2799 Listen’s Growth!
It was likely that Bu Po’s life goal would be to live peacefully in the main world with his sister.
A regular person had a lifespan of around 130 years. Bu Po still had around 80 to 90 years of life left to enjoy with his sister.
Bu Po was currently the ruler of the Spirit Mother Federation.
From previous matters, Lin Yuan learned that the Spirit Mother Federation had been under Tarot Round Table’s control.
After Lin Yuan killed all the Tarot members, there was nothing in the Spirit Mother Federation that could restrict Bu Po.
If Bu Po was willing to give resources to his sister, she might be able to use the previous spiritual ingredients to live to 200 years of age.
Once Bu Po’s sister came to the end of her lifespan, it was likely that Bu Po would want to go to the Sky Beyond the Clouds with Lin Yuan.
However, it was impossible for Lin Yuan to wait until then for Bu Po.
As for Wo Lun, he was completely focused on constructing boats.
At first, Wo Lun remained in the Radiance Federation to upgrade the fleet of boats continuously. It was only when the boats were upgraded to a certain degree that Wo Lun pivoted to building his own fleet.
For the past few years, Wo Lun had spent his time traveling everywhere. He had not forgotten his original dream and was still a passionate sailor.
Given his personality, it was more suitable for him to remain in the main world than head to the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Wo Lun’s knowledge about building boats was very useful in the main world. But once he went to the Sky Beyond the Clouds, he would lose the direction he could develop toward.
Peace had indeed experienced growth in the past few years, but her growth was restricted to the Green Continent Federation.
In the past few years, she had secretly reached out to Lin Yuan for help twice. Both times, he had decided to help her.
With Lin Yuan’s help, the Green Continent Federation had managed to gain a stable footing in the main world. But as for where it was going in the future, it would fully depend on Peace’s governance and the federation’s luck!
Once Ta Lei expanded Thick Soil City, he could no longer continue carrying out the duties of the City Lord on his own.
Lin Yuan had sent Qin Lun to help and support Ta Lei.
Lin Yuan would be bringing both Qin Lun and Qin Yu to the Sky Beyond the Clouds and had already helped Qin Lun reach the birth horoscope level.
It was likely that Lin Yuan would give Ta Lei new tasks during this Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting.
This was not because Lin Yuan had any negative opinions against Ta Lei.
Rather, with Ta Lei’s lack of abilities and talent, Lin Yuan would have to come up with alternative arrangements for the entire Thick Soil City once he took Qin Lun away.
Thick Soil City was vital to the entire Startling Lines Continent.
Lin Yuan had thought about nurturing Ta Lei.
While Qin Lun helped Ta Lei manage Thick Soil City, he also became Ta Lei’s role model.
Unfortunately, Ta Lei was unable to rise to the occasion.
Rather than being a ruler, Ta Lei was more suited to concentrating on being a Creation Master.
Ta Lei really liked doing research about Creation Master information and was very skilled at it.
Wen Yu liked to think and consider deeply when she approached any issue.
Liu Jie did not think too much because he felt it was fully up to Lin Yuan about who he was going to take with him. As such, the decisions were solely up to him.
The Astronomical Parliament’s members were not of much help to Lin Yuan. Rather, they were the ones who attained endless opportunities from him.
Peace and Ta Lei were restricted by their abilities and could not create any value for Lin Yuan in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
…
Wen Yu did not hold the Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting immediately after Lin Yuan returned. Rather, she first sent out an announcement to the Astronomical Parliament’s members so they could be prepared.
This would also make it easier for them to interact with Lin Yuan when the meeting began.
They would be holding the next Astronomical Parliament parliamentary meeting in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Wen Yu would abandon the members in the main world, and they would no longer be able to hold their contracts to the north star constellation seats.
Lin Yuan intended to properly rest in the Return from Faraway Mansion for a few days.
He had expended an enormous amount using his body composition to evolve Sky Sea.
In the past year or so, Lin Yuan had not rested apart from sleeping and eating.
…
Lin Yuan only rested for a day before he received a message from Long Tao on the Thoughts Letter Paper.
[Long Tao]: Ah Yuan, I have already given a new batch of the dragon lungs to Listen. Dark Clouds Bird Shrine has also prepared the essence blood of various phoenix-species feys. The dragon lungs weigh more than two tonnes. After this batch of dragon lungs, I won’t be able to provide you with a new batch for a long time!
