Only Chef Supreme was aware of Zong Ze's usage of the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen. The other members of royalty were completely unaware.

Night Leaning Moon had never revealed how many insect-species carcinoma feys Liu Jie had contracted or the fact that he had contracted the Firefly Demon Fetuses that could change insect-species carcinoma feys into higher lifeforms.

Thus, the other members of royalty were understandably uneasy.

Star Web's morale would take an inevitable hit if they lost the battle in front of the entire Star Web.

Given the chaotic state that the world was currently in, they needed to use a real fight to let the citizens of the Radiance Federation know the importance of always being ready for battle.

The Radiance Federation had never been insistent on winning. But this was a match that they could not afford to lose.

None of them dared to think about what the consequences would be if they did lose.

Moreover, all of them treasured their disciples.

The Moon Empress and Night Leaning Moon would not be able to bring themselves to watch their disciples die.

Not even Cicada Song was confident that he would be able to remain still if Gao Feng was in peril.

Despite being in the midst of an emergency, Liu Jie and Zong Ze smiled.

What Liu Jie needed the most was the chance to be by Lin Yuan's side at the moment of greatest danger.

This match would be to the death and concerned the glory of the Radiance Federation. By being granted the chance to be by Lin Yuan's side in such a situation, both of Liu Jie's faiths had been fulfilled.

Zong Ze's thoughts were rather similar to those of Liu Jie.

Zong Ze's power had not only increased and was completely different from before, but he also saw Lin Yuan as his best friend. He badly wanted to safeguard the Radiance Federation's glory alongside him.

An He, Gu Lang, and Xia Qing were visibly in low spirits.

Zong Ze and Liu Jie shared a look before they jumped down from the golden pillars.

Li Nao, Lin Yuan, Zhang Zihao, and the other members until Sequence #98 jumped down from their silver pillars and walked over to Liu Yifan.

Lin Yuan, Gao Feng, Liu Jie, and Zong Ze's expressions were calm, but Li Nao, Zhang Zihao, and the other six members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence felt that their combined powers would be grossly insufficient in this battle where blood would inevitably be spilled. Follow the latest novels 𝒐𝒏 n𝒐

The other six members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence might not even be able to defeat Black!

The other team was led by the third Freedom Envoy, and three of their members were favored by royalty.

It was possible that they would not even last five minutes before drawing their final breaths.

They had never been so close to imminent death in their lives.

However, they now had the responsibility of the Radiance Federation's honor on their shoulders and were not going to shirk it.

Despite knowing that they were outmatched, fires of motivation burned in their gazes,

Even if they died, they could not go down easily. They had to make their deaths count.

Yin Lin's eyes landed on Lin Yuan.

On the surface, it seemed that the Radiance Federation was at an advantage by having another disciple of royalty.

Nonetheless, Yin Lin could not relax.

She had been the one who fed information to Lin Yuan.

She had not established a partnership with the Freedom Federation. But even if she had, she did not believe that they would be fully open with her.

Now that both teams were formed, each with one federation envoy at the helm and ten people behind them, Liu Wencheng prepared to announce that the battle was going to officially begin.

But at this moment, the mostly apathetic Li Yang took a step forward and said, "Since this friendly match will test so many of our best, why don't we make it more official? As per the Major Federation Meeting's rules of battle, the match will be divided into three rounds of Capture the General, and one last group battle. What do you think?"

Given that Li Yang was a member of the Freedom Federation's royalty, the Radiance Federation did not have a legitimate reason to reject his proposal.

If they did, they would come off as weak.

Unlike a group battle, Capture the General required every individual to be able to hold their own in order to protect their general.

1702 Battle That Cannot be Lost!

The rules of Capture the General were more complicated, and it was a more important segment of the Major Federation Meeting than the group battle was.

Capture the General was broken down into three rounds

The first round was a three-versus-three battle in which each three-man team had to choose one amongst themselves to get a general that the other two had to protect.

Besides injuring or killing the other team's general, each team's general could decide whether to proceed with the battle.

The second round would proceed with the same generals while one of the other two members of each team would swap out. The battle would proceed in the same format as the first round. A team could win by killing the other team's general, or a team's general could concede defeat.

The third round would be a one-on-one fight between the generals of both teams.

The fight would only end when one side won by killing their opponent or lost by conceding defeat.

Although the rules involved three rounds, one side could also claim victory early by winning two consecutive rounds if their general remained alive.

If the general of either side was killed, victory would be directly awarded to the other side.

As such, each team's general had to be a spirit qi professional who was competent in all areas.

Normally, a spirit qi professional competent in all areas would have less impressive abilities than one skilled in only one area.

However, they would be able to perform well in Capture the General because the chosen generals were not allowed to receive healing throughout all three rounds unless they or their teammates had healing abilities of their own.

However, if they sent a healing-type spirit qi professional or support-type spirit qi professional to be part of the team, the already limited combat power of the team would diminish even more.

For Capture the General, picking the general would be a challenging problem.

Including the general, there would be four people in total from each side who participated in Capture the General.

The other three members of each team could not participate in the following group battle, but the winning team's general could.

This meant that a spirit qi professional with comprehensive power was needed to lay the ground for the following group battle.

The best choice for the Radiance Federation would be to send Liu Yifan to participate in Capture the General.

If Liu Yifan volunteered to participate in Capture the General, Qian Yu would definitely step in.

Moreover, Liu Yifan was not a jack-of-all-trades type of spirit qi professional. Thus, he was not suited to be the general.

Li Yang had suggested Capture the General because he recognized this.

But besides Liu Yifan, who else could take up that position?

In order to participate in three rounds, the general had to be able to control the drain of their spirit qi to ensure that they had enough left over for the final one-on-one fight.

Regardless of whether or not their opponent still had a lot of spiritual power left over, their loss would be guaranteed if they ran out of spirit qi.

But before Liu Yifan could speak, the elderly man seated on the center golden pillar swept his gaze across Liu Yifan and the young people standing behind him before he said, "The Radiance Federation has no reason to turn such a request down. There is a 10,000-square-kilometer practice ground behind the Radiance Sacred Hall. It is modeled after the island where the Major Federation Meeting takes place. The geography of that place makes it the most suitable to hold Capture the General and the group battle."

Li Yang spoke up immediately after. "I was afraid that the Radiance Federation would ask to hold the friendly match on Star Web! A real battle is much better for demonstrating a spirit qi professional's character. Fighting while knowing that you can't truly die is a completely different feeling from knowing that death is a real threat. It might be a friendly match, but attacks can't always be fully controlled. I hope the Radiance Federation will be understanding in the event of an accidental injury!"

From the moment that the Radiance Federation accepted the format of Capture the General and group battle, Li Yang stopped bothering to hide his fangs.

The comments streaming into Star Web had slowed. All of them were holding their breaths and silently offering moral support to the Radiance Federation.

The Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation had started coming up with their own strategies.

Liu Yifan looked at Liu Jie, Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, and finally Lin Yuan before saying, "Is there any among the four of you who can take on the responsibility of being the general? If none of you wish to do it, I shall."

Liu Yifan had participated in numerous Capture the General battles and knew how much pressure the general had to withstand.

Hence, he only asked to hear their opinions but was ready to take on the role himself.

His decision came out of a place of consideration for Zong Ze, Liu Jie, Lin Yuan, and Gao Feng.

Capture the General was very dangerous and led to death very easily.

Additionally, none out of the four of them had experience with Capture the General and did not know how to control their spirit qi in the first two rounds.

At every Major Federation Meeting, there would be federations that sacrificed the other three members in order to give the general a chance to claim victory in the final round.

This was because conceding defeat was not allowed in the last round.

Normally, one of the generals of the two battling federations would end up dead. F0lloww new 𝒄hapters at nov/(e)

Given that Liu Jie's goal was to protect Lin Yuan, he did not volunteer.

After a moment's consideration, Zong Ze felt that his battle style of explosive power did not make him a suitable candidate for general.

It was not even a question for Gao Feng as there was no way a support-type spirit qi professional would be able to survive when surrounded by three attackers.

As for the rest, they were members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, but they did not even have Diamond/Fantasy feys. They would be nothing more than sitting ducks if they took the role.

Just as Liu Yifan was about to take up the role himself, Lin yuan took a step forward and said, "I can be the general! As long as I have a breath left in me, I will do all I can!"

Lin Yuan's words pulled the attention of Liu Yifan and the other members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence to him.

Liu Yifan did not investigate the power of Black's feys.

All he said was, "Do you know the risks of Capture the General? Once you're out there, it will end with either both generals heavily injured or only one survivor. You won't be able to concede then!"

1703 Second Secret Weapon!

Lin Yuan nodded. He did not make a promise but just emphasized again, "I will do all I can!"

Liu Yifan took a deep breath and replied, "The general is allowed to use one precious weapon during Capture the General. This is part of the rules. You have to remember this! Since you chose to become the general, the team will do its best to assist you before the group battle. You can pick your three teammates. According to the opponent's strength, I will step in to help you if Qian Yu participates. I'll also do all I can to protect you."

Liu Jie became naturally worried when Lin Yuan volunteered to be the general.

As per the rules, Liu Jie would only be able to help Lin Yuan once. But if he participated in Capture the General, he would not be able to participate in the group battle.

!

However, Lin Yuan had voluntarily put himself in danger.

As his retainer, Liu Jie hated himself for not being able to do his duty of being and fighting by Lin Yuan's side.

Nonetheless, he could do nothing about this because those were the rules.

Zong Ze and Gao Feng were also fearful for Lin Yuan's safety, but their thoughts greatly differed from those of Liu Jie.

Both of them felt that Lin Yuan was indeed the best candidate because he was one of the rare healing-type spirit qi professionals.

He could heal himself and even recover his own spiritual power. As such, he would be able to take care of himself during battle.

Even after the three rounds of Capture the General, Lin Yuan would still be in optimal condition.

This would be crucial for the third round.

Moreover, Liu Yifan had said that Lin Yuan could choose his own teammates and would step in if Qian Yu participated.

If the opponent sent out experts who were favored by royalty, they also had their own disciples of royalty.

Thus, before the one-on-one fight, the other teammates would be able to protect Lin Yuan and ensure that he did not expend too much spiritual power before that.

After a decision was made, Liu Yifan took a step back while Lin Yuan stepped forward to stand next to Liu Yifan.

Liu Yifan and Lin Yuan's actions allowed the audience on Star Web to realize that Black was going to take up the responsibility of being general.

Although the audience had never seen how Black looked behind his mask, there was proof that he was only around 18 years old.

Regardless of how they felt about Black, many members of the audience started shedding tears at this point.

A young man should be attending school. Yet, here he was, holding up the Radiance Federation's honor and pride with his life.

If anyone there was anyone that still assumed that the Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation were going to take part in a friendly match, they realized the truth once Li Yang mentioned the Major Federation Meeting.

The Major Federation Meeting struck a chord with every person in the main world.

After every Major Federation Meeting ended, there would be a worldwide mourning to grieve for the Radiance Envoys and Radiance Knights that had lost their lives and return their bodies to their families.

The Major Federation Meeting not only allowed the federations to demonstrate their power but would also be an elegy for heroes.

Hence, from the moment Li Yang mentioned the Major Federation Meeting, every audience member knew that the impending battle was going to be a bloodbath.

Lake Spirit: I used to really like watching battles. The fights on Star Web are always exciting, and I used to spend a lot of time watching the recordings in the Celestial Stairway's video library! But for some reason, I don't have the courage to watch the upcoming fight.

Sacred Heart White Tiger: Did Black just take a step forward to volunteer to be the general? Oh my God! My heart is beating so quickly! Black has to win!

Person of Action: The general is the most important role in Capture the General. Why didn't the four disciples of royalty step up instead of Black? I can't help but feel like Lord Liu Yifan would be a better choice.

Blooming Centerfield: I don't think you guys need to overthink this. Just pray and give your moral support. I don't dare to watch this battle either, but I have to. I have to remember how these heroes used their lives to secure the Radiance Federation's glory!

On the Freedom Federation's side, it was not a discussion like it had been with the Radiance Federation team.

Rather, Qian Yu decided everything on his own.

At first, he wanted Yan Ling to be the general.

She was one of the Freedom Federation's elite and did not think much of the Radiance Federation's young generation. After all, she had not experienced much hardship in her life and was accustomed to a life where she was beloved by three members of royalty. Ne/w novel chapt𝒆rs are published on no/vel( /m

He said to Yan Ling, "Yan Ling, your power shines when you're working with Cai Huo and You Changjian. Only the first round of Capture the General guarantees that the three of you will be together. But if Cai Huo and You Changjian participate in the first round, they won't be able to participate in the group battle even if you manage to kill the silver mask-wearing boy. Without them, you won't be able to demonstrate your abilities."

Qian Yu was far from happy.

An anvil of pressure had landed on his shoulders after the member of royalty who favored him had publicly tried to recruit Lin Yuan. He was terrified that he would fall out of the Goddess of Mercy's graces.

Hence, he brought his emotions into his conversation with Yan Ling.

What he meant to say was that Yan Ling was the most useful when she teamed up with You Changjian and Cai Huo.

However, the feeling that Yan Ling got from Qian Yu was that he looked down on her power. This greatly annoyed her.

Qian Yu turned to look at Lu Ou and said, "Lu Ou, why don't you take part in Capture the General as the general?"

Qian Yu's first pick had been Lu Ou all along.

You Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo were favored by royalty, but Lu Ou was Na Na's new disciple.

A member of royalty could have many favored experts but only one disciple.

Qian Yu did not expect Lu Ou to reject him just as he was about to confirm his choice.

"I'm not suited for long battles. I don't have healing or recovery abilities, either! I'll only take part in the group battle. Don't involve me in Capture the General."

By rejecting Qian Yu, Lu Ou had humiliated him.

However, Qian Yu did not comment on this.

Lu Ou did have the right to turn Qian Yu down, given his status as Na Na's disciple.

Since Lu Ou was unwilling to participate, Qian Yu cast his gaze onto the Freedom Federation's second secret weapon.

1704 Capture the General Stage

Qian Yu said to the blond young man standing next to Lu Ou, "Han Qi, you shall participate in Capture the General. This is the best chance for you to demonstrate your power. If you do well and win Capture the General, Du Miao might be willing to accept you as his disciple when we return."

In the Freedom Federation, favored experts and disciples were different.

Favored experts were just young experts that the members of royalty saw promise in and were willing to invest some resources in them.

The favored experts competed with each other to bring pride to the members of royalty who favored them.

The more members of royalty that favored a young expert, the higher status they would attain in the Freedom Federation.

However, the royalty still saw their favored experts as outsiders.

Du Miao had the most favored experts, 73 of them in total.

Hence, it was much better to be a disciple of royalty than a favored expert.

This was the reason Lu Ou dared to oppose Qian Yu.

If Qian Yu instructed Cai Huo, Yan Ling, or You Changjian to participate, the three of them would have no right to turn him down, regardless of how unwilling they were.

Du Miao had long been thinking about accepting Han Qi as his disciple. He had revealed this sentiment before.

As such, no other member of royalty accepted Han Qi as their favored expert, regardless of how interested they were in his talents.

No other member of royalty had taken him in as a favored expert, and Du Miao had not accepted him as a disciple. As such, Han Qi had been in a difficult position for the last few years.

When he walked next to Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian, he felt significant scorn from Yan Ling.

Rather, it was Lu Ou who was friendly with him.

Han Qi felt that he would be able to win easily if he fought either Yan Ling, Cai Huo, or You Changjian individually. F0lloww new 𝒄hapters at nov/(e)

Although he was not as strong as Lu Ou's monster, his combat abilities were more comprehensive.

He also had healing and support abilities and was suitable to be the general in Capture the General. Thus, he nodded and said firmly, "Lord Qian Yu, don't worry! With me there, I will do everything I can to wipe out all the opponents."

A month ago, Du Miao had given Han Qi some advice as well as some resources.

It seemed like he was going to publicly invite Han Qi to be his disciple.

However, Du Miao had clashed against the Radiance Federation and ended up being inflicted with something. As a result, he had been in seclusion.

This prevented Han Qi from attaining disciple status before the envoy group left for the Radiance Federation.

Han Qi had wondered more than once how he could show his face in front of Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian if he failed to become a disciple of royalty.

Even if he turned Qian Yu down like Lu Ou had, Qian Yu would not be able to do much about it either.

Han Qi felt that all of this was the Radiance Federation's fault. Thus, he resented and reviled the Radiance Federation with fervor.

It was the Radiance Federation who had blocked his future.

Thus, despite the fight not starting yet, Han Qi was already filled with enmity and murderous rage for the Radiance Federation.

After being rejected by Lu Ou, Han Qi had just mended Qian Yu's pride.

Although Han Qi did not have any official status yet, he was still the most likely candidate to become Du Miao's disciple.

If Han Qi could win Capture the General, there would be no question that he would become a disciple of royalty once he returned to the Freedom Federation.

Qian Yu was exhilarated that a future disciple of royalty had acted so respectfully to him.

"Han Qi, we're counting on you for Capture the General! After both sides pick their generals, the generals will pick their teammates. If the other side doesn't send their disciples of royalty, I'll also send in the carefully nurtured members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence we brought. Your individual power is much stronger than that of Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian. We will wait for your good news!"

Qian Yu was praising Han Qi.

However, his words caused Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's expressions to darken.

The three of them were favored by royalty. Their sacred source lifeforms were linked and were deemed to be S strategic resources by the Freedom Federation.

As such, they had always sauntered around.

They not only used resources given by members of royalty to increase their power but also resources from the Mirror God.

Although the three of them were not disciples of royalty, they were treated just as well as disciples of royalty.

Hence, the three of them were extremely high and mighty.

Although it was a fact that Han Qi's individual combat power was superb, what Qian Yu said still hurt their prices.

Nonetheless, the three of them could not oppose a Freedom Envoy.

However, the three of them were definitely not going to pretend to be happy about it.

Although Qian Yu was the one who had spoken, the three of them focused their anger on Han Qi.

"Han Qi, you are indeed our secret weapon. However, we can't be certain that the Radiance Federation doesn't have a secret weapon of their own. You just need to ensure that you don't lose. Du Miao has never been set on accepting you as his disciple. If you embarrass yourself and put Du Miao off, he might give up on you and pick someone new!"

Cai Huo and You Changjian were both thinkers. The difference was that Cai Huo did not like to put himself out there, while You Changjian was more impulsive.

The two of them did not have serious language issues, but they did not give bad impressions.

Meanwhile, Yan Ling did not have much of a filter and was very straightforward.

Yan Ling's words were like a thousand knives that plunged into Han Qi's chest.

She brought up everything that he was worried about.

There was an aftermath of silence after she spoke.

Qian Yu frowned and shot Yan Ling a glare.

This was because Liu Wencheng had stood up on his golden pillar and started to speak.

"This battle will take place at the Radiance Sacred Alter's martial arts stage and will be broadcast on Star Web. The scale of the martial ground replicates that of the Major Federation Meeting. Capture the General will take place at the center, on the 5,000 square meter stage. Let us all move there now!"

1705 At Any Moment!

The Radiance Hundred Sequence selection had come to an end.

Since this was a fight between the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation's young generation, it was unrelated to the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.

Only the Radiance Federation's royalty, the Radiance Hundred Sequence, and the two federation envoy groups headed to the martial ground.

However, every person from the Radiance Federation who was logged into Star Web could watch what was happening in real time.

!

All of them knew that Black had been chosen as the general. He was going to demonstrate his true power and summon his feys during this battle.

In the past, the audience hoped that Black would reveal all his secret weapons so they could satisfy their curiosity and finally find out what feys he had.

But now, they had a completely different view.

None of them wanted Black to reveal his secret weapons during the fight. Rather, they hoped that he would hold back some of his secret weapons.

Eight months ago, a young man wearing black and a silver mask seemed to appear from thin air and saved Millstone Town from the insect tide.

Next, he took control of the alien beast wave from a Class 3 abyss dimensional rift and averted the impending crisis.

Now, this silver mask-wearing young man was going to play the role of general to take on the Freedom Federation in a battle to the death for the sake of the Radiance Federation's glory.

This young man's footsteps left a deep imprint on the audience's hearts. Each step was so heavy and fuelled by passion.

The sound of his footsteps allowed the audience on Star Web to realize that he was walking with such certainty because he was driven by his willpower to protect his land.

Liu Yifan took a few steps forward and said to Lin Yuan, "I'm not too clear on your strength. If you find yourself struggling after the first round, I can send Zong Ze or Liu Jie to help you in the second round. That will give us a better chance of eliminating the other team's general. That will save you from having to fight one-on-one in the last round."

Liu Yifan had said this to boost Black's confidence.

Moreover, he did not understand Black's power and intended to let Black make his own decisions based on his experience of the circumstances.

Lin Yuan shook his head firmly and said, "As long as the other side doesn't send any favored experts, I will only need Li Nao, Zhang Zihao, and the rest to cooperate with me. I can do it, trust me!"

Liu Yifan was stunned by what Black said. He could sense a strong wave of confidence coming from Black, as well as the ability to comfort others during difficult times.

Zong Ze and Liu Jie had witnessed Lin Yuan's power and did not think any young expert could compete with him.

After all, his sacred source lifeform had already been able to produce an attack with the power of a pinnacle Myth Breed feys a few months ago.

Despite the Heaven Crimson Fire having reached 4 Stars, Zong Ze still ended up losing to Lin Yuan.

However, this fight could still result in Lin Yuan's death.

As such, both of them were filled with worry.

At that moment, the audience on Star Web and the 13 members of royalty were all caught by what Lin Yuan had said.

'I can do it, trust me.'

The Moon Empress took a deep breath, and her gaze zeroed in on Lin Yuan's hair.

The only curb to her panic was the knowledge that Blood New Moon was hidden in Lin Yuan's hair.

It was not that she did not believe him but that he was just too important to her.

The Moon Empress could not imagine what her life would turn into if she lost him.

Chu Ci was hugging the Mother of Bloodbath tightly. Her hands were trembling slightly as she struggled to fight back her tears. FOlloow 𝒏ewest stories at n𝒐(v)

She finally understood why Lin Yuan had forbidden her from participating in this year's Radiance Hundred Sequence selection and why he had such a resolute expression on his face.

He must have already known that this was going to happen.

The Mother of Bloodbath gently embraced Chu Ci and said, "Chu Ci, Lin Yuan will be fine!"

Blood New Moon had already reached Eternal long ago. But, he had even absorbed the fire-elemental energy at the lava zone left over by Jade Sundial.

Hence, he was on the brink of reaching pinnacle Eternal.

This amount of power was sufficient to protect Lin Yuan.

Moreover, that elderly man and the Moon Empress were present.

The Goddess of Mercy could not do anything even if she wanted to.

However, if Blood New Moon stepped in, the situation would instantly turn turbulent.

Although the Mother of Bloodbath did not understand the Radiance Federation's circumstances, it knew that it would take some time for the Radiance Federation's development into the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift and abyssal world to be completed.

Once the mirror cities were built in the abyssal world, it would be a perfect bunker for the regular citizens to escape into if war truly ended up breaking out.

Alas, the bunker's construction was not complete yet.

When they arrived at the Capture the General stage in the middle of the martial ground, Lin Yuan took a step up onto the stage.

Han Qi followed suit.

He looked at Lin Yuan and said, "Those who participate in Capture the General now won't be able to take part in the group battle later. We will now choose our teammates. The person who picks first now will pick second in the second round. What do you think?"

"We can just follow the rules of Capture the General!" replied Lin Yuan.

Han Qi pointed at one of the members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence, indicating his choice.

Lin Yuan waved over the last member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

When Han Qi saw who Lin Yuan picked, he picked an average member of the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

From the information Yin Lin gave Lin Yuan about these two people, there was nothing exceptional about them.

However, her information had not included the purple-haired young man standing on stage and the silver-haired young man he had been standing next to before he came on stage.

These two people, as well as Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian were the ones that Lin Yuan had to pay special attention to.

Lin Yuan felt these two people had tricks up their sleeves for some reason.

His suspicions would be confirmed during the upcoming fight.

At that moment, Lin Yuan and Han Qi stood on the 5,000-square-meter stage, flanked by their chosen teammates.

The fight was about to begin at any moment.

1706 Three Precious Instruments!

Lin Yuan had volunteered to take up the position of general because he had contemplated the situation after understanding the rules of Capture the General.

Liu Jie and Zong Ze had their own methods.

If he was forced to fight to the death against them, he could not be confident that he would emerge victorious.

Lin Yuan did not know what Zong Ze's current secret weapons were, nor what abilities Liu Jie's secret source lifeform had.

!

There was a possibility that a secret weapon would suddenly be used during the battle that completely turned the tide.

However, the Jasmine Lily would enable Lin Yuan to heal himself, and Blackie could replenish his spiritual power.

Additionally, Lin Yuan had the Vitality Imprint and Spirit Qi Imprint.

If he activated these imprints, Lin Yuan would quickly turn into a powerful beast.

Both Blackie and the Jasmine Lily had reached Diamond X/Fantasy V.

The spirit qi and vitality had been accumulating over time.

Lin Yuan just needed to activate them, and he would be able to tap into more spirit qi than even a thearch-class expert had within their body.

In order for Lin Yuan to become a jack-of-all-trades type of spirit qi professional, he relied on the shockingly outstanding feys he had contracted and the source-type lifeforms he had spirit locked.

As such, it was only natural for him to step up now.

He could have picked Liu Jie and Zong Ze to be on the safe side.

However, this would definitely result in them having to give up their best team arrangement for the group battle later.

Lin Yuan felt that Liu Yifan, Liu Jie, himself, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng would be the best team for the group battle.

The five of them would be able to unleash the strongest power to take on the plot that the Freedom Federation envoy group had been stewing on for some time.

The Freedom Federation must have already accounted for Liu Yifan and Zong Ze's powers and raised their expectations just in case.

The unknown variables of their team were Gao Feng's sacred source lifeform, Liu Jie's insect-species carcinoma feys, and Lin Yuan.

In order for them to win, they had to play their best cards.

Lin Yuan had witnessed Li Nao and Zhang Zihao's power. Both of them were qualified to be members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Half a year ago, Lin Yuan could only dream of being as powerful as them. F0lloww new 𝒄hapters at nov/(e)

But now, Lin Yuan just needed to fight seriously, and he would be able to take both of them down quickly.

In fact, he would only need to use the Source Sand.

It could be said that the other new members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence would be nothing more than sitting ducks if they participated in this farce of a friendly match.

Once the fight started, they would be killed almost immediately.

Lin Yuan could not stand by and watch as two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence lost their lives. Hence, he would need to protect them.

At that moment, a thought occurred to Han Qi and he raised his left fist as he said, "According to the rules, every general is entitled to make one request before Capture the General begins. I would like to request that the use of precious weapons be allowed."

Liu Wencheng looked at the ring on Han Qi's ring finger, the dagger on his hip, and the purple-gold cuff around his wrist. All of these were precious instruments.

He would need to use spiritual power to activate them.

However, it would require less spiritual power to activate them than it did to commandeer feys.

The Freedom Federation's royalty nurtured their favored experts by giving them a precious instrument when they were young.

This precious instrument might not be compatible with the expert.

But at that time, the expert was almost no different from a blank canvas.

There were a few favored experts who fell off the wagon.

In order to increase their power, they would center their fey system around their precious instrument.

They could also use their precious instrument to increase their combat power and durability.

But for the Radiance Federation, even the disciples of royalty had their own fully fleshed-out battle style.

They would only be able to choose a main ingredient from a sacred source lifeform to turn it into a precious instrument once they contracted their first sacred source lifeform.

It was difficult to say which way of nurturing young experts was better.

The Freedom Federation placed emphasis on the early nurturing of spirit qi professionals, while the Radiance Federation preferred nurturing at the later stage.

However, it seemed that there was no question that the Freedom Federation's way of nurturing was giving them the advantage now.

As long as the request made by the general abided by the rules, it had to be granted.

After Han Qi made his request, he pulled out the purple-black dagger.

It resembled the tooth of a beast, and it was covered with the patterns of snakes.

It was as though it was subtly absorbing the vitality of every person in the vicinity, with the exception of Han Qi.

When Han Qi pulled out this precious instrument, the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence hastily took about five steps back in order to protect themselves.

Otherwise, their vitality would have been drained by the purple dagger. They would wither and die before the fight even started.

Han Qi was known as the Purple Demon Blade in the Freedom Federation.

The short purple-black dagger in his hand had become his symbol.

He was one of those who crafted all his other precious instruments according to the first one he received when he was ten years old.

With regard to precious instruments, the Moon Empress had made five for Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan stored all of them in the Spirit Lock spatial zone and had no intention of using them.

Although there were practically no restrictions as to how they could be used, Lin Yuan was not accustomed to using precious instruments in battle.

If he used something in battle that he was not skilled at wielding, it would very likely backfire on him.

Lin Yuan had so many methods at his disposal that he did not have to worry at all. He never had to worry about running out of ways to counter his opponents.

What he had to worry about was the best way to allocate the spiritual power in his body.

Just as Han Qi was about to pluck off his ring to toss it into the air, the four strange eyes on the ring started to turn, and something was about to be summoned.

At that moment, Lin Yuan said, "My request is that both sides will only be allowed to use one precious instrument at the most."

Lin Yuan's words caused the smile on Han Qi's face to turn stiff.

1707 The Left Fist Swung by Black!

During Capture the General, a general could make a request that countered the request made by the other general.

Instead of making a new request, Lin Yuan made use of the opportunity to limit Han Qi's usage of precious instruments.

When Han Qi heard what Lin Yuan said, he scoffed coldly. "Are you afraid of fighting me using precious weapons? If that's the case, you could just have requested that both sides aren't allowed to use precious instruments at all."

Lin Yuan shook his head and said, "No, I should actually thank you for making that request. I have a precious instrument that I must use during Capture the General."

!

Lin Yuan took out a golden pouch. It was the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad's stomach that Chef Supreme had given him.

It used to only be a 2 Stars precious instrument.

But after being cleansed by the Moon Empress and the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad's eyes were added to it, it was now 3 Stars.

Lin Yuan had used True Data to check on Han Qi's short purple dagger. As such, he knew that it was a 5 Stars precious instrument.

A 5 Stars precious instrument had to come from a 5 Stars sacred source lifeform.

Precious instruments inherited a portion of their abilities from the sacred source lifeforms they came from.

Han Qi's precious instrument was called the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade and came from the tooth of the Barren Overgrown Demon Lizard.

Lin Yuan did not know what the Barren Overgrown Demon Lizard's abilities were, but the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade had two combat abilities.

1. Barren Overgrown Protection: By absorbing the vitality from the surrounding environment and lifeforms, a shield in the shape of a demon will be created. The lifeforms that came into contact with the shield will immediately have their vitality drained away.

2. Clan Adjudication: After the blade absorbs a type of vitality, it will be able to analyze the vitality. If they share any similarities, the blade will automatically absorb the vitality.

Lin Yuan inhaled sharply when he saw these abilities.

Previously, he felt that Red Thorn and Silver Corona were unrivaled.

But now, he knew that he was wrong.

The Demon Lizard Tooth Blade would be able to render both Silver Corona and Red Thorn useless.

With the first ability, Han Qi could hack away at the sea of flowers, and the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade would absorb all the vitality from the lotus flowers and ramets. This would lower the brutal vine ramets' attacking power.

If he used Clan Adjudication as well, the sea of flowers created by Red Thorn and Silver Corona would immediately turn into an energy source for the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

It could be said that the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade perfectly countered feys that fought by extending and dividing themselves.

The Demon Lizard Tooth Blade would also seriously affect Liu Jie.

Although Liu Jie not only depended on the Insect Queen's sea of insects to fight, insect-species carcinoma feys brought on disaster by spawning. Visjt n𝒐velbin.c𝒐m for new updates

Lin Yuan felt that it was good news that Han Qi had taken on the role of general.

However, the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade was very bad news for the Radiance Federation's team.

Not even a Class 4 Creation Master could see the breakdown of a 5 Stars precious instrument at one glance. Only Class 5 Creation Masters who had contracted sacred source lifeforms could do so.

Thus, no one from the Freedom Federation expected Lin Yuan to have discovered the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade's abilities.

Han Qi was not a Creation Master and could not tell what the precious instrument Lin Yuan had taken out was.

When Han Qi realized that this would not be an easy fight, he took off the ring he was wearing and assumed an attacking stance.

However, the Moon Empress and Chef Supreme were stunned because they were very familiar with this precious instrument.

In an instant, they realized why Lin Yuan had said that he had a precious instrument that he must use.

The Jeweled Cave Golden Toad did not have any combat abilities at all. It was purely meant for support.

Clearly, Lin Yuan wanted to store the other two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence in this precious instrument.

He was going to engage in a one-on-three fight.

The giant hourglass in the middle of the stage turned around, signaling the beginning of the battle.

Lin Yuan's eyes turned to the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence next to him, and he said, "Later, the two of you will enter this precious instrument!"

Lin Yuan did not have to say much more, but the two knew his intentions.

