Chapter 314: The Green Demon Wolf Spirit Evolves!

Chapter 314: The Green Demon Wolf Spirit Evolves!

"Hmm? You're here?"

Su Ping picked up the phone call without waiting for Dong Muchun to speak, and eagerly asked, "You're here? I'll be right there with you and Grandpa at the Wood Heart."

"Okay, please wait a moment. I'll come and get you two."

After hanging up the phone and informing the Green Demon Spring Ginseng, the latter didn't seem to mind. Its body directly transformed into an ordinary tree root and placed itself on the table, showing no intention of leaving. It was obvious that it needed to keep a close eye on Xiao Qing's evolution.

Although Su Ping was reluctant to leave, Xiao Qing's evolution radiance had just lit up, and it was estimated that it would take some time before the evolution could be completed.

If Dong Muchun had come alone, it would be fine, but there was also that senior from the Dong family. It would be impolite not to greet them.

Moreover, Dong Muchun had brought along the Mirror Sage from the Dong family.

Su Ping had never seen a Holy Spirit-level tool-type companion beast before.

It was impossible not to be impressed.

Tool-type companion beasts were not uncommon, like the Decaying Sword that Su Ping was most familiar with. However, it was extremely rare to find one that had reached a high level.

Perhaps this was why the Dong family had suffered a setback, but the Mirror Sage had stayed behind. The birth and growth of this thing were indeed precious.

"This is my grandfather, and also the current head of the Dong family, Dong Lingxuan. Grandpa, this is Su Ping."

Although Dong Muchun had some unpleasant issues with the family before, he didn't show any signs of it at this moment. Or perhaps, the internal affairs of large families were inherently complex.

This was a typical old man with a dignified demeanor and neatly combed white hair.

One look at him and you could tell that he was a strict and meticulous person.

"Hello, Senior Dong, I've heard a lot about you!"

Speaking of which, the Dong family had wanted to contact Su Ping several times before, and now he had finally met the main person in charge.

Su Ping extended his hand, and the old man's stern expression on his face disappeared completely, replaced by a smile, looking kind and amiable: "Hehe, it's I who should have heard of you. Earlier, Muchun told me that in our Jianghai Province, there is an extraordinary talent in beastmastery, and I've been wanting to see this genius who has earned Muchun's praise.

I just didn't expect to see it on TV first..."

"Please don't laugh at me, Senior Dong..."

"No, no, it's us old folks who should be ashamed..."

The two engaged in mutual flattery, appearing quite amiable. Not to mention Su Ping's impression of the Dong family, but his social skills were impeccable.

Dong Muchun was used to such situations.

Since she was young, she had rarely seen her grandfather with such a radiant smile.

Especially when dealing with younger generations, this was even more evident.

However, the Su Ping in front of her eyes was definitely not to be regarded as a junior.

As long as one's strength was powerful, everyone around would be nice.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Su Ping got straight to the point:

"Senior Dong, I don't know about the Mirror Sage..."

"I'm here!"

A soft and coquettish voice sounded, causing Su Ping to be taken aback.

The next moment, above the old man's head, a small object slowly materialized in the air.

It was a palm-sized mirror.

The mirror seemed to devour the space around it, and a red tassel hung below it, adding a touch of nobility to the mirror.

All of this matched Su Ping's imagination of the Heaven's Reflection Mirror.

However, a human face appeared in the mirror, and Su Ping couldn't quite react to it.

It was a standard anime-style girl's face, appearing on this peculiar mirror, giving Su Ping a strange sense of looking at a phone.

"This..."

Su Ping blinked, and at first, he couldn't quite process that this was the legendary Holy Spirit-level Heaven's Reflection Mirror, a rare Holy Spirit-level tool-type companion beast.

"Huh? From your expression, it seems you don't like this face? I think most young people nowadays should like it, right?"

The anime-style girl in the mirror tilted her head, looking at Su Ping curiously, and then scanned him up and down, continuing, "With your status and position, you should have many excellent human girls who like you, right? But you're still single, and based on my speculation, you probably like anime girls, right?"

"..."

A black line appeared on Su Ping's forehead. What was this all about?

Was this the Holy Spirit-level Heaven's Reflection Mirror?

Why did it seem so out of place?

Even the Dong family elder beside him felt slightly embarrassed:

"Senior Mirror, Su Ping has achieved so much at such a young age because he has devoted all his heart and soul to the companion beast business."

"Oh, that's right. A workaholic single, huh?"

The anime-style girl in the mirror nodded, looking understanding.

Su Ping pursed his lips, deciding not to pay attention to this broken mirror.

There was no need to argue with a mirror, especially when he would need its help later.

