Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)

Kani hurriedly shook her head.

How could a ten-winged Suzerain/Myth fairy eradicate a disaster that was a pinnacle Class 2 rodent infestation? Not even a 12-winged World Emperor/Divine Kingdom fairy could accomplish this. If they tried to take on the rodent infestation with force, they would only end up as part of the mice's meal.

Lin Yuan did not know what Kani was thinking. If he did, he would have laughed to himself.

It was true that Red Thorn was a ten-winged Suzerain/Myth fairy and.

However, its abilities were very special. Hence, any mice weaker than Red Thorn would be promptly devoured by the sea of flowers. There was also a high possibility that the mice that were stronger than Red Thorn would be killed by the attacks from the sea of flowers.

If Lin Yuan was willing to waste a long time here and Red Thorn continued extending its sea of flowers toward the rodent infestation, it might end up consuming all the mice! The sea of flowers that Red Thorn controlled was truly terrifying when it spread out and was operating at top capacity.

However, Lin Yuan did not intend to waste too much time there. He only wanted to capture a few mice so he could cultivate them.

Once the female mice were allowed to reproduce endlessly, it would take hundreds of years for Lin Yuan to put a stop to this pinnacle Class 2 rodent infestation.

Lin Yuan did not have so much time to waste.

If the rodent infestation grew stronger or reached the territory of powerful species, the powerful species would send experts to deal with the rodent infestation. If none of the species stepped in, Honor Absent Palace would have to act.

Lin Yuan needed to use this opportunity to increase Red Thorn's power. It would evolve from Suzerain VIII/Myth III to Sovereign/Creation while simultaneously rescuing the species that were being invaded by the mice.

In the main world, Lin Yuan felt compelled to save the world because he saw it as his home.

But this was Lin Yuan's first time in the Sky Beyond the Clouds, so he did not feel much attachment to it. If he felt compelled to save every place, he would not be able to lead a faction.

Spring and Winter shared a look. They were worried that Lin Yuan would ask them to handle the Class 2 rodent infestation.

It would not be difficult for them to put a pid on the pinnacle Class 2 rodent infestation. All it required was some effort.

However, Spring and Winter believed that doing so would lead to repercussions and karma.

In actuality, a disaster like a rodent infestation was considered natural in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. The rodent infestation would eliminate the weaker species while allowing many resources to be returned to the environment.

Each time a disaster broke out, there would be changes and new growth in that location. Many strong species used opportunities like this to rise up and begin thriving.

At Spring and Winter's level, almost every expert believed in the seemingly baseless karma. Even the most powerful lifeform would suffer after creating too much negative karma.

Red Thorn had not had such a large meal in a long time.

The mice's fur and bones were exceptionally tough because their diet mainly consisted of minerals.

The mice's flesh provided a sea of energy to Red Thorn. Their bones and fur could also strengthen the vines in the sea of flowers.

The further they traveled, the more mice they encountered. Slowly, Red Thorn was unable to match its consumption rate to the increasing quantity of mice.

Red Thorn produced a few Mouths of Relinquish before sacrificing the Eyes of Relinquish on the Mouths of Relinquish.

The energy in the Eyes of Relinquish entered the sea of flowers, and the sea of flowers began expanding at many times its original rate.

The sea of flowers spread rapidly, and the brutal vine ramets took care of the swarms of mice.

The sea of flowers was even able to digest the wall of mice that was tens of meters tall rapidly.

Red Thorn's Spore Growth rapidly unleashed its effects.

Each time the brutal vine ramet consumed a mouse, the special spore cavities would spray even more spores to increase Red Thorn's control over the battle.

Red Thorn quickly absorbed the sea of vitality and sighed. "Yuan, this is the best meal I've ever had! These mice are filled with energy. They are much better than the dimensional lifeforms that come from dimensional rifts!"

Lin Yuan smiled vexedly. It was true that even the dimensional lifeforms of Class 5 dimensional rifts were limited in power.

