CHAPTER 169: CHAPTER 127: EVOLUTIONARY FORM, POWER SOARS

Right after, Lin Chen also told Chen Yun the new name of Xiaobai.

"Advanced Spirit Transformation?" Chen Yun looked at Xiaobai and asked, "Is it about Spiritual Power?"

"Probably not." Lin Chen shook his head.

Chen Yun was a bit skeptical at this point, not because she didn’t believe Lin Chen or Xiaobai, but because the Beast Mirror Institute is a place that values science.

To confirm a new species and level, it needs to be tested to determine if it really is an Advanced Spirit Transformation.

Otherwise, relying only on the word of a Beastmaster clearly lacks credibility.

There aren’t many organizations capable of determining spirit beast levels; the Beast Tamer Guild definitely has the authority and credibility, and as an Evolution Research Academy, the Beast Mirror Institute naturally has the authority and credibility as well.

"Shall we test it?" Chen Yun was eager, but it still required Lin Chen’s consent.

Lin Chen nodded; he was actually eager too.

Also, this is a major event for the Plowhorn Beast clan, being recorded in the archives is a good thing...

After all, it’s equivalent to:

Adding a page to the clan lineage.

"Xiaobai, change back to your original form." Lin Chen, although thinking the new form is much more impressive and cool, still preferred the cute and simple Plowhorn Beast.

"Moo~~"

Xiaobai immediately nodded and transformed back into a Plowhorn Beast.

Lin Chen noticed that although Xiaobai had changed back, the black Divine Pattern on its horn hadn’t disappeared.

"Is this a unique feature of the Kui Spirit Beast?"

Lin Chen touched the horn, thinking this.

...

"Senior brother, I’d like to conduct a quality assessment of the new species."

Chen Yun led Lin Chen and the others in, saying that.

A man lying on a chair in the distance opened his eyes, glanced up and down at Chen Yun, and said, "Oh my, little junior sister, another test subject?"

"Go away." Chen Yun rolled her eyes and said to Lin Chen and the others: "Don’t mind him, my senior brother’s just like that."

The senior finally got up and said, "Come on."

As he spoke, he summoned his spirit beast, a smooth insect with two antennae, as if it were dripping snot.

[Slug Beast]

This type of spirit beast is also called a snot slug, generally weak in attack, but with incredibly strong defense capabilities.

What’s most perplexing is its life force; it can infinitely split, as long as one doesn’t die, it can revive from the brink of death and continue living.

Theoretically, such a spirit beast with this ability should be extremely powerful, yet unfortunately, no matter how its attack abilities are developed, they are nearly zero.

Eventually, it focused entirely on defense, mainly used in testing and similar areas, also known as the "Sand Bag Beast."

This is why this senior, though not a Catalyst Master, can be here.

There’s a saying on Blue Star that if all the Slug Beasts dying every day were lined up, they could circle Blue Star once.

"Who?" The senior let the Slug Beast prepare, then began to ask.

He initially thought it was Lee Zhen, then he thought it was Qin Shaoshao, until the Plowhorn Beast stepped forward.

"Plowhorn Beast shouldn’t be necessary, right?" The senior said.

Lin Chen nodded to Xiaobai, who then immediately stepped forward, its form quickly changing in an instant...

At this moment, Lin Chen very much wanted to shout:

Plowhorn Beast’s evolved form....

Kui Spirit Beast!

But thinking it’s a bit juvenile, with so many people watching, he had to give up.

It was the Little Fox instead that got all excited, shouting and yelling!

Xiaobai transformed into a Kui Spirit Beast, and the senior’s eyes finally lit up, saying:

"Isn’t this a Spirit Ruins Ox?"

After speaking, he immediately denied it, saying, "No, not a Spirit Ruins Ox."

Examining Xiaobai around, he finally said: "If testing spiritual power, my Slug Beast won’t do."

"Just test brute force will be fine." Lin Chen said.

The senior nodded, issued an order for the Slug Beast to prepare, and then told Xiaobai: "Give it your all."

Xiaobai turned back to look at Lin Chen, uncertain, while the latter nodded.

Finally, Xiaobai’s pupils lit up, it raised its head, instantly switching from a cute mode to a fierce mode.

"Moo~"

The current Xiaobai was terrifying, starting off with a "gasification of three bulls," then the number continued to stack up...

Four Bulls

Five Bulls

Six Bulls

.....

"Still rising." Even Lee Zhen and the others got excited.

Seven Bulls

Eight Bulls

Nine Bulls

Ten Bulls

Just when everyone thought it had reached its limit, the eleventh residual shadow appeared.

"11?"

"No, there’s more." Even Chen Yun was so surprised she was speechless.

It’s said, the Plowhorn Beast’s basic skill Iron Horn Impact can reach a maximum of twelve bulls.

But very few Plowhorn Beasts can achieve it.

Sure enough, under everyone’s gaze, the twelfth residual shadow appeared.

Everyone was so shocked they couldn’t speak.

Only Lin Chen squinted...

It probably isn’t the final result yet.

Twelve residual shadows are the peak of an ordinary Plowhorn Beast’s Divine Enlightenment, but it wasn’t Xiaobai’s peak.

Lin Chen had clearly seen Xiaobai’s Iron Horn Impact had already reached the Divine Enlightenment Realm...

As the most challenging level to improve, it should be different, right?

Under Lin Chen’s expectant gaze, Xiaobai’s horn suddenly emitted a dark energy light, and then a phantom quickly returned to Xiaobai...

In an instant, Xiaobai’s entire body was enveloped in a layer of cyan energy light.

Two Layers.

Three Layers.

.....

More and more residual shadows disappeared, but with each layer of shadow returning to the body, the energy light surrounding Xiaobai grew brighter.

"What is this?" Even Lee Zhen and others were dumbfounded.

They had never seen the Plowhorn Beast’s Iron Horn Impact in this form.

As the residual shadows disappeared one by one, the cyan light on Xiaobai turned from pale cyan to extremely dazzling.

Then, with Xiaobai’s horn glowing once more, it finally smashed heavily into the Slug Beast.

"Eek~~~"

The Slug Beast let out a miserable cry, then shattered into pieces in the air, slime splattering everywhere.

At this moment, the senior couldn’t stay calm anymore, he even turned around to ask Chen Yun: "Is this its first evolution?"

"Naturally, it is." Chen Yun said: "Senior, see clearly, it’s only Level 21."

The senior was too shocked to speak, Chen Yun asked again: "Senior, what quality does it belong to?"

Lin Chen and Lee Zhen also eagerly looked at the senior, and even Xiaobai turned back, feeling a bit nervous...

It seemed like an exam~~~

It hoped it didn’t make any mistakes just now.

Should it try again?

The senior also swallowed hard, then said: "What quality does the Beastmaster see?"

"Advanced Spirit Transformation."

"Too low, too low..." Unexpectedly, the senior burst out, saying: "This power is already comparable to Saint Beast Level."

"It can’t be, right." Chen Yun said.

She wasn’t looking down on Lin Chen and Xiaobai, but as a Catalyst Master, she understood the difference in quality between spirit beasts very well.

From Xiaobai, it was clear, in the past, it at most could explode into a gasification of three bulls, now it starts with that.

After evolving to a higher quality, the power boost is quite exaggerated.

"I’m a sandbag, don’t I know?" The senior was even impatiently explaining: "Spirit Beast evolution can be deceptively strong, and naturally underestimated too."

"Advanced Spirit Transformation is just its limit, but not its power limit."
