Chapter 1398: Lin Yuan: Decked Out in Excess Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Genius was going to take them to the marsh world to be nurtured. Lin Yuan planned on nurturing the Item-Storing Walnut Tree that could bear fruit himself and evolve it to Bronze X/Epic. When he evolved the Item-Storing Walnut Tree’s quality, the quality of the fruits it produced would also be improved accordingly. This would mean that Lin Yuan would be able to receive a batch of high-quality Bronze Item-Storing Walnuts right from the start. Lin Yuan circulated his spiritual power and placed his hand on the Item-Storing Walnut Tree’s thick trunk. After a few minutes, the Item-Storing Walnut Tree’s quality evolved from Normal to Epic. These new fruits should be juicier and larger than before. Once they were ripe, they would be covered with a layer of green skin that could be peeled away to reveal the Item-Storing Walnut’s true appearance underneath. Lin Yuan did a quick calculation and found that there were exactly 60 Item-Storing Walnuts on the Item-Storing Walnut Trees. If he was lucky, he would be able to have 30 pairs. He would not have to harvest the Item-Storing Walnuts himself. Lin Yuan said to the Wind Speed Rapid Antelope, “Wind Speed Rapid Antelope, use an air blade to cut down the Item-Storing Walnuts from the tree. Then, use a tornado to pick them up.” The Wind Speed Rapid Antelope immediately jumped into action. The Item-Storing Walnuts were extremely hard. Even when the Item-Storing Walnut used all its strength, it would struggle to make a dent in the Item-Storing Walnuts. But the Item-Storing Walnut’s green skin was soft and would be peeled off when the Wind Speed Rapid Antelope used a tornado on them. This would leave the Item-Storing Walnut in a cleaned state. Soon, the tornado peeled off the skin of all 60 of the Item-Storing Walnuts, leaving the red fruits spinning in midair. The Item-Storing Walnuts were all about the same size but had different markings on them. As such, Lin Yuan would not have to worry about matching them up. Lin Yuan’s jaw almost dropped as he looked at the scarlet Item-Storing Walnuts. The Bronze/Epic Item-Storing Walnuts were completely different from the previous Bronze Item-Storing Walnuts he had seen. If someone started to play with these Item-Storing Walnuts, it was possible that they would turn bright red with gold markings. It was no wonder that it was fashionable to keep them around in the Divine Wood Federation. Lin Yuan stored the Bronze/Epic Item-Storing Walnuts away before he experimented with cutting down one of the Item-Storing Walnut Tree’s branches and injecting a large amount of pure spirit qi into it. Within a few minutes, the broken branch regrew small branches that were covered with lush leaves. As Lin Yuan continued to evolve it, the branch turned into a Normal Item-Storing Walnut Tree. Finally, Lin Yuan evolved it until it reached Bronze/Flawless. Once the Item-Storing Walnut Tree that Lin Yuan nurtured grew fully, it was also four meters tall. However, the branches were only as thick as Lin Yuan’s wrist. From this, Lin Yuan knew that the Item-Storing Walnut Trees that he used spirit qi to nurture would not be able to replace those that had been growing naturally for over three centuries. Spirit qi could not be a direct replacement for the effects of living out a lifespan. This was part of the beauty of life. Lin Yuan stored the Bronze/Flawless Item-Storing Walnut Tree into a fey storage box and thought,?If I want to nurture the Item-Storing Walnut Trees, I’ll have to ask the Luo family for one that has been growing for some time! Lin Yuan checked the time and saw that there was only half an hour left until the agreed-upon time. Hence, he hastily left the Spirit Lock spatial zone. He saw that Liu Jie and Ji Feng had removed the clothes they were initially wearing in favor of more appropriate clothes for a lavish banquet. Since they were going to attend a banquet, it would be basic etiquette to dress grandly. This was not just a sign of respect for the event but also demonstrated one’s class. During their talks with the Sincere Merchant Group, Lin Yuan and Liu Jie had learned about the gentlemanly behaviors present in the Startling Lines Continent. Liu Jie was dressed in a purple robe that had a bronze pot embroidered on it. There were hundreds of patterns of insects on the bronze pot. Ji Feng was wearing a dark blue robe that had waves embroidered on it. There were flood dragons leaping through the waves. Since Liu Jie and Ji Feng had chosen dark-colored robes, Lin Yuan decided to put on the robe that Wen Yu had specially prepared according to the information she had gathered on the Divine Wood Federation’s standard of beauty. This set of robes was also white. However, the edges of the seams had a circle of fur from the neck of the Diamond Dark Eyed Scorpion Tiger. The contrast between the gentle white and prominent black gave the robes an unspeakable aura of eliteness. There were also scales from the Dark Eyed Scorpion Tiger on the white robe. At the center of the black scales were moonstones, and the entire design formed the image of a majestic white tiger. There was also a layer of thin black fur in between the moonstones that seemed to depict tiger stripes. The top half of the robe showed a roaring tiger, while the bottom half had the embroidered image of 34 types of tigers. They were embroidered with jade-textured ivory, making it difficult to make them out against the backdrop of the white robe. However, the moon-colored shoes that Lin Yuan slipped his feet into also had pearls made from Spirit-Mouthed Gold embedded into them. Spirit-Mouthed Gold was an extremely expensive metal spiritual material that could release spirit qi. The spirit qi released by the Spirit-Mouthed Gold enabled the 34 embroidered images of tigers to shine with a jade-tinted light. Lin Yuan left the room after he was done changing to meet up with Liu Jie and Ji Feng. Liu Jie was used to seeing Lin Yuan look like the epitome of beauty. Moreover, Lin Yuan was a once-in-a-generation elite. Although he wore simple clothes normally, his aura could still carry off opulent clothes. However, Ji Feng did not interact with Lin Yuan on a regular basis and was stupefied when he saw the dressed-up Lin Yuan. Looking at Lin Yuan now, Ji Feng suddenly thought back to when he was 17 or 18 years old. At that time, he had been a top genius that could hold his head high wherever he went. But comparing the him of then to the Lin Yuan of now, he still fell short. A decade of running for his life allowed Ji Feng’s understanding of the younger generation in the Radiance Federation to be sparse. Ji Feng did not know if all the members of the younger generation were as impressive as Lin Yuan or if Lin Yuan was a special case. While they headed from the treehouse to the Luo family, the eyes of the people on the street lit up when they saw Lin Yuan. The ordinary citizens of Phoebe Zhennan City never got to see such a god-like person.
