Chapter 367: Evolution of the Space Pelican
Thump.
Thump.
Thump.
The giant cocoon formed by the Space Pelican pulsed like a heart, and the figure of the Space Pelican could be faintly seen inside.
Through the Truth Eye, Ye Bai could also see that the Space Pelican was undergoing changes.
A massive suction force emanated from the giant cocoon.
It stirred up waves of space storms.
The world suddenly changed color, and the sky turned dark.
The sky was gray and hazy, with only Space Rifts appearing one after another.
Black arcs of electricity emerged from the Space Rifts, and the space barriers around the small island suffered extremely severe damage.
Air currents wrapped in black arcs of electricity swirled high in the sky, as if the end of the world had arrived.
The entire island was shrouded in a layer of gray mist, and the space energy became increasingly chaotic.
Countless Space Rifts opened, and a large number of space-type Exotic Beasts emerged from them.
These space Exotic Beasts all came from other worlds.
They were all strange in appearance; some were like paper cutouts, while others were like giant tumors with countless eyes on them.
Without exception, these space Exotic Beasts were all attracted by the space storm.
The space storm would make space extremely unstable, thereby giving birth to more Space Fragments.
Each Space Fragment contained a certain amount of Space Origin, which could help Exotic Beasts advance rapidly.
Especially for Exotic Beasts that had reached the peak of the sixth rank and were about to evolve, they viewed Space Fragments as items already in their grasp.
Therefore, these space Exotic Beasts swarmed over, regardless of the danger of being shredded by the space storm.
At the same time, they began to fight each other to compete for more Space Fragments.
A silver-white Space Blade severed the head of a Void Ant, and in the next instant, the Void Ant was torn to pieces by the Space Blade.
The space of the entire island became exceptionally unstable; a moment of carelessness could lead to being trapped in a space turbulence.
Most of the space Exotic Beasts that were fighting were harvested by the Space Blades.
However, because of his contract with the Space Pelican, Ye Bai was not affected by the space storm, and the Space Blades had no significant impact on him either.
The place where he was located was, on the contrary, the safest.
The space storm grew larger and more powerful, forming a tornado that connected to the sky.
The Space Rifts shattered instantly, forming countless Space Fragments.
It is estimated that the space around the small island will require a long time to finally be repaired.
Space-type Exotic Beasts can easily pass through Space Wormholes to come to Blue Star.
But affected by the Crystal Wall rules of Blue Star, the strength of space-type Exotic Beasts will drop significantly.
Countless Void Ants were swept into the space storm, and before long, they were ground into countless fragments by the space storm.
And the Space Origin contained within their bodies became the resources for the space storm to develop and grow.
This attracted more space Exotic Beasts to rush toward the space storm like moths to a flame, delusional about seizing the Space Fragments contained within.
They launched fierce battles, all wanting to obtain more Space Origin to subsequently break through to the seventh rank.
Once they reach the seventh rank in strength, they are equivalent to a lord of a territory.
Otherwise, the number of Pet Beast Masters in Yan Country who reach the seventh rank is not very large.
Many sixth-rank Pet Beast Masters are stuck at the bottleneck of the sixth-rank peak, unable to improve for the rest of their lives.
The range of the space storm is expanding, and its power is becoming stronger and stronger.
Countless space-attribute Exotic Beasts attracted over were all shredded by the space storm, and their space crystal cores turned into streams of light, merging into the giant cocoon.
They discovered in despair that the Space Fragments were actually bait to attract them, and they themselves were the sacrificial food.
Ye Bai was surprised to find that the giant cocoon formed by the Space Pelican had directly become the core of the space storm.
Countless space crystal cores were devoured by the giant cocoon, and the luster on the giant cocoon became even more translucent.
He discovered that the proficiency of the Space Pelican's space storm skill was rapidly increasing.
Moreover, a progress bar appeared on the Space Domain side, gradually climbing.
The space crystal stone, the size of a basketball court, was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Space Pelican had reached the final step of evolution and advancement.
As long as it could step past it, it would become a seventh-rank lord.
