Chapter 1046: Evolution

“Found it!”

Fang Yuan finally found a small black bag after careful searching of the insides of the corpse.

This bag was like a sachet, but it was hidden by Great Fey Pengze inside his own body and obviously something important.

He tried to inject a bit of his power into it and immediately broke into a smile. “It really is a storage bag, but it has a very small space. It’s not even three meters in length, width, and height. Also, it can’t store anything alive!”

Even so, he had never heard of anyone in the Beichen tribe having a storage magic artifact.

The one Xu Lie had was destroyed.

“Hmm. The storage space might be small, but these are the treasures that Great Fey Pengze collected throughout the years…”

Fang Yuan swept around with his spiritual will and found some spiritual flowers, fruits, rare minerals, and a few magic artifacts.

Not long after, a golden page appeared in his hand. “It truly is a page from the Pantheon Catalog. The method of refinement and usage of the Ten Thousand Beast Banner are on it…”

To be honest, although Great Fey Pengze had many treasures, they were nothing to Fang Yuan, who had inherited an immortal abode.

However, his face finally broke into a surprised grin. “This is… a Myriad Poison Snake Flower?”

A bowl-sized, colorful exotic flower appeared in his hand.

“Good stuff!” Gold Ingot also exclaimed in admiration. “You can only use up to the fourth star of the Nine Star Pearl with your current body strength… Your body wouldn’t be able to take it even if you comprehended the fifth star! Unless you manage to cultivate the Hundred Physical Forging Technique to the next realm, which requires the aid of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. The Myriad Poison Snake Flower is one of them! You truly do have some luck!”

“There should still be some treasures in Great Fey Pengze’s cave abode for me to grab. But I’m only at the Materialization realm, so it’s disadvantageous for me to go into the water to fight. And there could be more variables the longer I stay here. Let’s go!”

Fang Yuan scanned the battlefield before disappearing like the wind.

In a mountain cave.

Fang Yuan threw the jade ring causally. It flashed and turned into a gray stone.

A white light immediately engulfed his body and directly brought him into the immortal abode.

According to Gold Ingot, even if an Immortal were to arrive, they would not be able to discover the secret of this stone unless they searched inch by inch. It was very safe.

“However… this world is indeed quite high level…” Fang Yuan sighed faintly as he walked and glanced around at the brilliant surroundings.

There had never been something like a portable cave abode in all the worlds he had gone to, not even the Mental Demon Realm. The storage bag was handy as well. However, it should be more common since both Great Fey Pengze and Xu Lie each had one.

“Is comprehending the Nomological Laws of Space easier in high-level worlds?”

His eyes shone.

The Dao of Space was a first-class Dao path that even the greatest Demon Gods had difficulties reaching.

“Perhaps… this is a chance for me!”

While pondering, he went to a side hall.

“Thief!”

Beichen Feng, Beichen Kuang, Beichen Hong, and the surviving elders were tied to golden pillars. Beichen Kuang shouted angrily when he saw Fang Yuan.

However, the grand elder had a look of awe on his face. “This is… a legendary immortal abode?”

“That’s right, but there’s no reward!”

Fang Yuan went to the rude Beichen Kuang.

“What do you want to do?” Fear surfaced on Beichen Kuang’s face, but he was still stubborn. “We are from the Beichen tribe!”

Gold Ingot had restrained them once they were in the immortal abode. Now, they were not much different from lambs waiting to be slaughtered from Fang Yuan’s perspective.

“Survival of the fittest is the law of nature… You used me as bait before, but now I’m a knife while you are meat!”

Fang Yuan smiled, and a golden page appeared in his hand. It was the Pantheon Enhancement Technique he had obtained from Xu Lie!

This mystic technique might be difficult, but he had still successfully cultivated it. His previous cultivation might have been lost, but his Demon God vision and mental state were still there, giving him an absolute advantage in comprehending and cultivating.

“Putting aside the difficulty of mastering the Pantheon Enhancement Technique, there are a few conditions to satisfy if I want to use it. First, both the wielder and the subject must have totems. Moreover, everything must center around the wielder’s totem! There are two methods. The first is improvement, and the second is evolution!”

The so-called improvement was to absorb totems that were water element or had the power of illusions such as the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox, black water snake, etc. to increase the intrinsic quality of the totem.

In the end, the clam totem would still be the clam totem, but its various abilities would definitely increase rapidly. It might even advance in grade. This was what Xu Lie wanted to do to Dongmu Cai previously—plunder her wood element to improve his Phoenix flame.

The second type was evolution. This was quite dangerous because it was directly devouring other totems and thoroughly digesting them to obtain their advantage, causing the clam totem to transform. This transformation might be good, but it could also turn for the worse.

The only advantage was that if it turned for the better, there would be a large increase in the totem’s grade. It might even become a first-grade totem!

