Chapter 2997: Business Flourishing Flower! Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The Astronomical Parliament was related to Lin Yuan’s future development plans in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. If it was unnecessary, Lin Yuan would not want the Astronomical Parliament to be affected. Although what Lin Yuan was doing was not as important as the Astronomical Parliament itself, it was definitely much more important than one parliamentary meeting. Lin Yuan sent a message to Wen Yu, asking her to hold the parliamentary meeting after he returned. The Astronomical Parliament’s Star Spirit Seat required the power of willpower and laws to be used. Apart from Lin Yuan, others had to pay a huge price to provide this power of willpower and laws. In order to nurture the members who had just joined the Astronomical Parliament, resources would definitely be provided. Autumn wasted no time gathering a big group to Lin Yuan’s side. Each individual who had journeyed to Coiling Dragon Mountain in pursuit of the blessed land stood as an unparalleled elite within their faction. Though their numbers were modest, these individuals represented the apex of their faction’s combat prowess. At a glance, one could discern the presence of over 500 factions converging here. Yet, from Lin Yuan’s perspective, these factions perceived him not as a fellow warrior but as an indomitable force, akin to an iron-blooded demon! Autumn’s devastating assault had decimated more than 3/4 of Coiling Dragon Mountain’s forces, with Lin Yuan as its orchestrator. As the brought factions cast furtive glances his way, none dared meet his gaze directly. Autumn walked to Lin Yuan’s side and bowed as he said, “Young Master, all those who are willing to submit to you are here! I’ve already reprimanded them before coming. They’re all very obedient. You can give them orders directly!” Winter glanced at Autumn. With Autumn’s personality of not wanting to make any mistakes in front of Lin Yuan, the admonishment Autumn spoke of was definitely extraordinary. It seemed these people had suffered a lot before coming here! Lin Yuan took out the Faith Tree that was more than 10,000 meters tall and asked, “Autumn, Lan Lu followed you to help you control those forces. How did it go along the way?” When Autumn heard Lin Yuan mention Lan Lu, he said fairly, “Young Master, Lan Lu is not strong enough to be of much help. However, when facing those already willing to submit, Lan Lu helped me count the people in these forces and register them. Apart from me, Lan Lu can be said to be the person who knows these forces the best. Lin Yuan looked up at Lan Lu, who happened to meet his gaze and quickly lowered his head. Lan Lu did not know why Lin Yuan would suddenly ask about him. It was probably a good thing and not a bad thing. Lan Lu had tried his best along the way, hoping to perform well in front of Lin V1 Even though Lan Lu felt that it might be a good thing for Lin Yuan to look for him, he was still extremely nervous. “Autumn, you have more important things to do. Apart from you, Lan Lu knows these forces the best. Let Lan Lu watch these forces as they pledge loyalty to the Faith Tree. When the restriction is broken, we can move at any time!” The height of Lin Yuan’s Tree of Faith showed how many species he controlled. Lin Yuan’s voice was not loud, but everyone present was an expert with extraordinary strength. Naturally, they could hear Lin Yuan’s words. Lan Lu brimmed with excitement. Lin Yuan’s words elevated him to a significant role, showcasing the members’ loyalty to the Faith Tree and instantly boosting his standing. In this crucial moment, Lin Yuan didn’t opt for the strongest faction member— he chose Lan Lu, signaling he didn’t prioritize sheer strength. This presented Lan Lu with a remarkable chance for growth, despite any perceived weaknesses! Initially, the powerhouses among the gathered factions underestimated Lan Lu, viewing him as lacking strength. Yet, his assignment to the pivotal role of assessing controlled forces alongside Autumn was due to his compliance. They hadn’t anticipated his selection amidst such eminent company. Lan Lu’s luck was truly in! With his status clarified, anyone daring to disparage Lan Lu openly was courting trouble! Upon hearing Lin Yuan’s directive, Autumn turned to Lan Lu, positioned behind him, and remarked, “Young Master’s decision places you in a fortunate position. Seize this opportunity and ensure you don’t disappoint him. Otherwise, you’ll face my wrath!” Lan Lu hurriedly expressed his