2802 10-Winged Red Thorn and Silver Corona! Wen Yu did not interact with Luo Lan much in her day-to-day life, but she had a good impression of her. Luo Lan ruled the Iron Hammer Federation with benevolence and righteousness. The Radiance Federation had always been ruled by the same creed. Luo Lan had singlehandedly improved the happiness of all the Iron Hammer citizens. In the past, the Iron Hammer Federation had been covered by snow, and food had been scarce. In spite of the harsh conditions, Luo Lan had managed to breathe new life into the Iron Hammer Federation after taking over as ruler. With Lin Yuan’s help, the Snow Celestial Mountain had transformed into a faerie. The Iron Hammer Federation had been buckling under snow and ice because of the Snow Celestial Mountain. Now, the Iron Hammer Federation had the best development of the three federations in the Startling Lines Continent. Normally, a federation filled with Scholars like the Great Lush Federation should be the one that advanced the fastest. However, Jin Qianxun had been fully focused on the harbor, causing many of the Great Lush Scholars to depart for the Divine Wood and Iron Hammer Federations. This strongly facilitated the homogeneity of the Startling Lines Continent’s culture. The halt in the Great Lush Federation’s development was linked to the decisions of the one in power. However, the Divine Wood Federation’s weather conditions were even better than that of the Iron Hammer Federation before the Snow Celestial Mountain left. They were overtaken because Yi Huailong prioritized the profits of the Yi family before that of the Divine Wood Federation. Wen Yu and Lin Yuan were aware of this. But neither of them commented about it because Yi Huailong had not made a mistake pertaining to the Divine Wood Federation’s management. If the Startling Lines Continent’s three federations were going to be addressed, the Great Lush Federation should be first. Compared to Yi Huailong, Luo Lan stood out as a shining beacon. Luo Lan lacked power of her own, but Lin Yuan had the ability to help her increase it. The gap in her management abilities could be compensated by an increase in power. Yin Lin was not surprised by Luo Lan’s choice. Although Yin Lin and Luo Lan were not as close as Su Yiren and Luo Lan were, Yin Lin also communicated in depth with Luo Lan and gave her significant help. Luo Lan had told Yin Lin long ago that she intended to follow Lin Yuan. Yin Lin envied Luo Lan’s carefreeness. Luo Lan did not have any family. Without her family tying her down, she only needed to ensure that the Iron Hammer Federation was properly managed. By representing her own family and heading to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, she would also be able to achieve better development. Alas, Yin Lin could not do the same. She had too many responsibilities that required her to answer to her family and the Azure Federation. If she left, it would have a severe impact on her family. The Azure Federation could no longer be considered one of the three major federations alongside the Radiance Federation and Freedom Federation. The Azure Federation had suffered the heaviest losses during the dead spirits crisis. As an Azure Envoy, Yin Lin had also taken on the associating duties. Once Luo Lan was done stating her decision, Yin Lin turned to look at Lin Yuan, Wen Yu, and Liu Jie. “Leo, Libra, Virgo, I have decided to stay. The Azure Federation and Azure Cloud Leopard family need me.” Wen Yu had already seen this decision coming from Yin Lin, but Liu Jie frowned when he heard what she said. In Liu Jie’s opinion, Yin Lin had only made it this far because of Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan had saved her in the same way that he had saved Liu Jie. Without Lin Yuan, the two of them would be disabled and crippled. It was wrong for Yin Lin to make such a decision at such a time. However, Liu Jie did not say anything because Lin Yuan had asked the Astronomical Parliament’s members to state their opinions and was not making any decisions on their behalf. However, Lin Yuan could request them to follow him to the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Lin Yuan looked at Yin Lin’s expression and knew she had only come to such a decision after deep and careful contemplation. He looked at Yin Lin seriously before saying somberly, “I respect your decision.” Bu Po had been the first to state his stance because his world revolved around his sister. After Yin Lin expressed her stance, Wo Lun, Ta Lei, and the rest followed. In the end, the only members of the Astronomical Parliament whom Lin Yuan would be taking to the Sky Beyond the Clouds were Bei Xu, Su Yiren, and Luo Lan. Now that the official matter was settled, the atmosphere became lively. Lin Yuan was about to head to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, and it was highly possible this would be their final goodbye. Lin Yuan had made many arrangements for the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting. Although Yin Lin, Ta Lei, Bu Po, Wo Lun, and the rest would not be following Lin Yuan to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, they had all contracted the Lifespan Mice and were worthy of being the protectors of this Class 2 world. Lin Yuan would increase their strength so they could safeguard the main world together. Lin Yuan was assured in their personalities and characters. Otherwise, he would not have nurtured them so seriously when he accepted them into the Astronomical Parliament. While Lin Yuan was making the arrangements for them, his soul started to react. Red Thorn and Silver Corona were done clearing all the dead spirit corpses in the main world. At first, they only absorbed the death aura that Summer had funneled into the sea below the Startling Lines Continent. But after the dead spirits crisis ended, there were many dead spirit corpses left in the main world. The demon insects could consume and digest the dead spirit corpses. However, it would be a waste to do so because Red Thorn and Silver Corona could also do the same. Hence, Lin Yuan had instructed Keira to commandeer the army of demon insects to move all the dead spirit corpses to the area covered by Red Thorn and Silver Corona so they could use the energy to evolve their bloodlines. Red Thorn and Silver Corona needed blood energy to evolve. Lin Yuan’s Body of All Spirits could not directly increase their strength. Moreover, using inappropriate methods to forcefully evolve Red Thorn and Silver Corona would not do them any good. Lin Yuan intended to head into the sea under the Startling Lines Continent immediately after the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting ended to check on Red Thorn