Chapter 494: Chapter 495 Decision_1

"Besides being a strategist, what’s more important is that with Mo Li’s assistance, he delves into researching those Spirit Beasts. Only through research can they avoid constantly holding the Spirit Beasts high in the sky."

Feng Yuan said with a smile, while Yao Yin, somewhat perplexed, asked,

"Why so? Isn’t the current respectful situation good enough?"

"Think about it, if everyone treated you in this way, would you be happy?"

"This..."

After pondering, Yao Yin replied,

"It seems... quite lonely..."

"That’s it! Moreover, without communication, how can evolution take place? Most Spirit Beasts cannot evolve merely because they have the strength. Without the corresponding materials, wanting to evolve is simply a dream."

The spectral image of Agunas flicked its tail as if remembering something and said,

"Do you think the modern evolutionary paths are the only options for these Spirit Beasts?"

"How could that be possible! The modern evolutionary paths are just the ones that countless predecessors have tried out, which are the easiest to achieve greater strength. Not to mention, there are other strong evolutionary paths that have diverged, such as Transcendent Evolution, Divine Evolution, Dark Evolution, etc."

"Just that to achieve this step is extremely difficult. Even with the experiences of the forebears, not all Spirit Beasts can manage it."

"So you’re saying that Little Green Snake’s evolutionary path isn’t limited to just becoming Barr the Venomous?"

Feng Yuan glanced at the spectral image of Agunas with annoyance and said,

"Isn’t that obvious? Even if you are a Divine Beast, could you not ask such a foolish question? Little Green Snake’s evolutionary path certainly isn’t limited to Barr the Venomous. It’s hard to say for special evolutions, but Transcendent Evolution, which doesn’t change the original form, can be applied to all Spirit Beasts."

Remembering something, Feng Yuan looked at Little Green Snake and said,

"Could it be that you don’t wish to evolve into Barr the Venomous?"

Little Green Snake hesitated and hissed. The spectral image of Agunas translated,

"It wants to forge a more powerful evolutionary path for its kind, the Little Green Snake clan. After all, the evolutionary path of Barr the Venomous isn’t considered strong and only ranks in the mid-tier among all Spirit Beasts."

"This..."

Feng Yuan hesitated, and seeing Feng Yuan’s indecision, Little Green Snake called out excitedly. The spectral image of Agunas said in surprise,

"Do you have a way? Is your hesitation because there might be some negative effects?"

"It’s not that... rather, as I mentioned before, someone needs to blaze the trail... and the cost of blazing that trail..."

Feng Yuan looked up solemnly at the spectral image of Agunas and said,

"Do you remember the concept of ’mistaken evolution’?"

"You mean..."

"The so-called ’mistaken evolution’ arises not only from deliberate inducement but also from those pioneers who attempt to carve out new paths for their kin..."

"Do you remember the broadcaster we met in Shenhua City? Her Water Faerie is part of a mad clan. Once a vast group, they have been tested nearly to the point of only inhabiting the outskirts of Shenhua City."

With a smile, Feng Yuan said,

"But correspongding to that, they have a terrifying evolutionary lineage, with as many as five paths leading to the Legendary Level. One can hardly imagine how many Water Faeries were sacrificed for all this..."

"So you mean, it just can’t do it on its own?"

The spectral image of Agunas flicked its tail in some frustration and asked. Stroking his chin, Feng Yuan thought for a moment and said,

"That should be the case, but..."

"When I have the time, I’ll ask Him if my idea can be realized."

"To have my brother travel abroad? Although I’m looking forward to it, wouldn’t that be inappropriate..." Mo Ling said with some worry after hearing Hua Yiyou’s account. She wasn’t suspicious of Hua Yiyou’s intentions, after all, she also knew that Hua Yiyou was someone Feng Yuan specifically brought to retrieve her brother. While Mo Ling didn’t know much about Feng Yuan, through her conversations with Yao Yin, she was aware that although Feng Yuan’s goals were still unclear, his attitude towards her and her brother was almost like that of Hu Weng’s.

