Chapter 314: Green Demon Wolf Spirit! Evolution Complete!
Chapter 314: Green Demon Wolf Spirit! Evolution Complete!
"Hmm? You're here?"
Su Ping picked up the call and before Dong Muchun could speak, he eagerly asked, "Of course, I'll be right there. I'm at the Heart of Wood entrance with my grandpa!"
"Okay, you and your senior wait a moment. I'll come to pick you up."
After hanging up the phone and informing Green Demon Spring Ginseng, she didn't seem to mind. Her body then transformed into an ordinary tree root and placed herself on the table, but she had no intention of leaving. It was obvious that she needed to keep a close eye on Xiao Qing's evolution.
Although Su Ping didn't want to leave either, Xiao Qing's evolution light had just lit up, and it would probably take some time before the evolution could be completed.
If Dong Muchun had come by herself, it would be fine, as there was still the senior from the Dong family. It would be impolite not to greet them.
Moreover, Dong Muchun had brought along the Mirror Saint of the Dong family!
Su Ping had never seen a Spirit Level tool-type pet at the Saint level before.
It was impossible not to be curious about it.
Tool-type pets were not uncommon, such as the Rotten Sword that Su Ping had the most contact with. However, it was extremely rare to see one that had been raised to a high level.
Perhaps this was why the Dong family had suffered a setback before, but the Mirror Saint had always stayed. The birth and growth of this thing were indeed precious.
"This is my grandpa, and also the current head of the Dong family, Dong Lingxuan. Grandpa, this is Su Ping."
Although Dong Muchun had some disagreements with her family before, she didn't show any signs of it at this moment. Or perhaps, the internal affairs of a large family were inherently complex.
This was a typical old man with a dignified demeanor and neatly combed white hair.
One look was enough to know that this was definitely a strict old man.
"Hello, Senior Dong, I've heard a lot about you!"
Speaking of which, the Dong family had wanted to contact him several times before, but he hadn't responded, and now he had finally met the person in question.
Su Ping extended his hand, and the old man's stern expression disappeared instantly, replaced by a smile, looking kind and amiable: "Hehe, it's me who has heard a lot about you. Before, Muchun told me about you. In our Jianghai Linzhou, an extraordinary talent has emerged. I've been wanting to see what kind of young genius could earn such high praise from Muchun."
"I'm afraid you've seen it on TV first..."
"It's not embarrassing, it's just that we old folks are ashamed..."
The two engaged in mutual flattery, appearing quite friendly. Regardless of Su Ping's thoughts about the Dong family, his social skills were impeccable.
The Dong family head in front of him was even more so.
Dong Muchun didn't find it strange at all.
She had rarely seen her grandpa smile so brightly since she was young.
Especially when it came to younger generations like herself.
However, the Su Ping in front of her could not be regarded as a junior.
Once one's strength increased, everyone around them would be nice.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Su Ping got straight to the point:
"Senior Dong, about the Mirror Saint..."
"I'm here!"
A crisp and coquettish voice rang out, causing Su Ping to blink in surprise.
In the next moment, above the head of the old man in front of him, a small object slowly materialized in the air.
It was a palm-sized mirror.
The silver frame seemed to devour space, and beneath the mirror, a red tassel hung down, adding a touch of nobility to the mirror.
Everything about this mirror matched Su Ping's imagination of the Mirror of the Heavens.
Except for the face that appeared in the mirror, which left Su Ping a little stunned.
It was a standard anime-style girl's face, appearing on this peculiar mirror, giving Su Ping a sense of surrealism as if he were looking at his phone.
"This..."
Su Ping blinked, and at first, he couldn't quite believe that this was the legendary Mirror of the Heavens that had reached the Saint level, a rare Spirit Level tool-type pet.
"Huh? From your expression, it seems like you don't like this face?"
The anime-style girl in the mirror tilted her head and looked at Su Ping strangely through the mirror, then scanned him up and down and continued, "With your status and position, there should be many outstanding human girls who like you, right? But you're still single. According to my guess, you probably like anime girls, right?"
"..."
Su Ping's forehead creased with black lines. What was all this nonsense?
Was this the legendary Mirror of the Heavens at the Saint level?
Why did it seem so out of place?
Even the Dong family elder beside him felt a little embarrassed:
"Senior Mirror Ancestor, Su Ping has achieved so much at such a young age because he has dedicated all his heart and soul to pet cultivation."
"Oh, that's right. A workaholic single, right?"
The girl in the mirror nodded, looking enlightened.
Su Ping pursed his lips and decided to ignore this broken mirror.
It wasn't worth arguing with a mirror, was it? After all, he still needed its help later.
