When Lin Yuan activated the Pure Land of Bliss, white sand granules appeared all around Endless Summer’s roots.
The previously unwounded Endless Summer felt as though it was being soaked in a comfortable hot spring.
Lin Yuan focused all his energy into injecting spiritual power into the Pure Land of Bliss to enable it to expand as much as possible and absorb all the Creation World Ley Line residue that Endless Summer had not absorbed.
When the Creation World Ley Line landed on Endless Summer’s tree crown, a golden glow lit up around Endless Summer.
Endless Summer’s aura suddenly intensified, and it seemed to transform again.
But this time, the transformation involved its grade instead of quality.
Previously, Endless Summer was like an unhatched egg. Now, it had broken out of its shell.
Endless Summer started to grow even taller until it reached 1,800 meters tall.
At this point, Endless Summer was the tallest entity in the remote area, and it looked even more imposing than the looming mountains in the distance.
During a question-and-answer session, the Moon Empress had told Lin Yuan about how feys could evolve from Suzerain to Sovereign.
Unlike feys that evolved from Diamond X/Fantasy V to Suzerain before undergoing the World Cleansing to evolve to Myth Breed, only Creation Breed feys could break through Suzerain to evolve to Sovereign.
The aura radiated by a Sovereign fey could strike fear into the hearts of 100 Suzerain feys.
Sovereign was not just a name. It also represented the fey’s level and status.
However, Lin Yuan also remembered the Moon Empress mentioning that Suzerain X feys that evolved to Creation Breed needed some time before they could break through to Sovereign.
Endless Summer’s direct evolution to Sovereign had to be connected to its bloodline’s evolution and Mystic Moon’s separation of the Trial of World Creation’s attacks into smaller bolts that Endless Summer had used to temper the Enlightenment Rune.
Hence, Endless Summer had not wasted a shred of the second and third attack’s energy.
Mystic Moon nodded approvingly when he saw that Endless Summer had evolved to Sovereign. “With three tree cores, the triple-core cycle, and the remote bloodline that was unlocked, Endless Mystical Dream Summer sure is interesting! This is the only way you’ll be worthy of standing by the Young Lord’s side.”
Mystic Moon opened his mouth and swallowed the silver dragon pearls.
Despite having taken on the Trial of World Creation’s attacks, Mystic Moon did not look winded at all. It was as though everything he had just done had only been effortless assistance.
Endless Summer swung its branches wildly and changed into its human form.
It hurriedly used its hands to catch the golden Creation World Ley Line.
Endless Summer did not expect that it would break through from Suzerain X where it had been stuck for some time to Sovereign the moment it evolved to Creation Breed.
Endless Summer would be elated to have evolved if this was any other time.
However, the time it had taken to break through had wasted a few minutes that it could have spent absorbing the Creation World Ley Line.
These few minutes caused some of the Creation World Ley Line’s energy to be lost, and Endless Summer’s heart ached over this waste.
Luckily, the lost energy could be replaced with the world power’s nourishment.
When the Creation World Ley Line landed in Endless Summer’s hands, the power of Enlightenment exploded around Endless Summer, and a pinkish-purple Enlightenment World expanded out around it.
After the Enlightenment World opened, Endless Summer hurriedly buried the Creation World Ley Line in the ground of the Enlightenment World.
An endless number of golden threads burst forth from the ground where the Creation World Ley Line had been buried. The golden threads sailed around the Enlightenment World in every different direction.
The golden threads nourished and stabilized the Enlightenment World, and the world power of the Enlightenment Law slowly grew stronger.
Slowly the golden threads faded and returned to the ground where the Creation World Ley Line had been buried.
A short while later, the golden threads burst from the ground again and spread out to temper the Enlightenment World.
Now, Endless Summer had finally become a Sovereign I/Creation/ fey.
Endless Summer still wore the same pinkish-purple palace robe as before. However, its aura was completely different from before.
