Fey Evolution Merchant-Chapter 2468 - The Abyss Red Lotus!
2468 The Abyss Red Lotus!
With just a seed, the Abyss Red Lotus could continuously gather all the fire-elemental energy in the abyssal world. Thus, its life rank had to be at least as high as the Sea-Consuming Emperor Sunflower from the main world.
There was no way that Lin Yuan would let such a lifeform out of his grasp and would definitely form a contract with it.
If he really could not form a contract with it, he could provide it with source-type power to help it to grow. This would cause it to form a positive attachment to Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan had already tested this on Rising Lizard and White Pavilion.
The attachment formed from helping a lifeform to gain intelligence by providing it with faith power was even stronger than blood ties. White Pavilion felt more attached to Lin Yuan than it did to White Speak.
“The two of you, lead the way. I hope you won’t disappoint me!”
Lin Yuan’s words caused Carlos and Caroline’s chests to tighten. But they soon relaxed because they truly had no intention of lying to Lin Yuan.
All they did was selectively pick a portion from all that they knew. This was not considered lying.
If they lied, they would have to pay with their lives.
Eternal Source had reached the Afterlife Realm. Thus, his power was akin to a giant mountain that was crushing Carlos and Caroline, preventing them from having thoughts of mutiny.
While Lin Yuan had been waiting for Eternal Source to increase his power, he looked at all the abyssal world’s infrastructure.
The abyssal world’s Dictators had a higher standard of beauty than the Dictators from the marsh world.
Although the infrastructure was completely comprised of rocks in abundant supply in the abyssal world, they had a unique style full of ancient mystery and stern majesty.
The Abyss Great Emperor’s castle was definitely of an even higher class but did not have any style or tried to give off any feeling.
The patterns on the castle’s outside walls had been ground flat, and the carvings on the interior had all been broken by the past thousands of years of impact from the gathering fire-elemental energy. Thus, the interior was in an even worse state than the exterior.
Lin Yuan’s gaze swept past Carlos and Caroline and spotted the image of a formidable demon on a stage that resembled an altar.
The demon was seated on the altar. There was a pulsing unbloomed lotus diagonally in front of the demon. The lotus was continuously absorbing the fire-elemental energy that was flowing around. It seemed to be delighted by being able to absorb fire-elemental energy and was spinning happily.
Lin Yuan was about to use True Data to check on the seed when he heard Morbius’ voice. “Partner, I’ve always said that you have good luck. Looking at how things are, what I said is indeed true! I thought that your biggest opportunity would be encountering Begin Lady. But now, you’ve encountered an even bigger and better opportunity! This Abyss Red Lotus might hold the truth of the abyssal world!”
Lin Yuan looked curious when he heard what Morbius said.
Was the truth of the abyssal world not linked to the Abyss Wombs? What did it have to do with the Abyss Red Lotus?
But Lin Yuan could be certain that the Abyss Red Lotus did not come from an Abyss Womb.
Abyss demons were born from the Abyss Wombs, while the Abyss Red Lotus was unrelated to the Abyss Wombs. Thus, the abyssal world’s foundation should not be connected to the Abyss Red Lotus.
Could it be that the Abyss Wombs came from the Abyss Red Lotus?
Lin Yuan immediately shook the thought out of his head.
The Abyss Red Lotus’ seed contained pure fire-elemental energy as well as the aura of nature that came with all plants. This was very different from the aura of abyss demons.
Morbius sensed what Lin Yuan was thinking and started to explain, “Partner, you’ve misunderstood! Think about the auras of the Abyss Wombs and abyss demons. Neither of their auras have a heavy proportion of fire elements. It seems as though the fire elements were only added on later.
“When abyss demons like the Invisible Demon continue to evolve in the future, the fire-elemental energy in the Demon Matrices will be gone, and they will become dark-type instead. This evolution process means that the fire-elemental energy in the Demon Matrices does not come from the Abyss Wombs’ genes.”
Lin Yuan was silent for a moment before he nodded in agreement. This was indeed true according to the rules of lifeform evolution!
If there were only a few examples, like the Invisible Demon, this could be considered a subsequent mutation.
But the fact was that the Invisible Demon was an entire species, and there were other species that also eventually lost their fire-type as a part of their growth.
But despite gaining the dark-type, it did not come with any obvious characteristics and continued to use its body to fight.
Could it be that the fire-elemental energy of the Abyss Wombs and the entire abyssal world came from the Abyss Red Lotus?
This feeling caused a chill to run up Lin Yuan’s spine.
If his guess was right, this meant that the Abyss Red Lotus’ life rank was almost unreasonably high!
After all, this would make it a lifeform that could affect the life rank of other lifeforms. It was almost a creator of life.
If the Abyss Wombs were the mothers of all the abyss demons in the abyssal world, the Abyss Red Lotus could be said to be the father.
Begin Lady could use its own bloodline to influence all plant-type feys and enabled the experts from the Divine Wood Federation to gain the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline. This was similar to what the Abyss Red Lotus could do.
However, Begin Lady needed to provide a part of itself to hand over its bloodline, which was its river water.
On the other hand, the Abyss Red Lotus could affect the abyss demons with just its aura.
If the abyss demons’ fire-elemental energy was considered to be obtained externally, it meant that the Abyss Red Lotus created the environment of the entire abyssal world.
This was why the Abyss Great Emperor had insisted on keeping the Abyss Red Lotus for himself even after reaching the Afterlife Realm.
While Lin Yuan was comprehending the significance of the Abyss Red Lotus, he heard Morbius’ serious voice say, “Partner, the Abyss Red Lotus is very strong-headed. Not even the Abyss Great Emperor could tame it. You will probably meet with the same result when you try to contract it.
“But I should be able to spirit lock its seed in order to control it. That way, it’ll become your spirit-locked fey! Since you already evolved the Engulfing Flames Heart Mushroom’s grade and quality, you now have a new spot to spirit lock another fey. The Abyss Red Lotus is fire-type, so it is the best choice to be unlocked by the abyssal world’s Endless Gems.”
