The spirit and soul imprisoned in the ball of thunder, displayed on the altar in front of the temple, would not only protect the village but also serve as a warning to the villages.
While Lin Yuan was nurturing the Thunder-Descending Shadow, Green Vine dug out the corpse from below the thunder zone.
The corpse below the thunder zone was completely different from what Lin Yuan had imagined.
He had been picturing an enormous creature that was thousands of ters long. Yet, it turned out to be less than even a ter long. It was evident that this was a leopard cub.
Lin Yuan would never have expected this thunder zone to be created by the corpse of a leopard cub. He had been expecting to see a powerful thunder-type leopard-species lifeform who had died here so ti in the past few centuries.
This corpse was showing clear signs of beginning to skeletonize.
For an unknown reason, cracks had appeared on the bones, and the partially crystallized interior was revealed. This was what had created the thunder zone.
This leopard that lived many epochs ago definitely ca from a powerful species!
It would be easy for Lin Yuan to use the Abyss Red Lotus' ability to reproduce this lifeform.
The idea blood in his head.
[Lotus Creations]: Its bloodline will be injected into mature lotuses, and the lotus roots will activate bloodline energy based on the injected bloodline. The energy in the lotuses will be sacrificed to turn the activated bloodline and its genes into a replicated lifeform.
The significance of Lotus Creations was that it could produce reproductions of powerful species that had lived many epochs ago.
Lin Yuan intended to ask Spring, Sumr, Autumn, and Winter to take a look at this leopard and if they knew what it was.
Using True Data, Lin Yuan had already discovered that this corpse ca from a lifeform called the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard. However, he did not understand the situation in the Sky Beyond the Clouds and did not know what its significance was.
The Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's corpse could create the thunder zone and hatch the Thunder-Descending Shadows. All Lin Yuan needed to do was extract so of the marrow from within the crystal and would be able to use the Abyss Red Lotus's young lotuses to create the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard.
Green Vine led the demon insects back to Lin Yuan's side and told him seriously, "Yuan, there are 19,677 Thunder-Descending Shadows. None of them were hard or lost when they were captured, and I have brought all of them to you."
Lin Yuan nodded. He was satisfied with the number of Thunder-Descending Shadows in the thunder zone. 19,677 of them were sufficient to et his initial needs.
19,677 Thunder-Descending Shadows could control 19,677 villages in his faith country.
The large villages with a population of more than 10,000,000 would not be combined. However, the villages with populations in the millions would be combined. Every village in the faith country would have a population of more than 10,000,000.
He only needed spirit qi crystals to nurture the Thunder-Descending Shadows.
Lin Yuan gave nurous spirit qi crystals to Begin Lady and Celestial Sight so they could nurture and manage all of the Thunder-Descending Shadows.
Lin Yuan did not want to waste ti nurturing the Thunder-Descending Shadows. It would take at least a few months to nurture more than 19,000 of them.
Fan Lou had sent a ssage to Lin Yuan through the Thoughts Letter Paper, but Lin Yuan had not received it.
The Thoughts Letter Paper's efficacy in the Sky Beyond the Clouds had already been tried and tested.
However, the ssage had not been delivered because Wen Yu's Elental Paper's level was too low. If its grade could be evolved, the ssage would be transmitted successfully!
Communication and transmission were of the utmost importance to a faction.
However, once Wen Yu's power reached World Emperor/Divine Kingdom, it was no longer easy for Lin Yuan to increase her power quickly. After all, faith power needed to be accumulated slowly.
Nonetheless, this did not really affect Lin Yuan because Fan Lou could get in contact with him through the soul contact if he really had sothing he needed to report.
Once Lin Yuan moved nearer to the main area of the East Universe and was closer in distance to Fan Lou, they would be able to resu communication through the Thoughts Letter Paper.
It was likely that the Dark Pufferfish envoy had begun making their way to et with the Bloodians.
…
Lin Yuan brought the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's skeletonized bones to Sky Sea's back and called in Spring, Sumr, Autumn, and Winter so he could ask them the questions he had.
The four of them reacted as per Lin Yuan's expectations. They were aware of the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's existence and knew a lot about the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopards.
"Lord Saint, I can't believe the corpse of a lifeform as powerful as the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard was found in a place as barren as North of the Lonely River!
"As far as I know, by the ti we rose in power, the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopards had retreated after being embroiled in internal conflict. Their biggest challenge was reproduction and continuing their legacy.
"Once internal conflict erges, it becos even more difficult for a species to produce offspring. It's almost inevitable that they will start heading toward their doom. This Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard cub's bloodline is rather pure. But based on the degree of skeletonization of the corpse, it has been dead for at least seven or eight epochs!"
