CHAPTER 417: CHAPTER 327: EVOLVE! INSTANT THUNDER SHADOW CAT!_2

"Moli, congratulations!"

Chen Mo rubbed Moli, finding that her fur became even smoother after evolution, and the touch was even better!

Immediately, he checked the information on the End Cat.

[Spiritual Beast: ??? (Unnamed)]

[Attribute: Electric Shadow Type]

[Growth Level: Commander Second Rank]

[Species Level: Monarch Ninth Rank]

[Mastered Skills: Shadow Dive (Superb), Shadow Claw (Perfect), Thunder Teeth (Perfect), Electric Charge (Perfect), Pursue Light (Superb), Instant Thunder Nine Strikes (Proficient)...]

[Equipped Entries: Shadow Trial Master, Apprentice Assassin...]

[Available Entries: 0 (12)]

"The species level directly rose from Leader Fifth Rank to Monarch Ninth Rank, which is already the endpoint for the vast majority of Spiritual Beasts!"

But this is not Moli’s final evolution form. Through the research of Moli’s gene sequence, Chen Mo knows that Moli’s lightning shadow evolution plan has two stages of evolution or even more!

The future looks promising.

"Moni?" (Chen Mo, what is this evolution form called?)

Moli asked softly.

"This is a new evolution form, which has not been named yet. You are the first evolved form, so you should choose a name for yourself!"

Chen Mo smiled warmly.

The End Cat thought for a long time but still couldn’t come up with a suitable name.

It was the first time it felt that choosing a nice name was really difficult.

"Meow?" (Why don’t you do it?)

"Then let’s call it Instant Thunder Shadow Cat!"

Chen Mo thought for a moment and said with a smile.

"Meow!"

Moli nodded, very pleased with the name.

"Squeak～"

At this moment, the Time Brown Spirit floated to Chen Mo’s side, handing over the complete video of the End Cat’s evolution process it had just recorded to Chen Mo.

This video, along with the detailed evolution plan, would probably cause quite a stir if uploaded to the Spirit Master academic website.

"It’s a pity that only mutant electric End Cats can choose this evolution path, so it may not be feasible to make money by selling the evolution route."

Immediately after, Chen Mo forwarded the video to Dr. Xu Zhongming.

In the research of the End Cat’s evolution plan, Dr. Xu had provided a lot of help.

He might still be continuing his help with the research.

He must not let Dr. Xu’s efforts go to waste.

After watching the video, Dr. Xu Zhongming was somewhat emotional.

The "puzzle piece" that he couldn’t find no matter what, Chen Mo found it!

If he remembered correctly, Chen Mo had discovered at least four different Spiritual Beast evolution paths within just half a year.

"Young people nowadays are truly remarkable!"

"Moli, why don’t you spar with Jiu Bao? Let’s see what improvements have been made after the evolution."

Chen Mo was very curious about the enhancements brought about by the End Cat’s lightning shadow evolution.

"Meow!" (Okay!)

"Ooh～" (I will suppress my strength to Commander First Rank～)

The Wish-making White Fox was also interested.

The moment Chen Mo shouted "Start the match," the Wish-making White Fox and the End Cat transformed into a white shadow and a black shadow, engaging in a fierce battle.

The speed of the two Spiritual Beasts burst was beyond what Chen Mo’s naked eyes could capture.

In just one second, they had already exchanged blows several times.

Moli’s biggest change after evolution was in speed and attack power.

Clearly, it was dozens of meters away from you one second, and the next second it appeared silently behind you.

It truly interpreted what it meant to be "elusive."

As for the attack aspect, after the two Crystal Cores merged into one, all of Moli’s moves carried the abilities of another attribute.

For example, the simple use of Shadow Claw would also contain the power of lightning, significantly enhancing its power.

In other words, no matter what move Moli used, it could achieve a combo effect.

Besides that, it could transform its body into shadow or lightning, making it the ultimate assassin.

But in the end, Xiao Jiu still won.

Xiao Jiu exhibited the [As You Wish] domain, which it awakened after advancing to Monarch in the mysterious series.

Within the domain, the Wish-making White Fox’s luck would be overwhelmingly good – hitting the opponent even with eyes closed randomly, or dodging an attack without much effort.

