Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 1812

1812 Wailing Snake

However, even up to the end of the battle, Lu Ou did not summon the higher devil he had contracted.

It seemed that Lu Ou had still intentionally hidden his power during the battle.

The Moon Empress seemed to read Lin Yuan’s thoughts as she smiled at him and explained, “Little Yuan, Lu Ou did not hide his power. He chose to rely on Qian Yu during the battle. Given that Qian Yu had an 8 Stars sacred source lifeform, it was right for Lu Ou to depend on him. Lu Ou had transferred all of his higher devil’s roots’ energy to Qian Yu. Even if he had summoned the higher devil, it would not have had much combat power left.

“Moreover, if my guess is right, Lu Ou’s higher devil is the Glutton. It is one of the seven major devils. The power of such a higher devil is one of the Freedom Federation’s greatest secrets. Once it’s summoned, the Bamboo Monarch, Chef Supreme, and I will immediately recognize it. Hence, Lu Ou must have been ordered in advance not to summon his higher devil. But two years later, his higher devil will have grown and become worthy of being your rival.”

!!
The Moon Empress had witnessed Lin Yuan’s power during Capture the General and realized how rapidly he was growing.

But at the same time, she also knew how strong the seven major devils from Demon Church were.

Lin Yuan nodded at the Moon Empress.

Although he had reached the peak amongst his peers, he never lost his sense of respect because he knew that his opponents and enemies were not his peers at all.

The Moon Empress said that those who could contract sacred source lifeforms would have souls that were 80 points strong. Only those with souls that had reached 200 points would be able to contract devils as their masters.

After speaking to Morbius, Lin Yuan found out that both of his souls could contract two sacred source lifeforms each.

Even if one of his souls had not reached 200 points, both his souls together would equal to more than 300 points.

Hence, Lin Yuan felt confident that he would be able to contract the devil as its master.

When the Moon Empress saw Lin Yuan’s brow furrowed as though he was deep in thought, she thought that her words had given him pressure.

This was not what she had intended.

She knew that he had to have gone through a tough time in order to attain the power he had today.

Although the Moon Empress dared to gamble on her own life in order to increase her power, she did not want Lin Yuan to have a difficult time.

The Freedom Federation’s Demon Church might have its seven major devils but the feys with the Barren bloodline from the Barren Mystic Realm did not pale in comparison at all.

Although none of the feys with the Barren bloodline were born with the Desolate bloodline like some devils could be born as higher devils, they had outstanding growth potential.

There was no way that the Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation would offer outstanding devils and feys with the Barren bloodline in a gamble with each other.

The Freedom Federation had initially offered the Dominant Body Dagger Devil while the Radiance Federation had offered the Carnage Frog.

The Carnage Frog had the ability to drain the energy of a target of similar power as it that it was currently attacking. It would be able to use the energy it drained to increase its own power.

The Carnage Frog’s ability would be extremely useful when it was weak as it would be able to roll grades to fight at a higher level.

However, once it reached Myth Breed, it would have to attack Myth Breed feys in order to use its ability.

A sea of resources was needed to nurture a Myth Breed fey. Normally, it was almost impossible for someone to be able to afford to nurture the Carnage Frog.

Its conversion rate was very low, at only about 2% to 5%. This meant that the Carnage Frog would have to kill 20 other Myth Breed lifeforms in order to double its power.

Moreover, there was also a time limit for the boost in power because it was not using its own energy.

The energy would eventually dissipate into the surroundings.

Once the Carnage Frog’s power reached Immortal or Eternal, it would be impossible for it to find lifeforms of the same power to kill.

The Radiance Federation had deliberated for some time before they decided to sacrifice the Carnage Frog.

There was no gamble that had a 100% winning.

Thus, they needed to be prepared.

But eventually, Lin Yuan led the Radiance Federation’s team to defeat the Freedom Federation’s team.

But they could not give the Carnage Frog to Lin Yuan.

Although no feys with the Barren bloodline were born with the Desolate bloodline, some of them caused the environment around them to wither when they were born. If these feys were properly nurtured, they could evolve into the Desolate bloodline very quickly.

The Wailing Snake that appeared inside Lin Yuan’s ring was an example of such a fey.

After being nurtured by the Moon Empress, the Wailing Snake was already showing signs of evolving to the Desolate bloodline. However, it still needed some time before it could cross that level.

“Little Yuan, the fey with the Barren bloodline in your ring is called the Wailing Snake. It causes moisture to dry up wherever it goes. With the Wailing Snake, it will be easy for you to create land masses in the marsh world. There are also rankings between feys with the Barren bloodline. The Golden Wings and the Wailing Snake are on the same level. The Wailing Snake now belongs to you. You can give it to anyone you want.”

The Moon Empress paused before she continued. “Because of the pure spirit qi you gave Mystic Moon, his power has experienced a breakthrough. He might not be a member of royalty, but Wen Yu’s feys’ abilities make her a guaranteed member of the next batch of Radiance Knights. Thus, Mystic Moon can go and obtain a fey with the Barren bloodline for Wen Yu. If you give the Wailing Snake to Wen Yu, the fey with the Barren bloodline that Mystic Moon retrieves will fall in your possession.”

Before the Moon Empress spoke, Lin Yuan had been mulling over who he should give the Wailing Snake to.

Because of the Insect Queen, Liu Jie could not contract a fey with the Barren bloodline despite being a disciple of royalty.

Both Wen Yu and Chu Ci were the best candidates to receive the Wen Yu.

Chu Ci was still young, and it would put a large strain on her soul power and spiritual energy to contract a fey with the Barren bloodline. Thus, there was no rush for her to do so.
