Holding the Spirit Ascension Fruit, Lu Yu could feel the vast, Azure-Gold Primordial Spiritual Energy contained within. Because it was born from a Blessing, it was relatively peaceful.
However, before an ordinary person could consu it, they would need to stabilize their spirituality to avoid the illusion of a swollen ego after the surge of spiritual energy. It was best to use a ritual or a heart-calming type of pet beast for assistance.
As for Lu Yu…
Crunch!
He swallowed it in one bite. It was crisp and sweet like a pear, yet it also felt like swallowing clouds and mist.
The imnse Azure-Gold Primordial Spiritual Energy instantly rushed to his entire body.
"Well, as expected, I don't feel a thing anymore.
I guess you could say I've been through a hundred battles…"
Lu Yu sighed. With all the taboo images he had seen and his two Monarch-rank cubs constantly absorbing and converting spiritual power, the limits of his body's spiritual capacity had long since been expanded.
He no longer felt anything.
Using the slight suppression from the Key of Truth's Rank, he controlled all the spiritual energy and guided it into his Brain Domain, the node where his Beast Taming Space was located.
Boom!
As if he were opening his Beast Taming Space for the first ti, Lu Yu easily broke through the Shackles. The power of the Primordial Spirit Ascension Fruit began to seep into his entire Beast Taming Space.
The first objective was to compress the Mithril-colored Silver Spirituality, transforming it from its original gaseous state into liquid Spiritual Water Droplets.
After the entire Beast Taming Space of Mithril Spirituality was transford, only a small pond of Spiritual Water Droplets was produced.
Although the quantity seed to have decreased, the essence of its power had undergone an earth-shattering change.
Because Lu Yu had consud the Primordial Spirit Ascension Fruit, his spiritual power took on an Azure-Gold hue.
Normally, it should have been 1.5 tis stronger than an ordinary Gold Rank of the sa level.
But according to Lu Yu's estimation, the spiritual power in his body was even stronger, reaching twice that of the sa level.
A single drop was enough to unleash the power that previously required half of his Beast Taming Space's spiritual power.
At the sa ti, his physical fitness had also improved significantly, and his ntal power had been strengthened by half. Although it wasn't enough to shed the title of "Skinny Weakling," his endurance had greatly increased.
In a duel, he could crush his forr self.
He no longer needed Interdiate Spirit Magic Potions…
Bring on the advanced ones!
In addition, Lu Yu could feel that the life force in his body was much more vigorous.
As long as he wasn't injured or in a weakened state, he was basically immune to minor illnesses, and small wounds would heal quickly.
As long as he was still breathing, his chances of survival were dozens of tis higher than an ordinary person's.
"No wonder the Gold Rank is considered excellent talent by the Alliance. At this stage, one can indeed be called a Little Superman.
Moreover, most pet beasts have fully entered their adult stage by this point, their extraordinary organs are fully developed, and their combat power is stable…"
Lu Yu was pleasantly surprised, and he gained a deeper understanding of this world's power system.
Using pet beasts as a filter to absorb spiritual power, allowing them to grow alongside him and tamorphose their life levels.
In this process, the pet beast was not an external object but a part of oneself, an absolutely trusted partner with whom one shared life and death.
This was the true essence of a Beast Tar.
'No wonder when Beast Tars beco Imagination Bodies, they also fuse with their own pet beasts. They are essentially extensions of their own spirituality, and in the end, it's still a path where Great Power Belongs to the Self.
'
As Lu Yu pondered, his Beast Taming Space also began to change.
Rumble!
The Beast Taming Space expanded once more, doubling in size before stopping, successfully transforming into a Level 3 Beast Taming Space.
It had beco extrely spacious, equivalent to five or six football fields joined together, enough to house many Slave Beasts. The speed at which it could absorb power from the first section of the Mother River—the Prival Spirit Sea—had also increased significantly.