It was a fact that the two of them were much weaker than Black. It was possible that the two of them would die from the purple-black dagger at the beginning of the fight.

The members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence had not reached the level where they would be familiar with precious instruments.

The two of them had walked up to the stage and stood resolutely next to Lin Yuan because they were ready to sacrifice themselves for the sake of the Radiance Federation's glory.

At that moment, as the two of them looked at Black's expression, they nodded without hesitation.

Black had taken out this precious weapon because he wanted to protect them. This was the only reason he was using his only chance to use a precious weapon this way.

If the two of them resisted, it would not be helpful in any way, and they might even become Black's burden.

Thus, from the moment the golden hourglass turned around, the two of them immediately entered the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad.

Before Lin Yuan could store away the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad, the amber button on his sleeve fell onto the stage and turned into a pool of quicksand.

It started to produce large amounts of sand.

This was not going to be a survival battle.

Putting aside the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence, Han Qi had understood the Source Sand's function early on.

He knew that the Source Sand needed time to create sand. Thus, Han Qi was not going to give it the time to do so.

Previously, Han Qi wanted to take out the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence as well.

However, only Black was left on stage now.

As such, Han Qi could only target Black.

A purple shadow charged at Black from the moment the hourglass turned around.

This purple shadow did not even give Black time to summon any feys.

Although Black had pulled the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence into the precious instrument swiftly, it still took around one or two seconds.

In a battle between top experts, one or two seconds could make the difference between life and death.

Everyone logged into Star Web was holding their breaths and utterly transfixed.

Despite there clearly being no time, Black sent his left fist flying toward the purple shadow.

1708 The Goddess of Mercy's Heartache!

At that moment, the entire audience on Star Web was wondering the same thing.

What was Black up to!? Why did he use his body to receive the deadly attack? It was common knowledge that spirit qi professionals' bodies were frail. This was a fact that even regular people were aware of.

S-rank spirit qi professionals could use their spiritual power to create a shield. The spirit qi that enveloped the shield would be able to effectively fend off attacks.

Unless they were cornered, S-rank spirit qi professionals would never expose themselves to an attack.

!

It took too much spiritual power to create a shield, and the shield created would be far weaker than that of a defense-type fey.

The shield produced by a pinnacle emperor-class expert that had a Suzerain X/Myth III fey had similar strength to a Suzerain V/Myth I defense-type fey.

It was impossible that Black was an S-rank spirit qi professional, meaning he could not produce the shield of spirit qi.

As such, it was inconceivable for him to have any other method of defense.

The audience did not know if Black's action had been out of panic or if he was truly helpless and was ready to sacrifice his arm to fend off the attack.

However, it was clear that the pinnacle Fantasy purple shadow could not be fended off by an arm.

Even if Black did not die from losing an arm and managed to buy time for himself to summon feys, he would be left crippled.

From then on, his development would be greatly restricted.

However, this horrific outcome did not materialize.

When the purple shadow made contact with Black's fist, a powerful wave exploded outward, sending yellow dust flying all around the stage. Nnêw n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m

Finally, they saw what the purple shadow truly was.

It turned out to be a small purple snake with faint gold patterns on its body.

Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the purple snake.

He found out that it was a wind- and poison-type Diamond X/Fantasy V Nether Bamboo Viper.

Its specialty was that it had a large quantity of powerful venom.

Its nurturing process and method leaned heavily toward speed and strengthening its venom.

If a snake-species fey did not have speed, it would not be able to leap 5,000 meters within one or two seconds.

This speed exceeded that of a Myth Breed avian-type fey.

At this time, the audience on Star Web was utterly despondent.

This was because the light blue snake had not just collided with Black but had unhinged its jaw and bit down on his fist forcefully.

At first, everyone assumed that Black would fly backward after being bitten.

Yet, something astonishing happened instead.

A surge of power flew out from Black's fist and flowed down the snake's jaw into its body.

It threw the light blue snake backward forcefully. When it crashed to the ground, it tumbled for a few rounds before lying in a crumpled heap.

Although it still had its motor functions, it could no longer close its jaws.

This sight made the entire audience on Star Web gasp before cheers erupted.

Peace is Bliss: What's going on with Black? How is his body stronger than a fey's? Is he actually a fey in human form?

Amongst the Stars: This is great! I thought that Black would end up heavily injured! If he was heavily injured from the first round of Capture the General, he wouldn't be able to proceed with the later two rounds!

Lucky Little Panda: None of you is paying attention! The strength of this small snake-species fey lies in its venom. Don't tell me you didn't notice that the snake-species fey bit his fist! He's done for. If both of them are evenly matched in power, the poison-type fey will definitely have the advantage! Even if Black is a fey, he won't be able to survive, much less if he's just a spirit qi professional!

Han Qi sensed the Nether Bamboo Viper's injury and made an estimate of how strong Black's attack had been.

Black's attack had stunned Han Qi.

The attack from Black's fist had been about as strong as an attack from the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Moreover, Black's fist could focus the power on one point.

This was the only explanation for the Nether Bamboo Viper being so grievously injured that it could not even close its mouth.

Although the Nether Bamboo Viper was injured, Han Qi still had a confident smile on his face.

The Nether Bamboo Viper's venom was slow acting. It needed close to an hour to take effect.

The venom would slowly steal a person's five senses before finally affecting their mind. Lastly, the person would become addicted to the venom. As a result, they would be fully under the control of the Nether Bamboo Viper.

Although the supply of venom was not unlimited, the Nether Bamboo Viper just needed to inject more venom into this young man, and he would eventually fall.

According to the rules of the Major Federation Meeting, any participant that had been attacked and could no longer retaliate would become a trophy for the winning side.

Black was about to become Han Qi's trophy.

Han Qi remembered the Goddess of Mercy's interest in Black and decided to gift the obedient Black to her.

She might be so happy that she would give him some sort of reward.

Han Qi was aware of his situation.

As long as he performed during Capture the General and won, there was no doubt that he would become Du Miao's disciple.

If he could obtain some rewards from the Goddess of Mercy on top of it, his power would advance even further.

Then, all that would be left was for him to participate in next year's Freedom Envoy selection.

If he could become a Freedom Envoy as well as a disciple of royalty, he would truly have reached the peak of the Freedom Federation's young generation.

Han Qi was imagining such a blissful outcome for himself and even wanted to curry favor with the Goddess of Mercy.

However, he had no clue that when the Goddess of Mercy saw Lin Yuan's fist bitten by the Nether Bamboo Viper, her brow had furrowed.

No one was more unbothered by taking lives than her. She loved stealing life from bodies with beautiful appearances and turning them into her toys.

But her heart ached when she saw that Black had been injured, and fury bubbled within her.

This was an extremely new and strange feeling to her.

Even after she discovered that Second Page Revival had killed the last of the mermaids and when the Moon Empress killed her sacred source lifeform that had the mermaid bloodline, all she had felt was rage. Her heart had never ached before.

1709 Floating World Ground Ophiuchus

Lin Yuan looked at his fist that had been bitten by the Nether Bamboo Viper and shook it out nonchalantly.

He signed to himself.

The Diamond X/Fantasy V Nether Bamboo Viper truly lives up to being a fey nurtured by one of the Freedom Federation's young elites using top resources. It's completely different from regular Diamond X/Fantasy V feys.

Otherwise, it should not have been able to move after taking an 80% powered Spirit Essence Explosion.

Due to the Spirit Lock spatial zone, the spirit qi in Lin Yuan's body was only becoming increasingly pure.

The might of Spirit Essence Explosion had also increased significantly since the Guard Ye Banquet.

If Lin Yuan used an 80% powered attack to strike a regular Diamond X/Fantasy V fey, it should either be dead or at least crippled into motionlessness.

From his first clash against the purple-haired young man, Lin Yuan realized that he was one of the Freedom Federation's secret weapons.

If that were the case, it meant that the other unknown factor, the white-haired young man, was also one of the Freedom Federation's secret weapons.

As such, Qian Yu, Cai Huo, Yan Ling, You Changjian, and the white-haired young man would make up the best team for the group battle.

Lin Yuan's heart sank when he realized this.

He knew that he had to try to keep his secret weapons under wraps during Capture the General so that he would be able to unleash their full effects during the group battle.

The pinnacle Myth II Vicious Poison Law on the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen's skirt had evolved to Myth III.

Moreover, Lin Yuan had recently absorbed a few World Crystals, and one of them happened to be poison-type.

Thus, Lin Yuan was no longer afraid of venom from any Myth II and below poison-type fey.

According to the benefits he gained from the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen, he was essentially immune to poison.

After being poisoned, the wound should start to swell rapidly.

However, all that happened to Lin Yuan's fist was that a mystical light blue fluid started flowing out of the wound.

The light blue fluid was the venom that the Nether Bamboo Viper had injected into Lin Yuan's body.

When Lin Yuan released the vitality in his body, the wound naturally healed.

The changes to Black's hand shocked the entire audience on Star Web.

The people who were the most stunned were those from veteran and top factions.

The disciples from veteran and top factions had significant experience and rarely encountered anything that left them so shell-shocked.

However, it could not be denied that what they saw was just too stupefying.

Black's punch was extremely similar to the one that Lin Yuan had thrown in his battle against Zong Ze during the Guard Ye Banquet.

There could not be a second person in the Radiance Federation that could use their body to produce such a powerful attack.

Hence, the audience members from veteran and top factions were now certain of Black's true identity.

However, none of them could reveal such information.

When Han Qi realized that Black had thwarted the Nether Bamboo Viper's venom, he saw that light yellow dust had kicked up on the stage.

The stage was made of white jade, so how could there be sand on its surface?

The thought of Black's sand-type source-type lifeform immediately came to his mind.

Han Qi waved his hand, and a 1,000-meter-long giant snake appeared on the stage.

The giant snake immediately twisted its body protectively around Han Qi.

At that moment, three quicksand pools broke through the stage's white jade surface.

They trapped the legs of the two members of the Freedom Federation Sequence and the heavily injured Nether Bamboo Viper.

The sand flowed continuously and was clearly trying to drag its three victims down into the depths of the granules.

Everyone was certain of what would happen once they were dragged beneath the sand.

These two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence had already summoned their main feys and were ready to use all their means.

However, their strongest fey was only Diamond II/Fantasy III.

Compared to the Diamond X/Fantasy V Source Sand that had been nurtured with the best methods, these feys did not stand a chance.

It would be understandable if Han Qi did not protect these two experts.

But if he did nothing while they were in such peril, their deaths would result in the first victory for the Radiance Federation.

Thus, Han Qi needed to save them.

He snarled, "Floating World Ground Ophiuchus, use Ley Line Control!"

The giant snake roared, and an aura of dignity flowed out from it.

This aura made Lin Yuan realize that there was also a bloodline hierarchy which led to natural pressure from the elite on the lower class among snake-species feys.

There were seven elite bloodlines for snake-species feys, and they branched out into the lower-class bloodlines.

The Moon Empress' light green and white snakes had one of the seven elite bloodlines that had then been further evolved.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had the ophiuchus bloodline.

Ophiuchus would be extremely skilled in one element.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus was affiliated with the ground.

When the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus used Ley Line Control, Lin Yuan noticed that the Source Sand's movements became restricted.

It even lost the ability to create more sand from the ground.

This was because the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had become the center of the earth and had taken control of the earth elements in the ground.

However, Han Qi had miscalculated.

The Source Sand could not only create sand from the earth but also generate Close Guard Sand by using up the spiritual power in its body.

Lin Yuan sensed that Han Qi wanted to recall the heavily injured Nether Bamboo Viper.

Behind the silver mask, Lin Yuan's lips curled into a smile as he ordered the Source Sand to use Metal Consume Manifestation to create the Red Lotus Soft Gold.

Immediately, the yellow sand granules turned into red threads.

When the red threads attached themselves to the Nether Bamboo Viper, it let out a horrendous cry. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at nô(v)e(l)bin/.c/o/m Only

From the moment he saw how fast the Nether Bamboo Viper was, Lin Yuan wanted it for himself.

Now, he was going to put his plan into action!

1710 Do As You Please!

After the Source Sand evolved to Diamond X/Fantasy V, Gravel Spirit Acceptance became increasingly stronger.

However, no fey or dimensional lifeform that was suitable for it had appeared yet. Thus, it had been left empty.

As a result, half of the Source Sand's abilities had been locked out.

Nonetheless, there was no helping this.

Lin Yuan had used Gravel Spirit Acceptance on the Heart-Penetrating Ironline. However, it had already been perfectly replaced by the strands formed by the Red Lotus Soft Gold.

Now, Lin Yuan finally found a fey suitable for Gravel Spirit Acceptance in the Diamond X/Fantasy V Nether Bamboo Viper.

The Nether Bamboo Viper was fast enough and had potent venom.

Although Lin Yuan was impervious to the venom, it was strong enough to kill any other fey of the same grade or even Suzerain I feys.

The Nether Bamboo Viper would be able to kill its opponent once it broke through skin.

Lin Yuan really liked the Nether Bamboo Viper's three abilities and exclusive skill.

Snake Body Change Wind would enable the Nether Bamboo Viper to fuse its body with wind. This not only increased its speed but allowed it to hide itself.

Armor-Breaking Venomous Fang would give the Nether Bamboo Viper's fangs the strength to break through armor.

Although the Nether Bamboo Viper's jaw strength was not exceptional and could not cause substantial damage with its bite, its fangs would definitely be strong enough to break through its target's armor to spew venom into its target's body.

Puppet Control used venom to take control of the target's mind.

By continuously injecting more venom into its target's body, it would be able to manipulate the target.

This ability might not make much of a splash in a duel. But in a fight in the wild, any enemy it bit would unconsciously turn into its spy.

The Nether Bamboo Viper's exclusive skill was the one that was most desired by all poison-type snake-species feys—Poison Creeper.

The contaminated entities would become hosts to the venom. As the venom spread throughout the hosts' body, it could be released to contaminate other targets.

Snake-species feys had a special characteristic. For snake-species feys that used venom as their main method of attack, they had much stronger venom than other snake-species feys. For snake-species feys that attacked in groups, the venom they spat out was weaker.

But now, the Nether Bamboo Viper could use Poison Creeper to fight a group without discounting its venom's potency.

It was common knowledge that venom was not contagious.

But in a fight to the death, it would be easy for the Nether Bamboo Viper's venom to spread when its enemies were taking care of their teammates.

When used in conjunction with Puppet Control, it would only need to inject venom into its enemy once, and it would be able to take control of the entire team.

With this set of abilities and exclusive skills, the Nether Bamboo Viper had extremely strong strategic significance.

However, using such a fey in a duel was a waste.

Han Qi noticed that even after the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus used Ley Line Control to take control of the earth's sand, a small number of sand granules were beyond his control.

As such, he immediately knew that these sand granules were the sand-type source-type lifeform's true body.

The Source Sand's real body was attacking the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

As he looked at the two of them doing all they could to parry and fend off the Source Sand, but to no avail, Han Qi was filled with frustration.

Black had used his precious instrument to store away the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. Both of them were still alive.

Thus, although Black was standing alone, he was not losing.

However, once the two members of the Freedom Federation died, they would lose the first round of Capture the General.

Han Qi wanted to save as much of his spiritual power as possible but had no choice but to use some of it to protect these two burdens.

He snarled, "Before the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus appeared, you might think that you could use a sand-type source-type lifeform to do as you please. But now that the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus is here, anything related to the earth falls under the control of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus!"

While he was speaking, Han Qi circulated the spiritual power in his body.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus raised its head and roared again.

The entire ground trembled. It was as though some type of power was reassembling the earth itself.

The entire surface of the white jade stage turned to powder that started to move in a flurry.

At that moment, the Close Guard Sand was 200 meters underground.

The attack that Han Qi instructed the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus to use had perfectly countered the Source Sand. Upd𝒂ted chapters 𝒐n n𝒐

Han Qi stood on the snake and looked down at Lin Yuan with contempt.

Suddenly, a light yet cold voice said, "While you're protecting the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence, are you leaving your feys in the lurch?"

Han Qi had realized that he could not return the Nether Bamboo Viper to his spiritual spatial zone.

In order to save the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence, Han Qi had set the Nether Bamboo Viper aside.

But when he heard what Black said, Han Qi's eyes immediately flew back to the Nether Bamboo Viper.

Han Qi saw that the Nether Bamboo Viper had been wrapped up in a cocoon of red crystal threads.

The Nether Bamboo Viper was stuck in a trap of spiritual torture!

Han Qi instantly recognized the red crystal threads to be the Red Lotus Soft Gold.

How could it be Red Lotus Soft Gold?

After the momentary shock, Han Qi was about to summon another fey to break through the cocoon of Red Lotus Soft Gold.

At this moment, numerous chain blades shot out of the earth and joined together to form a large black box. Then, the cocoon of Red Lotus Soft Gold was sealed within the black box, and tens of black diamond-shaped things flew out of the ground and landed on the black box.

A violent eruption followed immediately after.

An explosion at such close quarters only caused a small dent in the black box.

It should be mentioned that Hu Quan had used radium to construct training rooms for the Mother of Bloodbath and Endless Summer.

1711 White Birds Worshipping!

As long as Myth Breed feys were careful, they could fight in the training rooms without having to be overly cautious.

The fact that the diamond-shaped items could cause a dent in the box made of radium proved that the attacks had been very powerful.

After the earth was reassembled, the Source Sand lost its environmental control.

However, the Close Guard Sand had formed another pool of quicksand and swallowed up the black box.

!

Soon, a restrained roar could be heard from within the whirlpool, and Han Qi fell to one knee on the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' body.

It seemed as though something had shattered in his mind and was causing him unbearable pain.

The link between the Nether Bamboo Viper had fully vanished!

Feys were the bread and butter of spirit qi professionals, so the death of the Nether Bamboo Viper instantly set Han Qi off.

Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

[Fey Name: Floating World Ground Ophiuchus

[Fey Species: Ancient giant snake species/Ophiuchus-species

[Fey Grade: Diamond (10/10)

[Fey Type: Earth

[Fey Quality: Fantasy V

Abilities:

[Diamond Explosion: Compress the ground into earth diamonds. The earth diamonds will explode and cause damage to targets.

[Lonely Snake Pride: When under attack, the heavily injured or cursed Floating World Ground

Ophiuchus will be able to use the vitality in its body to shrink itself and heal its injuries.

[Flowing Sand Magnet: By consuming sand and absorbing the earth-type energy within it, it will be able to increase its power quickly and produce an armor made of sand.

[Queen Snake Guard: Release the three snake eggs within its abdomen. The three snake eggs can absorb earth-elemental energy to hatch into guards that have a similar amount of combat power to the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

[Earth Reassembly: In an instant, all the power in the earth will be gathered together and reallocated to a specific area. It will be able to draw on some of this power to strengthen itself.

[Ophiuchus Mythic Connection: By igniting its own bloodline, it can sacrifice its body and enable itself to break through momentarily. If its contractor sacrifices himself too, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus will be able to break through by an additional level.

Exclusive Skill:

[Ley Line Control: By injecting its own bloodline into the earth, the ley lines underground will turn into a snake. The underground snake will have stronger defensive abilities than the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus itself and completely under the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' control.

[Snake World Floating Life: Open a door to the snake world. Many wild earth-type snakes will emerge through the door. If the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus is protecting something, it will be able to lend its power to these wild snakes.

A look of shock spread across Lin Yuan's face behind his mask. Nnêw n0vel chapters are published on n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m

Lin Yuan was at a loss for words when it came to the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

It could be said that it was the strongest defense-type Fantasy Breed fey that he had ever encountered.

Moreover, its defense came with powerful combat effects as well.

The moving earth had chased the Source Sand into one part of the ground.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had used Earth Reassembly as well as Diamond Explosion.

Lin Yuan felt that Snake World Floating Life suited the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade well.

The wild snakes that would emerge through the door to the snake world could all become either Han Qi's weapons or replenishment.

The most terrifying ability was Ophiuchus Mythic Connection. It would enable the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus to ignite its own bloodline and sacrifice its body in exchange for gaining access to a higher level of power.

If Han Qi was willing to sacrifice his body as well, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus would be able to break through to an even higher level.

If two breakthroughs happened at once, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' power would become the equivalent of a Myth II fey.

This was the amount of power that the Radiance Envoys had.

Lin Yuan did not feel a shred of fear after he saw the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' data because he could also produce the same amount of power using the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen's Sword Skills.

Moreover, the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen had reached 4 Stars and gained new abilities.

The Sacred Sword Wielding Queen's abilities also included support and defense attacks. The sacred sword also had deadly combat abilities.

But just because Lin Yuan was not afraid of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus, it did not mean that Chef Supreme, the Bamboo Monarch, the Moon Empress, and the members of royalty who were Class 4 Creation Masters did not become worried when they learned about the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

Besides the Moon Empress, none of them knew Lin Yuan well.

No matter how strong he was, it seemed impossible for him to take on a Myth II fey.

Being able to fight against a Myth II fey was completely different from being able to produce Myth II power.

An attack of Myth II power only lasted for an instant, while every action of a Myth II fey had the potential to exceed Myth II power.

Lin Yuan had indeed used his sacred source lifeform to produce the power of a Myth Breed fey.

However, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had one of the seven elite bloodlines of snake-species feys.

Feys could roll grades when they reached Myth II.

It seemed as though Lin Yuan was at an advantage after taking out one of Han Qi's feys.

According to the rules of Capture the General, one of the two generals had to die.

This meant that Lin Yuan needed to kill Han Qi in order to win. To do that, he had to first get through the double breakthrough of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

Even an emperor-class expert with a Myth II fey might be forced into a corner if they had to face Han Qi and the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

The Freedom Federation did not feel any concern for Han Qi like the Radiance Federation was feeling for Lin Yuan.

When they saw that the Nether Bamboo Viper had died, bitter smiles spread across Yan Ling, Cai Huo, You Changjian, and Qian Yu's faces.

Lu Ou was the only person who cared about Han Qi and was frowning.

In a fit of explosive rage, Han Qi raised his hand and summoned another fey.

This new fey was just as enormous and had a pair of giant wings to match.

When it roared, the sky darkened, and lightning cracked through the clouds.

After checking this fey's True Data, Lin Yuan waved his hand, and thousands of golden birds flew out of his hand.

At that moment, they seemed to be worshiping him.

Then, three chimes twinkled in the sky.

1712 Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake

When Lin Yuan saw the large golden-winged snake-species fey, he did not need to use True Data to know that the snake-species fey had to have one of the seven elite bloodlines of the snake-species feys.

However, its bloodline was much weaker than the two snakes that pulled the Moon Empress' fey carriage.

Nonetheless, the snake-species fey had almost reached the limit of Fantasy Breed snake-species feys.

The snake was around 500-meters-long, and its body radiated gold and blue.

The golden and blue scales seemed to contain two types of power.

There seemed to be wings growing from its eyelids.

This gave the snake-species fey a sacred and somber aura.

The winged snake raised its tail which clearly resembled that of a rattlesnake.

Its unique tail tip was almost 5-meters-long. Every time the tail tip moved, it produced musical notes that transformed into small snakes that would tunnel into the snake-species fey's head.

The giant wings opened, and it took to the air.

When it pierced through the clouds, the clouds started to thicken, and large droplets of rain descended.

The shower rained down on the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence and Lin Yuan. Gẹtt the l𝒂test 𝒏𝒐v𝒆ls at 𝒏.o/(v)/e/l/bi𝒏.co𝒎

Lin Yuan's hair and clothes became wet, and the droplets that fell on the silver mask flowed down the engravings.

As such, Black looked like a prince strolling in the garden.

The rain did not diminish his aura at all.

However, the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence seemed to be under invisible attacks.

They both squatted on the ground, hugged their heads, and were trembling violently like they were struggling against some type of pain.

The same went for their feys.

The Platinum/Fantasy flood dragon-species fey was thrashing around in agony.

Since the jade ground had been ruined, the rain also turned the ground into sloppy mud.

The silver and white flood dragon-species fey looked more like a loach now. It made for a sorry picture as it rolled around in the mud.

It seemed like the rain was the cause of its incredible pain.

Lin Yuan had also sensed that the rain could cause spiritual damage as Genius' power had been increased to Diamond X/Fantasy V.

Although Genius was not a flood dragon-species fey, the transformations of its bloodline had turned it into the most elite bloodline that Lin Yuan had ever come across.

It was even more elite than Chimey, who had successfully become the Command Phoenix New Day Sparrow.

After the Hundred Questions Beasts were nurtured with pure spirit qi, they became capable of becoming Creation Masters.

All support-type feys dreamed of becoming Creation Masters.

Any fey that had this talent would be seen as even more beloved by nature than Heavenly Family Feys were.

The Diamond X/Fantasy V Genius no longer had any limits to the sea of spiritual power it possessed. It was just as powerful as a pinnacle Myth II spiritual-type fey.

Hence, Genius could use Spiritual Energy Expansion to protect Lin Yuan from this spiritually damaging rain.

Moreover, Lin Yuan had used the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia to cleanse his body of impurities, then again to remove all impurities from his soul.

On top of that, the Earth Center Fine Milk had completely transformed his genetic model.

Now, Lin Yuan was no longer just a spirit qi professional.

Each of the three cleansings had been more painful than the last one.

When he consumed the Earth Center Fine Milk, Lin Yuan had felt all his cells being torn apart and stitched back together again. This cycle of torture had repeated thousands of times.

This pain came from the soul, spirit, and body.

Thus, Lin Yuan would be able to resist this rain even if Genius had not used Spiritual Energy Expansion, albeit it would put a large strain on his spirit.

Nonetheless, he would not be helplessly rolling around on the ground like the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence were.

The giant winged snake continued to maneuver the dark clouds.

At that moment, the audience realized with shock that the dark clouds had formed a dark blue galaxy.

Numerous golden snakes were swimming about in the galaxy, letting out strange cries that emanated restrained power.

When Han Qi saw how composed Lin Yuan remained while standing in the rain, he pressed his lips together in rage.

He had not expected such an outcome.

The rain from his main fey was a lethal blow to any other spirit qi professional.

Han Qi thought, Is it possible that Black has a spiritual-type defense-type fey?

While Han Qi was making guesses about Black, he was completely oblivious to the fact that Lin yuan was using True Data to learn everything about his other main fey.

Water-element energy will gather within the galaxy that can be used to replenish the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake at any time. It can also turn into a shower of rain that causes extreme spiritual damage.

1713 New Day Begins!

Lin Yuan found out from True Data that what was happening to the sky was a result of the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's second exclusive skill Torrential Galaxy.

The small golden snakes swimming in the galaxy were a result of Ringing Tail.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had been a perfect counter for the Source Sand, while Chimey could perfectly counter the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake.

The galaxy was blocking the sun.

Darkening the sky in front of Chimey was just like throwing a black cloth over flames.

No matter how thick the galaxy was, it was still formed from dark clouds.

Even multiple layers of black cloth could easily be burned up by the flames underneath. Diiscover new 𝒔tories at n𝒐ve/lbin.c/o𝒎

Han Qi looked like the king of snakes as he stood on the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus in the midst of the galaxy.

He roared, "Black, you killed one of my main feys and ruined part of my talent. I want you to die! Floating World Ground Ophiuchus, Snake World Floating Life! Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake, Guanyin's Tears! Crush him now!"

The moment Han Qi spoke, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus stabbed its tail into the ground, and many red snake patterns appeared on the snake's body.

The snake patterns rose up into the air and eventually joined together to form a large door.

The moving patterns on the door had a musty, smelly, and sinister aura.

Suddenly, the door cracked open, and many three to four-meter-long black snakes surged out.

Han Qi used the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade to hack about five or six of the snakes to death and recharged the spiritual power in his body to its maximum.

The Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's tail pierced the galaxy, and the rapidly moving snake tail produced a giant whirlpool in the galaxy.

Many golden snake-shaped musical notes emerged from the whirlpool. These snakes were much brawnier than before.

The shower of rain also intensified, and the snakes swam through the rain like golden streaks.

It seemed as though the snake-shaped musical notes could appear anywhere in the rain.

At that moment, the voice that deeply annoyed Han Qi said, "I seem to remember the Freedom Federation calling this a friendly match. The death of your main fey was just the by-product of inevitable accidents that take place during battle. I'm sure you're aware of such a simple principle!"

Lin Yuan's words caused Han Qi to gnash his teeth together, and a grinding sound could be heard.

The Freedom Federation had said the same thing to provide an excuse for themselves.

But before they had the chance to use it, someone else used it on them.

Han Qi saw this as a mockery.

While Lin yuan did not summon any more feys, the rain continued closing in on him.

Han Qi sneered coldly. "I understand. I hope you'll understand too!"

The moment Han Qi spoke, the other voice replied cynically, "Do you really think that you'll be able to win with merely such power? Chimey, it's been dark for too long. It's time to see the sun."

The moment Lin Yuan spoke, a golden bird flew around him.

In an instant, numerous more appeared.

It looked as though the thousands of birds were worshiping their god.

A few of the birds were 10-meter-long golden phoenixes.

These phoenixes led the other birds and seemed to be waiting for their king to arrive.

The one or two lute chimes became more agitated, and the pleasant music slowed the shower of rain.

The snake-shaped musical notes were snatched up by the birds' beaks and quickly crushed.

At that moment, the voice of a young girl sounded out from above Lin Yuan.

Soon, the thousands of birds came together and formed a three-stringed lute, and its neck resembled that of a phoenix.

Presently, there seemed to be a pair of hands gently holding onto the neck of the lute.

The phantom image of a young girl appeared in the air.

Her beauty was indescribable. It was as though the heavens had invested their full attention into shaping her features.

Normally, a person's features seemed to be chiseled with a thousand strokes. But hers had been chiseled by tens of thousands.

She was charming yet gentle, elegant, and energetic.

Her beauty did not pale in comparison at all to the Moon Empress and Goddess of Mercy.

However, the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence and the audience on Star Web were not shocked by this girl's beauty but that she was the spitting image of a Star Web host—Sparrow Loli Voice Goddess!

Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess did not have the same warrior goddess appearance that this girl had. Rather, Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess had been full of the innocence of a princess.

A blue and gold sparrow had appeared in Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess' live-streaming room before.

It turned out that the sparrow was one of Black's feys.

As such, everyone had guessed that Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess had a deep relationship with Black.

That was the only explanation for why one of his feys had appeared with her.

But now, there seemed no need to speculate any further.

Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess was the human form of the sparrow-species fey that was currently flying around him on the Capture the General stage.

Bai Hao was dazed as he stared at the lute-holding phantom image of the girl.

He was a tangle of emotions.

No one knew what was actually going through his mind.

However, Wang Fan noticed that Bai Hao's jaw was tightly clenched.

This was the tell-tale sign that he was nervous or worried.

He realized that Bai Hao was worried for the safety of Black's sparrow-species fey.

Chimey did not give the audience too much time to be shocked by its appearance and identity before it pointed at the sky.

Thousands of rays of sunlight mercilessly cracked through the galaxy.

Less than a minute later, the galaxy and rain were completely dried up.

It was as though the galaxy, rain, and snakes had not appeared at all.

Before Han Qi could react, the young girl said something else.

Everyone watched with shock as the sun in the lute flew out of the lute and rose into the sky.

1714 The Transformed Chimey

The sun that flew out from the lute radiated golden light.

It paused in midair and communicated with the larger actual sun in the distance.

It was as though the smaller sun could lend the power of the sun in the sky. However, Han Qi would never believe this.

If there truly was a fey that could produce its own sun, that would make it even more powerful than a Heavenly Family Fey.

The sun that Chimey produced was very small.

The Moon Empress, Chef Supreme, the Bamboo Monarch, and the Goddess of Mercy noticed that this sun seemed special but did not think much of it.

They focused most of their attention on Chimey.

However, Blood New Moon's heart skipped a beat.

He was a Heavenly Family Fey that was affiliated with the sun. As such, he was sensitive to it.

The Moon Empress might be a Class 6 Creation Master, but Blood New Moon was far more sensitive toward the sun than she was.

Blood New Moon could sense the same source of strength that the natural sun had from the smaller sun that rose from the lute.

This discovery caused Blood New Moon's gaze to lock onto Chimey.

It was no longer a matter of belief.

Chimey had genuinely created a sun.

When the sun that Chimey created rose into the sky, it used Phoenix Breed Input Sound.

Chimey fused the soul seed into the sound birds created from musical notes.

The 18 golden phoenixes cried out in front of Chimey and started flapping their wings as they swarmed toward the snakes that had emerged from the door.

Every phoenix was surrounded by hundreds of sound birds that Chimey's Phoenix Cry had created.

All of them were strong enough to tunnel through a target once they made contact. Even if the target did not die as a result, the target would be subjected to violent and disturbing vibrations.

If the birds were attacked or blocked, they would break apart into even more birds.

Lin Yuan sensed through the golden flying birds that the snakes that had emerged from the door were mostly Gold, Platinum, and Diamond grade.

As he watched the snakes die off, Han Qi knew that he needed to get serious.

Clearly, the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake had been halted by this fey. Thus, the best option for him now would be to attack using the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus.

