Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2050
2050 Pilgrimage Corpse Bird
White Speak sensed the strength of the attack and immediately placed itself in front of Lin Yuan.
To the shock of the elderly man, White Speak opened its jaws and swallowed the strange gray and brown bird’s attack.
When White Speak opened its mouth again, a white beam of energy with streaks of gray and black shot out toward the strange gray and brown bird, piercing it clean through from head to tail.
The remainder of the beam of energy shot toward the elderly man.
!!
After this attack, White Speak became even more certain that the strange gray and brown bird was a dimensional lifeform. This was because White Speak had strongly sensed source-type power in the attack.
White Speak thought that its attack would have ended the strange gray and brown bird’s life.
Yet, the strange gray bird that had been pierced through from head to tail was completely unaffected.
To White Speak’s shock, the bird folded its wings in front of the elderly man.
Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the strange gray and brown bird.
The strange gray and brown bird had already reached Eternal so the Gold Morbius could not check on it.
However, Lin Yuan still discovered that it was called the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird.
From Morbius’ sensing, Lin Yuan could tell that the strange bird’s energy core was in its abdomen.
White Speak had not struck that area.
Moreover, Lin Yuan felt that the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird’s intelligence was too low for a Class 14 dimensional lifeform.
Compared to marsh dimensional lifeforms, it had around the same intelligence as the Class 3 Marsh Crocodile.
Normally, feys’ intelligence increased along with their grades.
Lin Yuan had never seen a lifeform of Eternal and above that had such a low intelligence.
The Pilgrimage Corpse Bird had used all of its power in spraying the mist.
White Speak used its own ability ‘replay’ to add the power of the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird’s attack to its own.
There was no way that the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird could use its body to sustain the attack and a portion of the energy crashed into the elderly man, sending him flying back by over 20 meters as blackened blood exploded out from his lips.
It was obvious that the color of the blood was unusual and it had the same aura as that of the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird.
Normally, as the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird’s contractor, the elderly should not have been affected by the attributes in the attack even if his body could be injured by it.
When the elderly man emerged from the ball of flesh, his pale hands already appeared very unhealthy.
An Eternal expert’s body should not have such an appearance.
Now, Lin Yuan understood that the elderly man’s pale body was likely due to him having contracted the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird.
The Pilgrimage Corpse Bird’s bloodline had changed the elderly man’s bloodline and made him appear like a dead man walking.
Although Lin Yuan’s mother had given birth to him, he was also a transmigrator.
According to the rare and unorthodox information that Lin Yuan had from his previous life, two words immediately came to his mind—the undead and zombies.
If there truly was a sixth type of dimensional rift in the world, it was likely that it would be linked to those words.
At that moment, the elderly man sent out by the Truth Association to the Divine Wood Federation was boiling over with shock and fury.
Lin Yuan planned on taking the chance to squeeze the elderly man for information
There was a lot of intelligence that could only come from the mouth of the enemy. Their eyes and expression would give Lin Yuan the answer he wanted.
“If Fifth Page Truth were here, he would step in to help you sustain the next attack!”
Lin Yuan’s eyes were locked on the elderly man’s eyes.
All of the Divine Wood Federation’s faction spies were confused by what Lin Yuan said. They did not understand who the Fifth Page Truth that Lin Yuan spoke of was.
Meanwhile, the elderly man’s expression changed drastically. He now had an expression of disbelief.
Without the elderly man having to respond in any way, Lin Yuan knew that he was acquainted with Fifth Page Truth.
It seemed that the Truth Association was indeed linked to Fifth Page Truth.
He had already gained enough information from the elderly man.
This elderly man did not have the authority to know what secret weapons Fifth Page War had.
Lin Yuan said softly, “Leave this elderly man’s corpse intact. Then, take control of the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird.”
The moment the last word fell from Lin Yuan’s lips, a water current with faint lines of hair flew out of the pink and gold gem at the corner of Lin Yuan’s eye.
Pink and gold flames arose all over the surface of the water.
The water current shot into the elderly’s body with no intention of being stopped.
This elderly Eternal expert lost his last breath while in a fit of shock and rage.
When the water current left the elderly man’s body, it turned into delicate pink and gold chains that wrapped snugly around the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird.
Lin Yuan intended to carefully examine the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird later to understand the inner workings of its body.
Red Thorn had just abandoned the thearch-class weapon Han Tianhe and the new Tongue of Relinquish had not grown out yet.
Thus, he needed some time before he could take control of the elderly man from the Truth Association.
At that time, the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird would also fall under Red Thorn’s control.
Given the intelligence of the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird, it was unlikely that it had sensed that anything was wrong with its contractor.
Lin Yuan could not help but feel that the Pilgrimage Corpse Bird would allow him to unlock a secret that he had never been able to touch in the past.
From the throngs of firepower that Yang Hanxian had brought in the form of imperial guards, to the later arrival of Immortal and Eternal experts, the events of the past 20 minutes had completely changed the horizons of the members of the native factions of the Divine Wood Federation.
The factions in Sacred Forest City no longer had any desire to fight back against Sky Creation.
Frankly, it was normal for upper-ranked factions of a federation to fight for resources.
However, these factions were very xenophobic.
For example, when they were angered by the knowledge that the Yang family was being controlled, they were also angry and looked down on the Yi family for climbing the ranks with Sky Creation’s help. Slowly, they even became indignant at being ruled by the Yi family.
However, after the power and deadliness that Sky Creation had demonstrated, any leader of a faction with intelligence would know that there was no point in being angry and resisting.
Rather, when the Divine Wood Federation’s experts were weakening, they could only be able to survive the feral Iron Hammer Federation by clinging tightly to Sky Creation.
It was unlikely that Sky Creation would sit by and watch as the Divine Wood Federation met their doom after they helped the Yi family assume control!
