Qing Gang already carried the name ‘Earth’, and Yu Zi Yu was looking forward to seeing who would carry the name ‘Fire’ next.
However, at this moment, he could not decide who to give the Elemental Flower.
After all, he had many powerful individuals under his command, but only a few were truly trustworthy.
More importantly, the crucial aspect was how to develop the power after becoming an Elemental Lifeform.
A Fire-Attribute Elemental Flower like this one could enable someone to experience rebirth within flames, transforming into a genuine Fire Elemental Lifeform, becoming formless and shapeless existence, yet possessing the most fierce power.
Even among Elemental Lifeform, its combat power would be second to none.
In light of this, it was essential to give it to a qualified individual. If its owner was unable to develop the true power of fire, this precious Elemental Flower would be wasted.
Yu Zi Yu was not sure if he could nurture a similar Elemental Flower himself. He had tried to create another Earth Elemental Flower after Qing Gang consumed one, but he failed to create another.
From this, it could be understood that the Elemental Flower had a high chance of being unique. At least, he should only be able to breed a flower of each element.
As these thoughts crossed his mind, Yu Zi Yu became lost in thought.
[Who should I give it to? What a tough decision.]
…
At nightfall…
The deep night sky seemed particularly dark, as if there was no light. It looked like a calm, deep sea, without a single wave. While there was cold moonlight showering down, it disappeared into the thick mist.
And at this moment…
*Boom, boom, boom…* Suddenly, the ground started quaking, awaking numerous Mutant Beasts.
At this moment, in the far horizon, the dense mist was split in two as if cut by a sharp sword. “Well!?”
Squinting his eyes, Sarcosuchus nesting by a lake slowly raised his head. Faintly, he sensed a familiar aura.
“Has that guy returned?” In a forest, at the center of a world of white woven with countless Spider webs, a Transcendent Spider coldly snorted as a cold and bitter look appeared on her face.
She would never forget the aura of the Honey Badger, the one who beat her black and blue.
Out of all the Mutant Beasts, she had the misfortune of encountering the Honey Badger, who was her natural nemesis.
If it were any other Mutant Beast, even if her Spiritual Energy was suppressed, it would not be able to tear through her white world of Spider webs.
But the Honey Badger was different. He could control lightning, which made him even more overbearing than a Fire-Attribute Transcendent Creature.
Not to mention, Honey Badger did not hold back and severely injured the Transcendent Spider. If not for the mercy of the Divine Tree, she would have been severely injured or dead. As such, she held a deep grudge for Honey Badger, while she would not be able to retaliate because of both of them belonging to the same camp, she held no fondness for Honey Badger.
Meanwhile, Yu Zi Yu, who was rooted at the highest peak of the Himalayan Mountains, slowly looked up as if sensing something.
Soon, his eyes caught sight of a black torrent descending from the horizon.
At the forefront were two colossal beasts, clearing the path, knocking down countless trees along the way. Their appearance was like a calamity, something the forest could not bear.
Between the two colossal beasts were Bull Demon, Armored Wild Boar, White Snake, Golden Monkey, and Honey Badger, five Transcendents advancing side by side.
What was even more eye-catching were the five Mutant Beasts following right behind, whose auras were no way inferior to Bull Demon and the others.
Of the five, three were Azure Wolves, each the size of a calf. Their appearances had not changed from before, but now their bodies were surrounded by fierce winds, as if they had become the embodiment of the wind itself. And their bluish green eyes were glistening with subtle flare.
And the other two were giant Wild Boars, 4-5 meters in height. Unlike the usual Armored Wild Boar, their bodies were muscular, giving them the appearance of armored tanks.
“They’re back!” The corner of Yu Zi Yu’s lips rose into a smile as he looked at the figures of everyone who had returned safely, feeling rather satisfied.
While there was no war without casualties, he was glad that the core members had returned alive. Moreover, to his surprise, five other Mutant Beasts had also become Tier-1 Transcendents.
[How should I put it?] Thinking this, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes began to shimmer.
At this moment, Nine Tails, who was perched on his canopy and seemed to have sensed what was on Yu Zi Yu’s mind, suddenly stating with a chuckle, “Sure enough, it seems like the way of killing is the ultimate path.”
“Haaa…” Yu Zi Yu was slightly taken aback. Feeling the cold and murderous intent in Nine Tails’ words and demeanor, Yu Zi Yu realized her thoughts. [I guess, Nine Tails can’t sit still and cultivate anymore.]
Nonetheless, Yu Zi Yu had no intention of stopping her. After all, combat was indeed the best way for Mutant Beasts to grow, and he had already done his part.
[It’s indeed time to let these creatures be free.]
“Each of the nine Great Beasts possess Innate Talent no less lesser than Humans. If all of them are set loose, it might indeed stir up a true bloody battle.”
With these thoughts in mind, Yu Zi Yu became excited. As far as he was concerned, he especially wanted to see battle, real bloody ones, especially since he needed Evolution Points. Or, to be more accurate, he wanted to see wars. Not just battles between beasts, but also conflicts between Humans and beasts.
Not long ago, when the Mutant Beast tide swept through Human cities, Yu Zi Yu had harvested millions of Evolution Points overnight.
This great harvest had given him a deeper understanding of the word ‘war.’
Now, he did not oppose war, rather he even liked it to some extent.
Of course, the premise was that he had it under control. If he lost control, it would be a different story.
At this moment, Yu Zi Yu also thought about China.
According to the information provided by Qing Er, China was in a state of restlessness. Some extremists even threatened to send a large army to exterminate him. Meanwhile, many small countries around China had formed alliances.
On the Dark Day, the global Mutant Beast tide had devastated several small countries around China.
Small countries like South Korea, Myanmar, and others, the entire nation had called to arms.
However, against the endless tide of beasts, the military power of these countries was ultimately limited.
Several of these countries had turned into havens for Mutant Beasts, while many more small countries were struggling to survive.
In order to survive the Era of Transcendence, these surviving small nations had no choice but to form alliances.
Upon hearing this news, China had sent out a friendly message to the Alliance of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
The implication was clear.
Reportedly, not long after, representatives from both ASEAN and China would meet at the border to discuss alliance matters.
“They want to exterminate me by forming an alliance…” With a cold smile, Yu Zi Yu began to scheme.
An alliance? That was certainly out of the question. Since they wanted him dead, how could he be willing to let some people live in peace? He believed that an unstable border would keep certain individuals in China awake at night.
After all, ASEAN was not as simple as ten countries.
Although they were not strong, they were definitely not weak. Their combined might was enough to threaten China.
Otherwise, China would not have sent friendly messages.
Ashish: ‘Alliance of Southeast Asian Nations’ I know it’s Association, but here I have used Alliance as they have come together again for their survival, which has deeper implications.
