Chapter 497: Chaos Sentinel Crow! Golden Phoenix! Yin-Yang Incarnation!
Chapter 497: Chaos Sentinel Crow! Golden Phoenix! Yin-Yang Incarnation!
The entire space seemed to ripple with the rapid flashing of the evolution light.
The evolutionary power transformed into a cocoon of light, completely enveloping the little crow within.
At this moment, all the preparations and breeding efforts had reached the climax, and the results were about to be revealed.
In reality, this time, the little crow's evolution breeding seemed to have taken less time than many other beasts, making it much simpler.
However, this was just the initial breeding step.
In fact, to research the little crow's evolution breeding, Su Ping had invested a lot of effort, and it was indeed not a small amount.
Fortunately, in terms of resources, it didn't take too much time.
The help from the Breeder Association was indeed crucial to him.
Of course, with benefits come responsibilities.
Su Ping, having revealed his External Incarnation, was not afraid of Zhu Hong officially reporting it.
As his strength and influence grew, some hidden trump cards could gradually be unveiled.
It was also because of this that Su Ping understood the status and significance of the External Incarnation among the blue star breeder community.
The strength of breeders in every country was crucial, and it was no less formidable than the top beastmasters' combat power! A powerful breeder could not only enhance the combat strength of beastmasters but also attract many other beastmasters to join the vast blue star.
The reason why the Eagle Kingdom has become increasingly powerful over the past hundred years, besides seizing the new track of mechanical beasts, is largely due to the strength of its breeders.
Aside from the numerous breeding masters, the world-renowned undead breeding grandmaster, Charles, who received the so-called Breeder Lifetime Achievement Award, is a fine example.
After the External Incarnation was made public, it was evident that it would attract some breeders and beastmasters to join the Dragon Kingdom's breeder camp.
"I wonder what the final result will be!" Zhu Hong spoke up with a sigh.
He glanced at Su Ping, clearly having been unable to hold back his curiosity any longer.
Su Ping snapped out of his thoughts, "No matter the outcome, I've done my best, and it can be considered a test of my breeder career during this time!"
Since awakening his talent and obtaining the Beast Taming Space, officially becoming a beastmaster, Su Ping's breeding efforts had indeed been aided by the Ten Thousand Spirit Ledger and various coincidences.
From the initial Wood Heart, the perfected Thousand Wood Wolf, the accidentally acquired Sun Heart, the Five Elements Body inspired by Zhou Tian, and even the External Incarnation.
Many of these were achieved with the help of a golden finger.
Su Ping wasn't the type to be sentimental about using a golden finger to prove himself.
However, he wasn't foolish enough to rely solely on the golden finger's assistance without thinking for himself.
He never stopped learning, summarizing from the initial evolutions, the breakthrough cognitive evolution of the Devil Wolf Heart, the Illusory Heart, and the Origami Man. The subsequent breeding of his own beasts was also done through his own summaries and breeding directions.
However, this time's breeding evolution was undoubtedly more challenging, with many issues to consider.
This time, the Ten Thousand Spirit Ledger provided no help, yet Su Ping still reached this point.
Whether successful or not, it was a summary of his efforts over the past year.
Zhu Hong, standing beside him, looked at Su Ping with a sigh, finding it odd, "How old are you? This isn't even your contracted beast, and you're already at the point of testing your breeder career?"
Seeing Su Ping smile without speaking, Zhu Hong couldn't hold back any longer, "Su Ping, was what you said earlier true?"
Su Ping knew what he was referring to and nodded, "Xiao Qing's splitting ability is the External Incarnation."
Even though he was prepared, Zhu Hong was still shocked, taking several deep breaths before finally calming down, "How?"
Su Ping clicked his tongue, "It's definitely powerful, and its auxiliary functions are numerous. The reason Xiao Qing can keep up with my breakthrough speed after reaching the Monarch level, and possibly even faster, is because of this ability.
Not only that, but the use of the incarnation's skills can grant experience to the main body.
As for combat, the main body won't die as long as an incarnation is present, and the incarnation possesses all the skills of the main body. Additionally, it can split into countless small combat incarnations, each possessing a portion of the main body's skills."
These simple words were enough to explain the power of the External Incarnation.
However, after a pause, Zhu Hong said, "I won't report this to the higher-ups. You can decide when the time is right to reveal it."
Hmm? Su Ping hadn't expected this.
Zhu Hong sighed in exasperation, "You're too extreme, but the External Incarnation has been watched by so many countries on the Blue Star for so many years. Once it appears, the attention and scrutiny you'll face will be even greater! It's even more than when you achieved the Breeder Hall's Supreme Skill... Forget about the rest, who knows if other countries will make some small moves? Charles's incident is still fresh in my memory!
Although Meng Yao has been keeping an eye on them, who knows what those guys might do for some matters?"
Su Ping shrugged, not overly concerned.
