Dong Huang is an ancient country with several thousand years of history, its civilization forming far earlier than other countries.

In ancient times, Dong Huang had several dynasties, all of which perished for various reasons.

These dynasties had one thing in common: they all liked to establish their capitals in the same place.

It wasn't until the modern era that the Beast Taming Association finally moved the capital, and those political centers of past dynasties are now referred to as the Ancient Capital.

The Ancient Capital has always been a strategic location for military strategists. Countless wars have occurred here over the millennia. As a result, it has some of the heaviest Yin energy within Dong Huang, gathering a large number of undead creatures.

Outside the Ancient Capital, a first-tier city, lies an ancient battlefield plain.

Dark clouds linger, the sky is dim, and the ground is covered with countless bones. A large number of skeleton soldiers wander about.

In addition, countless undead interweave within, existing between reality and illusion.

On the desolate land, deathly energy pervades, truly a paradise for the undead.

However, in such a place, someone traverses the sky without a care.

"Chirp!!!"

This is a giant bird with a sky-blue body, beautiful blue feathers, bright colors, and a light and graceful figure.

Its wings are as green as the dawn sky, and the soft light it emits dispels all Yin energy in its path, causing the undead below to involuntarily stop and not dare to move.

If there were a Beast Tamer with good knowledge, they would recognize that this is a Green Spirit Wind Bird with the bloodline of a phoenix.

Moreover, it is at least a Green Spirit Wind Bird whose growth level has reached the King tier.

On top of the azure giant bird, a woman with short brown hair, casually wearing a white lab coat, stands silently, looking at the information on her phone.

"Plants, gardener?"

"It seems the ruins were successfully deciphered. Faster than I imagined."

Unfortunately, she glanced at the surrounding environment, there were no plant-type pets that could farm, but there were piles of skeleton soldiers.

Facing Shi Yu, who didn't treat her like an outsider at all, she really wanted to send a skeleton soldier to help Shi Yu farm.

At this moment, she rubbed her temples with her slender fingers. This trip to the ruins was more exhausting than she had imagined. Shi Yu's matter could wait.

"Wait until you pass the professional assessment," she replied.

...

"Have to wait, huh."

In the training villa in Pingcheng District, Icefield City, Shi Yu stretched lazily, looking bored at the message on his phone.

He had asked Lu Qingyi about plant-type pets, thinking that she would directly throw out several options for him to choose.

But the professional assessment... it's coming soon.

Should be about four months away?

By then, his Beast Taming Space should be at level two, and Eleven should be almost at the Transcendence level.

At this moment, after returning home, Eleven immediately ran off to train.

This battle against the ice dragon was a huge setback for it!

At that time, if it had been a real ice dragon cub, not a phantom, Eleven felt like it would have kneeled.

It had to work even harder!

"Ji!"

Qing Mian Insect circled around Shi Yu, wanting to continue filling out a few more applications, addicted to filling them out.

"That's it. This kind of thing depends on your first instinct."

"It's not like you can change it whenever you want."

Shi Yu put away his phone and shooed away Qing Mian Insect, sharing his experience of answering multiple-choice questions with Qing Mian Insect.

The more you change this kind of thing, the more mistakes you make.

Moreover, good heavens, the skills and materials were almost ready. If Qing Mian Insect suddenly said it wanted to evolve into something else, wouldn't that be a waste of effort?

Shi Yu thought that going the dream butterfly route of dream manifestation was very good.

"Ji, ji."

Qing Mian Insect looked regretful, then paused slightly and looked at Eleven's departing back.

After a moment, it also crawled over, wanting to train with Eleven.

Shi Yu had explained to it that all the applications were for evolution, to evolve into a stronger species.

If it had been before, Qing Mian Insect might not have understood what that meant, but now that its intelligence had been slightly awakened, it understood what it meant.

Evolution represented an opportunity to change fate.

As a small worm commonly found everywhere, at the bottom of the food chain, one could see how humble it was from the fact that it fled to Shi Yu's house to escape predators.

However, from its love of dreaming, dreaming of itself soaring in the sky in different forms, it also showed that Qing Mian Insect was not satisfied with the status quo.

It wanted to change its destiny, but because it had no intelligence before, only instinct, it was ignorant and didn't know what to do at all.

Or rather, even if it knew, it might not be able to do it, unable to change anything.

Although Qing Mian Insect's evolution conditions were very simple, that was for Qing Mian Insect contracted by a Beast Tamer. The probability of wild Qing Mian Insect evolving was probably less than one in ten thousand.

"Ji, ji."

