Chapter 575: The New Evolution of the Forest Wolf! Reviving the Arm!
In life, aside from pursuing pleasure, enjoyment, responsibility, and other such things, what else is there to strive for?
Both Su Ping and Master Zhu, among others, could provide an answer.
It's about being engraved in history.
No one can refuse this, especially for those who have reached the peak of their lives. The things they can pursue in their lifetime are almost perfect, and what they can't achieve in this life, they won't be able to achieve in the next.
So, naturally, they strive for a good reputation after death.
This is only human nature. Many powerful ancient Beastmasters, after their deaths, left behind their legacies in their own Secret Realm spaces primarily for this reason.
Everyone wants their name to be passed down through the ages.
Normally, Meng Yao, as a Saint Spirit Rank, would have his name and specific deeds recorded in history books a few hundred years later, within detailed accounts of the current time period.
However, it's absolutely impossible for him to be written about like Su Ping or the Legendary Dragon in history textbooks used in Junior and Advanced Academies.
They are revered and known by countless Beastmasters and Breeders in the future.
To leave a bold mark in history, one must naturally find a way.
Therefore, after returning this time, Meng Yao chose to take a different path!
He wanted to become a powerful Beastmaster, like breaking through the Legendary Rank, but he had no confidence in it at all. The Legendary Rank was too vague and difficult.
What does a new type of beast represent?
The emergence of Mechanical Beasts in modern history has occupied an unimaginable amount of historical space.
Some specific individuals and beasts are enough to make all Beastmasters in the world remember them.
This is the meaning and value represented by a completely new type of beast.
Su Ping wanted to create a new type of beast. If Meng Yao directly joined this endeavor, becoming the Beastmaster of the first new type of beast, then in the history of the future, aside from Su Ping's name as the true creator, Meng Yao's reputation would be the most renowned.
Who could refuse such a temptation?
Even if this beast might have flaws or even the risk of sudden death, Meng Yao was willing to give it a try.
Looking at Meng Yao, Su Ping blinked and then nodded.
In fact, when he asked Meng Yao to activate the Sea King Naga Arm with his own spiritual consciousness, he wanted Meng Yao to become the master of this new possessed beast.
However, at that time, he didn't want him to become the Soul Contract master; he just wanted him to remember the breath and be able to control it to a certain extent.
Unexpectedly, Meng Yao was quite a loner, willing to come forward for such a matter.
"That's great, haha, Su Ping, how is the Sea King Naga Arm doing now?"
Su Ping shook his head: "There seems to be a certain deviation, and it's estimated that it will take a few more days to see the effects of revival."
During this observation, the Sea King Naga Arm already showed signs of life activation.
It's estimated that this process will take less than a few days.
Master Zhu laughed:
"This kind of big event can't be rushed. In less than ten days, it will be the New Year, and this year's Breeder Competition will begin. As the chief judge and master breeder for this competition, are you familiar with the participating contestants?"
Su Ping blinked, obviously not paying attention to the time himself.
At this time last year, he had already gone to the Magic Capital Academy to start preparing.
Although he doesn't need to participate this year, as the chief judge, this task may be even more important than last year.
As a result, he didn't put this matter in his heart at all.
"From your words, it seems there are some interesting breeding results in this competition?"
Master Zhu chuckled:
"I'm also in Linzhou, and the old Liu, who hasn't retired yet, is here with us. So, old Liu's intention is to make some contributions to the development of our hometown before stepping down.
This time, the breeding competition in Linzhou, Jianghai Province, will be under the watchful eyes of everyone. The three of us will attend as chief judges. I naturally have some understanding of it."
Su Ping had absolutely no objections to attending together.
He genuinely didn't want to stand out too much now.
It's fine if the three masters attend together.
"This time, you'll probably be interested, for a simple reason. I heard that there are breeding results from two provinces, and they are both evolved forms of the Forest Wolf!"
"Forest Wolf?
This time, Su Ping was indeed very interested, one could even say he was thrilled.
