Fey Evolution Merchant

Blackie had already awakened its dragon-species bloodline and had evolved into the Spirit-Drawing Ichthyosaur.

The evolution to Fantasy Breed would grant a one-time qualitative leap, where the innate dragon-species bloodline would be completely unleashed.

It allowed Blackie to transform into a genuine flood dragon-species fey.

Although Blackie’s bloodline would also improve tremendously, it did not need to endure much pain because it already had a solid foundation. It had already experienced agony in several stages when it evolved from Bronze grade and had only just awakened its dragon-species bloodline.

Thus, Blackie was all but settled and did not need much concern from Lin Yuan.

However, this was not the case for Genius.

Genius’ evolution from an ordinary housekeeping beast to what it was now had not brought any obvious changes.

This opportunity to evolve to Fantasy Breed was a good chance for Genius to utterly transform itself.

An ordinary housekeeping beast like Genius usually did not transform. It would be the equivalent of leaping across a vast chasm.

Once it crossed over, it would start a completely new chapter.

If it failed to cross, only death would await Genius.

This thought made Lin Yuan hesitate about whether he should allow Genius to comprehend this Willpower Rune to evolve to Fantasy Breed. He would prefer Genius to be safe rather than strong.

At that moment, Lin Yuan heard Genius’ child-like voice say to Chimey, “Chimey, I’ll become strong enough to protect you. I’m not afraid of pain.”

Genius then looked at Lin Yuan and said, “Yuan, I can finally evolve and help you in even more ways.”

Genius’s words warmed Lin Yuan’s heart.

As Genius’ contractor, Lin Yuan knew that it had a peaceful nature that avoided conflict.

It was never greedy for power or evolution.

The Hundred Questions Beast was a housekeeping beast. Thus, for Genius to be as smart as it was even before it became a fey was already exceptional.

Now, Genius had become a Bronze/Legend fey. Each time it evolved, it became even smarter.

Hence, Genius was already much smarter than most people, so Lin Yuan had been instructing it to gain knowledge about Class 3 Scholar, Class 3 Spiritual Ingredient Analyst, and Class 3 Fey Observer.

Genius had gained so much knowledge that it was more qualified than Lin Yuan to be a Class 3 Creation Master. Lin Yuan’s vast knowledge came from what Genius had learned, after all.

He even knew the risks that Genius’ evolution entailed.

As Lin Yuan’s knowledge bank, Genius had to be aware as well.

In spite of the risks, Genius still wanted to evolve and become stronger. Its motivation and bravery stemmed from its yearning to be of more use to Lin Yuan.

The evolution of feys was a gift from heaven but also a test that they had to stake their lives on. The World Cleansing undergone by Myth Breed feys could be halted externally. However, not even the most skilled Creation Master could stop an innate transformation.

Lin Yuan squatted down and said solemnly to Genius, “Genius, are you certain that you want to evolve now?”

When Chimey heard what Lin Yuan said, it cocked its head in confusion, and the light blue feathers on its head bobbed.

Chimey could not make sense of it. Although the evolution would be painful, being able to evolve to Fantasy Breed was a good thing. But why did it feel like Lin Yuan was slightly against Genius’ evolution?

During Chimey transformation after evolving to Fantasy III, its body had been crushed. This had wrecked Chimey’s mind, and it only regained its senses right before the evolution was completed. Thus, Chimey did not know what had happened to it during its evolution.

Naturally, Genius had not told Chimey about the agony it had gone through.

Neither Lin Yuan nor Genius wanted to think about the pain that Chimey had gone through during its evolution.

Genius nodded and said, “Yuan, I want to evolve. I’ll be fine, so don’t worry about me.”

Lin Yuan did not expect that Genius would be considerate of his feelings at such a time and even comfort him.

He stood up and took a deep breath.

Although Genius’ evolution and transformation was its own business and external forces could not stop it, it could still receive help.

Although it had not been long since Lin Yuan had escaped certain doom in the dimensional rift, Blackie’s transformation had resulted in Lin Yuan’s Spirit Qi Imprint accumulating a sizable amount of spirit qi.

Moreover, the Jasmine Lily had already evolved to Gold I/Fantasy III.

In two weeks, Lin Yuan’s Vitality Imprint would have accumulated even more energy than before.

The Jasmine Lily could use the Bud of Mountain Jade’s Heal and did not have the same comfort that came from being controlled. When combined with Morbius’ Pure Land of Bliss, Lin Yuan felt that it was feasible.

“Prepare yourself, Genius. I’ll be evolving Blackie to Fantasy Breed first.”

Genius immediately bounded to the workbench and started to munch on juicy Cane Luffa. It wanted to fill its stomach to conserve the energy needed for its transformation.

Since Chimey was a Sound Bird, it had a good grasp of the emotions in a piece of music and was sensitive to the feelings of sound.

It sensed the heaviness in Lin Yuan’s tone.

The ever-cheerful Chimey was perturbed, and it tapped its feet on top of Genius’ head. It did not know how to comfort Genius, so it followed its instincts and started to sing a joyous song to cheer Genius up.

However, Chimey was clearly worried about Genius, and Lin Yuan could sense its uneasiness from its song.

Lin Yuan walked to the spirit pool and saw that Blackie was blowing bubbles in the water.

After Blackie’s flood dragon species bloodline had been unlocked, it had grown to a meter long. Its black tail had grown an exoskeleton that supported it, allowing Blackie to move its tail as it swam in the spirit pool.

In the past, its tail would be at the mercy of the currents and swish limply.

Lin Yuan did not know if it was his misconception, but it seemed as though the two horns on Blackie’s head had grown significantly.

Blackie saw Lin Yuan approach the spirit pool and jumped out of the water to greet him.

However, Blackie forgot that it was no longer a small fish that could fit in the palm of a hand. It was now a big meter-long fish.

Lin Yuan stood next to the spirit pool and was drenched in water that splashed out due to Blackie’s jump.

Lin Yuan looked at Blackie awkwardly and could not help but roll his eyes.

This silly child!