Its aura was even more extraordinary than before, and its every movement had a mystical note to it.
The mystical note fused with the Enlightenment World’s roots, and Endless Summer became the willpower of the Enlightenment World.
The Pure Land of Bliss was absorbing the golden light from the Creation World Ley Line, and Lin Yuan could feel a pressure weighing on him that had not been there before.
This pressure made Lin Yuan sigh to himself.
It looks like Morbius’ grade is too low.
Morbius was only Bronze X/Legend, so it was unfeasible to expect it to be able to absorb the energy from the Creation World Ley Line.
It was only after the Blue Flash Purple Butterfly evolved to Fantasy Breed that Morbius would be able to evolve again.
At that time, Lin Yuan would probably be able to see more when he checked on Creation Breed feys.
However, Lin Yuan was unwilling to let the energy from the Creation World Ley Line get away from him.
Lin Yuan fought against the pressure and injected spirit qi into the Pure Land of Bliss to support it as it absorbed the energy in the Creation World Ley Line.
Luckily, there was only a small amount of Creation World Ley Line energy. Lin Yuan’s support would have been useless if there was any more.
However, this form of assertive support was not without its costs. While Lin Yuan was suppressing the pressure and circulating his spiritual power, the spiritual power in his body went out of control and seriously injured him.
Lin Yuan felt something rise up in his throat, and fresh blood leaked out of his mouth and nose with a dull moan of pain.
The sudden appearance of blood terrified the Mother of Bloodbath that was currently carrying Lin Yuan and the old woman that was standing nearby.
The silver-haired old woman’s chest tightened, and she instinctively put a large distance between her and Lin Yuan.
Cicada Song’s proclamation immediately stunned Gao Feng.
Gao Feng instinctively stuck his fingers into his ears to clean them out in case he had misheard.
However, he suddenly remembered how inappropriate it was for him to clean out his ears right in front of Cicada Song.
Cicada Song reached out to adjust Gao Feng’s collar and said, “What’s wrong? Don’t you want to be my disciple?”
Gao Feng snapped out of his confused trance. He was not stupid and would never reject Cicada Song’s public invitation to be his disciple.
Nonetheless, Gao Feng did not understand which part of him was worthy enough for Cicada Song to want to accept him as a disciple.
It could not be because of his father or even his grandfather.
Gao Feng thought hard about this question and realized that it had to be because of his performance on the Martial Stage.
This was the only possible explanation.
The Breeze Hibiscus and Spirit Spring Lily were definitely not enough to catch the attention of Cicada Song.
Hence, it had to be because of the secret weapon that he had not even told his father about, the Yellow Spring Lily.
From the moment Gao Feng had seen the Yellow Spring Lily, he decided to use the Elemental Shellfish and Island Whale to trade for it.
Moreover, he had been delighted by the exclusive skill that the Yellow Spring Lily had attained after evolving to Fantasy Breed.
Gao Feng could not help but be grateful to Lin Yuan.
Although he had used his own resources to trade for the Yellow Spring Lily, if Lin Yuan had not produced the Yellow Spring Lily in the first place, Gao Feng would not have been able to trade for it.
Lin Yuan was the blessing that had given him the opportunity to change his life!
While Gao Feng was thinking, he was still alert enough to hastily nod and say, “I want to, I’m willing!”
Night Leaning Moon frowned when she heard what Cicada Song said and seemed annoyed.
The Guard Ye Banquet was meant for her and Xiyue to debut their disciples, so she felt that Cicada Song’s sudden acceptance of Gao Feng as his disciple was stealing the thunder.
Night Leaning Moon already knew that Cicada Song wanted to accept Gao Feng as his disciple, but she had assumed that he would contact the Gao family privately after the Guard Ye Banquet.
She never expected him to make such a public announcement.
But regardless of her displeasure, she injected spiritual power into the floor, and the mechanisms behind Cicada Song’s seat shifted to produce another chair.