Han Qi activated the second effect of Snake World Floating Life.

Suddenly, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus lit up with black light.

Its body twisted as it flew into the sky and solidified into a stone tablet.

All of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' power was divided amongst the remaining snakes.

As a result, the snakes immediately evolved to Gold/Fantasy, Platinum/Fantasy, and Diamond/Fantasy. This was a huge leap in power.

The golden birds could no longer do any harm to the snakes. Only the phoenixes were able to continue effectively attacking the snakes.

At first, the snakes that emerged from the door all fought physically.

But now, numerous large snakes with blood patterns all over their bodies emerged from the door. The moment these snakes appeared, they started spewing large amounts of poisonous vapor.

At the same time, a gust of dust kicked up on the stage.

The dust seemed to only have the effect of blocking sight. But, in actuality, they were also very poisonous.

When they made contact with flesh, they were also sharp enough to slice to the bone.

Chimey rarely had the chance to help Lin Yuan out in battle.

After its bloodline transformed, it had never participated in a fight.

Now that a problem was arising in its first fight ever since its bloodline evolved, Chimey used Falling Sky New Day again.

The sun that had risen from the lute crashed onto the stage and turned into a 200-square-meter territory.

There were sun patterns all over the surface of the territory.

When the poisonous dust tried to encroach into this area, it immediately melted.

Falling Sky New Day allowed Chimey to be resistant to most physical and elemental damage.

Chimey had used Double Sun Reins to communicate with the sun in the sky.

It had sung to communicate with the sun in the sky and borrowed a shred of the sun's strength to replenish the territory it had created.

After this, Chimey used New Sun Body.

The phantom image made of musical notes descended to the ground and stepped onto the sun territory.

The light-type musical notes Chimey had used to create the body turned into fire-type musical notes.

Chimey's aura shifted.

Lin Yuan knew that Chimey had changed from the Command Phoenix New Day Sparrow into the Non-Burning Nirvana Sound Sparrow.

The golden birds flying in the air turned crimson.

The crimson birds were like seeds of fire that immediately burned up the snakes they came into contact with but still remained alight afterward.

Soon, a wave of fire crashed over the army of snakes.

Even the large snakes that had only recently emerged from the door were burnt to ashes.

While Chimey had changed its attacking strategy, Han Qi was not standing by and doing nothing.

Han Qi ordered the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus to use Flowing Sand Magnet.

It absorbed a large number of sand granules and raised its aura until a thick armor of sand was formed around its body. Checkk new 𝒏ovel ch𝒂pters at nov𝒆

After covering itself with such a thick layer of protection, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus did not care that the flames were nearing it. The armor of sand would be able to effectively keep the flames away.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus shook its tail, and three eggs rolled out from its body.

The three eggs absorbed the earth-elemental energy from the ground below, and three humanoid snakes with eight arms soon climbed out of the eggs.

Each of the humanoid snakes was holding a black crystal staff. The black crystal looked the same as the diamond bombs that the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had used earlier.

The humanoid snakes had a Diamond X/Fantasy V aura.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus could use this ability to fight four enemies at once.

Although it was not as dynamic as the Mother of Bloodbath's External Blood Bone, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus could still give them simple commands.

The snake guards charged at Chimey.

1715 The Reappearance of the Eight Tails!

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus was enlarging the door to the snake world as more and more wild snakes burst out from it.

The wild snakes all had the ability to produce elemental attacks.

Lin Yuan had already raised his fist to take on the three snake guards.

He used combat skills and fighting strategies that Han Qi could not comprehend to physically clash against the three snake guards.

At the same time, the wild snakes unleashed elemental attacks at Black.

For some reason, Black was also resistant to the elemental damage that would have killed regular B-rank spirit qi professionals countless times.

This was utterly inexplicable to Han Qi.

But at the same time, he realized that just like how the Freedom Federation had prepared secret weapons other than Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian, the same went for the Radiance Federation.

Black was one of the secret weapons that the Radiance Federation had buried.

With Black's crimson bird around, the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake was helpless.

For some reason, the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's water-type elements were useless against this crimson bird.

Han Qi did not want to activate his sacred source lifeform.

He had only managed to obtain this devil from Du Miao after many difficulties and hardships.

If he revealed his secret weapon in the first round of Capture the General, he would not have a chance to use it in a surprise attack against the disciples of the Radiance Federation's royalty and take the opportunity to kill them off.

He had promised Qian Yu that he would definitely be able to kill all three disciples of the Radiance Federation's royalty.

With this thought, Han Qi looked at the sky and issued an instruction to the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake with slight caution, "Use Brahma Sound Sky Temple, then Merciless Guanyin!"

The Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake flapped its wings, let out a terrifying cry, and an image shot out from its tail.

The golden snake patterns flew to the sky and formed the outline of a temple.

A Guanyin with a kind expression appeared in the temple.

The more golden snake patterns appeared, the more tangible the Guanyin became.

Suddenly, the Guanyin's eyes flew open, and its eyes were filled with unending carnage.

The bottle in its hand turned into a long staff.

The enormous Guanyin charged down from the sky and swung its staff down toward Chimey.

This was the strongest attack that the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake could produce. It exceeded Diamond X/Fantasy V power.

At that moment, it seemed that Black was trapped by the three snake guards and would be unable to defend against the descending Guanyin.

The crimson phantom image of the girl was preoccupied with the wild snakes, and it was evident that her spiritual power was waning.

Lin Yuan was well aware that every single one of Chimey's attacks drew on his spiritual power.

There was not much difference between the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus and Chimey's power.

However, it could consume sand to replenish its energy and spirit qi.

Using Snake World Floating Life to open the door to the snake world that released the flood of snakes did not drain much of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' power.

If Chimey had used its most powerful attack from the beginning, Han Qi would have had to reveal more of his special techniques to defend himself.

But in a gridlock, Chimey was clearly no match for Han Qi.

Lin Yuan did not want to waste any more time because he did not want to use the Vitality Imprint and Spirit Qi Imprint against Han Qi.

Hence, he needed to put an end to this battle as soon as possible.

Lin Yuan was powerful enough that he did not need to stall to the second round of Capture the General to kill a member of the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

Before each round of Capture the General began, both sides would be able to make requests.

If Han Qi requested that the spirit qi professionals would not be allowed to use any means to flee, Lin Yuan would not be able to protect the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence from the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' Ophiuchus Mythic Connection.

As such, Lin Yuan planned to finish Capture the General in the first round.

Lin Yuan ordered Genius using his mind, "Genius, use Crowded Cats."

The audience on Star Web abruptly realized that eight beautiful glowing tails had appeared behind Lin Yuan.

Each of the tails was almost 100-meters-long.

The eight tails crisscrossed and headed toward the Merciless Guanyin.

These cat tails greatly resembled the phantom tails that had appeared behind Black during his fight against Lu Shuang.

Black had not summoned any feys and only utilized his feys' abilities himself.

This seemed like a last-ditch struggle. Diiscover new 𝒔tories at n𝒐ve/lbin.c/o𝒎

Everyone was certain that the cat tails would break upon contact with the staff.

However, the seemingly weak cat tails slammed the staff-holding Merciless Guanyin away.

Next, the eight cat tails spread apart in the air like a blooming peony.

Spiritual energy stewed at the center of the tails as though an attack was being prepared.

This was not one of Genius' own attacks.

Rather, Genius had used Crowded Cat to take the attack known as Spiritual Wrecking Silver Bullet from the Silver Crystal Cat Lion.

Genius had used its own spiritual energy to fuel the attack, so this single attack destroyed the Merciless Guanyin.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan increased the power of Spirit Essence Explosion from 80% to 100%.

After a few punches, half of all the three snake guards' arms were crushed.

The two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence were curled up and trembling on the ground.

Despite being part of the most elite experts from the Freedom Federation, they had not readied themselves for the possibility of losing and dying.

The power that Black displayed made the Freedom Hundred Sequence members aware that they would die as scapegoats, regardless of whether Han Qi eventually managed to kill Black.

Han Qi realized that the situation had spiraled out of his control.

He gnashed his teeth, and his eyes changed in an instant.

The whites of his eyes turned black while his pupils turned into white slits. There was restrained purple light within the slits.

Suddenly, the violent rattling of bones could be heard from Han Qi's body.

His skin slowly turned grayish-black and long black horns sprouted from his head.

The horns did not look like that of any other fey.

They were twisted and jutted upward.

These were the trademark horns of the devils from the Freedom Federation's Demon Church.

Two long horns indicated an intermediate devil.

Lin Yuan knew that Han Qi had finally used his true secret weapon.

The real fight to the death was about to begin!

1716 Gold Nether Dream-Weaver!

Lin Yuan weighed his own secret weapons.

His current feys included Genius, Chimey, Red Thorn, the Source Sand, the Ethereal Jellyfish, the Jasmine Lily, Blackie, Purple Afterglow, and Rememberling. Upd𝒂ted chapters 𝒐n n𝒐

Brocade Zither, Silver Corona, Wendy, and Rising Lizard were currently in another dimension or continent. Thus, they could not be activated flippantly.

Lin Yuan did not mind revealing some of his secret weapons during the fight against the Freedom Federation envoy group.

However, this did not mean that he was going to reveal all the secret weapons he had that were of no combat or strategic help.

Examples would be the several thearch-class soldiers that Red Thorn's Tongue of Relinquish controlled and White Speak.

These were also part of Lin Yuan's power. But if he revealed them, it would be too difficult to accept.

It would be impossible for the Freedom Federation's two members of royalty to agree to let him use such power.

Moreover, Blood New Moon had said that two Pages from Tower Canon had arrived at the Radiance Federation.

The strange seed and plant that enabled Red Thorn's Tongue of Relinquish to transform had come from Tower Canon.

There was definitely more to the story than met the eye.

Lin Yuan did not want Tower Canon to see him as a target.

The only feys he could currently use were Genius, Chimey, Red Thorn, and the Source Sand. He had already somewhat used all of them.

However, he had barely utilized Red Thorn and Genius' abilities.

The Moon Empress had told Lin Yuan about the Freedom Federation's devils before.

He knew they were not summoned like the feys with the Barren bloodlines. Rather, they were fused with their contractors to devilfy their contractors and imbue them with the strength of devils.

This was similar to parasitic feys that took hosts.

When he first found out about devils, he had asked the Moon Empress how they were different from feys that could attach themselves to their contractors.

The Moon Empress' answer had been that feys that fused with their contractors could also form contracts with their contractors. In this case, the contractor would be in control.

But when the devils fused with their contractors, the devils would be the ones in control.

Lin Yuan could tell that the Moon Empress was rather wary of devils.

It seemed that the spirit qi professionals who fused with devils would gain a boost in strength.

Lin Yuan was astonished that Han Qi could contract an intermediate devil.

Just like the feys with the Barren bloodline, devils from the Demon Church were rare.

The feys with the Barren bloodline were only fit for members of royalty, their disciples, and Radiance Envoys.

Radiance Knights would only be rewarded with feys with the Barren bloodline if they achieved something great.

Many experts in the Freedom Federation were favored by royalty, so it was unrealistic for all of them to have a devil each.

Only the young experts, who were no different from the disciples of royalty, could be gifted devils.

Possessing the devil proved Han Qi's status.

Devils were even more precious than sacred source lifeforms.

For example, an uncontracted sacred source lifeform could be used as a prize at events such as the Guard Ye Banquet, but a fey with the Barren bloodline never would.

Hence, Han Qi definitely owned a sacred source lifeform.

After weighing his power against Han Qi, Lin Yuan knew that he had to use the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen.

While Han Qi was transforming into a devil, his mind was filled with ways to kill Lin Yuan.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan was trying to come up with a way to win by using another fey instead of the sacred source lifeform.

After their few clashes, Lin Yuan had become familiar with Han Qi's capabilities.

Despite knowing that the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus could use Ophiuchus Mythic Connection and two sacrifices to gain Myth II power, Lin Yuan was not afraid in the slightest.

The Sacred Sword had six Sword Skills.

If Lin Yuan had another day, he would gain the seventh Sword Skill.

Many of the World Crystals came from the Miao family.

In the last blood pact ultimate fight, Miao Zhenshan had been killed by Shadow.

Lin Yuan had not chosen to turn Miao Zhenshan into a puppet because he only had one of the Tongue of Relinquish's tongue tips left and had to save it for a more important target.

Moreover, Lin Yuan had become interested in the spiritual-type Gold Nether Dream-Weaver's World Crystal.

After the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen absorbed this World Crystal with eight Creation World Ley Lines and was only one step from Immortal, Lin Yuan became able to use Sword Skill to produce a full-forced attack of a Myth Breed fey.

If Lin Yuan was willing to use his attack, he would not only be able to defeat the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus that had been strengthened with two sacrifices, but he would even be able to confidently take on Qian Yu.

Since there was no way he could continue to keep the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen hidden, Lin Yuan lifted his hand and a beautiful and ornate sword appeared in his grip.

This was the second time that the Radiance Federation's royalty, Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and the rest were seeing Lin Yuan use his sacred source lifeform.

However, there was no phantom image of a woman behind him like what had occurred during his fight against Zong Ze.

This was likely because there was no reason for Lin Yuan to use the ability related to the phantom image against Han Qi.

During his fight against Lin Yuan, Zong Ze noticed that only the tip of the sword had complex engravings on it.

But now, the sword also had a ribbon tied to it.

The wind was very light and brushed over Lin Yuan's wrist when the wind blew against it.

The ribbon seemed to be flying in a certain pattern that was meant to protect something.

Han Qi's devilification was complete.

Spikes jutted out from his skin and tore through his spirit qi clothes.

Devils and abyss demons shared a great resemblance.

However, the power of abyss demons came from their bodies, while the power that devils used came from a mix of their souls and minds.

Han Qi's legs had changed into five snake tails that were ground and wrapped around each other.

His hands were covered with a layer of grayish-purple scales, while his fingernails were now even sharper and longer than the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Han Qi's eyes were extremely steely as they locked onto Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan used True Data to investigate Han Qi.

To his shock, this was when he realized that True Data could not investigate the devil inside Han Qi.

Morbius also could not check on a fetus within a mother's body, even if labor had already begun.

Thus, Lin Yuan could not check on the devil's attributes.

1717 Vow Circular Snake Ring

Since that was the case, Lin Yuan did not take action immediately.

Han Qi had fully fused with his contracted devil, which bore some resemblance to snakes.

There was no question that Han Qi was very compatible with snake-species feys.

Han Qi was eventually going to utilize its abilities.

!

Lin Yuan planned on seeing the intermediate devil's abilities before deciding which Sword Skill to use.

The different sword skills had different effects. They produced different outcomes when used in different situations.

Han Qi's voice had become difficult to understand and piercing simultaneously. But when one listened closely, it also came off as extremely pleasing to the ear.

It was like the low mumblings of a devil in the dead of night.

"Black, since I'm using my devil, you should use your sacred source lifeform. I had intended on waiting until the third round to kill you. But I've changed my mind. Have you heard that devils can read minds?"

Behind the mask, Lin Yuan's lips curled upward as he said, "The devil has to be capable in order to read minds. But I can already see exactly what you're thinking. You can't avoid the side effects of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' Ophiuchus Mythic Connection. You probably want to avoid using it."

Lin Yuan's words caused Han Qi's expression to change completely.

Even after all that fighting, Han Qi was no closer to figuring out his opponent.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus could naturally counter the sand-type source-type lifeform.

However, the sand-type source-type lifeform could produce metal nets of its own.

Metal-type was not affiliated with earth-type. As such, it was out of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' control.

He had lost the Nether Bamboo Viper in order to protect the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

After the sand-type source-type lifeform could no longer do any more damage, Lin Yuan had instructed it to return under his feet to form a protective strip.

These sand granules were the Source Sand's true body.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus could control the earth-elemental energy that Source Sand manipulated for its attacks. However, it could not control the Source Sand itself.

The Source Sand had helped to defend Lin Yuan against the slicing and explosions produced by the three snake guards' weapons.

Unless the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus continuously used Earth Reassembly, the Source Sand would maintain its protection over Lin Yuan.

However, it took a lot out of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus each time it used Earth Reassembly.

Even if it could replenish itself, Han Qi could not do so flippantly.

Meanwhile, the phantom image of a girl formed from sparrows was still standing next to Black.

However, Han Qi still did not understand this fey, nor had he picked up on what its type was.

Han Qi could not help but feel that this phantom image of a girl was similar to the Merciless Guanyin produced by the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake.

Given the circumstances, it seemed that he still had not even managed to force his opponent to reveal his fey's true form.

Lin Yuan had recalled the eight-tailed cat.

Although the ability had been used by a spirit qi professional, it still managed to destroy the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's full-force attack.

This caused heavy pressure to come crashing down on Han Qi.

Lin Yuan still had not used the plant-type fey that had captivated the entire Radiance Hundred Sequence selection.

Besides this, Lin Yuan had also used an unknown method to investigate Han Qi's feys' abilities.

There was nothing that spirit qi professionals feared more than having their feys' abilities and exclusive skills leaked.

Han Qi did not know if Lin Yuan was able to do this because he was a Class 4 and above Creation Master or because he had the help of a fey.

Regardless, all the sense of security that Han Qi had felt from transforming into a devil vanished.

He shrieked angrily as a means of venting all his perturbations.

Soon, a yellow snake-shaped ring appeared on Han Qi's left ring finger.

Lin Yuan immediately sensed the aura of a sacred source lifeform. He realized that this ring was a sacred source lifeform in the form of an instrument, just like Gao Feng's Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box was.

Lin Yuan checked on the snake-shaped ring and saw that it was called the Vow Circular Snake Ring.

It was dark-type and had the ability Snake Love.

[Snake Love: It will start to love snake-species feys and see them as its wives. In such a state, it can gain the powers and abilities of snake-species feys. The deeper the love, the stronger the transferred abilities will be. The effects will last as long as the love exists.

Lin Yuan could not help but feel rather awkward when he saw the Vow Circular Snake Ring's ability. It seemed rather perverse.

However, it had to be said that it was extremely suitable for Duan He. Upd𝒂ted chapters 𝒐n n𝒐

Even if Duan He could not contract the Vow Circular Snake Ring, he could still significantly increase his power by wielding it.

Moreover, Duan He and Purple Demon were already truly in love with each other.

With the Vow Circular Snake Ring, Purple Demon would not have to worry about Duan He being unfaithful.

The Vow Circular Snake Ring was at pinnacle 3 Stars.

Lin Yuan did not find this to be strange.

Zong Ze's sacred source lifeform had only evolved to 4 Stars a few months ago at the Guard Ye Banquet.

Moreover, every person had a different emphasis when it came to increasing their power.

For example, Lin Yuan still did not consider Shiny to be part of his power because it had only just evolved to Gold grade.

It would be killed the moment it was summoned.

Lin Yuan had not invested resources into his fey with the Barren bloodline because he only wanted to give it the best.

Since it needed dragon liver and phoenix blood, he was only going to feed it the liver of main-dragon-species feys and the blood of main-phoenix-species feys.

Although Lin Yuan did not know what abilities Han Qi's intermediate devil had, Lin Yuan already had a good sense of what Han Qi's secret weapons were.

Sparks erupted from the sword in Lin Yuan's hand.

The sword turned white and lit up with a sacred light in an instant.

An aura much more powerful than that of a Fantasy Breed fey erupted from the stage.

The Goddess of Mercy gasped in shock. "Why does the attack of a pinnacle Myth II fey have the aura of world power?"

1718 Lin Yuan Can't Be Seduced!

The Goddess of Mercy had not spoken softly, so even Han Qi heard her.

The Moon Empress scoffed and said in a low voice, "Consort of Mercy, our young experts are currently in the midst of a battle. Don't assume that you're the only one who can sense the power in their attacks."

The Goddess of Mercy pursed her lips. But she knew that she had been checkmated and did not rebuke the Moon Empress.

She went back to staring at the sword-wielding Black.

The power from one attack was unimportant.

What was important was the extent of an expert's power.

It was too unusual for a pinnacle Myth II fey to have a hint of Creation Breed power.

There was no question that this power would win out if it clashed against regular Myth II power.

After Black's most recent attack, the Goddess of Mercy no longer paid Han Qi even a glance.

At this point, she saw him as nothing more than an eventual ghost and could not be bothered to waste her attention on someone who was about to die.

The Goddess of Mercy's words seemed to be a reminder to Han Qi. But in actuality, it was a charm of death.

After the Goddess of Mercy revealed Black's power, Han Qi would have no choice but to go down the road of sacrificing himself in order to stand a fighting chance. Otherwise, the only thing waiting in his future would be death.

With this thought, Han Qi gnashed his teeth and stared furiously at Black. His eyes were full of scathing resentment.

Given that Black had revealed how the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' Ophiuchus Mythic Connection worked, Han Qi knew that he had to understand its effects.

However, he had used the Vow Circular Snake Ring to absorb his main feys' power into his own body. He could now produce much more power than he could when the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus used Ophiuchus Mythic Connection to raise his power.

After fusing with the Snake Bone Coward Devil, his body had become astonishingly strong.

Previously, it would have been a struggle for him to absorb the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus and Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's power.

But with how strong his body was, he could easily use those two powers.

Han Qi planned on gambling one last time for the chance to live.

In order for the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' power to reach its peak, he also needed to sacrifice his own body. This would enable the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' grade to break through a second time.

Once the ability was used, both he and the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus would end up dead.

However, the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's Winged Snake Mystic Connection would ignite its own bloodline and sacrifice its own body to protect a target.

No matter how much damage the target sustained, all the damage would be taken on by the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake.

Han Qi planned on absorbing the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake so that he would be able to live.

As long as he won Capture the General, even if he ended up a cripple, he would have successfully safeguarded the Freedom Federation's royalty.

At that time, he would definitely receive a hero's treatment. It was even possible that the members of royalty would come up with a way to cure him.

Although Han Qi had already decided to let go of his two snake-species feys, he cast a lingering gaze upon the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus and the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake.

The Vow Circular Snake Ring activated Snake Love.

The Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake and Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' powers flowed into the devilfied Han Qi. Fiind upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐 /m

At the same time, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus used Ophiuchus Mythic Connection while Han Qi sacrificed his body.

Under the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake's Winged Snake Mystic Connection, Han Qi remained unhurt as he continued to stand on the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' back.

The Floating World Ground Ophiuchus and Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake let out agonized cries as their bodies began to slowly disappear.

Their souls also started to burn up and vanish.

Eventually, only Han Qi was left standing as his two giant snake-species feys faded away.

Under such circumstances, Lin Yuan knew that the snake devil that Han Qi fused with had used a special ability.

This was the only way to explain why the Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake and Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' bodies had completely disappeared.

Han Qi raised the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade and swayed forward.

In an instant, the wild snakes were set on fire and killed.

All the vitality and spiritual power that had been in the snakes entered Han Qi's body through the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Suddenly, 13 carriages flew out from Lin Yuan's sword.

The 13 carriages charged at the sky, and 13 glowing female warriors appeared on board.

The armor worn by the female warriors had cloaks of almost 100 meters attached to them.

The carriages flew in a circle, and the female warriors drew out the swords at their hips.

In an instant, rain started falling from the sky.

Lin Yuan raised the Sacred Sword and used his impeccable skills to close in on Han Qi.

Han Qi also whipped his tail and soared at Lin Yuan like an arrow.

Once they were in close quarters, they prepared to fight it out.

Han Qi's gray slit pupils stretched out to the corners of his eyes.

His eyes had been about the size of dates, but they now bulged like eggs.

There was blood within the blackened whites of his eyes, giving him a sinister yet macabre look.

Han Qi's pupils now resembled a twisting female snake that was trying to seduce Lin Yuan.

This was the unique charming aura of a devil, and it should be enough to break even the most resolute of spirits and drag them into the pits of hell where they would be doomed to be nothing more than the playthings of devils.

Han Qi used all of the snake devil's impure power to seduce Lin Yuan and managed to cause Lin Yuan's mind to waver for a moment.

No matter how firm he was, Han Qi's charm and seduction automatically triggered Morbius' Calm Mind.

Morbius was now Gold X/Fantasy V, so Calm Mind could allow Lin Yuan to be immune to most negative effects.

When Morbius had been Silver X/Fantasy V, it had already allowed Lin Yuan to stay conscious while the strange seed invaded his body.

Han Qi assumed that Black would fall under his control and that his movements would eventually become slow.

However, he could not be more wrong!

1719 Appearance of a Beautiful Butterfly!

Lin Yuan did not fall under Han Qi's control, and his speed did not decrease in the slightest.

He used the sacred sword in his hand to clash against the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Han Qi had gone all in.

After he used the Vow Circular Snake Ring to absorb his two snake-species feys and the snake devil to absorb two of his feys' bodies to further increase the strength of his body, any one of his attacks could reach the power of a pinnacle Myth II fey.

!

His body now had the strength of an intermediate devil, on top of that of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus and Brahma Wings Guanyin Snake.

Han Qi thought that all this would give him an advantage over Lin Yuan's sword.

Alas, Lin Yuan's sword was not as simple as he had thought it was.

After their first clash, Han Qi swung his dagger three more times and managed to push Lin Yuan backward.

Yet, he still did not feel like he had the advantage.

Four of the 13 female warriors in the sky flew down with their swords poised to slice down on Han Qi.

Han Qi's sacred source lifeform and the Snake Bone Coward Devil he was fused with were both dark-type. Fiind upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐 /m

Thus, light-type was very effective against him.

Han Qi realized that even when he used the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade to slice apart the female warriors, they would continue to regenerate and attack him until the light-type energy disappeared.

Han Qi counted that he needed to slice the female warriors three times each before they disappeared.

Han Qi realized that four of the female warriors had charged down because he had clashed with Lin Yuan's sword four times.

If he had clashed against Lin Yuan's sword 13 times, all 13 female warriors would have come charging down, and he would have to deal with 13 instead of four female warriors.

At that moment, Lin Yuan advanced on Han Qi again.

Han Qi wanted to use his combat skills to prevent the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade from coming into contact with the sword in Lin Yuan's hands.

However, Lin Yuan saw through his intention and managed to land every attack against the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

All the circling female warriors in the sky flew down.

In an instant, the stage turned into a battleground ruled by the 13 female warriors.

After clashing numerous times, Lin Yuan realized his hands were trembling, and he struggled to hold onto the Sacred Sword.

If the Jasmine Lily was not continuously healing his hand, his bones would have already been crushed to powder after all the clashes with Han Qi.

Lin Yuan knew that he would stand no chance against Han Qi if he used more Sword Skills.

Han Qi's fusion with the devil and the boost of power from Ophiuchus Mythic Connection had time limits.

Every passing second was very precious to Han Qi.

Han Qi was being stalled by the Goddess of War's Protective Attack.

The Goddess of War's Protective Attack was a defense-type Sword Skill. Every time Lin Yuan received an attack during battle, he would earn the help of one goddess of war.

The goddesses of war would not disappear until the energy ran out.

But it went without saying that every attack would diminish some of the light energy within the goddesses of war.

Han Qi had already killed two of the 13 goddesses of war.

The light from their bodies had dimmed.

Meanwhile, Han Qi's attacks had become more brutal and reckless. This was because he knew that he could only be fused with the Snake Bone Coward Devil for three minutes, and the boost from Ophiuchus Mythic Connection would only last around four minutes.

This meant that he had to finish the fight within three minutes.

He could only absorb the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus and use the power of a Myth II fey from Ophiuchus Mythic Connection because he was fused with the Snake Bone Coward Devil fortified his body.

Once he was separated from the Snake Bone Coward Devil, the power of Ophiuchus Mythic Connection would remain in his body and explode him to smithereens from within.

He only had around a minute left.

Han Qi decided to inject 4/5 of the spiritual power he had left into the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Han Qi held the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade at his waist and spun three times.

Three attacks destroyed a few of the goddesses of war.

Han Qi had no idea that while he was fighting the goddesses of war, everyone watching the match had become enraptured by the fey that Lin Yuan had just summoned.

The Goddess of Mercy was extremely drawn to beauty.

There was nothing more beautiful or adorable to her than fairy source-type lifeforms.

Hence, she had spent the last few years creating fairy source-type lifeform toys and hanging them up as windchimes at the entrance of her palace.

But at this moment, the Goddess of Mercy felt that no fairy source-type lifeform could compare to the butterfly flittering next to Lin Yuan.

The butterfly was fully purple, but there was a complexity to the purple. Thousands of shades of purple dyed the body of the butterfly and seemed to produce a kaleidoscope.

Somehow, people felt blessed that this butterfly was willing to fly above them.

The peak of a fey's beauty had to be exemplified by this purple butterfly.

As the butterfly flapped its wings, the scale powder that cascaded down was also utterly breathtaking.

The people on Star Web who paid attention to Black knew that he had the legendary Blue Flash Purple Butterfly.

However, the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly from then was nowhere as stunning as this purple butterfly.

The Blue Flash Purple Butterfly was like a pebble, while this purple butterfly was a priceless jade.

However, it could not be denied that this purple butterfly bore a definite resemblance to the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly that Black had summoned.

They realized that this purple butterfly had to have evolved from the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly.

After summoning Purple Afterglow, Lin Yuan instructed it, "Purple Afterglow, use Silence Scale Powder and both your exclusive skills."

Purple Afterglow flew toward Han Qi.

The audience on Star Web held their breaths as their chests contracted.

Despite Lin Yuan being one of the Radiance Federation's heroes, every audience member wanted to ask why he was sending such a little butterfly into battle.

At that moment, the Radiance Federation's 13 members of royalty, the Goddess of Mercy, Li Yang, Second Page Revival, and Lan Xun narrowed their eyes.

All of them collectively recalled a legend.

But they never expected the legend to turn out to be true.

It seemed that there was no longer any question about the result of the fight.

The audience on Star Web watched as the beautiful butterfly released a shower of purple scale powder.

1720 The Radiance Federation Wins!

The light reflected from the pink and purple scale powder created a cage of soft purple light.

The purple light was so mystical and dreamy that the audience could not help but become mesmerized. It was as though their souls would never be able to escape the spellbinding charm.

Purple Afterglow's ability Silence Scale Powder could release a scale powder with a silencing effect. Targets that came in contact with the scale powder would lose the ability to communicate using spirit qi.

Moreover, it would allow Purple Afterglow to absorb the target's spirit qi.

!

This ability would not have much effect on Han Qi as he did not need to use any abilities now while he was wielding the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Lin Yuan was not hoping for Silence Scale Powder to be able to do any harm to Han Qi.

Purple Afterglow's main lethal attack was Scale Powder Halo.

Scale Powder Halo had strong reflective effects that caused targets to feel dizzy and experience temporary blindness. As such, it was a form of group-controlling ability.

In a blinded state, Han Qi could slash wildly at his surroundings to defend himself.

Lin Yuan had summoned Purple Afterglow because it had gained the ability Soul Beauty Goddess when it evolved to Fantasy Breed.

Purple Afterglow was undeniably gorgeous.

It could activate its spirit and soul power to magnify its beauty to a limitless extent.

This would cause the target to become a helpless lovesick puppy that wanted nothing more than to stick by Purple Afterglow's side forever.

The lovesick targets would want to collect everything that came from Purple Afterglow.

Since the intermediate devil that Han Qi contracted had tried to seduce Lin Yuan, the latter decided to learn from others and apply what he learned to himself.

This would tell all the devils from the Freedom Federation that their seduction abilities were inferior.

The blinded Han Qi slashed haphazardly at his surroundings as he continued to breathe in Purple Afterglow's scale powder.

It was as though the scale powder was Han Qi's most precious treasure, and he wanted nothing more than to take all of it into his body.

The devil within Han Qi's body was also affected.

Under the influence of Purple Afterglow, the devil only struggled for a short period before it started to unconsciously grab as much scale powder as it could as well.

The scale powder accumulated inside the Snake Bone Coward Devil's body and caused it to lose its ability to activate its spiritual power and utilize its abilities.

Before the mesmerized Han Qi could react, his body swelled up and exploded.

A strange creature with sharp spikes protruding from its body and its tail pressed against its punctured neck emerged from Han Qi's body.

This creature had a fearful expression, but its eyes were filled with darkness and cunning.

The aura of wickedness that emanated from its body was extremely disconcerting.

The Snake Bone Coward Devil had been heavily injured after the energy in Han Qi's body exploded.

Normally, Han Qi's death should have resulted in the Snake Bone Coward Devil's death as well. Yet, this had not happened to the Snake Bone Coward Devil.

From this, Lin Yuan realized that the death of a contractor would not result in the death of devils that came from the Demon Church. Rather, they were able to go on living independently.

Lin Yuan dared not make any wild guesses about the Snake Bone Coward Devil before he had the chance to study it carefully.

The Snake Bone Coward Devil was about to flee when a pool of quicksand appeared beneath it and trapped it.

Finally, Lin Yuan could see the Snake Bone Coward Devil's True Data.

He immediately noticed that it was different from that of feys.

A devil's abilities and exclusive skills could only be used when fused with a spirit qi professional.

As such, it was a dependent lifeform.

