Evolution From the Big Tree

Before long, accompanied by fearsome quakes, figures began to appear in front of a giant tree one after another. 

However, as Yu Zi Yu gazed at the bloodied horns of Bull Demon and the blood-red, crystal-like scales of the White Snake, he could not help but sigh.  

Though no words were spoken, he understood how brutal the battles they must have fought by looking at their condition.  In particular, the half-meter long gash on the back of Bull Demon was an invisible statement of the brutality of the battle.

“It’s been hard on you,” a low voice rang in everyone’s mind.

“It wasn’t that hard.” Shaking his head, Bull Demon stepped forward and added, “Master, during this mission, we were fortunate enough to discover an Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine.

Saying so, he recounted their encounter with the Tier-2 Transcendent, Polar Bear, and the subsequent discovery of the isolated island, its lair.

“An Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine…” As Yu Zi Yu listened to Bull Demon’s account, he could not help but squint his eyes.

Indeed, an Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine was more than enough to raise a Tier-2 Transcendent. Furthermore, the world had just witnessed the second round of the Spiritual Energy Tide, which had further quickened the evolutions of everyone and everything.

Let alone Tier-2 Transcendents, even Tier-3 Transcendent were no longer out of the question.

However, they had not expected to encounter a Tier-2 Transcendent in the outskirts of Northern Territories. This was not good news.

Afterall, generally, the outskirts should be relatively safer compared to the inner regions.

The appearance of a Tier-2 Transcendent on the outskirts hinted at how perilous the inner regions could be. Be that as it may, this would not deter Yu Zi Yu from his determination to secure the Ice-Attribute Spirit Stone Mine.

[A rare and precious resource like the Spirit Stone Mine cannot be allowed to fall into the wrong hands!]

With these thoughts in mind, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze returned to the canopy.

*Screech~” With high-pitched, a graceful snow-white Crane flapped her wings, rising into the air.

“Master…” She called out softly as she circled around Yu Zi Yu several times.

This White Crane was one of the earliest avian creatures that had followed Yu Zi Yu. She too had become a Tier-1 Transcendent.

However, this White Crane had a gentle nature and did not particularly enjoy combat.

Yu Zi Yu did not force her either; he allowed her to do as she pleased.

But occasionally, he would assign her to handle simple tasks, just like now.

“Summon Old Ninth and the Spirit Vultures,” Yu Zi Yu instructed.

“Understood, Master.” Happily accepting the order, the White Crane transformed into a streak of white, flying in the direction of North Canyon.

Meanwhile, as Yu Zi Yu’s gaze swept over the others, his Spiritual Energy surged once more.

*Boom!* With a deafening boom, like a crack of thunder, visible emerald green Spiritual Energy surged from Yu Zi Yu’s body.

After a while, much to the joy of Bull Demon and the others, countless emerald green specks, like fireflies, turned into a shower of radiant light, cascading down on them.

Rain of Vitality- A deeper application of Life Essence that, while gentle, can also heal hidden injuries that are not easily discerned, known as internal injuries.

*Moo, moo…*

*Roar, Roar…*

More than twenty Mutant Beasts started roaring and howling in pleasure as they bathed in the rain of light.

At a speed visible to the naked eyes, the injuries on each Mutant Beast slowly started healing.

What was more astonishing was that the auras of many of these Mutant Beasts was also getting stronger.

“You guys have accumulated quite a bit this time.” With a joyful voice, Yu Zi Yu could not help but commend their efforts, looking toward the many Mutant Beasts led by Bull Demon.

A month of battles had led to breakthroughs for some of these Mutant Beasts, and it had also helped others accumulate a solid foundation for their next advancements.

And now, among them, several Tier-0 Level 9 Azure Wolves and a Mutant Wild Boar, who had not yet become Tier-1 Transcendents, had also achieved a breakthrough. Moreover, as if he had discovered something, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze turned to the one leading them all, Bull Demon.

His Spiritual Energy was boiling, and his silky fur was fluttering in the air.

[He is about to break through.]  Impressed, Yu Zi Yu stated in a straight-forward manner, “You won’t be joining the trip to the snowfields.”

“Why, Master?” Bull Demon was momentarily stunned and perplexed.

“You’re about to break through, so why rush there overnight?”

“Wait, overnight?” As if hearing something unbelievable, Bull Demon’s face showed a touch of surprise.

“Yes, overnight.” Re-emphasizing this, Yu Zi Yu looked toward the direction of North Canyon and explained, “Tonight, Nine Tails and Old Ninth, Brewmaster, will set off to directly seize the Spirit Stone Mine.”

“Uh…” Bull Demon froze, realizing that he had underestimated his Master’s determination. 

However, something seemed to occur to him as a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

After a moment, he grit his teeth and suggested, “Master, maybe you should wait for my breakthrough. Having two Tier-2 Transcendents would be safer and more secure, especially against that Polar Bear.”

But before Yu Zi Yu could respond to Bull Demon’s suggestion, a faint voice suddenly resounded, “What’s the matter, Second Brother? Are you underestimating your Elder Sister?”

It was a very classic ‘big sister’ tone, with a touch of charm, but it made Bull Demon turn pale.

That’s because at that moment, he felt the temperature around him rising rapidly.

At the same time, a terrible sense of crisis gripped his heart.

“Well?” Horribly shocked, Bull Demon subconsciously took several steps back.

However, in the next moment…

With a deafening boom, a flaming red streak of light descended from the sky, heading straight for Bull Demon’s previous position.

Moments later, as the ground trembled beneath them, a roaring wave of flames surged through the surroundings.

In a flash, an area of about a hundred meters in diameter was engulfed in endless flames. However, much to the astonishment of Bull Demon and others, these flames did not burn them. Instead, they felt like a warm breeze brushing past them, leaving only a gentle warmth.

And at this moment, the same faint voice echoed once more in the air.

“Ha, it’s been so long since we saw each other. All you can see is Master; you’ve forgotten about your Elder Sister.”

The voice filled with grievance sounded like a woman whispering in their ears, causing many of the Mutant Beasts to shudder.

All eyes turned toward the origin of the voice and saw a Red Fox, bathing in flames, gradually emerging from the fiery sea, making her unhurried approach, treading the air.

With each step she took, a fire lotus bloomed under her feet.

She looked elegant, divine, yet unsanctifiable.
