Chapter 1251: Lin Yuan’s Complete Defense System
Unset State would allow Shiny to change its state to suit Lin Yuan’s fey configuration.
Lin Yuan would also never have to be envious of other fey’s exclusive skills and triggered abilities anymore.
As a Creation Master, Lin Yuan had evolved countless feys and had come across many outstanding exclusive skills and triggered abilities.
Amongst all the feys that Lin Yuan had evolved, he still felt that Chu Ci’s Obsidian Iron Wild Bull had the best exclusive skills.
Lin Yuan badly wanted the abilities Sacrifice and Annihilation Gaze. However, he wanted Sacrifice more than he did Annihilation Gaze.
Given that Shiny depended on its physique to fight, its body was made to store a sea of vitality and be extremely damage resistant.
If Unset State could be replaced with Sacrifice, Lin Yuan would be able to increase his defensive abilities and gain a powerful method of protecting his life.
Spirit qi professionals had three ways of protecting their lives.
The first method was to use an external item to defend against damage. Most defense-type spirit qi professionals who used shielding abilities applied this method.
Lin Yuan’s use of Source Sand also applied this form of defense.
…
Although the first method of defense was the most commonly utilized, it was the least reliable as it was unlikely to provide complete protection.
The first method of defense would fail to defend against unexpected dangers.
When Lin Yuan had been controlled within the water world dimensional rift, he had been unable to summon Source Sand quickly enough to defend himself against sudden attacks.
If Liu Jie had not been by his side, he would definitely have been seriously injured or even killed.
After Lin Yuan formed a contract with the Sacred Sword Wielding Queen and Genius gained a new ability, he gained a second form of defense.
The laws and willpowers on the Queen’s Skirt Hem gave Lin Yuan resistance to all types of damage.
Genius’ Spiritual Energy Expansion would allow Lin Yuan to deflect spiritual damage while protecting him with spiritual energy.
Both of these were considered the second form of defense, which would be able to protect the spirit qi professional in a split second.
Compared to the first form of defense, the second form was undoubtedly more effective.
However, the second form of defense also had its limitations and could not be considered a traditional life-saving method.
The Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s Sacrifice was strong and valuable because it belonged to the third form of defense.
The third form of defense would genuinely increase the spirit qi professional’s method of saving their life.
If Lin Yuan instructed Shiny to use Unset State to copy the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull’s Sacrifice, he would be able to obtain the third method of defense. This would turn Shiny into Lin Yuan’s outstanding living shield.
Unless the opponent had an attack that could kill Shiny in an instant, Lin Yuan would be able to save his life no matter how powerful the attack was.
The Jasmine Lily’s Vitality Imprint was also notable.
It had been a long time since Lin Yuan last used the Jasmine Lily’s Vitality Imprint, and he could sense how much vitality was stored in the Vitality Imprint on his forehead.
He had not had the chance to use the Vitality Imprint during unexpected moments of danger.
With Shiny taking the damage on his behalf, Lin Yuan would now have the chance to use the Vitality Imprint to heal himself continuously.
He would also be able to use Sacrifice to transfer vitality to the injured Shiny.
Shiny’s Unset State provided Lin Yuan’s defense system with a three-pronged approach and allowed him never to have to worry about defense again in the future.
This new method of protecting himself made Lin Yuan feel much more at ease.
Moreover, Unset State could swap out the copied exclusive skill or triggered skill once every lunar cycle.
One lunar cycle was 24 hours. Within 24 hours, Lin Yuan could mold Shiny in any way he saw fit.

Lin Yuan could also swap out Sacrifice for other combat-type abilities and exclusive skills during specific circumstances.
This would enable Shiny’s combat power to become stronger in a more obvious way.
Nonetheless, he could not use Unset State to copy exclusive skills and abilities flippantly.
For example, he could copy Chimey’s Clear Sky without many qualms, but the Jasmine Lily’s Vitality Imprint, Blackie’s Spirit Qi Imprint, and Genius’ Connected Tails would not have any effects when copied.

The Jasmine Lily and Blackie’s powerful foundation came from a continuous supply of vitality and spirit qi, which Shiny did not have access to.
Even if Shiny copied Vitality Imprint and Spirit Qi Imprint, it would not be able to tap into a source of vitality and spirit qi.
As for Genius’ Connected Tails, it was based on the fact that Genius had a sea of knowledge stored in its head.
Without the immense knowledge, Connected Tails’ effects would be cut in half to only being able to offer a perfect flow of communication.
In general, Lin Yuan was pleased with Unset State.
When he first started evolving Shiny, Lin Yuan had stood next to Shiny.
But now, Lin Yuan could only stand on Shiny’s back to inject spirit qi into its body.
Shiny’s wingspan had reached 20 meters, and it was a truly giant creature.
Lin Yuan no longer saw anything cute about Shiny.
The size of Shiny’s body exceeded Lin Yuan’s expectation, and he had never encountered a fey that could grow to such a large size at only Bronze grade.
He could not imagine how shockingly large Shiny would grow to become as it continued to evolve.

Regardless, it seemed that Blackie would not be able to match up to Shiny.
As Shiny continued to eat the dragon lungs, phoenix blood, and powdered wind-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls, its quality steadily raised to Epic.
Lin Yuan immediately suppressed Shiny’s grade so that it could focus on evolving its quality.
