Chapter 307: The Blood Stone Lion Appears

Ye Bai's True Sight Eye currently still possesses the ability of X-ray vision.

He watched as the stone lion's core extended countless tentacles like fine threads; the core was absorbing surrounding energy to strengthen its own.

The tentacles, like sharp steel wires, pierced into the Earth Crystal Core.

Streams of earthy-yellow energy surged into the stone lion's core.

Ye Bai discovered that the stone lion's core was constantly growing larger and also becoming increasingly blood-red.

At the same time, he observed a very strange phenomenon.

That was that the stone lion's core was selectively absorbing the crystal cores.

The stone lion's core that absorbed the Dark Element Core, originally pure white and flawless in appearance, turned dark red and sprouted sharp spikes.

Meanwhile, the stone lion's core that absorbed the Earth Crystal Core turned vermilion, carrying the steadiness of the earth.

This truly made Ye Bai feel that it was quite different.

And the stone lion's core currently in the Secret Realm turned earthy-yellow.

These three types of cores were all evolving and developing in different ways.

For the core in the Burrowing Rat Secret Realm, Ye Bai used a free-range method, because in some places there were many Earth Crystal Cores, while in others there were few.

However, the amount of Dadi Zhiru he dripped onto the core was fixed.

Now it just depended on which direction the stone lion would evolve.

Zhang Lingxue was treating the wounded, while Jiao Mujiao presided over the meeting.

He demanded that the Nantianmen Fortress must be held.

As for Zhang Dashan and Han Yan, they were closing their eyes to rest and waiting for the arrival of Yinhu.

Only by gathering the strength of the three of them would they have a chance of winning against the Lava Dragon Turtle.

Time passed second by second.

At the location where Ye Bai was, the room door remained tightly shut.

Xuemo Du Bo had the intention to enter the Tuzai Chang and finish off Ye Bai.

But at the critical moment, the Blood Demon still held back.

Ye Bai was a very important researcher; he could finish off others, but if he finished off Ye Bai, it was estimated that the entire Nantianmen Fortress would be searched inside and out.

He hid the Blood River one thousand meters below the ground of the Nantianmen Fortress, prioritizing safety.

This was relative to a Tier 7 Beast Tamer.

If a Tier 8 Beast Tamer were to attack, this place would easily be seen through.

Therefore, Xuemo Du Bo did not act rashly.

He was also observing the progress of Ye Bai's experiment at the same time.

"Good fellow, truly worthy of being the champion of the Young Qilin Cup; to think he has such ideas."

"The stone lion's core just promoted like this?"

Xuemo Du Bo suddenly felt it was quite absurd.

Finding a Tuzai Chang, digging up the muddy ground stained with the Tuzai Chang, and then putting the stone lion's core, Dark Element Core, and Earth Crystal Core into it could promote its evolution? This guy isn't a researcher, he's a wizard, right?

The Blood Demon was also speechless.

As for why the Blood Demon did not intend to make a move on Ye Bai, there was another reason: he could not beat Ye Bai.

As a thrall of the Blood Demon God, the Blood Demon could clearly sense that Ye Bai possessed the aura of different Demon Gods on his body.

It seemed Ye Bai had associated with various Demon Gods.

"According to my latest intelligence, the 63rd Demon God Andora is about to descend."

"With two Demon Gods joining forces to occupy the south and the east, the Yan Country will completely fall into the Demon Gods' territory."

"By then, we can force the people of the Yan Country to worship the Demon Gods, providing the Demon Gods with substantial faith power."

The Blood Demon muttered to himself.

As a traitor who had defected to the Blood Demon God from the beginning, he was single-mindedly thinking for his master.

Time quickly reached the evening.

After losing the Thunder Birds that blotted out the sky, the night sky became very beautiful.

Night descended; above the firmament, a curved bright moon hung gently like a white jade hook, casting a hazy silver glow that spread over the quiet fortress.

The galaxy gradually unfolded, with stars dotting the sky like musical notes dancing in the night.

The outline of the fortress was faintly discernible under the moonlight; Ye Bai did not eat or drink, observing the life advancement of the stone lion.

As an Exotic Beast composed of inorganic matter, how the stone lion would leap and evolve was also a subject that researchers currently needed to study.

And Ye Bai was only able to see the entire process of the stone lion's evolution thanks to the True Sight Eye.

After the stone lion's core absorbed the energy, a trace of blood threads appeared; the blood threads kept increasing and growing larger like cell division.

Finally, it formed a Blood Cocoon that pulsed like a heart.

Every time it pulsed, the Blood Cocoon absorbed the extremely pure blood energy nearby.

The blood-red sludge of the Tuzai Chang surrounded the Blood Cocoon like a slime.

