Chapter 310: Chapter 308: Upgrading to the Next Level
No one knows what is happening deep within the Main Demon Plane.
Lords continue their demon hunting, and mutual conflicts as they should.
As if nothing ever happened, the Demon Plane and the myriad realms return to a state of peace.
…
…
In the blink of an eye.
Over half a month passed.
After more than twenty days of unremitting efforts and careful accumulation, Lin You finally managed to amass 78 million Magic Energy and received a prompt.
[Research success for Blade Grass’ advanced form, please check within your territory.]
This prompt was heavenly music to Lin You.
After swiftly clearing the skeleton demons before him, he summoned back his species and quickly rode the Demon Emperor Dragon back to the Holy Sanctuary.
For twenty days, in order to accumulate Magic Energy, he didn’t participate in any large-scale conflicts but instead focused on hunting demons in the Land of the Dead.
During this period, he even successfully killed an S-level and an A-level Tier Eight Lord Demon, acquiring several treasures.
Unfortunately, the attributes of those treasures were not remarkable, so he sold them for Magic Energy instead.
Plus, with the help of Shifang Pavilion selling off Tier Eight equipment during this time.
This was how he obtained his current 70 million-plus Magic Energy.
Regrettably.
During such a long time, he didn’t encounter a single Undead Mage with the “Undying Domain” skill.
He had to let Heaven-Devouring copy a decent group attack skill to use temporarily.
Now, upon suddenly hearing the success in species research, he had no interest in hunting demons anymore and hurried back on the Demon Emperor Dragon.
The speed of the Demon Emperor Dragon, now at Tier Eight, was extremely fast, nearly twice that of Tier Seven.
Especially when activating the Rapid Shadow skill, it turned into a blur, sweeping across the sky, causing other Lords below to glance up in awe.
“What incredible speed!”
“This almost compares to the speed of a Tier Nine, right?”
“Could it be a Tier Nine Lord passing by?”
“This aura is more terrifying than an ordinary Tier Nine!”
“Luckily, he didn’t notice us…”
Typically, Tier Nine existences explore deeper in the Demon Plane and rarely involve themselves in the conflicts of these low-tier Lords, not even considering it.
However, it didn’t stop them from feeling fear, hiding like mice before a cat, hurriedly concealing themselves and summoning back their species, afraid of being discovered.
Flying high in the sky, Lin You naturally noticed them too.
However, he no longer valued the resources from these Tier Seven Lords.
Moreover, he had more pressing matters, with no time to waste here.
After all, in two days, the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms would open.
Entering the Tier Eight battlefield for the first time, unsure of what it would be like, it was best to prepare early.
Whoosh!
A sharp breaking sound cut across the sky.
The afterimage of the Demon Emperor Dragon quickly skimmed over the desert area, arriving above the Primordial Area.
Seeing the realm entrance appear in his sight, Lin You conveniently opened the Origin Space interface.
[Origin: World Tree (sapling)]
[Category: Plant Type]
[Level: Tier Eight (250/2000)]
[Range: 250 meters]
[Sacred Artifact Effect: 30%/15% (+12.5%)]
[Talent Effect: 4% (+25%)]
[Abilities: Soul Domain, Racial Talent, Summoning Space]
[Introduction: Formed through soul condensation, can evolve into a realm when grown to a certain stage, requires irrigation by Power of Origin.]
[Click here to expand various talents]
Only 150 meters increased in twenty days.
Such a slow pace was excruciating.
Considering the demons within the Secret Realm, he had killed 9 Tier Eight Lord Demons, with an uncountable number of Leader Demons in between.
Even with all that, it only increased by this much; reaching the full value would not be easy.
Just as he was pondering.
The Demon Emperor Dragon had already flown back to the realm entrance, landing on the platform beneath the giant tree.
Soon.
He passed through the entrance, teleported back to his territory.
As soon as he steadied himself, he quickly opened the recruitment interface. Indeed, there was an additional recruitment option besides the Deceit Willow Species under the Tier Eight category.
It was the advanced form of the Blade Grass he previously researched.
[Name: Blood Sword Grass (Ordinary)]
[Race: Plant]
[Level: Tier Eight (0/5000)]
[Power: 1000]
[Constitution: 1000]
[Agility: 1000]
[Spirit: 1000]
[Skills: Hardening, Infinite Reproduction, Flying Leaf Sword Dance (attack includes bleeding effect, reduces enemy’s healing effect.)]
[Introduction: Endless regeneration like wildfire, revives with the spring breeze; Blood Sword Grass possesses extremely strong regeneration abilities. As long as its main body remains, it can continuously reproduce, consuming Power of Nature.]
Reproduction-type plant species still had the low basic attributes, not even meeting the lowest standards of Tier Eight.
However, Lin You was only interested in its skills, so he wasn’t too concerned.
He checked briefly.
Apart from the loss of two Symbiotic Mosses from exploring the Secret Realm earlier, he now had a total of 286 Moss species.
According to the plan, he just needed to create 14 more to reach a total of three hundred.
Thankfully, he had prepared in advance, mutating the Moss army first.
Otherwise, given the 25,000 Magic Energy cost for a single mutation now, he wouldn’t have the extensive resources required.
But creating a dozen or so was still manageable.
With that in mind.
Lin You directly recruited 14 Deceit Willows and started mutating them.
