Lin Xin's Fire Phoenix Spiritual Stove gave his companions a big surprise, but he himself was not so comfortable.
The stronger the spiritual stove, the stronger the backlash. Cai 'er's Spiritual Stove of Samsara was the best proof. Although Lin Xin's Fire Phoenix Spiritual Stove could not be compared to the Spiritual Stove of Samsara, it was still a rank one spiritual stove. It would evolve along with Lin Xin's strength.
After the return of the Fire Phoenix, Lin Xin felt as if all the spiritual energy in his body had been sucked dry in an instant. The intense burning sensation made his whole body heat up, and he hurriedly sat down cross-legged, concentrating on resisting the burning of the Heart Flame. This Heart Flame was burning from the inside out. One could only imagine the taste of it. Moreover, this burning would last for a full twelve hours. In itself, it wouldn't cause too much harm to Lin Xin, and could even increase his affinity with the fire element, tempering his body. However, the pain of this process was extremely intense. If he could endure for twelve hours, he would probably lose a layer of skin.
However, Lin Xin's current state of mind was very good. This was the first time he tried using the Fire Phoenix Spiritual Stove. He did not expect it to be so powerful. Even though he was suffering from a strong backlash, his heart was still filled with ecstasy. As the saying goes, people are in high spirits when they encounter happy events. In this state, he felt that the pain was not as intense.
With the Fire Phoenix's powerful attack, it gave Long Haochen and the others enough time to breathe. With Yating's help, Long Haochen's spiritual power and stamina were quickly recovering.
Although the Zombie King was sent flying out of the mountainside, Long Haochen's perception still followed it, feeling the changes after it was attacked.
Long Haochen was pleasantly surprised to find that the power of the Fire Phoenix released by Lin Xin was extraordinary. The Zombie King's wings were directly burned and there were many serious burns on its body. The injuries were not light. Moreover, the Fire Phoenix did not only attack a single target, it also had an area of effect. Among the Elite Zombies in the area, the Iron Zombie and Copper Zombie couldn't hold on and were turned into ashes. Although the Gold and Silver Zombies fared better, there were still different parts of their bodies that had melted.
This was a true Magician, with super high damage.
Long Haochen was slightly better. As the leader of the team, even if he was excited, he would not show it. However, Han Yu could not help but laugh out loud. "Brother Yao, you've finally exploded! You really make me want to cry!"
Lin Xin fiercely glared at him, full of disdain, thinking to himself, Are you crying now? Why was he smiling so happily? However, the backlash from the Spiritual Stove made him unable to speak at all. He could only use his eyes to take revenge.
"Roar —"
At this moment, suddenly, a shrill roar was heard. The zombies that were charging towards the mountainside without fear of death suddenly stopped when they heard the roar and did not continue to jump forward.
The one who let out the roar was the Zombie King who had been severely injured. It seemed to be enraged and felt the fear of the fatal threat. Most importantly, its target was not these humans. If it could not destroy the evolving Haoyue, it would definitely be punished by the Undead Monarch Council. It could vaguely feel that Haoyue's evolution was almost complete.
The Zombie King did not charge towards the mountainside anymore. Instead, he suddenly turned around and with a roar, he suddenly spat a thick, dark green mist at his zombie minions.
No matter what kind of zombie it was, it would immediately melt like snow in the mist after coming into contact with it.
The Elite Zombies with some intelligence scattered in all directions when they saw the Zombie King spitting out the mist. On the other hand, ordinary zombies did not have any intelligence and could only turn into corpse water under the mist. The corpse water was like a stream, flowing towards the Zombie King.
As the number of zombies that came into contact with the dark green mist increased, the area it covered also kept increasing. The corpse water that flowed to the Zombie King's feet would immediately fuse with its body and repair the damage on its body at a crazy speed. What was more terrifying was that its body was also growing rapidly as the corpse water fused with it.
Although Wang Yuanyuan and Han Yu did not have strong senses like Long Haochen, they could still see the thick, dark green mist and the Zombie King's growling. They could clearly see it.