Han Qi had gained the strength of a Myth II fey because he had been fused with the Snake Bone Coward Devil.

It could be said that a devil could be called an exceptional lifeform.

Even if the Snake Bone Coward Devil was not seriously injured, it still might not stand a chance against the Diamond X/Fantasy V Source Sand.

After all, Lin Yuan had nurtured the Source Sand with only the best.

At the same time that Lin Yuan instructed the Source Sand to form a cage to capture the Snake Bone Coward Devil, Capture the General came to an end due to the death of one side's general.

The two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence had already died in the flurry of Han Qi's blinded attacks.

They were killed without even having the chance to use their powers.

As such, there was no other way to look at the situation other than ironic.

Meanwhile, the audience on Star Web was in a frenzy. Discover 𝒏ew chapters at novelbi𝒏.co𝒎

Although Lin Yuan had not used his full power, it had been an evenly matched fight.

Capture the General had lasted almost 20 minutes.

From this, all the citizens of the Radiance Federation saw how the top young spirit qi professionals fought.

Maple Leaf at the Edge of the World: Black is so strong! What kind of battle was that? It was completely beyond my understanding! He's probably even stronger than the top ten members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence!

Memory in the Wind: Hehe! I'm a member of the Hall of Ten Thousand Generals. Given my understanding of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, no one has as strong combat abilities as Black, with the exception of Liu Jie and Xia Qing!

Tomorrow's Light: Black is the best! I've been a fan of his for so long. Once again, he has become a hero of the Radiance Federation!

Purple Star: Black killed all the participants that the Freedom Federation sent out. Will this lead to a fight?

Black of the Past: Do you really think that the purple-haired boy Black attacked didn't go for the killing blow? If not for Black's power and his resistance to poison, he would have died when the blue snake bit him!

A storm of discussions was ensuing on Star Web. It was filled with overwhelming excitement.

A young man wearing a silver mask had managed to win a battle between the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation.

1721 Special Devil!

In contrast to the cheers and excitement on Star Web, the contestants and members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence who were present live were more shocked and proud of Black's power.

But at this moment, all of them were holding their breaths out of nervousness.

After Capture the General, the group battle would begin.

The contestants and members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence who were present were well aware of the limits of their power. This especially applied to the last ten members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

For example, Li Nao and Zhang Zihao were fully certain that if they had participated, they would have ended up losing their lives, just like the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

Even just the aftereffect ripples from the battle would have been enough to take their lives.

Han Qi had used the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade throughout the fight.

Lin Yuan had requested that only one precious instrument be permitted and had ended up choosing a precious instrument that he used to protect the two participating members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

He was so gentle!

At that moment, Lin Yuan stood tall on the stage. The two suns were shining above his head, and the fiery red phantom image of the girl holding the phoenix lute was standing next to him. The purple butterfly that had mesmerized the entire audience landed on the forehead of Lin Yuan's silver mask.

Before the purple snake devil had been fully restrained, Lin Yuan would not let out the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence until every single shred of danger had been eliminated.

Lin Yuan was fully capable of being called the best of the young generation of the Radiance Federation's experts.

Even when compared to Liu Yifan, Lin Yuan did not pale in comparison at all.

The Moon Empress gazed at Lin Yuan in surprise, as she never imagined that he possessed such power.

She always knew that Lin Yuan was strong. But she never knew just how powerful he actually was.

She had been his master for less than a year.

When he first became her student, he had been a complete rookie who was rendered helpless by even a Platinum fey.

But now, after a few months of growth, he was already standing at the peak of the Radiance Federation's young generation.

In fact, it was not just the Radiance Federation. Even if he was measured up against the entire main world, there was no question that he would continue to shine brightly.

It was difficult to tear one's eyes away from such a radiant individual.

The Moon Empress could sense the other 12 members of royalty looking at her in shock and wonder. They were all trying to figure out how she had nurtured her disciple.

The Moon Empress indeed had many ideas for nurturing Lin Yuan.

But she later realized that Lin Yuan did not like to accept her help. Or rather, Lin Yuan had always managed to be self-sufficient when it came to being a Creation Master.

The Moon Empress had never thought to look into this. Instead, she wanted to help keep up the secrecy for Lin Yuan.

This only cemented the Moon Empress's idea that Lin Yuan was a true hero.

Even if she had not become Lin Yuan's teacher, he would still have managed to advance on his own as long as no one interrupted his journey and he was given enough time to develop and improve himself.

He could have become a member of the Radiance Sequence, then fight for the chance to be a Radiance Envoy two years later.

The Moon Empress' gaze slowly turned from one of a shock to one of pride.

Lan Xun frowned. But, his frown was unrelated to Lin Yuan but fully because of Yin Lin.

He could tell that Yin Lin had been very anxious for Black throughout the battle. When he was attacked, she became livid. When he gained the advantage, she was filled with delight.

It could be said that her mood had been completely dependent on his circumstance on stage.

This baffled Lan Xun.

Suddenly, he remembered the relationship between Yin Lin and the Moon Empress' disciple.

From the moment they arrived at the Radiance Federation, Yin Lin had only been affected by the emotions of two people.

Lan Xun glanced at the Moon Empress and thought, It looks like Black and Lin Yuan are most likely the same person. If that's the case, not only did the Freedom Federation prepare a scheme for the Radiance Federation, but the Radiance Federation has also been setting up for the Freedom Federation's schemes! If I'm right, Yin Lin has effectively slapped the Freedom Federation across the face by inserting herself into this situation.

Lan Xun let out a sigh.

He predicted that a fight would explode between the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation after the group battle was over.

He only hoped that the Azure Federation would stop being involved then.

But judging from Yin Lin's current disposition, was that possible?

Li Yang's brow was tightly knitted. He had never expected such a situation to arise.

Han Qi was never meant to be part of the Freedom Hundred Sequence at all.

Li Yang had arranged with Du Miao a year ago to place Han Qi in the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

Otherwise, there was no need for someone with Han Qi's status to be part of the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

Although Du Miao had not publicly announced that he had accepted Han Qi as his disciple, he had been secretly teaching Han Qi for five years.

Du Miao had lent Han Qi when Li Yang told him his plan.

But now that Han Qi was dead, Li Yang had no clue how he would answer Du Miao when they returned to the Freedom Federation.

Du Miao would probably blow his top when he discovered that five years of hard work had gone down the drain.

The Goddess of Mercy's expression had not changed in the slightest after Han Qi died. It was as though it was not a member of the Freedom Federation's elite who had just lost his life.

She continued to reminisce about the aura that had arisen from Lin Yuan.

Li Yang had been the one who proposed sending an envoy group to the Radiance Federation. She had nothing to do with the plan. Upd𝒂ted chapters 𝒐n n𝒐

She only came to ensure Qian Yu's safety.

But at the same time, another plan took shape in her mind.

If possible, she wanted to take Lin Yuan away from the Radiance Federation and comprehensively investigate his ins and outs to see what it was about him that made her heart skip a beat.

Qian Yu's expression was stormy.

Lin Yuan's power had been too stunning.

Even now, when the fight was over, Lin Yuan was still a mystery to him.

The attack from the eight-tailed cat made Qian Yu's heart quiver and fill up with terror.

That attack had not come from a fey. Rather, Lin Yuan had channeled his fey's ability and used it himself.

As such, the power of the ability had been discounted by at least 30%.

You, Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo were hiding smug smiles.

Han Qi was the same age as them and thus had been their rival.

There was no question that he was going to compete to become a Freedom Envoy or Freedom Knight.

Now, they had one less rival. This was a load of pressure off their shoulders.

The members of the Freedom Federation envoy group had grief written all over their faces.

The only exception was the white-haired young man.

At that moment, Lin Yuan realized that the Snake Bone Coward Devil had transformed.

1722 Four-Wheeled Carriage!

The Snake Bone Coward Devil was merely injured.

Chain blades made of radium appeared on the sand that held onto the Snake Bone Coward Devil's limbs and kept it trapped in the ground.

But in less than three minutes, the Snake Bone Coward Devil's life force suddenly deteriorated.

Lin Yuan had not instructed the Source Sand to attack the Snake Bone Coward Devil. Yet, the Snake Bone Coward Devil died while within the Source Sand's grip.

Lin Yuan's hope of capturing a living devil was now dashed.

The body of the dead Snake Bone Coward Devil slowly turned into a black crystal that resembled an eye.

When the black crystal appeared, greedy expressions appeared on Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's faces.

It seemed that the black crystal was vital to them.

Since the deaths of Han Qi and the two members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence also represented their loss, all the spoils went to the victor, Lin Yuan.

When Lin Yuan was training in the dimensional rift, the Source Sand would automatically help him to collect his spoils.

After breaking out of the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' control, the Source Sand could be fully active again, and it used Close Guard Sand to swallow up all the spoils of the recent battle.

The hand made of Close Guard Sand dragged three pieces of spatial equipment over.

The 5 Stars Demon Lizard Tooth Blade, the 4 Stars Snake Hand Protector, the 4 Stars Terrifying Snake Ring, and the corpse of the 3 Stars Vow Circular Snake Ring were all very valuable and could fetch a significant sum.

This especially applied to 4 Stars precious instruments and 5 Stars precious instruments as they could be counted as the resources that added to the power of a federation.

It took more than a month for a Class 5 Creation Master to create a 4 Stars precious instrument and almost two months for them to create a 5 Stars precious instrument.

These three precious instruments would take up almost four months of a Class 5 Creation Master's time.

Lin Yuan took out an unused Diamond fey storage box in front of the Freedom Federation envoy group and stored away these items before stepping down from the stage.

Besides Lu Ou, no one from the Freedom Federation envoy group felt any sadness over Han Qi's death.

But all of them, including Qian Yu, were staring at Lin Yuan with their jaws tightly clenched. They wanted nothing more than to rip off his head and let all the blood flow out of his body.

Lin Yuan ignored these gazes and strolled down the stage.

When Lin Yuan stepped off the stage, cheers erupted from both Star Web and the people watching the fight in the present.

An He, Zong Ze, Gu Lang, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng knew that Lin Yuan was Black.

The most shocked of them were Zong Ze and An He.

This was because they had fought against Lin Yuan before.

In this fight, Lin Yuan had exhibited a level of power he had not when he fought against Zong Ze at the Guard Ye Banquet and against An He on the island.

When he fought against Zong Ze, he claimed victory using just Night Crow Wither Attack. This also applied when he fought against An He.

He had used Attack of the Sea Leaping Whale when he helped the Mother of Bloodbath awaken its Heavenly Family Fey bloodline.

An He assumed that Attack of the Sea Leaping Whale was the maximum extent of Lin Yuan's power.

Lin Yuan had used his geographical environment to unleash the Attack of the Sea Leaping Whale, so its power reached that of a pinnacle Myth III fey.

At that time, An He fully submitted to Lin Yuan after he used Attack of the Sea Leaping Whale. Fiind upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐 /m

However, Lin Yuan had just used the sword to unleash an attack that neither Zong Ze nor An He had ever seen before.

Both of them suddenly felt that despite their improvements, they were still no match for Lin Yuan.

But at the same time, he was the reason for their power increase.

If not for the Heavenly Maiden Sleet elemental pearl, the Fiery Sky Hou would never have been able to purify its bloodline and take control of the Red Plum Falling Fire.

Without Lin Yuan's 1,000 water- and earth-type elemental pearls, An He would never have been able to purify the Country Governor Kui's bloodline and evolve the Sudden Hibernating Wetland Dragon's bloodline.

When Lin Yuan returned to the team, Liu Jie instinctively took two steps forward until he was standing right in front of Lin Yuan.

Liu Yifan gave Lin Yuan a thumbs up.

His action made the entire audience on Star Web feel that Black had just gained the acknowledgment of a Radiance Envoy.

The people on Star Web who had been guessing what feys Black had were no longer worried once the fight ended.

They sent out endless posts discussing the feys that Black had just exhibited.

After the eight tails appeared, Lu Shuang's live-streaming room erupted with activity again.

However, as a pinnacle king-class expert, Lu Shuang no longer launched into analysis and speculation in order to generate buzz like she used to.

She had been silently praying that Capture the General would have put an end to the grudge between the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation.

There was no question that the group battle would be much more ferocious than Capture the General had been.

It was likely that the fight would not end until one side was completely wiped out.

Meanwhile…

20 people in black armor and wearing rust-colored masks with numbers of them encountered four carriages just as they were about to arrive at the Radiance Federation.

The four carriages were very strange as the four different-colored stone horses at the front were not the ones pulling the carriages.

Rather, four groups of laborers with tortured expressions on their faces were holding up the horses and dragging the carriages forward.

Every carriage exuded a powerful and foreboding aura.

The masked group halted the four carriages.

The leader of the group said icily, "The Four Horsemen of Second Page Warbler Candle. The one riding the green horse is Death, the one riding the black horse is Famine, the one riding the red horse is War, and the one riding the white horse is Disease. A millennium has passed since our last meeting! Are you also headed to the Radiance Federation?"

After being halted, the laborers stopped.

The laborers pulling the green carriage were dead. They were nothing more than walking corpses with burning souls.

All of their bodies were grotesquely pale as cloth strips hung off them. One could only imagine how many disasters they had experienced when they were alive.

The laborers pulling the black carriage were all as thin as toothpicks. Despite being around 1.8 meters tall, none of them weighed more than 25 kilograms. They were essentially bones wrapped up in skin.

The laborers pulling the red carriage were all very muscular. However, all of them were covered in terrible wounds from which blood continued to flow.

1723 The Totem Next to the Saint!

The laborers pulling the white carriage were all riddled with pockmarks and boils, and they were also vomiting continuously.

As a result of these maladies, the air around the laborers was also filled with the stench of decay.

At that moment, the door of the red carriage swung open, and an unseen force pushed a red coffin out.

Once the red coffin was fully out of the carriage, a crack split down the coffin.

"After the battle 3,000 years ago, Tower Canon and Epoch God Palace came to an agreement. We of Tower Canon have kept up our side of the deal by going under the radar for 3,000 years. However, Epoch God Palace has not found the Saint in the past 3,000 years. This threw a wrench into our plans."

The figure who had spoken removed his mask and took a deep breath before spitting in the direction of the red coffin.

A power that seemed to be strong enough to split the ocean into two slammed down on the coffin, producing a dull thud.

"In the past 3,000 years, Tower Canon has not been idle. Even after 3,000 years, the four of you still haven't fully regained your strength. Our team couldn't defeat the four of you when you were at your peak. But now, I will be able to take down four of you just on my own!

"We are going to the Radiance Federation to investigate something. Tower Canon is forbidden from interfering until we're done. Otherwise, the next thing I spit out won't be Class 5 strange water but Class 6 instead!"

Once the man was done speaking, he placed the rust-colored mask back on his face.

The figure within the red coffin did not speak. Fiind upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐 /m

At that moment, the door of the white carriage opened, and a white coffin emerged.

A sinister voice said, "Since that's the case, the four of us will be returning. However, Tower Canon will remember this grudge against Epoch God Palace."

The masked figure replied, "There are countless grudges between Epoch God Palace and Tower Canon. The ones who should be addressing it with Tower Canon are the four palace attendants, not us. If Lord Autumn was the one who had come instead of me, your life would come to an end here!"

The laborers received their orders and started crawling in a semicircle to turn the carriages before they struggled to their feet and dragged the carriages back in the direction they had come from.

All of this caused the purple candle flame that had lit up in the eyes of the young man standing behind the Goddess of Mercy to flicker.

But his expression relaxed a moment later.

It was as though nothing mattered to him.

Autumn 21 was about to lead the team into the Radiance Federation when he suddenly received an order.

A look of disbelief spread across his face, and he said to the other rust-colored mask-wearing men, "Lord Palace Attendant has ordered us to return to the palace. Apparently, the totem in the palace has changed."

Although the rest of the figures wore masks, they all radiated auras of joy and excitement.

They sped off back to the palace even faster than when they came.

…

Four palace attendants were kneeling on the ground of a palace.

Their heads were raised as they looked unblinkingly at the totem in the hall.

Previously, only the Totem God and the Saint appeared on the totem.

But now, there was an eight-tailed cat, a bird with a sun above its head, bone lotus flowers, and a butterfly next to the Saint.

No one knew what was the meaning behind the appearance of these four new images, the meaning behind the images themselves, or why they had appeared next to the Saint.

However, the changes to the totem proved that the Totem God and the Saint definitely existed in the world and that something about them had changed.

The four attendants respectfully kowtowed thrice at the newly appeared totems.

While they were kowtowing, no one noticed that the Saint was now holding a sword with a young girl wrapped around it.

However, this sword was behind the Saint and could only be seen when the palace's light was set to its brightest.

After they left the palace, the only female among the four attendants said, "The change to the Totem God and Saint's totems proves that the disruption of the epoch clock hasn't had any effects. Before the main world becomes truly chaotic, we can continue to wait as per our original plan."

The girl's suggestion received clear agreement from the other three.

She went on to say, "Since the totem has changed, there's no need for us to continue to sleep. After accumulating power for 3,000 years, we can now offer all of it up to the Totem God in the totem!"

The girl returned to her palace and knelt to transfer all the power she had accumulated into the Totem God's totem.

The three of them followed suit.

Meanwhile…

Lin Yuan suddenly felt a burning sensation on his wrist.

Morbius' voice said in his head, "Friend, for some reason, a large amount of power just entered my body. I channeled all of this power into my roots as storage. I don't think I'll need to sleep from now on as long as nothing exceptional happens! I can use this power however I want. There's a lot that I can do with the power of my roots."

Lin Yuan found this strange.

He had always treated Morbius as a fey, but he had never heard of a case where a large amount of power suddenly entered a fey for no reason.

However, this was very beneficial to Morbius, so Lin Yuan did not think much of it.

Lin Yuan planned on returning to the Return from Faraway Mansion after the group battle to have a good talk with Morbius.

Liu Wencheng stood up again and said, "For the first round of Capture the General, the general of the Freedom Federation died, making the Radiance Federation victorious. The group battle shall begin now. Freedom Federation, how would you like to proceed with the group battle?"

According to the rules of the Major Federation Meeting, the side that lost Capture the General could decide how many people participated in the group battle while the winning side decided the rules.

Lin Yuan's victory had given the Radiance Federation the advantage in the group battle.

1724 Impossible to Agree to That Request!

Qian Yu's expression darkened when he heard what Liu Wencheng said.

He shot a fearful glance at Lin Yuan.

He finally realized that there were also formidable opponents in the Radiance Hundred Sequence, just like the Freedom Hundred Sequence.

Han Qi's power was nothing compared to Lu Ou. He was nothing more than an expert that Du Miao had not officially accepted.

!

Moreover, Du Miao had many favored experts and gave out resources to many people.

Hence, even if Han Qi had been accepted as Du Miao's disciple, he would still be the lowest-ranked one.

However, Lu Ou had been accepted to be Na Na's disciple when he was young. There was even a rumor that he was Na Na's biological son.

Na Na showered affection on Lu Ou.

Han Qi only had three precious instruments, but it was likely that Lu Ou had more than ten.

After all, after those three members of royalty, Na Na was most capable of being given the title of Goddess.

Moreover, she was a Class 5 Creation Master.

Qian Yu had known Lu Ou for six years, and he had always been envious of the resources that Lu Ou received.

Moreover, the devil that Lu Ou contracted was not intermediate but higher.

Qian Yu did not know if the Radiance Federation had other hidden weapons in their arsenal besides Lin Yuan.

The Freedom Federation envoy group's most powerful combat power came from Lu Ou, Yan Ling, Cai Huo, You Changjian, and Qian Yu.

Since the Freedom Federation got to decide how many people participated in the group battle, Qian Yu decided to go with five people as it would give them the biggest advantage.

Previously, Qian Yu had been planning on killing all the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

But after the battle between Lin Yuan and Han Qi, Qian Yu became warier.

Without discussing his decision with anyone, Qian Yu said, "Our decision is to send five participants. Since you won Capture the General, we will only be able to oppose one of the three requests you make."

Liu Wencheng did not say anything after Qian Yu announced his decision.

Liu Yifan said, "It's your right to overturn one of our three requests. You don't have to remind us."

Liu Yifan turned to face Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng before his gaze finally landed on Lin Yuan.

As the leader, Liu Yifan had already decided who were the five who were going to participate.

But unlike Qian Yu, Liu Yifan was willing to listen to the input of his teammates.

Li Nao, Zhan Zihao, and the rest all let out sighs of relief when they realized that they would not have to participate. But they were also worried about Liu Yifan, Lin Yuan, and the rest.

Lin Yuan had already released the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence from the Jewelled Cave Golden Toad.

Once they were released, they glanced back at the stage before excitedly bowing to Lin Yuan.

From the moment the two members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence entered the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad, they had been worried about what was going on outside. They had been terrified that Lin Yuan would be unable to fight all three opponents on his own.

But now that they saw him alive, they knew that he had won.

They had bowed to Lin Yuan to thank him for saving their lives.

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before he said to Liu Yifan, "The first request we make should be that precious instruments aren't allowed!"

There would no longer be any need for Lin Yuan to use the Jeweled Cave Golden Toad.

Although he did not understand Liu Yifan, he knew that Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng did not have the habit of using precious instruments.

After all, the education system in the Radiance Federation taught experts to only use precious instruments after they had a fully formed fey system and obtained their sacred source lifeform so that it would align with their team.

Given that Liu Yifan was a Radiance Envoy, he definitely had precious weapons.

But if they had to take on a team where all members had precious weapons while they only had one on their side, there was no question that they would be at a disadvantage.

Hence, they would only have the advantage if they banned the use of precious instruments.

During the previous battle, Han Qi's power had increased by at least 20% when he used the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade.

Moreover, it had also increased his endurance.

If Han Qi did not have the Demon Lizard Tooth Blade and only depended on the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus, he would have been beaten by Chimey.

This battle allowed Lin Yuan to understand how much a spirit qi professional could benefit from wielding a suitable precious instrument.

Liu Yifan nodded when he heard Lin Yuan's suggestion. But, he also furrowed his brow.

He was also aware that the royalty from the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation had different ways of educating their experts.

As such, the best decision for their side would be to ban the use of precious instruments.

However, the Freedom Federation would also be aware of this. Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏.com

Thus, they would very likely use their one veto on this request.

After Liu Yifan voiced his thoughts, Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng's expressions also turned dark.

In the past, Zong Ze would have said, "So what if they have precious instruments? We aren't afraid of them!"

But, he knew that this battle was not only a matter of life and death but also concerned the pride and honor of the Radiance Federation.

But no matter how hard he thought, Zong Ze could not come up with a solution for the problem Liu Yifan brought up.

Previously, Lin Yuan did not understand the Major Federation Meeting's rules of battle.

A smile spread across his face under the mask when he found out that the other side could veto one of their three requests.

According to the report from Yin Lin, one of the Freedom Federation envoy group's secret weapons was the connection between Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms.

With Gao Feng's Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box, their team did not have to worry about this connection between the three sacred source lifeforms.

However, the Freedom Federation envoy group had no clue about this.

The ability of three sacred source lifeforms to become linked was much more powerful than that of a precious weapon.

Zong Ze, Gao Feng, and Liu Jie had not participated yet, so the Freedom Federation did not know much about the three of them.

Hence, they also could not be sure if the Radiance Federation team had any precious instruments.

As such, the Radiance Federation just needed to ban the usage of sacred source lifeforms as their second request. The Freedom Federation would definitely use their one veto to overturn this request.

1725 How Dare You Speak to Me This Way?

Thus, despite knowing that both requests would put them at a disadvantage, they would still choose to veto the second request.

After Lin Yuan brought this up, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng's troubled expressions disappeared.

Although Lin Yuan had used his sacred source lifeform to produce an attack with Myth III power, any sacred source lifeform that had been properly nurtured would be able to roll grades.

Zong Ze's Heaven Crimson Fire had already reached 5 Stars.

!

When the Heaven Crimson Fire summoned the flame angels, the leading flame angel would have Myth III power.

Hence, there would be no need for the Freedom Federation to be so afraid of Lin Yuan's sacred source lifeform that they decided against vetoing the second request.

Frankly, the Radiance Federation did not need anything other than these two requests.

But since they had the chance to make a third request, they were not stupid enough to give it up.

After a discussion between the five of them, they decided to request that each team could choose one member that was forbidden from being attacked. They made this decision in order to protect Gao Feng.

Such a request was often made during the Major Federation Meeting when the team included a member that was pure support-type or healing-type spirit qi professional. As such, it was not out of the ordinary.

After Liu Yifan made these three requests, the expressions of the people on the Freedom Federation side became inexplicable.

After witnessing Black's power, You Changjian, who had been against the idea of dragging in another two disciples of royalty, burst out. "Damn it! The Radiance Federation's first two requests are clearly meant to prevent us from using our full capabilities!

"You watched the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection too. The young man wearing white is the disciple of Cicada Song. He's obviously a support-type spirit qi professional. The third request is also very beneficial for them. From the abilities that Cicada Song's disciple displayed, we won't be able to fight an endurance battle against them if we let them keep the third request.

"I might also be a support-type spirit qi professional, but my skills lie more in control and offense. With the link between my feys and Cai Huo and Yan Ling's feys, we won't have to worry about our own safety at all!"

You Changjian had also said what Yan Ling and Cai Huo were thinking.

The two of them were about to voice their agreement when they saw Qian Yu's expression. They promptly kept their lips sealed.

Qian Yu shot daggers at You Changjian and said, "You Changjian, Li Yang was the one who proposed this battle! The Goddess of Mercy is watching! Are you complaining because you're unhappy with Li Yang? This battle either ends in victory or death. This is the fate for the three of you! Rather than complaining, why don't you spend your time coming up with a way to win?"

Qian Yu's words were logical and backed by facts.

The meaning behind his words pierced through You Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo like a knife.

It was true! If they lost, it would also mean that the three of them were dead.

The three of them knew the relationship between the Goddess of Mercy and Qian Yu. Yôur favorite 𝒏ovels at n/𝒐(v)

They did not know why the Goddess of Mercy was so protective over Qian Yu.

A few months ago, the Freedom Federation held a fight to the death, the prize being a territory in the marsh world.

Qian Yu had represented his family and was about to be killed by a colluded attack from other participants when the Goddess of Mercy appeared to protect him.

For the sake of Qian Yu, she even put pressure on two families that had Freedom Knights.

This incident had spread throughout the top families in the Freedom Federation.

The Goddess of Mercy should not have come to this event.

There was no doubt that she would step in again if Qian Yu was in any danger.

If Na Na allowed Lu Ou to come, she must have given him something to protect his life.

Given the relationship between the Goddess of Mercy and Na Na, the Goddess of Mercy would likely also be willing to protect Lu Ou so that she would be able to ask Na Na for fairy source-type lifeforms in return.

This was why Qian Yu only said that Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian would lose their lives if they lost.

At that moment, a wave of grief washed over the three of them.

However, the grief only existed for a moment before it transformed into an intense fighting spirit.

The three of them could not be certain why Qian Yu and Lu Ou had been chosen by the Goddess of Mercy and Na Na, but the other Freedom Envoys and Freedom Knights had been picked because they had significant potential and managed to prove themselves.

The upcoming battle would be the best chance for the three of them to prove themselves.

If the three of them seized this chance and used the irreplaceable combined power of their sacred source lifeforms, they would definitely secure spots in the next batch of Freedom Envoys or the Freedom Knights, at least.

Moreover, if the three of them performed well, they would have the chance to be picked to become disciples of royalty.

When Cai Huo came to this conclusion, all the fear he felt toward Qian Yu disappeared.

Cai Huo looked at Qian Yu and said, "The three of us will definitely do all we can in the fight, even if it means that we have to use that move! But before we begin, I hope that you will promise to use all your capabilities, even the secret weapons that damage your potential!"

Qian Yu exploded with anger.

He could not believe Cai Huo had said that.

The Goddess of Mercy and Li Yang are watching us. How could I hide anything even if I wanted to? If the other members of royalty and families of the Freedom Federation hear what Cai Huo just said, I'll become a laughingstock!

Moreover, Qian Yu's family was on bad terms with numerous other families. If those families heard this, they would definitely make use of the opportunity to tarnish his reputation.

Qian Yu snarled, "Cai Huo, know your place! How dare you speak to me this way? I am a Freedom Envoy. I don't owe you any assurance."

Qian Yu cast his gaze over You Changjian and Yan Ling before saying loudly to Liu Yifan, "We of the Freedom Federation have decided to veto your second request so both sides will still be able to use sacred source lifeforms!"

Qian Yu's words set Liu Yifan, Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, Gao Feng, and Liu Jie at ease.

Liu Jie placed his hand over his chest. He knew that his duty in this fight would be to protect.

No matter how large the price was, he would protect Lin Yuan.

It was time for him to use his sacred source lifeform! He only hoped Lin Yuan would not blame him after using it.

1726 Are You Worthy?

Liu Jie had put his life on the line for Lin Yuan once.

It happened when the both of them had been sucked into the evolving Class 3 water world dimensional rift and were faced with a powerful enemy.

Although this time it was a group battle with five members, Liu Jie's feelings were the same as then.

Now that Liu Jie was more powerful, he could also perform better than he did last time.

If Lin Yuan was at risk of receiving an attack, Liu Jie hoped that he would be able to use his body to defend Lin Yuan and that the attack would not go through him and end up harming Lin Yuan in any way. Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏.com

Since Qian Yu had vetoed the second request, the first and third requests meant that the use of precious instruments was forbidden, and one person from each team could be chosen as the one that the other team could not direct their attacks at.

"Since we've already made our requests and you've used your veto, each team is given half an hour to prepare as per the rules of the Major Federation Meeting. After the half hour is over, each team will be transported to a random spot," said Liu Yifan.

After he spoke, Liu Yifan led his team to a nearby structure.

This structure was where the teams were supposed to have their meeting before the fight started.

The Spacetime Elder took out two pieces of what looked like shattered shell fragments and handed them to the attendant behind him.

This attendant brought the fragments of the Ethereal Spatial Mother Shellfish's shell with the set destinations over to Qian Yu and said, "These two shell fragments will send you to a designated destination. They will send you to a designated spot in the battleground. For fairness, the Freedom Federation can pick first."

Qian Yu casually picked one of the shell fragments.

The Radiance Federation would not pull any tricks when it came to such things.

Moreover, geography only mattered in individual battles.

Every participant's fey and sacred source lifeform was different in group battles. Thus, they had very different advantageous geography.

A geographical setting that was advantageous for one team member might not also apply to another team member.

After Qian Yu picked one of the shell fragments, he delivered the other one to Lin Yuan's team in the meeting room.

Qian Yu did not immediately lead his team over to the meeting room.

Cai Huo wanted Qian Yu to make that promise because he had decided to go for broke.

But before that, he needed to have the confidence that his teammates would have his back.

What Qian Yu had said was correct.

You Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo did not have powerful support behind them, unlike Qian Yu and Lu Ou, who had members of royalty that would swoop in to save them if they were in any trouble.

Although Cai Huo had not meant any ill intent, Qian Yu had scathingly rebuked him.

Qian Yu had no intention of providing Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian with a safety net.

Although Yan Ling respected Qian Yu, she now looked at Qian Yu in a different light.

What Qian Yu had said about not owing them any assurance struck her especially hard.

His words might have been targeted at Qian Yu, but they also involved You Changjian and You Changjian.

Yan Ling said with a low tone, "I am favored by three members of royalty. No other expert has the favor of more members of royalty than me. Lord Freedom Envoy, I think you should assure us before we go out there and risk our lives.

"Even if I don't link my sacred source lifeform with Cai Huo and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms, my main fey is powerful enough to have a place among the top ten feys possessed by the Freedom Federation's young experts. I want you to give your word."

Yan Ling had also wanted to speak up on behalf of Cai Huo and You Changjian.

If Cai Huo had not angered Qian Yu, Yan Ling might not have said what she just said. She knew that her words would offend Qian Yu. It would do her no good to offend a current Freedom Envoy.

Yan Ling felt that this team was interesting. However, her words were always scathing, and she never held her punches.

In Cai Huo, You Changjian, and Yan Ling's team, Yan Ling's sacred source lifeform had the leading position because she was female and it worked best for their arrangement.

Hence, the two of them were tolerant of her, and their grievances against her had been bubbling up for some time.

Yan Ling's words elevated herself.

She demanded Qian Yu's word on account of her status.

However, she had excluded Cai Huo and You Changjian and placed herself above them.

As such, Cai Huo and You Changjian started looking at her with different gazes.

She would not have been able to attain her current position or gain the favor of so many members of royalty without the two of them.

Naturally, Cai Huo and You Changjian felt that they deserved credit for getting Yan Ling to where she currently was.

Yan Ling's eyes were fixed on Qian Yu, and she had no idea that Cai Huo and You Changjian's gazes on her had changed.

Just as she thought Qian Yu would give in, Qian Yu turned his frigid gaze onto her and spat out. "Yan Ling, you are no different from a clown in my eyes. You're merely part of one of the middle-class branch families of the Yan family. Your original surname wasn't even Yan. You were only allowed to change your surname because your talent was recognized.