Of course, he would never admit that he couldn't beat this broken mirror.

Action: The Mirror Ancestor, Dong Muchun, showed a faint smile, understanding the temperament of the Mirror Saint from a young age. She spoke up at this moment:

"Su Ping, has your companion beast completed its evolution? What help does the Mirror Ancestor need?"

Su Ping nodded:

"Follow me, seniors!"

They returned to the medical room.

Through the insulated glass barrier, the three of them finally saw a companion beast silhouette enveloped in a verdant green light of evolution behind the glass.

"This is..."

"This is my companion beast, Xiao Qing. It's currently in an evolved state. I want the Mirror Saint to help with its evolution. After Xiao Qing completes its evolution, I want the Mirror Saint to use its abilities to create three fully materialized doppelgangers of Xiao Qing through the Heaven's Reflection Mirror, and sustain them for over two hours!"

Su Ping voiced his request, then smiled and added:

"If the Mirror Saint needs my help in the future, I will definitely not refuse!"

Su Ping wasn't thinking of taking advantage; after all, it was already a challenging task to get such a high-level entity to lend a hand.

Even with Su Ping's connections, it was still a hassle to mobilize a specific companion beast to assist in his evolution.

At this time, Su Ping wouldn't really take advantage of Dong Muchun's family's proximity.

However, neither party elaborated on this matter.

"A doppelganger skill after evolution? Su Ping, you want to cultivate a doppelganger-type skill?"

The elder beside them smiled and directly exposed Su Ping's thoughts, causing Su Ping to pause:

"You know?"

"Hehe, my Dong family is the lineage of the Mirror Saint. For the cultivation of doppelganger-type evolution skills, most require the assistance of reflective-type mirror-attribute companion beasts. I've helped with this many times."

"If you had said so earlier, there wouldn't have been a need for the Mirror Ancestor to personally intervene. My reflective mirror can also achieve the corresponding effect!"

The Dong family's elder smiled slyly.

Su Ping scratched his head:

"Well, the doppelganger skill I want to cultivate is not ordinary, and Xiao Qing's evolution is different from a typical forest wolf's. So, upon hearing that there's a Mirror Saint in the Dong family, I immediately thought of the Mirror Saint! Moreover, to be honest, even if the Mirror Saint comes, I'm not sure if the reflection can be completed!"

Su Ping wasn't intentionally belittling the Mirror Saint. In normal circumstances, there wouldn't be an issue. But if Xiao Qing consumed the Green Demon Spring Ginseng to complete its breakthrough evolution and gained some legendary traits, whether the Heaven's Reflection Mirror of the Holy Spirit level could complete the reflection was still an unknown.

Upon hearing this, the two people and the Mirror Saint in the mirror all paused.

Especially the two-dimensional beauty in the Heaven's Reflection Mirror, who crossed her arms and looked at Su Ping with disdain:

"A mere single dog dares to be so boastful!"

Can we not talk about this?

Su Ping glanced at the damn broken mirror.

"Su Ping, the Mirror Ancestor is a Holy Spirit-level Heaven's Reflection Mirror. As long as the entity's level doesn't exceed the Holy Spirit level, the Mirror Ancestor can reflect it! Even for Holy Spirit-level entities, the Mirror Ancestor can still reflect them! Furthermore, most skill strengths can be perfectly maintained!"

Clearly, as the Dong family's elder, he was very confident in the Mirror Ancestor's combat strength.

Su Ping added:

"Of course, I'm not doubting the Mirror Saint. It's just that this is the first time I'm trying to cultivate it!"

"A single dog dares to be so boastful!"

The pink-haired twin-tailed two-dimensional beauty continued to cross her arms and turned away, acting coy.

Su Ping fell silent.

Indeed, even if it's a companion beast, when it reaches the Holy Spirit level, their personalities differ. Look at our Rong family's Snake Ancestor!

Although he seemed a bit unreliable, he was like an ancient elder and the family's guardian deity.

Then look at this unreliable broken mirror.

Indeed, there was a reason why the Dong family had declined.

They didn't speak further on this matter.

This Dong elder was extremely talkative and knew a lot about various topics, especially regarding space-attribute companion beasts.

Compared to Dong Muchun, Dong Lingxuan had cleared up many of Su Ping's doubts about space.

For example, the teleportation array that Su Ping was most concerned about.

There were indeed teleportation arrays.

After all, the legion had used teleportation arrays.

However, establishing a teleportation array was extremely challenging, and it could only be set up in areas with weak space, like the land of a secret realm that had not existed for more than a few years.

In this regard, the Heart of All Spirits could meet the conditions.