Both of them looked at Long Haochen at the same time, their eyes filled with questions.
Long Haochen turned his head and looked into the depths of the cave. Haoyue's breathing seemed to be getting heavier. It was obvious that it was a critical moment. On the other hand, the Zombie King was fusing with its zombie minions to increase its strength. Even if it was a natural counter, once its strength was above the Ninth Tier, Long Haochen and the rest might not be able to withstand a single blow. Lin Xin's Fire Phoenix obviously could not be used a second time.
He definitely could not allow it to complete its strength increase. At this moment, even a slight hesitation could lead to the annihilation of the entire team.
With a flash of golden light, another figure appeared beside him. It was Cai'Er who had been waiting for a long time in the Tower of Eternity.
Previously, Long Haochen did not summon Cai'Er to his side because he needed her help to defend and not attack. Now, it was time for a strong attack.
"Cai'Er, follow me and stop the zombie from gathering its strength. Han Yu, Yuanyuan, guard the cave entrance. "
As Long Haochen spoke, he had already rushed out. The four wings on his back flapped with all his might and he went straight for the Zombie King. The dazzling golden light rose to the extreme in an instant. It was like a golden sun that appeared in front of the Zombie King in an instant.
At the same time that Long Haochen rushed out, Yating's body also flashed with a golden light and disappeared into thin air. When she reappeared, she was behind Long Haochen.
When Long Haochen flew out, the Brilliant Holy Shield had already been kept back into the Eternal Melody. At this moment, he held Holy Retribution with both hands and infused it with all his internal spiritual power. The Holy Sword skill of Holy Retribution instantly increased to the extreme. The thick white incandescence was filled with sharp killing intent.
What was even more shocking was that Long Haochen's body actually showed the same white incandescence as the Holy Sword. Even the four wings on his back were the same. Wherever the thick white light passed, the thick dark green fog in the air was quickly purified.
The Zombie King clearly felt a fatal threat. With a furious roar, a pair of incomparably thick arms smashed down at Long Haochen.
In the process of continuously absorbing the corpse water, its body became bigger and bigger. The terrifying power even caused a series of sonic booms as it swung its arms. It could be seen how terrifying its strength was.
Long Haochen didn't clash head-on with it. He used the Nine Dragon Steps and his figure flashed to the side. At the same time, he held Holy Retribution with both hands and raised it above his head.
Yating's body swayed and actually turned into a golden stream of light that landed on Holy Retribution. Suddenly, the incandescent Holy Retribution actually emitted a layer of dark golden flames.
However, Holy Retribution also let out a low buzzing sound as if it was lamenting. Even with its Radiance grade material, it seemed to be unable to withstand the dark golden flames.
After missing its attack, the Zombie King instantly turned around and was faced with a brazen heavy sword slashing down.
When the sword slashed down, Long Haochen's entire body seemed to be slightly distorted. Wang Yuanyuan and Han Yu, who had slashed down from the mountainside, only felt as if a ray of light had appeared in this dark world. The rich aura of light seemed to purify the entire space.
Boom!
Holy Retribution slashed down on the Zombie King's raised arms. Amidst a violent roar, a terrifying scene appeared. Holy Retribution, an extremely high-quality heavy sword with the ability to absorb souls, was actually shattered just like that. Long Haochen was also sent flying by the terrifying power of the Zombie King.
However, the Zombie King didn't feel good either. After the violent collision, there was a teeth-numbing "pfft" sound, as if boiling oil had been poured on ice.
One could clearly see that the Zombie King's arms, which were as hard as steel and had extremely terrifying power, were actually melting. Intense dark golden flames almost instantly engulfed the Zombie King's body. The surrounding thick green fog that came into contact with the flames almost instantly dissipated, no longer able to devour the ordinary zombies in the distance. What was even more terrifying was that the dark golden flames could actually increase on their own, quickly spreading throughout the Zombie King's body.
