Chapter 730: Hot Spring Slug

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Hot Spring Slug was appointed as a standard fey because of its special characteristic.

Even if one had a special affinity for a certain type of fey, as long as they were a healing-type spirit qi professional, they could form a contract with the Hot Spring Slug.

This was similar to the Vitality Sloth.

All of the feys the Indigo Azure Guard had sent were Hot Spring Slugs. This indicated that cleaning the dimensional rift was extremely perilous.

The Indigo Azure Guard were the same as the Spirit Guards. The only difference lay in that the Spirit Guards handled all the wrongdoings that took place in the Radiance Federation and appeared to be more impressive.

Meanwhile, the Indigo Azure Guard had been protecting the citizens of Indigo Azure City for generations.

At the crux of it all, both groups were equally noble.

Lin Yuan decided that he would do his best to nurture the Hot Spring Slugs.

Although he had this notion, Lin Yuan regretted summoning the 40 Hot Spring Snails.

The Hot Spring Slugs had a nice-sounding name, but they had a ghastly appearance. They looked like thrashing streaks of mucus that left sticky slime in their wake.

Lin Yuan immediately returned the 40 Hot Spring Slugs to the fey storage box.

When he walked to the spirit pool, he noticed the 11 Sunlight King Lotuses he had put in had already grown from the size of a fingernail to that of a watermelon.

Using True Data, Lin Yuan checked these Sunlight King Lotuses. They had evolved to Normal I/Normal.

Lin Yuan would place the Sunlight King Lotuses in the basement.

When Lin Yuan picked up the Sunlight King Lotus, he injected spirit qi into it with an extremely serious demeanor.

Nothing out of the ordinary occurred.

But when he evolved the Sunlight King Lotus to Bronze grade, Lin Yuan realized that it had returned a large amount of spiritual power to him.

Lin Yuan’s spiritual power increased significantly.

He never received a return of spiritual power when he was evolving feys’ qualities.

It was only when he evolved feys’ grades that he experienced such a return of spiritual power.

Lin Yuan had been busy setting up Sky City’s strategies and collecting a massive amount of resources. Thus, he did not have the time to rely on Silver Usneas to slowly increase his spiritual power.

Hence, his spiritual power had come to a standstill.

He did not expect to discover such a shocking change when he was evolving the Sunlight King Lotus.

Lin Yuan started to analyze the situation. *The Sunlight King Lotus returns seven times the amount of spiritual power that the Usnea returns.”

He quickly picked up another Sunlight King Lotus and evolved it.

When the Sunlight King Lotus evolved to Bronze grade, the same enormous return of spiritual power occurred.

This caused Lin Yuan to grin broadly, but he could not help but think why this situation was arising. He could not ask anyone else for the answer unless there was another him in the world that could absorb spirit qi from the surroundings and funnel it into feys to evolve the feys.

Lin Yuan had a significant number of Heaven and Earth Feys—the Cinnabar Osmanthus Haworthia, Twin Red Pagoda, Phoenix Perching Chinese Parasol Tree, Floating Island Whale, Sky Clouded Crane, Blood Brew Grapevine, and Sunlight King Lotus.

Besides the unhatched Floating Island Whale, Gray, and the 99 Sunlight King Lotuses, the other Heaven and Earth Feys had attained high grades.

Lin Yuan had not had the chance to evolve their grades anymore. He guessed that the Heaven and Earth Feys he evolved would return more spiritual power to him than other feys. Or maybe it was only the Sunlight King Lotus that could produce such an effect.

Lin Yuan felt that it was easy to test his hypothesis.

According to Gray’s shell, the feathers were moving slightly.

It looked like Gray was about to break out of its egg. At that time, Lin Yuan only needed to evolve it to test his idea.

He still had 97 Sunlight King Lotuses that he could evolve.

When he sensed the spirit qi in his body, Lin Yuan felt that he only needed to evolve another 80 Sunlight King Lotuses to promote to a B-rank spirit qi professional.

Lin Yuan had wanted this for such a long time.

When he became a B-rank spirit qi professional, he would be able to control Gold feys. If he could use Rolling Grade, he could possess Diamond Fantasy Breed feys. Thus, his own power would be rocketed even higher.

Additionally, when he promoted his rank, he could inject spirit qi into feys at an increased rate. He would no longer need tens of minutes to evolve feys to Bronze/Epic.

This would greatly increase his productivity and allow him to gather resources at a much quicker pace.

Frankly, trading with Condense Fairy Orchard, the Sea Bliss Clan, and the Indigo Azure Guard at the same time were causing Lin Yuan to burn out.

There was also the possibility of the Indigo Azure Guard increasing the scale of their trades.

At that time, it would be a struggle for Lin Yuan to finish just the Indigo Azure Guard’s orders.

However, Lin Yuan did not want to break off his collaborations with Condense Fairy Orchard and Sea Bliss Clan.

Although the Indigo Azure Guard was offering a much better deal, Lin Yuan could not guarantee that they would continue working with him for an extended period of time.

It was best for him to sow his seeds and play the field.

Lin Yuan could also make plans to squeeze the Sea Bliss Clan dry.

After much consideration, he decided to let go of other matters for now and focus on getting himself promoted to a B-rank spirit qi professional.

He used to think that his path to promotion from a C-rank to B-rank spirit qi professional was very long, and he could not estimate when the promotion would take place.

But now, he had discovered a shortcut that was wide open to him.

No matter what, Lin Yuan was going to seize the opportunity to take the shortcut. Hence, he continued to evolve the other Sunlight King Lotuses to Bronze grade.

He returned all the evolved Sunlight King Lotuses to the amber-button-shaped fey storage box when he was done.
