The plant-type species have many varieties.
Even Lin You dare not claim to have seen them all.
For example, this Venus Flytrap, he had never mutated it before.
This should be, like the Yama’s Fire Lotus, a branch that requires specific skills to mutate.
And the skill is very peculiar.
It surprisingly has a natural restraint effect on the insect type.
It’s the first ti he’s seen this kind of skill, and it’s an excellent skill prototype.
If he encounters a strong enemy from the insect type in the future, it can definitely play a big role.
As for the Acid Rain that follows, its effect is similar to the Corrosive Rain copied by the Cannibal Flower before.
However, that batch of Cannibal Flowers had mostly perished, so this skill can be used to fill the gap.
Thinking of this, Lin You couldn’t help but have a headache.
After creating a new Four-leaf Clover Cannibal Flower, he’ll have to painstakingly seek out the Undying Domain skill to devour and replicate it.
But in this Demon Plane, where are there so many Undead Mages for him to devour?
It seems he can only take it one step at a ti.
There are still many things to do next.
Helplessly shaking his head, he continued to mutate the Venus Flytrap in front of him.
Now that the Venus Flytrap has been recorded in the Tower of Species, he can study it later when he has ti.
What he wants now is the Royal Family, so it’s not too regrettable.
Just like that.
With a series of prompts, the glow of mutation lit up again beneath the World Tree.
The plant forms in front of him were constantly changing.
Most of them were still dominated by the Turtle-Lion Species.
Occasionally, other branches with higher affinity ordinary species appeared.
Lin You silently prayed in his heart not to mutate into a Royal Turtle, otherwise, his Instant Shadow Skill would be wasted.
After all, the Thorn Shield Profound Turtle, being an equipnt species, does not need this skill.
It would be better suited for the little Mushroom.
As he was pondering this.
A burst of golden light suddenly shone.
[Mutation success, hidden effect triggered, awakening Royal Bloodline.]
It’s happening!
Lin You’s spirit was invigorated.
He quickly looked towards the center of the golden light, anxiously anticipating which branch the speed-type species would be.
Even several royal family mbers nearby were attracted over, curiously observing the golden light cluster.
Soon enough.
The light cluster dissipated.
A slim figure, taller than a person and holding a spiked dagger, different from other Cactus Soldier Species, gradually ca into view.
It was a Royal Species of the Cactus branch!
[Na: Cactus Assassin (Royal Family)]
[Race: Plant]
[Level: Tier Four (0/100)]
[Power: 95]
[Constitution: 85]
[Agility: 100]
[Spirit: 90]
[Skills: Instant Shadow, Mirage (creates two illusions of the real body with identical attributes and skills alongside, to aid in combat, lasting 30 seconds.) Shadow Kill (transforms into a shadow, instantly teleporting behind a designated enemy to inflict double damage.)]
[Introduction: A king among cacti, mastering powerful instant kill techniques in harsh deserts, treading in illusions.]
An assassin-type species!
It was really mutated by him!
Looking at the attribute panel before him and the slender cactus in front of him, Lin You couldn’t contain his excitent.
He only felt a chilling killing intent seeping into his heart, making him shiver involuntarily.
It felt as if the entire atmosphere had frozen.
He was sure that if this Cactus Assassin had intelligence, it would undoubtedly be a cold-blooded killer.
And its two skills were even more undeniable, with cloning and instant teleport assassination, each more formidable than the last.
It was born for assassination.
Pairing perfectly with the Instant Shadow Skill!
"From now on, you shall be called... Shadowless."
Following convention, Lin You first gave the new royal family mber a na.
He then took out the two high-tier experience Treasure Pearls that he originally planned to exchange for sothing, and used them on it.
Swish!
A radiant light of leveling up appeared.
experience points imdiately raised Shadowless to Tier Eight, with over a hundred extra experience points.
anwhile, a Tier Six Essence and ten Tier Seven Essences were consud.
But this was nothing to Lin You now.
Lately, he had gained quite a bit of Tier Seven Essence from defeating Lord Demons.
Watching as Shadowless completed its upgrade.
He promptly led Shadowless to the Hero Pool for transformation.
[Tier Seven species transformation requires consuming 70,000 Magic Energy. Proceed with transformation?]
"Yes!"
A response full of anticipation echoed, instantly illuminating the entire Hero Transformation Pool, enveloping him and Shadowless within.
Once the light faded and the transformation success ssage sounded.
Shadowless’s attributes underwent a monuntal change.
[Na: Cactus Slayer·Shadowless (Royal Family)]
[Race: Plant (Hero)]
[Level: Tier Eight (150/5000)]
[Power: 2200 ( 2200)]
[Constitution: 2000 ( 2000)]
[Agility: 2500 ( 2500)]
[Spirit: 2150 ( 2150)]
[Skills: Instant Shadow, Mirage, Shadow Kill, Void (turn body into void, hiding within illusions, deactivating upon attack or being attacked, lasting 30 seconds.)]
[Slaughter Machine: When slaying an enemy, speed increases by 30% for 5 seconds]
[Introduction: A king among cacti, mastering powerful instant kill techniques in harsh deserts, treading in illusions.]
Incredibly powerful!
Looking at the new skills and exclusive hero talent Shadowless had comprehended, Lin You couldn’t help but marvel in his heart.
The appearance of these two skills almost pushed Shadowless’s assassination abilities to the extre.