Currently, what he lacked the most was precisely the evolution of the Forest Wolf.
He desperately needed the second Lv5 creature in the Ten Thousand Spirit Codex to unlock the simulated cultivation ability at Lv5, allowing him to complete Laoshah's evolution once more.
Laoshah was one of his closest Mechanical Beasts.
He would never take action without absolute certainty.
Currently, the evolved Forest Wolf forms he possessed were the Forest Wolf, Spirit Wolf, Thorn Wolf, Thousand Wood Wolf, Crowned Tree Wolf, Foul Tree Wolf, and some evolution data regarding the Resurgent Deadwood Wolf that he had previously obtained from a breeder in Xijing Province.
Of course, the first six had already been cultivated by Lily and Su Ping.
Even the evolution method of the Foul Tree Wolf, after being acquired from that breeder in Dianzang Province, was restored by Su Ping using experience points.
Finally, it barely entered the Lord Rank, and it was considered a low-value cultivation method.
As for the Resurgent Deadwood Wolf, the breeder from Xijing Province who cultivated it was unable to replicate and organize a complete cultivation method again.
Su Ping hadn't paid attention to this recently, but with the Ten Thousand Spirit Codex, it wasn't a difficult task.
So, the Ten Thousand Spirit Heart required ten cultivation methods.
Now, they had seven.
If this time, they could get two more, or even one more, they would have them all! The Ten Thousand Spirit Codex was about to welcome its second golden legend!
Thinking of this, Su Ping felt a surge of excitement.
He turned to Zhu Hong:
"What kind of evolution is it?"
Zhu Hong chuckled, "I knew you'd be interested. Those people are also good at scheming, and they must have guessed that you'd be interested, and maybe they're specifically catering to your preferences."
Su Ping didn't confirm or deny this behavior.
But for something that could bring him real benefits, he wouldn't refuse or yield easily.
"One is an Imperial Rank evolution, from a breeder in Minyue Province, according to my inside information, the evolution is called the Aquawood Immortal Wolf! It's based on the Forest Wolf and then evolved with water attributes, a dual-attribute wolf pet with both water and wood elements.
Imperial Rank, this can't be entirely attributed to catering to your preferences. I heard that the breeder association in Minyue Province had this project before, but after your rise, the breeder association in Minyue gave this project a substantial grant.
At the same time, you also uploaded a lot of evolution experiences and papers on the Thousand Wood Wolf and the Crowned Tree Wolf, which gave them a lot of inspiration, so they cultivated this Aquawood Immortal Wolf."
Su Ping nodded in satisfaction:
"That's indeed good. Judging by the name, this evolution is probably exceptional. Not bad, not bad at all."
As an Elite Rank Mechanical Beast, the Forest Wolf's promotion to Imperial Rank was already considered a high-level evolution. In a breeder competition, it would undoubtedly have a place.
Indeed, it couldn't be solely attributed to him.
"As for the second one, it's from a breeder in the Central Province, although it's only a Lord Rank evolution, it's still quite good. It's the second life-type evolution wolf species developed, aside from the Spirit Wolf, named the Warm Jade Puppy."
Zhu Hong continued, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
It was evident that even in his eyes, the qualities of these two evolutions were quite impressive.
They weren't the kind that was merely sent to flatter Su Ping.
For example, the Foul Tree Wolf from before was exactly like that.
But thinking about it, it made sense. The breeder competition was a significant event held annually in the Dragon Nation.
This event was in front of a national audience, and even many Blue Star breeders from abroad would pay attention. They couldn't afford to lose face.
Although, like last year, Su Ping directly presented a Transcendent Skill, which was rarely seen, breeders were already at the top of the breeding world.
Most breeders were still researching ordinary skills and common evolutions.
"That's great, I'll pay close attention to it when the time comes."
On one hand, Su Ping had already started thinking about how to exchange these two cultivation methods.
After all, for the Ten Thousand Spirit Heart Codex to level up, it required his personal involvement in the cultivation.
