2798 Morbius Awakens!
Dark Blue had gained two new abilities: Water Vein Block and Faith Shackle.

Water Vein Block activated Dark Blue’s bloodline energy. The stronger Dark Blue’s bloodline was, the more potent this ability’s effects would be.

Dark Blue used its bloodline power to trigger water-elemental energy and combined it with the water attributes under its control.

The block around Sky Sea not only provided Sky Sea with mobility through the water attributes, but it could also defend Sky Sea.

Dark Blue, Sky Sea, and Gray protected the main institute of Sky City together. Sky Sea was the vessel, Gray provided concealment, and Dark Blue covered defense.

Water Vein Block improved Dark Blue’s ability to carry out its defense duty.

As for Faith Shackle, Faith Application, and Faith Gift or Robbery, they were all the same type of abilities.

Dark Blue had gained the ability to control faith power when it reached Gold grade. As its grade continued to evolve, its ability to control faith power also grew stronger.

Both Faith Application and Faith Gift or Robbery tapped into Dark Blue’s utilization of its faith power.

Faith Shackle allowed Dark Blue to be linked to a target with the same bloodline power. The two parties’ faith power would be added together before being compared to another target. If the combined faith power was greater than that of the target, the target would lose the ability to receive and manipulate the faith power in its body.

At the Divine Kingdom level, the feys’ abilities were linked to their manipulation of faith power. Additionally, many of their abilities and exclusive skills relied on faith power as well.

If Faith Shackle only linked Dark Blue to another mermaid, the ability’s value would be greatly discounted because the strongest mermaid in Lin Yuan’s camp was Dazzling Silver.

Lin Yuan did not intend to take Samsara Realm mermaids like Dazzling Silver, Blue Umber, Light Green Umber, and Red Beauty to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

After the main world was linked to the dimensional worlds, the mermaids became another one of the main world’s species, and emperor-class mermaids like Dazzling Silver, Light Green Umber, Blue Umber, and Red Beauty needed to protect their species.

If Lin Yuan took the water world’s mermaids’ strongest pillars of strength with him to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, the mermaids might be able to continue living peacefully in the main world at first. But as time continued to pass, they would eventually go extinct.

Lin Yuan had the mermaid bloodline in his body and was a mermaid thearch who had received the worship of the mermaids. He did not want to see such a thing happen.

Lin Yuan’s mermaid bloodline came from Dark Blue. It could use Faith Shackle to link its faith power to that of Lin Yuan and use his faith power to seal the target’s faith power.

Lin Yuan’s divine kingdom was very different from the divine kingdoms of other experts.

Lin Yuan’s divine kingdom contained an enormous amount of faith power. If it was used to seal targets, even pinnacle Divine Kingdom lifeforms would be no match for him.

This was a very powerful technique for restraining enemies.

Dark Blue’s exclusive skill, Power Water Soul, enabled Dark Blue to absorb 12 types of Willpower Runes. It could be said that Power Water Soul gave Dark Blue endless potential.

Dark Blue’s other three exclusive skills were just as impressive as Power Water Soul.

Undepleted Clean Water allowed Dark Blue to use its water-elemental energy to become extremely resistant to other water-elemental energy. It would no longer be affected by other elements in special environments. Additionally, its water-elemental energy would no longer be used up unnecessarily.

Dark Blue would no longer be affected by other elemental abilities. However, it would be able to restrain the other elements that used to affect it.

In an environment with curses, poison, or contamination, Dark Blue would be immune to such defilement.

An elemental-type fey was the most afraid of its body becoming tainted.

This self-cleansing ability was a self-preservation ability for Dark Blue.

Disorientation Water Territory also involved Dark Blue using its elemental power. It would use its water-elemental energy to block the aura within the territory. It could also cover the internal energy fluctuations.

When enemies entered this area, they would become disoriented. In its disoriented state, the target would lose the ability to move. This would make it easier for Sky Sea to use the abilities on its back to eliminate the target.

This ability would not be very useful against stronger experts than Dark Blue. However, it would be very effective against groups.

