Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 71: Mythology
In a fleeting moment, Shi Yu snapped out of that state.
However, that form had left a deep impression on Shi Yu.
The Holy Spring, also known as the Evolutionary Holy Spring, had a slim chance of enhancing a pet's evolution potential during the process of stimulating its potential.
Shi Yu hadn't held much hope initially, as he hadn't heard of any evolved form of the Iron-eating Beast.
But what Eleven was experiencing now seemed to be no simple matter.
If that form was indeed the evolved form of the Iron-eating Beast, it certainly looked more suitable for battle than the current Iron-eating Beast!
A physique far exceeding that of ordinary Iron-eating Beasts, coupled with a suit of metallic armor, looked like it was born for battle, no, for war.
Unlike the current Iron-eating Beasts, which could also battle, but were clearly more suited to acting cute.
The instant image he had just seen actually reminded Shi Yu of a story circulating on Earth.
Legend has it that in ancient times, the Yellow Emperor fought Chiyou, and all the gods and Buddhas appeared, even employing many birds and beasts as battle pets.
Among them, there was a battle pet called the Iron-eating Beast. Its fur was a mix of black and white, its armor was as black as lacquer, it ate iron and drank water, and its excrement could be used as weapons, as sharp as steel, with unparalleled combat power.
The demon god Chiyou raised two of them, one well-trained and sturdy. Chiyou trained it to be his mount, equipping it with various weapons and armor.
However, because the Iron-eating Beast was so incredibly cute, Chiyou treated the other Iron-eating Beast as his pet. Later, in the final battle with the Yellow Emperor, Chiyou rode the Iron-eating Beast he treated as a pet because he was in such a hurry…
In the end, Chiyou was directly screwed over by this panda. During the final battle with the Yellow Emperor, Chiyou was beheaded by the Yinglong, who was invited by the Yellow Emperor to help, because his mount was useless!
Of course, this mythological short story was a meme in every sense of the word.
However, even as a meme, it showed that the status of the Iron-eating Beast seemed to be very special.
The truth of history was impossible to verify. If the Iron-eating Beast was really the mount of the demon god, Lord of War, Chiyou, then it was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
After all, although Chiyou lost, who was his opponent?
Yinglong, the ancient mythological dragon god of creation, the true dragon and ancestral dragon of mythology, one of the four great dragon gods!
During the battle between the Yellow Emperor and Chiyou, Yinglong helped the Yellow Emperor fight for the throne and killed Chiyou and Kuafu in the Antarctic;
He helped Dayu control the floods by drawing rivers with his tail, opening the Dragon Gate, and capturing Wuzhiqi. He was a peerless god of war with the number one mythological record.
Even if the Iron-eating Beast wasn't his opponent, to be able to participate in such a battle, it would have to be at least a mythological creature, right?
"I'm overthinking again."
Shi Yu quickly stopped his fantasies.
He had already transmigrated, and it was a different world. He shouldn't let his imagination run wild.
Even if the Iron-eating Beast had an evolved form, its race level would definitely not span too much. Commander-level or Monarch-level would be the most, and mythology was just wishful thinking.
"But…"
But looking at it from another perspective, since such a bizarre thing as transmigration had happened, perhaps the various historical myths of Earth weren't that simple?
Shi Yu fell into deep thought. Just then, with a "splash," the little Iron-eating Beast in the Evolutionary Holy Spring was scooped up by a branch and thrown to the ground.
[It's over.]
The voice of the Ancient Tree of Life entered Shi Yu's and the Iron-eating Beast's ears.
Shi Yu came back to his senses and looked at the wet Eleven.
"What, it's over?"
"But it hasn't evolved yet."
Ancient Tree of Life: ?
[The evolutionary spring water is not enough for it to evolve. It only activates its weak ancient bloodline. The real path to evolution is for you to explore on your own.]
Grandma Ancient Tree of Life stretched out her branch again, wanting to take Shi Yu and the Iron-eating Beast away from here.
"Ah…" Shi Yu looked at Eleven.
At this time, Eleven didn't think about evolving or not evolving. Instead, it subconsciously clenched its fists.
"Ying?"
It really felt like a rebirth.
This feeling of vigorous physical strength made it feel like even if its training volume doubled, it wouldn't be a problem?
Shi Yu: "…"
Shi Yu knew that after its physical fitness increased, what Eleven would think about wouldn't be that it could fight longer, but that it could train longer.
"Okay, we'll leave now."
Shi Yu took Eleven back into the Beast Taming Space. Then, he grabbed the branch again and chose to leave the forest.
It seemed that he was daydreaming.
The evolutionary spring water wasn't enough for Eleven to evolve. However, it seemed that he had still gotten good news with this opportunity.
That was, the Iron-eating Beast really had the possibility of evolving, but the method was unknown.
The scope of "unknown" was very broad. Who knew if he could find it in his lifetime.
"It's good not to evolve."
Shi Yu thought silently as he walked. Although that evolved form looked more capable of fighting and more majestic, how could it be used as a pillow or a big bed if it was so hard?
So not evolving wasn't a big problem. Anyway, he had the Skill Index. If he was lucky enough to teach it a few mythical abilities in the future, even if it still maintained this form, who would dare to underestimate the Iron-eating Beast?
But if it could maintain the giant panda form usually and transform during battle, that would be great… He was really greedy.jpg.
A moment later.
Shi Yu dazedly returned to the entrance he had just been at.
This forest was like a big maze. If it weren't for the branch leading the way, he wouldn't have been able to walk out on his own.
"How is it?"
"What did you gain?"
Feng, the president, who was still waiting outside, asked immediately after Shi Yu came out.
Shi Yu's Iron-eating Beast didn't look simple, so he must have gained a lot. Old Feng was convinced.
"My physique has been successfully strengthened, and my physical fitness has increased a lot, probably doubled."
Shi Yu judged.
"Really?" This number clearly surprised President Feng.
"Yes, the most important thing is that it seems to have also improved its evolution potential. The Iron-eating Beast may still have the possibility of evolving." Shi Yu said.
These words clearly surprised President Feng even more.
"That's amazing."
"In this regard, you can ask Lin Hongnian and his daughter for advice. This father and daughter have been studying the evolution of Iron-eating Beasts for many years. You may be able to share information."
"Oh, I don't even need to remind you, since you're in the Bamboo Stone Martial Arts Center." President Feng laughed.
In this way, the gains were very good.
"Thank you, Monarch Ancient Tree of Life." President Feng said to a pile of ordinary-looking trees.
Because this entire forest was actually a clone of the Monarch Ancient Tree of Life, or rather, plants controlled by it.
No one knew where its main body was.
"Thank you (for your Super Skill)." Shi Yu also thanked the Monarch Ancient Tree of Life.
He would definitely not let down this Super Skill, and he would definitely develop it to a transcendent level!
However, that was a long, long time in the future.
Shi Yu didn't want to be sent away directly because he was teaching a Super Skill, and then have the whole village come to eat.
"Where are we going next? Is the battle over there? Do you want to go take a look again?" Shi Yu still couldn't forget the illusion technique of the little girl.
President Feng: "What's so good about a trainee-level competition? Your journey is in the professional examination hall. Cough, but before that, why don't we hurry back to Pingcheng and try the ruins again?"
