Chapter 2739 Domain Mountain-Class!
Otherwise, there was no way for Lin Yuan's bloodline to improve to such a degree in such a short span of time in this world that lacked the mermaid bloodline!
The species that distinguished status based on bloodline did not have easily evolved bloodlines.
Currently, the only bloodline that Lin Yuan had absorbed was the mermaid bloodline.
When he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds and encountered other species, he would probably be able to absorb their bloodlines!
If the bloodline in Crimson's body had been pure, Spring would likely have hinted to Lin Yuan to try taking control of the Blood species' bloodline.
Normally, once a lifeform absorbed the bloodlines of more than two species, the two bloodlines would definitely clash in their body, creating an explosion that resulted in the death of that lifeform. It was impossible for a body to handle two bloodlines repelling each other.
However, Lin Yuan's Body of All Spirits could smoothly carry and absorb various bloodlines.
Not only would the bloodlines not clash against each other in his body, but they would even bolster each other and lead to links and positive reactions.
Hence, absorbing the bloodlines of multiple bloodlines in his body only had upsides for Lin Yuan!
The most impressive part of the Body of All Spirits was that Lin Yuan could use the bloodline as an energy source when he wanted to abandon the bloodline. He could sacrifice the bloodline for a similar one and help the new bloodline to evolve. As a result, his previous effort into nurturing the first bloodline would not go to waste.
Aside from being curious about the mermaid and Blood species' bloodlines, Lin Yuan was also curious about the Abyssal Beast bloodline Spring had mentioned.
Crimson had almost successfully ambushed him because he possessed the Abyssal Beast bloodline! If Spring and Summer had not stepped in in the nick of time to protect him, Lin Yuan could not say for certain how the battle would have ended.
"Spring, you recognized the Abyssal Beast bloodline in Crimson's body. What kind of level does the Abyssal Beast bloodline represent in the Sky Beyond the Clouds? How does it compare to the mermaid and Blood species' bloodline?"
Spring had already been anticipating this question from Lin Yuan.
The Abyssal Beast bloodline was multifaceted. In fact, it was much more complicated than the Βlood and mermaid bloodlines! However, it was extremely inferior.
Nonetheless, it would still take a long time before Lin Yuan's fey could evolve. Spring said seriously, "Lord Saint, do you remember I mentioned the endless abyss I mentioned exists outside of the Sky Beyond the Clouds? The Abyssal Beast is the general name for the lifeforms in the endless abyss that possess spatial abilities but don't belong to a specific species.
"Most of these lifeforms have tentacles and multiple eyes. Their bodies come in various shapes and sizes. The Abyssal Beast bloodline in Crimson's body is considered a very average one. Moreover, the share of Abyssal Beast bloodline in Crimson's body had been rather small. Otherwise, he would not have been able to keep up appearances as a member of the Blood species.
"There are many species that became terrifying and ferocious after the Abyssal Beast bloodline tainted their bloodlines. By comparison, Crimson had not inherited many of the Abyssal Beast bloodline's unique abilities. His speed of ambushing you wαs not even half as fast as that of World Emperor Abyssal Beasts when they warp space!
"Because of their strong abilities to warp space, the Abyssal Beasts are very common in all four universes of the Sky Beyond the Clouds. There are many powerful species and factions who train the Abyssal Beasts as pets or tame them for riding.
"The average Abyssal Beast is not worth much. One can easily purchase an Abyssal Beast as long as one is sufficiently strong. However, it is not easy to tame the Abyssal Beast. Subjugating one requires resources, and it is much more costly than just buying one. A few experts and members of factions like to train the Abyssal Beasts into pets and for riding as a form of showing off their resources and prestige.
"The Abyssal Beasts gather around the Sky Beyond the Clouds because they love energy like spirit qi and absorb all types of energy, including elemental energy, vitality, death aura, and even faith power. After absorbing them, the Abyssal Beasts' body will change accordingly! With the resources you possess, you can easily cultivate and breed the Abyssal Beasts."