Especially the exclusive talent.
Killing enemies boosts speed, perfectly compensating for the inherent lower constitution of assassin-type species.
As long as you’re fast enough, who needs defense?
So after so thought.
Lin You allowed the Symbiotic Moss to directly replicate Shadowless’s attributes, symbiotically attaching to it, maximizing the speed advantage.
Why not replicate the attributes of other royal families?
Because the fastest in the other royal families is Lingxi, with 2400 points.
But Lingxi is a magic-type species with low power, not quite compatible with Shadowless.
And while Cyan Gang has the highest power, its speed is not particularly outstanding, so this was the best option for now.
Anyway, the royal family gets more kills, leveling up much faster than ordinary species.
It shouldn’t take long to reach full experience and attributes.
"Phew—"
"Finally done."
Closing the interface, after letting Shadowless get acquainted with the other royal families, Lin You finally exhaled a sigh of relief.
He glanced at the sky, which was gradually darkening.
Thinking back, it had been a long ti since he had concentrated so intensely, spending most of the day crafting species.
Even with his Tier Eight body, he felt a bit exhausted.
But the results were very rewarding.
Not only did he create a strengthened troop with enhanced defense and survival abilities, but he also successfully mutated the eighth royal family, compensating for the plant type’s weakness in speed.
He could create desired species through various skill combinations.
That must be the terrifying aspect of mutated abilities.
Of course.
Lin You also considered not mutating, focusing on a rare species elite path.
After all, the average attributes of rare species are higher than those of ordinary species.
But the problem is.
Currently, the only rare species he can deploy are the Plant Dragon and Calamity Sword Bamboo.
One is agility-based, and the other is a long-range equipnt type, clearly not suitable for mass recruitnt as the main force.
Besides, ordinary species with a 30% increase in constitution don’t have much weaker attributes, even single attributes comparable to royal families, with full survival capabilities.
Only when alive, can there be output.
This is an eternal truth.
As for the lack of attack, it can be compensated with Symbiotic Moss.
Symbiotic Moss can replicate the attributes of other species.
Magic species replicate Lingxi’s max-level spirit, close combat species replicate Cyan Gang’s max-level power, and can also carry max-level constitution, perfectly fitting.
Now all that’s left is to raise their experience.
"Lord, there’s sothing to report."
At this mont, a shout suddenly ca from outside the territory, interrupting Lin You’s thoughts.
"Wei Gang?"
Lin You looked outside, puzzled.
With a thought, Cyan Gang’s Vine Forest spread apart, clearing a path.
Soon enough, Wei Gang, clad in armor, hurriedly arrived before him.
"Is there sothing you need?"
"Lord, there’s a matter that requires your decision." Wei Gang bowed and saluted Lin You.
"This afternoon, a Tier Nine Cultivator ca to the city, expressing his desire to join our Yellow Sand City, but he laid down a condition."
"Oh? What condition? Let’s hear it." Lin You’s interest was piqued.
A Tier Nine Cultivator would undoubtedly count as the top combat power for Yellow Sand City.
The more Tier Nine cultivators in the territory, the more renowned it becos, naturally attracting more people.
After all, a territory with Tier Nine guardians is at least guaranteed to be safe.
This greatly benefits population growth.
"That’s it. The person said that if soone in our territory can defeat him, he would join." Wei Gang respectfully said.
"Defeat him? What about Elder Yue? Did he go?" Lin You asked, puzzled.
"Elder Yue went, but in the end, it was only a draw."
"A draw?"
Lin You’s eyes shifted, sowhat surprised.
He knew Yue Daonan’s strength.
Among Tier Nine cultivators, he was at least above average, especially after comprehending the power of rules here for so long.
Even he only managed a draw, indicating that the Tier Nine cultivator’s strength was extraordinary.
Thinking of this, he imdiately said, "Alright, take to see."
"As you command!"
With that, Wei Gang turned around, leading Lin You.
Throughout the process, he never noticed the shadowy figure standing in the darkness beside Lin You, eyeing him intently.
"Let’s go."
Lin You softly spoke to Shadowless beside him and then followed Wei Gang out of the territory, heading towards Yellow Sand City.
Soon.
With the citizens watching on the street, they arrived inside the training ground.
Amidst the commotion, loud cheers and sounds of battle accompanied their arrival.
"Go Elder Yue! Knock down that arrogant jerk!"
"Watch out! He’s coming from that side!"
"He’s coming, Elder Yue’s strongest strike!"
"So fast!"
"Haha, that guy is finished!"
All around the training ground, a large number of guards and cultivators gathered.
Faces flushed with excitent, all cheering for Yue Daonan, who was fighting fiercely at the center of the field.
"Boom!"
With a loud explosion, the entire training ground shook as massive dust clouds rose.
Two figures simultaneously retreated swiftly from the dust, stopping firmly at the edge of the field.
Lin You looked toward the figure battling Yue Daonan.
A man in his thirties, with a cold deanor, his hands trembling slightly as he held a dagger, clearly having just experienced an intense battle.
On the other side, Yue Daonan was not faring any better.
His sword humd, sweat dripped from its tip, and he panted heavily like an ox.
As Wei Gang had said, they were evenly matched.
Just as the two were about to engage again, people around the edge of the field noticed Lin You, startled, they quickly stood and saluted.
"Greetings, Lord!"
