Fey Evolution Merchant Novel - Chapter 2437
2437 Astonishing Talent!
Yun Xi always saw Lin Yuan as cold and brooding, as his replies always only contained a few words.
Yet, his reply came as a long passage when it came to serious matters.
He was such a responsible and gentle person!
However, Yun Xi had only heard of the Needle-Haired Spider evolving into the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider but never the Demon-Faced Spike Spider. Just what kind of a fey was the Demon-Faced Spike Spider?
Yun Xi trusted Lin Yuan deeply and knew he would not exploit her.
With his status, his time was extremely precious, and a trivial character like her was not worth him wasting his time.
[Stream in the Cloud]: Lin Yuan, I have never heard of the Demon-Faced Spike Spider. How is it different from the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider?
When Lin Yuan saw the message from Yun Xi, he realized that he had completely lost all anonymity after revealing that his Black and Deep Mountain Elder Lin accounts belonged to the same person. Almost everyone who contacted him on Star Web addressed him as Lin Yuan directly.
It was to be expected that Yun Xi did not know the Demon-Faced Spike Spider. It was a special spider-species fey that the Moon Empress had nurtured.
It looked completely different from the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider.
The Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider’s body was gray and black and was covered with hard bristles. It attacked using its swiftness. Once the target made contact with its bristles, it would pierce its bristles into the target.
The Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider was not feared for the strength of its venom.
A spirit qi professional could not be saved once an extremely venomous fey bit them. For example, if a person breathed in the pollen from the Sky Poison Powder Butterfly’s wings, even constant nourishment from a Class 5 Creation Master would only be able to provide that person with a small hope of survival.
The Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider’s bristles were very light. As long as there was wind, it could float in the air for a long time.
Thus, the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider regarded its surroundings as a territory. The targets within the territory were all possible targets for the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider’s attacks.
Nonetheless, there were limitations to such an ability.
Wind was very capable of limiting the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider’s attacks. Chaotic bursts of wind would rapidly blow the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider’s bristles away. There were many feys that could be encountered on both the battleground and in the wild that had the ability to create strong gales.
The Demon-Faced Spike Spider’s back resembled the face of a human. However, the Moon Empress called it the Demon-Faced Spike Spider instead of the Human-Faced Spider because the color of its back was too alluring and strange.
When the two were of the same grade, the Demon-Faced Spike Spider was smaller than the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider.
The Demon-Faced Spike Spider also used its bristles to attack targets.
But the difference was that the Demon-Faced Spike Spider was able to weave webs. The webs it weaved were the same strange color as its back and had ghastly faces.
The ghastly faces on the web contained a powerful psychotoxin that would enter a body through the eyes. It would cause the target to become nauseated and dizzy. After some time passed, if the target’s spiritual energy was weak to begin with, the nausea and dizziness would morph into headache and unconsciousness. This would make the target extremely easy to control.
Furthermore, the Demon-Faced Spike Spider’s bristles could also stick to the web in the event of strong winds. If there was no wind, the bristles could spread freely. Thus, wind was no longer a limiting factor.
The Demon-Faced Spike Spider’s attacking ability was not only more stable than that of the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider but also had controlling abilities. Thus, the Demon-Faced Spike Spider won out over the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider in all regards.
Since Lin Yuan was going to recommend a fey to Yun Xi, he would definitely inform her of the differences between the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider and Demon-Faced Spike Spider.
Now that she had asked before he told, he replied with all the information he had.
Yun Xi’s eyes became increasingly brighter as she read Lin Yuan’s long response.
Lin Yuan’s response contained at least 2,000 words and clearly described the differences between the Ghost Shadow Bristled Spider and Demon-Faced Spike Spider, as well as the advantages of the Demon-Faced Spike Spider. He even told her about how she should nurture the Demon-Faced Spike Spider.
The two feys that Yun Xi had contracted were very outstanding. She had also invested a large amount of resources into nurturing them.
Yun Xi had very high expectations when it came to her choice of feys. She had less than nothing to complain about Lin Yuan’s recommendation. Or rather, she had no right to complain.
If she had not told Lin Yuan that she wanted to buy feys from him and he happened to agree, her family would never be able to obtain a fey as outstanding as the Demon-Faced Spike Spider.
As Yun Xi’s father’s power grew, the family business prospered, and they established ties with a top family faction. Thus, Yun Xi’s family was now a stable veteran faction.
Yun Xi was certain that the Cage of Brahma Insects would never provide her with a fey better than the Demon-Faced Spike Spider, even if her father went to beg them.
[Stream in the Cloud]: Thank you so much, Lin Yuan! I will be 16 years old in a few years. At that time, I will also try out for the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection! I am now a D-rank spirit qi professional. After rolling grades, I will be able to contract Gold feys. I have also comprehended a Willpower Rune. I will likely be able to become a C-rank spirit qi professional before I reach 16 years old. I might just be able to secure a place in the Radiance Hundred Sequence.
Yun Xi saw Lin Yuan as her idol and really wanted to join his camp.
However, she believed that Lin Yuan would have already become a Radiance Envoy by the time she reached 16 years old two years later.
Yun Xi was not the only one who believed that Lin Yuan would become a Radiance Envoy. There were many people who already saw him as an eventual Radiance Envoy.
Previously, all Lin Yuan knew about Yun Xi was that she was young. Thus, he always communicated with her as though she was a young child.
But it turned out that she was extremely talented!
With the talent to become a C-rank spirit qi professional before the age of 16, she was a rare talent that rivaled Chu Ci.
Moreover, she had already comprehended a Willpower Rune. Once she reached C-rank, she would be able to obtain a Platinum/Fantasy fey.
This power was stunningly shocking.
It was true that she stood a good chance of trying out for a place amongst the Radiance Hundred Sequence once she contracted a Platinum/Fantasy fey.
However, the chances of her gaining a place were very small.
Now, the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection not only took power into consideration but many other factors as well, unlike in the past when just gaining victory on the battleground was enough.
The wild and natural environment was filled with droves of ferocious beasts. Lin Yuan believed that luck was just as
