Chapter 273: Mountain Forest Dragon! The Astonishing Phoenix Heart!

Chapter 273: Mountain Forest Dragon! The Astonishing Phoenix Heart!

Guan Qianshan shook his head helplessly as he watched Su Ping ride off in a hurry.

In just over half a year, the changes in Su Ping and Mu Zhixin were truly remarkable.

However, these changes were undoubtedly positive.

Although there were still many trials and troubles ahead, Su Ping believed that with this young master around, Mu Zhixin's future would only get better.

With this in mind, Guan Qianshan headed towards the area near the Water Heart, a place rumored to have a unique magnetic field.

Su Ping didn't pay any attention to Guan Qianshan's enthusiasm and was already riding Lao Sha towards that direction.

Dahuang had evolved.

While this was an expected outcome, Zhu Hong, as a Master Breeder, had been fully dedicated during this time, and with ample resources, his evolution was a natural progression.

However, when Su Ping heard the news, he quickly ended his conversation with Guan Qianshan and headed to a vast wasteland south of the Heart of the Forest.

This wasteland was connected to the desolate mountain of the Heart of the Forest.

At that moment, both Dahuang and Master Zhu Hong were in this wilderness.

Master Zhu Hong stood there, while Dahuang, who should have been standing in front of him, was enveloped in a light of evolution, all its body covered, and countless energy was gathered within.

The light of evolution had already begun.

Su Ping quickly dismounted from the rushing Lao Sha and asked, "Master Zhu, has the evolution started? How long has it been?"

Master Zhu Hong nodded and kept his gaze on Dahuang, who was covered in the light of evolution, "About thirty minutes, probably another hour or so."

There was still some time, and Su Ping breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He glanced at the light of evolution surrounding Dahuang and said, "Master Zhu, after this evolution, will you be promoted to a Saint Spirit Beastmaster?"

Su Ping congratulated him with a smile.

A hint of a smile appeared on Zhu Hong's lips, "Not necessarily. After reaching the Sovereign level, every realm advancement becomes relatively more challenging, and it's even more so for the Saint Spirit level. This time, thanks to you, Dahuang's evolution is different from my original plans, but with the inspiration from the Five Elements Origami Man, Dahuang's promotion should be no problem.

However, I, as a Beastmaster, may need some time to digest this. But within a year, I'm confident I'll achieve it!"

"With a Master Breeder and a Saint Spirit Beastmaster, if you take over the position at the Breeder's Association, you'll have to look out for me in the future!" Su Ping said half-jokingly.

Master Zhu Hong's response was simple; he waved his hand dismissively, "Get lost! If you have any research directions, come to me directly. It'll be smoother and more convenient.

The reverse evolution project you and that kid from the Magic Capital Academy are working on is quite impressive. And the topic you mentioned last time about pet beast devolution is also very valuable and meaningful..."

"..."

In a certain sense, the two of them were indeed 'kindred spirits'. Both were exceptional figures in the breeding industry, one with an external advantage and ideas, and the other with resources and experience.

When they discussed various matters, they often found themselves with new insights and perspectives.

Su Ping had reason to suspect that Master Zhu Hong might have called him over because he was waiting for Dahuang's evolution to complete and was simply too bored.

An hour passed as they chatted.

Su Ping didn't hold back and shared the idea he had previously mentioned to Ye Zhou.

In ancient times, there was a possibility of pet beasts devolving through reverse evolution due to the difference in energy between ancient times and the present.

This idea was acknowledged by Master Zhu Hong, and in fact, someone had proposed this possibility before, but without any supporting evidence.

Unless one could go back thousands of years and witness the difference between the energy of that era and the modern era, it would remain just a speculation and hypothesis.

As the hour passed, the light of evolution on Dahuang's body gradually faded.

The dimming light of evolution caught their attention, and they looked up at Dahuang, who was still enveloped in the glowing light.

"Roar!"

A powerful dragon's roar reverberated throughout the heavens and earth.

Su Ping was slightly startled by the sound and squinted his eyes, looking at the dragon that had broken free from the light of evolution. At that moment, Dahuang was vastly different from the dragon-like creature made of stacked rocks.

Before, Dahuang's body was rough and rugged, like a granite body and scales, all in a brownish-yellow hue.

Now, amidst the yellow, there were hints of emerald green. At first glance, if it were coiled on the ground, one would not be able to distinguish it as a winding dragon, but it would perfectly blend into the natural environment.

It was quite deceptive.

"This is..."

Without a second thought, Su Ping activated his True Eye and looked at Dahuang, who was soaring and circling in the mountain sky.

Dahuang could easily resist this probing with no force behind it.