A Level 3 Beast Taming Space provided a five-fold growth speed bonus for pet beasts. Even so pet beasts with excessively long growth cycles could be attempted to be raised.
Even if a beast took a hundred years to mature, with the boost from the Beast Taming Space, it would only take twenty years to reach its adult stage.
In addition, the call from the Supre Mother River was getting closer, and the gateway to enter the Prival Spirit Sea had beco larger and more accommodating.
The Mother River wouldn't have to worry about not being able to squeeze in!
"As for whether the illumination range of the Spirit Lamp has gotten bigger, I'll have to go in to find out. And before that, there are things to do…"
Lu Yu exited his consciousness space and took out the six Earth Mother Lotus Seeds he had accumulated over this period.
"Unfortunately, as my strength increases, the effect of the Earth Mother Lotus will beco weaker and weaker…"
Lu Yu felt a little regretful. Unfortunately, the Eye of Truth still couldn't see the evolution path for the Earth Mother Lotus.
It seed the secret involved was far greater than he had imagined.
The other evolution thods were monopolized by the Earth Mother Cult.
It was not beneficial to make enemies rashly. It seed he could only look into it after his strength had increased.
Thinking of this, he divided the Earth Mother Lotus Seeds into two portions and handed them to Little Mouse and Little Spider respectively. Since they had already reached the verge of promotion, they only needed it as a catalyst.
"Ying!"
Little Spider, who had just been struck down by the Queen Bee, now craved power. It swallowed the three Earth Mother Lotus Seeds in one gulp.
Pure spiritual energy surged in, and it broke through easily, increasing the spirituality in its body.
The so-called Commander Rank shackles simply did not exist for it.
After advancing to Commander Rank, although Little Spider had not yet entered its adult stage, its body had grown quite a bit. From the size of a fist at birth, it was now as tall as a basketball.
In addition, the Void Tear behind it wriggled and revealed six Void Eyes, which were larger than before, like six floating cannon turrets. They intertwined and ford a purple halo behind Little Spider's head, making it look even more sacred.
The Void Cross hanging from its slender, swan-like neck had also changed significantly. There were more chains entwined around it.
Although it was just a gateway, it reflected the significant improvent of the Void Matriarch's Nest. The number of slave beasts and the effect of the Life Provisions Art should have increased.
In the early stages, due to resource limitations, the Dominator System actually leaned more towards the performance of a War King.
But starting from the Commander Rank, Little Spider also had the ability to enter the periphery of the Void to collect Space Fragnts.
Of course, the premise was not to encounter Void Turbulence and the powerful lifeforms within the Void, and it would need a lot of ti to adapt to the Void environnt.
Even so, it saved Lu Yu a huge expense, allowing the Matriarch's Nest to breed more space-type slave beasts like the Flicker Spider.
As its skill proficiency and strength increased, he could continue to increase their numbers and create a true Legion Torrent.
Troop Spawning Strategy YYDS!
However, despite this improvent, Little Spider wasn't very happy.
Instead, it was a little distressed… it was already a bit of a tight fit before, and now it couldn't get in at all.
Its body had beco too big, so it could no longer squeeze into its master's pocket.
Not being able to be close to its master was a huge blow to Little Spider.
(ó﹏ò)
But it quickly thought of the skill Little Mouse had obtained before—[Gigantification].
Since it could expand, could it also shrink?
A factor of 0.sothing was still a factor!
Even if that didn't work, it could find a size-shrinking skill.
It just had to figure out how to tell its master…
It couldn't just say it couldn't bear to be separated from its master. What if its master was disappointed in it? Little Spider didn't want that future.
It should use a different reason, like saying that suddenly shrinking during a battle could catch the enemy off guard!
"Ying!"
At this thought, Little Spider beca happy, but also a little worried.
After all, this was its first lie, apart from the side effects of using Imagination Object: Dreamy Bubble.
And it was to its master, which was the behavior of a bad child.
It felt a strange sense of guilt and immorality.
"Ying ying!"