From the extre shock on Spring's face, it was clear that she was flabbergasted at the fact that Lin Yuan had stumbled on the corpse of a Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard. This corpse of an ancient lifeform was an extrely precious treasure.
Spring was aware of the Abyss Red Lotus's abilities. It could enable the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard to reappear in this world.
The Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard could create unimaginable value for Lin Yuan!
Lin Yuan had a certain level of understanding of the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopards now.
But his biggest concern was whether he would be able to create the thunder zone and Thunder-Descending Shadows by extracting marrow from the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's corpse.
If he could not be certain that he would be able to create the Thunder-Descending Shadows, Lin Yuan would prefer to use the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard to create the thunder zone. Once the number of Thunder-Descending Shadows t his needs, he would then extract marrow from the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard to enable it to reappear in this world!
Lin Yuan asked the question that he most wanted an answer to. Spring, Sumr, Autumn, and Winter were the only ones who could answer this sort of question.
Spring began explaining to Lin Yuan seriously, "Young Master, this Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard might just be a cub, but it still possesses an enormous amount of thunder energy. If you want to create a thunder zone, you can break and expose its crystallized bones! Since the bones have been crystallized, they will be able to regain energy once they are nourished by spirit qi. Young Master, you can extract the energy at that point!"
Lin Yuan relaxed when he heard this.
If he could replenish the energy in the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's crystallized bones by using spirit qi crystals, he could let go of all restraints and utilize the bones as he pleased!
He could even take out a portion of the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's bones and give them to Green Vine to absorb. This would enable Green Vine to increase its power.
When necessary, Green Vine could even use its exclusive skill to summon the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard.
"Spring, why don't you help crush the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's bones? Then, extract so of the crystallized bones."
Upon receiving Lin Yuan's instructions, Spring imdiately sprang to work and shattered the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's bones.
When a large portion of the crystallized bones were exposed, they began to shine with a brilliant bluish-purple light.
Spring extracted the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's spine and told Lin Yuan seriously, "Young Master, if you are going to re-awaken the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard, my suggestion is that you use the marrow from the spine as it has the highest concentration of energy and will allow you to re-awaken the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard in the shortest span of ti.
"Alternatively, you can use your Body of All Spirits to absorb the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's bloodline. Its bloodline is highly worth nurturing!"
When Lin Yuan found out that using the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's crystallized bones would not prevent him from using it to create the thunder zone, a similar idea had ford in his head.
Sumr brought the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard's corpse to the location on Sky Sea's back that Lin Yuan had specified.
Sky Sea's flesh swallowed the Raging Thunder Heavenly Leopard as though it was mud. This simultaneously nourished the corpse while releasing the energy within it.
At this rate, the thunder zone would be produced in less than two weeks.
…
Lin Yuan had initially intended to take Spring and Sumr with him when he left the King Blood Jackals' territory and headed to the East Universe's central area. But an unexpected occurrence forced him to halt his plans.
This unexpected occurrence was that the Suzerain X/Myth III rciful Star Peony was finally showing signs of a breakthrough after more than a month of absorbing energy from the stars. Not only was its grade about to evolve but its bloodline was also poised to transform.
It went without saying that Lin Yuan would step in to help the rciful Star Peony and prevent it from being tripped up at any point of the evolution process.
With a raise of his hand, Lin Yuan summoned the rciful Star Peony.
The rciful Star Peony shone with a faint silver glow.
Now that it was about to evolve, the rciful Star Peony chose not to undergo the process in its human form. Rather, it would undergo the transformation in its original form.
The rciful Star Peony had already reminded Lin Yuan that it needed to be supplied with pure spirit qi.
Lin Yuan stood off to the side and instructed Source Sand to crush the spirit qi crystals and replenish spirit qi for the rciful Star Peony. He also placed his hand on the rciful Star Peony's leaf and injected a large amount of spirit qi into its body.
At this mont, the Sky Beyond the Clouds was filled with stars and an air of lonely vastness.
Lin Yuan raised his head to look at the sky. He could clearly sense that the energy from the celestial bodies in the sky was much stronger than what he experienced in the main world.
The rciful Star Peony flexed its petals and made contact with the constellations. The energy from the constellations sunk into the rciful Star Peony.
In less than two hours, Lin Yuan noticed that the rciful Star Peony's petals had grown at least three tis larger.
The singular flower lit up with mottled starlight, and it looked as though maps of stars had been drawn on the petals.
The rciful Star Peony's aura had changed completely.
Spring quickly and deftly fought off the World Cleansing, and the Creation World Ley Line landed on the rciful Star Peony.
Lin Yuan knew that the rciful Star Peony had transford into a Suzerain/Creation fey!
Since the rciful Star Peony had only just evolved, it needed so ti before it could transition from Suzerain X to Sovereign.
Lin Yuan used True Data to check on the rciful Star Peony.