“Although the clam totem is suitable for me, its grade is too low. I might not be able to reach third grade if I use the first method. The second method gives me the highest possibility of rising to first grade. If I want to progress quickly, I have to use the second method.”

Those with third-grade totems were considered geniuses among the barbarians, but Fang Yuan’s sights had never been restricted to the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

He would inevitably walk out of the mountains and compete with the geniuses of all races on the endless continent. A third-grade totem was not enough, and he had to lay an exceptional foundation with a first-grade totem!

“If not, how am I going to fight the Abominable Lord in the future?”

Fang Yuan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged in front of his captives.

“The clam totem has to evolve…”

He sat there like that for several days, comprehending his totem and pursuing that flickering aura.

“Did this kid… go mad?”

While Gold Ingot might have prevented the injuries of Beichen Kuang and the others from deteriorating, he was not kind-hearted enough to continue treating them. They felt hopeless as they watched Fang Yuan sitting there, writing and drawing, lost in his own world.

“Yes, this is it. Haha…” Fang Yuan suddenly stood up and threw back his head in laughter. “As expected… My previous idea was the most perfect. It is a dragon!”

Dragon! The divine beast of Huaxia.

In the memory of his previous life, there was a morphological record of ‘horns like a deer, head like a camel, eyes like a rabbit, neck like a snake, belly like a clam, scales like a fish, claws like a hawk, paws like a tiger, and ears like a cow’.

The belly like a clam was referring to the clam totem!

As long as he had this fulcrum, he could use it as a foundation to start the evolution process!

“I had this hunch for the clam totem before. This direction can’t be wrong! The Yanhuang ancestors, a former tribe, also depended on plundering the totems of other tribes to be able to create the Divine Dragon. I never thought I would do this in another world!”

After deciding on his plan, Fang Yuan called Gold Ingot. “Let’s start!”

“All right!” Gold Ingot activated a Dharmic formulation, and golden rays suddenly emitted from the pillars bounding the captives.

Roar Roar!

Roaring totems emerged one-by-one.

“Multi-eyed qiongming? Mountain tiger? Seven-colored horn deer? And green python?” Fang Yuan nodded. “Not bad. Other than the multi-eyed qiongming, the rest are useful to me!”

He went to Beichen Feng. He formed a hand seal, and strange light spots appeared on his fingers.

“Ah… What are you doing?” Beichen Feng’s scalp was tingling.

“Pantheon Enhancement Technique!”

Fang Yuan concentrated. Thin threads flew out from his fingers and buried themselves deep into Beichen Feng’s body. Beichen Feng’s eyes went dull, and he could say nothing else.

“The Dao of Heaven takes from what has abundance and supplies what is wanting. The Dao of Man takes from what is wanting in order to supply what has abundance.

“Go, clam totem!”

The clam totem appeared behind Fang Yuan. A trace of black fog wrapped around the seven-colored horn deer like a tentacle.

The seven-colored horn deer, like its owner, was lifeless and did not struggle at all.

The black fog increased, enveloping the seven-colored horn deer and integrating it into the clam totem.

Rumble.

The fog spread and formed a huge cocoon, encasing the clam totem within.

Beichen Feng’s head crooked to one side, utterly dead.

“He actually… devoured the totem?” The grand elder was shocked. “Demon Dao… Definitely the Demon Dao. Not good. Did he capture me to…”

Unfortunately, even suicide was now a luxury.

Fang Yuan did not stop and devoured Beichen Kuang’s mountain tiger and the grand elder’s green python.

The clam’s black cocoon doubled in size after swallowing three totems. Its surface was uneven, wriggling slowly, as though it was pregnant with a whole new life.

“Demon!”

“I won’t let you go even if I die!”

Beichen Hong smiled sadly as she watched on.

“I have no interest in your totem!”

Fang Yuan’s hand flickered, and the Ten Thousand Beast Banner appeared.

The golden page he had obtained from Great Fey Pengze contained the control method. Moreover, Fang Yuan had easily refined it since its owner was dead, and it was now his.

The light went out of Beichen Hong’s face with a small shake as her multi-eyed qiongming totem was devoured.

“Totem evolution has to be done right in one go. You’ve only devoured three. Do you have confidence? Or are you going to go out and abduct genius disciples? That is Demon Dao conduct,” Gold Ingot asked with suspicion.

In its opinion, Beichen Hong and the rest had it coming since they plotted against Fang Yuan first. However, Fang Yuan would fall into the Demon Dao if he were to initiate the plundering and hurt innocents.

“Totem evolution is akin to a ten-month pregnancy. The worst thing to do would be to fight. I won’t do something so stupid.”

Fang Yuan raised the Ten Thousand Beast Banner. “Aren’t there many totem spirit essences here?”

Great Fey Pengze had accumulated spirit essences in the Ten Thousand Beast Banner for many years. It would be a piece of cake to find suitable spirit essences for the clam’s evolution!