Cicada Song dragged Gao Feng over to the new chair before returning to his own seat.
Although he had just accepted Gao Feng as his disciple, he was already acting in such a considerate manner.
Iron Prison could not help but be envious of Cicada Song’s acceptance of a disciple, but none of the disciples’ performance on the Martial Stage had been noteworthy.
The only young disciples who had had the chance to show off their fighting power were Zong Ze and Lin Yuan.
Besides Lin Yuan, Zong Ze, and Liu Jie, Iron Prison was not interested in anyone else.
Although Du Shuo had put up a good fight with Liu Jie, Iron Prison was still not interested because he felt that Du Shuo’s feys were strong but unable to form a united system. Hence, there was nothing special about him.
Gao Feng was still shaken up, but he was more excited than panicked.
Thanks to Liu Jie, he had already counted himself lucky to have won second place in the Martial Stage.
Now that he was Cicada Song’s disciple, he was no longer just lucky.
Gao Pei beamed brightly and held his head up high as he basked in the envious gazes all around him.
The veteran and top faction leaders were already aware that Cicada Song wanted to accept Gao Feng as his disciple.
After shooting jealous looks at Gao Feng, the other young disciples turned their attention to the two young men walking out of the long corridor.
The sight of the young men’s attire created shockwaves that could even be felt in the depths of one’s soul.
They were dressed in similar coronation costumes to what the Moon Empress and Chief Guard Ye were wearing.
A moment later, they noticed that the two young men’s coronation costumes did not have the coronation patterns.
Although Liu Jie was wearing the coronation costume, he was still wearing the standard Spirit Guard mask.
Nonetheless, Liu Jie and Lin Yuan’s charisma dominated the room, and no one could look away from the handsome men clad in ostentatious coronation costumes.
The veteran and top factions’ leaders and young disciples could not even begin to imagine how much the Moon Empress and Chief Guard Ye doted on their disciples for them to create exact replicas of their coronation costumes.
Although the other members of royalty had accepted disciples, it was unheard of for members of royalty to create replicas of their coronation costumes for their disciples to wear.
The two young men walking out of the long corridor looked majestic and distant at the same time.
The Moon Empress and Night Leaning Moon circulated their spiritual power and dragged Liu Jie and Lin Yuan to them.
The Moon Empress adjusted Lin Yuan’s pearl sash and said, “I sewed this myself two months ago. It looks like a perfect fit. However, you’re only 19 and will continue to grow. Once you’re taller, I’ll alter it for you.”
When Lin Yuan looked at the Moon Empress, he suddenly felt as though his thick yet light Moonbeam Coronation Costume was unspeakably warm.
A radiant smile appeared on Lin Yuan’s face as he said, “Master, I’ll do my best to grow taller.”
The Moon Empress suddenly felt that the mature Lin Yuan seemed rather childish at the moment.
She savored this innocence and smiled warmly back at him.
The crowd’s jaws dropped when they saw the interaction between Lin Yuan and the Moon Empress. The Moonbeam Coronation Costume that Lin Yuan was wearing was evidence of the Moon Empress’ affection for him.
However, none of them were expecting to see this warm side of the ever-cold Moon Empress.
Everyone was waiting for the Guard Ye Banquet to officially begin.
There was one person confusedly standing behind an empty seat. This person was Zheng Kaiyuan.
The Zheng family was one of the three largest veteran factions in Indigo Azure City and did not have the authority to attend the Guard Ye Banquet.
He was able to attend because his Master Miao Qi had brought him along.
He had wanted to tell Miao Qi about how Miao Zhuo had gotten into trouble.
But now, he realized that it was not just Miao Zhuo who Zuo Ming had chased out, but even Miao Qi was gone from the Guard Ye Banquet.
Zheng Kaiyuan had initially been happy that he had been able to join Lin Yuan’s group.
However, his brain was now consumed by one question—Where is Master!?