Of course, he would never admit that it was because he couldn't beat this broken mirror no matter what.
(End of Chapter 314)
Dong Muchun, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but smile slightly. She had always understood the temperament of the Mirror Ancestor, but at this moment, she spoke up, "Su Ping, has your pet completed its evolution? What exactly do you need the Mirror Ancestor's help for?"
Su Ping nodded and said, "Follow me, seniors!"
They returned to the medical room.
Through the glass barrier that blocked circulation, the three of them finally saw the pet's silhouette within, enveloped in the green evolution radiance.
"This is..."
"This is my pet, Xiao Qing! It has entered the evolution state. What I want the Mirror Saint to help with is, after Xiao Qing completes her evolution, for the Mirror Saint to use his own ability and the Multiverse Reflection Mirror to create three complete physical clones of Xiao Qing, lasting for over two hours!"
Su Ping stated his request and then smiled, saying, "If the Mirror Saint needs my help in the future, I will definitely not refuse!"
Su Ping hadn't intended to take advantage, after all, it was already quite challenging to get someone of this caliber to help.
Even with Su Ping's connections, it would be troublesome to mobilize a specific pet to aid in his evolution.
Now that the Dong family was in a favorable position, Su Ping wouldn't really take advantage.
However, neither side elaborated further on this matter.
"A clone created after evolution? Su Ping, are you trying to cultivate a cloning skill?" The elder beside him smiled slightly, directly exposing Su Ping's intentions, causing Su Ping to be slightly taken aback.
"You know?"
"Haha, my Dong family is a lineage of Mirror Saints. For the cultivation of cloning skills, most require the assistance of reflective mirror-type pets. I've helped with this many times.
If you had told me earlier, there would be no need for the Mirror Ancestor to personally intervene. My reflective mirror can also achieve the same effect!"
The Dong family patriarch smiled and said.
Su Ping scratched his head, "Well, the clone skill I want to cultivate is a bit unusual. Moreover, Xiao Qing's evolution is different from that of an ordinary forest wolf. So, upon hearing that there's a Mirror Saint in the Dong family, I immediately thought of the Mirror Saint! And, to be honest, even if the Mirror Saint comes, I'm not sure if they can complete the reflection!"
Su Ping wasn't deliberately belittling the Mirror Saint. In normal circumstances, there would be no problem. However, if Xiao Qing were to use the Green Demon Ginseng to complete her breakthrough evolution and acquire some legendary features, it would be uncertain whether the Multiverse Reflection Mirror at the Spirit Level could successfully create a reflection.
Upon hearing this, both Su Ping and the Mirror Ancestor in the room were slightly taken aback.
Especially the 2D beauty in the Multiverse Reflection Mirror, who crossed her arms and looked at Su Ping with disdain, "A mere single dog dares to be so boastful!"
Can we please not bring up this topic again?
Su Ping glanced at the broken mirror with exasperation.
The elder also said, "Su Ping, the Mirror Ancestor is a Spirit Level Multiverse Reflection Mirror. As long as the grade of the creature doesn't exceed the Spirit Level, the Mirror Ancestor can create a reflection. Even for Spirit Level creatures, the Mirror Ancestor can still reflect them! Moreover, most skill strengths can be perfectly maintained!"
As the Dong family's patriarch, the elder seemed very confident in the Mirror Ancestor's combat power.
Su Ping nodded, "Of course, I'm not doubting the Mirror Saint. It's just that this is my first time attempting to cultivate this skill!"
"It's normal for a single dog to be unaware of my abilities!"
The pink-haired twin-tailed 2D beauty continued to cross her arms and turned her head away, acting coy.
Su Ping remained silent.
Indeed, even after pets reach the Spirit Level, their personalities can differ. Just look at the Snake Ancestor of the Rong family!
Although he seemed a bit unreliable, he was truly like an ancient and trustworthy guardian of the family.
Now, look at this unreliable broken mirror.
Indeed, there was a reason why the Dong family had declined.
They didn't elaborate further on this matter.
The Dong elder was extremely talkative and knowledgeable about many aspects, especially when it came to research on space-attributed pets.
Compared to Dong Muchuan, Dong Lingxuan had resolved many of Su Ping's doubts about space.
For example, the teleportation array that Su Ping had been most concerned about.
Teleportation arrays did exist.
After all, the Legion had used them before.
However, establishing a teleportation array was extremely challenging. It required a weak space area, such as the remnant boundary that had appeared for no more than a few years.
The Heart of All Souls could meet this condition.
Additionally, it required an extremely rare Emperor-ranked space resource called 'Little Wormhole Stone,' which was said to only be produced in special boundaries and the starry sky above Blue Star. Although its rank was only Emperor, it was quite rare.