By absorbing this blood energy, the stone lion's core gradually constructed a brand-new body.

Roar.

The body, limbs, and head were gradually constructed.

Midnight arrived, and the bell of the Nantianmen Fortress rang accordingly.

In the distance, a group of uninvited guests flew over, and sharp, piercing sounds came from their mouths.

【1. Tier 6 Exotic Beast Ghost Bats rushed out from the Beast Rift. They can shuttle through shadows and are a very troublesome type of Exotic Beast. Even Holy Light illumination has difficulty causing an impact on Ghost Bats. They dislike the strong allicin smell of garlic; Ghost Bats will not approach places stained with garlic. Their crystal cores can be used to formulate Shadow Potion.】

【2. After the stone lion's core evolves, it is necessary to add one's own spiritual power into the evolved core in advance. Before it breaks out of the cocoon, the evolved stone lion has no combat power at this time. Only after its body is completely shaped will it possess powerful combat power. Heavenly Dew can enhance the foundation of the stone lion's core.】

【3. Black Water Dan (a type of snake) will emerge from the Beast Rift. They are greedy by nature; wherever they pass, not a blade of grass will grow. The Black Water within their bodies contains extremely corrosive substances. Their weakness lies in the single horn on their heads. Drunken Dragon Stone can cause Black Water Dan to fall into a drunken state. After being processed, the meat of the Black Water Dan is quite delicious.】

【4. The Blood Demon God fears weapons and equipment forged from Mithril. One finger's width to the left of its chest is the location of the Blood Demon God's Heart Core. If that spot is pierced, the Blood Demon God's strength will be instantly and greatly reduced.】

【5. At the bottom of the moat of Nantianmen Fortress, there is a treasure called the Water Spirit Pearl, which is a rather good tonic for Water Qilin Beasts.】

The intelligence tips provided tonight were all quite good.

Ye Bai scratched his forehead.

This Beast Tide was faster than he had imagined; look, the Ghost Bats and Black Water Dan were already attacking.

Although Holy Light does not have much use against Ghost Bats, it can allow the Pet Beast Masters present to discover the tracks of the Ghost Bats and Black Water Dan.

Thus, at Ye Bai's command, the Clone of the Sunflower Emperor used the skill Holy Light.

The blinding light illuminated the entire fortress.

At this moment, after detecting shadows in the sky, the detection radar immediately emitted a high-pitched sound.

Although the Ghost Bat burrowed into the shadows in an extremely short time, its appearance was still captured.

At this time, in the Nantianmen Fortress operations room.

Jiaomujiao was shrouded in milky white light; he, who had been exhausted, soon recovered.

"Senior brother, why don't you let me and Fang Ritu watch here?" "You go and rest quickly; even if there are many things to do, we must pay attention to balancing work and rest."

"Rest assured, with me and Fang Ritu here, Nantianmen Fortress will not be lost."

"You keep using Holy Light to dispel your fatigue; it's fine in the short term, but in the long run, your body won't be able to hold up."

Zhang Lingxue said to Jiaomujiao.

Jiaomujiao was also persuaded. Just as he was preparing to leave the operations conference room and intended to rest, the door was kicked open with a bang.

A person walked over hurriedly: "Lord Jiaomujiao, the Beast Tide has appeared."

"Fortunately, the Sunflower Emperor used Holy Light just now, so our monitoring equipment was able to detect the traces of a group of Exotic Beasts."

"The moment our camera captured the Exotic Beast, we discovered that this Exotic Beast was not in our database at all."

"This is a new type of Exotic Beast."

Jiang Dashi had long ago uploaded the library's data to the Yan Country's artificial intelligence, Nuwa.

Nuwa authorizes others to detect information about Exotic Beasts when the Beast Tide arrives.

"And we also discovered an Exotic Beast that looks very much like a Black Water snake, but it has a single horn on its head."

"If we don't know the weaknesses of these Exotic Beasts, our defense will be greatly compromised."

Jiaomujiao took the pictures; he saw the pictures of the Ghost Bat and the Black Water Dan.

Then he pushed the pictures forward, signaling for Zhang Lingxue and Fang Ritu to view them together.

"Junior sister, take a look and see if you recognize this Exotic Beast."

"In addition, send these pictures to the Imperial Capital Research Institute simultaneously; please ask the experts and professors to help us study them."

Jiaomujiao said with extreme urgency.

"Wait, let me ask Ye Bai first."

Zhang Lingxue suddenly interrupted Jiaomujiao's instructions.

Jiaomujiao immediately understood Zhang Lingxue's purpose; after all, Ye Bai studied under the Heaven Gate, and his research on Exotic Beasts was even more formidable than theirs.