"I am the Young Leader of the Qian family. You don't have the right to speak to me based on your family status. Do you think you can compete with me when it comes to talent? Without Cai Huo and You Changjian, your status wouldn't be any higher than that of Han Qi.

"No matter how many members of royalty favor you, none of them accepted you as their disciple. If Cai Huo doesn't have the right to speak to me that way, what makes you think that you can?"

If Qian Yu were in a good mood, he might have agreed to Yan Ling's request to preserve her pride.

Qian Yu also planned on putting his life on the line in the battle.

If he lost, he would either die or be saved by the Goddess of Mercy and lose his position as a Freedom Envoy when he returned, thereby bringing shame to the Qian family.

He still vividly remembered the consequences of his older brother shaming the Qian family.

This was the reason he had flared up when he heard what Cai Huo said.

He had just managed to suppress his rage when Yan Ling said what she had said.

As a result, Qian Yu lost control of his fury and ripped a new one into Yan Ling.

1727 Evolution of Dark Blue's Bloodline!

Qian Yu had only reminded Cai Huo to watch his place. But he had insulted Yan Ling without holding back.

Yan Ling's touchy point had always been the circumstances of her birth. It was the cause of her intense self-inferiority.

This was why she never emphasized with others, and her words were always meant to cut as deep as they could.

She thought that no one would mention her background anymore now that she had the favor of three members of royalty. Alas, Qian Yu just did.

He essentially wiped her out with one blow and left her with her head hanging low.

Yan Ling wanted nothing more than to plunge a knife into Qian Yu.

Qian Yu was an A-rank spirit qi professional. Thus, he was capable of using his spiritual power to put up a block around his words.

Hence, the audience on Star Web was busy wondering why the Freedom Federation envoy group was standing around talking instead of going to the meeting room to discuss their strategy for the upcoming battle.

The upcoming fight would concern the Radiance Federation's glory.

Star Web should be busy excitedly cheering in the aftermath of Lin Yuan and Han Qi's battle. However, they were restraining themselves.

All of them were holding off their cheers until the group battle was over. It went without saying that this was only if their team won.

Lin Yuan's performance during Capture the General had been so outstanding that Lu Shuang and Poison Beauty's live-streaming rooms regained their thrones at the top of the popularity ranking.

Poison Beauty's live-streaming style had always been one that toed the line of inappropriateness.

But now, she had a serious expression on her face with her palms placed together as she said solemnly, "All you know about my main fey. My power is too weak for me to make any useful battle analysis. Why don't all of you pray for the impending group battle together with me? Let's trust the five heroes of the Radiance Federation. Let's believe in Black, Lord Radiance Envoy, Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng!"

Poison Beauty's words stirred up her live-streaming room.

Since these regular people could not participate in such an important fight, they could still help in their own way by praying and giving moral support.

In actuality, they were also participating in the battle.

All their prayers took the form of golden dots that appeared in the shrine in Lin Yuan's soul.

Previously, the shrine in Lin Yuan's soul contained countless golden spots, and he could draw on the faith power whenever he needed it.

But as the number of glowing spots increased, he suddenly realized that the shrine had transformed.

These glowing dots that resembled stars turned into nebulae that swirled around Lin Yuan's willpower. Điscover n𝒆w chapt𝒆rs 𝒐n n0𝒗e(l)bi𝒏.com

As the nebulae circulated around him, Lin Yuan had a sense that his soul was about to transform. But at the same time, it felt as though the change was a long way off.

Dark Blue's bloodline had been purified numerous times after Lin Yuan contracted it.

Its bloodline could be evolved using a large amount of faith power and pure water-elemental energy.

Lin Yuan had fed water-elemental energy from the Element Well to Dark Blue.

There was no purer water-elemental energy than that from the Element Well.

After Dark Blue absorbed it, it experienced significant changes.

Dark Blue gained intelligence when it used its exclusive skill and was in the water.

When it gained intelligence, its bloodline started to become purified.

Lin Yuan noticed that Dark Blue was evolving in the direction of a mermaid.

This was the same form that Lin Yuan took when he fused with Dark Blue.

As the water-elemental energy continued to nourish Dark Blue's body, the strong aura of an elite bloodline appeared.

This aura reminded Lin Yuan of the aura of an Apostle. Yet, it was also more mysterious.

Lin Yuan could not puzzle it out quickly and decided not to dwell on it. He felt that if he fused with Dark Blue, he would be able to receive that elite bloodline, and it was likely that their fused form would also appear very different from before.

Poison Beauty had no idea that by leading the group in prayer, she was helping Lin Yuan greatly.

During the prayer, they started to prioritize Lin Yuan over Liu Yifan unconsciously.

Perhaps it was because Lin Yuan had created too many miracles already, but Poison Beauty believed that he would be able to pull off even more.

Suddenly, an idea popped into Poison Beauty's head.

Black's title had not been decided ever since he became part of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Poison Beauty suddenly felt that the title 'Silver-Faced Miracle suited him very well.

Regardless of whether Lin Yuan eventually removed his mask, his silver mask was already deeply etched into the minds of the masses and was the spark for their passions and joy.

He allowed them to believe that miracles were possible.

Given that Poison Beauty's ability was limited, she could not offer any useful analysis of the battle.

However, the same did not go for Lu Shuang.

She was a pinnacle king-class expert and was only a hair away from becoming an emperor-class expert.

Hence, she had enough power to analyze and provide commentary on the battle between the young experts of the Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation.

She had done so throughout the fight between Lin Yuan and Han Qi. Through her, many people understood what was going on in the battle and did not have to watch blindly.

The comment section of Lu Shuang's live-streaming room was full of people urging her to commentate on the upcoming battle as well.

Lu Shuang was silent for a moment before she said, "It's easy for a Star Web host to analyze a battle. However, I don't know much about the Freedom Federation envoy group or what secret weapons the members of the Radiance Federation's team have.

"The fight is going to need those five Lords to put their lives on the line, and I don't want to overinflate our side. If I do and they win, it will make them seem like bullies. Friends, they are truly going to have to fight to the death. I am going to explain the fight, but I'm not a Creation Master and won't be able to investigate the sacred source lifeforms."

Usually, Lu Shuang did not filter her words when she live-streamed.

But now, every word only fell from her lips after careful consideration, and she could take responsibility for everything she said.

…

Lu Ou looked at the stiff figures of Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian. He touched his white hair and said, "Big Brother Qian Yu, you should give them your word to set their minds at ease!"

After addressing Qian Yu, Lu Ou raised his hand and said, "In this battle, I am going to put my life on the line. I will not hesitate to use whatever means I have, including invoking the devil within my body!"

1728 Pointless Meeting!

After Lu Ou spoke, he placed his hand on his chest.

He was generally expressionless, yet he was now solemnly giving them his word. This immediately filled Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian with warmth.

Given the previous relationship between Qian Yu and You Changjian, Cai Huo, and Yan Ling, it would be difficult for the three of them to truly work together with him.

Moreover, Yan Ling's words had caused a fissure to split the three of them apart.

However, Lu Ou was Na Na's disciple.

A promise from someone of such status set Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Chanjian at complete ease.

So in spite of the cracks, the three of them would give their all in the battle. Otherwise, they would end up losing their lives.

Qian Yu had been enraged by what Yan Ling said to the point he could no longer think straight.

When he first heard what Lu Ou said, he thought that Lu Ou was targeting him.

I'm a Freedom Envoy and the one leading the envoy groups. When did my authority crumble? Lu Ou, you might be Na Na's disciple, but I'm the Goddess of Mercy's one and only favored expert!

Thus, Qian Yu started being treated like the Goddess of Mercy's disciple from the moment he became a Freedom Envoy.

Qian Yu wanted to teach Lu Ou a lesson.

But when he saw Lu Ou raise his hand and make his pledge, Qian Yu felt himself relax.

He knew that Lu Ou was doing this to quell their dispute so they could start preparing for the group battle.

They only had half an hour for their meeting, but their arguments had eaten up 15 of those 30 minutes.

Qian Yu noticed that the Goddess of Mercy and Li Yang were looking at him suspiciously. He immediately realized that if he did not do something soon, Li Yang would fly into a rage.

Li Yang also had another special reason for joining the Freedom Federation envoy group.

If they lost, Li Yang would not be able to fulfill his goal.

It was rumored that Li Yang had even paid a large price to work with Tower Canon just so he could achieve this goal.

If anything went wrong, Qian Yu's life when he returned to the Freedom Federation would be a tough one, even if he had the Goddess of Mercy to support him.

Qian Yu raised his hand and said to Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian, "As a Freedom Envoy, I should set an example. I promise to go all out in the battle, even if it leaves me crippled. Lu Ou has promised to use his devil, and I will also use my Diving Songstress if necessary. All of you know what price has to be paid for me to use the Diving Songstress. Every time I fuse with it, some of the mermaid king bloodline in its body is used up and can only be recovered after a very long time. I think this should be enough to express my sincerity."

When an emperor-class expert used their spiritual power to set up a shield, not even an expert with Eternal feys could break through the shield to listen in to the emperor-class expert's conversation. Finnd 𝒏ew chapters on n𝒐ve/lbi𝒏.com

Li Yang had indeed been looking at Qian Yu and the rest with suspicion. He could not figure out what they were talking about, but it seemed as though a disagreement had broken out.

Were they discussing the upcoming battle?

The Goddess of Mercy looked at Qian Yu coldly. Her eyes were full of killing intent.

It was as though Qian Yu was not her favored expert.

Qian Yu had no idea that after an expert awakened their birth horoscope, they could gain the title of 'God' if they were lucky enough to walk on the heavenly path.

At that time, their spiritual energy would transform.

The Goddess of Mercy called this 'godly knowledge'.

With godly knowledge, the Goddess of Mercy could penetrate the shield of spiritual power set up by an emperor-class spirit qi professional to hear what they were saying.

Only the three 'gods' in the Freedom Federation were aware of this, and they had not told the other members of royalty.

Hence, Li Yang did not know that the Goddess of Mercy had been indifferently listening to the conversation between the five experts.

It was as though the people who were about to compete were not actually part of the Freedom Federation envoy group. It was like she did not care about the Freedom Federation's honor.

Not only did she not step in to stop them, but she even felt that Lu Ou had spoiled the show by ending the dispute.

Only when Qian Yu said he was going to fuse with the Diving Songstress that the Goddess of Mercy's expression abruptly shifted.

She was only interested in Qian Yu because the Diving Songstress had the mermaid bloodline.

Over the last few years, she had put a lot of effort into enabling the Diving Songstress to gain the mermaid king bloodline.

But now, Qian Yu was going to sacrifice the Diving Songstress' mermaid king bloodline.

Once part of the Diving Songstress' mermaid king bloodline was used up, Qian Yu would be unable to evolve its bloodline for a long time while he was waiting for it to recover.

This would postpone the date that the Goddess of Mercy had been looking forward to.

Nonetheless, she did not react even in the end.

All she did was look at Qian Yu with an increasingly cold stare. It was the gaze of a lion that was looking at a disobedient wildebeest that it had been keeping for some time.

She was still a member of the Freedom Federation's royalty.

If she stopped Qian Yu from using the Diving Songstress' bloodline, she would not only be publicly going against the Freedom Federation's benefits but would also reveal her secret to the rest of the Freedom Federation.

It was likely that the Moon Empress had also crossed that line.

This was the only reason she was able to produce the cleansed Eternal Heart.

Hence, the Moon Empress had also heard what Qian Yu said.

It would be bad enough if the rest of the Freedom Federation's royalty and Tower Canon found out.

But if the Radiance Federation also found out about her weakness, it was unlikely that she would be able to save Qian Yu.

Something flashed across the Goddess of Mercy's gaze.

It was easy for experts who could walk down the heavenly path to hide their emotions.

Thus, Qian Yu went on to lead the meeting on battle strategy while being completely ignorant of the fact that he had angered the Goddess of Mercy.

There was nothing much that could be achieved in 15 minutes.

It was not enough time for Qian Yu or Lu Ou to tell Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian about their secret weapons.

Although Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian were always together, they kept some weapons hidden.

As such, the meeting was pointless.

1729 Barren Bloodline, Jay!

Yan Ling, You Changjian, and Cai Huo felt that they were most useful as support. As such, they all wanted to be the person chosen to be protected, as dictated by the third request.

Yan Ling said straightforwardly, "I have always been the decision-maker of our team. This should be enough for me to take that spot!"

Cai Huo said with annoyance, "Yan Ling, I'm stronger than you in terms of support ability. Moreover, Ah Jian is the true support-type spirit qi professional among us. Even if that spot doesn't go to me, it should go to him, not you!"

Cai Huo had thought it through.

He could not reasonably ask for it over You Changjian. In fact, Yan Ling was also a better choice than him.

Thus, he decided to voluntarily back out so that You Changjian could have the spot.

This way, You Changjian would owe him a favor.

Cai Huo felt more comfortable with You Changjian than Yan Ling.

Moreover, he was still smarting from Yan Ling's recent attempt to separate herself from them.

The crack that had arisen from the argument that Lu Ou had squashed flared up again now that they were competing over benefits.

Lu Ou was not skilled at expressing his emotions and had been on good terms with Han Qi. Hence, he was livid about Han Qi's death.

Lu Ou had been displeased with Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian for a long time.

He treated Han Qi as his friend, but the three of them had constantly been ostracizing and mocking him.

Now, they were fighting again.

Lu Ou's eyes suddenly turned blood red.

A crimson tattoo of a devil surfaced on his forehead, and his hair started to turn red as well. His clear voice became low and menacing as he snarled, "The three of you shut up! Otherwise, none of you will be participating! If I consume you, I'll be able to borrow your abilities for a day. That will be enough for this fight! Let me warn you, I'm starving!"

While he spoke, an inhumanly bright red and slightly black tongue slithered out of Lu Ou's mouth and licked his lips.

He cast his eyes at Qian Yu, sending shivers up Qian Yu's spine.

Lu Ou was looking at him like a madman who had just sniffed his first whiff of meat after going without food for a week.

The tattoo on his face had spread to his cheek.

This meant that the bloodline of the devil he had contracted had reached that level.

It was likely that Na Na had given her devil's Seed of Satan to Lu Ou, who absorbed it.

When Qian Yu realized this, his eyes filled with fear and envy.

The Goddess of Mercy did not treat Qian Yu even half as well as how Na Na spoiled Lu Ou.

The Goddess of Mercy also had one of the seven major devils. Yet, she had never offered to give its Seed of Satan to Qian Yu.

She only gave him a seed from an intermediate devil.

Qian Yu was filled with bitterness.

One devil could only consume one Seed of Satan.

Qian Yu felt that there was a chance that the Goddess of Mercy would give him her devil's Seed of Satan in the future.

From the way she treated the other young experts, it was impossible to see her giving the Seed of Satan to anyone else.

Lu Ou released his aura, and Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian immediately fell silent. They even started to tremble.

At that moment, the devil tattoo vanished from Lu Ou's face, and his expression returned to its usual adorable state.

"You Changjian shall get the spot then! He is a pure support-type spirit qi professional who isn't skilled at defense. If he doesn't take the spot, he might not live. This way, he will be able to exhibit his abilities to their greatest extent. Yan Ling, you're a power offense-type spirit qi professional, so all you need to do is your job," said Lu Ou.

Lu Ou turned and said to Qian Yu, "Big Brother Qian Yu, we still have five minutes left. You're the leader, so you should make the arrangements! I will do my best to cooperate."

Qian Yu blinked dazedly.

Arrangements? You've already arranged everything there is to be arranged! What else is there for me to do?

Qian Yu let out a silent sigh. He wished that Freedom Envoy had the same status in the Freedom Federation as Radiance Envoys did in the Radiance Federation.

When the disciples of royalty in the Radiance Federation encountered Radiance Envoys, they always addressed them as 'Lord'.

But when Freedom Envoys encountered disciples of royalty in the Freedom Federation, they might even have to bow in greeting.

In the meeting room of the Radiance Federation's team…

Liu Yifan recalled what An He had said and immediately asked, "I'm sure all of you are already familiar with each others' powers! Little He has told me about it. We only have half an hour. That isn't much time. There definitely isn't enough time for me to get to know all your feys and sacred source lifeforms. Why don't you learn about my main feys, fey with the Barren bloodline, and sacred source lifeform instead?"

With a wave of his hand, Liu Yifan summoned his fey with the Barren bloodline.

Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng never expected Liu Yifan to be so open that he was even willing to reveal his secret weapons. Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏.com

Lin Yuan had heard from An He that his senior brother was a very special defense-type spirit qi professional.

At that time, he had no idea that An He's senior brother was Liu Yifan.

He only found out when he spoke with Zong Ze.

When Liu Yifan waved his hand, Lin Yuan suddenly saw a giant mountain materialize in front of him.

The towering mountain had an ancient aura, and light green peach trees were peppered all over it. Flowers fell in a light rain from the trees.

There was a light green bird about half the size of a grown human resting in the bows of the tallest peach tree.

This light green bird had a body like a white crane but a head like an eagle.

Its tail feathers were not as beautiful as that of a phoenix, but there were 33 of them swaying in the wind.

Lin Yuan was certain that the sight he thought he was admiring was not the result of an illusion ability but had come from an aura.

At that moment, Zong Ze could not help but gasp. "Big Brother Yifan's fey with the Barren bloodline has reached that level!"

1730 Truly Barren and Desolate!

Just like the devils from the Demon Church, the feys from the Barren Mystic Realm were also divided into different ranks of bloodlines.

The Demon Church's devils were divided into lower, intermediate, and higher. The higher devils were also known as the seven major devils.

If the lower devils were properly nurtured, there was the possibility they could evolve into intermediate.

However, it was very rare for an intermediate devil to evolve into a higher devil.

Regardless, nothing was guaranteed. After all, it had happened before.

The feys with the Barren bloodline equivalent to lower devils were the feys with the sham Barren bloodline. Their Barren bloodline was very weak and was almost no different from a regular fey.

However, if they were nurtured and a way was found to trigger their Barren bloodline, they could easily evolve into the feys with the Barren bloodline equivalent of intermediate devils, the feys with the Truly Barren bloodline.

Feys with the Truly Barren bloodline were in a league of their own.

The Fiery Sky Hou and Golden Wings were feys with the Truly Barren bloodline.

Young feys with the Truly Barren bloodline had a high chance of reaching Desolate through evolving their bloodlines.

A feys with the Desolate bloodline had never been produced in the Barren Mystic Realm.

Hence, on the surface, it seemed as though the Barren Mystic Realm was weaker than the Demon Church.

However, this was not actually true.

In all of history, there had only been three cases of intermediate devils transforming into higher devils. Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏.com

Meanwhile, all of the Radiance Federation's royalty's feys with the Barren bloodline had reached the Desolate bloodline.

When they were summoned, they would produce a respective barren imagery.

The barren imagery was the symbol of feys with the Desolate bloodline.

The Freedom Federation's combined power had always been stronger than the Radiance Federation's. Yet, they were always terrified of the Radiance Federation.

This was largely to do with the feys with the Desolate bloodline.

After all, feys with the Desolate bloodline were comparable to Heavenly Family Feys.

Besides the Moon Empress, who somehow managed to gain the loyalty of the Sacred Cry Moon Beast, all the other members of the Radiance Federation's royalty had feys comparable to Heavenly Family Feys.

This was the reason the Freedom Federation had never dared to advance on the Radiance Federation.

Now, this reason was about to be overturned because the fourth 'god' was going to emerge in the Freedom Federation.

However, the Radiance Federation also had the Moon Empress.

As such, the Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation had entered another stalemate.

The light green bird, which looked like a crane and a phoenix, landed on Liu Yifan's shoulder.

Liu Yifan said with a smile, "Little Ze is right. My fey with the Barren bloodline is the Peach Prosperous Jay. It has indeed reached Desolate. However, its bloodline only evolved to Desolate a month ago. Thus, its barren imagery is still rather plain."

Liu Yifan paused for a moment before he said, "Once you become a Radiance Envoy, you'll be given the opportunity to enter the Barren Mystic Realm. Feys with the Truly Barren bloodline will only be able to transform into Desolate there because the outside world lacks the barren aura that exists there."

Zong Ze nodded.

The Fiery Sky Hou had absorbed the Heavenly Maiden Sleet elemental pearl. However, its bloodline never made any advancement from Truly Barren to Desolate.

He had not had the chance to ask Chef Supreme about this.

But now, he learned the reason why.

While Liu Yifan was introducing the Peach Prosper Jay, Lin Yuan used True Data to check on it.

[Fey Name: Peach Prosper Jay

[Fey Species: Jay-main-species/Barren-species

[Fey Grade: Suzerain (10/10)

[Fey Type: Wood/Soul

[Fey Quality: Myth II

Abilities:

[Falling Flowers: Every flower petal that falls from the peach tree will turn into a shield. Once three layers of shields are formed, they will turn into a battle skirt. Ten layers will turn into a miniature Peach Prosper Jay that will protect the target.

[Heartless: When the Peach Prosper Jay becomes heartless against a target, the flower shields, battle skirt, and miniature Peach Prosper Jay will leave the target. The defensive abilities in the shields will turn into healing energy that can be injected into a target.

[Infidelity: If the Peach Prosper Jay becomes unfaithful to a friendly target, the target will enter a state of nostalgia. Once the flower shields, battle skirt, and miniature Peach Prosper Jay shatters, they will turn into spiritual power that is injected into the target.

[Faint Peaches Transform Fairy: When the peach tree is summoned, a young girl dressed in a flower battle skirt will appear. This young girl can use the extending roots to restrain a target. The roots have a strong mincing ability.

[Prosperity Jade Feeding: If the Peach Prosper Jay tosses a peach made of jade at a target, the peach will enable the target to become invincible. As long as the opponent isn't significantly stronger than the Peach Prosper Jay, the invincibility will hold.

[Expansive Water Protection: It will be able to instantly calm water-type energy. When being attacked by water-type energy, it will be able to reflect the attack.

[Elite Guard Return: After consuming the soul of the fey with the Barren bloodline Elite Guard, it is now able to summon the dead Elite Guard in water. Once the Elite Guard appears, it will continuously use Burning Therach Will.

Exclusive Skill:

[Blooming Peach Branches: When the peach tree is under attack, it will swiftly grow out more branches. Each of the newly grown branches will have one peach flower on it. Before the peach flowers on the newly grown branches turn into fruits, the branches' defensive abilities will multiply.

[Peach Gift: The energy from every peach can be transferred to the Peach Prosper Jay. The Peach Prosper Jay can then divide this energy among the miniature Peach Prosper Jays.

[Body Weapon Transformation: The Peach Prosper Jay will choose a target and analyze its special characteristics and weaknesses. A weapon will be produced according to the weakness to make up for it. This will be helpful to the target. The Peach Prosper Jay can also transfer its energy to the target.

After looking through the data, Lin Yuan was not only shocked by how powerful the Peach Prosper Jay was but also became fascinated.

He realized that the Peach Prosper Jay and the Stream Cloud Azure Bird that Chimey had transformed into were very similar.

However, they differed in terms of species.

1731 The Peach Prosper Jay and the Elite Guard!

When Chimey transformed into the Stream Cloud Azure Bird, its species was corvidae species/winged-species.

Hence, its name came from the color of its wings.

Morbius chose to base the name of this fey which was the first of its kind on the color of its wings.

Meanwhile, Liu Yifan's Peach Prosper Jay was jay-species/barren-species.

Normally, a fey's species indicated that this fey was a part of this species. Thus, the Peach Prosperous Jay's name came from its bloodline.

An He had said that his senior brother would be able to take care of both defense and support.

Even without looking at Liu Yifan's other feys and sacred source lifeforms, the Peach Prosperous Jay was enough for Liu Yifan to be convinced that what An He said was true.

Falling Flower was a dynamic defensive ability.

The part of the ability where ten layers of flowers would turn into a miniature Peach Prosper Jay made Falling Flower the most agile and comprehensive defense-type ability that Lin Yuan had ever seen.

Heartless and Infidelity seemed rather complicated on paper. But in actuality, they were healing abilities that could heal injuries and replenish spiritual power, respectively.

With just these two abilities, Liu Yifan would be able to fill the roles of being a healing-type and support-type spirit qi professional.

Faint Peaches Transform Fairy was a group control ability. Its mincing effects were meant to be used on weaker feys. The Peach Prosperous Jay would be able to mince up an army of weaker feys.

This ability would be able to counter the army of insects that Red Thorn and the Insect Queen summoned. Finnd 𝒏ew chapters on n𝒐ve/lbi𝒏.com

Prosperous Jade Feeding was a defense-type ability with strategic significance.

Enabling a target to become invincible would not only allow the target to defend against damage.

Some feys' abilities and exclusive skills came with special effects and curses that would significantly impact targets.

Zong Ze became afflicted with the curse because he did not have such a defensive ability.

If the Peach Prosper Jay had been there to use Prosperous Jade Feeding on Zong Ze, he would have been able to fend off the curse.

It would also be able to defend against Faint Peaches Transform Fairy's mincing effect.

The description for Prosperous Jade Feeding mentioned that the invincibility would be kept up for as long as the opponent was not significantly stronger than the Peach Prosper Jay. What did that mean specifically?

The Peach Prosper Jay was Suzerain X/pinnacle Myth II. To be significantly stronger than that would mean that the fey had to be Sovereign grade.

Once feys reached Sovereign grade, they would have also evolved to Creation Breed.

This meant that the target that the Peach Prosper Jay used Prosperous Jade Feeding on would be protected from all damage below Creation Breed power.

When Liu Yifan first appeared on the rainbow-colored stone pillars, Liu Yifan had seen one of Liu Yifan's main feys, the Yin-Yang Double Instrument Cow.

The Yin-Yang Double Instrument Cow was Diamond X/pinnacle Myth II.

The Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation were always the most powerful competitors at the Major Federation Meeting.

Hence, Lin Yuan could gauge Qian Yu's level from Liu Yifan's power.

There was no doubt that Qian Yu's feys had also reached Suzerain/pinnacle Myth II.

After looking at the data on Liu Yifan's feys, Lin Yuan knew what his goal was now.

Before a spirit qi professional reached S-rank, the power of their feys could reach pinnacle Myth II at most.

Otherwise, Liu Yifan would only need a few Law Crystals to evolve his feys from Myth II to Myth III.

Lin Yuan felt that there was a definite link between the Peach Prosper Jay's Diamond and Suzerain abilities.

According to the ability Elite Guard Return, Lin Yuan knew that the Peach Prosper Jade had once consumed the soul of a fey with the Barren bloodline known as the Elite Guard.

Despite being a wood-type fey, the Peach Prosper Jay had an ability that was linked to water. This did not fit with its type.

Hence, it was likely that this ability was related to the Elite Guard.

However, this did not tell Lin Yuan why the Peach Prosper Jay had ended up consuming the soul of the Elite Guard.

Expansive Water Protection was too targeted and not comprehensive. Lin Yuan saw it as the Peach Prosper Jay's worst ability.

Elite Guard Return would enable the Peach Prosper Jay to summon the Elite Guard.

The Peach Prosper Jay was a defense-type fey with the Barren bloodline, but the Elite Guard was the power offense-type fey with the Barren bloodline.

This ability would enable the Peach Prosper Jay to also hold its own in terms of offense.

When the Elite Guard was summoned, it would continuously use the ability Burning Thearch Will.

Burning Thearch Will would strengthen the strength of fire-type feys while releasing fire at opponents at the same time.

It was very compatible with the Fiery Sky Hou.

Blooming Peach Branches increased the Peach Prosper Jay's defensive abilities.

The Peach Prosper Jay's main defense came from Falling Flowers.

The miniature Peach Prosper Jay would also be formed when the flowers reached ten layers.

It would be easy for an opponent to target the flowers.

Before the flowers turned into fruits, their defensive ability would multiply.

Thus, it would also be difficult for the opponents to destroy the flowers.

Peach Gift was an endurance ability that enabled the Peach Prosper Jade to protect multiple targets.

It could maintain its agility while increasing its defense.

Body Weapon Transformation was extremely similar to Tool Transformation.

However, Body Weapon Transformation was much stronger than Tool Transformation.

Tool Transformation enabled a fey to change into an instrument that could be wielded by a spirit qi professional.

On the other hand, Body Weapon Transformation could be used by others while creating a weapon accordingly to make up for their weakness.

That was not all.

The Peach Prosper Jay could also transfer its spiritual power to the target. This meant that the Peach Prosper Jay would be like a powerful battery of spiritual power.

Before Lin Yuan could continue to marvel at the Peach Prosper Jay, Liu Yifan summoned his sacred source lifeform.

1732 Gem Witch!

A tall girl dressed in a black robe with only half her face exposed appeared next to Liu Yifan.

Lin Yuan was almost 1.81 meters tall, while Liu Yifan was not much taller at 1.82 meters.

The tallest person present was Liu Jie, who was 1.87 meters tall.

However, Liu Jie was a dwarf compared to the robed girl.

The black-robed girl was at least 2.4 meters tall. Explore new 𝒏ovels on n𝒐velbi𝒏.com

The top half of her body was as thin as a matchstick, while the bottom half of her body was bulbous.

The girl's figure was extremely odd.

Normally, people wore black not to draw attention to themselves.

However, the girl's black robe was extremely ostentatious, with gems embedded all over it.

The girl removed the black veil covering her face.

Her black hair ended exactly between where her thin-top half abruptly expanded.

The girl said in a honeyed voice, "Master, I want to eat gems!"

Liu Yifan hurriedly took out a handful of gems and tossed them at the sacred source lifeform.

The sacred source lifeforms happily caught the gems and opened her robe to reveal an exquisite throne.

There were three types of gems embedded into the throne. They were emerald, citrine, and lavender agate,

All three gems were earth-type and naturally produced in the main world.

They were only used in the concoction of Grade 3 and above spirit fluids.

Lin Yuan scrutinized the chair and saw that there were three mouths on it.

The mouths on the chair resembled the girl's mouth but were tens of times bigger.

The sacred source lifeform fed the gems into the mouths according to their type.

Soon, the three mouths let out blood-curdling chewing noises.

The sacred source lifeform had a look of satisfaction on its face.

Lin Yuan immediately realized that this sacred source lifeform was a glutton, just like the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen.

However, it was much cheaper to feed than the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen.

The Sacred Sword Wielding Queen's diet mainly consisted of Law Crystals, World Crystals, Law Source Crystals, and World Source Crystals.

Although Lin Yuan could easily come by Law Source Crystals, they were still much more valuable than emeralds, citrines, and lavender agates.

Thus, Lin Yuan had always held the belief that no sacred source lifeform could beat the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen when it came to gluttony.

When the three mouths stopped chewing, they spat out three small baskets that were filled with the three types of gems that had gone through special craftmanship.

Liu Yifan tossed another handful of gems at the sacred source lifeform and said, "My sacred source lifeform is called the Gem Witch. It is currently 7 Stars and is earth-type. It's a defense-type spirit qi professional."

Liu Yifan shifted his gaze to Zong Ze, Liu Yifan, and Lin Yuan and said, "My position in a team is to be the defense-type spirit qi professional. I can help with support, but I'm not apt at offense. Hence, the three of you will have to be the main attackers during the fight.

"My main feys are the Yin-Yang Two Instrument Cow and the Four-Animal Eight-Trigram Deer. I don't think I have time to show them to you. Their abilities involve defense and support. They can work well with the Peach Prosper Jay. I will use them discreetly during battle."

Liu Yifan spoke with utmost honesty, mentioning both his strengths and shortcomings.

There were only ten of the 30 allocated minutes left.

Since Liu Yifan was not going to use the remaining time to summon his two main feys, it meant that he was going to spend the rest of the time describing the Gem Witch.

Lin Yuan had True Data and did not need Liu Yifan's explanation in order to understand the Gem Witch's three abilities.

[Sacred Source Name: Gem Witch

[Sacred Source Species: Source genus/Sacred Source species

[Sacred Source Star Grade: 7 Stars

[Sacred Source Type: Earth-type

Abilities:

[Emerald's Protection: Pick out one of the emeralds from the basket spat out by the witch. Throw the emerald at a target. When the target is under attack, the emerald will become a shield that sustains the damage and protects the target.

[Citrine's Guide: Pick out one of the citrines from the basket spat out by the witch. Throw the citrine at a target. If the target is dishonest, it will be guided to the truth.

[Lavender Agate's Reconstruction: Pick out one of the lavender agates from the basket spat out by the witch. Throw the lavender agate at a target. If the target is injured, the lavender agate will change to make up for the injured body part. The purple agate will defend the reconstructed part.

Lin Yuan wanted to rejoice when he saw this. He knew Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng well. All three of them excelled in their own ways.

Liu Jie was skilled at formation and group battles, Zong Ze was stronger at individual combat, and Gao Feng's talent lay in support.

Lin Yuan had always been a jack of all trades. However, compared to offense, healing, and support, he was the weakest when it came to defense.

His defense mainly came from the resistance that the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen afforded him, Genius' buffering and reflection of spiritual attacks, and the Source Sand's Close Guard Sand's defense against physical damage.