Furthermore, space-attributed pets were needed to stabilize the channel at regular intervals.
Moreover, the distance of the space teleportation array couldn't be too far.
Due to these reasons, the teleportation array couldn't be realized in a short time, leaving Su Ping to sigh in disappointment.
And during this time, as Su Ping chatted idly, his gaze never left the isolation medical room. There, within the giant cocoon enveloped in green light, the radiance gradually dimmed and thinned.
At that moment, the entire medical room fell silent, as if all sound had been sucked out of the air. Even Thousand One and Little Flame, who had just arrived, were staring intently at the isolation glass, their eyes fixed on the creature that was about to complete its Evolution.
Su Ping's heart was racing, and he had a bad feeling. Although the Soul Contract indicated that Little Qing's soul was stable and not weak, Su Ping couldn't shake off the feeling of unease.
During the Evolution process, Su Ping had been carefully sensing the situation, and he noticed that something was off. Compared to Thousand One's previous Evolution, Little Qing's Evolution was missing a crucial aspect.
Su Ping's realm had not improved or fluctuated at all! This was the main reason for his anxiety.
Why did every Beastmaster care so much about their pets' Evolution? It was because the pet and the Beastmaster were bound by a Soul Contract, and their improvements were interconnected. When a Beastmaster's realm improved, their pet would also improve, and vice versa.
Especially during Evolution, pets could often leap across multiple realms. The last time Thousand One evolved, Su Ping's realm had also improved significantly.
However, this time, from the start of the Evolution to its imminent completion, Su Ping's spiritual realm had not reacted or fluctuated at all. There was no feedback from the Soul Contract, no indication that the Evolution was complete.
Was something wrong? Had the Evolution failed? Su Ping's anxiety grew, and he stared intently at the medical room.
It seemed that everyone had noticed Su Ping's tension, and the room fell silent, with even the usually chatty Multiverse Reflection Mirror remaining quiet.
Finally, as everyone watched, the Evolution light that had formed a cocoon around Little Qing began to fade, and cracks appeared on its surface. The cocoon turned white and then transparent, revealing a shadowy figure inside.
However, there was no sound, no movement, just a motionless, blue-green shadow that seemed to be still asleep.
What was going on? Su Ping's heart sank. The Evolution light had disappeared, and Little Qing should have reacted by now, whether the Evolution was successful or not. But Little Qing's body was still surrounded by a faint, pulsing light, making it hard to discern any details.
Su Ping's eyes narrowed, and he used his True Eye and the Soul Contract to sense Little Qing's condition. The information that appeared before him was:
[Variant Wolf (Contracted - Soul Link, Evolving)]
[Attributes: Wood, Toxic]
[Realm: Unknown]
[Species Potential: Unknown]
[Skills: Unknown]
Still evolving? Little Qing's Evolution wasn't complete yet? But the Evolution light had already disappeared!
Wait, the light around Little Qing was still there, just different.
So, Soul Link? Was it due to the Soul-Calling Wick? It seemed that Su Ping had stumbled into a new domain of pet cultivation that he didn't understand.
After waiting for five more minutes, the strange light surrounding Little Qing still hadn't dissipated.
Su Ping took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and then turned to the Multiverse Reflection Mirror. "Mirror Saint, it's time for you to take action!"
Although the complete cultivation method in the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits stated that the fourth stage of External Incarnation cultivation should occur after Evolution, the current situation was clearly special. Little Qing's Evolution seemed to be stuck, and if they didn't use the Soul-Calling Wick to guide the soul into a clone and complete the External Incarnation cultivation, Little Qing's Evolution might not be successful.
Moreover, from the Soul Contract, Su Ping could sense that Little Qing's soul was stable but in a very mysterious state.
Considering all the factors and his understanding of pet cultivation, Su Ping knew he couldn't wait any longer. He didn't want to waste the progress they had made so far.
After receiving Su Ping's instructions, the Multiverse Reflection Mirror and Su Ping entered the medical room together. Su Ping didn't touch Little Qing and instead took out the prepared Virtuous Spirit Water, looking at the Multiverse Reflection Mirror.
At that moment, the mirror's surface changed, and the pink, twin-tailed, 2D beauty disappeared. The mirror's surface became empty, and then it tilted, aiming at Little Qing.
A strange humming sound filled the air.
Little Qing's image appeared on the mirror's surface, and three virtual shadows emerged from the mirror.
However, just as the shadows were about to solidify, another problem arose. The shadows trembled and flickered, as if they might collapse at any moment.
"What the...?"
A voice echoed from the Mirror of All Things.