Lin Yuan now fully understood the Abyssal Beasts.
If the Sky Beyond the Clouds was compared to the main world, the abyss around it was akin to the dimensional worlds around the main world.
After listening to Spring's introduction of the Sky Beyond the Clouds' various species, his yearning to head there became even stronger.
Once he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, there was no way that Lin Yuan would sell foundational resources like spirit qi crystals and elemental energy. Lin Yuan needed them to create a production chain that would provide him with a never-ending supply of resources.
Lin Yuan could nurture the Abyssal Beasts as a business. However, he could only come up with the details after he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds and observed the situation on the ground.
After her explanation, Spring noticed Lin Yuan looked like he had more to say. She hurriedly said, "Lord Saint, if you want to hear about Sky Beyond the Clouds, I can tell you all about it. The Sky Beyond the Clouds is a place where all species fight for dominance. However, the strength of the species is not determined based on the Species Ranking because the Species Alliance draws up the ranking.
"The Species Alliance is unaware of many existing species. For example, the faeries did not join the Species Alliance of late, but they are still considered one of the top ten species based on their previous achievements.
"The Blood species likes to fight and always prepares seriously for the Species Alliance. Hence, their ranking might be higher than what their true power reflects.
"Although the faeries don't like to fight, they won't allow other factions to overtake them on the Species Ranking. Hence, they don't neglect their performance on the Species Alliance either.
"Before I came to this Class 1 world, I heard that the dominant factions of the four universes intend to deploy their individual species into the Species Alliance. I don't exactly know how this plan will be carried out. But if this plan is successful, the Species Alliance's influence will surpass that of other alliances and become the most influential alliance in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. The competition within the Species Ranking will intensify and be seen as the standard!"
She had spent far too much time hidden in this world. Hence, Spring could only use her general impression to describe the circumstances of the Sky Beyond the Clouds. It was possible that her explanation significantly deviated from the actual circumstances!
Lin Yuan was aware of this. However, a rough understanding was understanding nonetheless.
Spring's words solidified his resolution to head to the Sky Beyond the Clouds and run wild.
While Spring and Lin Yuan conversed, Green Vine continued increasing its power.
Spring was not overly amazed by Green Vine's extraordinary nature.
All she felt was that Green Vine was very lucky.
Green Vine only had such achievements because it just happened to fall into Lin Yuan's hands, and Lin Yuan just happened to be willing to provide it with resources. If it had fallen into anyone else's hands or had to grow in the wild, there was no way it would have achieved such transformations!
A lifeform like this that required more resources than other lifeforms was not a reasonable existence to begin with.
Moreover, the faerie bloodline, metals, and Divine Retribution Ashes Scale Snake's secret treasures were entities that no one else in this world would be able to provide Green Vine!
By remaining by Lin Yuan's side, Green Vine had outstanding achievements in its future! It would likely become famous throughout the Sky Beyond the Clouds!
Spring spent two days patiently describing and painting a picture of the Sky Beyond the Clouds for Lin Yuan. As a result, despite never having been to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, Lin Yuan now had the knowledge of a frequent visitor!
At that moment, Spring sensed Green Vine's aura and said seriously, "Lord Saint, your fey will be able to evolve to World Emperor/Divine Kingdom very soon! Once a lifeform reaches this level, it will undergo a reincarnation into a new life. So, no matter what happens, you don't have to be worried. I will be here to step in and help if necessary!
"This abyss demon you sent out has already reached World Emperor grade. Since it's a lifeform from a Class 1 world's dimensional world, it won't be able to develop a divine kingdom. It won't be able to properly protect this fey!"
Spring enjoyed staying by Lin Yuan's side and was willing to work for him. Now, she finally had a chance to offer him help.
If the Abyss Great Emperor could protect Green Vine, Spring would never dare to suggest carrying out tasks for Lin Yuan. This was because it would be the equivalent of trying to flatter and butter him up. Followers like her were prohibited from such actions!
