Chapter 516: The Insect Queen’s Metamorphosis and the Two Sacred Source Lifeforms
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia nectar entered the Insect Queen’s body, Lin Yuan took out a spirit qi crystal without hesitation and crushed it in his hand.
What the Insect Queen needed most for its recovery was not vitality but rather an enormous amount of pure spirit qi.
The Insect Queen would start to heal itself after it absorbed the pure spirit qi.
Being a Platinum/Fantasy Breed source-type lifeform, the Insect Queen had strong recovery capabilities.
Moreover, with a treasure like the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia nectar, it would be child’s play to expel the purplish-gray poison.
However, Lin Yuan frowned deeply at what happened next.
Instead of the purplish-gray poison being expelled in the form of a thick substance flowing out of the holes, like what had happened to Liu Jie, the Insect Queen absorbed the purplish-gray poison along with the enormous amount of spirit qi.
Before Lin Yuan could react, the Insect Queen’s purple flesh cocoon suddenly squirted out a large volume of gummy insect protein.
After being expelled, the insect protein changed from transparent to creamy white.
The creamy white insect protein started to harden, sealing the Insect Queen inside.
Lin Yuan immediately used Morbius’ True Data to check on the Insect Queen.
He found that the Insect Queen was undergoing metamorphosis.
Lin Yuan sighed. “Could the Insect Queen’s metamorphosis have something to do with the Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia nectar?”
The Silver Stamen Gold Luster Cassia nectar was used to purge impurities and repair damaged roots. It was not supposed to trigger metamorphosis.
Thus, the Insect Queen’s sudden metamorphosis had to be linked to the purplish-gray poison.
Besides being unable to battle on the water, Liu Jie’s mastery over using the Insect Queen’s abilities had grown into a near-perfect fighting combination on land.
Hence, the Insect Queen’s abrupt metamorphosis might not be a positive change.
Who could say how Liu Jie’s fighting style would change after the Insect Queen’s transformation?
Liu Jie was the kind of spirit qi professional that prioritized directing an insect army on the battlefield and adjusted the insect types accordingly.
He had a set fighting style.
Unlike other spirit qi professionals, Liu Jie did not have many feys. He only had the Insect Queen.
The slightest change to the Insect Queen could have untold impacts on Liu Jie.
Lin Yuan could only rely on himself to treat the Insect Queen, and he could not predict what kind of changes would occur as a result of his methods.
Whether this would be a blessing or a curse, it depended on Liu Jie’s fate!
At that moment, Lin Yuan heard something akin to a mirror-shattering sound.
Lin Yuan dashed at the evolving dimensional hub.
Soon, another twist took place as Lin Yuan ran toward the dimensional hub.
The waterfall of moonbeams in the sky could sense Lin Yuan’s aura and did not make a move against Zhou Luo or Liu Jie.
The shell blanketing the mass of rainbow light at the dimensional hub was illuminated by the moonlight and disintegrated.
Without the shell, the mass of rainbow light at the dimensional hub emitted a rainbow glow.
Lin Yuan suddenly realized that the dimensional rift that was supposed to only finish evolving in ten minutes had been torn open.
Another glowing rainbow mass fell from the torn open dimensional rift.
Lin Yuan’s expression changed completely. It struck him what the glowing rainbow mass was.
The glowing rainbow mass, whose identity had Liu Jie been speculating all this time, was the legendary sacred source lifeform.
Lin Yuan never expected the Extreme Token that the Moon Empress had gifted him would be of aid at such a crucial moment.
The moonlight might have mostly quenched the dimensional hub’s spatial fluctuations, but the dimensional rift was still being torn wider under the rainbow glow of the two sacred source lifeforms.
Lin Yuan seemed to catch a glimpse of a seemingly endless water world through the rift.
Lin Yuan could also feel the intensely powerful aura surging out of the water world.
The boundless ocean water was pouring out of the water world.
At this moment, the majestic moonlight beamed down as though it was headed for a target.
The moonlight and water crashed together, and the moonlight utterly sublimed the water.
The moment the moonlight sublimed the water, Lin Yuan felt the energy in the Extreme Token hanging on his chest deplete.
Lin Yuan finally witnessed his Master’s true power.
The Moon Empress’s moonlight domain was currently combating the entire Class 5 dimensional rift and immediately sublimating any of the powerful energy flowing out of the dimensional rift. Not even one drop of water managed to land on the gravel by Lin Yuan’s feet.
Lin Yuan stuck his arm into the dimensional hub without a second thought.
He was going to stop the dimensional rift’s evolution!
Zhou Luo and Liu Jie risked their lives for me to be here! All I can do now is to stand straight and make use of the window opened for me that is the sublimating waters.
Before the energy in the Extreme Token was completely gone, he needed to remove the two sacred source lifeforms.
Despite the moonlight suppressing the dimensional hub’s energy, Lin Yuan’s hand immediately desiccated when it entered the dimensional hub.
Lin Yuan had anticipated this, but the excruciating pain of his mangled arm had turned to numbness, to the point that Lin Yuan did not immediately feel the pain.
Lin Yuan ground his teeth as he fought through the pain—the grinding of his jaw was so loud that it sounded as though Lin Yuan’s teeth were about to break.
His fingers were connected to his heart, as were his palms, wrist, and forearm.
The spatial energy in the dimensional hub was like sticky mud. Even if Lin Yuan exerted all his strength, his arm could only inch forward.
Suddenly, Lin Yuan shouted, “Bud of Mountain Jade, Heal!”
Lin Yuan pumped the remaining spirit qi in the Spirit Qi Imprint into the Jasmine Lily.
It was not because Lin Yuan was afraid of being seriously hurt and was trying to heal himself. He was afraid that his bones would break and prevent him from retrieving the two sacred source lifeforms.
If that happened, all his effort would go down the drain.
The sand was whipping around!
The moon hung high in the sky!
The torrents of water were surging!
The moonlight was youthful and stained with a blood-red glow.
The youth’s arm started to reveal bone, but his gaze remained steadfast as his arm continued to stretch out toward the two glowing rainbow sacred source lifeforms.