Before anyone could react, a brilliant light shone from the mirror, accompanied by terrifying spatial fluctuations and the spread of spiritual power. The aura of a Spirit-level Beast erupted, causing Su Ping to feel as if his heart had stopped beating.
Fortunately, this burst of power only lasted for a few seconds.
The several phantom images refracted by the Mirror of All Things instantly solidified and transformed into physical entities.
"What a loss! I actually used an empty crystal. That single dog wasn't lying; if I hadn't been prepared, it would have been difficult to condense this clone."
The voice of the Mirror of All Things sounded, and it was clear that this refraction had consumed an unimaginable amount of energy for the Mirror Saint.
But what was an empty crystal?
Su Ping didn't have time to think about these things or thank the Mirror Saint. Instead, his gaze instantly locked onto the three clones that had condensed.
Xiao Qing seemed to sense the appearance of these clones as well.
Three phantom figures emerged from the flickering, shimmering light surrounding Xiao Qing's body, each entering one of the three clones.
"Woof..."
At that moment, the three clones simultaneously erupted in howls, causing Su Ping to heave a sigh of relief while quickly pouring the three portions of Spirit Water he had prepared into their mouths.
The Mirror of All Things lived up to its reputation as a Spirit-level refraction-type Beast.
The clones it created were far more powerful and realistic than the ones created by the Crowned Wolf King using a multi-faceted prism.
After drinking the Spirit Water, the three clones slowly transformed into three strange wolf bodies.
These wolf bodies were very peculiar; their blue-green color was expected, but their physiques resembled those of the previous Spirit Wolves.
However, the overall color was slightly darker.
It was unclear whether these wolf bodies were Xiao Qing's final form or not.
Su Ping heaved a sigh of relief, his mind made up. From now on, he would let others take care of mutated Beasts.
Each evolution was a torturous process! How could anyone endure such emotional ups and downs? However, thinking about the fact that he hadn't found a specific evolution plan for Fatty yet, Su Ping's excitement was mixed with a touch of melancholy.
Oh well, it was time to face reality.
At the very least, although it had been a bumpy journey, it seemed like it was finally coming to an end, right? This was indeed the last step of the evolution and cultivation process.
However, the waiting time was no shorter than before.
Of course, compared to the time it took to cultivate the clones of the Crowned Wolf King, this was still relatively short. After all, when Qin Xiaoxue's Wood Spirit evolved, it took an entire day to maintain the clone.
But for Su Ping at this moment, it only required two hours.
During these two hours, Su Ping waited in the medical room, standing guard by Xiao Qing's side without leaving her side for a moment.
Spirit Water could stabilize souls, even the weakest ones, allowing them to resist external harm under its protection.
After using it on the three clones, Xiao Qing's three souls, maintained by the Soul-Drawing Lampwick, also fully condensed and stabilized.
"These clones..."
At that moment, the elder outside, witnessing the scene before him, couldn't help but sigh.
"What's so special about these clones?" Dong Mu Yun asked curiously.
Even though Dong Mu Yun was already a Sovereign Beastmaster, he still couldn't figure it out.
After all, Dong Mu Yun's expertise didn't involve clones extensively.
On the contrary, the elder, as he had mentioned, came from a family of Mirror Saints. Many clone-related skills required Mirror-type Beasts to execute.
she chose one didn't suit her.
"Regular clones are formed by energy condensation, while Beasts are primarily controlled by mental power. These clones are extremely difficult to control, and clone skills are considered high-potential but useless. One reason for this is the complexity of controlling them.
Beasts, unless they are mental-type Beasts, find it challenging to control clones and fight with them like the main body. But this little guy's clone..."
The elder was also perplexed.
In fact, he didn't know how Su Ping had achieved this. However, in his opinion, after the Mirror Ancestor created an energy clone with no apparent difference from the main body, the Beast's main body seemed to have transformed into a clone body.
What was this?
"It's interesting. No wonder this little guy has such confidence and assurance. A great reputation is not unfounded. I've heard that this little guy improved the clone skill of the Crowned Wolf King at the Demon Capital Academy, and it's likely that he gained inspiration from that experience!"
The elder sighed.
The Crowned Wolf King also involved clones, and Dong Mu Xuan was still studying at the Demon Capital Academy. Although Qin Xiaoxue wasn't considered a competitor, Qin Xiaoxue's rise in the Trial Tower rankings after the appearance of the Crowned Wolf King was partly due to her.
As the elder sighed, time slowly passed.
The time it took perfectly matched the cultivation time recorded in the Beast Tamer's Handbook, and after two hours, the three clone bodies slowly transformed back into their original forms.