If it failed, it would die and its soul would dissipate, and even Ye Bai would be erased by the disordered space storm.
"Damn, this time, the Space Pelican might really be able to use the power of the space crystal stone to break its limits and enter the seventh-rank state."
Ye Bai had not previously felt that it was so difficult for a Pet Beast to enter the seventh rank.
But the Space Pelican's improvement told him.
It is difficult, quite difficult, very difficult.
Every time the giant cocoon pulsed, it would swallow a massive amount of space power.
Ye Bai could feel that the Space Pelican's consciousness was gradually recovering.
The Space Origin was also gradually increasing.
The appearance of the space storm directly caught the attention of the Space King.
His face immediately lit up with joy, and his mouth turned into a smirk.
The space storm is very dangerous, but it is accompanied by huge gains.
After the space storm disappears, one can often pick up a large number of space treasures.
Since his Clone had perished together with the enemy recently, he would need sufficient heavenly treasures if he wanted to cultivate a new one.
Just as the Space King intended to go and investigate in person, a directive from the Glory Angel was sent over.
All Eight Kings are to assemble and come for a meeting.
The Space King felt secretly displeased inside.
"Forget it, forget it, let's see what that old fellow wants."
"I'll just take the time to go see him; the space storm won't end for a while anyway."
The Space King snapped his fingers and used Space Transfer.
He immediately appeared in a sealed space.
This place was filled with rivers composed of countless faiths, as well as halls of gods floating in the air.
And the Halls of Gods was the residence of the Glory Angel.
It was manufactured in imitation of Heaven Mountain.
He snapped his fingers again and appeared at a round table.
"Glory Angel, you summoned us Eight Kings in such a hurry; what exactly is the matter?"
"The post-disaster reconstruction work in the Beautiful Country has already kept us so busy we can't even touch the ground."
The hot-tempered Fire King muttered.
"I have received an oracle from the Light God."
"He demands that we eliminate the Four Cardinal Virtues."
Upon hearing this, the Lightning King stood up abruptly: "Glory Angel, you must be joking."
"We were already barely managing to deal with Wind Virtue, the Storm Dragon."
"Even you only managed to defeat the Storm Dragon by summoning the Light God."
"Now you demand that we take out the Four Cardinal Virtues; this is something we simply cannot do."
The Lightning King stood straight up and said with slight dissatisfaction.
The Glory Angel raised an eyebrow, not showing anger. "I can forgive your act of disrespect toward the Light God this once."
"You haven't heard me finish speaking yet."
"To deal with the Four Cardinal Virtues, the Light God will send down his divine artifact, Day Fall."
"This thing has a great restraining effect on the Four Cardinal Virtues and can limit their strength to the eighth-tier level."
"As long as you bring out one hundred percent of your strength, it is impossible that you cannot handle an eighth-tier Pet Beast."
"Unless you harbor ulterior motives against the Light God."
"But you must know that the Light God is among the top handful of gods in Tianjie."
"If he finds out that you want to deceive him, you will have to bear the pain of deceiving the Light God yourselves; do you understand?"
"In the eyes of the gods, you are just some slightly Stronger ants; if you encountered the Doomsday Old Gods, you would be nothing more than blood food in their mouths."
The Glory Angel looked at the Eight Kings with a playful expression.
The Eight Kings had grown arrogant and needed to be beaten down severely so they could be of use to him.
Borrowing the prestige of the Light God to act like a fox assuming the tiger's might was indeed very effective on these bumpkins.
Even the Glory Angel feared the reputation of the Doomsday Old Gods.
It had once been treated as blood food by a massive Doomsday Old God.
Fortunately, Lord Light God descended from the sky and gave it a second life.
Therefore, no matter what, it could never betray Lord Light God, as that would stain its lifelong faith.
The Eight Kings looked at each other; the Glory Angel was right—rather than defecting to the Doomsday Old Gods who viewed them as blood food, it was better to join the Light God's command early.
Join early, secure a spot early.
Seeing the Eight Kings yield one by one, though unwilling and forced to swallow their pride, a smug smile appeared on the Glory Angel's lips.