Just this once, I won't do it again.
Little Spider secretly vowed in its heart and revealed a bright and moving smile.
"It's getting bigger and bigger…"
The feeling of his child growing up beca stronger in Lu Yu's heart. He felt that it wouldn't be long before Little Spider truly beca a peerless Spider Queen.
He wouldn't even be able to hold it in his hand to play with. It seed he really needed to find a shrinking-type skill.
Lu Yu thought to himself, extrely satisfied with Little Spider's appearance, because…
She was much better looking than the Queen Bee!
A strange sense of competitiveness.
On the other side, Little Mouse also successfully advanced through the Earth Mother Lotus Seeds.
The blood-colored ribbons of the Thousand-Faced Tentacles intertwined, forming a sphere that enveloped Little Mouse.
Behind it, the Nether World within its shadow was reflected.
The rootlets of the Thousand-Faced Soul Tree spread out, growing a little taller and exuding the aura of the Netherworld, which even spread out and transford this cave into a Nether World scene.
After more than ten minutes, the Thousand-Faced Tentacles gradually untangled and dispersed, revealing a Little Mouse with lustrous fur.
Its appearance hadn't changed much. It sat atop its enlarged Soul Cloud with a powerful presence, like a divine rat descending upon the world.
This ti, it had also awakened an intimidation ability!
"Co!"
Little Mouse beckoned with its little paw. A part of the Soul Cloud quickly changed, condensing into the shape of a small wooden fish, and then it gently tapped it.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
As the crisp sound echoed, a special Soul Magnetic Field spread out, vibrating souls.
And this was the special application of the Soul Cloud born after reaching the Gold Rank, transmitting a Soul Impact through sound.
It could change into any shape. If it beat a war drum, and a large number of mouse clones stood on the Soul Cloud, they would directly transform into an attacking force of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals!
This ti… the reason it was made into the shape of a wooden fish was because the cultivator had just called it a Joyful Rat Buddha, so it would cosplay for a bit.
To let the cultivator know, Little Mouse has whatever look you like!
Thinking of this, it raised its little head and said proudly:
"If I keep knocking like this, even the Buddha will wake up to find himself second on the leaderboard."
"That won't happen, because…"
Lu Yu shook his head and said, "The Buddha gets a cut!"
Little Mouse was instantly petrified.
Then it ca back to its senses, turned its head away angrily, and no longer wanted to talk to the contrarian cultivator.
But the anger only lasted for a mont before Little Mouse beca happy again, because its financial chain was finally reconnected.
"I've finally stepped into the Gold Rank. I can use the new mouse clones to cycle my debts.
Great Capitalist Rat will not fall!"
Little Mouse was excited, already starting to think about how to exploit the new mouse clones, revealing a wicked smile.
Lu Yu ignored Little Mouse and took Eggy out of the Void Treasure Chest.
Because this thing was a living weapon and had been suppressed for a thousand years without any issues, it could also be placed in the airless Void Treasure Chest.
Because it had previously devoured a wisp of the Hidden Bones Emperor's aura, it had fallen into a deep sleep.
The three forces within the eggshell intertwined, imprinting mysterious patterns on its surface.
It would probably be so ti before it woke up, so what Lu Yu had to do was to form a contract with it, place it in his Beast Taming Space to accelerate its growth, and…
Form his own Spiritual Puzzle!
Lu Yu was full of anticipation.
He slowly stretched out his hand, touched the eggshell, and said softly:
"Welco to the team, Eggy!"
As his voice fell, Azure-Gold spiritual power spread from Lu Yu's body, quickly intertwining in the air, connecting nodes that shone like stars, as if the myriad stars were descending.
Little Spider and Little Mouse also saw this scene, their eyes filled with anticipation.
Especially Little Mouse, which was deeply gratified.
The egg it raised, a future underling in training, was finally being contracted!
The formation array condensed, linking Lu Yu's soul with Eggy's.