and Silver Corona so he could see how these two fellows had improved. In previous Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meetings, the members always brought Lin Yuan various information. But now, the main world no longer had any secrets from Lin Yuan. Hence, the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting would be coming to an end very soon. … After the Astronomical Parliament meeting ended, Lin Yuan gave Wen Yu and Liu Jie a heads-up before he immediately headed to the Startling Lines Continent. Morbius was also in the Startling Lines Continent, and Lin Yuan could meet up with Morbius there. As for the other members of the Astronomical Parliament, they all rushed to the Radiance Federation. During the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting, Peace had only said that she did not want to go to the Sky Beyond the Clouds and nothing else. This was not because she did not want to communicate with Lin Yuan but because she felt slightly guilty toward him and did not know how to face him. However, Peace still had no idea where she had gone wrong to have gotten herself in such a state. … Lin Yuan communicated with Morbius through their minds. When Morbius controlled the Pure Land of Bliss personally, it could activate a larger area than Lin Yuan could. Hence, Morbius could help Lin Yuan collect the spirit qi crystals extremely quickly. When Morbius found out that Lin Yuan was coming, it did not wait for him in Thick Soil City but headed directly to the sea where Red Thorn and Silver Corona were located. Ever since Morbius gained a body and could move around freely in the main world, its demeanor was extremely carefree. It really enjoyed its current condition. Despite being the Totem God, all it had been able to do for the past few long epochs was sleep and had been unable to produce its body. This was very ironic. However, the awakened Morbius did not regret the decision it made with its partner back then. After the passing of numerous long epochs, Morbius had gained the companionship of another partner. In this entire world, Lin Yuan was the only one Morbius cared about. Red Thorn and Silver Corona had left the sea once they no longer had any more resources to absorb. The moment they saw Morbius, they immediately gathered around it and instinctively saw Morbius as Lin Yuan’s proxy. Morbius could not help but smile faintly at Silver Corona and Red Thorn’s actions. Morbius entertained Silver Corona and Red Thorn but did not retract its aura. Once Silver Corona and Red Thorn drew near to Morbius, they did not leap into its arms like they did with Lin Yuan. Rather, they instinctively halted. Both of them had realized that this figure resembled Lin Yuan but was not truly him. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮 Yet, Morbius did carry a concentrated aura of Lin Yuan. Otherwise, Silver Corona and Red Thorn would have already attacked Morbius. Morbius said coolly, “Silver Corona and Red Thorn, you have done well with your evolutions. Yuan will definitely be surprised when he arrives! He has never stopped investing in the two of you.” Red Thorn and Silver Corona did not let down their guard because Morbius carried Lin Yuan’s aura. Morbius was very satisfied with Silver Corona and Red Thorn’s actions. Silver Corona and Red Thorn were now both 10-winged fairies. Red Thorn’s bloodline was slightly stronger than that of Silver Corona. Silver Corona and Red Thorn were only able to have such sensitivity and intelligence because their bloodlines were so elite. Lin Yuan’s other feys would not be able to tell Morbius apart from Lin Yuan this easily. As the Totem God, Morbius had created this appearance using its totem power. Its totem power enabled it to replicate Lin Yuan’s spiritual attributes and bloodline, much less his aura. When Lin Yuan rushed to the shallow sea, he was drawn in by Red Thorn’s aura from far off. Red Thorn’s bloodline power suppressed that of Silver Corona, and its appearance was much more exquisite than before. Lin Yuan used True Data to check on Red Thorn. [Fey Name]: Red Thorn (Ten-Winged Fairy) (Thousand Eyes Relinquish) [Fey Species]: Rafflesia genus/fairy species [Fey Grade]: Suzerain (8/10) [Fey Type]: Source/Wood [Fey Quality]: Myth III Abilities: [Mouth of Relinquish]: Secretes vigorous digestive fluids with powerful corrosive properties, allowing faster absorption of energy from food. The Tongue of Relinquish inside the mouth can significantly increase digestion speed. It can also release a special corrosive fluid from the consumed flesh and blood. When the Tongues of Relinquish pierce a target, the tip of the tongue can be severed 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 manipulate the target to appear as though it was 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 and collect flesh and blood energy. [Eye of Relinquish]: Eyes formed using blood and flesh energy. Each eye contains a substantial amount of blood and flesh energy. When the number of Eyes of Relinquish on every Mouth of Relinquish is maintained below 60, they can only store energy. When the number of Eyes of Relinquish is above 60, those Eyes of Relinquish can be turned into an energy ray at any time. [Sea of Flowers State Transition]: By rapidly depleting stored energy, the sea of flowers’ child ramets’ attacking power and mobility can be improved significantly. The child ramets’ weapons will also morph to increase functionality. [Demon Spirit Curse Kill]: When any of the ortet’s ramets touch an enemy target and break through the target’s defense, the target will be cursed. Each curse carries a negative effect that stacks with every additional attack. [Tongue Pouch Births Demons]: When a corpse is 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 containing a fairy bloodline. Its previous power will be retained, and its power can increase 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 one level lower and be controlled by Red Thorn. The fairy will acquire the same abilities and, with sufficient vitality, can become an individual Mouth of Relinquish (The bound fairy’s bloodline and power will increase 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]: Emits a vast number of spores, which can absorb energy or flesh energy supplied by Red Thorn, out of its spore cavity to rapidly grow ramets and child ramets controlled by the ortet. [Wither Glory]: Red Thorn can rapidly absorb energy from the soil and channel it into the sea of flowers. As long as the soil has the roots of the child ramets and ramets, the withered sea of flowers will 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 entering the spores will transform 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).
