Chapter 524: Chu Ci’s Growth
Lin Yuan looked at the new Willpower Rune Chu Ci had comprehended. He was surprised by how fast she was growing.
Lin Yuan had been working hard the past six months on increasing his own power and had gone through changes multiple times.
Chu Ci had not fallen behind either.
She already had the Fantasy Obsidian Iron Wild Bull, but now she also had the new Willpower Rune, which was the equivalent of possessing another Fantasy Breed fey.
To other spirit qi professionals who comprehended Willpower Runes, the hardest part of evolving Fantasy Breed feys was increasing their quality.
But with Lin Yuan around, it would be easy to evolve the Vajra Butterfly’s quality to Legend.
The recently-turned 16-year-old Chu Ci essentially had two Fantasy Breed feys.
The thought frightened Lin Yuan.
At 16 years old, one was supposed to be in Year 1 at Redbud Intermediate Spirit Qi Academy, but Chu Ci already had two Fantasy Breed feys.
As long as Chu Ci’s Fantasy Breed feys both evolved to Silver, she would distinguish herself if she attended Redbud Intermediate Spirit Qi Academy.
Moreover, both of Chu Ci’s contracted feys had amazing foundations.
Although Lin Yuan had been hoping that Chu Ci’s fighting style would not be too aggressive, he had to admit that the Obsidian Iron Wild Bull perfectly demonstrated how offense was the best defense.
The Vajra Butterfly was also an exceptional defense-type fey.
Lin Yuan had picked out the Vajra Butterfly for Chu Ci after sorting through numerous defense-type feys.
The Vajra Butterfly’s defensive abilities were considered impressive amongst Bronze-grade feys.
In Lin Yuan’s opinion, the Vajra Butterfly’s true strength did not lie in its innate power but in its outstanding potential for evolution.
If the Vajra Butterfly could evolve to the Jadeite Butterfly, Chu Ci’s defensive abilities would rocket up another level.
The Vajra Butterfly would need to absorb a large amount of pollen from plant-type feys to evolve into the Jadeite Butterfly, after which the plant-type feys’ wood-type attribute would start to slowly change the Vajra Butterfly’s aura.
During this process, pure spirit qi would need to be showered over the Vajra Butterfly in order for it to successfully evolve into the Jadeite Butterfly.
The key ingredient was the pollen from the plant-type feys that it needed to absorb.
The Vajra Butterfly was metal-type, and it would struggle to absorb the pollen from plant-type feys.
Thus, the best way for the Vajra Butterfly to evolve into the Jadeite Butterfly was for it to absorb the pollen from metal- and plant-type feys.
Previously, Lin Yuan had been worried about needing metal- and plant-type feys when he was trying to help Chu Ci contract the Vajra Butterfly. However, now he was not troubled at all over the need to procure the pollen from metal- and plant-type feys.
Jiao Hanzhong’s garden-like Diamond fey storage box already had a few Golden Curtain Peonies, a metal- and plant-type fey.
The Golden Curtain Peony was an admire-type fey that blossomed at the end of the year. Its flowers were larger than bowls and glowed brightly with a metallic luster. It looked like a stack of thin metal pieces.
As an admire-type fey, the Golden Curtain Peony did not have any special uses other than highlighting one’s presence.
However, it was suitable for the Vajra Butterfly to absorb its pollen.
Lin Yuan was now extremely confident of being able to evolve the Vajra Butterfly into the Jadeite Butterfly.
Lin Yuan pondered for a while before seriously saying to Chu Ci, “Since you’re on holiday, you shouldn’t need the Vajra Butterfly to enter battles, right?”
Chu Ci nodded and said, “I don’t think I’ll need the Vajra Butterfly for battle before school starts. I’m going to use the holiday to go on Star Web and watch the Radiance Hundred’s members’ fights.”
Chu Ci’s voice was full of enthusiasm.
Ever since Chu Ci had decided to become a part of the Redbud Hundred, she had set her sights on the Radiance Hundred Sequence.
Chu Ci could gauge how far her abilities were lacking by watching the Radiance Hundred Sequence’s fights.
Knowing her weak points encouraged Chu Ci and motivated her to increase her power.
Lin Yuan was surprised to discover Chu Ci’s ambition. She was aiming for the Radiance Hundred Sequence after such a short time.
However, the Radiance Hundred Sequence members were all devious, and each of them kept their true powers tightly locked away.
They only demonstrated the powers they possessed when they first entered the Radiance Hundred Sequence.
Lin Yuan decided against telling Chu Ci about the Radiance Hundred Sequence’s true power for fear of killing her passion.
Lin Yuan wanted to cultivate her ambition.
“Leave this Vajra Butterfly with me. Let me see if I can nurture it into the Jadeite Butterfly. If I’m successful, you’ll be able to increase your power again when it becomes a Fantasy Breed.”
Chu Ci activated her spiritual energy to summon the Vajra Butterfly.
Chu Ci would never reject Lin Yuan’s suggestion and his willingness to put in effort for her.
Chu Ci was no longer the naive girl who did not have any contracted feys. She now understood the difficulty behind evolving a fey’s quality and transforming a fey.
Chu Ci knew how hard Lin Yuan had to have worked in order to secure her first fey.
She knew he had probably used up all his resources.
Lin Yuan was not one to openly express his feelings, but Chu Ci had grown up with him and knew how kind he really was.
The Vajra Butterfly was not just a fey that Lin Yuan had strengthened—the first face it had seen when it hatched belonged to Lin Yuan.
When it saw Lin Yuan leaning against the bed, the Vajra Butterfly immediately flew over to rest on his nose.
The Vajra Butterfly fluttered its wings, its wingspan covering half of Lin Yuan’s face.
The dust that fell from the Vajra Butterfly’s fluttering wings made Lin Yuan sneeze five times in succession.
After sneezing, Lin Yuan felt unusually relaxed.
Lin Yuan kept the Vajra Butterfly into his Spirit Lock spatial zone and prepared to find the right time to nurture it.
Before nurturing the Vajra Butterfly, Lin Yuan first needed to nurture the Golden Curtain Peonies.