Secondly, it required the extremely rare Emperor-rank space-attribute resource 'Mini Wormhole Stone,' a unique space resource said to be produced only in special secret realms and the starry sky above Blue Star, although it was only Emperor-rank, it was quite rare.

Furthermore, it required a space-attribute companion beast to stabilize the channel every once in a while.

Moreover, the distance of the space teleportation array was generally not very far.

For these reasons, the teleportation array couldn't be realized in a short time, and Su Ping could only sigh in regret.

Under Su Ping's unwavering gaze, in the isolated medical room, the huge cocoon bathed in verdant green light dimmed.

Suddenly, the entire medical ward outside fell into a deathly silence.

Even Qian Yi and Xiao Huoniao, who had appeared, stared intently at the isolation glass, at the creature about to complete its evolution.

Su Ping's heart rose to his throat, and he had a sense of foreboding.

Although Xiao Qing's soul was stable and showed no signs of weakness in the soul contract,

During this evolution, as he conversed with the two people beside him, suppressing his anxiety, he kept sensing carefully. Compared to Qian Yi's previous evolution, in fact, Xiao Qing's evolution this time lacked a certain occurrence.

This was the main reason for Su Ping's unease.

His cultivation realm showed no signs of improvement or progress.

Why were all beastmasters so enthusiastic about their companion beasts' evolution and nurturing? Companion beasts were soul-contracted to beastmasters, and their progress was mutual.

When a beastmaster's realm improved significantly, the companion beast would follow suit, and when the companion beast advanced, the beastmaster would also benefit.

Especially during companion beast evolutions, they often jumped several levels at lower realms.

Qian Yi's previous evolution was like this, and Su Ping's realm had also advanced significantly.

But this time, from the start of the evolution until now, nearing its conclusion, Su Ping's spiritual realm showed no signs of response or fluctuation.

There was not a hint of feedback on the soul contract indicating a completed evolution.

Could it be that something had gone wrong? Could the evolution have failed? Su Ping nervously pursed his lips, his gaze fixed on the medical ward.

It seemed that everyone could sense Su Ping's tension, and the atmosphere outside the ward was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Even the previously chatty Heaven's Reflection Mirror remained silent.

Finally, under everyone's watchful eyes, the light of evolution formed a cocoon of light, which gradually dimmed, revealing cracks.

The entire green cocoon turned white and, under these cracks, slowly became transparent.

A shadowy figure emerged, gradually coming into view before everyone's eyes.

However, there was no howling, no sound at all. Just a green shadow, still seemingly asleep, lay there.

What was going on?

Su Ping's heart sank. The light of evolution had faded, and whether the evolution was successful or not, Xiao Qing should have shown some reaction.

At this moment, Xiao Qing's body was enveloped in a strange light, almost like an illusion, and even under the bright lights, it was difficult to discern clearly.

Su Ping's heart stirred, and through the connection of the True Vision and the soul contract, he instantly perceived Xiao Qing's peculiar state, which appeared before his eyes.

[Mutant Wolf Spirit (Contracted - Soul Connection)]



[Attributes: Wood, Poison]



[Current Realm: Unknown]



[Race Potential: Unknown]



[Skills: Unknown]



Still evolving, this stage of Xiao Qing's evolution was not yet complete. But the light of evolution had already disappeared!

Wait! The surrounding light was still there, just a little different.

So, a soul connection? This was a new field that Su Ping had never encountered before. He didn't fully understand the nurturing process related to evolution.

After waiting for five full minutes, the strange light surrounding Xiao Qing showed no signs of fading.

Su Ping took a deep breath, thought for a moment, and turned to the Heaven's Reflection Mirror beside him.

"Mirror Sage, it's time for you to take action!"

Although the comprehensive nurturing method in the Bestiary was in its fourth stage, the current situation was clearly very special. Xiao Qing's evolution seemed to be stuck at this stage. If the soul, drawn by the Soul Attracting Wick, was not separated and immersed in the True Water to complete the nurturing of the Exterior Avatar, the evolution would not progress.

Moreover, Xiao Qing's soul was stable but in an extremely mysterious state.

Considering Su Ping's understanding of companion beast nurturing, he couldn't afford to wait any longer. He didn't want all his preparations for this evolution to go to waste.

After receiving Su Ping's command, the Heaven's Reflection Mirror entered the medical ward with him. Su Ping didn't dare to touch Xiao Qing at this moment.

Instead, he took out the True Water he had prepared and looked at the Heaven's Reflection Mirror.

At this moment, the pink twin-tailed anime girl in the mirror's surface completely disappeared.

The mirror surface was empty.

