Chapter 38: Xiaolan’s Advancement
Chapter 38: Xiaolan's Advancement
Thus, Xiaolan became a member of this courtyard.
Usually, when Su Yun was cultivating in the courtyard, Xiao Yixian and Xiaolan would fly around in the sky.
However, they wouldn't fly too far, as the Monster Beast Mountain Range was nearby.
There were other flying monsters in the sky, and if they encountered a flying monster of the second rank or higher, they wouldn't be able to escape.
Because of this, Xiao Yixian was scolded by Su Yun.
A month later, Su Yun was at the Mitter Auction House.
Yafei took out a magic core from her storage ring.
"Master Han, this is what you wanted, a second-rank Blue Eagle magic core. It was really impossible to find a third-rank one."
Yafei spoke respectfully to Su Yun.
Su Yun nodded and stored the magic core in his system space.
Blue Eagles, as a type of monster beast, generally only reach the second rank when they mature. To reach the third rank, the Blue Eagle itself must have exceptional talent.
Reaching the fourth rank is even more difficult; it requires either a bloodline mutation or consuming some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, otherwise, it's simply impossible.
During this time, Su Yun had only managed to obtain a few first-rank Blue Eagle magic cores through the Xiao family, the Jia Lie family, the Mitter Auction House, and Luo Qian Dust.
After all, he was looking for a specific type of monster beast, and it had only been a month.
Not every first-rank monster beast necessarily produces a magic core, and Blue Eagles, being flying monsters, are not easy to kill.
Su Yun took out a card, paid Yafei, and then left the Mitter Auction House.
Yafei watched Su Yun's departing figure, her beautiful brows furrowing into a frown.
During this time, with her extraordinary abilities, she had already established a firm foothold in Wutan City.
She had a clear understanding of the situation in Wutan City. She knew that Han Li was the biggest local snake in Wutan City.
He had significant relationships with all the influential powers in Wutan City that were worth noticing. As for those without connections, they had already been annihilated.
Not only was Han Li powerful, but he was also decisive in killing. He used two fourth-grade pills to instigate the Xiao family and the Jia Lie family to exterminate the Oba family.
Elder Kuang Tang, with his old and cunning experience, even he had spent two years trying to win him over without success.
Before coming to Wutan City, she was full of confidence, but now, even she had to admit that Han Li was very tricky.
However, it was impossible for her to just give up. The value of a fourth-grade alchemist was immense.
Moreover, a fourth-grade alchemist who could refine peak fourth-grade pills.
Given more time to grow...
A fifth-grade, that's an existence that could stand on equal footing with a Dou Emperor.
A hint of envy flashed across Yafei's face. If she could become such an existence, perhaps she could control her own destiny.
Although she was a direct descendant of the Mitter family, the cruelty of a large family was immense.
A woman like her, without cultivation talent but with stunning beauty, was most likely to be arranged in a political marriage by her family...
Yafei's expression showed unwillingness, and a struggle flashed across her face.
If she could have a fifth-grade alchemist standing behind her, then even a powerful family like the Mitter family wouldn't dare to touch her easily.
Controlling her own destiny...
A firm determination flashed in Yafei's heart.
Su Yun returned home and approached Xiaolan.
The system's functions often required him to explore on his own.
Scanning and recycling were straightforward.
But fusion was different. This function had a lot of operational space, and correspondingly, it required a lot of time to explore.
When he first encountered Xiaolan, he wondered if it was possible to fuse a magic core with Xiaolan.
He had tried many times this month, and without a doubt, all attempts failed.
However, he didn't give up. As time went on, he came up with a feasible plan.
Using a magic core from a Blue Eagle, the same type of monster as Xiaolan, might just work.
A while ago, he had obtained several first-rank Blue Eagle magic cores, but he failed again.
However, this failure was different from the previous ones.
In the past, the system would always display, "Ding, detected unfeasible plan, fusion failed."
But with the Blue Eagle's magic core, it was different, "Ding, feasible fusion plan detected.
Three first-rank Blue Eagle magic cores, one second-rank Blue Eagle magic core, and one first-rank Blue Eagle.
Can be fused into a second-rank Blue Eagle, requiring the consumption of one second-rank magic core."
Su Yun stroked Xiaolan's azure feathers with his hand.
If Xiaolan could attain the strength of a second-rank, he would feel more at ease.
He was now not far from reaching the Dou Spirit level. After the breakthrough, he planned to head to the Tagore Desert to seek the Qinglian Earthheart Fire.
At that time, he definitely wouldn't take Xiao Yixian with him. The Tagore Desert was not like Wutan City.
There, mercenaries gathered, and snake people lurked, with many strong individuals like Dou Spirit and Dou King. He couldn't guarantee Xiao Yixian's safety.
So, it was better to leave Xiao Yixian in Wutan City.
Thinking of Xiao Yixian, Su Yun couldn't help but picture her happy, silly smile every time he returned home.
This silly girl.
A trace of worry crossed Su Yun's face, the Woeful Poison Body...
He still hadn't decided when to let Xiao Yixian activate the Woeful Poison Body.
He now had a way to handle the three different types of heavenly flames, but he still hadn't found the other materials.
Su Yun took a deep breath, his hands clenched tightly, not dwelling too much on this matter.
Instead of worrying all day, it was better to fill his daily schedule and strive to grow stronger.
"System, fuse the three first-rank Blue Eagle magic cores, one second-rank Blue Eagle magic core, and Xiaolan."
"Ding, feasible fusion plan detected, requiring the consumption of one second-rank magic core. Proceed with fusion?"
"Fusion!"
Following Su Yun's command, in the system space, three first-rank Blue Eagle magic cores, one second-rank Blue Eagle magic core, and another second-rank magic core quietly disappeared.
A strange energy merged into Xiaolan's body, causing visible changes.
Xiaolan's body elongated, its azure feathers became glossier, its claws lengthened and sharpened.
Feeling the changes in its body, Xiaolan let out a long howl to the sky, emitting a high-pitched cry, its voice carrying a soul-stirring power, its eagle eyes becoming sharper.
Su Yun reached out again to stroke Xiaolan's feathers. Xiaolan lowered its head and nuzzled Su Yun's cheek.
It chirped softly in Su Yun's ear.
Although a second-rank monster beast didn't have much intelligence, Xiaolan vaguely felt that its transformation was brought about by Su Yun.
"Ah, how did Xiaolan become like this?"
At this moment, Xiao Yixian, who was in the room, heard the noise in the courtyard, came out, and asked in surprise and delight.
Xiao Yixian, holding her skirt, ran up to Su Yun.
"Brother, did you do this?"
Admiration filled Xiao Yixian's face. In her eyes, her Brother Su Yun was omnipotent, capable of achieving anything.
Su Yun pinched Xiao Yixian's cheek with his finger, feeling its softness and elasticity, and the unique fragrance of a young girl.
Su Yun smiled, neither admitting nor denying it.