These three feys' abilities turned Lin Yuan into an iron bucket.

Lin Yuan only needed to use the Source Sand to defend his teammates.

The Source Sand could protect any teammate Lin Yuan wanted from an insect tide.

However, the Source Sand would not be able to use such powerful abilities in the upcoming battle.

When he fought Han Qi, the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus had kept the Source Sand stuck.

The Source Sand could only fight with the Close Guard Sand.

Each time the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus used Earth Reassembly, the Source Sand would be scattered.

It took half a minute for it to regather in the ground that had been under the Floating World Ground Ophiuchus' control.

Hence, Lin Yuan had been worried that his team's defense would be lacking.

1733 Battle Style!

But Liu Yifan's addition made up for this gap. He was the best candidate to protect the team.

Lin Yuan was so confident in Liu Yifan, not just because Liu Yifan was a Radiance Envoy or because of the Peach Prosper Jay. It was actually due to the Gem Witch.

The Gem Witch was a 7 Stars sacred source lifeform with three abilities.

Emerald's Protection would allow the Gem Witch to protect its friends.

The abilities of sacred source lifeforms were akin to truth.

According to the information about Emerald's Protection on True Daya, the emeralds would be able to absorb any damage aimed at a target and become a shield that protected them.

There had to be a limit to the emeralds' absorption of damage.

The more the Gem Witch evolved, the higher the limit would be raised.

In the upcoming battle against the Freedom Federation envoy group, the only person who could stand toe to toe with Liu Yifan was Qian Yu.

This meant that the Gem Witch could use its emeralds to defend against all the attacks from their opponents.

As for Citrine's Guide, it was an ability that a fey should not have.

This ability would be able to accurately judge whether a person was being honest.

There were many different possibilities of untruths.

For example, hypnotism and illusion would also cause a person to be in a dishonest state.

Citrine's Guide would allow a target to make the right decision even if he was immersed in an illusion.

This ability was extremely useful in a team and helped to balance the scales during a fight.

As for Lavender Agate's Reconstruction, Lin Yuan felt that it was overwhelmingly strong.

For example, during the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection, all the contestants' hands and feet had either been exploded apart or crippled by the alien beasts.

If the Gem Witch had tossed one lavender agate at them, it would have fused with their flesh to reconstruct and make up for their lost limb.

This would have allowed the contestants to continue fighting.

Moreover, the reconstructed body part made of lavender agate would have much higher defense abilities than the original body part.

This ability would be invaluable in a battle to the death.

However, it was almost useless in a fight on Star Web because there was no risk of death or injury on Star Web.

However, Lavender Agate Reconstruction would be very useful in the upcoming fight.

The Jasmine Lily had the ability Severed Limbs Growth that could use a target's genetic model to regrow their injured or missing body part.

It was much better than Lavender Agate Reconstruction because the body part reconstructed with lavender agate would disappear after the battle.

On the other hand, the limb regrown by Severed Limbs Growth would be permanent.

However, compared to Lavender Agate Reconstruction, it took a lot more vitality for the Jasmine Lily to heal a fey.

As such, it was much easier for the Gem Witch to use Lavender Agate Reconstruction to reconstruct the body part of a fey.

The Freedom Federation's choice of having five participants worked out perfectly for the Radiance Federation.

Zong Ze and Liu Jie were power offense-type spirit qi professionals who could take care of attacking.

Liu Yifan was a defense-type spirit qi professional who would take care of protecting them.

Gao Feng was a support-type spirit qi professional and would be in charge of providing support.

Lin Yuan planned on returning to his original healing-type spirit qi professional role.

When Lin Yuan registered Black's identity, he had just contracted the Jasmine Lily.

Chimey and Genius were still completely unable to fight.

At that time, Lin Yuan had truly been a healing-type spirit qi professional.

Lin Yuan's combat ability now went far beyond healing. Tôp 𝒏𝒐v𝒆l updates on n/(o)/v/𝒆

But even with just the abilities Heal and Severed Limbs Growth, the Jasmine Lily was already much stronger than most healing-type feys.

Moreover, Lin Yuan's Sacred Sword also had the healing-type Sword Skill from the Sacred Cure White Deer's World Crystal.

When Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the Gem Witch, Liu Yifan told Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng about the Gem Witch's abilities.

After they learned about the Peach Prosper Jay and Gem Witch's abilities, the three of them started to think.

At that moment, Liu Yifan said, "Black, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, the three of you will be the main attackers. What are your strategies for the fight?"

As a Radiance Envoy, Liu Yifan had the authority to issue orders to the team.

However, he did not do so and was asking for Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, and Liu Jie's input because he did not understand their feys.

Moreover, in a fight to the death, a team needed to have sufficient offensive ability.

They would not be able to win by only defending themselves.

Hence, it was usually the power offense-type spirit qi professionals who gave orders to a team to organize the attack.

Liu Yifan had not hesitated to give up his authority.

In the short span of half an hour, Lin Yuan came to understand what kind of person Liu Yifan was.

Lin Yuan immediately answered, "Liu Jie and I are skilled at formation battles. My Source Sand can work with Liu Jie's insect army. If I summon the sea of flowers, it will definitely be able to restrict our opponents and give us enough ground to work with. Thus, I suggest we stand our ground wherever we are transported and immediately start setting up our formations.

"Liu Jie's Hurricane Owlet Moths will take the sky, while my Source Sand will take the ground. This will enable us to effectively scout out our surroundings."

In the case of the insect army, they only needed to focus on their center.

It did not matter which direction the enemy came from because the insect army would consume them all.

1734 Enter the Battle!

Even if they ended up building their defenses in the wrong direction, the insect army was mobile and could adjust in a few seconds.

When Gao Feng heard what Lin Yuan said, his eyes lit up. "When the Breeze Hibiscus and Spirit Spring Lilies are in a designated spot, the Breeze Hibiscus can manipulate air currents to recover the Spirit Spring Lilies' spiritual power. This will help the Spirit Spring Lilies to gather spiritual power even faster. I can support Liu Jie and Black by recovering their spiritual power. This will allow them to unleash their formations to the full extent."

Lin Yuan shook his head and said to Gao Feng, "I will have more than enough spiritual power for myself during the battle. You don't need to worry about me. Give all the spiritual power to Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and Big Brother Liu Yifan!"

Lin Yuan had already decided to use the Vitality Imprint and Spirit Qi Imprint during the battle.

He realized during his fight against Han Qi that the Freedom Federation had come prepared.

Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian had clearly felt fear toward the white-haired young man while they were watching Capture the General.

The other members of the Freedom Hundred Sequence had also kept their distance from him.

It was evident that this white-haired young man held significant status. He had to also be one of the Freedom Federation's secret weapons.

Hence, in an important battle like this between two large federations, Lin Yuan was ready to use his secret weapons accordingly.

But it went without saying that he would not be revealing Di Wanmi, Dark Blue, and White Speak.

These secret weapons were too monumental. Revealing them would not only result in people realizing that there was something out of the ordinary about Red Thorn but Lin Yuan as well.

It would not be too bad if the Radiance Federation's royalty found out about these secret weapons.

However, Lin Yuan could not reveal them while the people from the Freedom Federation were present.

Red Thorn's mutation had come from swallowing the strange seed and ramet.

After looking into Whale Ocean Commerce, Lin Yuan knew that everything had been connected to Tower Canon. RE𝒂ad updated st𝒐ries at n/𝒐

Two of Tower Canon's eight Pages had also arrived at the Radiance Federation.

If people from the Tower Canon singled him out, Lin Yuan would be putting himself in danger.

Moreover, the battle would become meaningless if he summoned his thearch-class soldier and White Speak. The Freedom Federation's royalty would definitely put a stop to the fight.

He would only be able to keep the Freedom Federation's royalty from putting up any protest if he killed the other team by using the power that an expert of his age should reasonably possess.

Lin Yuan's words shocked Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng. They immediately realized that Lin Yuan was able to restore his spiritual power.

In the fight between Zong Ze and Lin Yuan, Zong Ze had noticed Lin Yuan had a shockingly high store of spirit qi.

Zong Ze had also sensed that Lin Yuan was merely a B-rank spirit qi professional. Yet, even after Zong Ze used up all the spiritual power in his body, Lin Yuan continued to draw on large amounts of spiritual power.

Liu Jie planned on showing the fruits of his past six months of hard work in the battle.

As such, he said to Gao Feng, "Gao Feng, once we enter, send me spiritual power first. I need spirit qi to produce insect-species carcinoma feys. I will be using many different types of insect-species carcinoma feys in the fight."

Gao Feng and Zong Ze had seen how Liu Jie commandeered insect-species carcinoma feys at the Guard Ye Banquet.

The insect-species carcinoma feys need a large space to exhibit their full power.

Hence, Liu Jie had been restricted with his usage of the insect-species carcinoma feys on the Martial Stage.

Yet, he still managed to defeat his opponent.

Liu Yifan already noticed that Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng were very close, but Lin Yuan was the one who called the shots.

Thus, Liu Yifan said to Lin Yuan, "Why don't you give the orders during the fight? I will do my best to protect all of you. You can trust me on this. I might not be familiar with your sacred source lifeforms, but I will do my best to familiarize myself with them as quickly as possible during the fight."

Lin Yuan did not stand on ceremony and immediately took over the duty of giving orders.

"Big Brother Liu Yifan, I won't give you orders during the fight. You can just protect us just like you said!"

The Radiance Federation team had decided who was going to lead them and how they were going to proceed with the fight.

The entire audience on Star Web and the 13 members of the Radiance Federation's royalty all had austere expressions.

In just one minute, the half an hour allocated for the battle preparation meeting would be over.

The ten people from both teams were going to be sent to random destinations in the battleground, and the carnage would begin.

None of the people on Star Web felt that the carnage would be allowed to be broadcast on Star Web. However, the members of royalty had decided to do exactly that.

The opening of the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift and the two-year bet between the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation allowed many spirit qi professionals and regular people to understand something.

Many of the spirit qi professionals who had not been willing to go to the abyssal world to train all went to sign up.

They decided that they would also go and train themselves with fire and blood so they would be able to protect themselves and the Radiance Federation in the messy world.

Suddenly, the two shell fragments opened a door in each of the meeting rooms.

The two teams immediately stepped through the doors.

Both teams knew that reaching the battleground first, no matter what battle style they planned to use, would enable them to gain the upper ground.

The battleground had an area of ten square kilometers. This was extremely large for a fight that involved ten men.

There were over ten types of geographical formations and six types of climates encompassed in this ten square kilometers.

Every type of geographical formation and climate would be beneficial to certain feys. As such, they would greatly influence the battle circumstance.

Lin Yuan, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng were transported to a hilly region.

The hilly region was the most disadvantageous type of geographical phenomenon.

1735 Liu Jie's Power!

Firstly, hills would block sight. Secondly, they would greatly restrict the movement of large feys.

However, these were not problems for Lin Yuan because the Source Sand could break through the hills and take control of the granules.

These granules would be even stronger than regular gravel.

Lin Yuan shook his hand, and the amber-button-shaped Source Sand landed by his feet.

The Source Sand changed back into its original form and tunneled underground.

Liu Jie raised his hand and used Spirit Injection on himself and Liu Jie.

He injected a large amount of spiritual power into the Source Sand to enable it to rapidly crush the rocks in the surroundings to generate sand.

In less than a minute, the area in a 2,000-square-meter radius turned into a sandy landscape.

Lin Yuan had worked with Liu Jie before.

Sand was the best cover for insect colonies.

Gao Feng summoned the Breeze Hibiscus and two Spirit Spring Lilies.

The Breeze Hibiscus enabled all the spiritual power in the surroundings to gather at the Spirit Spring Lilies.

The flowers blooming on the Spirit Spring Lilies started spewing out streams that landed on Liu Jie.

A moment later, Liu Jie sensed the overwhelming spiritual power from the streams.

Liu Jie snapped his fingers, and the Dimensional Light Moth instantly appeared next to his head.

The Dimensional Light Moth flew lower and hid behind two rocks that Lin Yuan had intentionally left untouched.

Many Flesh-Mincing Blade Insects, Lightning Gathering Moths, Plasma Caterpillars, and Hurricane Owlet Moths were produced. Yôur favorite 𝒏ovels at n/𝒐(v)

The Hurricane Owlet Moths were all the improved versions.

Their large pairs of wings allowed them to fly as swiftly as the Bronze Divine Travel Black Swallow.

The Hurricane Owlet Moths scattered like snowflakes to scout out the location of the Freedom Federation team.

As Liu Jie continued to use more spiritual power, Gao Feng even had to direct some of the spiritual power from the Spirit Spring Lilies at himself.

Gao Feng had given most of his spiritual power to Liu Jie in an instant to enable the latter to produce as large of an army as he wanted.

Insects continued to pour out of the Dimensional Light Moth for eight minutes.

Gao Feng, Zong Ze, and Liu Yifan knew that Liu Jie could produce many types of insects, but they did not know what the exact number was.

On the other hand, Lin Yuan and Liu Jie were aware of the exact number.

The Source Sand produced tunnel after tunnel in the sand underground.

All of these tunnels were filled to the brim with the Flesh-Mincing Blade Insects.

The Source Sand also dug out two spaces that were 600 square meters large each.

One space contained the Plasma Caterpillars, while the other contained the Lightning Gathering Moths. Both groups of insects continuously produced powerful plasma bombs.

Lin Yuan sensed that Gao Feng was faltering, so he raised his hand and used Spirit Injection on Gao Feng.

Blackie had reached Diamond X/Fantasy V.

Spirit Injection replenished all of the spiritual power that Gao Feng had used up.

Liu Yifan had not summoned the Yin-Yang Double Instrument Cow or the Four-Animal Eight-Trigram Deer.

He had only summoned the Peach Prosper Jay so far.

Numerous peach trees sprouted from the sea of sand.

When they first appeared, the peach trees were all bare.

However, they rapidly started to grow leaves.

Once the trees were covered with a significant thickness of foliage, light green peach flowers grew from between the leaves.

Liu Yifan did not choose to turn the flowers into fruits. Rather, he decided to let the flowers fall instead.

The flowers started showering down on Liu Yifan, Gao Feng, Black, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and the Dimensional Light Moth.

As more and more flowers fell on them, light green peach flower imprints appeared on their bodies.

Soon, a battle skirt with patterns of peach trees and jays appeared on them.

Eventually, miniature Peach Prosper Jays appeared next to each of them.

When the miniature Peach Prosper Jays appeared, Liu Yifan instructed the Peach Prosper Jay to stop the trees from dropping flowers.

Instead, he started turning the flowers into fruits to prepare for the battle.

When Liu Jie felt that the Insect Queen had produced enough insects, he waved his hand and summoned an extremely grotesque black insect that resembled a headless earthworm.

However, this strange insect could extend itself much longer than an earthworm could.

Every person that had participated in the Guard Ye Banquet would have a vivid memory of this strange insect.

This insect-species carcinoma fey was the Hypha Tapeworm that Liu Jie had summoned during the Martial Stage.

The Hypha Tapeworm was extremely adaptable.

Although the sand was very dry, it did not prevent the Hypha Tapeworm from covering the ground with its hypha.

There was a rumor that the Hypha Tapeworm would be able to cover even lava with its hyphae when it reached Gold grade.

Liu Jie's Hypha Tapeworm had reached Diamond/Legend.

The Hypha Tapeworm rapidly divided itself amongst the purplish-black hypha. It did not take long for the carpet of hypha to be covered with black Hypha Tapeworms.

Lin Yuan instructed the Source Sand to bury the Hypha Tapeworm one meter underground.

Underground, the carpet of hypha continued to expand.

The buried Hypha Tapeworms were the second life of the entire insect army.

When the insect army died in battle, the Hypha Tapeworms would take control of their corpses so they would be able to re-enter the battle.

Liu Jie was not done. There was no way he was only going to use one insect-species carcinoma fey when he controlled more than ten.

After fusing with the Firefly Demon Fetus, the Blade Queen Bee had turned into a four-winged fairy and was in the midst of evolving.

Once the Blade Queen Bee comprehended a Willpower Rune from nature, it would be able to evolve to Myth Breed.

The Insect Queen controlled the Blade Queen Bee. As such, it was not limited by Liu Jie's spirit qi professional rank.

The Dimensional Light Moth spat out 80 spike-covered black caterpillars.

Liu Jie ordered the Insect Queen to produce another 80 Shield Ladybugs that were filled with protein.

The 80 Shield Ladybugs were well aware that their duty was only to be sustenance for the Blade Queen Bee's young insects.

The Shield Ladybugs lay in the sand and opened their armor to reveal their soft abdomens underneath. This would give the Blade Worms easier access to consume and take them as hosts.

After consuming the Shield Ladybugs, the Blade Worms would grow into adulthood.

Although the Blade Queen Bee's young insects had already entered the Shield Ladybug's bodies, they were completely silent.

Now, Liu Jie summoned an insect-species carcinoma fey that even Lin Yuan had never seen before.

1736 Parasite Decay Locust

The audience on Star Web was well and truly stunned by Liu Jie's combat power. Or rather, they were astounded by the insects' discipline.

Many of them were wondering how Liu Jie climbed up to Sequence #1 of the Radiance Hundred Sequence immediately after his absence.

Was it just because he was Chief Guard Ye's disciple?

All of the audience was now aware of how horrifying his power was.

!

None of the insects that the Dimensional Light Moth spat out was below Diamond grade.

Many spirit qi professionals who had adventured into alien insect dimensional rifts agreed that the insect army was just as terrifying as a Class 4 alien insect dimensional rift. In fact, even the alien insects in the Class 4 alien insect dimensional rift were not as powerful.

Liu Jie was leading the insect army on his own.

As the insects followed his orders to a tee, an overwhelming aura of nobility emanated from Liu Jie.

Liu Jie was truly embodying his title as the Heart of Insect Swarm.

The new insect-species carcinoma fey that Liu Jie summoned was a plain yellow and brown locust.

The locust was only around half the size of Liu Jie's hand.

Its abdomen was distended like a ball.

This plain locust was not the Poison Dust Locust, but it brought up a horrific memory for the residents of Golden Edge City.

The Sawtooth Devour Ant had almost caused the residents of Golden Edge City to starve to death in the city.

The Sawtooth Devour Ant could consume everything in its sight. Once it was full, it would go into a breeding state to produce a new Sawtooth Devour Ant.

It only took a few hours before the new Sawtooth Devour Ant hatched. Once it was hatched, it only needed one meal before it was fully grown.

The Poison Dust Locust had saved Golden Edge City.

However, the Poison Dust Locust was no hero, as it spread poisonous vapors around the city.

Although Creation Masters had used special spirit fluids to enable agriculture to become viable again in the city, the output was still far too low.

The disaster had turned Golden Edge City from a prospering city that brought in immense profit annually to a struggling city that struggled to stay afloat.

The upheaval of Golden Edge City's finances caused it to fall in the city rankings from number 7 to number 28.

Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the locust in Liu Jie's hand.

He saw that this insect-species carcinoma fey was called the Parasite Decay Locust.

Lin Yuan was speechless when he learned about the Parasite Decay Locust's exclusive skills.

In terms of toxicity, the Poison Dust Locust was stronger than the Parasite Decay Locust.

However, in terms of the ability to destroy the natural environment, there was no doubt that the Parasite Decay Locust deserved the throne.

Lin Yuan knew Liu Jie had summoned the Parasite Decay Locust to destroy the surroundings.

Since they were going to use formations to fight, they had no need for the natural environment.

If the enemy wanted to take them on, they would have to get through their formations.

Thus, they could rely on the environment to do so.

Liu Jie's idea was simple. Since they had no use for the environment, he was not going to allow the enemy to use it either.

Liu Jie shouted, "Parasite Decay Locust, spread your descendants throughout the entire battleground! Take over any and all living plants! Suck all the water dry! Gobble up all the mountains and stones!"

The Diamond X/Legend Parasite Decay Locust flew up into the air.

The Parasite Decay Locust was female, and its stomach was so abnormally huge that it slowed the Parasite Decay Locust down.

It slowly flew over to the edge of the yellow sand and tunneled into the branch of an ancient-looking tree.

The tree started to sway in less than ten seconds, and holes appeared all over its branches.

A green storm of what looked to be sand burst out from within the tree.

Lin Yuan, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng could clearly see that the sand was actually young locusts.

They watched as the locusts landed on the next tree and started to break it down.

The Parasite Decay Locust did not completely consume the tree but made the branches into its nest.

Once it took over the tree, the Parasite Decay Locusts would rapidly grow into the mother.

The mother would then produce numerous young insects within the tree.

At the same time, once the young locusts grew up, they would carry any bits of wood or grass back to feed the mother so that it would be able to produce even more young insects.

In the short span of two minutes, all the grass, rocks, and water in an almost 10,000-square-meter radius vanished.

The larger trees housed the mothers.

Since the mothers had pulled the front lines too far apart, they could not receive nutrition quickly enough and were letting out ear-splitting cries to hurry the young insects.

The Parasite Decay Locusts entered a crazed state and were on a hair trigger.

The Parasite Decay Locusts formed a no-man's land.

At that moment, 80 cries of agony ripped through the air.

The 80 Shield Ladybugs that had intentionally exposed their abdomens finally became nutrition for the Blade Worms.

The Blade Worms were now fully grown.

80 Blade Worms that were almost eight meters long, each with spikes all over their bodies, appeared by Liu Jie's side.

After being specially nurtured by the Blade Queen Bee and nourished by the 80 Fantasy III Shield Ladybugs, the Blade Worms reached Diamond X/Fantasy III. RE𝒂ad updated st𝒐ries at n/𝒐

A few of them that had not grown up properly only reached Diamond X/Fantasy II.

These Blade Worms were all the Blade Queen Bee's strongest weapons.

Even after the Blade Worms died, their bodies would be reused to attack the enemy.

When Liu Jie fought Long Tao, he only summoned the Demon Flower Fragrance Shield Stinkbug and the Quiet Floating Hat Insect.

The Parasite Decay Locust had sucked up all the water.

Hence, there was no need for Liu Jie to summon the water-dependent Quiet Floating Hat Insect.

However, he did summon the Demon Flower Fragrance Shield Stinkbug.

As per the third request, Gao Feng could not be attacked until the four others had fallen.

1737 I Just Happen to be Hungry! Finally, There's Something to Eat!

Thus, Gao Feng did not need to be protected.

Liu Jie assigned the Demon Flower Fragrance Shield Stinkbug to Lin Yuan to protect him.

After snapping his fingers another two times, Liu Jie summoned the Dead Soul Demon Insect.

The Dead Soul Demon Insect was still using the Orchid Petal Knife Mantis as its host as it tunneled into the sand.

The Dead Soul Demon Insect would be able to use the Orchid Petal Knife Mantis to assassinate targets.

Once the Orchid Petal Knife Mantis' body was damaged, the Dead Soul Demon Insect would be able to find the opportunity to take control of another life.

Soon after the Dead Soul Demon Insect appeared, Liu Jie summoned a flat insect-species carcinoma fey that left black marks in its wake, Vissit n𝒐velbin.c𝒐m for 𝒏ew 𝒏ovels

Liu Jie ordered two of the Hurricane Owlet Moths to carry this insect-species carcinoma fey to the edge of the sea of sand.

Lin Yuan took this opportunity to use True Data to check on this insect-species carcinoma fey and saw it was called the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect.

It could make the earth non-viable, which would be extremely beneficial to other insect-species carcinoma feys.

The sea of sand started to expand visibly.

As the Parasite Decay Locust mothers continued to make a ruckus, the young Parasite Decay Locusts all entered a frenzied state.

But after the young Parasite Decay Locusts consumed the non-viable earth, they were able to feed the mothers even faster.

Soon, the army of Parasite Decay Locusts charged outward.

Lin Yuan had heard of the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect.

It was extremely easy to pick out because soil turned non-viable wherever it appeared.

The Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect did not reproduce.

But, it was plenty dangerous on its own because once it encountered other insect-species carcinoma feys, they would be the cause of disasters only a few days later.

Liu Jie summoned seven insect-species carcinoma feys.

In a flash, a miniature disaster was generated.

Not only was the audience on Star Web dazed, but so were the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence, the members of the Radiance Federation's royalty, with the exception of Night Leaning Moon, Li Yang, and the Goddess of Mercy.

Li Yang only had one thought in his mind. What the hell is up with the Radiance Federation!? Are they nurturing a monster? How is he able to control so many insect-species carcinoma feys at one time?

It would be easier to swallow if the insect-species carcinoma feys were only Bronze or Gold. However, they were all Diamond X/Legend.

Luckily, the area was only ten square kilometers.

If the area was larger than 100 square kilometers, Night Leaning Moon's disciple would only need a short period to prepare, and the disasters created by the insect-species carcinoma feys would be enough to take on the load of the entire team.

Even if Lu Ou fused with his devil, he would not make it to the center.

In a large area, Liu Jie would be invincible.

Zong Ze had seen Liu Jie fight on the Martial Stage.

At that time, Liu Jie had only used three carcinoma feys.

This time, Liu Jie was using seven. Zong Ze gulped and asked, "Liu Jie, can it be that you have even more insect-species carcinoma feys?"

Liu Jie replied honestly, "When I last talked about my power, I only said that I have the Insect Queen. I forgot to mention that I have taken control of a total of 17 insect-species carcinoma feys. Besides the one that isn't with me, three of them are only suited to fight in the water. I have 13 usable ones in this situation and haven't summoned six because I think wielding seven at once is my limit. In my opinion, these seven are the best choices."

Zong Ze had always wanted to challenge Liu Jie to an individual fight.

The idea had popped into his head after the Guard Ye Banquet ended.

But now, Zong Ze abandoned the idea.

In a dueling ground of only 300 square meters, he would be able to defeat Liu Jie easily.

But if they were in a large space, Liu Jie would outlast him without breaking a sweat.

Thus, there was no point in them sparring against each other.

Zong Ze's strength lay in dominating the environment and his overwhelming combat ability.

However, after witnessing Liu Jie's abilities, Zong Ze felt that Liu Jie was already worthy of being a Radiance Envoy.

Nevertheless, Zong Ze had no idea that Liu Jie and Night Leaning Moon had already agreed that Liu Jie was going to give up on being a Radiance Envoy.

Rather, he was going to be Lin Yuan's Radiance Knight.

Lin Yuan was not idle while Liu Jie was setting up his formation.

He did not summon Red Thorn but instructed it to release 40 of its special spore cavities.

These spore cavities spewed out spores, and Red Thorn did not hesitate to use the Eyes of Relinquish.

The ground had already been devastated by the Parasite Decay Locust.

But now, numerous brutal vine ramets grew out of the ground.

The brutal vine ramets contained energy from the Eyes of Relinquish, so they could thrive despite the lack of corpses to draw energy from.

In two seconds, they grew from ten centimeters to one meter. In less than 40 seconds, they were longer than ten meters.

The brutal vine ramets grew outward continuously.

Because of the order that Liu Jie had given the Parasite Decay Locusts, they did not attack the brutal vine ramets and flew around them instead.

The sea of vines and insects melded together perfectly.

The Radiance Federation was done setting up.

However, the team of five from the Freedom Federation had cracked after they were transported to the battleground.

The cracks had mainly come from You Changjian and Yan Ling.

From the moment Yan Ling entered the battleground, she demanded that Cai Huo and You Changjian summon their sacred source lifeforms so the three sacred source lifeforms could become linked.

However, the two of them refused. They said they preferred to save spiritual power and only summon their sacred source lifeforms when encountering opponents.

Before they could argue for long or decide on the best way to take on the Radiance Federation team, they suddenly heard a loud buzz coming from the nearby forest.

It sounded as though a large swarm of something was flying toward them.

Lu Ou smiled and said, "I just happen to be hungry! Finally, there's something to eat!"

While he spoke, four black horns suddenly jutted out of his short white hair.

1738 Raised Black Finger!

Only two of the four horns spiraled upward, gleaming under the light. ViiSiit n𝒐velb𝒊/n.c/(𝒐)m for l𝒂test 𝒏𝒐vels

When the four horns appeared, a sunken, evil, and bizarre aura exploded from Lu Ou.

The tips of Lu Ou's short hair turned dark red, the whites of Lu Ou's eyes turned black, and a cynical tint glinted in his dark gold and red pupils.

Unlike previously, when he looked like nothing more than a lovable white-haired shotacon, anyone who saw him now would see a ferocious and bloodthirsty tyrant.

It was as though he saw everything on earth as potential prey.

Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian shot Lu Ou a look of terror. This especially applied to Yan Ling and You Changjian because they had contracted devils.

Yan Ling had contracted an intermediate devil, while You Changjian had contracted a lower devil.

The fact that You Changjian had not collapsed to the ground was already a testament to his exceptionally strong willpower.

After one contracted a devil, their soul would become fused with it.

Thus, You Changjian felt a natural fright toward the aura of a higher devil.

Qian Yu had not expected Lu Ou to strike first.

However, in the nearby forest, there were already the sounds of a nearing large swarm of insect-species feys.

There should not be any lifeforms in the battleground. The presence of lifeforms meant that the enemy had already begun making their move.

Qian Yu could not be sure if the incoming insect-species feys were the tip of the iceberg or the actual deadly attack.

Hence, Qian Yu waved his hand, and a giant monstrous fish appeared behind him.

There was a thick layer of armored skin covering the monstrous fish.

The fish opened its mouth, and a rancid stench permeated the air.

Immediately after the fish appeared, the sound of a drumming heartbeat vibrated through the ground.

If Lin Yuan saw the strange fish, he would definitely know that it had reached the maximum extent of returning to ancestry that fish-species feys could attain.

This fish-species fey had the bloodline of its ancestors from billions of years ago. As such, it had absolute authority over other fish-species feys.

Qian Yu shouted, "Cambria Descend!"

After Qian Yu issued his command, the strange fish's light green skin suddenly turned purple and red.

Extremely muddled water-elemental energy rolled out from the fish. It was as though an ancient ocean had appeared below their feet.

At that moment, Qian Yu's eyes met Lu Ou's, and he saw the deep annoyance that Lu Ou felt toward him. In fact, there was even an undeniable loathing.

Qian Yu immediately remembered what was special about Lu Ou's devil and hurriedly stopped his fey's utilization of Cambria Descend.

If he used Cambria Descend, all the insects would be instantly crushed, thereby ruining Lu Ou's meal.

It was said that other than Na Na, no other person could stand in Lu Ou's way of eating or face the risk of becoming his enemy.

By this time, the Parasite Decay Locusts had flown over to the Freedom Federation team.

Lu Ou's appetite did not diminish in the slightest, even after he saw the Parasite Decay Locusts' off-putting appearance.

He exhaled deeply, and his abdomen concaved.

Soon, he opened his mouth and inhaled sharply.

A black and red gust of wind appeared in front of him.

There were numerous red and black sharp claws in the wind. It was as though he was afraid that the incoming Parasite Decay Locusts would flee, so he wanted to trap them within the wind.

Given that the Parasite Decay Locusts were insect-species carcinoma feys, they were very capable of dividing themselves.

After being nurtured by Liu Jie and with the help of the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect, there were now tens of millions of the Parasite Decay Locusts.

Slowly, the red and black wind encompassed the entire swarm of Parasite Decay Locusts. Yet, Lu Ou appeared displeased, as though he was still hungry.

Ten-centimeter-long sharp black fingernails grew out of his slender white fingers.

Lu Ou pointed a finger forward, and a writhing stomach materialized within the black wind.

Twisting intestines appeared under the stomach, and the entire system started to squirm.

The millions of Gold, Platinum, and Diamond Parasite Decay Locusts were devoured by the stomach. The sickening sound of grinding filled the air.

Soon, a look of satisfaction spread across Lu Ou's face.

But at the same time, it was clear that the meal had not tasted good. It had filled Lu Ou's belly, but he could not enjoy it.

Yan Ling snapped out of her stupor and instinctively said, "If only, like Cai Huo, I haven't contracted a devil yet!"

You Changjian's lips twitched when he heard what Yan Ling said.

Yan Ling never ran her words through her brain before she said them.

Cai Huo was the last to join their three-person team. Previously, only You Changjian and Yan Ling's sacred source lifeforms had been linked. After Cai Huo appeared, their link turned into a ring.

Since he had been the last to join, he had not had the chance to achieve anything that would earn him a devil from a member of royalty.

After all, the Demon Church did not produce many devils.

There were more than 400 favored experts, and less than ten of them were worthy of contracting a devil.

This was why Cai Huo had always bullied Han Qi despite never having done anything that made him deserving of such treatment.

Cai Huo had always been jealous that Han Qi had an intermediate devil while he had none.

Yan Ling's words were like a knife that sliced through Cai Huo's heart, thoroughly humiliating him.

In the past, You Changjian might have spoken up.

But now, Lu Ou was in the midst of a meal.

If a fight broke out, the noises of disagreement would make Lu Ou unhappy.

You Changjian felt that it was highly plausible that Lu Ou would make good on his threat of eating the three of them and borrowing their abilities.

Cai Huo clearly knew this too!

