2686 Appearance of the Barren Beast!
It was considered a stellar dragon-species fey.

Long Tao’s Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus and two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes were a far cry from Blackie!

Blackie was now a true main dragon, and a remarkable one at that.

Blackie let out a grand and drawn-out dragon cry next to Lin Yuan as before, twisting and circling above his head.

Thick black clouds gathered above the arena.

Blackie let out another roar.

As a water-type main dragon, Blackie’s bloodline power could exert pressure on the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus and two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes.

The Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus’ aura lost its vigor.

Dragon-species feys competed with each other in terms of their bloodlines. Blackie promptly took control of the sea created by the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus.

The Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus could still use its abilities and exclusive skills but could not use the sea to put pressure on Blackie.

Although Blackie’s voice was very gentle, it loved battling.

However, Blackie rarely had the opportunity to do combat in the past. Lin Yuan usually used Spirit Essence Explosion to attack as though he was a fey in human form.

Now that Lin Yuan had released Blackie, it finally had the chance to take on enemies with its real body!

Most of Blackie’s abilities were support-type, but it also had controlling abilities.

Without Lin Yuan giving it an instruction, Blackie released a stream of dragon aura.

Blackie’s Diamond ability, Spirit Wrath, could dry up the spirit qi in an area and leave the target in an environment devoid of spirit qi.

In an instant, the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus and two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes lost access to the spirit qi around them.

This caused Long Tao’s chest to tighten. It had been a long time since he last felt this way.

Although he still represented the Dragon Gate Guild Club to participate in the S Tournament, Long Tao rarely met opponents that brought out such a feeling in him.

It was Lin Yuan who once again allowed him to feel the anxiousness of facing a strong enemy.

However, Lin Yuan was far too powerful, and Long Tao was momentarily at a loss about what to do next.

Lin Yuan’s pure flood-dragon-species fey had become a true main dragon. It was the five-clawed dragon, which was the rarest and most powerful type of clawed dragon.

The bloodline pressure of this fey on his three feys was already enough to overwhelm him.

The two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes had already lost their fighting spirit, and the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus could only defend but dared not advance.

Long Tao had initially intended to attack first and put some pressure on Lin Yuan.

However, Lin Yuan managed to overwhelm him by just summoning his fey.

Long Tao did not stop issuing orders to the two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes and forced them to release another shower of rain.

Just as Lin Yuan was about to give Blackie an order, Blackie said seriously, “Lin Yuan, I would like the chance to battle freely. I have the confidence to beat these three!”

Lin Yuan did not turn down Blackie’s suggestion and said softly, “Blackie, since you want to battle freely, then go ahead and do your best!”

After hearing this, Blackie used Spirit Judgment Imprisonment.

Spirit Judgment Imprisonment was directed at a target and would make a judgment about the concentration of the target’s spirit qi. If Blackie’s spirit qi was more concentrated than that of the target, the spirit qi in the target’s body would be sealed.

Once a fey’s spiritual power was sealed and was unable to sense the interaction of spirit qi in the surroundings, it would become groundless. It would not even be able to defend against elemental energy!

Long Tao was completely unfamiliar with Blackie’s abilities. After Blackie used Spirit Judgment Imprisonment on the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus, it froze.

Blackie could not be bothered with the two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes that did not even have any more desire to battle.

Blackie slowly flew over as spirit qi condensed on its claws.

It pushed its claws downwards and hit the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus’ back.
A terrifying-dragon-species fey’s strong suit was defense.

Blackie’s attack was not lethal, and many spectators did not think much of it. They assumed that Lin Yuan’s main dragon was just warming up.

Yet, explosions were suddenly heard from the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus’ back.

Because of these two attacks, the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus’ body shape had been altered, and it landed heavily in the water.

Blood-stained water began spreading out from where the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus’ body lay.

As Lin Yuan sensed Blackie’s attacks, he knew that Blackie had used Spirit Essence Explosion to explode the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus’ back and internal organs.

Although the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus still seemed to be alive, its vitality would soon run out, and it would be unable to participate in the ensuing battle!

Blackie could not be bothered with the two Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes, but it did not forget that this was Lin Yuan’s battle.

Spirit qi gathered on Blackie’s tail and slammed it on the Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes like a whip, crushing their bodies to pieces.

