"Sure. Co back whenever you want, but make sure to take the main road back ho. Don't co through the forests."
Kosa warned her and headed back, dragging his tired body ho. He had only managed to harvest ores about a quarter of a sac.
And since Charlotte was a slave, she obediently helped him carry the sac back to the house.
She wanted to stay back with Tang Yue and see what she was doing, but unfortunately, her disguise didn't allow her to do.
So the elf begrudgingly left, watching a certain kid stick out his tongue at her.
Tang Yue didn't have the ti for the inexplicable enmity and weird shenanigans between these two idiots and summoned the system interface as soon as Kosa and Charlotte left the mines.
Since the kid was still sitting near her, she closed her eyes so that she could more conveniently talk to her master.
"Master, I am going to cultivate both fire elental core and earth elental core at the sa ti." Tang Yue mumbled resolutely.
[Dumb little snake, I already warned you. You shouldn't do that.]
"It's fine if my cultivation is not perfect. I think it is worth it to give it my all and learn the blacksmithing craft."
[Well, if it is just these two elental cores, you should still be okay for now.]
[Your soul strength is high enough to support two elental essences at the sa ti.]
[But don't increase more than this. Then your cultivation will most definitely reach a bottleneck and you will not be able to progress further.]
Tang Yue nodded.
She, of course, wanted to help this old man out, but it was equally important to maintain her disguise.
She wouldn't be able to learn to smith or even mine properly without cultivating earth elental essence.
Without being able to use and manipulate earth elental essence, her disguise as well would sooner or later be exposed.
And also Tang Yue had a vague feeling that her soul weapon required her to have smithing knowledge to completely master it.
So considering everything, she decided to risk things and start cultivating earth elental essence as well.
For others, affinity to an elental was a gift that they were born with. A blessing from the heavens.
But for Tang Yue
"He He Let's start the feast."
She grinned and retrieved a roasted at skewer from her spatial ring, tucked deep underneath her robe.
Xander couldn't help but curiously look at her. What is she doing? Didn't she just eat?
Sensing the little kid's eyes on her, Tang Yue handed him a skewer. "Here take so at."
The little kid tilted his head and accepted the skewer with a cute and confused expression.
Devil boar's at? Xander was genuinely confused.
It was just a piece of low-grade beast at and the taste as well was not that top-notch.
Why was she eating it? That too sitting alone in a big old mine in the night? He was curious.
Everything she did had a reason behind it so he couldn't help but wonder what it was this ti
What else could she possibly be hiding from him? The elf ended up deciding to spy on his mysterious snake.
Xander ate a bit and yawned a couple of tis. "Big sis, I am sleepy. I will sleep on little blue a bit."
He acted as if he was drowsy and used the wolf like a pillow and closed his eyes.
Tang Yue chuckled and patted the boy.
She continued munching on the at and soon quickly finished an entire boar's at in the next hour.
The notification that she was expecting promptly chid in as well.
Ding. 50% Devil Boar bloodline absorbed
Ding. 10% Devil Pig bloodline absorbed
Tang Yue's black dwarven eyes visibly widened as she saw the notifications.
Previously, consuming a single low-grade beast only gave her 10% of the bloodline.
But now, thanks to her new skills, she was able to absorb bloodline much more efficiently.
[Lesser Evolution] - Passive skill, Able to constantly improve and upgrade the body by absorbing bloodlines; Only 50% bloodline is required for triggering evolution.
[Bloodline Gorger] - Passive skill, Able to absorb bloodlines from at very efficiently.
Tang Yue had expected a small jump in her capabilities but not sothing so drastic. So she was utterly taken aback.
Luckily she was in an isolated atmosphere in a deserted mine with only a small kid nearby.
Because just with this 50% bloodline, due to her upgraded evolution ability, the next notification should be popping out any ti now.
And just as she expected
Ding. 50% Devil Boar bloodline absorbed
Ding. Bloodline Evolution has been initiated
Before Tang Yue could do anything, a familiar sensation assaulted her and her body started to twist and turn.
Her disguise had already disappeared and her serpentine body was engulfed in a warm nourishing glow.
Tang Yue twitched in pain, as she went through the entire process.
Waves after waves of mana crashed into her and after a few seconds, the pain and the giddiness finally ceased.
Ding. Bloodline Evolution has been completed
Ding. 500 Experience points have been rewarded.
Ding. Congratulations. New Skill obtained.
[Lesser Earth affinity] - Passive skill; Able to manipulate mana into low-grade earth.
Tang Yue didn't even dare to wait around to read the notifications and quickly slithered to a dark corner of the mine.
From there, she looked at the kid and confird that he was still sleeping first.
Only then, she sighed in relief. She thought she had been careful enough, but still, sohow this ended up happening.
Tang Yue might reveal a lot of things to Charlotte and others, but this was one thing that she could never reveal to anyone else.
No one can ever know about her evolution ability!
Just for doubting that she acquired the labyrinth inheritance, the elves had already cornered her this much.
She didn't even want to imagine what they would possibly do if they find out about this small little secret of hers?
That man even he might join the other elves and openly hunt her down to the ends of the heaven
