Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)

Lin Yuan was aware of Fan Lou's capabilities.

Lin Yuan used Fan Lou because he wanted Fan Lou to work for him. As long as Fan Lou worked for him, Lin Yuan would give him benefits and would not make his life unnecessarily difficult.

Even if Fan Lou made a mistake, he could just eliminate him.

Fan Lou's worries were unnecessary.

If Lin Yuan wanted Fan Lou to complete a task, he would do his best to pave the way for him.

The Dark Pufferfish would not trade their poison to the Bloodians in a one-time deal. When Fan Lou returned, there would be two Dark Pufferfish going with him.

These two Dark Pufferfish experts would interact with the Bloodians and name Fan Lou as the liaison to the Dark Pufferfish.

This way, Fan Lou would be able to successfully become acquainted with the Bloodians and would also become more important to Feng Qing.

Based on Fan Lou's memories, Lin Yuan understood that Feng Qing was very pragmatic and believed in luck. Feng Qing felt that his luck had taken a turn for the better ever since Fan Lou appeared and that it was Fan Lou who had brought him significant benefits. It was for all these reasons that he heavily favored Fan Lou.

This time, Fan Lou had not only done a good job with Feng Qing's task but had also brought him significant benefits.

The Dark Pufferfish were even stronger than the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves. Feng Qing would be delighted to be approached by a strong species. His position among the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves would be elevated as a result.

Just like how Kong Huan had to contend with rivals among the Alluring Foxes, Feng Qing also had rivals among the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

Feng Qing's rivals were not weak, and his position had been shaken in an incident a few years ago.

Fan Lou was unaware of all of this, but it did not prevent him from realizing, based on Lin Yuan's words, the benefits that he would be receiving. Fan Lou could not contain his joy.

Before this operation, Fan Lou only thought about completing Lin Yuan's task and preserving his own life. He never expected Lin Yuan to give him such a major opportunity.

Lin Yuan gave Fan Lou 500,000 Honor Absent dollars and numerous spirit qi crystals. These resources caused Fan Lou to be overcome with elation.

But Fan Lou was actually after the elevation of his status. Once his status was raised, he would be able to enjoy the comforts of the upper class.

In the past, Fan Lou could only wield his power and indulge in luxury among the Light Wind Wolves. He needed to walk on eggshells when it came to the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves.

After this operation, he would not even have to continue keeping his guard up among the Chaos Wind Demon Wolves!

Moreover, once he caught the Bloodians' attention, he would be able to slowly wean himself off his reliance on Feng Qing.

Suddenly, a thought appeared in Fan Lou's head.

As long as he did his best under Lin Yuan, he might be able to turn the tables on Feng Qing and become someone whom Feng Qing needed to rely on!

Unlike other superiors he had served in the past, Lin Yuan did not wait for Fan Lou to express his unending gratitude.

All Lin Yuan did was calmly turn his gaze to Fan Lou.

"I like people who know their place. All you need to do is work hard at the tasks you're given."

Lin Yuan did not give Fan Lou many instructions or words of encouragement. Fan Lou made sure to take his words to heart.

Lin Yuan then used Node Transportation to return to Sky Sea's back.

Spring and Summer had sent messages. They informed him that the King Blood Jackals were much stronger than expected but were not a big issue for the two of them. They were easily able to take control of the King Blood Jackals.

The King Blood Jackals' current queen was close to reaching Domain Mountain/Holy Spirit.

With experts of such power present in the remote area North of the Lonely River, it was no wonder that the King Blood Jackals were able to occupy such a large proportion of the resources and deter other species from the area. It was impossible to achieve this without ferocious power!

But taking control of them was one matter as the King Blood Jackals had violent tempers, and it was very difficult to tame them through regular means.

The King Blood Jackal Queen had not stopped resisting violently.

Spring and Summer did not do anything else. Rather, they waited for Lin Yuan to arrive so he could decide what to do.

In regular fights among species, the most time and effort-saving method was to kill the stubborn King Blood Jackal Queen.

But now, Lin Yuan urgently needed help.

Once the King Blood Jackal Queen gave up her loyalty, he would essentially gain a competent general.

The King Blood Jackals were not considered one of the ruling species in the Sky Beyond the Clouds and had been under the control of another powerful species in the past.

