Lin Yuan turned to smile at Zhou Luo and said, “We can begin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan and Liu Jie sat astride the Lava Dragon Lizard’s back while Zhou Luo rode at the front of the Lava Dragon Lizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The 10-meter-long Lava Dragon Lizard spread its legs and bolted toward the dimensional hub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Lava Dragon Lizard’s back, Lin Yuan noticed it was much more enjoyable to ride land feys than flying feys.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the sky, there were only clouds for as far as the eye could see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, riding a fey that was charging about on land allowed him to take in the ephemeral scenery around, which was an incomparable delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the evolving Class 3 dimensional rift was interminable ocean water that emanated a distinct salty redolence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes and inhaled deeply to calm his nerves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that a battle to the death was imminent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood would be shed, and deaths were unavoidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Lin Yuan having taken out his Master’s Extreme Token and showing it to Liu Jie and Zhou Luo as a means of boosting morale, he could not repeat the action flippantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew whether the enemy camp scoped out by Liu Jie’s Hurricane Owlet Moths was hiding a greater peril.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, during the evolution of the dimensional rift, an obstacle of turbulence would be formed outside the dimensional hub’s inner layer’s source-type lifeforms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the evolution of the Class 3 dimensional rift into Class 4, the dimensional obstacle at the surface would be as strong as Diamond quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either Zhou Luo or Liu Jie would be able to break through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if the dimensional rift’s evolution was to Class 5, the dimensional obstacle at the surface could only be broken by the power of Suzerain and above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In order to prevent the dimensional rift’s evolution, breaking the dimensional obstacle was the minimum requirement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Lin Yuan could not show his trump card until they arrived at the dimensional hub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan kept this notion to himself, but the other two men were well aware.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Luo was about to speak, but he hesitated and turned to look at Lin Yuan and Liu Jie. He noticed the resolute expressions on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Luo smirked and turned back to stroke his buddy, the Lava Dragon Lizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His own gaze became determined as a grin spread across his face. He seemed to have come to some sort of decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yuan’s expression suddenly tensed, and he sensed the report coming from the Source Sand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Prepare for battle. The enemy is here,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five source-type items were at the dimensional hub. The aura they emitted generated dimensional ripples at the dimensional hub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These dimensional ripples widened the doorway linking to the water world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to the five pieces of source-type items was an opaque glowing mass of rainbow light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A transparent light yellow shell covered the glowing mass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were also remnants of shattered transparent light yellow pieces near the five pieces of source-type items.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, there used to be a transparent light yellow shell around the five pieces of source-type items as well, but it was broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A well-put-together man wearing an outfit adorned with many gemstones stood next to the dimensional hub.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hair was grey, his face was deathly pale, and his eyes were a dull gray that was completely devoid of the spark of life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nonetheless, flecks of light occasionally streaked past the man’s eyes, giving him a less lifeless deportment. Instead, they made him look extremely treacherous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tall man with a head of short dark green hair walked up to stand by the gray-haired man’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lord Hunting-Ashes, I’ve already sent out the people you designated as per your instructions. But those people—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall, dark green-haired man was not done speaking when he was interrupted by the gray-haired man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just sent them out as I instructed. Have the rest of the people finished drinking the medicine I instructed you to distribute?” He impatiently snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark green-haired man trembled and hastily replied, “Yes, Lord Hunting-Ashes. They’re all done drinking.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gray-haired man touched the waist of his attire, namely the black jewels that were about the size of quail eggs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you drink the medicine too?” he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark green-haired man gnashed his teeth as sweat dripped down his face. He anxiously pulled out a bottle and gulped down the gray liquid contents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gray-haired man extended his arm and patted the other man’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten minutes later, bring me the people who drank the medicine,” he ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark green-haired man retreated hurriedly and proceeded to carry out the gray-haired man’s order.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gray-haired man stood at the same spot for about five minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gray-haired man kept his gaze fixed on the evolving Class 3 dimensional hub during those five minutes. His face split into a grotesque smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The evolving dimensional rift is completely cut off from the outside space. I don’t need to listen to Lord Seventh Page War’s orders. The stupid crow is dead now, which means so are the three king-class experts under it. No issue. I, Hunting-Ashes, shall accomplish Lord Seventh Page War’s final order,” he murmured under his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grey-haired man gently clapped his hands, and a gray fly appeared nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that same time, a screen seemed to have disappeared around the area, revealing a pot of thriving thorn apple.\u003C\u002Fp>",970,"2026-05-30T03:57:34.738Z","2026-06-01T04:30:14.553Z",1,"novelbin.me","9814fa03fd10b7c4e9121a098bb70da06c8bff2842863490186b0eceb7abe618","fey-evolution-merchant-chapter-499","fey-evolution-merchant-chapter-497",3121,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffey-evolution-merchant-cover.jpg"]