"Roar — —" A mournful roar came from the Zombie King's mouth. It frantically slapped the dark golden flames on its body, trying to extinguish them. It even continuously spat out dark green liquid on the flames. However, no matter what it did, it only made the dark golden flames burn more places.
Although Long Haochen seemed to have suffered a great loss in that attack, he still managed to stain a bit of the dark golden flames on the Zombie King's forehead. Even if it wanted to cut off its arm, it couldn't do so.
Long Haochen fell to the ground in the distance, blood spurting out of his mouth. His arms hung limply by his side, obviously dislocated. Blood flowed from the webbing between his thumb and forefinger. It looked very miserable. However, not a single zombie dared to come up and attack him.
After the Light Retribution shattered, Yating once again revealed her true form and floated next to Long Haochen. Her face was also very pale, showing how much energy she had expended in that attack.
After becoming a Chosen, Long Haochen obtained some special abilities that belonged to a Chosen. These abilities were all related to the Goddess of Light. Previously, his ability to turn his body incandescent was called Spirit Burning. It burned his spiritual energy and soul to give himself the greatest boost. In fact, this Skill was even more powerful than his original Sacrifice Skill. However, the side effects of Spirit Burning were also great. After using it once, Long Haochen would be weak for at least seven days. If he used it too much, it would even cause his own strength to greatly decrease and even endanger his life.
The dark golden flames were actually an evolved ability that belonged to Yating. After she obtained her true form, she didn't change the special characteristics of her energy body. She could transform herself into the purest and densest light element and fuse with any of Long Haochen's weapons. She would temporarily become the weapon's weapon spirit and ignite the weapon's most basic power to attack. In other words, a weapon would be destroyed after using it once, unless its quality was high enough to accommodate a weapon spirit of Yating's level.
Long Haochen knew that with his current cultivation, it would be impossible for him to defeat the Zombie King. The Zombie King was most afraid of his attributes, not his combat ability. Thus, he relied on Spirit Burning and Yating's help to raise his light attribute to the limit. Even if the real Goddess of Light was here, the light element she controlled would not be any purer than Long Haochen's attack.
Although the Zombie King was powerful, in the face of this absolute suppression of attributes, it still suffered irreparable damage. It wasn't its body that was heavily injured, but its soul.
A pitch-black figure silently appeared in the air above the Zombie King's head. Immediately afterward, a monstrous killing intent mixed with a gray light flashed by. An instant later, the black figure strangely split into two. One stopped in midair and slowly dissipated, while the other landed next to Long Haochen like a bolt of lightning. It quickly pushed his arm back to its original position.
"How are you able to use the Spiritual Stove of Samsara?" Long Haochen cried out in alarm.
The Zombie King had already fallen into a daze. It no longer roared or struggled. Then, it slowly collapsed to the ground. The dark golden flames had lost their resistance and quickly spread across its entire body.
The Zombie King was worthy of its title as an Undead Monarch. Even though its spirit fire had already been extinguished, its body did not immediately turn to ash. Instead, it continued to burn.
The zombies in the distance lost their king and felt the terrifying light. They no longer had the will to fight and scattered in all directions.
Cai 'er helped Long Haochen stand up. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
Long Haochen carefully looked at her and said in a low voice, "Which sense did you lose this time?"
Cai 'er giggled and said, "I didn't lose any sense. Wait, who is she?" As she spoke, she turned to Yating, who was floating next to Long Haochen and asked, "Who is she?"
To Long Haochen's surprise, Yating obediently came forward and said, "Mistress, I'm Yating, Master's Light Elemental Spirit. After Master's Spiritual Stove Fusion, my energy body materialized and became like this. "
Cai 'er was shocked and said, "You're Yating?"
Cai 'er looked at Cai' er and then at Long Haochen. Her expression was obviously unhappy.
Although Long Haochen had expected this situation, he did not expect it to happen so quickly. He quickly changed the topic and said, "Is the Zombie King dead?"