Long Tao had been working with Lin Yuan for a long time.
In order to increase Shiny’s power as soon as possible, Lin Yuan had provided Long Tao with numerous resources during their partnership. This increased the scale of Long Tao’s cultivation of dragon-species feys.
The lungs of dragon-species feys were the best when they were young. It was also during that period they contained the most energy.
Hence, Long Tao slaughtered the dragon-species feys once they reached that age.
Long Tao had cultivated a batch of standard dragon-species feys. Once he slaughtered them, it would be a few years before he could cultivate a new batch of such dragon-species feys.
Listen had been helping Lin Yuan communicate with Long Tao ever since he returned to the Radiance Federation.
When Lin Yuan read he would be able to obtain over 200 tonnes of dragon lungs and that Dark Clouds Bird Shrine would definitely provide him with a considerable amount of phoenix blood, he knew that Shiny would be able to increase its power quickly once it absorbed them.
Lin Yuan intended to take these two days of rest to nurture the Sovereign/Creation Shiny.
…
Lin Yuan arrived at the breeding room and released Shiny.
At that moment, Shiny was much more heroic than it was when it was Myth Breed. With each flap of its wings, it gave off an inexplicable air of elegance and strength.
Feys with the Barren bloodline had a unique aura of sharpness and carnage. No other feys had such an aura.
Lin Yuan highly valued a fey like Shiny that represented the legacy of the Radiance Federation. Otherwise, he would not have held back from increasing Shiny’s power just because he lacked suitable dragon lungs and phoenix blood.
Lin Yuan used True Data to check on Shiny.
[Fey Name]: Golden Wings
[Fey Species]: Barren-species/feather-winged-species
[Fey Grade]: Sovereign (10/10)
[Fey Type]: Wind
[Fey Quality]: Creation IX
Abilities:
[Snapped Neck Falling Death]: When its sharp claws make contact with a target, the target’s neck will be snapped. At the same time, the Golden Wings will extract the target’s soul and absorb it into its feathers. The soul will imbue the storm patterns on the feathers with intelligence.
[Flowing Wind Claws]: When the wind elements in the Golden Wings’ feathers are released into the environment, it will be able to control the surrounding winds and manipulate them to attack its opponent. The attacked target will feel as if it is being slashed by claws. After attacking a target, the Golden Wings will also be able to inject wind-elemental energy into its target through explosions and cause double the amount of damage.
[Rapid Wind Whistle]: By flapping its wings to activate wind-elemental energy, it will simultaneously let out a roar that causes both physical and elemental damage to a designated target. A headwind will also lower the target’s speed. Each time a headwind is released, its own speed will be increased.
[Hurricane Added Protection]: A vicious hurricane shield will be added to its own body. Every time elemental damage is inflicted on it, the hurricane shield will absorb the damage before reflecting it. The hurricane shield can also absorb wind-elemental energy from the surroundings to replenish the wind-elemental energy in its body.
[Folded Wings Wind Valley]: With the Golden Wings at the center, an environment charged with wind-elemental energy will be formed. Wind-elemental energy will be continuously produced in this environment. When it makes a sacrifice to this territory, the wind-elemental energy will be absorbed into its bloodline and trigger a one-time explosion.
[Disappearing Wind Attack]: Its body will be combined with wind elements. Even a slight breeze will be enough for it to hide within. While it is hiding in the wind, it will be immune to damage as long as the wind remains.
[Revived Seasonal Winds]: The wind elements’ state will be changed. The wind elements will gain powerful healing abilities. Targets will be healed wherever the winds exist. They will continue to heal as long as the wind does not stop moving.
[Swift Wind Death]: The sharpness of wind elements will be activated. The wind elements will change into wild winds that will continuously attack the target until the target has been ground to pieces. The sharpness of the wind elements will have Flowing Wind Claws’ tearing effects and Snapped Neck Falling Death’s bone-breaking effects.
Exclusive Skill:
[Unset State]: When interacting with another fey, the Golden Wings can copy the fey’s exclusive skill and triggered abilities. Unset State will then turn into the copied exclusive skill and triggered ability. The abilities can only be switched out once every lunar cycle.
