Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 706: The Barren Grotto Continent

Bei Xu had been ensconced in the excruciation of the cold and his injuries as he waited for death to claim him.

When he had been struck in the back by the Underground Shadow Leopard, the agonizing pain and blood-curdling sound of his flesh being sliced open alerted Bei Xu that his spine had probably also been cracked.

He had spent all his life digging in the mines and had experienced countless injuries. Thus, he knew that his injuries were fatal.

Any further struggle was just his natural instinct for survival.

But after his instinct died down, Bei Xu suddenly sensed that he had entered a starlit world.

When he was young, he had heard a legend. It was foretold that the Grotto Continent was just an underground world. The true experts and wealthy would head to the surface to live where greenery existed.

The surface of the Grotto Continent did not have those violent gusts of wind that could strip flesh from bone, nor did it experience extreme temperatures.

There was a federation there called the Fertile Federation. Supposedly, people living in the Fertile Federation could look up and see stars at night. However, this was just a legend that he had heard from his mother when he was young.

After going through cruel daily labor in the mines, Bei Xu had no time to linger on the Fertile Federation and the stars that could be seen there.

Yet, he could not only see stars now, but he was also literally amongst them.

Bei Xu could not help but wonder if this was the afterlife.

Immediately after this thought entered his mind, he realized there was someone next to him. The figure that had condensed from willpowers stared dazedly at him. She spoke with a bird-like voice. “I can actually see color!”

After Yin Lin had finished eating a scrumptious dinner with her parents, her maidservant Sisi had pushed her around the garden.

The blind Yin Lin had spent her days in a wheelchair, and going around the garden had become her favorite activity after reading. The garden was filled with the fragrances of fresh flowers, and Sisi would describe the different flowers to her.

This allowed Yin Lin to interact with a better sensory world.

While she was smelling the irises, she could not suppress the desire to see the world and her willingness to sacrifice anything in exchange.

Perhaps she had been in the garden for too long because as the breeze caressed her, she felt tired.

Slowly, Yin Lin fell asleep.

The moment she fell asleep, she found herself amongst the stars.

The world of darkness that she had known for so long was suddenly replaced with the view of brilliant constellations. There were bronze seats around her, and her surroundings were dotted with stars. There were two enormous constellations in the sky, and a willpower morphed into a person next to her.

There was a man and a woman who looked like celestial beings seated on the golden thrones in front of her. She could see all of this extremely clearly.

Yin Lin could dream but could only experience sound, taste, and see strange shapes that she had imagined. However, she could never dream in color or light.

For someone who had never been able to see, Yin Lin had no concept of color.

But now, she knew that she could.

This confirmed to Yin Lin that she was not dreaming. This was real.

Lin Yuan cocked an eyebrow as he looked at Yin Lin and nodded slightly. She managed to confirm that the world of the Astronomical Parliament was different from reality but was still real, the moment she entered.

Maybe it was more impressive due to her blindness, but Lin Yuan could not help but be impressed at her intelligence.

In comparison, Bei Xu seemed rather dull and even guessed that he had entered the afterlife.

The moment that Bei Xu and Yin Lin were called to the parliamentary meeting, Lin Yuan felt that he was truly like a system that was written about in science fiction novels.

He could faintly guess the morphology of Bei Xu and Yin Lin’s willpowers. He knew their names and a portion of their life experiences.

At that moment, Wen Yu narrowed her eyes and said to Lin Yuan, “The man called Bei Xu is about to die in real life. Thus, his willpower is about to disappear from the parliamentary meeting too.”

Although the parliamentary meeting was separate from reality, the figures of those who entered comprised of willpowers and their soul. It was still connected to the soul and willpowers in reality.

If their body died, the willpowers and soul would also disappear from the celestial world.

Lin Yuan frowned.

While Bei Xu and Yin Lin were busy being shocked, Lin Yuan had already seen a part of their life from their willpowers. It was like he was watching two movies concurrently.

Yin Lin had been cared for her entire life and was treated like a princess. Although she could not see, she led a much happier life than most people.

In contrast, Bei Xu had lived a vicious cycle of a life. When he was not so sick to the point of being immobile, he was laboring away in the mine.

He had escaped from the mine because he had given a quarter of his food to a sick companion.

Life in the underground mine dictated that everyone had to use all their strength to dig even more mines.

Since Bei Xu was one of the people with a better physique, he was given more food.

By giving away a portion of his food without permission, he had essentially lowered his productivity for the next day, which lowered the profits of the mine’s owner.

Lin Yuan could tell from Bei Xu’s willpower that he seemed like a god that was silently looking over the Grotto Continent.

The Grotto Continent was even more barren than Lin Yuan could imagine.

Spirit qi professionals from the Grotto Continent were not like the ones in the Radiance Federation who could seek out high-quality Bronze grade feys.

The normal spirit qi professionals in the Grotto Continent considered being able to contract feys a miracle. They did not have the right to be picky about the abilities and quality of the feys.

It was already extremely rare to be able to find feys in the Grotto Continent.

The rare feys that appeared mostly fell under the control of the elites. They would never be granted to people like Bei Xu, who dug mines.
