Chapter 3088 Endless Summer's Abyssal World Plan
When Endless Summer heard that Lin Yuan wanted her to go back and think before making a decision, she had no intention of doing so.
Endless Summer firmly said, "Young Master, I've already thought it through. I'm very willing to go to the Honor Absent Parliament to explore the abyssal world for the sake of Sky City's development. Please let me go as soon as possible!"
Lin Yuan could tell from Endless Summer's expression that she was serious about this matter.
"Since you've made your decision, I'll make the arrangements as soon as possible. Don't worry. Since I've arranged for you to go, I can definitely protect you. I'll also ask Winter to give you some life-saving methods. Even if you encounter danger in the abyss, you'll be able to deal with it!"
Not long after Endless Summer left, Lin Yuan received Sun Yin's message.
"Young Master, now that Traveling Dragon Palace has resolved all the problems in Diverse City, I would like to ask if you want to support the development of Traveling Dragon Palace in Extreme Wood City. Traveling Dragon Palace does not have any foundation in Extreme Wood City. It will be very difficult for Traveling Dragon Palace to gain a firm foothold in Extreme Wood City. Not only do we have to invest a large amount of resources in Traveling Dragon Palace, but we also have to provide them with powerful combat power as support. I have already met with Traveling Dragon Palace's First Palace Master, You Tao. The various factions in Extreme Wood City are treating Traveling Dragon Palace much worse than expected."
Apart from these reports, Sun Yin also detailed the predicament Traveling Dragon Palace would face if they wanted to develop in Extreme Wood City.
Even You Tao, who wanted Traveling Dragon Palace to expand beyond regions, gave up on this idea.
Lin Yuan thought for a moment and felt that Traveling Dragon Palace still needed to head to Extreme Wood City to develop.
This was because once Traveling Dragon Palace gained a firm foothold in Extreme Wood City and developed in the two giant cities, the significance of Traveling Dragon Palace would be completely different from now.
Furthermore, Traveling Dragon Palace had already invested a lot of resources in Extreme Wood City. If they gave up halfway, the resources they invested would be wasted.
Before he controlled Traveling Dragon Palace, its development in Extreme Wood City involved transferring the resources from Diverse City to Extreme Wood City.
However, after he took control of Traveling Dragon Palace, he cooperated with Zhao Chen and allowed Traveling Dragon Palace to develop in Extreme Wood City. It was equivalent to the power of Diverse City invading Extreme Wood City.
Lin Yuan did not believe that Traveling Dragon Palace had not been suppressed by Extreme Wood City's City Lord. If not for the City Lord's suppression, those forces that were enemies with Gray Smoke Stronghold would have taken the initiative to contact Traveling Dragon Palace.
When Lin Yuan asked Sun Yin to negotiate with Traveling Dragon Palace, he had promised You Di that he would help Traveling Dragon Palace gain a firm foothold in Extreme Wood City. No matter the reason, if he retreated now, it would be equivalent to breaking his promise.
Even if You Di and You Tao did not say anything on the surface, it was still very likely that they would fall out with each other.
Lin Yuan replied to Sun Yin.
"Traveling Dragon Palace will continue to develop in Extreme Wood City according to the original plan. Tell You Tao and You Di that it will not change. Previously, I asked you to come into contact with Traveling Dragon Palace because you were the only one by my side who was able to do this. Now, I'll give you a choice. Do you want to continue staying in Traveling Dragon Palace or return to my side? If you choose to return, I will arrange for a Grade 5 Creator to take your place."
After Sun Yin sent Lin Yuan a message through the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower, he had been waiting on the side, hoping that Lin Yuan would contact him immediately.
Upon seeing Lin Yuan's message, Sun Yin hesitated for a moment before hurriedly replying.
"Young Master, compared to wandering outside, I prefer to stay by your side and accompany you at all times!"
Upon seeing Sun Yin's message, Lin Yuan prepared to send Si Xue to Diverse City.
Si Xue was an intermediate Grade 5 Creator. In terms of grade, she was a minor grade higher than Sun Yin.
Although it was only a small grade, it made Si Xue and Sun Yin's statuses look very different to outsiders.
The reason Lin Yuan valued Sun Yin so much was that her potential was the strongest among all the intermediate Creators under him.
Moreover, Lin Yuan preferred people like Sun Yin who had a backbone to those who would lower their heads casually.