The petty Eight Kings were completely under control.
"By the way, there is one more thing I want to tell you."
"I have decided to open the barrier of the Sea God Abyss and let the low-tier Angel Army enter the Blue Star to accelerate the erosion of the Blue Star's Crystal Wall."
"The sooner the Light God descends here, the higher the probability of you becoming gods."
"Unless you do not want to become gods."
The Glory Angel successfully seized the Eight Kings' weak point.
At this moment, the space storm had almost completely swallowed the entire small island.
None of the Exotic Beasts on the island survived; they were all swallowed by the space storm and became a part of it.
At this time, the island was like broken porcelain; cracks like spiderwebs appeared on the ground and continued to expand.
A large amount of rubble was Floating and being swallowed by the Space Rift.
The Space Rift was eroding the entire island.
Soon, the island disappeared, leaving behind only a bottomless hole.
The giant cocoon formed by the Space Pelican began to increase its beating frequency.
Thump, thump, thump.
The heartbeat intensified.
Just at this moment, Ye Bai saw a crack appear on the giant cocoon, and the crack gradually spread.
A red bird beak poked out from within.
It was crunching and swallowing the giant cocoon.
A Bird Call resounded throughout the entire space, seemingly announcing the arrival of a king.
A Pet Beast radiating silver-white light from its entire body emerged from within.
Its feathers were silver-white, it had a long tail, and the five characters for benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness were on its tail feathers.
It looked somewhat like a phoenix, yet it was also somewhat different.
Its wings were extremely long, occupying two-thirds of its body, and its feathers were as hard as scales, emitting a luster like metal.
One could see it open its large mouth, from which a terrifying suction force emanated.
The terrifying space storm was swallowed by it as if by a whale, and its feathers also became increasingly resplendent.
A Taiji rune appeared, occupying its entire back.

【Evolution Route 1: None yet, unlocks after the Pet Beast Master reaches Tier 7】
【PS: Swallowing a large amount of space and Wind Type origin allowed the Space Pelican to evolve into the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican. This is a brand-new variant; the Space Pelican, having absorbed massive amounts of energy, did not evolve into the Heaven-Swallowing Pel, nor did it evolve into the Sky-Howling Pel, but rather into the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican, which possesses the abilities of both and has even more monstrous strength.】
"Heaven-Swallowing Pelican, welcome back."
Ye Bai could feel that the connection between him and the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican was tenuous.
This was because he was still at Tier 6, while the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican was already at Tier 7.
He and the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican could no longer achieve a communion of minds.
But one thing worth rejoicing about was that because the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican was of the Space Type, entering his Pet Beast Space took no effort at all.
"Very good, Heaven-Swallowing Pelican, it is truly great that you were able to survive."
This was also the first Tier 7 Pet Beast in Ye Bai's hands.
At this moment, Ye Bai was the true Kuimulang, possessing Tier 7 combat power.
Although he had contracted the Beichen Sky Wolf Blade, at Tier 6 strength, he was still unable to unleash the full power of the Beichen Sky Wolf Blade.
The Heaven-Swallowing Pelican's eyes were filled with tenderness.
If it weren't for Ye Bai sparing no effort to help it and finding such large space crystals for it, it would have long since perished.
The Heaven-Swallowing Pelican also understood very well that even if it could evolve, at most it would only become a Heaven-Swallowing Pel, and could not become a Heaven-Swallowing Pelican possessing phoenix bloodline.
It counted as a side branch of the Heaven-Swallowing Phoenix.
"Heaven-Swallowing Pelican, since you have finished evolving, let us not stay here any longer."
The Heaven-Swallowing Pelican flapped its wings violently, and it immediately brought Ye Bai to a new small island.
"You go back to the Pet Beast Space and rest well, Heaven-Swallowing Pelican."
Ye Bai stroked the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican's head.
At this time, the Heaven-Swallowing Pelican transformed into a stream of light and submerged into Ye Bai's Pet Beast Space.