Cai 'er nodded and said, "My Spiritual Stove of Samsara is the best at purging these kinds of souls. It is extremely harmful to undead creatures. Moreover, it was baptized by your Holy Flame. Its soul was already heavily injured. "
After being summoned by Long Haochen, Cai 'er immediately became invisible and followed Long Haochen, waiting for an opportunity. When she saw Long Haochen's body burn with white light, she understood that he had a way to deal with the Zombie King, which was why she did not act immediately.
When the Zombie King was heavily injured by Long Haochen's Holy Flame, Cai 'er activated the Spiritual Stove of Samsara and combined it with the Sword of Samsara to deal a fatal blow to the Zombie King, completely extinguishing its Soul Fire. No matter how strong its physical body was, a Zombie King that had lost its soul would become a Zombie King.
Without the threat of the Zombie King, the two of them returned to the cave halfway up the mountain. Han Yu treated Long Haochen's injuries, but the weakness brought about by the Spirit Burning Realm could not be cured. They would have to wait for seven days.
Only then did Long Haochen have the time to tell everyone what had happened.
"I never expected Haoyue to be born in a place like this." Wang Yuanyuan sighed. It was impossible for her to have a good impression of this world, which was full of poisonous gas and undead creatures.
Cai 'er frowned and said, "Long Haochen, what if more undead creatures attack us and we can't hold them off?"
Everyone knew that the Eternal Melody's teleportation would take some time, and they all had similar questions in their hearts, but they did not dare to ask them. Cai 'er, however, had no such qualms. This was related to their next mission and their safety. If something went wrong, their lives would be in danger. This was especially true since everyone was not in a good state.
Lin Xin had suffered from the backlash from the Spiritual Stove of Samsara, and Long Haochen had suffered from the Spirit Burning Realm's backlash. Both of them had lost most of their ability to fight. If they only relied on Cai 'er's group of three, they would be completely wiped out if an expert like the Zombie King appeared, unless Cai' er used the Spiritual Stove of Samsara to its fullest potential.
Long Haochen said in a low voice, "If more powerful undead creatures appear, then we will have no choice but to end Haoyue's evolution. Don't worry, I have the ability to forcefully activate the Eternal Melody and teleport us back to the Tower of Eternity. "
Everyone sighed in relief when they heard this. It was good that they had a backup plan. At the same time, they couldn't help but admire Long Haochen's meticulousness.
Long Haochen said, "It seems that everyone's newly obtained Spiritual Stove of Samsara has gained quite a bit of power. Let's hurry up and tell each other about it. Otherwise, it will affect our overall combat strength and teamwork. "
"Everyone has seen Yating's evolution. She can now speak, and she can fight on her own. She is equivalent to a Light Element Sorcerer, and she can even attach herself to my weapon to attack at a critical moment. It's just that she has to sacrifice that weapon as the price. This kind of attack will also consume Yating's original Light Force, and it will take some time to replenish it. "
Yating's huge role on the battlefield was clearly seen by everyone except Cai 'er. Although her evolution was largely accidental, a large part of it was due to the increase of Fantasy Paradise and the awakening of Long Haochen's God-favored constitution. But now, she could definitely be called a Level One Spiritual Stove. And she was unique.
Perhaps Yating's direct attack and instantaneous attack power couldn't be compared to other Level One Spiritual Stoves, but don't forget that the more powerful the Spiritual Stove, the more powerful the backlash. But what backlash did Yating have? For Long Haochen, she didn't have any backlash at all, and there was no doubt about her growth. She would definitely evolve along with Long Haochen's growth.
Cai 'er seemed to have thought it through. She looked at Yating, who was sitting at the side with a pale face, trying to absorb some of the light elements in this world. She slowly nodded and said, "Yating's evolution will be very useful to our team. In the future, it is equivalent to us having another Light Element Sorcerer and Priest."
Long Haochen said, "What about you? What ability did you evolve after your Spiritual Stove Fusion? You endured so much pain at that time, and it was the fusion of three Spiritual Stoves, so the increase should be not small. "
When Cai 'er heard him mention her Spiritual Stove Fusion, her pretty face immediately turned red, and she couldn't help but recall the embarrassing scene at that time. She fiercely glared at him and said, "You have seen my Spiritual Stove Fusion ability just now."