But when he saw that it was this little ancestor, Dahuang didn't resist.

Excitedly, it circled in the air once before slowly descending in front of the two.

It was full of vigor and vitality.

The specific details of this creature also appeared before Su Ping's eyes:

【Mountain Forest Dragon (Contracted - Other)】

【Attributes: Dragon, Earth, Wood】

【Current Realm: Saint Spirit Tier 1】

【Racial Potential: Saint Spirit Tier 9】

【Skills: Unable to View】

Similar to the Mechanical Titan, but with a significant difference in realm, even if the opponent was not on guard, Ping would be unable to discern its specific skills through the True Eye.

However, this name alone was enough to prove that Master Zhu's research should be considered a success!

Forest Dragon! Ping had never heard of it before.

Obviously, the pinnacle of the Earth and Wood attributes had brought about a qualitative improvement and leap in Dahuang's abilities.

But before Ping could fully appreciate the changes in Dahuang's appearance, Master Zhu had already taken a good look at Dahuang and said with satisfaction:

"Dahuang, are you ready for the task I gave you earlier?"

"Roar!"

Ping was startled, but Master Zhu had already taken something out of his hand.

It was a peculiar little box.

Inside the box was a piece of earth the size of a fingernail,

Yes, it was just an ordinary yellow piece of earth.

From the outside, there was not a hint of change or difference.

The only notable thing was that this object, like the Stone of Creation, had a sprig of grass growing on it.

Master Zhu turned to Ping:

"Kid, have you thought about the base for breeding bird-type pets that I asked you to prepare?"

Ping finally realized that Master Zhu had promised to personally help Dahuang create the bird-type base after his evolution.

Could it be that they were about to start now?

He nodded hurriedly:

"I've thought about it, let's call it Phoenix Heart!"

It was that matter.

The sight of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix had left Ping in awe.

It reminded him of the flame phoenix.

If the focus was on birds, Phoenix Heart would be Ping's top choice.

Master Zhu nodded and smiled, handing the little piece of earth and grass from the box to Dahuang:

"Go!"

Dahuang gently grabbed the object, and in a flash, he was gone.

He went straight to the hundred-bird Chinese Parasol tree.

Countless birds, including Ya Ya, shrank in fear.

Even without Dahuang releasing his dragon aura, his very presence was enough to strike fear into any pet.

This was a true dragon.

Dahuang glanced at them with disdain, not understanding why his master would give him such a precious resource, even if it was just some leftover scraps. Couldn't it be used as a snack? But it was his master's task.

He placed it on the palm-shaped cliff that stretched out from the heart of the forest.

The next moment, brown-yellow energy mixed with indigo blue erupted.

The small piece of earth that had merged with the cliff began to grow at an unimaginable speed, as if it were a living thing, spreading and growing.

In just a few breaths, the cliff's rocks, covered in grass and wood, spread out for dozens of meters.

The previously extended palm now transformed into a long arm, and this arm continued to spread.

"Roar!"

After spreading out for about a hundred meters, the mountain stopped spreading horizontally and instead extended downwards, connecting with the earth.

But the mountain, wrapped in grass and wood, looked like a giant tree, connected to the earth.

And this was not the end.

Dahuang's promotion to the Saint Spirit Tier had given him an endless supply of energy.

Under this energy, the first branch that spread out hung for dozens of meters, connecting with the earth. After that, the grass and rocks above continued to spread.

Soon, the branch that connected with the earth formed a huge tree, a hundred meters away from the Chinese Parasol tree and the palm-shaped cliff.

Above, the tree's canopy was layered, with a radius of a hundred meters.

The mountain rocks and branches continued to spread upwards, wrapping around countless rocks and grass, forming layer upon layer of mountain forest pavilions! The entire area where the cliff spread out looked like a giant, continuous tree city, except for the pillar-like root that connected with the earth.

How was this possible?

But just as Ping thought it was over.

Dahuang's energy continued to surge, not stopping.

Two more giant trees, almost identical to the first, formed slowly around the original one, their bases of mountain rocks, covered in grass and wood.

Connecting with the first tree, they formed a triangle with the palm-shaped cliff that stretched out from the heart of the forest.

A mountain forest fortress in the sky! A tree city spreading out!

These were the words that came to Ping's mind as he witnessed this scene.

Three mountain-like pillars rose from the earth, forming a colossal mountain tree.

And from the spreading cliff, branches and vines wrapped in grass and wood.

From a distance, it looked like a world and city made of trees, floating in the air.

Finally, with a dragon's roar, the prototype of Phoenix Heart was complete!

