2754 Dragon Ascends to the Sky!
Treasures like this that could alter roots always came with danger and a low probability of success.
Yet, they were seen as foundational treasures in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Compared to these treasures, Blackie’s Turbid Spirit Cleansing was much more advantageous!
Firstly, unlike those treasures, when Blackie’s Turbid Spirit Cleansing created a territory to change the root energy of other lifeforms, the lifeforms’ roots would not be damaged.
Moreover, Blackie’s divine kingdom ability only used up its own energy and faith power. This was not a high cost to change the root energy of other lifeforms.
With this divine kingdom ability, Blackie could create unimaginable value for Lin Yuan.
Aside from this divine kingdom ability, the new abilities and exclusive skills that Blackie gained were also outstanding.
The Sovereign ability it gained was called Spirit Dragon Guide. It enabled Blackie to use its true dragon bloodline to affect dragon-species feys in its vicinity. It would guide all the dragon-species feys’ bloodlines to evolve toward true dragon species/spirit dragon species.
With that ability, Blackie was now a master at nurturing dragon-species feys.
As long as they were within Blackie’s vicinity, any dragon-species bloodline that was below Blackie’s own would benefit. If the dragon-species fey happened to share the same genes as Blackie, the bloodline evolution effects would be magnified!
This immediately led Lin Yuan to think of the Spirit Tide Ink Flood Dragons in Submerged Flood Dragon Lake. All of them used to be Spirit-Siphon Goldfishes.
Lin Yuan had been using the Spirit-Siphon Goldfish’s essence blood to enable their bloodlines to transform, and his efforts were finally showing signs of paying off.
However, it required an unimaginable amount of resource wealth to evolve these Spirit Tide Ink Flood Dragons’ bloodlines to the next level. Lin Yuan did not want to spend such a mountain of resources on the few hundred Spirit Tide Ink Flood Dragons.
Although Lin Yuan possessed a large amount of pure spirit qi now and was willing to spend it, he preferred using the resources to nurture experts rather than the Spirit Tide Ink Flood Dragons. The experts would even be able to repay Lin Yuan with a large amount of spirit qi crystals during their growth process.
But now, Lin Yuan could use Blackie’s bloodline to influence the Spirit Tide Ink Flood Dragons and guide them toward evolving to true dragon species/spirit dragon species.
These Spirit Tide Ink Flood Dragons had a similar gene base to Blackie. As such, their bloodlines would skyrocket.
Once Lin Yuan confirmed the range of efficacy of Spirit Dragon Guidance, he would be able to cultivate and evolve an even larger batch of Spirit-Siphon Goldfish.
Due to environmental limitations, the Submerged Flood Dragon Lake in the Return from Faraway Mansion could not house many Spirit-Siphon Goldfish. But once he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he could create a Spirit Dragon Lake specifically suited to the utilization of Spirit Dragon Guidance.
All he needed was to invest sufficient resources, and he would be able to create a scene of thousands of dragons soaring in the sky.
The spirit qi released by feys with the dragon-species bloodline would be able to increase the rate at which the Spirit Qi Imprint accumulated spiritual power. There were many potential benefits.
The High Sovereign ability, Spirit Ability Blessing, was a blessing ability. However, this blessing did not increase the rate at which targets recovered their spirit qi or their spirit qi activity, but rather the target’s spirit qi capacity.
This form of blessing was very rare.
It could significantly increase the target’s endurance during combat! This was because the target usually needed to evolve their grades in order to increase their body’s energy capacity.
Moreover, Spirit Ability Blessing could target multiple targets at once, thereby raising the strength of an entire team.
True Dragon Spewing Breath was an ability that suited all true dragons.
Dragon breath was the strongest combat technique for all dragon-species feys.
Being a water-type fey, Blackie’s dragon breath would cause obliteration effects.
The breath of water-type true dragons was part of the top three true dragon dragon breaths.
Blackie’s exclusive skills raised its combat abilities to a far greater extent than its abilities did!`
Calling All Spirits allowed Blackie to inject its own spirit qi into the environment and call all the spirit qi in the environment toward it to recover its depleted energy.