stance, “Thank you, Lord, for giving me this opportunity. It’s my honor! I’ll try to do everything perfectly!” After saying that, Lan Lu immediately began to take his notebook and command specific factions to declare their loyalty to the Faith Tree. Lan Lu had already heard that Lin Yuan would lead Autumn and Winter to take control of the blessed land. After Lin Yuan left with Winter and Autumn, Lan Lu was really afraid that he would not be able to control the situation. In order to prevent this from happening, Lan Lu prioritized making those powerful forces swear allegiance. This way, even if anything happened after Lin Yuan left, these powerful factions that had sworn allegiance would be able to control the situation! In less than four hours, more than half of the factions had pledged their loyalty to the Faith Tree. The height of the Faith Tree had increased from more than 10,000 meters to 23,000 meters. The faith contributed by these experts made the fruits of the Faith Tree even fuller. Lan Lu prioritized the loyalty of those powerful forces which already proved Lan Lu’s wisdom. At that moment, a powerful aura surged out from the blessed land. Accompanying this powerful aura was abundant spirit qi and elemental energy of various attributes. Lin Yuan thought, The restriction formed by the auspicious signs has finally opened! The moment the restriction was broken, the energy in Winter’s body suddenly shot out, and an extremely cold intent spread between heaven and earth. This energy did not target the members present but made them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave. It was as if their souls had been completely frozen at that moment! Under the terrifying coldness released by Winter, be it spirit qi or various types off elemental energy, they all stopped flowing. The moment Winter released his aura, hundreds of millions of golden leaves surged out of Autumn’s body. Autumn brought Lin Yuan into this mid-grade blessed land. Every leaf released from Autumn’s body was like an explorer, helping him determine the location of the auspicious sign of heaven and earth. This time, Lin Yuan’s luck was indeed as good as before. In just half a minute, Autumn confirmed the location of this auspicious sign and brought Lin Yuan to it. Lin Yuan originally thought that this auspicious sign would be an animal, but he did not expect it to be a plant! This auspicious tree looked extremely ordinary from the outside. There were seven to eight fat and wide leaves growing on a leaf stem that was nearly half a meter long. These leaves were gradually discolored and darker towards the edges, giving off an unhealthy feeling. If Autumn had not confirmed the identity of this plant, Lin Yuan would not have been able to confirm that this ordinary-looking plant was an auspicious sign! Lin Yuan used Morbius to Spirit Lock this auspicious sign that had not even reached the Bronze. At the same time, he checked its data. [Fey Name]: Business Flourishing Flower [Fey Species]: Peach/Rose [Fey Grade]: Elite (9/10) [Fey Type]: Wood [Fey Quality]: Epic Abilities: [Overflowing Domain]: Let the ground you take root in contain a large amount of vitality. This vitality can increase the strength of all living beings here and increase the speed at which you absorb energy and your bloodline transforms. [Flower Nurturing]: When a flower blooms on its own, the flower can amplify the living beings in the area, making it easier for these living beings to nurture bloodlines. Even if a species that can’t nurture descendants eats a flower it bears, it can definitely nurture descendants. When Lin Yuan beheld the two abilities, shock coursed through him. The Business Flourishing Flower was an Elite fey! An Elite fey wielded astonishing power. It was no wonder it was hailed as an auspicious sign! Each of these abilities could benefit a party, albeit in differing ways. Overflowing Domain possessed a sweeping amplification prowess. Within its radius, all living beings could accelerate their strength growth. In essence, it augmented the potential of life within its domain. The Business Flourishing Flower’s Overflow Domain not only bolstered the growth and strength of other beings but also facilitated their bloodline transformation. If Lin Yuan planted the Business Flourishing Flower on Season Cycle to collaborate with the higher faerie, the beings there could periodically undergo a metamorphosis, synergizing with Season Cycle and the Cleansing Breath Soil! As for the Elite Flower Nurturing, it ensured bloodline continuation. The flowers it yielded