He shot Yan Ling a furtive glance of rage and saw that she was patting her chest with slight trepidation.

Cai Huo had already lost count of how many times he had seen her suffer the consequences of her slip-ups.

Not even Qian Yu could bother Lu Ou while he was eating.

After eating for ten minutes, Lu Ou seemed to grow tired of eating the Parasite Decay Locusts.

Lu Ou had not lowered his finger. He plucked one of the Diamond Parasite Decay Locusts and brought it close to his face.

1739 Clan Adjudication, Death of the Parasite Decay Locusts!

Lu Ou's long and slender black fingernail pierced the head of the Parasite Decay Locust.

Soon, an intense supernatural aura rose from his back. It was as though a lifeform was establishing itself as a ruler.

At that moment, Lu Ou said in a hoarse and muffled voice, "Clan Adjudication!"

In a flash, the sound of the Parasite Decay Locusts' flapping wings vanished.

!

Even the cries of the Parasite Decay Locust mothers halted.

In the distance, Liu Jie furrowed his brow.

He took a deep breath and said to Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, Liu Yifan, and Gao Feng, "The Parasite Decay Locust mothers are dead. So are the young and adult insects. All of them have been wiped out."

Liu Jie could scout out the surroundings using the Hurricane Owlet Moths.

Due to the Insect Queen's high intelligence, the Hurricane Owlet Moths all became Liu Jie's eyes.

Although the Parasite Decay Locust mothers had reached Diamond/Legend, their intelligence was no different from Silver feys.

As such, they were completely unable to communicate and could only be controlled through the Insect Queen.

The Parasite Decay Locust mothers could control the young insects but could not tap into the adult insects in any way.

Hence, Liu Jie had no idea what happened in the distance.

Liu Jie hurriedly instructed the Hurricane Owlet Moths to fly out to find out what had happened. Nêww 𝒄hapters will be fully updated at (n)ov(𝒆)

Luckily, the deaths of the insect-species carcinoma feys that the Insect Queen controlled negatively impacted it.

The Insect Queen used psychotoxin and spiritual energy to control the insect-species carcinoma feys.

Now that one of the insect-species carcinoma feys was dead, some of the Insect Queen's spiritual energy was freed up.

Liu Jie summoned another insect-species carcinoma fey.

This one had a very unusual appearance. Its reflective green shell was covered in bright feelers. The two wings on its back were even more eye-catching than that of a butterfly.

This insect-species carcinoma fey was called the Spirit-Burning Golden Turtle.

It could release vapors that would set fire to the spirit qi and elemental energy in the environment.

However, under the Insect Queen's control, the Spirit-Burning Golden Turtle would be able to restrain itself to leave elemental energy that the Insect Queen needed alone.

Given Liu Jie's understanding, their team only needed fire-elemental energy.

If he set fire to other types of elemental energy, the concentration of fire-elemental energy would also increase. This would be beneficial to Zong Ze's combat.

As such, Liu Jie ordered the Spirit-Burning Golden Turtle to set fire to all the wind- and water-elemental energy in the air.

It would not be able to set fire to the earth-elemental energy in the ground.

Moreover, the Source Sand needed to use earth-elemental energy.

From the moment Liu Jie said that all the Parasite Decay Locusts had died, Lin Yuan had started to wonder what kind of power had managed to do such damage.

This circumstance indicated that the Freedom Federation had the ability to fend off insect-species carcinoma feys.

While Lin Yuan was pondering over this issue, Lu Ou turned to say to Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian, "I already told the three of you to stop fighting. But you let my words slip out of your mind after only a few minutes. If this happens again, I will eat you and just explain the reason to the members of royalty who favor you."

While Lu Ou spoke, his expression was relaxed.

However, anyone who knew him knew that he never made empty promises.

Lu Ou shook his sleeve, and another him appeared next to him.

However, this Lu Ou was different from the original one because he had not activated the devil in his body.

Compared to the Lu Ou, who had activated his devil, this new Lu Ou looked like an angel.

However, Qian Yu looked at the original Lu Ou with more fear in his eyes than he did the other Lu Ou.

Qian Yu said in a low voice, "Lu Ou, I can't believe you've nurtured the bloodline of the Disaster World Faceless Beast that Na Na gave you to such a degree!"

There had been a rumor in the Freedom Federation that many young boys had gone missing in recent years.

All of those young boys shared a common trait—they were all less than 20 years old, and their birthdays fell on 27th May.

Lu Ou's birthday also happened to be 27th May.

The Disaster World Faceless Beast needed to experience life before it changed into human form.

It turned out that the missing young boys were linked to Lu Ou.

Qian Yu always felt that Lu Ou had an upstanding character.

But now, he discovered that Lu Ou's heart was as black as night. Under his innocent appearance was swirling evil.

This should not be surprising! How pure could a person linked to a devil be?

Lu Ou stretched and said, "There isn't a time limit for this group battle. It will only end when the victor emerges. Since the Radiance Federation decided to broadcast the battle on Star Web, we will just kill whatever and whoever appears. We will let the people of the Radiance Federation know what the Freedom Federation is capable of."

Qian Yu coughed and said to Lu Ou, "Killing whatever and whoever appears is feasible. However, the other team has already discovered us. Look, a few white moths are flying above us."

Lu Ou seemed to know what Qian Yu was thinking. He raised his hand and looked at his black fingernails as he said, "I can only use Clan Adjudication three times per year. I used it just now because those insects were insect-species carcinoma feys. If I didn't use Clan Adjudication, your Cambria Abundant Fish would not have been able to kill those Platinum and above insect-species carcinoma feys. You would have needed to summon another fey. It was better that I stepped in than you using more of your spirit qi. That was the first time that I used Clan Adjudication this year.

"Qian Yu, we have to win this battle. The three of them aren't thinking as one mind at all. They're just fully reliant on the link between their sacred source lifeforms. In this world, no power is invincible."

"Since you said that, I shall preserve my spiritual power while we're heading over and leave everything to you," said Qian Yu.

Qian Yu turned his gaze to Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian and said, "Lu Ou might have said that we'll just attack whatever appears, but the three of you should still summon your sacred source lifeforms. There's no need to hide your main feys either. If the three of you can't be useful, you might as well let Lu Ou eat you. That way, Lu Ou and I can just fight without worrying about you."

1740 Sacred Source Lifeform With the Same Bloodline!

The link between Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms could be extremely helpful to a team, regardless of size.

In fact, the more people linked, the stronger the connection between the three sacred source lifeforms would be.

At first, the three of them assumed that at least ten people would be involved in the group battle.

Yet, after losing Capture the General, Qian Yu decided that only five people would participate.

!

As such, the connection between Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms would not be at maximum strength.

The biggest fear of the three of them was that they would be targeted while they were connected.

If any one of the three of them was killed, their group work would fail even if they were in the midst of using their sacred source lifeforms.

The three of them were young experts from the Freedom Federation and were seven or eight years younger than Qian Yu.

It was heartbreaking to hear what Qian Yu said. He made the three of them sound like burdens.

What do you mean only you and Lu Ou will fight? What do you mean by worrying about us?

Although Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian felt that it was likely that Lu Ou would devour them if he exploded into an uncontrolled frenzy, that did not mean that the three of them were going to go down easy.

Rather than rebuking Lu Ou, Qian Yu had supported him.

Qian Yu had made it sound like the three of them would be most useful as Lu Ou's sustenance.

Before Cai Huo and You Changjian could say anything, Yan Ling said, "Qian Yu, the three of us can summon our sacred source lifeforms, but you must promise that you and Lu Ou will protect us during the battle!

"If the enemy targets us or any accidents take place, do you really think that you and Lu Ou will be able to win on your own? It isn't easy for our devils to evolve. However, it is much easier for the feys with the Barren bloodline from the Radiance Federation to evolve.

"If I'm certain of anything, it's that the Radiance Envoy's fey with the Barren bloodline has reached Desolate. Feys with the Desolate bloodline are the equivalent of higher devils. We aren't at much of an advantage. You have secret weapons, but don't you think that they have their own arsenal too?"

Qian Yu's eyes narrowed when he heard what Yan Ling said. He knew that she was trying to underscore the importance of the three of them.

It was true that without the three of them, it was unlikely that Qian Yu and Lu Ou would be able to defeat the Radiance Federation team on their own.

However, Qian Yu was surprised that such pessimistic words came from the ever-high and mighty Yan Ling.

Apparently, she was not exempt from fear either.

Cai Huo and You Changjian's faces were slightly pale.

Although they were looking at Lu Ou and Qian Yu with fear, they still dutifully summoned their sacred source lifeforms.

At that moment, numerous spider images appeared next to Cai Huo.

The tiny spiders had black legs and blackish-red backs. Their abdomens were dark red.

Eventually, the tiny spiders gathered together to take the shape of a demon that had the top half of a beautiful middle-aged woman and the bottom half of a spider. Reêad latest 𝒏ov𝒆ls at n𝒐𝒐v/e/l/bi𝒏.com

The girl's eyes were slits, and two sharp fangs protruded past its lips. This gave the woman a malevolent aura.

The girl's hands were outspread and resembled brackets.

There was a gossamer spider web between the hands, and countless small spiders climbed around on the web.

Meanwhile, a stocky boar appeared next to You Changjian.

It had large golden tusks and a pair of golden wings on its back. Its left trotter was covered by thick iron armor that had many detailed engravings all over it.

The engravings resembled hieroglyphs. It was as though the boar was being used as a slab that someone was carving hieroglyphs.

The giant boar stomped its feet, and its head shrunk into its throat.

At the same time, a muscular middle-aged woman pushed out of its back.

Her mouth was filled with long fangs, and a pair of golden wings was on her back.

Its left hand was made of iron, and there were engravings all over it. She let out a continuous stream of wails.

Yan Ling had not wanted to summon her sacred source lifeform at this juncture because the white moths in the sky were clearly the enemy's scouts.

Before they blocked their opponent's sight, their opponent would be able to analyze their sacred source lifeforms and make guesses about their abilities.

However, the circumstances took precedence.

Lu Ou and Qian Yu were fully looking down on the three of them, and Cai Huo and You Changjian had already summoned their sacred source lifeforms.

As such, Yan Ling had no choice but to summon her own sacred source lifeform.

Compared to Cai Huo and You Changjian's ugly sacred source lifeforms, Yan Ling's sacred source lifeform was much easier on the eyes.

A large clam shell appeared by her feet.

At the same time, a 50 square-meter-radius area immediately turned to water.

The shell opened, and a young girl with the lower half of a fish was revealed. Her skin was icy blue.

She resembled the sirens from the Azure Federation's Lantis Mystic Realm but did not have the same sharp ears they did. Her tail was not as beautiful either.

The girl made space for Yan Ling in the clamshell so that Yan Ling would also be able to sit inside it and picked up a large fan from the coral shelf behind her.

There were many thin blue aquatic plants on the fan that resembled strands of hair.

Every time the girl flapped the fan, droplets of water would fly out from it and start swirling around the large clam shell.

Lu Ou said to Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian, "All these three sacred source lifeforms have the aura of the gorgon bloodline. No wonder they can be connected."

The Freedom Federation had entered the marsh world a decade earlier than the Radiance Federation became able to enter the abyssal world.

They had explored the marsh world far more than the Radiance Federation had ventured into the abyssal world.

At first, the Freedom Federation's royalty saw the marsh world as a large treasure chest. They often entered the marsh world to explore it and had emptied out all the resources from one of the regions.

All the factions in the marsh world were dependent on a specific resource.

Hence, it was inevitable that the Freedom Federation had become acquainted with the Apostles in the marsh world.

They had even interacted with the Dictators on a few occasions and given a peek of Transform Spirit Dictator's secret.

It turned out that once dimensional lifeforms reached Transform Spirit Dictator's level, they would be able to make a choice.

1741 Destroyed Sea of Flowers!

They would have to start over if they chose to take human form.

But once they reached that level again, there was a high chance that they would be able to cross that step.

This was why the Apostles and Dictators were willing to manage the factions.

Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms had come from the marsh world. The Freedom Federation's royalty had exchanged resources for them.

Once the bloodlines of dimensional lifeforms like the Medusa Snake Demon reached a certain level, they would be able to fuse with the bloodline of another lifeform.

After the fusion, they would be able to gain the other lifeform's abilities and become a completely new sacred source lifeform.

These sacred source lifeforms were called gorgons.

The Freedom Federation's royalty had once come up with a plan to obtain more sacred source lifeforms from the Dictators.

For this plan, they had even captured a large number of Medusa Snake Demons that their Class 5 Creation Masters nurtured together.

Alas, the plan eventually failed.

If they had been able to obtain more sacred source lifeforms with the gorgon bloodline to join Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Caijian's team, they could have strengthened their connection even further.

Yan Ling said to Qian Yu and Lu Ou, "Are you really not going to shoot down those moths in the sky?"

Lu Ou strode forward and said, "You don't need to worry about that. There's no point in holding back secret weapons in this battle. There's no way the other side knows what abilities your three sacred source lifeforms have. If we shoot down their scouts, they'll just send more. According to the information we know, Night Leaning Moon's disciple Liu Jie has a source-type lifeform that can produce many types of insects. Even if I use Clan Adjudication, it won't be of any help because that source-type lifeform doesn't have the same genes as those white moths. Moreover, I can't use my devil's abilities so casually."

Lu Ou had used Clan Adjudication casually before in the past.

Clan Adjudication's abilities could not be accumulated.

If the three chances a year were not used up, they would go to waste. Even in the next year, only three chances would be allowed.

Hence, Lu Ou would only use Clan Adjudication casually when he wanted to experiment with its power and knew that he would not need all chances for more pressing purposes.

Eventually, Lu Ou realized that Clan Adjudication targeted the souls of feys.

If it was used on a large clan, its negative impacts would be inflicted on Lu Ou and cause harm to his soul.

Lu Ou only used the ability on lifeforms like the insect-species carcinoma feys, which had small clans.

As the Freedom Federation group advanced, they saw that the battleground's geographical formations had all been destroyed. Vissit n𝒐velbin.c𝒐m for 𝒏ew 𝒏ovels

Besides the trees that used to house the Parasite Decay Locusts, even large boulders had been ground into flakes.

Before they could get far, they realized that there were noises coming from under their feet.

Lu Ou immediately jumped backward.

He stepped on the ground in front of him experimentally to ensure that it was solid before he said to Qian Yu, "It looks like Black's sand-type source-type lifeform has reached this far."

Almost immediately after Lu Ou spoke, a pool of quicksand appeared where he had just stepped away from.

Numerous vines rose out from the sea of sand and wrapped around the five people.

Lu Ou did not try to dodge the vines because Yan Ling had already instructed her sacred source lifeform to use its large fan.

As the fan flapped, the seaweed on it grew rapidly until it linked Cai Huo, Yan Ling, You Changjian, Qian Yu, Lu Ou, the Disaster Faceless Beast, the three sacred source lifeforms, and the Cambria Abundant Fish together.

Soon, the wails of agony let out by You Changjian's half-boar and half-woman sacred source lifeform intensified.

The spider web between the hands of Cai Huo's half-spider and half-woman sacred source lifeform started to glow with a sinister purplish-red light.

Although the brutal vine ramets had already made contact with all of them, all the damage was absorbed by the three of them.

A totem appeared on the iron-covered left hand of You Changjian's sacred source lifeform.

Eventually, the half-boar and half-woman sacred source lifeform seemed to reach the maximum extent of damage it could take and exploded.

At that moment, the half-boar and half-woman sacred source lifeform rematerialized and supplied a well of vitality to everyone present.

The vitality seemed to amount to the damage that the half-boar and half-woman sacred source lifeform had sustained.

Soon, Cai Huo's half-spider and half-woman sacred source lifeform shook its hand, and the spiders on the spider web crawled over to the brutal vine ramets.

When the spiders arrived at the brutal vine ramets, a black and red spider imprint appeared on the vines.

Every attack made by the brutal vine ramets would result in another spider imprint appearing.

Once three layers of spider imprints appeared, a purplish-black noxious gas would explode from within the vines, causing the vines to start to wither rapidly.

As long as Lu Ou, Qian Yu, You Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo continued to move forward while the three sacred source lifeforms were linked, the attacks from Red Thorn and the Source Sand would eventually diminish.

If Red Thorn's brutal vine ramets continued to attack, the sea of flowers would eventually be destroyed by the poisonous vapors.

Unlike the swarm of Parasite Decay Locusts that Liu Jie had ordered the Insect Queen to generate, Lin Yuan was able to see what was happening through Red Thorn's sea of flowers.

Lin Yuan frowned when he sensed what was happening because he could not figure out what ability the three sacred source lifeforms were using.

Normally, he would just wait for the five of them to arrive so he would be able to use True Data to check on the three sacred source lifeforms' abilities.

However, Morbius had told him that when it was awake, it could use a large amount of spiritual power to use True Data itself. This would enable it to check on enemies through the eyes of the feys on the same side as them.

1742 Astonishing Spiritual Power Within Black's Body!

Hence, Lin Yuan hurriedly communicated with Morbius.

"Partner, how much spiritual power will it take for you to use Red Thorn's sight to check on the sacred source lifeforms within the sea of flowers?"

Morbius was momentarily silent before saying, "Partner, it normally doesn't take much spiritual power for you to check on feys and sacred source lifeforms. But if you use one of your contracted feys to check on a lifeform that's that far away, it will require a lot of spiritual power.

"You definitely don't have enough spiritual power in your body. I might be able to use Red Thorn to check on two of the sacred source lifeforms before you run out of spiritual power. If you're insistent on checking, I suggest that you open the Spirit Qi Imprint!"

Lin Yuan nodded.

The Spirit Qi Imprint had always been one of his secret weapons, and he rarely used it.

It had already saved him on multiple occasions.

When Lin Yuan decided to open the Spirit Qi Imprint to enable Morbius to check on the three sacred source lifeforms, the audience on Star Web felt their breaths hitch in their throats.

Most of them had never even heard of sacred source lifeforms.

But during Capture the General, they realized how powerful sacred source lifeforms were.

Liu Jie and Lin Yuan had laid out their formations and turned all the hills into a sea of sand.

Liu Jie had created thousands of insects and summoned a few insect-species carcinoma feys with unpleasant names.

The sea of flowers was placed atop the sand.

Gao Feng had used the Breeze Hibiscus and the two Spirit Spring Lilies to recover Liu Jie's spiritual power.

This enabled Liu Jie to generate even more insects through the Insect Queen.

With such abilities and given the state, the audience on Star Web saw no way that the Radiance Federation team could lose.

Lu Shuang, who had always been confident in her powers, gulped when she saw what Lin Yuan and Liu Jie had collectively produced.

She had no words. Their formation could only be described as almighty! It deserved to be recorded in textbooks on strategy!

If Lu Shuang had participated in such a battle with the two Earth Walking Witch Snakes and the Exquisite Rhino Giraffe, the sea of flowers and insect army would have devoured them in less than three minutes.

The Radiance Federation team had been actively making preparations while the Freedom Federation team had started arguing.

Lu Shuang felt sure that victory was imminent!

There were also many similar positive predictions on Star Web.

Is Little Song Done For Today?: What's the point in continuing this fight? Let's start celebrating our team's victory!

Early Sun: The five people from the Freedom Federation aren't made of much after all. I can't believe they're fighting at such a time! Don't they know that they're about to fight side by side?

Dream of You: My legs have gone numb. There's a sea of flowers atop the sea of sand and a sea of insects on top of the sea of flowers. I can't see any possibility of us losing!

Moon Clear: Do you guys get the same feeling that the Freedom Envoy named Qian Yu is afraid of the black-haired young man? Why is that? As the Freedom Envoy, shouldn't Qian Yu be the leader of the team?

As she read her comment section, Lu Shuang felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.

After all, the Freedom Federation was the one who had proposed the fight.

There was no way they were going to send their young experts on a suicide mission. That would be meaningless.

They still had a bet to complete with the Radiance Federation two years later at the Major Federation Meeting.

As Lu Shuang thought about the bet's stakes, she felt neither federation could afford to lose.

Just as Lu Shuang suspected, the Freedom Federation team dealt with the swarm of locusts.

They used an inexplicable power to eliminate an insect-species carcinoma fey.

Next, when they took on the sea of flowers, they summoned three sacred source lifeforms that used another mysterious ability to decimate the sea of flowers.

The thing that symbolized the young genius Black was undoubtedly the boundless sea of flowers.

When Black first arrived on the scene and saved Millstone Town, the sea of flowers had taken center stage. Alll 𝒍𝒂test nov𝒆l𝒔 on novelb𝒊n/.c𝒐m

The sea of flowers sent the message that Black was undefeatable.

But now, the sea of flowers had been destroyed!

The hearts of the Star Web audience plummeted.

Stream that Goes With the Breeze: What happened? How was Black's sea of flowers destroyed? Who can tell me what happened?

Clear: How can a young spirit qi professional have such power? I doubt that even veteran experts are usually this strong!

Watching Over the Mountain: Will Lord Liu Yifan, Black, and the rest be able to hold out against such power?

Lu Shuang was at a loss for words.

She had already forgotten that she was a Star Web host. She was fully focused on watching the broadcast and praying that the Radiance Federation team would win.

Everyone knew the cost of losing, but no one dared to voice it out.

At that moment, Lu Shuang suddenly noticed a wave of spiritual power bursting forth from Lin Yuan.

This wave of spiritual power was so mighty that Lin Yuan's body could not contain it.

Lu Shuang was an A-rank spirit qi professional. She felt that the spiritual power in her body was like a puddle compared to the wave that had erupted from Lin Yuan's body.

Lu Shuang was not the only one who was astonished. The audience watching the broadcast was on the same page as her.

The 13 members of the Radiance Federation's royalty, Li Yang, and the Goddess of Mercy, were all staring at Lin Yuan in shock.

The spirit qi that had just spewed out of Lin Yuan was comparable to that of an S rank spirit qi professional.

However, once a spirit qi professional reached S-rank, their spiritual power would transform.

An A-rank spirit qi professional would be able to produce tornadoes of spirit qi. But, the way that the tornadoes of spirit qi could be used was no different from normal spirit qi.

However, once a spirit qi professional reached S-rank, their spiritual power would turn into mercury that they could use to create a block to defend themselves with.

Lin Yuan did not exhibit such transformed spirit qi.

Although he had a startlingly large amount of spiritual power, he could only use it in the same way that every other B-rank spirit qi professional could.

Nonetheless, the quantity of spiritual power was stunning.

Lin Yuan had never imagined that opening his Spirit Qi Imprint after so long would cause such an enormous reaction.

It was true that the Spirit Qi Imprint had been closed and accumulating spiritual power for a very long time.

1743 Clam, Teeth, Threads!

Blackie had evolved to Diamond X/Fantasy V.

The amount of spiritual power that accumulated in the imprint every day was on another level from just a month ago when Blackie had been Gold grade.

Liu Jie, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng all looked at Lin Yuan in amazement.

However, Lin Yuan could not be bothered with this because he needed to learn about what abilities the three sacred source lifeforms had before they arrived.

He would then be able to give Gao Feng the proper instructions so that the latter would know how to use the Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box to break the connection between the three sacred source lifeforms.

Lin Yuan injected his spiritual power into his wrist where Morbius was.

Under Lin Yuan's sleeve, hidden from the view of everyone, Morbius lit up with a faint rust-colored light.

It did not take long for Lin Yuan to hear back from Morbius.

The three sacred source lifeforms' data appeared in Lin Yuan's mind. Alll 𝒍𝒂test nov𝒆l𝒔 on novelb𝒊n/.c𝒐m

He was shocked when he read through their data.

He now knew how they managed to destroy Red Thorn's sea of flowers.

The information he had obtained from Yin Lin mentioned that Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms could be linked.

Before the group battle began, Lin Yuan learned the names of the five participants from the Freedom Federation envoy group.

Yan Ling's clam sacred source lifeform was called the Gorgon Clam.

[Sacred Source Name: Gorgon Clam

[Sacred Source Species: Source genus/Sacred Source species

[Sacred Source Star Grade: 4 Stars

[Sacred Source Type: Water

Abilities:

Red Algae Flow: Red algae will be released, and a link will be formed between chosen targets. The targets linked by the red algae will share the damage with the red algae. When the targets sustain damage, they will recover some vitality. Spirit qi can be used to adjust the recovered vitality and divided among the targets.

Spirit Boiling Paralysis: Draw out a designated area, and the target that has the highest amount of spirit qi within the area will be paralyzed. After paralyzing the target, the target's spiritual power will drop, and the target of paralysis will move on to the next body that contains the most spirit qi.

The sacred source lifeform next to You Changjian, with the body of a boar and two tusks sprouting from its mouth, was called the Gorgon's Teeth.

[Sacred Source Name: Gorgon's Teeth

[Sacred Source Species: Source genus/Sacred Source species

[Sacred Source Star Grade: 4 Stars

[Sacred Source Type: Gold

Abilities:

Cracked Body Remolded: When under attack, it can absorb all the damage sustained by targets. Once the limit is reached, the body will crack, and all the absorbed damage will transform into vitality that will be divided amongst the linked targets. The cracked body can be recovered when healed by vitality.

Teeth's Gift: A portion of its power source can be given to a target to temporarily share its power with the target.

The sacred source lifeform next to Cai Huo that had hands that were covered with spider webs was called the Gorgon's Threads. It had been responsible for destroying the sea of flowers.

[Sacred Source Name: Gorgon's Threads

[Sacred Source Species: Source genus/Sacred Source species

[Sacred Source Star Grade: 3 Stars

[Sacred Source Type: Poison

Abilities:

Corrosive Poison Exploding Heart: Each time it's attacked, it will immediately cause a corrosive poison imprint to appear on a target. Once the imprints accumulate to three layers, they will turn into a corrosive poison that can be exploded. The explosion will be aimed at the target's energy source.

From the names of the three sacred source lifeforms, Lin Yuan knew why they were able to attack cooperatively.

Although Lin Yuan was also expanding into the marsh world, he had never heard of the gorgons.

He had managed to establish his own base in the marsh world but had yet to thoroughly explore the marsh world.

This was because he wanted to create his own faction in the marsh world and because he had not had the time to properly explore the marsh world due to being preoccupied with his business in the Divine Wood Federation.

At this moment, Morbius said, "Partner, these three sacred source lifeforms were formed from dead source-type lifeforms that had come from the same dimensional lifeform. According to my investigation, their aura is similar to that of the Medusa Snake Demon from the marsh world. Partner, if you kill them, I can use the power of my source to fuse their bodies. The precious instrument made from their fused bodies will take on part of their original abilities."

When Lin Yuan heard what Morbius said, a wry smile appeared behind his silver mask.

According to his observation, Yan Ling's sacred source lifeform was the leader of the three sacred source lifeforms.

The Gorgon Clam's second ability Spirit Boiling Paralysis perfectly countered him when he opened the Spirit Qi Imprint.

Once he entered the area where the Gorgon Clam had used Spirit Boiling Paralysis, he would be instantly immobilized.

Nonetheless, he had no choice.

If he had not used the Spirit Qi Imprint, he would not have been able to check on the three sacred source lifeforms' data.

You Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo's sacred source lifeforms' Stars were not high.

This was only to be expected.

Before the Guard Ye Banquet started, Zong Ze's sacred source lifeform had only been 3 Stars. It only evolved to 4 Stars during the Guard Ye Banquet.

Zong Ze was already 22 years old this year.

Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian were clearly around 20 years old.

Given their age, they had clearly invested a lot of effort into raising their sacred source lifeforms' Stars to such a level.

Gao Feng's sacred source lifeform had only been able to reach 6 Stars because Cicada Song had fed the Alleviating Wind's source to the Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box.

Because of this, the Alleviating Wind would not be able to increase its Stars for a long time.

Taking Lin Yuan as an example, his sacred source lifeform had also only recently reached 4 Stars.

He had invested a lot of effort into increasing the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen's Stars.

Given its Stars, the Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box would be capable of controlling Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's sacred source lifeforms using Memory Magic Cut and Exile Tuning.

Without knowing what the three sacred source lifeforms' abilities were, their abilities seemed infallible.

But now that Lin Yuan knew what their abilities were, he immediately found the crux of their connection.

1744 Black's Cat Tails is Used on His Teammates!

Thus, the link between the three sacred source lifeforms depended on the Gorgon Clam's ability, Red Algae Flow.

It linked the Gorgon Threads and Gorgon Teeth to the Gorgon Clam.

The Gorgon Teeth's ability Cracked Body Remolded, and the Gorgon Threads' ability Corrosive Poison Exploding Heart were only able to produce such powerful effects due to the link from Red Algae Flow. Re𝒂𝒂d the latest stories 𝒐n nov𝒆

According to the data about the three sacred source lifeforms from True Data, Cracked Body Remolded absorbed the damage from itself and linked targets.

It was considered a powerful defensive ability.

When it reached its limit of the damage it could sustain, its body would crack, and the sustained damage would change into vitality that could be divided among itself and the other linked targets.

Red Algae Flow would result in targets recovering their vitality after sustaining damage. Spirit qi could be used to direct the recovered vitality to a specific target.

As such, all the vitality that was released as a result of the Gorgon Teeth's body breaking could be directed back to it. It would cause the Gorgon Teeth to regenerate and make it appear invincible.

The Gorgon Threads was a poison-type sacred source lifeform, and Corrosive Poison Exploding Heart was a very powerful counterattack ability.

Each time it sustained an attack, it would counterattack by placing a corrosive poison imprint on the target.

Once it was attacked thrice, there would be three layers of the corrosive poison imprint. This would produce the poisonous spider that automatically sought out the source of the enemy's energy and exploded there.

This ability would have been very easy to dodge if not for the ability Red Algae Flow because all they had to do was avoid attacking the Gorgon Threads.

But because of their link, any attack that hit any member of the team would result in a corrosive poison imprint being formed.

The energy source of the ramets produced by Red Thorn lay in the small corrosive cavity of the brutal vine ramets.

After the Source Sand turned to sand, the entire sea of sand would be part of its body, and it would not have any energy source.

Hence, Red Thorn's sea of flowers had been damaged while the Source Sand had been completely unharmed.

Lin Yuan turned to Gao Feng and was about to tell him about what he had just learned when he remembered that two members of the Freedom Federation's royalty were watching this battle.

Lin Yuan did not want to reveal that he had an almost unfairly powerful investigative ability. Thus, he used Connected Tails through himself.

All of the Star Web audience had been looking forward to the reappearance of the white cat tails.

But unlike last time, the tails did not attack.

Rather, four cat tails burrowed out from behind Black.

These cat tails were like long belts that gleamed with a beautiful glass-like light.

They shot toward Zong Ze, Liu Jie, Liu Yifan, and Gao Feng, thus linking the four of them.

One sacred source lifeform from the Freedom Federation team had linked their entire group.

Now, the Radiance Federation team was doing the same.

However, there did not appear to be anything special about this link. It did not seem to be making any difference.

The high-class Creation Masters among the audience on Star Web were already starting to guess the abilities of the four gleaming cat tails.

Black had only used the cat tails three times. Every time, it resulted in stupefying displays.

But not one time did Black summon the fey that the cat tails belonged to.

It was extremely mysterious!

Nonetheless, these four cat tails seemed too ordinary.

However, the audience soon learned from Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng's expressions that there was more to the cat tails than what met the eye.

Liu Jie had been on the receiving end of Connected Tails before. Hence, he was not unfamiliar with the feeling of being linked with Lin Yuan's mind through the cat tails.

It was as though the other parties would instantly be able to read what he was thinking.

Zong Ze and Gao Feng rarely engaged in group battles.

But they still knew that this ability Lin Yuan was using was very strong and that it was very helpful to the battle.

Liu Yifan had constantly been in group battles in recent years. Thus, he was well aware of how precious this ability was. There was no question that it had reached strategic-class.

Liu Yifan felt that this ability was enough to guarantee Black a spot as a Radiance Knight as long as he had a decent level of combat power.

This ability was just too important in a team.

Even teammates working together for a long time would slip up in panic due to a breakdown in communication.

Black's ability would completely eliminate the possibility of such slip-ups.

Black was the most powerful black horse of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

From his battle against Han Qi, he had already proven himself to be a top young expert.

Liu Yifan sighed.

He was all but certain that as long as nothing abnormal occurred, Black would definitely be part of the next batch of Radiance Envoys.

Before Liu Yifan could continue marveling over Lin Yuan's capabilities, he heard Lin Yuan telling them about the three sacred source lifeforms' abilities through their link.

Despite having garnered a wealth of experience, Liu Yifan's eyes still widened with surprise.

Immediately after using the cat tails to create a perfect bridge of communication between the team, he was now demonstrating an inexplicable investigative ability.

They were so far away from their opponent that Liu Yifan could not even catch a glimpse of their shadows.

Yet, through some unknown method, Black had managed to see through the abilities of the opponents' sacred source lifeforms.

This implied that Black was an exceedingly powerful Creation Master.

Liu Yifan hung onto every word that Black was saying as he carefully memorized the abilities of the three sacred source lifeforms.

The longer he listened, the deeper his heart sank.