It left an imprint deep within Eggy's soul. The latter seed to sense sothing, vibrated slightly, and responded, actively accepting it.
Ding!
With the soft sound of the formation array collapsing,
The third pet beast was successfully contracted!
The mont Eggy's spirituality entered the Beast Taming Space, a mutation suddenly occurred deep within Lu Yu's soul.
Within the Beast Taming Space, three different spiritualities appeared, representing Little Spider, Little Mouse, and Eggy.
Little Spider's core attributes were the Void, Dreamscape, and Illusory Realm, so the essence of its spirituality was also a silver fla, burning away the illusory and the real, a virtual-real conversion.
Little Mouse's core attributes were soul and transformation, so the essence of its spirituality was an infinitely changing, ghostly blue cloud and mist, with no fixed form, eternally changing.
It is one, and also ten thousand!
As for Eggy… although it hadn't finished gestating, its core attribute was Dragon. It had fused the life force of the Crimson Hundred-Eyed Dragon King, the Death of the Hidden Bones Emperor, and the Dusk of the End that connects life and death, so it took the form of a black hole.
It symbolized the essence of the world, carrying everything.
It could be said that any one of these pet beasts, if taken out, would be enough to make Magnate-level existences fight until their heads were broken and bleeding.
But at this mont, they were all just Lu Yu's pet beasts.
He began to piece together his Spiritual Puzzle, but the mont the three ca into contact, there was intense resistance.
Most Beast Tars would choose powers of the sa system to prevent them from repelling each other. The greater the difference in spirituality, the more violently they would resist when forming a puzzle.
And Lu Yu's three little ones all contained completely different, yet essentially high-level powers. At this mont, they repelled each other, attempting to devour the others and take the dominant position.
As they collided, all the spiritual power went berserk, as if it was about to lose balance and head towards Aberration.
Faced with this situation, Lu Yu's gaze was calm, and with a thought.
Boom!
The Thousand-Handed Demon God in The Creator slowly stretched out a hand, shaking the entire Chaos World. The endless Chaos Qi Flow tore apart, creating worlds that were instantly annihilated and turned into nothingness.
Using the Key of Truth as a dium, the power of the Taboo Rank spread out at this mont, instantly suppressing the three top-tier spiritualities and forcing them to gradually fuse.
For others, combining a puzzle of extre attributes was fraught with danger, but for Lu Yu, he just had to wait.
The silver flas burned, intertwining with the ghostly blue clouds and mist, constantly filling the black hole. A special reaction occurred, and they gradually intertwined, forming a chaos-colored egg.
The mont it was born, a Great Will descended, accompanied by the sound of a river.
Just as Lilith had said, a unique and powerful puzzle had truly attracted the attention of the Supre Mother River!
A complicated and mysterious cursed seal descended across ti and entered the Chaos Egg.
Boom!
The next mont, with it as the core, a ghostly blue region spread out, and pillars burning with silver flas appeared at its edges, enclosing it, just like…
A pasture!
And in Lu Yu's mind, the na of his puzzle appeared.
【The Herder】
"To think that I never raised cattle or sheep in my previous life, but after forming a Spiritual Puzzle in this life, I've started moonlighting as a herdsman…"
Lu Yu rubbed his chin, joking a bit.
He found it a little strange that a pile of top-tier attributes had pieced together a pasture.
Then he began to check the abilities of the Spiritual Puzzle, his expression turning to one of astonishnt as he murmured:
"What a terrifying puzzle…"
The Herder was still The Herder; there was no change.
But unlike ordinary herdsn who herd cattle and sheep, what it herded… was concepts!
Herding all life, raising all things.
Unlike fixed Spiritual Puzzles, 【The Herder】 could transform into different pastures based on the characteristics of different pet beasts.
For example, for Little Spider, it could turn into a pasture with the triple attributes of Void, Dreamscape, and Illusory Realm, amplifying its combat power.