"You saw it?" Long Haochen looked at her doubtfully.
Cai 'er nodded and said, "My situation is a little special. Rather than saying that it was the fusion of three Spiritual Stoves, it would be better to say that the Spiritual Stove of Samsara swallowed the other two Spiritual Stoves and completed its evolution. I can now use the power of the Spiritual Stove of Samsara once a day without suffering any backlash. This is because the Spiritual Stove I obtained in Dream Paradise is the Spiritual Stove of True Shadow, which can allow my phantom to possess real attack power. After the fusion, when I use the Spiritual Stove of Samsara for the first time every day to activate the Sword of Samsara, I only need to use the Shadow Clone Technique at the same time to bear the backlash of the Spiritual Stove for me. After the fusion, the Spiritual Stove of Samsara can also allow me to use the Thousand Strikes Spiritual Stove attack method through the Sword of Samsara once a day. "
After hearing Cai 'er's explanation, everyone couldn't help but let out a series of gasps, including Long Haochen.
It seemed that after the fusion of three Spiritual Stoves, Cai 'er didn't have much of an increase. She only had her original abilities. However, in reality, the increase in her strength was quite terrifying.
As the number one Spiritual Stove in the world, how terrifying would it be without any backlash? Moreover, she could use the Sword of Samsara to activate the Thousand Strikes Spiritual Stove attack method.
In other words, Cai 'er could use the Sword of Samsara twice a day without suffering any backlash.
The Sword of Samsara was a real artifact. Moreover, it was the number one artifact in the Temple of Assassins. Apart from the Son of Samsara back then, no one had been able to fully unleash its power.
Even Long Haochen, who had awakened and become a God's Favored, didn't dare to say that he could block an attack from Cai 'er's Sword of Samsara.
In terms of overall strength, Cai 'er was no longer comparable to Long Haochen. However, after the fusion of three Spiritual Stoves, her explosive power was undoubtedly the strongest in the team.
Surprisingly, after Cai 'er finished speaking, she didn't sit next to Long Haochen. Instead, she walked to the side.
Wang Yuanyuan and Han Yu's expressions suddenly became a little strange. In their opinion, Cai 'er should be jealous.
However, Long Haochen knew that wasn't the case. Cai 'er was embarrassed because of what happened at the Spiritual Stove Fusion in the Dream Temple. He couldn't persuade her. When he thought of what he saw and touched …
"Han Yu, what about you?" Long Haochen shook his head forcefully to get rid of the thoughts in his mind and changed the topic.
Han Yu said, "The fusion of my two Spiritual Stoves is going well. I have a skill called Light's Blessing. After using it, it will release a light elemental shield with a diameter of five meters. The defensive power of this shield is equivalent to three times his own spiritual power, which is equivalent to the defensive strength of his Divine Block. At the same time, during the process of casting the Protection of Light, the spiritual power of others within the range will recover at a rate 10 times faster than normal until they are completely restored to their peak. "
Long Haochen's eyes lit up. "This ability is great."
Wang Yuanyuan also nodded. "With this ability, our team's spiritual power recovery ability will greatly increase."
Han Yu smiled. "Actually, the best part is that it doesn't backfire. It suits me very well. Otherwise, everyone will be like Lin Xin after using the Spiritual Stove's ability. "
Long Haochen smiled. "I just don't know what the ability will be after Sima and Ying 'er's Spiritual Stove fusion. It's a pity that Yuanyuan didn't have another Spiritual Stove to fuse with. "
Wang Yuanyuan snorted. "Leader, you're like a snake trying to swallow an elephant. Have you ever seen a Demon Hunt Squad where every member has a spiritual stove? We're already very lucky this time. Don't be discontented. And we've all advanced to rank 6. After this time, we can really apply for general-level Monster Hunters. We'll definitely advance to general-level in the shortest time. "
Han Yu smiled. "It should be. Our luck is really good. We also got a lot of merit points this time. After going back, we can rest for a while. There's no need to rush to accept missions. Let's first increase our spiritual power to 5,000 in the fourth and fifth levels of the Tower of Eternity, then we can pass the sixth level. "
In fact, according to their overall strength, they could have passed the sixth level long ago. But in order to better improve everyone's combat power, they had been challenging the red skeleton in the Tower of Eternity alone. Now that Long Haochen had become a God's Oracle, his strength had increased greatly. In a one-on-one situation, he should be able to defeat the red skeleton.