[Wind’s Descendant]: By placing itself as the heart of all wind elements, it will become the eye of a hurricane and control all surrounding wind elements. It will become the master, while all other winds will become its disciples.
[Summoning Wind Changing Spirit]: Use wind elements to accommodate other elemental energy and turn them into vassals of the wind elements. In extreme environments, the accommodated elemental energy can change its attributes and allow it to become better affiliated with the environment, as well as use elemental attacks of different types.
[Whirling Wind Compression]: Use the energy in its body to compress and coordinate wind-elemental energy. The wind elements will be tightly locked together and will resonate. Its ability to control wind elements will be stronger than that of the natural environment, and it will become stronger at controlling wind elements in different environments. The power of its abilities and exclusive skills related to wind will also be strengthened.
Shiny had gained a new ability called Swift Wind Death and an exclusive skill called Whirling Wind Compression.
Swift Wind Death strengthened Shiny’s attacking abilities.
Shiny’s previous abilities were too balanced and caused Shiny’s combat abilities to be weaker than those of traditional feys with the Barren bloodline.
But now, Swift Wind Death’s existence raised Shiny’s combat abilities.
Swift Wind Death triggered the sharpness of wind elements. While continuously attacking targets, it would have the tearing effects of Flowing Wind Claws and the bone-breaking effects of Snapped Neck Falling Death.
Hence, when Swift Wind Death was attacking targets, it would cause targets to suffer attacks on different levels. It was considered an all-rounded combat skill.
Whirling Wind Compression could be seen as an ability that comprehensively boosted Shiny.
Whirling Wind Compression involved Shiny using its abilities to compress wind elements and improve their quality. Hence, all of Shiny’s wind-related abilities would be boosted. This would enable every single one of Shiny’s abilities and exclusive skills to become stronger!
Shiny could be seen as the model standard of a fey with comprehensive abilities.
However, as Lin Yuan’s power grew, functional-type feys became increasingly important to him.
When Lin Yuan contracted feys, he tried his best to contract functional-type ones.
Shiny’s Unset State allowed it to become a functional-type fey. It used Unset State to replicate the ability Sacrifice and was considered a life-preservation technique for Lin Yuan.
After letting Shiny out, Lin Yuan played with it for a while.
He had just arranged the dragon lungs and phoenix blood in the breeding room for Shiny when Listen arrived at the Return from Faraway Mansion.
In the past ten years, Lin Yuan had increased Listen’s power to the Divine Kingdom level and Listen’s three feys had reached World Emperor/Divine Kingdom.
Although Listen was not one of Sky City’s three main pillars of support, he was just as valuable as Liu Jie and Wen Yu.
Listen was the one who organized and generated all of Sky City’s resources.
Back then, in preparation for the dead spirits crisis, the Radiance Federation had immediately organized all the materials needed to build the defense bases and sent them to the right locations.
This also applied to the construction of the dimensional wall.
This organization of resources allowed Lin Yuan to carry out many tasks smoothly.
Without someone like Listen working for him, Lin Yuan would never be able to be a hands-off manager.
In the past decade, Lin Yuan had not only increased his strength but also his abilities.
After the dead spirits crisis ended, there were many messy and starving federations in the main world. A large-scale death of their populations was avoided because Listen had sent out the Soldier Ration Radishes to them.
When Listen saw Lin Yuan, he bowed and said seriously, “Young Master, Long Tao gave me a batch of resources for you to use to nurture Shiny. I have brought them with me.”
Listen had not seen Lin Yuan in almost two years.
Listen was always aware of his position before Lin Yuan and saw himself as his servant.
Listen handed the fey storage box containing the dragon lungs and phoenix blood to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan received the Diamond fey storage box before patting Listen’s shoulder. “Listen, we will be heading to the Sky Beyond the Clouds soon. That will be your new battleground. For now, distribute the resources I’m about to give you before taking a good rest!”
Listen looked touched when he heard what Lin Yuan said.
Logically, now that Lin Yuan was about to leave the main world, he should be doing all he could to collect the main world’s resources for his own use. However, Lin Yuan did not do so. Instead, he was going to give the main world one last boost before he left.
Lin Yuan’s spirit had never changed, regardless of when they first met or now that he had risen to the peak of the main world. His soul was just as clean as it had always been.