This exclusive skill could bring almost unlimited energy to Blackie in an environment brimming with spirit qi.
Aside from being able to recover Blackie’s depleted energy, when Blackie’s own energy had stronger control over spirit qi than the other lifeforms in the environment, spirit qi could be extracted from surrounding targets and absorbed by Blackie.
True dragons naturally possessed extremely high dominance.
Moreover, Blackie was a spirit dragon that excelled at controlling spirit qi! It was very unlikely that feys of the same grade would be able to exert stronger control over spirit qi than Blackie!
Only feys of higher levels would be able to exert stronger control than Blackie.
However, such control could only target lifeforms that had spirit qi as their main energy. If their main root energy was not spirit qi, Calling All Spirits would lose its effectiveness.
Between Dragon Breath Support and True Dragon Concealing Spirit, Lin Yuan favored Dragon Breath Support.
As the strongest form of combat technique for dragon-species feys, dragon breath was very violent in its execution.
Dragon Breath Support would allow Blackie to wield its dragon breath in a wider range of avenues during combat. Its dragon breath could be used as armor or applied to a weapon.
When it was paired with Spirit Essence Explosion, it would be able to generate extraordinary effects.
Additionally, Dragon Breath Support could compress multiple streams of dragon breath to cause added damage to targets. This gave Blackie the ability to fight above World Emperor/Divine Kingdom. The other World Emperor/Divine Kingdom feys would be green with envy over this ability!
The Eternal exclusive skill, True Dragon Concealing Spirit, was not bad. It allowed Blackie’s body to be fused into the environment and for Blackie to remain in a concealed state as long as the spirit qi did not disappear. It could even recover its depleted spirit qi while in the concealed state.
This exclusive skill clashed against Spirit Ability Blessing to some extent.
Blackie was already able to use Spirit Qi Imprint to create an environment with a high concentration of spirit qi.
Moreover, Lin Yuan would definitely protect Blackie, a functional-type fey. It was almost impossible for Blackie to ever find itself in danger.
As the Saint of Epoch God Palace, Lin Yuan had Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter protecting him at all times.
While Lin Yuan was observing Blackie, the latter was also serenely surveying itself.
When it sensed the transformation of its bloodline, two gem-like droplets of tears fell from the corner of its eyes. The Spirit-Siphon Goldfish was the most inferior type of dragon-species bloodline. Blackie’s journey thus far had been a tangle of emotions.
However, as a fey that spent a lot of time with Lin Yuan, Blackie did not stand on ceremony with him. Blackie had been with Lin Yuan ever since it gained intelligence. In its eyes, Lin Yuan was no different from its parent.
After Lin Yuan evolved Blackie, he did not intend on nurturing any other feys for the foreseeable future aside from allowing Merciful Foul to absorb the calamity that was sealed off in Tower Canon’s old nest!
Although Lin Yuan had used his own body’s composition to evolve the Jasmine Lily and Blackie, he still used up a considerable amount of its store of spirit qi. His pile of spirit qi crystals was much smaller than before.
Lin Yuan checked the time.
He had spent a little over a month enlightening his birth horoscope in the Returning Saint Pool and almost a month combined evolving the Jasmine Lily and Blackie.
These two months had been spent very fruitfully. Both his own power and foundation had utterly transformed. Lin Yuan really liked this feeling of evolving continuously.
Lin Yuan smiled at Blackie and said, “Blackie, you haven’t had a chance to return to your original form yet. Let me take a look at what your original body looks like now.”
Lin Yuan was certain he would be shocked by the sight of a true dragon.
Blackie let out a loud dragon roar. This dragon roar was clear and elegant but also carried a unique dominance.
Blackie rose to the sky, and all that could be seen was half a tail and a slender leg beneath the misty clouds. There were seven dragon claws on the foot.
Lin Yuan gently stomped his left leg, and six pairs of black wings appeared on his back and carried him up into the sky.