Lin Yuan’s lips twitched when he saw this.

Blackie was a flood-dragon-species fey, but its battle style was even more vicious than that of terrifying-dragon-species feys!

Blackie had easily eliminated three of Long Tao’s feys. If Long Tao wanted to continue battling, the only option he had left would be to summon his fey with the Barren bloodline.

Blackie was about to attack Long Tao before it was stopped by Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan believed that Long Tao wanted to summon the fey with the Barren bloodline in this battle!

Lin Yuan, who was in the midst of the battle, had no idea that Blackie’s graceful battle display had sent all the Star Web live-streaming rooms into a frenzy of comments.

As Lin Yuan’s exclusive reporter, Tian Ningning smiled wryly at Blackie before asking questions to the old woman next to her.

The feys that Long Tao contracted had records as he had used them in previous battles.

However, his feys’ powers had all increased. They needed to observe the battle to discern what abilities and exclusive skills the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus and Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes had gained!

Yet, Long Tao’s three feys had not had the chance to demonstrate their abilities before they were all killed.

There could only be one possibility for this, which was that Lin Yuan’s main-dragon-species fey was Suzerain/Myth II, but its level and power exceeded that of Long Tao’s three feys!

Lin Yuan had never used this main-dragon-species fey before, but it was clearly not a fey with the Barren bloodline.

Tian Ningning asked the elderly woman respectfully, “Lordess Shen, are you able to explain Lord Lin Yuan’s fey to me so I can write the battle record?”

Shen He relaxed her furrowed brow and said with a bitter smile, “This clawed dragon killed Long Tao’s three feys with a few simple attacks. It didn’t show enough of its powers. I can’t analyze its exact abilities for you. But I can tell you one thing, which is that it is definitely extraordinary! If I hadn’t seen it for myself, I wouldn’t have believed that it only became a five-clawed dragon when it evolved to Myth Breed! I am more curious to know how Lord Lin Yuan managed to nurture this fey.”

Tian Ningning’s lips twitched, but she dared not rebuke this pinnacle Class 4 Creation Master Shen He.

However, she really wanted give Shen He a reminder.

Lordess Shen He, you have gone off-topic! Don’t forget that you are here to help our special teams write our reports!

Lin Yuan looked at Long Tao. By now, Long Tao had summoned the Reef Sturgeon and was standing on its back.

The Reef Sturgeon was just floating on the blood-soaked sea. Long Tao had only summoned three feys to start with because he wanted to conserve spiritual power.

But now, all three of them had been killed almost instantaneously by Lin Yuan! Long Tao had barely used any of the energy in his body.

Long Tao met Lin Yuan’s gaze without feeling even the slightest hint of disappointment. His eyes were filled with amazement and respect for Lin Yuan’s power.

“Ah Yuan, I have already evolved it to Suzerain X/pinnacle Myth II. I actually have you to thank for this!”

Lin Yuan knew that Long Tao was about to reveal his fey with the Barren bloodline!

Lin Yuan had also invited Long Tao to the gathering two days ago. But Long Tao had been unable to attend because he was in the middle of a critical period of evolving his fey with the Barren bloodline’s bloodline.

Lin Yuan had sent Long Tao pure water-elemental energy concocted in the Element Well as well as a water-type elemental doll.

It seemed that Long Tao had been successful!

There were strong spiritual fluctuations rippling out from Long Tao’s body. Lin Yuan immediately sensed the strong aura that was unique to feys with the Barren bloodline.

A giant fish that was six meters long and had speckled bird wings and shiny gold scales appeared in the sea with a flash.

Tens of whirlpools immediately appeared on the surface of the sea. It was as though there was an eye staring out of the center of every whirlpool.

From the fey’s graceful and swan-like appearance, Lin Yuan knew what Long Tao’s fey with the Barren bloodline was.

The Victory Fish was the most mystical water-type fey with the Barren bloodline.

The Victory Fish was recorded in the Catalog of Mountains and Seas.

“Victory Fish, with the body of a fish and wings of a bird, it has a voice of mandarin ducks, and seeing one is akin to looking at a settlement of water.”

It was said that the Victory Fish could predict fortunes but it was a beast of disaster. Water-related calamities followed it wherever it went!

