Chapter 21: Evolving Back to Ancestry Line
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Sharp Rock Bull was trembling as it endured, but even it couldn’t withstand such immense pain.
Lin Yuan felt a considerable pushing force against the hand that was touching the broken horn. Lin Yuan swayed a little, and the pair of horns on the Sharp Rock Bull fell off. Immediately after, a new pair of horns grew out on its head.
Lin Yuan placed his hand back on the little horns before channeling his spirit qi at full force.
When the sky was starting to turn dark, the Sharp Rock Bull’s horns recovered, and they only stopped growing when they reached over one foot in length.
It took nearly seven hours, but Lin Yuan finally healed the severely injured Sharp Rock Bull. Suppose the severely injured Sharp Rock Bull was worth 200,000 Federation dollars. In that case, the current healthy Elite/Epic Sharp Rock Bull could be easily sold on the Star Web for 1,5 Radiance dollars, or 1,500,000 Federation dollars.
This was also why Creation Masters were so respected.
Lin Yuan was still channeling spirit qi into the Sharp Rock Bull as he could feel an obstacle in the dark. As long as he continued channeling his spirit qi, he would be able to smash the obstacle. This Sharp Rock Bull would then undergo a qualitative change.
Lin Yuan was ecstatic as this should be the obstacle blocking Elite feys from becoming Bronze ones.
Lin Yuan increased his spirit qi’s release speed to smash the obstacle with full strength. Finally, half an hour later, the obstacle was pulverized to dust.
At that moment, Lin Yuan saw the Sharp Rock Bull, which was originally lying down, suddenly stand upright. Its body was emitting creaking and cracking sounds as its bones were shifting. In less than two minutes, the Sharp Rock Bull’s appearance changed drastically. 1
Had it not been for Lin Yuan witnessing it, he probably wouldn’t recognize the fey in front of him as the Sharp Rock Bull of just a few moments ago.
Lin Yuan activated True Data to check on the Sharp Rock Bull’s situation. No, it shouldn’t be called a Sharp Rock Bull anymore. It should be called Sharp Iron Horn Bull. 4
The Sharp Rock Bull, which was originally two meters in length, had already transformed into a Sharp Iron Horn Bull that was nearly three meters in length. The Sharp Iron Horn Bull’s greatest change wasn’t in its size, but the horns on its head. 2
The Sharp Rock Bull actually had a small horn on its nose, but it was only 2,5cm in size. Therefore, it had been useless.
However, the Sharp Iron Horn Bull’s nose horn was now one meter long. It no longer had its smooth curves, and it was razor-sharp with multiple angles. Each of the angles was sharp like a blade.
The two horns on the head, which were originally around 30cm in length, were now one meter long too.
The horns weren’t straight and were more like a bull’s horns, curved and meant for charging. They were heavy and filled with power, as though they were made to penetrate the enemy.
Lin Yuan was certain that this Sharp Rock Bull’s evolution into the Sharp Iron Horn Bull was in the ancestry line’s direction, enhancing its physical capability.
Lin Yuan had actually witnessed the process of an Elite fey evolving into a Bronze one. He had witnessed the metamorphosis of life.
While feeling the metamorphosis of life from where he stood, he felt his spirit getting enlightened. It was a kind of uplifting feeling that could only be felt when creating life.
It was the same as seeking the legendary chapter of the book that contained the meaning of life.
After the Sharp Rock Bull evolved, there were three exclusive skills to choose from due to its Epic quality.
[Scaled Skin]: The skin develops a layer of scaled armor-like skin that has a similar composition to the skin.
[Trudge]: Stamina can be reserved when sprinting.
[Pain Absorption]: When receiving damage, absorb a portion of the damage and turn it into vitality. 4
After reading through the three exclusive skills, Lin Yuan fell deep in thought.
Among the three skills, two of them were rather good. The Sharp Iron Horn Bull was a defense-type fey, so Trudge was obviously useless.
Scaled Skin was an exclusive skill that allowed the Sharp Iron Horn Bull’s current iron-like skin to develop a layer of thicker scaled armor. The scaled armor would also have the same properties of the Sharp Iron Horn Bull’s skin, enhancing its defensive capability.
At the same time, when the Sharp Iron Horn Bull was charging, if the scaled armor scraped on the target, its sharp edges would also injure the enemy.
The other exclusive skill, Pain Absorption, was rather interesting. When receiving damage, it allowed a portion of the damage to be absorbed and used to recover.
It was something that an iron fool would wish for, a skill that was even more extreme and complementing.
After a short conflict, Lin Yuan chose Pain Absorption.
Pain Absorption could be effectively used with the skill Sacrifice. The Scaled Skin might produce an additional layer of skin armor, but if the enemy could slice open the Sharp Iron Horn Bull’s original skin, then the scaled armor would naturally be sliced open too. Hence, after a quick comparison, Pain Absorption was definitely superior.
When Lin Yuan chose the exclusive skill, Pain Absorption, the Sharp Iron Horn Bull’s evolution was finally completed. The normal-grade and elite-grade learned skills would also undergo slight changes. 3
[Fey Name]: Sharp Iron Horn Bull
[Fey Species]: Horned species/Bull species
[Fey Grade]: Bronze (1/10)
[Fey Type]: Metal

[Sacrifice]: When the contractor is injured, automatically split the damage with the contractor.
Exclusive Skill:
[Pain Absorption]: When receiving damage, absorb a portion of the damage and turn it into vitality.
Lin Yuan couldn’t be more satisfied with the Sharp Iron Horn Bull before him. However, the more Lin Yuan observed the Sharp Iron Horn Bull, the more he felt it was like a power offense-type fey that had a defensive layer of skin.
Be it the abilities or the exclusive skill, they were all very good combinations for the Sharp Iron Horn Bull. For it to be Chu Ci’s first fey, it was simply as fitting as it could be.
But for a girl to contract a Sharp Iron Horn Bull, it was rather strange, just like the Beauty and the Beast. 3
However, this Sharp Iron Horn Bull was already the best defense-type fey that Lin Yuan could obtain with his current abilities.
After evolving the Sharp Iron Horn Bull, Lin Yuan felt that the increase of spiritual power in his body was the same as evolving 30 pots of Elite Usneas.
Lin Yuan concluded that evolving high-grade feys would allow his spiritual power to increase more. It was fortunate that the Sharp Rock Bull was an Elite X fey. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Lin Yuan to evolve it to bronze-grade in such a short period. 1
When looking at the dark blue and hazy sky, Lin Yuan immediately arranged for Bronze air transportation with his mobile phone. While waiting for the avian fey to arrive, Lin Yuan prepared dinner for Genius and Chimey. At the same time, he also fed the Sharp Iron Horn Bull with some Usnea vines. 2
He then stored the Bronze Sharp Iron Horn Bull in the bronze-grade spirit storage box. Soon enough, a Bronze avian fey arrived at the alley.
Lin Yuan grabbed onto the spirit storage box and bade farewell to Genius and Chimey, which had been chirping non-stop after waking up. He then boarded on the avian fey.
While riding the Bronze Black-Winged Windfalcon in the night, he flew toward Chu Ci’s school. 3