resolved the challenge of reproducing many species’ bloodlines. For instance, the Nine-Headed Snakes often faced bloodline continuity issues, resorting to child theft. If the Nine-Headed Snakes acquired a Business Flourishing Flower, coupled with Flower Nurturing, their numbers and strength would surge dramatically! In a species’ developmental hierarchy, the tougher the reproduction challenge, the loftier the bloodline tier. Lin Yuan marveled at the joy powerful species would experience upon discovering the Business Flourishing Flower! It had been quite some time since Lin Yuan had nurtured an Elite fey. After Elite feys reached Epic, they could obtain three exclusive skills after advancing to Bronze. Lin Yuan could choose from the three exclusive skills and choose the one that suited his needs the most. As the contractor of the spirit-locked Business Flourishing Flower, Lin Yuan could use its ability. It was most important to suit Lin Yuan’s needs! Heaven and Earth feys grew extremely quickly. After Lin Yuan removed the restriction on the Business Flourishing Flower, it immediately evolved to Silver. After advancing to Bronze, three young leaves grew out of the stem of the flower that was half a meter tall. In the middle of the leaves was a bud the size of a green bean. When Lin Yuan saw this, he thought, It’s not difficult for this Business Flourishing Flower to bloom. It has already grown buds during the process of evolving to Bronze! Lin Yuan was about to choose from the three exclusive skills. The first exclusive skill was called Overdraft Evolution. [Overdraft Evolution]: Mobilize the potential of the lifeforms within the range. Induce the potential of these lifeforms in advance and let them evolve in a short period, quickly increasing their bloodline and strength (Increasing the growth speed of the lifeform in advance will affect the upper limit of the lifeform’s future growth). Overdraft Evolution could allow Lin Yuan to nurture a group of capable generals under his command. However, this method of nurturing would affect the future. Lin Yuan was very clear that overdrawing one’s future in exchange for short-term benefits would only bring disadvantages to the growth of a life. If Lin Yuan was in a difficult situation and was targeted by an enemy, he would need to find a way to break out of the situation through martial force. In that case, Lin Yuan might choose Overdraft Evolution for the Business Flourishing Flower. However, everything was going smoothly for Lin Yuan. Be it Sky City or the faith country, they were both developing. There was really no need for Lin Yuan to overdraft and evolve. The second exclusive skill was called Business Support. [Business Support]: Every living being’s bloodline will successfully transform under the support of their own ability. Feeding their offspring will give them a business mark. The business mark can increase their growth speed. After the business mark reaches level one, the growth of their grade and quality will be unrestricted. Business Support was an exclusive skill that targeted the Business Flourishing Flower itself. At present, the Bronze Business Flourishing Flower had an area of nearly one square kilometer. A square kilometer of land could accommodate hundreds of thousands of living beings. With the Business Flourishing Flower’s support, these living beings could easily return many business marks to the Business Flourishing Flower, allowing it to evolve in grade and increase its strength. However, as Morbius continued to improve, it no longer had many restrictions on spirit-locked feys. Business Support could indeed allow the Business Flourishing Flower to grow rapidly. However, Lin Yuan would plant the Business Flourishing Flower on Season Cycle, so it would grow very quickly. This made the exclusive skill a little useless. Lin Yuan continued to investigate the third exclusive skill, Burning Blossom Amplification. [Burning Blossom Amplification]: Use the flower that blooms on its own to let he flower enter the burning state. After entering the burning state, the flower itself will not be consumed, but it will lose the ability to help other species reproduce. Every flower that enters the burning state will enhance Overflowing Domain. Overflowing Domain was the basic ability of the Business Flourishing Flower as an auspicious sign. Enhancing this ability was equivalent to increasing the fey’s value. However, the price of losing the ability to help other species reproduce was more or less too high to let the bloomed flowers enter a burning state..