Once the three sacred source lifeforms were linked, the connection was unbreakable.

Their abilities slotted together so perfectly that it would be very hard to tackle using regular methods.

1745 Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess' True Form!

Liu Yifan felt that the easiest way to tackle this problem would be to continuously use powerful offense.

Yan Ling needed to use her own spiritual power for the Gorgon Clam to use Red Algae Flow to recover the Gorgon Teeth's vitality.

If a series of powerful explosions caused Yan Ling to use up all her spiritual power, she would not be able to continue supplying her sacred source lifeforms with spiritual power.

Any other of the four Radiance Envoys would be able to carry out this plan.

Alas, he was a defense-type spirit qi professional that leaned toward support. As such, he would not be able to produce strong effects.

In his previous team, every Radiance Envoy had its own role and specialization.

Liu Yifan never felt that a lack of combat power was a weakness until now.

But now, it was too late. There was no way for him to back out to allow another Radiance Envoy to take his place.

He had considered having Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Black carry out the attacks instead.

However, no matter how strong they were, they were still only B-rank spirit qi professionals. As such, the limit of their feys' power was Diamond X/Fantasy V.

Although all of them had combat abilities beyond their level, which was proven by Black's battle against Han Qi, it would be impossible for them to roll grades multiple times.

Normally, it took about 5% to 8% of the spiritual power in a person's body to use their sacred source lifeform's ability once.

This meant that Yan Ling would be able to use Red Algae Flow at least 12 times.

Moreover, there was no way that the rest of the people from the Freedom Federation would stand by and watch as Yan Ling was attacked and the link between the three sacred source lifeforms was broken.

Liu Yifan was at a loss for a strategy.

At that moment, after Lin Yuan was done explaining the three sacred source lifeforms, he went on to say, "Gao Feng, your sacred source lifeform will be able to break the link between the three sacred source lifeforms. Later, ignore the Gorgon Threads and the Gorgon Teeth. Target the Gorgon Clam's ability, Red Algae Flow first. Given that your sacred source lifeform has 6 Stars, it should be easy for it to use Memory Magic Cut on Red Algae Flow."

"No problem. But Black, you have the most spiritual power out of everyone here. The Gorgon Clam's second ability Spirit Boiling Paralysis will immediately immobilize you. Should I use Memory Magic Cut to seal off Spirit Boiling Paralysis?" replied Gao Feng.

Lin Yuan mulled for a moment before he shook his head and said, "The Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box is still in its adolescent phase and hasn't reached 7 Stars yet. It will only be able to use Memory Magic Cut to seal off two sacred source lifeform abilities. It goes without saying for Qian Yu, but I can't shake the feeling that there's something up with the white-haired young man. It takes almost 30 seconds for Memory Magic Cut to switch targets. In a battle, such time doesn't exist. Why don't you save one of the spots for Qian Yu and the white-haired young man?"

Lin Yuan's gaze moved to Zong Ze. "Big Brother Zong, the best way to tackle the situation is to kill Yan Ling. Once she's dead, the connection will be broken. But there's also another option. This would be to kill You Changjian. Without the Gorgon Teeth, the Gorgon Threads and Gorgon Clam might be able to continue working together, but the effects will not be as serious. However, as per the third request we made, we can't attack You Changjian before we kill all his other teammates. Ergo, the only thing we can do is target Yan Ling!"

The five of their minds were linked.

Zong Ze was not stupid. He was a top young expert from the Radiance Federation and had high battle intelligence. Thus, he immediately understood what Lin Yuan meant.

He took a deep breath and replied, "Yan Ling is the heart of the connection. She will definitely be guarded by the rest."

Zong Ze paused for a moment before he continued. "Leave Yan Ling to me! As long as the rest of you can restrain two of their members, I will try to kill Yan Ling while she's only being protected by two people." Re𝒂𝒂d the latest stories 𝒐n nov𝒆

Zong Ze's expression was relaxed when he said this, but he had actually made the grave decision of putting his life on the line.

Zong Ze was not just replying to Lin Yuan but was also making a declaration to his other teammates.

He was not just saying that he would try his best but issuing an iron order to himself that he would carry out even if it cost him his life.

Lin Yuan heard the resolution in Zong Ze's voice.

Spirit Boiling Paralysis would only cause Lin Yuan's body to be unable to move, but it would not prevent him from summoning feys and using abilities that did not require movement.

Thus, he was unbothered by the effects of Spirit Boiling Paralysis.

Lin Yuan released Chimey.

In the Command Phoenix New Day Sparrow state, Chimey was a sound- and light-type fey.

But when it turned into the Non-Burning Nirvana Sound Sparrow, it would be fire- and sound-type.

When Chimey was in the Non-Burning Nirvana Sound Sparrow state, it was extremely compatible with Zong Ze's abilities.

Moreover, the sun in Chimey's body would be able to greatly raise the effects of fire-type abilities of fire-type feys.

When Chimey used Double Sun Reins, it would be able to sing to the sun to borrow its energy to replenish itself.

Chimey would be able to use this to continuously enhance the Fiery Sky Hou.

Zong Ze, Gao Feng, Liu Jie, and Liu Yifan saw a sparrow appear in front of them.

It had a large fan of tail feathers that was covered in sun patterns. There were a total of 99 suns on its golden tail.

Two tail feathers were blue and much longer than the other tail feathers. These two tail feathers had misty chords strings on it that resembled that of a zither.

The colors blue and gold were perfectly melded together on the bird.

The sparrow flapped its wings, and golden birds appeared, circling around the gold and blue sparrow.

There were numerous phoenixes among the flying birds, and they created a symphony of phoenixes and birds.

1746 Fire Lava Sand Insect

Such a sight was too far from what was seen during a fey's evolution. Alll 𝒍𝒂test nov𝒆l𝒔 on novelb𝒊n/.c𝒐m

In fact, it went beyond the understanding of most spirit qi professionals.

The sparrow bloodline was considered one of the more inferior avian-type fey bloodlines.

So why was it able to evolve to involve the phoenix bloodline?

The audience on Star Web was watching the fight with their breaths held as they prayed for the five members of the Radiance Federation team.

They could not help but be mesmerized by the beauty of the sparrow fey.

Mr. Money: Damn! We're finally seeing the real form of the phantom image of the girl with golden birds flying around her! It's actually a sparrow!

Blowing Wind: The sparrow-species fey's appearance is too shocking! In the previous battle, Black summoned a purple butterfly. Is it possible that it's the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly? Both the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly and this sparrow fey are on the same level! This sparrow fey is probably the most beautiful avian-type fey!

Mu Likes Eating Fish: This is ridiculous! Black's fey are already overwhelmingly strong! How can they be so beautiful too?

Black Pill: If I may give my two cents, the blue and gold sparrow should be the evolved form of the blue sparrow that had appeared with Black previously! Am I looking at Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess' true form?

Bai Hao's chest contracted when he saw Chimey. He knew that Chimey was about to re-enter the battle.

When he first found out that Sparrow Voice Loli Goddess was an avian-type fey, he had found it hard to digest this fact.

But now, he had accepted this reality and regarded it as the love of his life.

Immediately after summoning Chimey, Lin Yuan instructed it to transform into the Non-Burning Nirvana Sound Sparrow.

The new sun entered Chimey, and a gossamer shroud appeared over its body.

Lin Yuan ordered it to land on Zong Ze's shoulder before he said, "Big Brother Zong, Chimey will stay with you."

Next, Lin Yuan turned to Liu Yifan and said, "Big Brother Liu Yifan, instruct the Peach Prosper Jay to use Elite Guard Return so that it can use Burning Thearch Will to give Zong Ze a boost of power. This way, he'll be able to use that attack."

Due to the tight time frame, Liu Yifan had told the team about the Peach Prosper Jay and the Gem Witch's abilities and exclusive skills.

The battle had started immediately after he was done with the introduction.

Liu Yifan understood Lin Yuan to a certain extent and had watched the fight between Lin Yuan and Han Qi.

He had not expected that Gao Feng's sacred source lifeform would be able to solve the problem that had plagued him.

This was great!

Although he did not know what abilities the Memory-Consuming Eight Tunes Box had, the fact that it could limit not just one but two sacred source lifeform abilities was enough to prove that it was very powerful.

Liu Yifan had heard from Ji Changdeng that Cicada Song had called his disciple's sacred source lifeform the strongest support-type sacred source lifeform he had ever seen.

Now, he knew that it had not been an exaggeration.

Liu Yifan nodded and said, "When Zon Ze is attacking, the Peach Prosper Jay will instantly use Elite Guard Return to complement him. Hopefully, we'll be able to kill Yan Ling. However, out of the five of them, which two members should we help Zong Ze to restrain?"

Liu Yifan actually had full authority to issue commands. But he transferred the yoke of authority over to Lin Yuan because he did not understand the abilities of his teammates' sacred source lifeforms.

Since he had given up authority, he was now a mere member of the team.

He would run all decisions by Lin Yuan first because it was important that a team only had one voice leading them.

Lin Yuan replied without hesitation, "Since Gao Feng can break the connection between Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian, the three of them will be thrown into a state of panic. Without their connection, they'll all be at risk of danger. At that time, Big Brother Zong can feint an attack on Cai Huo first. Since the connection is dependent on all three of them, it would be incomplete if any member is missing. Thus, regardless of the fact that Yan Ling is more important, the team will rush to protect Cai Huo from the feint attack.

"I think that there's something special about the white-haired young boy. The four of us will restrain Qian Qu and the white-haired boy. In the midst of the panic, Big Brother Zong will handle Cai Huo and Liu Changjian. The Gorgon Teeth's second ability Teeth's Gift will enable it to give a portion of its power source to a target. The target will temporarily gain one of the Gorgon Teeth's abilities. If the Gorgon Teeth gives the ability Cracked Body Remolded to Yan Ling, she won't die immediately, even when her body is destroyed. She will have a chance of regeneration if she receives healing.

"At that time, Big Brother Zong will use the Heaven Crimson Fire's flame angels to attack Yan Ling. Yan Ling will stop the Gorgon Clam from using Spirit Boiling Paralysis in order to regenerate herself. In that seam of time, I will use the Sword Skill I used in my battle against Big Brother Zong."

Zong Ze nodded.

Lin Yuan's plan involved three facets in helping Zong Ze.

Zong Ze had decided to put his life on the line because he was the only one out of the three who was skilled at individual combat.

The transformation of the Fiery Sky Hou's bloodline had not reached Desolate but had reached Truly Barren.

Besides the Red Plum Falling Fire, the Fiery Sky Hou had obtained control over another two types of top-grade strange flames.

If the Fiery Sky Hou could launch an attack that compressed the three types of top-grade strange flames, even Myth III feys would struggle to make it out unscathed.

This was Zong Ze's ultimate weapon.

The moment Lin Yuan spoke, Liu Jie summoned a giant tangerine-colored insect-species carcinoma fey that resembled a sand insect. This used up all the remaining spiritual energy in Liu Jie's body.

This insect-species carcinoma fey was five meters long, making it the largest known insect-species carcinoma fey.

Lin Yuan learned that it was called the Fire Lava Sand Insect through True Data.

It favored holing itself up in the cracks of lava rocks where it would slumber away. While it was sleeping, it would release a terrifying amount of heat in its body, triggering a devastating volcanic eruption that would continue until it awoke.

1747 You Don't Have What it Takes to Walk Over!

When the giant volcano appeared in the far north region, it erupted continuously for almost two years.

As a result, the entire climate of the region had changed drastically, and the three cities in the region were also seriously affected.

At that time, Zuo Ming had gone to personally handle the matter.

He found many tropical plants growing on the surface of the ice.

!

This was enough to show how terrifying the Fire Lava Sand Insect was.

The Fire Lava Sand Insect was rare and was able to produce serious effects by itself.

The Fire Lava Sand Insect that Liu Jie possessed was the one that Zuo Ming had found in the north region.

However, it had only been pinnacle Silver grade when Zuo Ming found it. Now, it was Diamond/Legend.

Liu Jie planned to use the Fire Lava Sand Insect to create an active volcano and use the fire-elemental energy to aid Zong Ze. Nêww 𝒄hapters will be fully updated at (n)ov(𝒆)

Since this battle was taking place in reality in the Radiance Federation, Liu Jie was very reluctant to use such a radical method that would harm the Radiance Federation's earth.

The earth that the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect had contaminated was very nutritious for insect-species carcinoma feys but would result in the ten square kilometer battleground needing to be redone after the fight.

All the contaminated earth would have to be shipped and handled elsewhere. If even a handful was left behind, it would contaminate the rest of the earth.

At first, the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect had been the furthest extent that Liu Jie was willing to go.

But now, Liu Jie knew that Zong Ze's attack would be the defining move that made the difference between their loss and victory. At the same time, it would also decide if the Radiance Federation would be able to safeguard its honor.

Hence, after careful consideration, Liu Jie eventually decided to summon the Fire Lava Sand Insect.

Liu Jie said, "Black, the Fire Lava Sand Insect can produce a volcano of around 500-square-meters wide. It has been tortured by the Insect Queen's spiritual energy all this time and is beyond sleepy. If it's allowed to slip into a rock crack, it will definitely fall asleep in less than ten seconds. Find two lava rocks to create a crack that the Fire Lava Sand Insect will be able to snuggle into. Before Zong Ze strikes, I will instruct the Insect Queen to stop torturing the Fore Lava Sand Insect with its spiritual energy and coax it to sleep."

All of them were willing to scrap the bottom of the barrel for the sake of Zong Ze's attack.

At that moment, five figures appeared within the sea of flowers in the distance.

Lu Ou led the group. But unlike before, there were now four sharp horns jutting out of his head.

This sight left a deep impact on Lin Yuan, Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, Zong Ze, and Gao Feng.

Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, and the rest had not had much interaction with devils. However, Liu Yifan had plenty of experience with them.

He had witnessed the terrible might of devils during the last Major Federation Meeting, where he had participated as a substitute.

He knew that the young man who had fused with a devil and now had four horns sprouting from his head had definitely formed a contract with a higher devil.

Liu Yifan's expression turned stern.

In order for him to possess a higher devil despite only being a B-rank spirit qi professional, the higher devil had to be one of the seven major devils from the Demon Church.

The seven major devils were the equivalent of the feys with the Desolate bloodline.

However, the Peach Prosper Jay had only recently reached Desolate. Thus, there was still a ways to go between it and one of the seven major devils.

After all, there was a long way to go between a fresh Desolate bloodline and pinnacle Desolate.

Given that the Freedom Federation was even willing to send out such a figure, it meant that they intended to mercilessly kill all of them.

According to the information he received from the members of royalty, the people they should be the most cautious of were supposed to be Qian Yu, Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian.

Yet, it turned out that Lu Ou was the Freedom Federation's true trump card.

Luckily, the Radiance Federation also had their own trump card in the form of Black.

Even until now, Liu Yifan could not see through Black.

As the five people from the Freedom Federation drew nearer, Lin Yuan suddenly found himself unable to move.

Lin Yuan immediately knew that Yan Ling had instructed the Gorgon Clam to use Spirit Boiling Paralysis.

He had sensed Red Thorn's rage some time ago when the Freedom Federation team was ripping apart the sea of flowers.

Morbius had already sensed the three sacred source lifeforms' abilities, so Lin Yuan did not order Red Thorn to repair the sea of flowers to continue attacking the other team.

However, Red Thorn had become accustomed to walking on a bed of roses and could not stand being treated in such a way.

If Lin Yuan had not stopped it, Red Thorn might have swallowed tens of the Eyes of Relinquish and unleashed a devastating calamity.

Lin Yuan did not tell Zong Ze about this, but he had also done so in order to help Zong Ze with his imminent attack on Yan Ling.

When Qian Yu spotted the Radiance Federation team, he strode forward and shouted over to Liu Yifan, "I knew that you would choose a formation battle. However, a formation battle is useless against us!"

Liu Yifan did not waste time replying to Qian Yu. With a wave of his hand, he summoned the Gem Witch.

Even after he summoned the Gem Witch, Qian Yu continued blathering on.

As such, Liu Yifan said, "Even if we don't know the full ins and outs of each other, we've still crossed swords on numerous occasions. If not for the mysterious methods of the three people behind you, you would never have made it here in half an hour."

Liu Yifan's words had zero intention of insulting Qian Yu.

Qian Yu did not have the ability to wipe out insect-species carcinoma feys.

If someone else on their team had not used another method to kill the Parasite Decay Locusts, Liu Jie's other insect-species carcinoma feys and the insect army below the sea of sand would have resulted in a stampede.

In such a circumstance, there was no way for Qian Yu to make his way over to the Radiance Federation team within half an hour.

Cai Huo, Yan Ling, and You Changjian had been suppressed by Qian Yu the entire journey. Their displeasure toward Qian Yu was about to overflow.

Liu Yifan's words had the hidden meaning of acknowledging Yan Ling, Cai Huo, and You Changjian's contribution to the team.

After hearing what Liu Yifan said, the three of them subconsciously straightened their postures.

Meanwhile, Qian Yu's countenance darkened.

He saw Liu Yifan's words as insulting.

Qian Yu sneered. "Since we've met, let's not waste time and get into it!"

He barked at the Cambria Abundant Fish, "Cambria Descend!"

In an instant, an ocean of water-elemental energy burst out from within the giant armor-skinned fish.

1748 Red Flowers in the Water!

Although Lin Yuan's body became paralyzed at the same moment that he saw Qian Yu, he had already used True Data to check on the giant armored fish behind Qian Yu.

Lin Yuan thought, I can't believe a fey's bloodline can return so far into its ancestry.

Long Tao's Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus had 'mosasaurus' as part of its name. Similarly, Qian Yu's Cambria Abundant Fish had 'cambria' in its name.

As the sea released by Cambria Descend flowed out, the humid forest became bone-chillingly cold.

!

If Liu Jie's insect-species carcinoma feys had not absorbed all of the elemental energy in the area, except for fire-elemental energy, the sea would have drowned the entire battleground.

Nonetheless, the water plowed over toward Lin Yuan, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, Gao Feng, and Liu Jie.

Lin Yuan and the rest knew that they could not enter the water under any circumstances.

Otherwise, the pinnacle Myth II Cambria Abundant Fish would trigger the water and rip all of them apart.

There was no way the bodies of spirit qi professionals would be able to hold up against the attack of a fey that had created and was controlling an entire territory.

Thus, Lin Yuan injected a large amount of spiritual power into the Source Sand underground.

Almost 1,000 meters underground, the Source Sand created a wall of sand in an instant.

Immediately after, lines of chain blades rose appeared on the wall. They formed strong pillars that fortified the wall of sand. As such, they would not fall under the water pressure.

After one wall of sand appeared, more walls forced their way out of the flat sand.

Qian Yu smiled menacingly and said, "Stupid tricks! Cambria Abundant Fish, use Hegemon Water Pressure!"

The Cambria Abundant Fish's body immediately turned purplish-red, and the aura of a hegemon from the Cambrian age swept through the sea.

The Cambria Abundant Fish took a deep breath, and the entire sea shrunk.

Soon, the Cambria Abundant Fish opened its mouth, and a beam of light as blue as water shot out at the walls of sand.

Lin Yuan noticed that the impact of the water had cracked the radium surface.

He immediately became certain that the pinnacle Myth II Cambria Abundant Fish's ability was stronger than that of Endless Summer when it had been Myth III.

One of the reasons for this was that Endless Summer was a support-type fey. Secondly, it also involved how Qian Yu had nurtured the Cambria Abundant Fish.

It was difficult to imagine how many resources Qian Yu had poured into the Cambria Abundant Fish to result in such a severe return to ancestry.

Lin Yuan knew that if the Cambria Abundant Fish used Hegemon Water Pressure another two times, the radium chain blades would snap, and the walls of sand would be washed away.

However, the Radiance Federation team would not sit back and allow the Cambria Abundant Fish to release a string of attacks.

When the Cambria Abundant Fish used Cambria Descend, Liu Jie instructed the Insect Queen to recall the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect.

The Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect's strength lay in how it cooperated with other insect-species carcinoma feys.

The opponent had killed the Parasite Decay Locusts, and some of the ground that had been contaminated by the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect had been washed away by the sea produced by the giant fish.

If the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect was killed, the Spirit Guards did not have any replacement.

Meanwhile, the Spirit Guards still had two more of the Parasite Decay Locusts.

Moreover, the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect had created enough contaminated earth for the insect army's utilization.

After recalling the Earth-Wrecking Old Burial Insect, Liu Jie raised his hand and tossed out the Quiet Floating Hat Insect that he had used against Long Tao.

The Quiet Floating Hat Insect's strength lay in its ability to turn all bodies of water its tentacles came into contact with into glue. This would give it control over the water territory and the feys within it.

However, the Quiet Floating Hat Insect needed to be protected to give it the chance to unleash its true power.

Before it had the chance to produce insects and generate glue, it had almost no way to protect itself.

If Qian Yu noticed that the Cambria Abundant Fish was being targeted, the Quiet Floating Hat Insect would immediately be killed by the water currents.

Thus, Liu Jie hid the Quiet Floating Hat Insect deep in the sand and delivered his thoughts to Lin Yuan through their mental link.

Lin Yuan used the sand to protect the Quiet Floating Hat Insect while it produced young insects near to the water.

The young insects' feelers glued the entire sea of sand together. Vissit n𝒐velbin.c𝒐m for 𝒏ew 𝒏ovels

The small insects reached out through the sand and quickly turned the water produced by the Cambria Abundant Fish into glue.

The water was being sustained by the water-elemental energy from the Cambria Abundant Fish's body.

The water-elemental energy was over ten times more concentrated than in nature. Thus, the glue from the Quiet Floating Hat Insect was also even stickier.

Qian Yu had noticed this but ignored it.

He had recognized the Quiet Floating Hat Insect.

If he had encountered the Diamond X/Legend Quiet Floating Hat Insect in an expansive sea, he would have turned tail and fled.

However, this body of water was relatively small.

Even if the entire territory of water turned to glue, the Cambria Abundant Fish could easily struggle and free itself from the glue trap.

The Cambria Abundant Fish was of a higher grade than the Quiet Floating Hat Insect.

What Qian Yu needed to do now was to instruct the Cambria Abundant Fish to direct the water at the walls of sand until they collapsed and the other team drowned.

However, something unexpected occurred.

The sea of flowers that had been submerged underwater did not wither.

Rather, numerous two to three-meter-tall red flowers grew out from the sea of flowers.

All the red flowers had strange gill-shaped petals. When they opened, they revealed five to six-meter-long lamellas. As such, the flowers resembled jellyfish.

The flowers did not attack immediately.

Rather, they were lined up neatly as though they were waiting for something.

This situation made for a terrifying sight.

1749 Feys that Make No Sense!

Qian Yu immediately ordered the Cambria Abundant Fish to use Water Explosion Ice River.

A river of ice sealed in all the red flowers.

However, it did not end there.

The red flowers released digestive fluids that spread throughout the territory of water.

!

The digestive fluids of Red Thorn's child ramets were extremely poisonous and corrosive. They could even corrode metal spiritual ingredients.

The corrosive properties spreading throughout the entire water territory did not affect the Cambria Abundant Fish, but Qian Yu, Cai Huo, You Changjian, and the rest all felt as though knives were stabbing them.

The Gorgon Teeth sustained the damage while continuously using Cracked Body Remolded.

You Changjian sensed he had already used up half of the spiritual power in his body.

He looked at Qian Yu and gestured at him twice.

A look of indignance immediately spread across Qian Yu's face.

He was about to instruct the Cambria Abundant Fish to use Cambria Descend when he suddenly steeled himself and exclaimed, "Cambria Abundant Fish, use Cambria Tide and Tail of the Fish King!"

When the Cambria Abundant Fish used Cambria Tide, the walls of sand on Lin Yuan's side seemed to turn to a shore.

Small waves rolled across the sea.

The territory of glue created by the Quiet Floating Hat Insect also became a part of the tides.

The tides smashed through the chain blades and rushed toward the Radiance Federation team.

It was as though the sea would swallow Lin Yuan, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng at any moment.

The five of them had already come up with a way to deal with the Cambria Abundant Fish's attack.

Liu Yifan intended to use the miniature Peach Prosper Jays to defend his teammates.

Qian Yu was indeed skilled at fighting. However, Liu Yifan could defend just as well as Qian Yu could attack.

Thus, at the exact moment that the water made contact with Lin Yuan, an enormous blue lotus leaf appeared under Lin Yuan's feet.

This lotus leaf seemed to become the source of water for the entire area as it absorbed all the attacking waves.

While the water was being absorbed, two types of flower buds appeared on top of the blue lotus leaves.

The smaller of the two flowers bloomed, and the aura released dazed the Cambria Abundant Fish.

The large light blue flower bud did not show any signs of blooming. It was as though it had not absorbed enough water-elemental energy.

The changes below Lin Yuan's feet not only shocked his teammates but Lin Yuan himself was also astonished.

Looks of disbelief also appeared on the faces of Qian Yu, Lu Ou, and the rest.

None of them understood what was going on.

Although Qian Yu and Lu Ou were geniuses, they did not have the right to receive the blessing of Heavenly Family Feys.

The two of them might not know what was going on, but Li Yang and the Goddess of Mercy were members of the Freedom Federation royalty. Hence, they were aware of what had just happened.

Li Yang's gaze fell on the Radiance Federation's royalty as he said, "Doesn't such a technique verge on cheating?"

The Spacetime Elder had been nursing a grudge against Li Yang for years.

Li Yang had killed one of the Spacetime Elder's long-time subordinates in a public fight for resources.

The Spacetime Elder hissed. "Is there something wrong with your eyes? It's clearly the blessing of a Heavenly Family Fey. It can only be attributed to Black's own capabilities. The Freedom Federation is free to receive blessings of its own. Even if this was actually the Major Federation Meeting, it's not considered cheating, even if one has the blessing of every Heavenly Family Fey. It's all attributed to their own abilities!"

Li Yang scoffed but knew that Qian Yu was in a sticky situation.

Qian Yu's talent lay in his affiliation with power offense feys. He could contract any power offense-type feys. Vissit n𝒐velbin.c𝒐m for 𝒏ew 𝒏ovels

But for some reason, ever since the Goddess of Mercy started nurturing Qian Yu, she only let him contract water-type source-type lifeforms. As a result, his combat style was very skewed.

Now that Black had the blessing of a water-type Heavenly Family Fey, only water attacks that had Creation Breed power and above would have an effect.

Moreover, such blessings would cover a certain area.

If Black and his four other teammates stuck close together, they could also benefit from the protection.

After the water-elemental energy that had been meant harm Lin Yuan disappeared, the large blue lotus leaf and flower buds vanished as well.

Lin Yuan had completely forgotten about Blue Lotus' blessing.

From now on, any water-type attack would be deflected by Blue Lotus' blessing.

When Qian Yu saw You Changjian urging him, he finally relented and removed the territory of water created by the Cambria Abundant Fish.

Otherwise, Qian Yu would have wanted to use the Cambria Abundant Fish to attack Black a few more times to force more of his techniques out. He wanted to know how Black was managing to stand toe-to-toe against him.

After checking on the Cambria Abundant Fish, Lin Yuan's gaze shifted to Lu Ou.

Liu Yifan had already mentally communicated with his four teammates that the four horns on Lu Ou's head were proof that he had contracted one of the seven major devils.

What Lin Yuan did not understand was why there was a duplicate of Lu Ou next to him.

Out of curiosity, Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the duplicate Lu Ou.

His eyes soon widened, and an incredulous expression appeared on his face.

Lin Yuan could sense that Lu Ou was a B-rank spirit qi professional.

Normally, he should not be able to contract feys that were beyond Diamond X/Fantasy V. He should not be able to own a Myth Breed fey.

So why was this fey that Lu Ou was using beyond this limit? Moreover, its abilities and exclusive skills were very special!

Lin Yuan felt that this fey's abilities and exclusive skills surpassed that of a regular fey.

If a comparison had to be made, it would be comparable to a fey like Chimey that had managed to evolve itself to the point that it was able to produce its own sun or Genius that could communicate with the heavens.

As long as this fey was around, this battle would be a tough one.

However, Lin Yuan could not concern himself with this for now.

He immediately shared the Disaster World Faceless Beast's abilities and exclusive skills with his four teammates.

[Disaster Warning: Place a curse on a target in the form of a warning. The extent that the target is affected by the curse depends on the strength of their spiritual energy.

[Disaster Heart: Wish a curse on a target. The effects of the curse will magnify and corrode the target's soul.

[Heart Stolen Soul Photographed: After Disaster Heart curses the target's soul, it can enter the target's body and use its soul to control the target's body.

[Deepened Curse Imprint: Magnify the effects of the curse on the target and bewitch the target's mind, soul, and spiritual energy simultaneously.

[Steal the Fate of a Nation: If it can influence the fate of a country that sits upon a certain area of the earth, the fate can be stolen. The price of this ability is the burning up of one's lifespan.

[Fate of Chaos: Absorb the fate of the ground it is present on. The fate can be used to enhance the effects of its abilities.

[Payment in Life: Use its lifespan to investigate the lifespans of other targets. If its own lifespan is sacrificed, it can take away another's lifespan by touching the target.

Now that they knew what the Disaster World Faceless Beast's abilities and exclusive skills were, Liu Yifan, Zong Ze, Gao Feng, and Liu Jie were all as stunned as Lin Yuan had been when he first saw the data.

They never expected such a fey to exist in the world.

Liu Yifan was also shocked by how Black managed to read the abilities and exclusive skills of a Myth Breed fey with only one glance.

None of the five members of the current team of Radiance Envoys was a Creation Master.

Liu Yifan was unclear on what Creation Masters were capable of.

Nonetheless, he doubted that even a Class 4 Creation Master would be able to read a Myth Breed fey's abilities and exclusive skills with one look.

Zong Ze, Liu Jie, and Gao Feng were not as befuddled as Liu Yifan as they had seen Lin Yuan become champion of the Martial Arts Stage at the Guard Ye Banquet.

Even during the Guard Ye Banquet, Zong Ze was able to reach the level of a new Class 4 Creation Master if he used his secret weapon.

Yet, he still lost to Lin Yuan.

He had taken almost ten minutes longer than Lin Yuan.

This made Zong Ze aware that Lin Yuan's Creation Master level was much higher than his own.

Now, all Zong Ze could tell was that the duplicate of Lu Ou was a fey.

In order to read a Myth Breed fey's abilities and exclusive skills, Lin Yuan had to have reached pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master.

After momentary astonishment, the expressions of the four men turned austere.

Disaster World Faceless Beast and Steal the Fate of a Nation could both affect the fate of the Radiance Federation.

Hence, under no circumstances could the Disaster World Faceless Beast be allowed to use those abilities.

As such, they needed to end the battle as soon as possible.

Now, Lin Yuan knew that the Disaster World Faceless Beast could be Suzerain X/Myth I despite Lu Ou only being a B-rank spirit qi professional because it was the child.

Through the ability Child and Mother Double Body, it could break through the limit by transferring some of its energy into its mother's body.

Both Disaster Warning and Disaster Heart had curse effects. One of them was related to verbal cursing, while the other involved bewitchment cursing. One of them targeted spiritual energy, while the other targeted the soul.

Spirit qi professionals that were below B-rank would not be able to set up strong defenses for their souls.

If the Disaster World Faceless Beast used Disaster on any member of the Radiance Federation team, even if it was Liu Yifan, it would be successful.

Although Lin Yuan had always been confident that he would be able to fend off attacks on his soul, he was unsure if Calm Mind would be able to fend off the soul-corroding effects of Disaster Heart.

Curse-type feys were extremely rare.

The Disaster World Faceless Beast was curse-, spiritual-, and soul-type.

This was the first time that Lin Yuan was encountering a soul-type fey.

The Disaster World Faceless Beast's mother was faceless beast species.

This meant that the Disaster World Faceless Beast was also walking a path that had never been recorded in history before, just like Chimey was.

Heart Stolen Soul Photographed would be able to strengthen Disaster Heart.

It cursed and took control of the target at the same time, turning the target into its puppet.

Deepened Curse Imprint would be able to magnify the effects of the curse while damaging the target's mind, soul, and spiritual power at the same time.

It would complement the effects of the Disaster World Faceless Beast's curses, causing Disaster Warning and Disaster Heart to take effect faster.

Blessing of Mother's Body was a summoning ability. It could not only allow the Disaster World Faceless Beast to gain the benefits of the mother's spiritual power, soul, and spirit but could even summon the mother if its bloodline was ignited.

Lin Yuan did not know what power the Disaster World Faceless Beast's mother had.

However, one thing that could be certain was that the mother was stronger than the child.

This ability had to be kept in mind.

Faceless Appearance was the reason the Disaster World Faceless Beast currently looked like Lu Ou.

The Disaster World Faceless Beast now had all of Lu Ou's powers.

Fate of Chaos and Steal the Fate of a Nation were very similar to Chimey producing the sun and Genius using its tail to communicate with the heavens as they were also abilities that feys should not possess.

Payment in Life was a deadly attack that would kill a target, but it would cost the Disaster World Faceless Beast its lifespan.