In order to gain the loyalty of the King Blood Jackal Queen, benefits apart from martial force and intimidation were necessary!

The King Blood Jackal bloodline could strengthen explosive abilities and was of an acceptable standard for Lin Yuan to absorb through the Body of All Spirits.

…

As Summer looked at the golden-haired female warrior who was continuing to thrash and wail despite being chained up, she shook her head in frustration.

This blonde sure was stubborn!

But a personality as stubborn as this would become exceptionally loyal once she was tamed.

For an expert like the King Blood Jackal Queen, who had her own unique bloodline, the most attractive bait was the prospect of strengthening her bloodline.

The King Blood Jackal Queen's bloodline had reached the peak of its current level. Hence, Lin Yuan would easily be able to trigger a bloodline transformation in her.

The King Blood Jackal Queen's bloodline was akin to a bottle that was fully filled.

When Lin Yuan used the Body of All Spirits to evolve the King Blood Jackal Queen's bloodline, he would essentially be pouring more water into the bottle. The bottle would eventually crack under the pressure from the water.

This was the strength of the Body of All Spirits!

…

Once Lin Yuan received the messages from Spring and Summer, he decided to ride Sky Sea to the sky above the King Blood Jackals' territory.

For a species like the King Blood Jackals that Lin Yuan intended to take control of, he did not mind them finding out about Sky Sea's existence. This was because he would eventually have stronger control over them than he did the Lonely River's Four Species Overlords!

Sky Sea moved extremely quickly, and the villages under Wen Yu, Liu Jie, and the rest would never be able to keep up. Moreover, it would not be suitable to relocate the villages in such a large-scale migration.

Once Lin Yuan had fully cleared out the King Blood Jackals' territory, he would arrange for the villages to be relocated to areas with an abundance of resources.

The lifeforms in the villages would be given citizenship and take up residence in the territories. They could use their labor and contributions to trade for resources and improve their quality of life. From then on, they would not need to wait to be fed.

This would not only give them pride but also set the goal of improving their standard of living!

Lin Yuan told the Moon Empress of this situation, and she could not help but express her amazement.

Lin Yuan's development in the Sky Beyond the Clouds was progressing extremely differently from her expectations.

After arriving in a higher-level world, Lin Yuan did not struggle to survive. Rather, he immediately began thriving.

She could no longer help him in terms of martial force. Rather, she now needed him to protect her.

But when it came to managing territories, she was still able to be of help to her disciple!

Besides the Moon Empress, Lin Yuan also told Wen Yu, Liu Jie, Su Yiren, and the other main members of Sky City about the situation.

Lin Yuan did not need to invest too much effort into managing his territories.

Truthfully, in the faction known as Sky City, Lin Yuan never saw himself as a trailblazer but as a producer. He would only be able to increase his own value by producing as many resources as possible!

This was an ability that no other member of Sky City could replicate and was the foundation of Sky City itself.

Otherwise, even if Sky City had its current lineup, it would not have sufficient resources. Even the most talented and resourceful people were unable to accomplish anything without the necessary materials. Sky City would never have been able to develop to its current extent!

The King Blood Jackals had to have many feys or special resources that could be nurtured in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.

Almost all of the resources in the Spirit Lock spatial zone came from the main world. They would need to be overhauled and upgraded now that they were in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

In truth, Lin Yuan had been bothered by something before coming to the Sky Beyond the Clouds. He was worried about whether he would be able to continue obtaining spirit qi crystals by helping feys evolve like he did in the past. This was why Lin Yuan had been doing his best to gather and stock up on as many spirit qi crystals as he could back in the main world.

But once Lin Yuan arrived at the Sky Beyond the Clouds and witnessed the small villages, he knew that he had been overly concerned!

It was far easier to obtain spirit qi crystals in the Sky Beyond the Clouds than in the main world. While collecting the spirit qi crystals, Lin Yuan could even help the lifeforms who had reached the necessary grade to overcome their World Cleansings as a form of rewarding them.

Over the past few days, numerous lifeforms in the villages evolved.

The Sky Beyond the Clouds' world wills were much stronger than those of the main world. Hence, it was also two to three times more challenging to evolve lifeforms here than in the main world.

However, the lifeforms did not differ greatly in power.