Lin Yuan releasing Sun Yin was equivalent to giving Sun Yin power.
Under such circ.u.mstances, Sun Yin was still willing to return to his side. Not only did this mean that Sun Yin was worth nurturing, but it also meant that Sun Yin was very smart. This made Lin Yuan even more willing to spend resources to nurture Sun Yin.
The Moon Empress had been evaluating these Creators who had joined Sky City. Among the Grade 5 Creators, Si Xue was the most uneasy. She was clearly not used to living in North of the Lonely River.
This did not mean that Si Xue was not easy to control. After contracting the Lifespan Mouse and having her holy spirit controlled by Lin Yuan, Si Xue had absolute loyalty.
Since Si Xue, an intermediate Grade 5 Creator, was not used to living in Sky City, he would let her go to Diverse City to handle some matters.
Even though Si Xue and Zhuo Yan were not on good terms, Lin Yuan did not intend to let Zhuo Yan stay in Diverse City for long.
After Zhuo Yan helped Zhao Chen evolve his feys, Lin Yuan would let Zhuo Yan return.
It was a good opportunity for Traveling Dragon Palace to get in touch with a new Grade 5 Creator. It would also let Traveling Dragon Palace know what kind of power the faction they joined contained!
After communicating with Sun Yin, Lin Yuan began to think about which fey he should nurture first.
In the end, Lin Yuan chose Purple Afterglow. This was because Purple Afterglow had plans to reproduce with the Kill Food Sky b.u.t.terfly. Letting Purple Afterglow's grade advance further before reproducing would help ensure the strength of the bloodline of Purple Afterglow's descendants.
Among all of Lin Yuan's feys, Purple Afterglow was the first to display breeding intentions.
Just as Lin Yuan was about to summon Purple Afterglow, Zhuo Yan sent him a message.
[Zhuo Yan]: Lord, the City Lord of Diverse City has made many requests. None of these were easy to achieve. I spent a lot of effort fulfilling them. However, it will take some time to concoct the spirit fluid. I might only be able to return to the North of the Lonely River in three months.
Zhuo Yan had offended Lin Yuan before she was recruited by him. She feared that Lin Yuan would hold a grudge against her.
On the one hand, Zhuo Yan was trying to claim credit. On the other hand, she was reminding herself that Zhao Chen would have to pay a huge price for this cooperation in the future. Otherwise, it would be too easy on Zhao Chen!
Lin Yuan did not mind Zhuo Yan's previous conflict with him. At that time, Zhuo Yan had yet to join his ranks.
In Lin Yuan's opinion, it was normal for a Grade 5 Creator to have a temper.
[Lin Yuan]: Zhuo Yan, you've worked hard. When you return, whatever resources you need will be given priority. Didn't you say that you were very interested in Alchemists? I happen to have the complete Alchemist legacy on hand. I can let you read it.
Zhuo Yan was shocked when she saw Lin Yuan's message. She admired Lin Yuan's way of doing things from the bottom of her heart. This feeling of being rewarded as long as she contributed to the faction was very satisfying.
After talking to Zhuo Yan, Lin Yuan summoned Purple Afterglow. Among all of Lin Yuan's feys, Purple Afterglow not only desired to reproduce the most but also preferred to live in human form.
When Lin Yuan saw Purple Afterglow, he realized that it looked better than he remembered. Could it be that the nourishment of love could really improve one's looks?
Lin Yuan used True Data to check on Purple Afterglow.
[Fey Name]: Purple Afterglow Beauty G.o.ddess b.u.t.terfly
[Fey Species]: Flash-b.u.t.terfly species/scaled-b.u.t.terfly species
[Fey Grade]: World Emperor (9/10)
[Fey Type]: Spiritual/Soul
[Fey Quality]: Elementary Divine Kingdom
[Divine Kingdom Grade]: Miniature
Abilities:
[Silence Scale Powder]: Special scale powder with the ability to silence is released and any target that comes into contact with the scale powder will be unable to use spiritual power abilities. The scale powder will also be absorbed into the target's spiritual power. Each time the target uses spirit qi, their spirit qi will end up cracking.
[Flas.h.i.+ng Scale Dance]: Its images will be formed from the scale powder released into the air. It will be able to flash back and forth between itself and the formed images. While it is travelling, it can absorb energy from its surroundings to quicken the production of scale powder.