Just as they were talking, suddenly, Long Haochen turned his head and looked towards the distant horizon. He then shouted without hesitation, "Quick, go to Haoyue's side in the cave. We need to leave immediately. "
Just as he was speaking, an extremely terrifying pressure slowly came from afar, and it was growing stronger at an alarming rate. It was as though dark clouds were pressing down on the city.
Be decisive, or you'll be in trouble. Long Haochen was the first to feel the presence of this terrifying aura, and immediately made a decision. They had to leave, otherwise, they would definitely die. The owner of this terrifying aura was at least a rank 9 powerhouse, and it was aimed at them. Even if it meant that Haoyue couldn't complete his evolution, they couldn't care less.
Everyone trusted Long Haochen. Cai 'er helped Long Haochen up, while Han Yu helped Lin Xin. The five of them quickly ran towards the depths of the cave where Haoyue was.
At the same time, the Eternal Melody's golden light shone from Long Haochen's chest.
He hadn't mentioned the price of forcefully using the Eternal Melody before, but he would suffer a backlash from the Eternal Melody. Not only would the Spirit Burning Realm be weakened for a longer period of time, but he would also suffer a considerable amount of pain. At the same time, the Tower of Eternity would lose a large amount of energy, and he would need souls to replenish it.
Of course, because the Eternal Melody had absorbed a large amount of soul energy on the Southguard Pass battlefield, it was able to support this forceful teleportation.
Haoyue itself seemed to sense the threat, and its body trembled violently. Immediately afterwards, a strange scene occurred. There were originally two bulges on each side of its body, but the one on the left suddenly shrank down, while the one on the right suddenly grew and trembled violently.
Just as Long Haochen and the others were about to reach it, the bulge on the right suddenly burst open, and another head popped out. At the same time, Haoyue's body also began to rapidly expand, and in the blink of an eye, it was more than nine meters long. It was truly a colossal creature.
At this moment, outside the cave, a dark blue ball of light was flying towards the cave like a meteor. As it got closer, its size became more and more terrifying. It left a trail of dark blue flames in its wake.
After Haoyue's fourth head popped out, it appeared to be abnormally weak. All four of its heads drooped to the ground and closed their eyes.
Haoyue and Long Haochen were telepathically connected, and it had obviously sensed what Long Haochen wanted to do. It forcefully broke through the fourth head, but the bulge on the other side had also shrunk by at least half. Otherwise, it was very likely that a fifth head would have appeared.
Golden light shone brightly, illuminating the entire cave. The dense light instantly enveloped everyone's bodies. At the same time, Han Yu also released his Spiritual Cauldron of Light, and a layer of golden light enveloped everyone's bodies.
With a flash of golden light, everyone disappeared from the cave.
Three seconds later, the enormous dark blue ball of light descended. The terrifying explosion caused the world of red and black to tremble violently. The mountain had disappeared, and all that was left was a massive crater.
Golden light flashed. Long Haochen and the others appeared outside the Tower of Eternity together with Haoyue. Long Haochen let out a cry and spat out another mouthful of blood. He immediately fainted in Cai 'er's arms. Haoyue also fell into a coma.
Fortunately, the effect of the Eternal Melody was still there, and the wraiths outside the Tower of Eternity did not dare to approach. Cai 'er supported Long Haochen, while Han Yu and Wang Yuanyuan dragged Haoyue, and everyone returned to the Tower of Eternity.