Then, the mirror tilted slightly, aiming at Xiao Qing.

Hum...

A strange sound echoed.

Xiao Qing's figure appeared within the mirror's surface.

Then, three illusory shadows emerged from the Heaven's Reflection Mirror.

However, as these shadows materialized, some issues arose again.

The three illusory shadows trembled in the mirror's reflection, even flickering, as if they might disintegrate at any moment.

"Damn, what the hell is this?"

A voice echoed from the Heaven's Reflection Mirror.

Afterward, before everyone could react, a beam of light erupted from the Heaven's Reflection Mirror, sending out terrifying spatial fluctuations and mental energy. The aura of a Holy Spirit Level fully erupted, making Su Ping feel as if his heart had momentarily stopped beating.

Fortunately, this full power eruption only lasted a few seconds.

The several illusory shadows refracted by the Heaven's Reflection Mirror instantly coalesced into form under such a powerful eruption.

Gradually transforming into solid entities.

"What a loss! I actually used a Void Crystal. That single dog was right; if I hadn't been prepared, it would have been quite difficult to form this avatar."

The voice of the Heaven's Reflection Mirror sounded, clearly indicating that even for this Mirror Sage, this refraction was an unimaginably massive expenditure! However, what exactly is a Void Crystal?

Su Ping didn't have time to think about these things or thank the Mirror Sage. His gaze instantly locked onto the three avatars that had condensed.

It seemed that Xiao Qing also felt the final appearance of these avatars.

From the shimmering light surrounding Xiao Qing, three illusory figures emerged.

Xiao Qing's soul, merged and guided by the Soul Attracting Wick, entered the three avatars.

"Awooo..."

The three avatars simultaneously howled, and as Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief, his actions were swift. He had already divided the Ethereal Water into three parts, placing it beside the mouths of the three avatars and pouring it in.

The Heaven's Reflection Mirror truly lived up to its status as a Holy Spirit Level refraction-type pet beast.

The avatars it created were far more powerful and real compared to the ones formed using a multifaceted mirror for the Tree Crown Wolf King.

After the Ethereal Water was poured into their mouths, the three avatars slowly transformed into three strange wolf bodies.

These wolf bodies were extremely peculiar, with a definite emerald green color, but their forms somewhat resembled the previous Spirit Wolf. However, the overall tone was darker.

However, these wolf bodies were just avatars; whether they would be Xiao Qing's final form after completion was still unknown.

Su Ping let out a sigh for the umpteenth time today.

He decided that in the future, anyone who wanted a mutant pet beast could have it.

Each evolution was a hellish torment!

With such fluctuating emotions, who could bear it?

However, thinking about the still-undecided evolution plan for Fatty, Su Ping's excited heart added a touch of melancholy.

Well, might as well accept reality.

At least, despite the ups and downs, it seemed that the process was finally coming to an end, right?

This was indeed the final step in the evolution cultivation!

However, the waiting time was no shorter than before.

Of course, compared to the time it took to cultivate the Tree Crown Wolf King's avatars, this was still relatively short. After all, when Qin Xiaoxue's Wooden Unicorn evolved, it took a full day to cultivate and maintain the avatar.

For Su Ping, it only took two hours.

During these two hours, Su Ping stayed in the medical room, never leaving Xiao Qing's side.

The Ethereal Water could stabilize the soul, even the weakest soul could resist external harm under its protection. It was also a precious resource for the Necrobeast class.

After using it on the three avatars, Xiao Qing's three souls, maintained by the Soul Attracting Wick, completely coalesced into form.

"These avatars..."

At this moment, the old man outside couldn't help but murmur.

Dong Muchun curiously asked:

"What's wrong with these avatars?"

For Dong Muchun, even though he was already a Monarch Rank Beastmaster, he still couldn't see what was special about them.

After all, Dong Muchun's expertise didn't involve avatars much.

On the contrary, the old man, as he had mentioned, being from the Mirror Sage family, the Dong family, many avatar-related skills required mirror-type pet beasts.

Therefore, he had an extremely thorough understanding of avatars.

"Generally, avatars are formed by energy and controlled by the pet beast's mental energy! This kind of avatar is very difficult to control, and the reason why avatar skills are considered to have high potential but are also very impractical lies in this!

For pet beasts, unless they are mental-type pet beasts, it is very troublesome to control avatars to fight like the main body! But this little guy's cultivated avatar..."

The old man was also a bit confused.

After all, he didn't know how Su Ping had managed to do it. However, from his perspective, after the Mirror Ancestor formed this energy avatar that was no different from the main body, the pet beast's main body seemed to have transformed into the avatar's main body.

