1856 Flower Basket of Calamity Both the heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls and Wood-Building Winged Sandfly pupas would not allow the elemental energy within them to escape in order to maintain the purity of the elemental energy. Thus, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil had no idea what the Wood-Building Winged Sandfly pupas were when it saw them. The Element Well could block spirit. As such, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil was confused when Lin Yuan handed the glass bowl to it. It had no idea what Lin Yuan was trying to do. !! “Drink every drop of this water,” said Lin Yuan. There was an unspoken ban in the Demon Church. When devils were produced in the Demon Church, they did not possess human thoughts. In order to help them communicate with spirit qi professionals better, a scholarly spirit qi professional was assigned to be eaten by every newborn devil. When the devil consumed the spirit qi professional, it would immediately be able to think for itself. To a certain extent, the devil would also take on a part of the tastes of the human it consumed. Hence, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil detested insects, especially fat ones. However, Lin Yuan had already issued his instruction. Fear and submission won out over the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s distaste for insects, and it gulped down the green fluid. Since Lin Yuan said that it had to finish every drop, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil even started to lick the bowl. At that moment, elation erupted across the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s face because it sensed how pure the wood-elemental energy in the water was. The Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s true form was a female devil who wore a nun’s tunic and had a breathtakingly beautiful face. It did not have many accessories. If Lin Yuan used the perspective from his past life, it came across as extremely poor. Suddenly, the pattern of numerous green vines appeared all over the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s tunic. As such, the tunic was no longer as plain as it had been. Circles of flowering vines wrapped around the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s bare feet. Rosy liveliness appeared in the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s cheeks. As such, its devil aura became blurred. An emerald green flower basket weaved from vines appeared in the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s hands. The vines that made up the flower basket were neither gold nor jade. The emerald green was mesmerizing. The green leaves that decorated the basket were layered. It was as though all the green in the world was contained in the flower basket. Due to this, the flower basket appeared extremely lush. Before a devil was contracted, no one could say what would happen to it once it was contracted. When the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil was fed with various types of pure elemental energy, Calamity Flowers would bloom in its hand. The Goddess of Mercy had been right about this, and so had the Moon Empress. But before the Calamity Flowers were produced, the first elemental energy it absorbed would turn into the Flower Basket of Calamity. From now on, this elemental energy would become the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s life elemental energy. This first hint of elemental energy had determined the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s abilities. Lin Yuan had no lack of combat abilities. Thunder-, dark-, and fire-elemental energy were not suitable to become the Flower Basket of Calamity’s life elemental energy. Eventually, Lin Yuan decided that water-, earth-, and wood elemental energy were good choices. Lin Yuan could fuse with Dark Blue and turn into a merman. Now that he had contracted the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil and was about to contract a major sea devil that was also water-type, the strongest type of element in Lin Yuan’s possession was water. If the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s life elemental energy was water-type, Lin Yuan’s water-type arsenal would be strengthened, and he would also become more powerful when he was in his merman form. However, Lin Yuan was always afraid of becoming too specialized. He wanted to go down the path of being all-inclusive. Thus, he gave up on water-type without hesitation. If the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil’s life elemental energy was earth-type, its abilities would be skewed toward defense. However, Lin Yuan’s defensive abilities were covered by a three-pronged approach. During the battle against the Freedom Federation envoy group, Lin Yuan had a taste of a battle to the death. Offense would always be more useful than defense because it decided the direction of the battle. Even if one was an impenetrable shell, one would only be able to be on the receiving end of beatings. This was why although Liu Yifan was the Radiance Envoy and clearly the strongest in the team, he had seemed the least impressive. As such, Lin Yuan eventually picked wood-type. Wood-elemental energy was the most moderate out of all the types of elemental energy. It could be extended into combat, defense, healing, and control abilities. Lin Yuan’s combat system had already taken shape. The biggest benefit to Lin Yuan would only come from the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil choosing this moderate path. Moreover, he would only use the best methods to nurture the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil. With so much elemental energy, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil would be able to become powerful even if it chose the moderate path. At that moment, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil held onto the Flower Basket of Calamity excitedly and bowed to Lin Yuan to express its gratitude. “Lord, thank you for improving me. With you around, I will definitely be able to become a higher devil. I will do all I can to serve you!” Intermediate devils saw higher devils as pipe dreams. It was an obstacle that all of them would run into. Although the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil had believed Lin Yuan when he said he could nurture it into a higher devil, it did not understand his methods. But now that it had experienced the methods for itself, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil estimated that it only needed four to five more types of pure elemental energy for its bloodline to evolve into higher devil. The more types of pure elemental energy the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil absorbed, the stronger its bloodline would become. Its power was related to the elemental energy it absorbed. Lin Yuan did not know what the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil was thinking. He still had nine types of pure elemental energy that he had not fed to the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil yet. ... Lin Yuan instructed the Wind Speed Rapid Antelope to bring over the four types of Heavenly Maiden Sleet elemental pearls. After the Spirit Lock spatial zone’s most recent evolution, the Heavenly Maiden Sleet elemental pearls were no longer rare. The next time he saw Hu Quan, Lin Yuan could upgrade his chain of pearls by asking Hu Quan to use the Wood Weaving House Centipede to create a chain of Heavenly Maiden Sleet elemental pearls.