At first, Blackie had managed to overwhelm the Sea King Chalk Mosasaurus and Deep Blue Dragon Jellyfishes with its bloodline power, thereby taking control of the sea.

But with the appearance of the Victory Fish, Blackie’s control over the water had decreased significantly.

However, as a clawed dragon, and a five-clawed dragon to boot, there was no guarantee that Blackie would lose control of the water to the Victory Fish!

As long as the Victory Fish did not take full control of the water, its threat to Lin Yuan would be significantly discounted!

Lin Yuan did not know where the Victory Fish was hiding in the water, so he used True Data to scan through the water. He immediately discovered the Victory Fish’s location.

[Fey Name]: Victory Fish

[Fey Species]: Barren-species/winged-fish species

[Fey Grade]: Suzerain (10/10)

[Fey Type]: Water

[Fey Quality]: Myth II

Abilities:

[Mandarin Duck Voice]: In order to generate vibrations, a fish roar will be released with the voice of mandarin ducks. Those who hear this voice will become paralyzed, and there is also a chance that the listener’s soul will be put to sleep.

[Curtain of Wings]: The two wings will dissolve into the water and absorb water-elemental energy to produce an enormous curtain of wings that can defend against external damage. As long as the curtain of wings is not damaged, external damage will be absorbed and transformed into energy that can be stored.

[Sea Disaster]: The water will be flooded with curse power, and the lifeforms within the cursed water will be drained to boost the Victory Fish’s power.

[Victory Arrow]: The body will turn into a bow, and the two wings will become the string. The water will form a sharp arrow that can penetrate the target. The penetrated target will be cursed.

[Heavenly Water Stamp]: A heavenly water stamp can be formed on any target that is within a body of water that is also in contact with the Victory Fish. Each time the target’s energy is replenished, the Victory Fish’s energy will also be replenished. When the target uses up its energy, the Victory fish can choose to also use up some of its energy to lower its own drain of energy.

[Victorious Water Mist]: The Victory Fish’s energy will be used up and released via the water. The water will transform into mist. When the Victory Mist is within the mist, it will be healed by the water. Any injured targets within the mist will also be healed.

[Victorious Body Transformed Arrows]: The Victory Fish’s body will be sacrificed and transformed into arrows. The arrows will attack a target. Its curse effects will also be transformed into deadly effects and applied to the arrows.

Exclusive Skill:

[Revived Wings]: When the wings are transformed into a curtain of wings, new ones can be grown. As long as the curtain of wings exists, the energy required to grow the new wings will be lowered by half.

[Double Life Arrows]: Each time the curtain of wings and the transformation of the Victory Fish’s body into arrows to attack a target is in effect, the attacks will absorb the energy from the surroundings and split up, causing double the damage.

[Victory Forms Secret Stone]: Before the body is deconstructed, a victory stone will be formed in the fish’s stomach. The victory stone will absorb curse energy from the surroundings, and the Victory Fish can be reincarnated through the victory stone.

After reading the Victory Fish’s True Data, Lin Yuan felt that the Victory Fish’s abilities were just as impressive as that of Zong Ze’s Fiery Sky Hou!

Although it was not as well-rounded as Shiny’s’ abilities, its capability of taking on many enemies at once was the strongest that Lin Yuan had ever seen from a fey!

Mandarin Duck Voice’s paralyzing effect was rather common. It would be easy to use blessing effects to neutralize paralyzing effects.

However, its true controlling effects came from the possibility of it putting a soul to sleep.

Putting a soul to sleep was not the same as putting the spirit to sleep. When the spirit was asleep, it could be awakened by external forces. But once the soul was asleep, only the support from feys that had awakening abilities would be effective. It would be very difficult for the soul to wake up on its own.

It was just unlucky for Long Tao and the Victory Fish that Lin Yuan had two souls and that the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen was able to protect his souls.

Although Lin Yuan would be paralyzed by Mandarin Duck Voice, his soul would not be put to sleep.

The abilities that Lin Yuan was truly interested in were Curtain of Wings and Revived Wings.

Curtain of Wings was an extremely strong defensive and endurance ability.

The Victory Fish only had one pair of wings, so it could only produce one Curtain of Wings.

But if it used Revived Wings as well, the Victory Fish would be able to control many Curtain of Wings.