【Zhang Lingxue: Ye Bai, help me take a look. Do you recognize these two types of Exotic Beasts? What are their weaknesses? Image. jpg】

Not long after, Ye Bai sent a message.

【Ye Bai: The bat-shaped Exotic Beast is called a Ghost Bat. It is skilled at using Shadow Shuttle. They are not afraid of light-attribute attacks, but they particularly dislike the smell of allicin.】

【Ye Bai: That Exotic Beast that looks like a Black Water Mysterious Snake is called a Black Water Dan. This type of Exotic Beast possesses a substance called Black Water in its body, which has extremely strong corrosiveness. Their horn is their weakness.】

Ye Bai very easily told Zhang Lingxue the weaknesses of the two Exotic Beasts.

Zhang Lingxue shared the information.

"Currently, Ye Bai is conducting a very important piece of research, so I will say a few less words."

"Just now, Ye Bai said that this Exotic Beast called the Ghost Bat is skilled at Shadow Shuttle."

"But according to my deduction, although light-attribute skills are ineffective against Ghost Bats, light can reduce shadows and lock onto the range of the Ghost Bats."

"So I think the skill Holy Light must be used."

"I just took a look; each Black Water Dan is tens of meters long, and their mouths are even two meters wide. They all look like Titan Pythons, so I have a suggestion: have the Pet Beast Masters who use long-range attacks perform long-range attacks."

Jiaomujiao nodded.

Zhang Lingxue actually had one more thing in her heart that she didn't say. In fact, for dealing with Exotic Beasts like Ghost Bats, the Thunder Bird is the most suitable Pet Beast.

But they were all drained by the Thunder Eye; wanting to recover would take at least a month.

At this moment, Ye Bai placed his mental imprint into the Blood Cocoon.

He could feel that the stone lions were about to take shape.

Sure enough, the next second, a blood-colored Lijua broke through the Blood Cocoon and tore the Blood Cocoon to shreds.

An incomparably majestic and exceptionally spirited stone lion appeared.

It looked up to the sky and let out a giant roar, emitting a deafening roar.

The Blood Lion's robust body, every muscle condensed with power, was ready to go.

Its eyes, deep red like burning flames, revealed a wild heat and determination.

The thick mane shimmered with a golden luster under the dim light.

Its open Blood Basin Mouth seemed capable of devouring any existence that dared to provoke it, and the exposed fangs were a fatal warning to the enemy.

The Blood Lion flicked its tail gently; the tail, which was like steel, slammed heavily onto the ground, quickly leaving a long, narrow bloodstain.

It was just that this Blood Lion was exceptionally docile.

It lowered its head and stuck out its tongue to lick Ye Bai's face.

This Blood Lion belongs to an alternative evolution, a Pet Beast evolved by absorbing a Dark Element Crystal Core and soil soaked in blood.

Its claws are long and sharp, and its body is suffused with a blood-red radiance.

【Name: Blood Stone Lion】

【Gender: Male】

【Attribute: Dark/Earth】

【Level: Tier 6, Grade 3】

【Skills: Flight (Proficient): Grows wings made of rock on its back to fly in the air and attack enemies.

Tearing Claw (Proficient): The Lijua possesses the ability to trigger Bleeding; upon touching an opponent, it causes the opponent to rapidly enter a state of continuous blood loss.

Self-Regeneration (Proficient): By absorbing blood, it can restore its own body, capable of recovering its stamina and healing wounds.

Self-Recovery (Proficient): Even with only one Heart Core, as long as it is in contact with the earth, it will re-condense its body.

Blood Lion Cannon (Proficient): Gathers blood energy to fire a blinding beam of light to attack the opponent, causing the opponent to evaporate instantly.】

【Evolution Route 1: Blood Stone Lion King: Collect the blood of one hundred types of powerful Tier 7 Exotic Beasts to evolve into the Blood Lion King; the blood of each Exotic Beast must be no less than 50L.】

"My goodness, if this guy wants to evolve, that's going to be incredible."

The appearance of the Blood Stone Lion certainly gave Ye Bai a great boost of confidence.

An Exotic Beast capable of manipulating blood like this must surely be very strong.

I wonder if it can easily hunt down the Ghost Bat if they were to face off? Ye Bai rubbed his chin and thought to himself.

Without practice, there is no right to speak.

As the Blood Cocoons shattered one after another, the Stone Lion Ghost King also appeared.

This is a type of Pet Beast that emits an aura of grayish-white like rock from its entire body.

They possess three pairs of strong and powerful wings; compared to the Blood Stone Lion, the Stone Lion Ghost King looks even more domineering.

The teeth exposed in the Stone Lion Ghost King's mouth are like two large daggers.

It possesses an arrogance that looks down upon all living things.

Roar, a growl immediately erupted.

The deafening roar spread out.
