Chapter 603: Evil Flames Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios When Lin Yuan saw Chu Ci’s flames, he knew that she had gained immunity against fire after contracting the Burning Sunflower. There was a Bronze/Epic Usnea near Chu Ci. Lin Yuan had strengthened the Usnea especially for Chimey. Chimey preferred Usnea to the Celery Vine that it usually ate. Thus, Lin Yuan had casually placed the Bronze/Epic Usnea in the training room. Other than Chimey, Genius also occasionally munched on the Usnea’s leaves. However, the Usnea’s leaves that were near to Chu Ci were retreating continuously. Lin Yuan hastily moved the Usnea toward him and held up a shriveled leaf. He saw that the initially plump leaf was now rather dry. Lin Yuan had chosen this Usnea because it had gained the Energy Fluid exclusive skill after evolving to Bronze grade. Energy Fluid was the best exclusive skill to improve the Usnea’s taste. This was the reason Lin Yuan had chosen to evolve it to Bronze/Epic. Energy Fluid made the Usnea’s leaves exceptionally plump and allowed them to contain more water than other Usneas. The causes of the dry and shriveled leaves were more than exposure to the blazing flames. Lin Yuan checked the recently contracted Burning Sunflower’s attributes with True Data. [Fey Name]: Burning Sunflower [Fey Species]: Aizoaceae/Twin species [Fey Grade]: Normal (1/10) [Fey Type]: Spiritual/Source [Fey Quality]: Normal Abilities: [Flames]: Raises the temperature of the flames around the twins. The flames can also deplete hidden water. Lin Yuan was stupefied by what he found out. The Flames ability increased the flames around the Burning Sunflower Twins and depleted the amount of water in its target’s body. Lin Yuan was not interested in how the ability increased the flames because the Burning Sunflower’s rising temperature was a double-edged sword. It harmed its enemies but also itself. The Burning Sunflower’s ability to deplete hidden water did not affect Chu Ci much. Firstly, Chu Ci was immune to fire as the Burning Sunflower’s contractor. The Silver/Fantasy Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s body of flesh could be damaged. However, the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s skin had become metallic long ago since it had been consuming metal for a long time. The Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s metal skin allowed it to counter the Burning Sunflower’s ability to deplete water from inside the body well. If other feys did not have the same metallic skin as the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull, their skin would crack after prolonged water depletion. After some time passed, they would be roasted by the Burning Sunflower’s flames. Even if the Burning Sunflower did not burn the target, their muscles could also tear during battle due to lack of water. Lin Yuan felt that this ability was even more vicious than the poison of some poison-type feys. Chu Ci was delighted after she was done contracting the Burning Sunflower and summoned the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull with a wave of her hand. “You’ll have another good buddy from now on, Little Iron Block,” said Chu Ci as she patted the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s neck. Lin Yuan’s eyelid twitched. They might be buddies. But good buddies? With the Burning Sunflower in your possession, the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull should be prepared to find itself being occasionally roasted in battle. “Lin Yuan, I think I know how to form my combat system now that I’ve contracted the Burning Sunflower.” As Chu Ci spoke, the Burning Sunflower Twins opened their eyes. Once they opened their eyes, the Burning Sunflower Twins kissed Chu Ci’s cheeks and sat down on her shoulder. Spirit qi professionals loved fairy source-type items because they were strong and much smarter than other source-type items once they had been contracted. From the Burning Sunflower Twins’ behavior and expression, their reputation was well-deserved. Sparks flew out continuously from the Burning Sunflower Twins’ hands, producing exploding noises. Lin Yuan noticed that the Burning Sunflower Twins had already started to imitate speech through observing his conversation with Chu Ci. Chu Ci could not love the Burning Sunflower Twins even more than she already did. Both the Burning Sunflower Twins’ original form and tiny human form looked lovely. The Burning Sunflower Twins had also learned how to imitate the wiles of female spirit qi professionals early on. “Take a seat there, Chu Ci. I’ll help you evolve your Burning Sunflower. It’ll make it easier for you to choose compatible exclusive skills for your combat system.” Chu Ci rushed to the side to wait so that she would not disturb Lin Yuan while he evolved the Burning Sunflower. Lin Yuan scratched the back of his head when he saw Chu Ci. Other Creation Masters did not like to be bothered, but Lin Yuan did not subscribe to that. Lin Yuan felt that Chu Ci had misunderstood what he meant. He was just afraid that Chu Ci would be bored while she waited for him. He intended for her to sit off to the side or introduce the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull to the Yellow Jadeite Golden Butterfly. Lin Yuan took a deep breath and started to evolve the Burning Sunflower Twins. A few short minutes later, the Burning Sunflower Twins evolved to Elite. Lin Yuan looked at the Burning Sunflower Twins’ Elite ability Heat Wave Conduction, a defense-type ability. It was a shield formed from high heat that defended against damage through the energy in the heat. It suited Chu Ci’s road to becoming a combat-class expert. Lin Yuan continued evolving the Burning Sunflower Twins until it became Elite/Epic. Lin Yuan increased the speed at which he injected spirit qi and evolved the Burning Sunflower Twins further to the Bronze grade. Lin Yuan realized that he was more nervous when evolving Chu Ci’s feys than when he evolved his own. He did not call Chu Ci over after evolving the Burning Sunflower to Bronze grade. Instead, he waited till he evolved it to Bronze X/Epic before calling her over. Chu Ci immediately ran to him. While he waited for Chu Ci to run over to him, Lin Yuan checked the Burning Sunflower’s three exclusive skills.
