Endless Summer could clearly feel that Red Thorn’s wisdom was like a child who just could express happiness, anger, and sadness.
Lin Yuan must have usually treated it extremely well. Otherwise, even if he was Red Thorn’s contractor, it would never be so dependent on him.
Given Red Thorn’s wisdom, if Lin Yuan did not treat it well, it would instead fear him. A fey’s fear and obedience toward a human was what Endless Summer hated the most.
As she looked at Red Thorn’s vine that was clinging to Lin Yuan’s hand and the red ribbon tied on the vine, Endless Summer suddenly felt that even time had warmed up.
It had recently snowed heavily in the depths of the Endless Forest, and the snow-covered ground revealed a coldness. However, the affection in front of her made the scenery as warm as midsummer in August.
“My Enlightenment Law Rune can enlighten a plant fey with the power it condenses every five years. I enlighten myself every five years, but I’ve set aside a chance to enlighten myself.
“I thought if I could not resist the World Cleansing when I reached Myth III, I could use this enlightenment chance to earn myself a chance of survival, but I didn’t use it.
“I’m not sure whether this Law Rune’s enlightenment can promote your contracted Red Thorn from Epic to Legend.”
After saying that, Endless Summer summoned her pink-purple petal-like Enlightenment Willpower Rune and enlightened Red Thorn.
She did so very quickly, and Lin Yuan could feel that after Red Thorn digested this enlightenment, it immediately fell into a deep sleep. He knew that this was a necessary state for it to improve its strength.
Red Thorn was originally just a source-type Source Seed, and it had turned out this way now because it had followed the evolution path that Lin Yuan had chosen for it.
It could be said that Red Thorn was like a blank canvas, but this blank canvas had been drawn into its current state under the joint efforts of Lin Yuan and Red Thorn.
Lin Yuan did not dare to say that Red Thorn’s current evolution and form were at the optimum path. However, its current state was most suitable for his combat style.
Endless Summer sensed Red Thorn’s state and said, “It takes seven days for one enlightenment. It looks like it has a high chance of promoting its quality.”
Lin Yuan nodded. Just a second before Endless Summer had spoken, he had already known that Red Thorn’s quality would certainly be raised.
This was because Red Thorn had transmitted a request to him. It had asked in which direction it should evolve afterward.
Lin Yuan did not expect that Endless Summer’s enlightenment would be so powerful. It was akin to letting the Bronze/Epic Red Thorn cross this hurdle that was hard to overcome and reach Bronze/Legend.
However, he knew that this Law Rune’s enlightenment was so powerful because Endless Summer had just reached Myth III.
Furthermore, Endless Summer could only cast it once every five years. Since Endless Summer had just undergone the World Cleansing, there was a hint of World Grace in her Enlightenment Law Rune.
After Red Thorn’s quality had broken through the barrier, this enlightenment caused it to have nowhere to vent the huge amount of energy, which it had accumulated from devouring a lot of flesh from the sea of demons and was intended to enhance its quality.
This huge amount of energy in conjunction with that hint of the World Grace in the enlightenment would allow Red Thorn to very likely break through to Silver when it fused with the Willpower Rune and became a Fantasy Breed.
Although Lin Yuan had always been very clear about Red Thorn’s evolution path, the detailed branches Red Thorn had provided made him hesitate about the main path that he had planned.
Because of one of his decisions, its form would be very different after becoming a Fantasy Breed. However, Lin Yuan could take his time to think about it. He did not need to be in a hurry to decide its evolution path as Red Thorn’s metamorphosis would be completed when it fused with the Willpower Rune and became a Fantasy Breed.
Therefore, while Red Thorn was receiving the enlightenment for seven days, he could make some careful deliberations based on his own combat system.
…
In the supreme imperial court in the Radiance Federation, 13 chairs were situated next to a huge stone table inscribed with many marks. Each of the chairs had one figure—the true experts of this era. All of them possessed great strength.
Unexpectedly, it was silent in the imperial court right now.
A very kind-looking old man, who leaned on the backrest, was at the stone table’s main seat. The interior light could not shine on his face. However, one could feel the other 12 people’s respect for the old man.
The Moon Empress was sitting on the second chair in the row on the left side of the imperial court. A full-bearded man sat on the left-hand seat, looking at her with narrowed eyes.
At the third position at the right side was a man holding a bamboo, his eyes flowing with an unknown meaning.
The one who kept looking at the Moon Empress was the oldest of the Radiance Federation’s three Class 5 Creation Masters, Chef Supreme. However, the Moon Empress was looking at Bamboo Monarch. Clearly, the three of them were interacting.
The black-veiled Spirit Guards’ Chief Guard was sitting opposite the Moon Empress.
A man with peach blossom eyes and a smiling face was sitting opposite the Moon Empress, as well as a livid, stern man clad in dark armor.
If Lin Yuan could see these two people, he would certainly have recognized one of them, the man called Iron Prison. He had nearly forced his master to make a move.
The other one was none other than the man with the smiling face who had come at the last minute and made the Moon Empress stop what she was doing.
Besides Chef Supreme, the Moon Empress, Bamboo Monarch, Chief Guard Ye, Iron Prison, and the man with the smiling face, there were six other men with different looks.
There were only two women among the two rows of twelve seats. One of them was the Moon Empress, while the other was the Spirit Guards’ Chief Guard.
At present, the atmosphere was a bit strange. The crowd was exchanging glances, and only the man with the smiling face knocked on the table with his finger as if he was waiting for something.
A very gentle voice sounded. Nobody could figure out this voice’s age, but it was very calm, with an indescribable weight.
This voice came from the old man who was leaning back on the chair at the main seat.
“Tell me what you guys think about this issue.”
The 12 voices replied, ‘Yes’, and the first to speak was the stern Iron Prison.