Whereas its opponent would become very unlucky, with moves not hitting being the least of concerns, experiencing ultra-low probability events like move failure harming themselves or stumbling over occurring frequently.

"Meow..."

The End Cat originally was somewhat proud in its heart, but this pride quickly faded after battling with the Wish-making White Fox.

Even with evolution, it couldn’t change the fact that its power was at the bottom of the team...

It still needs more grounding!

"You’ve already done very well."

Chen Mo rubbed the fluffy head of the little guy.

Judging from the speed and burst power Moli had just demonstrated, it could already hunt some lower rank Lords with low defensive power.

-----

After helping Moli complete the evolution, Chen Mo and Chen Meng began their journey in the Spirit Realm.

The first stop was Thundercliff.

The two revisited the past, visiting the Langlang Mountain wolf pack, and the Ancient Thunder Dragon of the Thunder Dragon Tribe.

To Chen Mo’s surprise, a clone of the Ancient Thunder Dragon and a clone of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox had gone "touring" to other places in the Spirit Realm!

The second stop, Purple Coral Island in the Vortex Sea.

When Chen Mo arrived on this small island, he found the entire island had become a sea of flowers, with various colors of Spirit Flowers and Spirit Grass in full bloom, looking even better than when managed by the Silver Dragon Palace.

The surfing otters managed it very well.

Seeing Chen Mo, these surfing otters were very happy and eagerly pounced over wishing to "snuggle" with him.

Their Tata handed over all the Spirit Coins earned from selling Spirit Plants during this period to Chen Mo, hoping to exchange for tasty food.

Chen Mo suddenly felt that most wild Spiritual Beasts are actually very straightforward and friendly.

They are easily satisfied; just provide them with a stable living environment and delicious food, and you can establish pure friendships with them.

Finally, before leaving, the Wish-making White Fox helped them resupply their fire source, while Chen Mo made hundreds of delicious grilled fish for them.

To thank this group of surfing otters for the efforts they have put into tending to the Spirit Plants during this time.

The third stop, Mao Mao City.

Night Dream Cat Emperor was very pleased upon seeing Moli’s evolution form and grandly awarded Chen Mo a shadow-type Legendary Resource "Heart of the Shadow Dragon."

This significantly enhances the shadow attribute talents of Spiritual Beasts and greatly increases the power of shadow-type moves.

Chen Mo, along with his Spiritual Beasts, opened a grilled fish shop in the city center of Mao Mao City, cooking fish while gathering information on the Spiritual Beasts in Mao Mao City...

Because the grilled fish they made was extremely delicious, they even left behind a legend of a gourmand god.

Naturally, they left a mark there.

The fourth stop, Qingqiu Secret Realm...

Spending roughly a month and a half, seven travel coordinates have been lit up.

During this period, his Spiritual Beasts’ training naturally didn’t cease, and all achieved considerable improvements.

Chen Meng’s Spiritual Beasts improved even more dramatically, with the Jade Scale Dragon advancing to Overlord, and all other Spiritual Beasts reaching Monarch Ninth Rank.

For the eighth stop, Chen Mo planned to head to Jizhou, to search for the millennium-old Da Yuan Country, fulfilling his promise to the Emperor of Dead Bones.

Jizhou is located at the southernmost part of the nine provinces, bordered by the Endless Sea to the east and Qing Province to the west, featuring "seven mountains and three waters" terrain.

With continuous mountain ranges which are connected by numerous big rivers.

After a day of rest, the two arrived at the "White Cloud Ferry" Secret Realm in Lingnan Province.

Within Dongxia, there are a total of three Secret Realms leading to the Jizhou of the Spirit Realm, and the "White Cloud Ferry" Secret Realm is the closest to the White Dragon Pond, with the best scenery along the way.

Upon entering the Secret Realm, Chen Mo heard the thunderous sound of water in his ears, akin to thunder.

Below him was a rapid, massive river spanning thousands of meters or even wider.

This river is named the Heavenly River, and ancient people couldn’t find its end, thinking it led straight to the heavens, thus its name.

The banks of the Heavenly River are towering mountains reaching the sky, and at the moment, they were halfway up a certain green mountain.

Peering downwards, they could see a ferry dock not far away, with about a dozen canopy boats and several turtle-like Spiritual Beasts moored.
