At the territory.
Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo stood side by side with excited expressions.
“Are you ready?”
Wang Xiao asked softly.
Zhou Xiruo nodded with a flushed face. She took a deep breath to calm herself down, but her voice was still trembling with excitement. “This is the first time I’ve seen a mutated beast evolve with my own eyes!”
“It’s a pity that there’s no Mutated Core. Otherwise, I would definitely let you
broaden your horizons!”
Wang Xiao chuckled and took the lead to walk into the cave.
As soon as he entered the cave, Wang Xiao clearly felt the temperature increase. Ten suns circled in the air, and the dazzling sunlight illuminated this huge space.
This was a nest specially built by Wang Xiao for fire attribute mutated beasts.
Although there was no lava or flames, because of the [Crimson Earth Thousand Miles] skill of the [Blazing Golden Crow], the ten suns could provide this cave with abundant fire attribute elements for a long time.
“Speaking of which, the energy reserve of the [Blazing Golden Crow] is really powerful. It can actually continuously activate skills for a long time.”
Zhou Xiruo said in a shocked tone. Every time she saw the ten suns, she could not help but sigh.
“That’s what you don’t know.”
Wang Xiao chuckled. “The [Blazing Golden Crow] is a fire attribute mutated beast, and these ten suns can provide fire elements, so while it consumes them, it is also replenishing them.”
“These two speeds form a subtle balance. If the [Blazing Golden Crow] doesn’t consume any other energy, in theory, it can maintain the skill effect forever.
It’s simply a bug-like existence! ”
Hearing Wang Xiao’s explanation, Zhou Xiruo was even more shocked. Although she did not know mutated beasts as well as Wang Xiao, she could still feel that they had picked up a treasure!
As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived at the bottom of the cave. When the light of the ten suns arrived, it was clearly a little weak, but they could still feel the scorching temperature.
There was no sign of the [Blazing Golden Crow] here. There was only a huge mound made of scorched earth.
The strange thing was that the top of the mound was grayish-white. It was especially eye-catching in the pitch-black scorched earth, as if the color of the soil had been absorbed by something.
However, this was not the first time the two of them had come. They were not surprised to see this scene.
After standing a little further away, Wang Xiao whistled briefly. The soil immediately began to tremble. A moment later, the Blazing Golden Crow poked its head out of the scorched earth, its body still buried under the scorched earth.
“I promised to help you break through previously. Now, I’ve finally gathered the materials.”
Wang Xiao smiled and opened the interface of the Blazing Golden Crow. He placed all the breakthrough materials on it one after another.
When it was the turn of the ten units of [Black Gold Ore], Wang Xiao could not help but reveal a pained expression. God knew how much effort he had spent on this little thing. These precious materials with a market price of at least 100 million would be reduced to ashes after he pressed the “confirm” button. “Sigh… It is meant to be used. There will be more!”
With a complicated expression, Wang Xiao sighed and placed the ten units of [Black Gold Ore] into the material pool. Then, he immediately pressed “confirm”. He felt that if he had delayed another second, he might change his mind.
The moment he pressed the button, countless materials shattered into light with a bang. Then, as if attracted by something, they quickly gathered into a colorful ball of light.
After the five-colored ball of light spun in the air for a moment, it suddenly entered the body of the Blazing Golden Crow.
Almost at the same time, the ten suns in the sky suddenly extinguished.
The moment darkness descended, a bright orange light lit up in the eyes of the Blazing Golden Crow. In the blink of an eye, surging fire burned through its entire body!
At that moment, Wang Xiao even felt that he was standing in front of the true sun. A terrifying high temperature erupted, and countless scorched earth and even rocks began to burn!
Wang Xiao sensed that something was wrong and hurriedly activated the [Protection Ring]. A golden defensive force field spread out and completely enveloped him and Zhou Xiruo.
Just like the spirit grass poisonous gas in [Thorn Canyon], this extraordinary high temperature was also defined as an “indirect attack”. However, even though the huge amount of fire element energy was blocked outside, the temperature in the air still instantly made the two of them sweat profusely.
Zhou Xiruo’s face was pale. It was unknown if she was hot or frightened, but she pulled Wang Xiao tightly and asked softly, “Wang, Wang Xiao, is this situation normal?”
“I don’t know…
Wang Xiao shook his head with an ugly expression because this was the first time he had seen such a situation. Moreover, when the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf broke through from gold level one to platinum level two last time, he had never seen such a big scene!
However, even if the situation was strange, Wang Xiao did not dare to conclude that there was a problem with the breakthrough of the Blazing Golden Crow. Peak gold-level level three mutated beasts were stronger than gold-level level one mutated beasts to begin with. It seemed to be quite normal for there to be a commotion when they broke through.
As the surrounding temperature increased, Wang Xiao clearly felt that the [Protection Ring] was about to collapse. “The temperature here is too high.
Let’s walk up first!”
“Alright!”
Zhou Xiruo agreed, but there was scorching light in all directions. The two of them could not see anything clearly at all. They could only retreat to the edge first and touch the cave wall to find the stone steps before slowly retreating upwards.
After fumbling all the way to a height of dozens of meters, the unbearable heat began to subside, and the dazzling light around them also began to dim.
Wang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly stuck his head out and looked at the bottom. He saw that all the light seemed to have materialized and was crazily pouring into the body of the Blazing Golden Crow!
A moment later, the light completely dissipated and the figure of the Blazing Golden Crow appeared again.
What surprised Wang Xiao was the physical changes. Back then, the Ice Thunder Horn Wolf had broken through to platinum quality and became more than twice as big as before.
However, after the breakthrough of the Blazing Golden Crow this time, not only did it not become larger, it actually shrunk a lot. It was now only about a tenth of its original size.
“Could it be that the breakthrough failed?”
Wang Xiao’s heart tightened as he hurriedly opened the information interface of the Blazing Golden Crow. [Blazing Golden Crow] [Platinum Level 1]
[Fire]
[Fire attribute mutated beasts that can live in any environment can also change the attributes of the secret realm. Because of their species structure, they also have some characteristics of wind attribute mutated beasts.]
“Success!”
Wang Xiao was delighted. Looking at the words “Platinum Level 1”, the corners of his mouth almost reached the back of his head!
This was the third platinum-quality exotic beast in his hands. This also meant that his strength would take another step forward!
Zhou Xiruo’s voice sounded. “Wang Xiao, what is this?”
Wang Xiao turned around and looked. “Oh, this is the skill of the [Blazing
Golden Crow]. The Crimson Earth Thousand Miles is the ten suns, the Flying
Fire Meteor, and the Death Burning Wind… Phoenix Power?”
Halfway through, Wang Xiao realized that the [Blazing Golden Crow] had another skill. He was stunned for a moment before casually opening the introduction.. At a glance, his eyes widened in shock!