As a birth-horoscope expert, Lin Yuan could fly with ease and was no longer as awkward as king-class experts. However, Lin Yuan was accustomed to using the Source Sand for flight.
Lin Yuan saw Blackie’s curled milky white dragon body that extended thousands of meters. Its whiskers radiantly and majestically adorned its face while resting atop the breeze. Its scales were no longer as sharp as before. Instead, they had a watery transparency.
Lin Yuan was stupefied when he saw the image of Blackie flying.
Autumn and Winter also admired and were amazed by Blackie.
The same thought entered both their minds. This was truly a fey that was personally evolved by Lord Saint. It was remarkable!
Neither of them disturbed the interactions between Lin Yuan and his fey. They only went over to Lin Yuan after he returned Blackie to the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Winter told Lin Yuan everything that had happened and did not hide how the experts from the Sky Beyond the Clouds had tried to spy on this Class 2 world.
When Lin Yuan heard this, he realized that he had been careless.
While helping Green Vine to evolve, he had witnessed the experts from the Sky Beyond the Clouds turning their attention to the main world and attempting to investigate the happenings in the main world. Spring had killed all of them.
After that experience, he should not have allowed the main world to continue attracting attention. If an expert from the Sky Beyond the Clouds truly decided to target the main world, this would likely spell disaster for the main world.
When Winter saw the worried expression on Lin Yuan’s face, he knew that Lin Yuan was concerned for the main world’s safety after hearing what he just said.
Winter hurriedly began explaining, “Lord Saint, even if someone from the Sky Beyond the Clouds truly tries to continue spying on or pay a visit to the main world, we will be able to ensure the main world’s safety, so there is no need for you to be worried!
“Even if a scheme is cooking up in the Sky Beyond the Clouds, it won’t come into play immediately. These matters usually require extensive discussions between multiple parties who will eventually collectively send people to this Class 2 world!”
Lin Yuan nodded.
He did not know Winter well. However, he naturally felt a strange closeness to Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
Moreover, Winter was very dependable and would never lie to him when it came to such matters.
Spring and Summer were done gathering the death aura in the ley lines. The death aura was gathered below the Startling Lines Continent’s sea, where Red Thorn and Silver Corona would be able to absorb it.
Spring and Summer turned the death aura that could not be collected into death aura crystals. When the death aura crystals were buried in the ground, they could form Dead Spirits Wells.
After returning, Spring and Summer bowed to Lin Yuan upon seeing him.
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before handing Merciful Soul to Spring and instructing her to take it to Tower Canon’s fortress so it could absorb the calamity there.
Spring had already told Lin Yuan it would take a considerable time for Merciful Soul to evolve by absorbing calamity. It would only be done in three to five years.
Lin Yuan could not spend the next few years in Tower Canon’s old nest just to accompany Merciful Soul while it evolved.
Previously, Lin Yuan intended to wait until he set his spirit fire alight before he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
At the time, he believed he still had a long way to go before he set his spirit fire alight.
However, after emerging from the Returning Saint Pool, he was now a birth-horoscope expert. He was not at beginner birth horoscope either but was only a step away from reaching the spirit-fire level.
Lin Yuan intended to change the entire main world and unite the dimensional worlds with the human world. This would not only enable both sides to become equal but would also raise their individual resistance. Both sides would then begin improving in the right direction.
Lin Yuan needed to expend significant effort in order to change and improve the main world. Recently, he had been fully focused on this endeavor.
Since Lin Yuan had Winter to take care of the spies from the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he would no longer have to worry on that front!
Firstly, Lin Yuan trusted Winter. Secondly, it was very likely that the continuous evolution of his feys would startle some bigshots from the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Those bigshots were not as easy to handle as Tower Canon. It was unlikely that Lin Yuan had the capabilities to take them on even if he wanted to.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, Lin Yuan did not want to waste time on matters that were beyond his means.
Once the people from the Sky Beyond the Clouds arrived in this world, he would be able to gain a deeper understanding of the Sky Beyond the Clouds through them despite not having been there yet.