What the hell?

"A bit interesting! No wonder, no wonder this little guy is so confident. There are no false reputations! It's said that this little guy improved the Tree Crown Wolf King's avatar skill at the Magic Capital Academy, and he likely gained inspiration from that!"

The old man sighed.

The Tree Crown Wolf King also involved avatars, and Dong Muchun was studying at the Magic Capital Academy. Although he wasn't a direct competitor to Qin Xiaoxue, he knew some of the reasons behind the increase in Qin Xiaoxue's ranking in the Trial Tower after the Tree Crown Wolf King appeared.

In such reflections, time slowly passed.

The cultivation method in the Bestiary was accurate, and almost exactly two hours later, the three Exterior Avatars gradually turned transparent again.

Then, the three clones let out a loud wolf howl, drawing everyone's attention to Qing Qing, who had been unmoving since the beginning of evolution.

Under the control of Qing Qing's soul, the clones slowly approached the main body.

The first clone, along with the clone enhanced by Ethereal Water, merged into Qing Qing's body.

Suddenly, a brilliant light shot into the sky!

Su Ping's face turned bright red, and he couldn't bear to watch any longer. He quickly covered half of his face, for at this moment, Su Ping finally felt the significance of the evolution of his companion beast, which was extremely important to any beastmaster.

Within the soul contract, a powerful spiritual feedback from Qing Qing's soul contract surged into Su Ping's body.

It should be known that in the Northern Plains, when Su Ping was with the Rong family, his realm had just been promoted to Overlord Rank 4.

However, this promotion further pushed his realm to the peak.

Even if he wanted to, he could complete another promotion and directly advance to Overlord Rank 6.

The sudden surge in spiritual power made Su Ping feel a bit dizzy.

At the same time, the green-blue evolution light once again enveloped Qing Qing.

Was this a second evolution? Or was it simply completing the previous unfinished evolution?

Regardless, Su Ping finally had time to digest this sudden increase in spiritual power.

Closing his eyes, he meditated, and the turbulent spiritual power gradually stabilized.

Qing Qing, still in the midst of evolution, let out a loud wolf howl, as if merging all the green evolution light into herself and swallowing it into her body.

At this moment, Su Ping also opened his eyes and looked at the finally evolved mutant wolf spirit before him.

The surging power rippled and boiled.

An invisible wind blew through the medical instruments and Su Ping's clothes.

"Qing Qing!"

"Awoo!"

The hoarse wolf howl completely dispersed the previous light and shadows, and the evolved Qing Qing finally appeared before everyone.

However, when they saw Qing Qing, even Su Ping was slightly startled.

When Qing Qing started evolving, he had thought that Qing Qing's appearance would change significantly after this evolution, but he hadn't expected the change to be so drastic.

Compared to the previous evolution of the little paper man, Qian Yi, Qing Qing and the previous wolf spirit seemed to have little correlation.

It was as if the flames were swaying.

It was as if beams of light were gathering and taking shape.

On the green-blue body, no hair could be seen, and no sharp teeth or fangs protruded. At this moment, Qing Qing seemed to have become a living being completely enveloped in green flames.

The restless green illusory body on her body resembled the previous Green Demon Spring Ginseng by 80%.

Faintly, one could still discern a wolf-like shape, but compared to before, the beastly and wild nature of the previous wolf spirit had completely disappeared, replaced by an indescribable, eerie, and demonic nature!

Was this what a green demon was like?

The green-blue body, with a pair of pitch-black eyes, slowly lit up, and the first thing it did was turn its head to look at Su Ping.

Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief, for in those eyes, there was the excitement of having just evolved, and there was also a glimpse of the master's affection.

Clearly, even at this level of evolution, Qing Qing's self-awareness and wisdom had not been affected.

Su Ping's previously anxious heart finally settled, and then he turned his true eye to look at Qing Qing, who had finally completed her evolution.

This first companion beast, who had always been by his side but had little presence,

【Green Demon Wolf Spirit (Contracted)】

【Attributes: Wood, Poison】

【Current Realm: Overlord Rank 8】

【Race Potential: Emperor Rank 1 - ?】

【Skills: Super Green Demon Body (Entry), Super Exterior Avatar (Entry), Mutant Poisonous Wood Heart (Perfect), Green Spring (Proficient), Demon Spring (Proficient), Poison Vine Strangulation (Perfect), Life Burst (Entry), Toxic Explosion (Entry).】

Green Demon... Wolf Spirit? Su Ping looked at Qing Qing through his true eye and the feedback he received, and although for an Emperor Rank potential companion beast, the quality and luxury of the two super-tier skills were unparalleled.