Especially the time in Great Li City when they rescued her and her brother. Yao Yin, for some unfathomable reason, disclosed their potential future. Even though Yao Yin instructed her not to tell others, Mo Ling understood that Feng Yuan wouldn’t harm them.

Mo Li was surprised that Mo Ling wasn’t suspicious of Hua Yiyou having ulterior motives as they had just met. Just as Mo Li was about to say something, Hu Weng cleared his throat and looked at Mo Ling before speaking,

"Xiao Ling, don’t put too much trust in your first impressions. After all..."

"Appearances can be deceiving."

Hua Yiyou smiled and said, and Mo Ling stuck out her tongue and replied,

"I understand."

"Regarding the situation you mentioned, I am also aware. Just as you said, in places rarely trodden by human feet, one can often encounter powerful Divine Lords. However, unlike those Divine Lords who are in constant contact with humanity, these Divine Lords seem to have a rather bad temper..."

Hu Weng looked at Hua Yiyou with some skepticism. Although there were occasional wanderers who received the divine protection of powerful deities deep in the mountains and forests, please note, it was only occasionally! More often than not, they either returned empty-handed or were attacked by these powerful deities.

Hua Yiyou shook the folding fan in his hand and said,

"The beings we now refer to as Divine Lords, among themselves, they call themselves Spirit Beasts. As for why they are called that, it is said that they knew some things from the moment they were born."

"It’s just a name."

Mo Li waved his hand, indicating not to fret over such minor issues, and Hua Yiyou said with a serious face,

"It’s not as simple as that. Gods truly do exist."

"When our Divine Lord spoke to me, he once mentioned that apart from the strength levels recorded in that book, there is a level above those, the Divine Beast Level!"

"Do you remember the Dragon God Envoy from Great Yan, the green dragon that protected him is a Divine Beast, named Yimu Qingling!"

Mo Li pondered thoughtfully,

"But... the strength of Yimu Qingling seems..."

"That’s because the opponent was too strong, and no one could make it exert its full strength. You just need to think carefully to realize the problem..."

Hua Yiyou said with a sigh, had it not been for the Dreaming Stone’s mention, he might not have realized that the Dragon God Envoy, who suffered defeat, actually had a real deity aiding him.

Upon reflection, Mo Li’s face turned a bit unsightly as he said,

"It seems... that is indeed the case..."

"What’s the issue with that Dragon God Envoy?"

Mo Ling tried hard to recall, feeling somewhat puzzled, and Mo Li exhaled deeply before saying,

"Just think about the consequences of a general’s defeat in battle to understand."

"Wait! He always managed to retreat safely even if he was defeated!"

Mo Ling exclaimed in surprise, aware that during this period, there was no such thing as taking prisoners in battles, especially for generals commanding Spirit Beasts. As long as they were slain, the Spirit Beasts accompanying them might not acknowledge another person and simply leave.

No matter how many ordinary people there were, without the augmentation of a Spirit Beast, they were insignificant. Hence, most generals who were defeated either died or withdrew severely injured, but the Dragon God Envoy they mentioned was different. Although often defeated, he always managed to retreat unharmed, which even led to repeated suspicions of collusion within Great Yan.

"If only we too had the protection of a real deity..."

Mo Li lamented. As for why the Dragon God Envoy often faced defeat, it was quite understandable. Much like how these Divine Envoys looked down upon the common folk, always feeling superior, to the most powerful class, the Divine Beasts, they probably viewed them much as they themselves viewed the commoners... or perhaps even worse, as mere ants upon the ground.

"Strictly speaking, we do have a... real God on our side."

Startled by Hua Yiyou’s words, Mo Li asked with astonishment and skepticism,

"Who?"

"The White Wolf Deity of Wolf Mountain Hall."

Hearing Hua Yiyou’s words, Mo Li was shocked. After a moment’s doubt, he looked at Hua Yiyou and asked,

"Are you serious?"

"What’s wrong?"

"Do you know why he doesn’t dare to intervene directly?"

With a slight smile, Hua Yiyou flicked the folding fan in his hand and said,

"If you’re referring to its battle with the Flaming Dragon that protected the country, that’s something you can figure out for yourself."