But that was before. Now, Qing Mian Insect, which possessed a little intelligence, also knew what it should do to change its fate.

Work hard and train to change your fate!

To be honest, this was not the concept that Shi Yu conveyed to Qing Mian Insect, which had just awakened its intelligence. The first one to convey this concept was Eleven...

This training maniac, the disciplined bear, had been telling Qing Mian Insect the benefits of training since it was very young.

This was the only way to change fate, but at that time, Qing Mian Insect didn't understand at all. It was forced to train.

But now, Qing Mian Insect finally understood what becoming stronger represented, and influenced by Eleven, as well as the temptation of evolution in Shi Yu's words, it actually decided to actively follow Eleven to train.

This was something that Qing Mian Insect, which only wanted to eat and sleep before, could never have done.

"Ji ji..." In the blink of an eye, Qing Mian Insect was gone.

Shi Yu watched and fell into deep thought.

Worm worm has also grown up and become sensible.

But it seemed he forgot to tell the insect that the evolution route he prepared for it was similar to a dream butterfly. You can become stronger by dreaming and sleeping. Why are you running to suffer with Eleven?

With that effort, it would be better to sleep more.

Learn how to control dreams, lucid dreams, and clear dreams.

Lucid dreaming is not a skill, but a physiological phenomenon in which one remains awake while dreaming.

In this state, the dreamer can remain conscious while sleeping and even change the dream.

Even an ordinary person can learn it with training.

Before Shi Yu transmigrated, he had tried to do similar things, but he didn't seem to have that talent, and he only succeeded once or twice after a long time.

That was on Earth without extraordinary power, but in this world, lucid dreaming is very common, after all, there are dream beasts.

Generally speaking, dream beasts can easily control dreams, their own dreams, and the dreams of other creatures.

They are natural lucid dreamers. Shi Yu hopes that Qing Mian Insect can also do similar things, which is very important for building dream illusions in the future.

"Forget it, let it train with Eleven for a while, it's good to use Eleven as an example."

"When you are tired from training, you will sleep more soundly."

Today is a day worth celebrating. Shi Yu plans to give himself a day off and not add points. He needs to combine work and rest occasionally.

To be precise, he plans to study the relic orb and how to turn the emptiness stone into an evolution material.

As for the dragon whiskers, Shi Yu thought about it and decided to leave them for now.

What if this is an important prop for starting the ice dragon ruins? It would be bad if he ruined it.

Moreover, the current Qing Mian Insect simply can't use this material to strengthen its insect silk.

After all, its insect silk hasn't reached the pinnacle level yet.

This is Shi Yu's next stage goal.

In the next period of time, Shi Yu plans to focus on cultivating Qing Mian Insect. Eleven's points can be put on hold for now. He plans to let it grind in its combination skills.

Combination skills require self-coordination even with the skill proficiency guarantee. This cannot be completely relied on the illustrated handbook.

It is said that professional-level battles are all about combination skills.

Master-level battles are all about the strength of pet beast mysteries.

The creation of combination skills and mysteries tests the Beast Tamer's imagination and wisdom.

This kind of thing is more difficult to train than a single skill. Pet beasts often need to put in more effort than training a single skill.

All Shi Yu can do is help Eleven lay a good foundation, and then they can slowly study all kinds of strange combination skills and mysteries together.

He should focus on Worm worm for a little while...

And Shi Yu is also very curious how many times he can add points to a perfect skill to reach the pinnacle level.

Worm silk's current weakness period of less than eight hours is nothing to Shi Yu. It is perfect for experimentation.

After Worm silk reaches the pinnacle level, it will usher in a qualitative change.

That is attribute change.

Depending on the food ingested within a period of time, Qing Mian Insect can attach different attribute effects to the pinnacle-level worm silk it uses.

If it eats thunder-type resources for a period of time, the worm silk will be upgraded to electric worm silk, which has a slight paralyzing effect.

If it eats ice-type resources for a period of time, the worm silk will change into ice-like worm silk, which can freeze enemies after being wrapped around them.

It sounds strong, but it's actually just flashy. After all, at this time, worm silk is at most comparable to a proficient low-level skill.

In short, it is because of this nature that Shi Yu is thinking about what the dragon whiskers can strengthen its worm silk into.

Or rather, what the emptiness stone can strengthen the worm silk into.

Cutting off the boundary line of space?

Shi Yu feels like he is daydreaming...

"Orb, oh orb, can you hear me?" Shi Yu finally looked at the relic orb in his hand and activated his telepathy talent, hoping to hear traces of history.