What difference does it make if it's revealed or not?
The Saint Dragon probably already had some idea about it, and they both understood the unspoken agreement.
It was better not to announce it publicly.
However, Su Ping looked at Zhu Hong with interest, "Elder Zhu, don't you want to try the effect of this second-ranked Supreme Skill in the Breeder Hall?"
As he spoke, Zhu Hong swallowed hard, his mouth dry.
As a Master Breeder, and one who specialized in all elements, how could he not be interested in such a skill?
"Su Ping, are the breeding conditions very difficult and demanding? If you have the time, you could help me with..."
Su Ping smiled, "That's easy enough. However, for the breeding of External Incarnations, aside from resources, there are specific requirements for the beasts.
Your beasts have been with you for many years, and all five of them seem to have already advanced beyond the Imperial Rank, right?"
Clearly, Zhu Hong understood Su Ping's implication and patted his chest, "Don't worry about that. I'm not in a rush either. I estimate that in a while, I should be breaking through to the Holy Spirit Level! I'll leave the new beast to you then. Whatever resources you need, just tell me, and feel free to state any requirements you have!"
Su Ping nodded.
Indeed, there was no need to rush.
"There are some requirements. The beasts you choose should either be unhatched eggs, but for those unhatched eggs, you need to find the eggs of three other beasts of the same category. Moreover, the unhatched egg should be of the Imperial Rank or higher. This is a relatively high requirement.
If not, it's best to choose a beast above the Commander Level that has never evolved before."
Su Ping informed Zhu Hong of these breeding preparation requirements.
Otherwise, if this person were to create one that doesn't meet the requirements, it would be problematic later.
Zhu Hong nodded solemnly, "Good! Rest assured, I'll pay attention to it when the time comes."
After saying this, Zhu Hong finally spoke with a sigh, "Speaking of which, in such a short time, how many Super Rank Skills have you created? Can you surpass that old warlock, Charles?"
At this point, Su Ping began to calculate, "Let me see. The Sun Core of the Wood Wolf, the Five Elements Body of the Paper Man, and the Fire Seed. Plus the External Incarnation, that makes four, barely."
Zhu Hong was only referring to the newly created Super Rank Skills, not those that Su Ping could already breed.
For example, Fifi's Fantasy Manifestation and the Deep-Rooted skill of the Wood Root.
Additionally, there were also the special skills of some unique breeds that appeared during special breedings.
For instance, Fifi's Titan Body, Qing's Green Demon Body, and Qianyi's Sword Incarnation.
Zhu Hong also nodded, "Old Liu's Winter Child should count too. Since you both bred it, it's also your achievement. So, that makes five. Not bad at all! That old Charles has only developed six on the surface!
In just over a year, you've already achieved so much, and the quality of your skills is even higher than his Super Rank Skills!"
Su Ping didn't confirm or deny this, but as Zhu Hong implied, who knew what Charles had hidden? These were just the ones he had revealed.
This old warlock was both crafty and cunning, so such speculation was within reason.
Suddenly, Zhu Hong seemed to recall something and blurted out, "Oh, by the way, some people from the Lion Realm have arrived in our..."
Before he could finish, both of them simultaneously stopped speaking and turned their heads to look at the little crow not far away.
Finally, amidst their casual conversation,
The dazzling Evolution Light, which had been so glaring, began to slowly dim.
A blurry figure appeared before the two of them.
Undoubtedly, it was still a bird.
Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that it might have evolved into something chaotic and bizarre.
However, even as he barely made out the vague silhouette, Su Ping felt that despite the distance from the laboratory, the temperature was slowly rising.
That blurry figure seemed to belong within the flames.
Su Ping immediately summoned Little Qing and had her External Incarnation bring the little crow, who was still dazed from the incomplete evolution, out of the laboratory.
It turned out that Su Ping's first reaction was absolutely correct.
As soon as the little crow was placed on the empty grassy area of the Wood Heart, a fierce flash of firelight erupted, turning the entire Wood Heart into a giant steamer.
But at this moment, Su Ping had no time to think about this, not even a moment to wipe the sweat from his brow.
Under the setting sun, he gazed at the figure amidst the sunset glow, radiating endless flames.
The Soul Insight Eye instantly locked onto it, staring intently.
Finally, within the flames, the little crow's form, accompanied by a crisp 'caw', echoed throughout the entire Wood Heart.
At the same time, the figure also entered everyone's field of vision.
However, just at the first glance, Su Ping's eyebrows furrowed.
The reason was simple; the dazzling golden feathers were completely different from the previous dark red-black appearance, as if it had emerged from a stove pit.
In the sunset glow, it shimmered brightly, appearing incredibly luxurious.
But, he wanted something more than just this!
The golden feathers, like flowing light, reflected the sky's sun, absorbing the firelight in the air.