Once Red Thorn's power reached a certain level, the weaker dimensional lifeforms' bodies no longer contained sufficient energy to meet Red Thorn's needs.

Later, Red Thorn consumed numerous dead dimensional lifeforms. The combined power of the deceased dimensional lifeforms was even less than that of the dimensional lifeforms that came from Class 5 dimensional rifts. They could not compare to the Suzerain mice at all.

It did not take long for Red Thorn to evolve from Suzerain VIII to Suzerain IX.

"Red Thorn, you will always be able to eat food of this level from now on. While you're eating and digesting, you don't have to gobble them up and increase the burden on the Mouths of Relinquish."

When Red Thorn heard what Lin Yuan said, it flew up from his shoulder and gently pressed its lips to his face.

"Yuan, if that's the case, using Tongue Pouch Births Demons to turn corpses into fairies will progress much faster than before! I also no longer have to be worried about the fairies affecting the speed of my evolution! Why don't I use the brutal vine ramets to pick some of the better mice and raise them in the sea of flowers? We can then nurture these mice!"

Red Thorn's ideas matched Lin Yuan's own.

"Okay, Red Thorn. You can select the mice! Remember not to keep too many of them. Around 30,000 will be sufficient!"

Kani did not know what to say as she watched the interactions between Lin Yuan and Red Thorn.

Before Lin Yuan summoned Red Thorn, Kani would have protested if Lin Yuan wanted to bring the Rough Scale and Rough Scale Tooth Mice to North of the Lonely River. She did not want there to be another outbreak of a rodent infestation in North of the Lonely River.

But now, the calamity-causing mice were nothing more than energy-supplying food to Red Thorn.

She never expected the mice to one day end up in such a predicament!

"Yuan, don't worry. I will try my best to find more mice kings while I'm selecting the mice. I can use my abilities to turn the mice kings into fairies before turning them into eight-winged fairies. The mice kings will be able to help me manage the swarms of mice! The mice will become a buffet that I can dig into whenever I want!"

Lin Yuan did not have any objections to what Red Thorn said.

When Red Thorn used Tongue Pouch Births Demons and Demon Transformed Bound Fairy to turn lifeforms or corpses into fairies, it required many resources. This would definitely affect Red Thorn's development, and if it were serious, it would even slow down Red Thorn's rate of evolution.

Normally, opportunities like this would be left to powerful lifeforms and corpses. This was the only way that Red Thorn's investment would be worth it.

However, it would not be a bad decision to invest the resources into the mice kings.

Nonetheless, keeping the mice within Red Thorn and Silver Corona's seas of flowers would not guarantee that the mice would never escape. Once they escaped and spread, Lin Yuan would need to invest effort into stamping out the rodent infestations.

There were many villages in the faith country. One rodent infestation that got out of hand would definitely affect many key areas of the faith country and cause the supply of faith from the faith country to decrease drastically.

If Red Thorn used Tongue Pouch Births Demons and Demon Transformed Bound Fairy to nurture eight-winged fairies, they would be able to manage the mice tide effectively and prevent it from spreading to other areas.

Lin Yuan headed east continuously, and Red Thorn's sea of flowers followed him.

As for the mice that Red Thorn could not consume, it drained their energy, and they wilted immediately. Red Thorn had used all of its energy on hunting and consuming the mice.

Suddenly, Lin Yuan sensed a special energy flowing from Red Thorn. He knew that it was about to evolve.

Spring and Winter would naturally protect Red Thorn, and there was no need for Red Thorn to worry that it would be endangered by the World Cleansing. All it needed to do was continue hunting the mice!

After its evolution, Red Thorn's bloodline also became more concentrated.

However, it was still far from becoming a 12-winged fairy!

Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the Creation Breed Red Thorn.