[Scale Light b.u.t.terfly Image]: Scale powder in the wings will be used to refract light. When light fills its reflection, its charm will be boosted and it will gain absolute control over b.u.t.terfly-species feys.
[Beautiful G.o.d Hallucination]: When a target is being attracted and sees one as a beautiful G.o.d, one will be able to adjust according to the target's features and pick a lifeform to turn into the target's definition of unsightliness. If the target and the lifeform have a positive connection, it will disappear momentarily. If they do not have a positive connection, the target will attack the lifeform.
[Species Praised Beauty]: When attracting a target and receiving its wors.h.i.+p, the target's species will also be affected and instinctively feel positively about the Purple Afterglow Beauty G.o.ddess b.u.t.terfly.
[Beautiful G.o.d Cutting Wings]: Flap its wings to produce sequential cutting attacks. A special Beautiful G.o.d Engraving will be formed on the target's body. Every engraving requires 16 cutting attacks to be formed. The target with a formed Beautiful G.o.d Engraving will trigger its own emotions to the greatest extent. Anything related to energy will be prevented from moving in and out of the target's body.
[Beauty a.s.sessment Plundering]: When one's beauty stupefies a species and takes over that species' a.s.sessment of beauty, it can set the standard with its own beauty and become the definition of beauty for that species. Besides itself, the species would not see any other lifeform as beautiful. It would not detest and be repulsed by lifeforms that previously met their standards of beauty.
[Beauty Dispersion]: When other feys feel love for it, their amazement and recognition of its beauty will turn into a special scale powder that can be used to increase the power of other b.u.t.ter-species lifeforms. (This is only effective on b.u.t.terfly-species lifeforms with inferior bloodlines.)
[Feathered Insect Command]: It will have stronger mesmerization effects on insects and lifeforms with wings. Insects and lifeforms with wings will also easily begin wors.h.i.+pping it.
[Beautiful Spirit Transformation]: All other lifeforms' recognition of its beauty will be sealed in and used to transform its body. It will also use its dreams as a weapon to take control of the faith, spirit, and soul of other species.
Exclusive Skill:`
[Scale Powder Halo]: The scale powder has strong reflective abilities and the target that lays eyes on the scale powder will be affected by the reflection. The target will start to feel dizzy and experience temporary blindness.
[Soul Beauty G.o.ddess]: By activating the power of the spirit and soul, the beauty will be increased to a limitless level. The target will be attracted and fall in love. The target will want everything of its object of its love on its own body and the target will want to collect everything connected to the object of its love.
[Beauty Reaches Every Species]: Each time it receives the recognition of a species and becomes their standard of beauty, its charm would be eternally strengthened.
[Extreme Mesmerization]: When the mesmerizing ability is used on an ent.i.ty, it can give up its scale powder in exchange for boosting its mesmerizing ability.
[b.u.t.terfly Bloodline Gift]: A part of its bloodline will be gifted to other lifeforms and allow them to gain some traits of its bloodline. The bloodlines of other b.u.t.terfly-species feys will be activated to a greater extent.
[Spirit Arrival Application]: Choose a lifeform that has received its gift. The lifeform's life will be sacrificed. It will temporarily be able to use the lifeform's body as a medium to arrive (The duration of arrival is related to the concentration of bloodline in the lifeform's body).
Divine Kingdom Abilities:
[Beauty Seal]: Make a judgment about beauty. It will a.s.sign a value to every lifeform's level of beauty. If other lifeforms' beauty value is lower than its own, it can use its divine kingdom to seal the other lifeform's divine kingdom (Only a maximum of two ent.i.ties can be sealed. When sealing the two ent.i.ties, it will not be able to use any other ability apart from its divine kingdom ability).
Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel helpless. It seemed that Purple Afterglow hadn't made any effort to improve its strength during this period.
Not only had the grade of its divine kingdom not changed, but it also hadn't reached World Emperor X, remaining at World Emperor IX.
It appeared that Purple Afterglow had focused its time solely on its partner.
Lin Yuan didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
Each of his feys had a different personality. Some were driven to work hard and increase their strength, while others, like Purple Afterglow, were not as enthusiastic about it.
Lin Yuan wouldn't force Purple Afterglow.
With Lin Yuan's physique and the faith power acc.u.mulated by the Realm Abyss Red Lotus, it would be easy to increase Purple Afterglow's strength.
If Purple Afterglow could produce offspring with its own bloodline, it would be its way of enriching Sky City's power.
