Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 771: Red Thorn’s Request to Evolve

When Lin Yuan returned to the mansion, he saw Liu Jie packing up the dishes on the table.

Liu Jie noticed Lin Yuan’s return and said, “Lin Yuan, Master asked me to go to the Spirit Guards’ land so that she can help evolve my sacred source lifeform. I may have to stay there for the next few days. I’ll return before the Guard Ye Banquet so that we can go together.”

Liu Jie had told Lin Yuan early on about how he had contracted a sacred source lifeform, but he did not tell Lin Yuan about its abilities to prevent Lin Yuan from worrying.

As such, there was no reason for Liu Jie to hide his reason for going to the Spirit Guards’ land.

Lin Yuan walked over and helped Liu Jie pack the food. He also prepared himself to immediately combine the Fairy’s Heart with the Flower Brocade Pearl after transforming Red Thorn in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.

After the Flower Brocade Pearl became a fairy-type lifeform, it would be able to produce a high number of ripe child ramets.

Although Lin Yuan had been relying on his own strength to advance himself, he had never truly pulled away from the Moon Empress’s influence.

Without the Moon Empress, he would have died at the hands of Cheng Wu or in the water world dimensional rift.

Before, he had evolved several valuable feys in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, such as the Mountain River Eternal Life Carp.

However, he never thought of giving those items to the Moon Empress because the Radiant Moon Palace had feys that had just as good or even better abilities than the Mountain River Eternal Life Carp.

Although Lin Yuan would be able to show his sincerity to the Moon Empress by giving her the Mountain River Eternal Life Carp, it would be useless to her.

When Lin Yuan decided to nurture Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls, he had planned on nurturing 100 of them to give to the Moon Empress.

The 100 Golden Lotus Brocade Pearls were going to be Lin Yuan’s gesture of sincerity.

It would also be the first proof of Lin Yuan’s improvement over the last eight months.

After he sent Liu Jie off, Lin Yuan flashed himself into the Spirit Lock spatial zone.

Lin Yuan was stunned the moment he entered the Spirit Lock spatial zone because he saw the Mouth of Relinquish in the slumbering Red Thorn trembling violently.

The trembling Mouth of Relinquish was covered with concentrated plant energy.

When the plant energy exploded around the Mouth of Relinquish, it seemed that it was going to rip out of the Mouth of Relinquish.

However, the Mouth of Relinquish was a resilient wall that kept the plant energy secured inside.

Lin Yuan quickly went up to it and placed his hand on the part of the Mouth of Relinquish that was not covered with teeth as he circulated his spiritual power to sense the changes taking place in Red Thorn.

He could not contain the delight that rose in him.

The plant energy came from the Source Seed that Red Thorn had absorbed.

Lin Yuan did not expect so much plant energy to come from one Source Seed.

He immediately took out the third Source Seed and dropped it into the half-open Mouth of Relinquish.

The plant energy had been stuck in the Mouth of Relinquish, but now, the sleeping Red Thorn was like an awakening beast that was ferociously roaring.

The violent sound waves coming from the Mouth of Relinquish made Lin Yuan’s ears ring.

Lin Yuan watched as the Mouth of Relinquish opened and closed continuously and felt that it resembled a sommelier that was savoring a divine wine.

He could sense Red Thorn’s plea through his connection with its bloodline.

In the past, Red Thorn’s pleas were only made while it was evolving. But this time, it had issued a plea after consuming two Source Seeds.

However, this plea was different from those that Red Thorn had issued in the past. Previously, the pleas were asking Lin Yuan how it should go about unlocking a new ability.

But this time, it was asking Lin Yuan which of its two abilities it should evolve.

Lin Yuan pondered over the query.

It had not been easy for Red Thorn to progress to where it was now from the Source Seed it had started out as.

Red Thorn was Lin Yuan’s first source-type lifeform and was his earliest partner after Chimey and Genius.

It was also the result of his parents offering up their lives and service.

Lin Yuan had invested a lot of effort into nurturing Red Thorn.

The first direction that Lin Yuan had taken when nurturing Red Thorn was to supply it with energy by allowing it to consume flesh.

This allowed Red Thorn to become a predatory plant and caused it to grow the Mouth of Relinquish.

The second direction Lin Yuan had taken was apparent in Red Thorn’s digestive ability.

Its digestive ability allowed Red Thorn to grow a corrosive cavity that complemented the brutal vine ramet and caused it to grow the Tongue of Relinquish.

This direction fulfilled Lin Yuan’s initial dream of developing Red Thorn’s combat style.

The style came from countless improvements.

The third direction that Lin Yuan had evolved Red Thorn was its method of proliferation.

With the first and third evolutions, Red Thorn was now a fey that could fight by relying on a colony.

Spore Growth allowed Red Thorn to fight using its sea of flowers.

Lin Yuan felt that Red Thorn’s third evolution was the main one.

The third evolution allowed Red Thorn to gain Spore Growth and also connected Red Thorn’s first and third evolutions.

The three evolutions together formed a unique combat system.

As for the fourth evolution direction, Lin Yuan had evolved Red Thorn’s storage ability.

This increased Red Thorn’s stamina and allowed Spore Growth to expand its reach.

Essentially, Red Thorn’s abilities improved overall and raised its tolerance in battle.

The Eye of Relinquish that had emerged from the fourth evolution not only increased Red Thorn’s storage ability during battle but also helped Red Thorn expand its reach. The leftover Eyes of Relinquish would be sent to the sea of flowers through the vines connecting Red Thorn and the child ramets.

From this, the blood energy stored in the Eyes of Relinquish would become the source of strength for Red Thorn to attack its enemy.

In battle, Red Thorn had always relied on its corrosive digestive fluids and vines to cause damage.

When faced with a weak enemy, Red Thorn could attack from multiple directions. However, it would be stuck when faced with a strong enemy.

Nonetheless, when the Eyes of Relinquish were used in battle, they would be able to cause damage against strong feys.

This would increase the sea of flowers’ strength and attacking power, and the strong enemies would also be at Red Thorn’s mercy.

Lin Yuan could only choose two of these four impressive evolution directions to continue evolving Red Thorn.

He felt stuck in a dilemma and did not know how to go about making a choice.