It wasn’t until he spent 52 million and finally completed mutating all Mosses, with 26 million left in his pocket.
Calculating this, it’s an average of less than four million.
The luck’s not too bad.
Next, it’s time to get into the main topic, deport all the Tier Eight Deceitful Species.
Then, after a moment’s thought, recruit 267 Blood Sword Grass one by one and perform mutations on them.
The main target of the mutation is species belonging to the same category as the six royal families.
Or some species like Dandelion, Cactus, Fierce Sunflower, Lantern Grass, which have a low occurrence rate but relatively excellent combat support abilities.
[Mutating Tier Eight Species requires consuming 25,000 Magic Energy, do you wish to proceed with the mutation?]
“Yes.”
[Please select skills and attributes to retain.]
“Retain Infinite Reproduction, attributes random.”
With the sounds of prompts ringing, the glow of mutation keeps flashing, illuminating all around the territory with transparency.
[Mutation successful, skill “Infinite Reproduction” mutates and changes to “Linked Reproduction.”]
Suddenly, a different prompt interrupts Lin You’s action.
He had just undergone mutations just over fifty times and fortunately triggered a skill mutation.
Lin You was pleasantly surprised and quickly opened the interface to check.
[Linked Reproduction: Split and reproduce several entities with the same basic attributes as itself, requires Power of Nature for maintenance, and gains Life Connection, shares life, automatic cancellation if life decreases below 20%.]
“Life Sharing?”
Similar skills had been seen by Lin You before on the two Leader Demons in that cathedral.
Even now he still remembers it very clearly.
Never expected Infinite Reproduction to mutate into such an effect, this makes the species like an unkillable cockroach, doesn’t it?
Moreover, life, which is Constitution, when declines to 20% still automatically cancels the effect, no worries about the entity being implicated and dying.
Considered a very good soft life-saving skill.
Equivalent to a fourfold increase in Life Value.
Unless encountering beings with a much higher level, it’s largely impossible to get instantly killed.
Furthermore, what’s more important is that the skill is inherited exactly by the Ancient War Tree with the toughest and thickest skin!
Simply hit a jackpot.
This upgraded mutated ability indeed did not disappoint him.
Then he continued performing mutations on the remaining Blood Sword Grass.
As long as they are combat species, he would keep them directly.
With this method, almost every three times successfully mutating one, some a little more, some hitting the mark in one shot, generally speaking not much difference.
Unfortunately.
Until he finished reproducing all Blood Sword Grass, there was no new mutated skill appearing again, seems his luck has run out.
After completing mutations, he re-counted the quantity of species.
Ancient Trees: Ancient War Tree x35, Ancient Natural Tree x30
Flower Spirits: Elf Sage x25, Wise One x25
Explosive Mushrooms: Thousand-Change Poison Mushroom x24, Calamity Poison Mushroom x22
Banshee Vine: Corrupted Beldam x18, Fallen Beldam x17, Fearful Beldam x17
Cannibal Flower: Devouring Flower x17
Pea Shooters: Flaming Shooter x12, Ice Shooter x10
Cactuses: Cactus Boxer x10
Dandelions: Blood Gu Dandelion x3
Sunflowers: Fierce Sunflower x3
Lantern Grass: Lantern Grass x2
…
Quite a variety.
With the previously left two Devouring Flowers and one Dandelion, exactly 270 multiplication entities.
Except for Pea Shooters and Lantern Grass which can reproduce eight, the rest reproduce four, meaning the quantity directly quadruples.
Calculating like this, he is equivalent to having more than a thousand Tier Eight species.
Among them, 270 entities even have Moss enhancement, attributes reaching Tier Nine!
Bear in mind.
Even those old Tier Eight Lords, at most only have ten Tier Nine species.
Enough to show how terrifying this strength is.
Definitely counts as a qualitative leap!
This is also Lin You since arriving on this continent, the greatest increase in strength!
One can imagine how excited he is inside.
Unless encountering top talents from various realms, otherwise in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms he can almost walk without hindrance.
Of course.
He won’t be smug about it.
Nor will underestimate the Lords of various realms.
Since he can reach this level, naturally other Lords can also possibly reach.
For example, the children of fortune within realms or adored Great Emperor offspring, the resources invested are unimaginable to him.
Back when he was Tier Six or Seven, possibly there were quite a few rookies rising by luck, easily killed.
But at Tier Eight, things are different.
Those who can ascend to this level are all seasoned and crafty, or they wouldn’t have survived to this level.
So he still needs to remain low-key, not easily revealing all his strength in front of others.
Then catch them off guard and kill them is the way of the king.
“There are a few species slots left, let’s fill them first.”
Lin You glanced at the resource interface, only 700,000 Magic Energy left, almost not enough.
Among the remaining 30 species slots, 11 are for the royal family, two Plant Dragons, Deceit Willow, Ancient Tree of Knowledge.
After thinking for a bit, he swiftly operated on the interface, recruiting 1 of each from 16 planting species.
These planting species are what he took time earlier to study up to Tier Six using the Tower of Species.
Now that Yellow Sand City is rapidly expanding, the demand for seeds has increased, so these species remain indispensable.
As for the extra Symbiotic Moss, let them symbiosis in planting species temporarily, improving sowing efficiency.
Wait until casualties occur in the future, can directly summon to replenish, saving massive time on mutation.
And the remaining three positions, leave them for now.
Use them when needing to recruit other species later.