[Fey Name]: Red Thorn (Ten-Winged Fairy) (Thousand Eyes Relinquish)

[Fey Species]: Rafflesia genus/fairy species

[Fey Grade]: Suzerain (10/10)

[Fey Type]: Source/Wood

[Fey Quality]: Creation I

Abilities:

[Mouth of Relinquish]: Secretes vigorous digestive fluids with powerful corrosive properties, allowing faster absorption of energy in the food. The Tongue of Relinquish inside the mouth is able to increase digestion speed by several times. It can also secrete a special corrosive fluid from the flesh and blood that it consumes. When the Tongues of Relinquish pierce a target, the tip of the tongue can be cut off and left in the target's body. While the target remains alive, the tip of the tongue will control the target's spirit and soul. After the target dies, the tip of the tongue can control and manipulate the target to make it appear as though it is still alive.

[Brutal Carnivore Vine]: The vines contain digestive fluids that grow in midair, and the sharp teeth on the inner side of the vine can grind off and collect flesh and blood energy.

[Eye of Relinquish]: Eyes formed by using blood and flesh energy. Each eye contains a huge amount of blood and flesh energy. When the number of Eyes of Relinquish on every Mouth of Relinquish is maintained below 60, they are merely able to store energy. When the number of Eyes of Relinquish is above 60, those Eyes of Relinquish that are above 60 can be turned into an energy ray at any time.

[Sea of Flowers State Transition]: By quickly using up the stored-up energy, the sea of flowers' child ramets' attacking power and mobility can be improved by several times. The child ramets' weapons will also morph in a way that increases their functionality.

[Demon Spirit Curse Kill]: Whenever any of the ortet's ramets touches an enemy target and breaks through a target's defense, the target will be cursed. Every curse carries a negative effect that will be stacked with every additional attack.

[Tongue Pouch Births Demons]: When a corpse is being consumed, it can be stored in the tongue pouch and nurtured. If the corpse's power is intact, it can be nurtured into a special lifeform that contains a fairy bloodline. Its previous power will be retained, and its power can also be increased when tempered by blood energy.

[Demon Transformed Bound Fairy]: Its bloodline will be injected into the demon nurtured by Tongue Pouch Births Demons. The demon will transform into a fairy with a bloodline that is one level lower and is controlled by Red Thorn. The fairy will take on the same abilities and, with sufficient vitality, can become an individual Mouth of Relinquish (The bound fairy's bloodline and power will be increased as the main body evolves. The nutrients absorbed by the bound spirit's Mouth of Relinquish will be channeled to the main body.)

Exclusive Skill:

[Spore Growth]: Spits a huge amount of spores, which can absorb the energy or flesh energy supplied by Red Thorn, out of its spore cavity to quickly grow ramets and child ramets that are controlled by the ortet.

[Wither Glory]: Red Thorn can rapidly absorb the energy from the soil and pour the energy into the sea of flowers. As long as the soil has the roots of the child ramets and ramets, the withered sea of flowers would reach its prime state.

[Spores Destruction Death Order]: Each time the entity grown from a spore is on the brink of death after being attacked by the enemy, the enemy's energy that enters the spores will turn into pure death aura and death curse energy. The death aura will trigger the effects of the death curse energy, and a time can be set to decide when the accumulated death curse energy will attempt to kill the target (the target's survival is linked to the strength of the vitality in the target's body).

[Spore Division]: Each time spores are produced, the spores will absorb energy from the surroundings and divide. The division will not affect the spores' differentiation potential.

Red Thorn asked Lin Yuan questions during its evolution. Each time it evolved, it would ask Lin Yuan about the direction of its evolution!

Lin Yuan thought carefully before instructing Red Thorn to continue evolving its proliferation ability.

Red Thorn's Creation Breed exclusive skill was related to its proliferation ability.

Spore Division seemed simple, but it actually increased Red Thorn's overall power by several times. Red Thorn's sea of flowers could now grow twice as fast!

The evolved Red Thorn immediately used its new exclusive skill.

After the sea of flowers consumed the wall of mice that was 200 to 300 meters tall, it suppressed the mice and occupied the mice's living space.
