Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 1976

1976 Morbius’ New Spirit Lock!

Besides Forbidden Growth, Lin Yuan was more interested in Peak Sturdiness.

Although it required an increasing amount of spirit qi, vitality, and wood-elemental energy to nurture the Perfect Touch Wisteria, using an increasing number of resources could be used to make the vines sturdier and stronger.

This was a low-cost method for people who did not lack resources.

A spirit qi professional had a limit to the number of feys he could contract. Hence, only by focusing on unlocking the potential of every fey could they increase their power to the greatest extent.

!!
This was the path that Lin Yuan was going down.

Liu Jie was confused when he saw the way Lin Yuan’s eyes were shining as he stared at the Perfect Touch Wisteria, but Yi Huailong managed to guess what was going through Lin Yuan’s head.

He explained to Lin Yuan, “Young Master Chu, the Perfect Touch Wisteria is a very rare fey here, but this one has mutated. The regular Perfect Touch Wisteria’s Normal ability is called Wild Growth, which would only allow it to automatically comprehend a Willpower Rune but not break through the limit of its contractor. If my memory serves, the mutated Perfect Touch Wisteria should have been captured in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm by the Bai family.”

Lin Yuan could sense that the Perfect Touch Wisteria did not have the Sacred Wood bloodline. Thus, he could not help but ask a follow-up question, “Are there regular plant-type feys like this in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm?”

Yi Huailong lowered his voice and replied, “You aren’t aware of this, but there are many plant-type feys in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm. Every time someone who enters the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm fails to obtain a plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline, they will be able to choose three regular plant-type feys. The Bai family intentionally gave up on obtaining a plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline because of this Perfect Touch Wisteria’s Forbidden Growth ability. Miss Bai should know more about the matter than me!”

When Bai Qinghuan heard herself being mentioned by Yi Huailong, she hurriedly spilled everything she knew about the Perfect Touch Wisteria. “The Bai family is indeed the one who put the Perfect Touch Wisteria up for auction. It was initially meant to be the fey of the Bai family’s oldest grandson, but its Elite ability mutated when it evolved. It changed from the original Vine Lock to Peak Sturdiness.

“Peak Sturdiness will magnify the depletion of energy. Moreover, the Perfect Touch Wisteria normally gains Tool Transformation as its Bronze ability. It will be able to transform into a fitting soft armor. The Bai family does not think that using a large number of resources to produce soft armor is worth it. They would rather have a less-costly soft armor made from the skin of a Myth Breed fey and metal-type spiritual ingredients.”

Right after Bai Qinghuan was done speaking, Yi Huailong said in a gloating manner, “The Bai family used to have three pinnacle Class 4 Creation Masters, but my father eliminated two of them during a fight between our two families. As such, the Bai family has always lacked Creation Master resources, and it’s understandable for them to be unwilling to spend too much on the Perfect Touch Wisteria.

“Furthermore, even if the Perfect Touch Wisteria can break through its spirit qi professional’s limit, a Class 4 Creation Master will only be able to promote a spirit qi professional to pinnacle emperor-class at best. Whether they’ll be able to evolve into thearch-class will depend on their fate and luck. The resources needed to nurture the Perfect Touch Wisteria to pinnacle Myth Breed will be enough to evolve two other plant-type feys to pinnacle Myth Breed. So, the Perfect Touch Wisteria is a bona fide black hole!”

Despite knowing that Lin Yuan possessed Class 5 Creation Master resources, Yi Huailong did not think that the Perfect Touch Wisteria was cost-effective.

To S-rank spirit qi professionals, Forbidden Growth would have negligible advantages. Moreover, it would require twice the amount of resources just to increase the vines’ sturdiness and healing ability. Just the thought of it brought tears to one’s eyes.

However, Yi Huailong had no idea that what he and Bai Qinghuan said only made Lin Yuan want the Perfect Touch Wisteria even more.

At the same time, Lin Yuan could not help but be amazed.

Any fey’s function and value were determined by its environment.

If the Divine Wood Federation’s Hundred Sequence was now just for show and Divine Wood Envoys were chosen from amongst them to participate in the Major Federation Meeting, the Perfect Touch Wisteria would pose unlimited strategic significance. It represented so much strategic significance that it was worthy of being a representative fey of the Divine Wood Federation that safeguarded its honor. It had even greater strategic significance than that of Island Whales, which required more resources to be nurtured.

Lin Yuan had no lack of resources, and he could produce the best quality of spirit qi, vitality, and wood-elemental energy that the Perfect Touch Wisteria needed.

Lin Yuan’s secret weapon was his two precious instruments.

However, precious instruments were not like feys and could be restricted.

During the fight against the Freedom Federation envoy group, as per the rules of the Major Federation Meeting, Lin Yuan victor’s right allowed him to set the rule banning the use of precious instruments by his opponents.

It was possible for the Perfect Touch Wisteria to reach Immortal or even Eternal.

At that time, the combat power that Lin Yuan had traded for using resources would be comparable to that of the Radiance Federation, Azure Federation, and Freedom Federation.

More importantly, the Perfect Touch Wisteria’s Bronze ability was most likely to be Tool Transformation.

Although Bai Qinghuan and Yi Huailong had mentioned numerous times that the Perfect Touch Wisteria had mutated, mutations were anchored in the original abilities.

Thus, even if the Perfect Touch Wisteria’s exclusive skill mutated, it was likely that it would be linked to Tool Transformation.

Lin Yuan had encountered many feys similar to the Perfect Touch Wisteria such as the Vitality Sloth that was most likely to develop the exclusive skill Quickened Rest.

Once Lin Yuan formed a contract with the Perfect Touch Wisteria and evolved it to Bronze, so it gained the exclusive skill Tool Transformation, Lin Yuan’s physical defense would be raised significantly.

Currently, Lin Yuan’s physical defense depended on the Source Sand, and it found itself stretched thin more and more often.

After all, it was only to be expected that as Lin Yuan became more powerful, the enemies he faced would also increase in strength.

It was on Lin Yuan’s to-do list to strengthen his physical defense.

Now, the appearance of the Perfect Touch Wisteria made it likely for him to be able to tick off this task.

Even if the Perfect Touch Wisteria did not gain Tool Transformation as its exclusive skill, he would still have more chances to encounter a surprise with the three options presented.