Long Haochen was too tired. Since entering Dream Paradise, his nerves had been in a state of high tension. After a series of fierce battles, the awakening of the Blessed Constitution, the battle against the Rank Eight Zombie King, the first time he used his Spirit Burning ability, Light's Punishment, and finally, he used all his strength to forcibly activate the Eternal Melody to teleport.
It could be said that for several days, he had not really rested. At this time, his body had reached its limit, and fainting was not a bad thing for him. If this continued, he would overdraft his life force.
The only good news was that Chen Ying 'er had already woken up in the Tower of Eternity and was waiting here blankly. Sima Xian was still in a coma.
The effect of Han Yu's Light's Protection was still in effect, and it was not disturbed by the teleportation. Everyone's spiritual power was recovering at an alarming rate, and soon returned to normal. Even the original problem of the Tower of Eternity not being able to recover spiritual power other than the light attribute did not affect the ability of this spiritual stove. As expected of a synthetic spiritual stove.
This time, Long Haochen's coma lasted for a full 12 hours before he woke up, and he still looked very weak. However, they could not continue to stay here, in case someone from the Temple of the Priests came looking for them. If they disappeared for a short period of time, it could be explained as wandering around the city, but it would not work if they disappeared for too long.
Of course, to return to the Southern Guard Pass itself had to go through a troublesome process. Long Haochen and Haoyue had to first return to the space where Haoyue evolved, and then return to the Southern Guard Pass through the Blood Contract between the two. He went back, and then used the Tower of Eternity to teleport his companions out.
Haoyue recovered very quickly, at least much faster than the weak Long Haochen. Long Haochen also understood what happened to Haoyue through the spiritual connection.
It turned out that Haoyue had swallowed a large number of magic crystals during this time, which caused the spiritual power in its body to continue to increase, but it was very heterogeneous. Although it had reached the level where it could evolve, the heterogeneous spiritual power still needed to be purified. This purification process could only be carried out in its original space. This was also the reason why Haoyue left for a longer time this time.
After returning to its own space, Haoyue dug a cave to cultivate on its own. Since it was not a direct breakthrough, it did not need to worry about being discovered by the undead creatures. With the lesson from the time when there were three, its strength had increased again. This time, Haoyue was full of energy, and was prepared to wait until it had completely purified all its spiritual power and was extremely close to a breakthrough before evolving.
However, plans could not keep up with changes. Just as Haoyue continued to purify its spiritual power, Long Haochen's constitution as a God's Favored awakened.
His awakening did not matter, but Haoyue, who had a Blood Contract with him, was immediately affected. Under normal circumstances, this effect would naturally be a good thing, as it could improve Haoyue's strength to a certain extent, especially Light's. However, because Haoyue was purifying its spiritual power, it was very close to evolving. This sudden increase immediately put Haoyue in a dangerous state of evolution.
Originally, Haoyue tried to suppress it, because it was very clear that its spiritual power had not been completely purified, and the time needed to evolve at this time was too long. The undead creatures would not give it such time. However, after trying to suppress it for a period of time, it could not suppress it because it had accumulated too much spiritual power in its body, and it began to evolve. At this time, it had no choice but to seek help from Long Haochen, and could only hope that the undead creatures would come a little slower.
The final result was obviously not satisfactory. Long Haochen had no choice but to activate the Eternal Melody to teleport back, and if Haoyue, who was in the process of evolution, left its space, it was very likely that its life would be in danger. In desperation, it could only give up on the overall evolution, and chose to evolve only half of it, using the purified spiritual power to evolve its fourth head. At the same time, it completely gave up on the impure spiritual power, which was also the reason why it was so weak and the other side of its body had shrunk.
But no matter what, Haoyue's evolution was still half completed, and Long Haochen named its fourth head Xiao Lan.
With this evolution, Haoyue's four heads were slightly different from before, and the protrusions on each head had a certain change. Some were like antlers, some were like bull horns, and the four heads were different. The most peculiar was the newly born Xiao Lan, whose lizard-like head had a protrusion that looked very similar to a butterfly. Moreover, it was unknown if it was because of the forceful breakthrough, but its eyes looked rather weak, as if it was malnourished.