Its entire body seemed sculpted from pure gold.
And most notably, were the little crow's open eyes.
These were a pair of extremely peculiar eyes.
One was crystal white, with only a tiny black dot visible within.
The other, in stark contrast, was completely black, with a small white dot at the center of the pupil.
In the instant they saw these eyes, the two small dots seemed to rotate and move.
Then, the white pupil with the black dot closed.
Following this, the endless flames gradually disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, a black tint spread from Yao Yao's brow.
Su Ping and Zhu Hong were both stunned. In just three seconds, Yao Yao had completed an unimaginable transformation! From the previous golden sculpture, she turned into a pitch-black figure.
Except for the slowly opening white eye, her entire body was black, like a night-shrouded eagle in the darkness.
What was this? Soul Insight Eye's spiritual power suddenly activated, revealing all of Yao Yao's evolved abilities after her display:
【Chaos Sentinel Crow (Wild)】
【Age: 2 years, 1 month, 13 days】
【Attributes: Fire, Darkness, Light】
【Current Level: Monarch 9th Tier】
【Race Realm: Holy Spirit 10th Tier】
【Race Skills: Super Fire Seed (Mastery), Super Yin-Yang Incarnation (Basic), Mutant Light Radiance (Basic), Mutant Nightfall (Basic), Mutant Light Reflection (Basic), Mutant Dark Echo (Basic), Light and Darkness Breath (Basic)】
【Meteoric Flame Shower (Mastery), Grand Inferno (Mastery), Smoky Flame (Mastery), Radiant Flame (Mastery), Fire Devouring (Perfect), Flame Stream Robe (Mastery)】
Su Ping and Zhu Hong, almost simultaneously, gasped in shock.
Even for either of them, they never expected that after this evolution, Yao Yao's race limit would soar to the peak of the Holy Spirit level!
It should be known that this evolution only used a Holy Spirit-level resource.
It was already challenging to promote a pet to the Holy Spirit level.
But what they didn't expect was that not only did it ascend, but it also reached the limit! Indeed, this was a limit evolution!
Because legendary pets couldn't reach the race limit through normal means; they required skill breakthroughs and a grasp of the rules.
In other words, Yao Yao's race limit was the highest possible!
Obviously, aside from the Fire Seed skill that directly soared to Mastery, a significant reason was the other skill, 'Yin-Yang Incarnation.'
Just by looking at the name, one could tell that this six-character super-rank skill was extraordinary!
Su Ping, in the first instance, focused his gaze on this super-rank skill:
【Super Yin-Yang Incarnation (Basic): A perfect balance and fusion of opposing energies, forming the most primal energy state corresponding to the Chaos Qi! However, due to the unique nature of this power and the individual's insufficient level, they cannot fully unleash the skill's potential. They can only utilize this power through form changes.
Golden Phoenix Form: Transforming one's energy into the Yang extreme, the Golden Phoenix form! Enhances all flame-based skills with light element attributes, significantly increasing flame temperature. Simultaneously, the unique skill 'Mutant Light Radiance' evolves into a super-rank domain skill in this form, and 'Mutant Light Reflection' evolves into a super-rank skill.
Dark Raven Form: Transforming energy into the Yin extreme, the Dark Raven form! All flame skills gain dark element attributes, reducing flame temperature and causing freezing effects. Simultaneously, the unique skill 'Mutant Nightfall' evolves into a super-rank domain skill in this form, and 'Mutant Dark Echo' evolves into a super-rank skill.
Yin-Yang: In each form, the energies do not deplete each other. When not using corresponding energy forms, recovery speeds up. Every time the form changes, all injuries are fully healed!】
"Damn!"
Two voices exclaimed simultaneously, and Zhu Hong, also gifted with the True Eye, joined in.
Zhu Hong's eyes twitched as he stared at the crow in disbelief.
These skill effects, aside from the last one, were extraordinary. The form change accelerated recovery, and unused energy recovery speed increased.
This was equivalent to having an extra health and energy bar!
The abilities of these two forms were outrageous.
Just the fact that these two skills evolved into super-rank powers was incredible.
What kind of monster skill had this kid created? And from the looks of it, aside from skill level restrictions, it seemed that the little crow's realm was too low to unleash the skill's full potential.
Could it be that, after just half a year, this little rascal had created another hall-level super-rank skill?
Zhu Hong felt a dryness in his mouth.
Su Ping, on the other hand, exhaled deeply.
As expected!
The perfect balance of opposing energies could cause a qualitative change when they merged and interacted.
He couldn't wait to see the changes in Yao Yao's flames in the Golden Phoenix and Dark Raven forms.
However, there was also the Fire Seed skill, which seemed to have undergone a metamorphosis.
And the true transformation within Yao Yao at this moment, what was it?
The Flame Sovereign's pursuit, the special skill he sought throughout his life but never obtained, what had changed?