As opposed to Undepleted Clean Water and Water Disorientation Territory, Lin Yuan was more interested in All Water Surging Tides, which could be seen as Dark Blue’s endurance ability. However, it was far from being as simple as an endurance ability.

This exclusive skill required Dark Blue to compare its body’s water-elemental energy with its environment.

It would only be able to absorb the water-elemental energy in the environment if its water-elemental energy was purer than that of the environment.

It could use the water-elemental energy in the surroundings to heal its injuries and replenish its depleted energy.

If this exclusive skill appeared for other feys, it would be virtually useless because there were very few other feys that could be confident that their water-elemental energy would be purer than that of the environment.

Elemental energy only took up a small proportion in the bodies of flesh feys. Comparing the elemental energy in their body to that of the environment would cause them to come up against many obstacles. It would be very easy for them to be interrupted by other feys’ abilities.
The water-elemental energy in Dark Blue’s body was close to 100% purity. Even if it was affected by other powerful water-type feys, the water-elemental energy in its body would still be stronger than the environment’s.

Gray’s rainy day weather and the water elemental aura spewed from Sky Sea’s body nourished Dark Blue daily. As a result, Dark Blue was almost never in an uncomfortable environment.

Dark Blue’s main duty was to defend Sky Sea.

When the outside world attacked Dark Blue, it could use All Water Surging Tides to heal its injuries effectively.

Lin Yuan once again took out numerous resources and gave them to Dark Blue and Gray.

He then left Spring behind to watch Dark Blue, Gray, and Sky Sea while he returned to the Radiance Federation.

This was because, once Lin Yuan was done nurturing Sky Sea, Morbius woke up.

Since Lin Yuan did not ask Morbius to spirit-lock new feys, its grade had not changed.

However, its appearance had changed drastically.

Morbius on Lin Yuan’s wrist had been completely redesigned.

The indentations meant to be filled with the Endless Gems had disappeared. In their place were simple totems and designs that changed constantly. If the totem patterns were closely examined, one would see that they were forming shapes of many of the world’s entities.

There were six new indentations below the bracelet. They were empty, just like when Lin Yuan had just contracted Morbius.

Morbius’ voice echoed in Lin Yuan’s ear.

The way Morbius’ voice was transmitted to him took Lin Yuan by surprise.

Normally, Morbius communicated with him through his soul. This was the first time that Morbius was communicating with him in real life.

Lin Yuan looked up and saw a young man with the same features as his own, wearing a rust-colored half-armor, standing in front of him.

At that moment, Lin Yuan suddenly felt as though he was looking into a mirror.

However, upon closer look, it could be seen that this young man, who greatly resembled him, had cold and sharp eyes. These were very different from Lin Yuan’s own eyes.

When Morbius saw Lin Yuan looking at it, it walked forward and hugged him before saying gently yet coldly, “Partner, after all these years apart, I am finally awake!”

Lin Yuan’s tone was one of delight as he said, “Morbius, you were completely silent. I thought you were going to sleep for even longer! After waking up this time, you can finally change into human form!”

Morbius could sense the joy in Lin Yuan’s voice and smiled.

“Partner, you have been collecting spirit qi crystals from the main world and working so hard on your own. Now, you don’t need to work so hard alone. I can go to help you! I can finally change into human form and no longer need to appear as a soul. I can now carry out tasks in your stead! You can divert your effort and energy into more important things.”

Lin Yuan could be concerned about anyone, but he would never be concerned about Morbius. To him, Morbius was as good as a clone.

If Morbius represented him to head to the Startling Lines Continent to help the lifeforms evolve and harvest spirit qi crystals, it would be extremely good news for Lin Yuan!

However, regardless of whether Morbius was able to help him harvest spirit qi crystals, Lin Yuan would have to go to the Radiance Federation in person.

Now that Morbius was awake, Lin Yuan was prepared to head to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Since the dead spirits crisis, the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting had not been held in a long time.

For the past ten years, every member of the Astronomical Parliament had grown to varying degrees.