"This year, the cultivation results from various provinces are excellent!
In previous years, there were also evolved pets, but the number wasn't too high. The focus was mainly on some special skills cultivated, and even magic potion recipes."
However, this year, among the many provinces, the evolved beasts bred already account for more than half.
Our country's breeding master profession is also thriving, which is great!"
Master Zhu expressed his thoughts.
The breeding master profession is a new force in the beast taming nation, representing a significant boost to our national strength.
It's just unknown whether there will be a surprise as explosive as last year.
However, it's unlikely to have a transcendent skill appear in a basic breeding master competition, as it's too rare.
"Alright, don't forget about the setup on the Rainbow Dragon's side. You go and take care of that first, and I'll continue with the breeding of the Inclusive Sea. If I don't produce some results, I'll probably be laughed at by you, kid."
After seeing Master Zhu off, Su Ping received a reply from Meng Yao, who was certain to respond. Without wasting any more time, he continued setting up the Sword Cleansing Pool and the Lightning Summoning Pool.
As for Jia Ji, although she obtained the Yin Water, it was evident that the Yin Water alone was not enough. It was just one of the many materials Su Ping had requested.
After unexpectedly acquiring it, she proceeded to prepare the remaining resources.
For a moment, Su Ping felt a sense of idleness.
If possible, Su Ping planned to wait for the Forest Wolf Bestiary to reach level 5 before breeding Old Sand's evolution.
As for Xiao Qing, she didn't need any attention at the moment. This little one had been focusing on improving herself and had just advanced to the Monarch 10th Stage yesterday.
Although she hadn't yet entered the Imperial Rank, her progress was impressive.
As for Little Flame, she was still devouring a large number of Monarch-ranked Flame Sovereign avatars.
Regarding Feifei and Little Hour, Su Ping could only say that it was a matter of fate.
During this time, apart from perfecting the breeding of the Dream Aurora Butterfly, he genuinely had nothing else to do.
However, this feeling was fleeting.
He wasn't interested in the Insect Heart at the moment because it couldn't be completed in a short time.
In fact, there was plenty to do regarding the breeding of his own beasts.
Xiao Qing was simultaneously cultivating the Verdant Overflow transcendent skill for herself and her three external incarnations. This task also needed to be added to the schedule.
However, the resources were temporarily insufficient, and he needed to ask Liu Niang for more.
At this thought, Su Ping suddenly remembered something.
The Emerald Jade Bodhi! There were four petals in total.
He had given one to Miss Qin and one to Dong Muchun.
He still had two petals left.
Having these petals was almost equivalent to having two small breakthroughs in the Imperial Rank.
They were extremely precious.
However, for Su Ping, they were just that.
Advancing in cultivation was not as valuable to him as trait-related resources.
He was confident that once Little Flame finished devouring and advanced to the Imperial Rank, he could break through to the 2nd Stage of the Imperial Rank without even using the Meditation Technique.
Therefore, the value of the Emerald Jade Bodhi to him was only in one aspect.
That was to research why it could preserve one's youth.
Hence, in the following two days, Su Ping took this invaluable peak Holy Spirit Rank resource into the laboratory and began basic trait analysis.
During these two days, he also didn't forget about the setup for the Dream Aurora Butterfly, which was the real energy-consuming task.
Fortunately, for Su Ping, he was no longer the novice breeder he once was, and he didn't make any mistakes.
Unfortunately, even though Su Ping didn't intend to analyze the energy of the Holy Spirit Rank resource for his advancement, he mainly focused on its youth-preserving properties and didn't gain much insight.
The only comfort he found was that this basic research didn't cause any damage to the Jade Bodhi.
If there were no benefits, it could still be used without any issues.
The two days passed in a flash.
The settling of the Dream Aurora Butterfly was almost complete.
However, the reason for taking two days had nothing to do with any of Su Ping's research.
The primary reason was that after these two days, the life trait on the arm of the Sea King Naga, who had been soaking in the water to nurture it, finally showed substantial improvement.