Little Mouse would get a soul and transformation-type pasture, and Eggy would get a Dragon's Pasture, specifically strengthening the pet beast.
As for opening different pastures at the sa ti, or even combining them, for example, Little Spider Eggy to create a Void Dragon Pasture…
He couldn't do that for now.
The current pasture was still in a rudintary stage.
Only by constantly perfecting it could it give birth to more abilities.
Two-in-one, three-in-one, or even multi-in-one!
As for the thod… according to the puzzle's feedback, there were two ways: increase the fodder and increase the livestock.
The forr was not difficult. It only needed life as nutrients to create fodder on the pasture, which could in turn strengthen Lu Yu's own soul.
It could also be eaten to repair soul damage. It was a special kind of soul treasure, but only his contracted pet beasts could enjoy it!
As for the second point, increasing the livestock in the pasture, it left Lu Yu feeling a bit clueless.
Because to increase the livestock, one needed to complete the corresponding herding concept.
Void Herding?
Soul Herding?
Dragon Race Herding?
Lu Yu was a little confused as to what counted as a corresponding herding concept.
As for what ca after a successful herding, it was also unknown.
It seed that the Chaos Egg at the core of the pasture would absorb the power of the herding and gestate an Offspring Egg.
Opening it would yield unexpected rewards.
"It feels a bit like a gacha machine, with random rewards.
And this puzzle's ability, to herd all living beings, why does it sound so much like a villain? If it were to advance to its limit, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an Evil God…"
Lu Yu silently complained, planning to study it slowly in the future.
He was very satisfied with this puzzle.
You had to know, according to Lilith, puzzles were not set in stone. They would be perfected, or rather…
They would evolve!
For example, a common puzzle in the storm series—the Spirit of the Storm—could amplify wind and water-type pet beasts, allowing them to fight as if they were elental spirits born from the storm, wielding its power to whip up gales and torrential rains at will.
If it could be further perfected by contracting a large number of storm-type pet beasts, it would have a chance to transform into a Storm Giant puzzle, which could then manipulate storm disasters to destroy everything.
Under the Storm Major Category alone, there were a large number of Spiritual Puzzles such as Wings of the Storm, Eye of the Storm, Spirit of the Torrential Rain, and King of Hurricanes, each with a different path of perfection, but… they could complent each other, or even switch paths.
This was a type of evolving puzzle.
As for perfecting… that brought up another famous family in a different great domain, one that mastered the power of lava.
They possessed a puzzle—the Molten Rock Mountain.
When the puzzle was first condensed, it was just a single volcano, but it could continuously create more volcanoes, forming a boiling volcano cluster that could grant lava-type pet beasts unparalleled explosive power, incinerating all things.
Similar top-tier puzzles included the Forest of Eternity, the Iron-Blooded Dragon, the Dark Sea Abyss, and so on…
However, only after stepping into the Morning Star Rank would these puzzles display their true power, which was also the source of the qualitative change at the Morning Star Rank.
But that was still quite a distance away for Lu Yu.
After all, he was now just an ordinary Beast Tar who had just stepped into the Gold Rank.
"I wonder what The Herder will evolve into.
Pasture Owner? Or will it correspond with the Gate of Truth and advance to Gatekeeper…"
Lu Yu thought to himself, then exited his consciousness space and placed Eggy into his Beast Taming Space.
A large amount of the transford Azure-Gold liquid, under Lu Yu's control, was continuously poured into it, accelerating its growth speed.
Eggy, deep in its slumber, comfortably trembled its eggshell!
It probably wouldn't be long before it finished gestating and beca a complete form living weapon.
"The tamorphosis is complete.
It's ti to go see the Queen Bee!"
Lu Yu put on his felt hat. Just as he stepped out of the cave, a sky full of ice crystal arrows made of chill whizzed towards him, but they were easily blocked by the Thousand Faces Shield.
Lu Yu looked up, and what greeted his eyes was a world of ice and snow. An area had been transford into a land of frost, and not far away, he saw two familiar figures.