Ping stood in awe, and Dahuang, satisfied, let out a loud roar. Though Dahuang had just finished evolving, seeing the shocked expression on this smelly kid's face was worth it.

Su Ping was truly shocked.

Is this the true ability of a Holy Spirit-rank pet beast?

What is this? Artificial mountain-making?

No, it's far more challenging than simply piling up soil and rocks to create a mountain.

Creation is far more difficult than destruction.

Such creation is truly mind-boggling.

Seemingly sensing Su Ping's astonishment, Zhu Hong, who was standing beside him, burst into laughter, "Don't be surprised. Aside from the power of the Great Yellow, the main reason is that small piece of Grass Vitality Soil. Otherwise, even if this thing can be built, it will collapse in the future due to a lack of energy to sustain it!"

"Grass Vitality Soil?"

Su Ping blinked.

"Yes, the Holy Spirit-rank Wood and Earth dual-system treasure. It's also the main resource material used in the Great Yellow's evolution, aside from dragon blood. I left you with a corner piece, but even if it's just a corner piece, a treasure of this grade won't cause you any trouble."

Vitality Soil, as long as there's enough energy, can continuously provide an endless supply of soil and rocks, and at the same time, it's connected to the earth's veins. Compared to a mountain peak, this thing seems extremely thin, but in fact, the support of this ridge is such that even the attacks of ordinary Emperor-rank pets cannot damage it.

Even if it's damaged, the 'Phoenix Heart' above won't be affected. Unless all three roots are broken together, even if one root is broken, it will automatically repair itself in a short time! As for the derived trees above, you can trim and arrange them to create whatever you desire, and then use energy to shape it.

For example, you can make corridors, fences, or even swings. As I said before, birds love forest environments, and some pets also prefer such environments. The higher the forest, the more birds will like it, as it gives them a greater sense of security. How about it, are you satisfied?"

Satisfied!

More than satisfied.

Even if Su Ping's brain were to smoke, he couldn't have imagined that the Phoenix Heart would appear in such a form.

Goodness, the corner piece of a Holy Spirit-rank resource material, along with the personal creation by the current Mountain Forest Dragon, the Great Yellow, this Phoenix Heart is indeed a bit of a luxury for Su Ping's current low-level birds.

But this effect is truly satisfying!

Su Ping couldn't wait to rush to the Tree Cliff of the Phoenix Heart to see the magnificent scenery of this tree city supported by rocks and trees.

The magnetic field near the Water Heart.

Guan Qianshan, wearing an engineering hat, watched as the investigators held instruments in their hands,

and pets like 'Drill Mole' and 'Spiny Mountain Armor' emerged from the holes in the ground, comparing data with the staff,

the female designer beside him smiled and said, "Su Breeder is really bold. In the entire Linzhou, even in Jianghai, there's probably no one else with such boldness to transform Dongjiao into such a desolate place."

"Hehe, it's also the credit of White Designer." Guan Qianshan smiled.

"I just followed Su Breeder and Holy Spirit Heart to drink soup here. It's also Su Breeder's credit."

The female designer with the same surname, White, quickly waved her hands, and then her eyes flashed, saying,

"Since Su Breeder already has such means, why didn't you just say it directly?"

Guan Qianshan glanced at her but shook his head with a serious expression, "No one knows Su Ping's thoughts, but a few days ago, Su Ping asked me about naming the bird pet breeding base. It's estimated that his focus and main effort will be in this aspect in the future!"

"Oh?"

The female designer's eyes lit up.

"However, it seems he already has an idea, and it doesn't seem like he intends to ask you to do it."

Although Su Ping was satisfied with the previous Soul Heart, Guan Qianshan was also unsure about the Phoenix Heart.

"Hehe, Manager Guan, you may not know that our studio specializes in designing various environments and cages for birds..."

Guan Qianshan opened his mouth, but before he could speak, a dragon's roar sounded in the distance.

Then, accompanied by a booming sound.

The two looked incredulously at the high sky in the distance.

From the corner of the small mountain, it quickly spread, and in a short time, a forest fortress was born, supported by a tree city.

"What is this..."

In this area, countless staff members witnessed the birth of this, and they exclaimed in surprise.

The female designer, White, standing beside them, suddenly understood and exclaimed in awe and helplessness,

"No wonder, Manager Guan, you too. It turns out Su Breeder already has such means. You could've just said it directly."

Guan Qianshan blinked, looking at the suspended forest that had formed in a short time, like a small mountain, he didn't understand.

What is that?

Didn't this kid say that he hadn't thought about the floating city yet? Did he just not think about it for those few days? Of course, in a sense, this thing can't be considered a floating city that is completely suspended in the air,

but this forest-supported floating city is also not inferior.