Lin Yuan gasped to himself, thinking he had taken too large of a bite.
He had been under the impression that the Abyss Great Emperor, a World Emperor Afterlife Realm Dictator, would be able to protect Green Vine when it evolved. But it turned out that he was not capable of doing so!
Lin Yuan could enable Green Vine to evolve so smoothly because of Entire Body Medium. Additionally, it was also because he had Spring by his side.
Lin Yuan was certain that Spring would not stand by and watch Green Vine fall into danger.
Regardless of what happened today, Green Vine was going to evolve.
Lin Yuan gave half of his accumulated resources to Green Vine. He was well aware of its spirit qi needs because he took stock of all the resource needs of his feys.
Green Vine waved its vines around as it absorbed the spirit qi.
Each breath of spirit qi Green Vine absorbed caused its aura to intensify significantly. This meant that it was difficult for Green Vine's body to absorb more energy.
All the energy that Green Vine absorbed was presented through its appearance.
Just as Spring had said, Green Vine's time to evolve was there!
Lin Yuan sensed that the Eternal Heart in Green Vine had been ignited. This was not because it had been set aflame by an external attack but was a self-combustion.
It was not just Green Vine's Eternal Heart that had been ignited. The emerald green spirit fire that had been forming in Green Vine over the last day was also slowly being burned. This was a sign that a spirit-fire lifeform was about to die.
If Spring had not given Lin Yuan a heads-up, Lin Yuan would be worried about Green Vine's situation. But since Spring had mentioned that Green Vine would need to experience a reincarnation into a new life before it could reach World Emperor/Divine Kingdom, Lin Yuan laid his worries to rest.
Lin Yuan would be an eyewitness to Green Vine's transformation!
It could be said that Lin Yuan was the one who had created Green Vine's transformation!
After Green Vine evolved to World Emperor/Divine Kingdom, many of Lin Yuan's doubts would be dispelled!
Lin Yuan only had a general idea of the divine kingdom.
Lin Yuan confirmed that the shrine in his soul was a divine kingdom when he used True Data.
However, based on the definition of human spirit qi professional ranks, he was an A-rank spirit qi professional.
He had not even become an A-rank spirit qi professional when he obtained his divine kingdom.
This was all very confusing for Lin Yuan.
Once Green Vine gained its divine kingdom, Lin Yuan would see if there were any differences between his own divine kingdom and that of Green Vine despite still being unsure of how he gained his own divine kingdom.
Lin Yuan could sense the agony that Green Vine was in.
The burning of its Eternal Heart and spirit fire caused Green Vine to become extremely weak.
But just like waxed and waned plants, they would eventually explode with shocking vitality.
Spring gasped to herself as she watched Green Vine.
Green Vine was truly born with a golden spoon in its mouth!
Ever since he began nurturing Green Vine, Lin Yuan only provided it with the best resources.
Other feys at the gate of World Emperor/Divine Kingdom would not experience their Eternal Heart burning for this long, and their spirit fire would have already been burned away.
It was unlikely that any other lifeform in this world had evolved to this level.
In the words of the Sky Beyond the Clouds, this level was called the 'Spirit Master's Nirvana'. After this transformation, the spirit master's body would create a miniature divine kingdom. The divine kingdom would become the core of its body's energy, and its energy would transform!
Once the divine kingdom was created, it would be able to receive and absorb faith from other experts.
Only experts who had reached the Divine Kingdom level would be able to destroy the soul of such an expert, as the divine kingdom would protect their soul and spiritual energy during combat.
The development of the divine kingdom would even bring benefits to divine-kingdom experts.
Compared to the divine kingdom, which was broken into detailed categories, the World Emperor grade was just a general concept.
Only divine-kingdom experts were able to reach the World Emperor grade, so they were designated into smaller categories.
In the Sky Beyond the Clouds, they were called domain mountain-class experts.
Presently, there were less than 30 living domain mountain-class experts in the entire Sky Beyond the Clouds!