After the three clones howled loudly into the sky, they turned their attention to Xiao Qing, who had remained motionless since the evolution began.
Under the control of Xiao Qing's dispersed soul, the clones slowly approached her body.
The first clone, along with the soul enhanced by the Spirit Water, merged into Xiao Qing's body.
Suddenly, a brilliant light shot into the sky!
Su Ping's face turned red, and he couldn't bear to watch any longer. He quickly covered half of his face because at this moment, Su Ping finally felt the significance of a Beast's evolution, which was extremely important to any Beastmaster."
In the soul contract, a powerful mental force from Xiao Qing's soul contract surged into Su Ping's body.
It was known that in Beiyuan, during his time with the Rong family, Su Ping had just reached the Overlord Fourth Stage.
However, this promotion once again pushed his rank to the peak.
Then, the second clone also merged into Xiao Qing's body, and as the evolution light shone again, Su Ping's realm finally broke through to the Overlord Fifth Stage.
The ripples of mental force spread out, causing even the space to show traces of waves.
Su Ping forcibly suppressed the fluctuations of his mental force, keeping his gaze mainly on Xiao Qing.
At this moment, the third clone merged with Xiao Qing once more.
As expected, a massive mental force surged back from the soul contract.
The Overlord Fifth Stage, which had just been achieved, was pushed to its peak once more.
With just a thought, Su Ping could promote himself again, directly breaking through to the Overlord Sixth Stage.
The sudden surge in mental force made Su Ping feel a bit dizzy.
Meanwhile, the sapphire-colored evolution light enveloped Xiao Qing once more.
Was this a second evolution, or was it simply completing the previous unfinished evolution?
Regardless, Su Ping now had time to digest the surge in his mental power and realm.
Closing his eyes, he calmed his restless mental force through meditation.
Xiao Qing, still in the evolution light, let out a mighty howl, as if absorbing all the green evolution light into herself, swallowing it into her body.
At this moment, Su Ping opened his eyes, and everyone present looked at the mutated wolf that had finally completed its evolution.
A powerful force surged and boiled within.
The invisible wind blew through the medical room, messing up the instruments and Su Ping's clothes.
"Xiao Qing!"
"Woof!"
The hoarse howl completely dispersed the previous light and shadows, revealing Xiao Qing, who had finished evolving. However, when they saw Xiao Qing, even Su Ping was slightly startled, let alone Dong Muyun and the others.
Su Ping had expected Xiao Qing's appearance to change significantly after this evolution, but he hadn't anticipated such a drastic transformation!
Compared to Qian Yi's paper figure's evolution, Xiao Qing's previous wolf form seemed almost unrelated.
It was as if flames were flickering.
It was as if the wind had taken shape.
It was as if beams of light had converged into form.
On Xiao Qing's sapphire-colored body, there were no visible hairs or sharp teeth. At this moment, Xiao Qing seemed to be completely enveloped by green flames, giving off an indescribable, eerie, and bewitching beastliness!
The constantly restless green, illusory figure on her body bore an eighty percent resemblance to the Green Demon Ginseng! Faintly, one could still discern some wolf-like features, but compared to before, the beastliness and wildness of the previous wolf had completely disappeared, replaced by an indescribable, flickering, and bewitching beastliness!
Was this what a Sapphire Beast Wolf Spirit looked like?
On the body composed of elements like fire, wind, and glowing lights, a pair of pitch-black eyes slowly lit up, and the first thing Xiao Qing did was turn her head towards Su Ping.
Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief as he saw in those eyes the excitement of having just evolved, and the warmth of seeing her master again.
It was evident that even with such a level of evolution, Xiao Qing's self-awareness and wisdom remained unaffected.
Su Ping's previously anxious heart finally settled, and he looked at Xiao Qing, in particular, caught his attention.
His first companion, who had always been by his side but hadn't left much of an impression, had finally evolved.
[Sapphire Beast Wolf Spirit (Contracted)]
[Attributes: Wood, Toxic]
[Current Realm: Overlord Eighth Stage]
[Race Potential: Monarch First Stage - ?]
[Skills: Super Sapphire Beast Body (Beginner), Super External Incarnation (Beginner), Mutated Toxic Wood Heart (Perfect), Sapphire Spring (Proficient), Beastly Spring (Proficient), Poison Vine Strangle (Perfect), Life Burst (Beginner), Poison Explosion (Beginner)]
Sapphire Beast... Wolf Spirit?
Su Ping finally smiled in satisfaction as he looked at the feedback from True Eye and the two super-ranked skills, which, though not many for a Monarch-ranked potential Beast, were of such high quality that they could be considered luxurious.