It was because it was two to three times more difficult that many lifeforms lost their lives in the process. The lifeforms in the Sky Beyond the Clouds who did not have anyone to support them did not dare to carelessly attempt evolutions.

It was the greatest gift to any faction if one could help them successfully complete their evolutions.

…

Lin Yuan had obtained a few types of special strange water from the Dark Pufferfish. The strange water was much stronger than the special-grade strange water found in the Class 5 water world dimensional rifts of the main world.

Lin Yuan had learned from Hunting Tracks that such strange water was produced in large quantities in the Lonely River.

Each time the strange water appeared, brawls would take place in the Lonely River.

Strange water was often produced in the large rivers and lakes in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Lin Yuan only needed to put his mind to it, and he would be able to obtain an endless stream of strange water.

Dark Blue was not the only one who needed the strange water. It would also have wondrous effects on Frigid.

Frigid needed to absorb a large amount of attributes from strange water to evolve.

Sky Sea would take some time before arriving at the King Blood Jackals' territory. Lin Yuan could use this opportunity to use the strange water to nurture Frigid.

Lin Yuan had not paid attention to Frigid in a very long time.

But even if top-grade strange water could not significantly evolve Frigid, Lin Yuan had not stopped supplying resources to it.

Frigid was currently Sovereign/Creation. If not for his fear of cutting off Frigid's evolution potential, Lin Yuan could have already evolved Frigid to Immortal Breed when he was in the main world.

Lin Yuan lifted his hand and summoned Frigid.

Frigid had a calm personality and did not like to interact with others. This was a trait it shared with its contractor, Lin Yuan.

A group of strange fish accompanied Frigid. They were covered with a thick layer of bone-like scales. The reflection off of the bones filled the space with coldness. These fish were Frigid's Poisonous Magic, and they were called the Cold Season Poisonous Fishes.

This was one of Frigid's combat techniques.

Compared to Barren beasts and demons, the sea demons' abilities mostly involved boosting precious instruments.

With Frigid's current power, it could easily boost a 10 Stars precious instrument past 12 Stars to reach a new level!

The Sky Beyond the Clouds' ingredients and materials were far better than what Lin Yuan had access to in the main world. Hence, Lin Yuan would definitely be forging new precious instruments.

Lin Yuan used True Data to check on Frigid and the Cold Season Poisonous Fishes.

[Fey Name]: Purple Frigid Sea Demon Emperor

[Fey Species]: Sea demon emperor species/sea demon species

[Fey Grade]: Sovereign (5/10)

[Fey Type]: Water

[Fey Quality]: Creation Breed

Life Water:

[Purple Frigid Heavy Water (Jellyfish)]: When it absorbs water, the water sprite will start to grow until it reaches its limit. At its limit, every drop of water in the water sprite will be as heavy as 1,000 gold pieces and flow out in all directions. Once it comes into contact with a friendly target, the frigidity in the water will gather on the surface of the target and increase its defense. When it comes into contact with an enemy target, the frigidity and curse will cause the part of the target that it comes into contact with to freeze and be injured. The curse in the frozen target can explode and attack the target's soul, causing it to become frozen forever. It will then become a Cold Frost Soul that has the ability to boost soul power. (It is in the midst of evolving into the independent sea. Once the evolution is successful, the water sprite and independent sea can swap between each other.)

Life Poisonous Magic:

[Cold Season Poisonous Fish (School of Fish)]: The school of fish will place a curse on a lifeform in the area. Every subsequent year that the lifeform stays alive, a cold curse will accumulate in it. Every layer of the cold curse will slow down the circulation of its blood, spiritual power, spiritual energy, and soul power. After it uses its tail to pierce the cursed target, the accumulated curse in the target's body will explode. This will not only harm the target but also allow the Cold Season Poisonous Fish to absorb the cold season power that accumulates alongside each additional layer of the cold curse. (Every additional Cold Season Poisonous Fish that appears will increase the amount of cold season absorbed by 20%) Once there is a sufficient amount of the cold season power, the sea demon's bloodline power can be used to substantially boost a precious instrument.

After checking on them, Lin Yuan said, "Frigid, you have always wanted to evolve into the independent sea. You never wanted to remain as a water lifeform. Your chance is here!"