Lin Yuan felt it was high time to hold an Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting.

Liu Jie had helped Wen Yu, Gu Lang, Zong Ze, and the rest of his friends increase their strength, as well as the strength of the Radiance Federation’s royalty.

However, Lin Yuan had not helped any of the members of the Astronomical Parliament increase their strength, even members like Su Yiren and Bei Xu, whom he intended to take with him to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

Lin Yuan did this because he wanted to give them time to grow.

After all the growth they had gone through, they were now clearer about the choices they were going to make.

Lin Yuan never felt that the members of the Astronomical Parliament he nurtured needed to follow in his footsteps.

Take Yin Lin as an example; she was the daughter of the Azure Cloud Leopard family. She was an undeniable elite. Later, she became an Azure Envoy, thereby becoming a key part of the Azure Federation’s future.

She needed to consider carefully before deciding whether she would be heading to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

If she went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, she might be able to return to the main world, but she would not be able to do so for a very long time.

If Yin Lin truly wanted to head to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, she would have to cut off all her ties to the main world.

More than ten years had passed. It was likely that Yin Lin had made her decision about whether she was leaving or staying.

This Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting would be both a welcoming of the members and also a goodbye to the members who would not be going to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

…

When Lin Yuan went to the Radiance Federation, the first thing he did was visit the Moon Empress.

Lin Yuan never verbally expressed his respect toward the Moon Empress. Rather, he demonstrated it through his actions.

Lin Yuan only returned to the Return from Faraway Mansion half a day after staying in the Radiant Moon Palace.

Wen Yu and Liu Jie were waiting there.

When Wen Yu made the suggestion, she knew that Lin Yuan would agree to hold the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting.

While the members of the Astronomical Parliament were communicating with Wen Yu, even Su Yiren, who was the most composed of the group, asked Wen Yu for information.

Wen Yu knew that Su Yiren and the rest were afraid Lin Yuan would abandon them when he departed.

Lin Yuan had been too busy in the past ten years. Hence, his communication with Wen Yu and Liu Jie was no longer as intimate as it used to be.

Thus, it was inevitable for the members of the Astronomical Parliament who relied on Lin Yuan to lose a sense of security.

After all, they were not like Liu Jie and Wen Yu, who were the backbone of Sky City and were helping Lin Yuan to manage Sky City. The two of them knew Lin Yuan would take them with him to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

However, Su Yiren, Bei Xu, and the rest did not have this confidence.

Wen Yu had yet to respond to their covert questions because it should be Lin Yuan who made the decision and not her.

Wen Yu would never make a decision on Lin Yuan’s behalf.

In truth, Wen Yu could not be fully certain of Lin Yuan’s decision.

Lin Yuan did have the ability to help spirit qi professionals increase their strength, but he had yet to use this ability on Sky City’s other members.

It was likely that this Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting would allow many of Lin Yuan’s decisions to come to light.

Among the Astronomical Parliament’s members, Wen Yu believed that Lin Yuan would most likely take only Su Yiren, Bei Xu, and Luo Lan with him.

If this was more than ten years ago, Wen Yu would only be certain that Peace and Ta Lei would not be heading to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

But now, she had added Yin Lin, Bu Po, and Wo Lun to the list.

For Yin Lin, it was because she had become increasingly focused on the Azure Federation. She was stuck between her family’s honor and responsibility. Hence, she had no choice but to make such a decision.

As one grew older, they also matured. Yin Lin was no exception.

In terms of her decision-making, Yin Lin was becoming increasingly similar to Xia Qing.

Wen Yu greatly respected Yin Lin’s decision, albeit it would cause her to lose the opportunity to transform.

Bu Po’s obsession with his sister was becoming clearer by the day. If he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he would definitely ask Lin Yuan to take his sister as well.

Unfortunately, Bu Po’s sister did not have any spirit qi professional potential and was a regular person.

Bu Po had once asked Wen Yu for a Lifespan Mouse for his sister, but Wen Yu had turned him down.