The Bald Burly Man and the Old Woman in Black!
The two of them had cold gazes, their bloodshot eyes staring fixedly at Lu Yu's disguise as The Disciple, their resentnt almost overflowing.
The Bald Burly Man gritted his teeth and said:
"Do you know how I've spent the last half hour?"
After The Disciple left, he was driven to the brink of a ntal collapse by the laughter.
Finally unable to take it anymore, he prepared for a desperate fight, only to find out after rushing out that…
All the sounds were coming from these radios. To be toyed with by such a low-level trick for half an hour was simply a monuntal humiliation!
Lu Yu ignored him and looked at the afro-haired Old Woman in Black, asking curiously:
"Where'd you get your hair done? It's quite fashionable!"
"…"
The Old Woman in Black trembled with anger, her sinister face twisted.
That one sentence dealt critical damage to her.
She really hadn't expected The Disciple to be such a scoundrel that he would even plant bombs in the radios.
One step, and she was almost blown away.
Fortunately, she had solidified the defensive skill of her Dark Demon-kin—the Shield of Darkness—and tily condensed a shield for protection.
Otherwise, she would have been blown into a pile of at paste. Even so, her hair had been blasted into an afro.
The two of them had been played like dogs by The Disciple, held in the palm of his hand.
The Bald Burly Man saw that The Disciple was ignoring him, and the rage in his heart grew even stronger.
He sneered:
"Your thods are indeed brilliant, but you should never have offended the Queen Bee. Do you think you can escape? In fact, it has already left its scent on you and told us how to identify it, disabling your transformation ability.
As long as you are in the mystic realm, you have nowhere to hide!"
As he spoke, the Extre Ice Mammoth behind him walked forward, each step shaking the earth.
On its huge body, there were also two auxiliary-type Frost Fairies, dancing gracefully, releasing rings of blue aura that blessed the Extre Ice Mammoth.
These were the Bald Burly Man's other pet beasts, and they had only one purpose, which was to…
Amplify its Frost Power!
Crack! Crack! Crack!
As it approached, the earth trembled, and a chill swept over, forming ice spikes. The ice crystals on the ground protruded, creating a dazzling forest of ice spikes with an imnse oppressive aura.
The Bald Burly Man looked at the silent Disciple and sneered:
"This area has also been completely sealed off by us. Without your transformation ability, your strength is no match for ours.
But I will not accept your surrender.
When I catch you, I will dismantle your bones piece by piece and let you taste the pain of a living death…"
The Old Woman in Black laughed sinisterly, "Hehehe… don't forget .
I'll rip out his soul, steep it in darkness, and torture it for all eternity. Then I'll use your corpse to claim credit from the Queen Bee…"
Boom!
Before she could finish, the huge and berserk Extre Ice Mammoth was directly slapped into the ground by a giant hand condensed from tree rootlets.
Instantly, ice crystals and flesh flew everywhere, and a small part of it even splashed onto the Bald Burly Man's face.
The residual frost aura from the Extre Ice Mammoth's blood spread, freezing half of his face, but it still couldn't hide the shock of the Bald Burly Man.
His pet beast…
Was instant killed!
"How can this be!"
He looked up in disbelief and saw a scene he would never forget in his life!
Behind The Disciple, a huge, circular figure shrouded in clouds and mist had appeared. It sat upon a Soul Cloud, and blood-colored ribbons converged into a Fla Wheel, shining with the Light of the Soul.
Behind it, a bizarre world was projected. The Thousand-Faced Soul Tree was rooted within, and its countless rootlets intertwined, forming a patch of Nether Earth where countless ghosts roared.
Although he couldn't see its true form, he could be sure that it was definitely a terrifying demonic beast from the Nether Earth.
The Old Woman in Black looked at the still elegant and composed Disciple in the distance, her entire body turning cold…
What they were facing,
What kind of monster was it!?
