2847 Thunder Flame Suspension!
Even with experts like Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter presiding over the faith country, there were still numerous demon insects guarding it.
When they encountered these problems, having an ability like Thunder Roar to remind the members of every village helped maximize the safety of these villagers in dealing with emergencies and reduce Lin Yuan’s losses.
Lin Yuan’s goal in establishing the faith country was to collect faith.
Therefore, every lifeform in the villages that could provide faith power was an extremely precious treasure.
Just based on Thunder Light and Thunder Roar alone, the Thunder-Descending Shadow was indeed worth cultivating.
Its Gold ability, Thunder Appearance, allowed the Thunder-Descending Shadow to break through concealment.
When imbuing the target with the thunder energy, the thunder energy would burst into dazzling thunder light and directly mark the target’s location. Unless the target spent a lot of effort to eliminate this thunder energy, they would not be able to escape the detection of the thunder.
It did not take much energy for the Thunder-Descending Shadow to use Thunder Appearance. Without using other abilities, simply using Thunder Appearance could maintain the constant level of energy in its body.
Under such circumstances, the Thunder-Descending Shadow could serve as the supervisor in the village. If someone in the village did something bad that could jeopardize the safety of the others in the village, the Thunder-Descending Shadow could investigate first and then directly mark the lifeforms involved and have the demon insects handle the situation upon their arrival.
The Thunder-Descending Shadow’s Thunder Appearance could ensure the highest level of discipline in the village under flexible use. It would prevent the bullies hiding in the village from bullying the weak lifeforms in the village.
This could increase the happiness of the villagers and stabilize the output of faith power.
Previously, during the investigation of these villages, Lin Yuan had discovered many instances of bullying and had been pondering how to stop these situations. Now, Lin Yuan finally found a way to completely resolve it.
The Thunder-Descending Shadow’s Thunder Transformation not only confirmed for Lin Yuan that there were powerful thunder-type leopard-species lifeform’s corpse underground, but it also had a very strong effect.
If the Thunder-Descending Shadow were to be deployed into multiple villages, existing in its leopard form might not be suitable.
When the faith country was established, every village would have a temple. Statues of Sky City’s core members would be placed in the temple.
As the supervisor of the village, the best place for the Thunder-Descending Shadow to go was to stay in the temple to let the lifeforms in the village be aware of the authority of the temple.
Lin Yuan believed that the most suitable form for the Thunder-Descending Shadow should be the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil, which wore a priest’s robe and looked extremely holy but was a scheming devil in reality.
Later, Lin Yuan only needed to let the Thunder-Descending Shadow follow the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil for a while, absorbing its aura and transforming it into a simple Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil.
That way, all the Thunder-Descending Shadows in the temple could exist in a specific standard form.
Even if Lin Yuan wanted to integrate the villages, it would not affect the beliefs of these villages.
When the Thunder-Descending Shadow’s grade continued to increase, it would obtain a powerful offensive ability, and Thunder Marking would finally be useful by that time!
Not only did Lin Yuan have to nurture these Thunder-Descending Shadows in large quantities, but he also had to increase their strength.
Listen had just mentioned that it was abnormally easy for a Thunder-Descending Shadow to increase its grade.
One spirit qi crystal was enough to evolve the Thunder-Descending Shadow from Gold to Diamond grade. It had the ability to synthesize thunder energy by itself through pure spirit qi.
Lin Yuan only needed to spend a small amount of spirit qi crystals to enhance the Thunder-Descending Shadow’s strength to a very high level.
As a transmigrator, Lin Yuan had grown up listening to all kinds of myth stories.
Ever since Lin Yuan understood the significance of faith power in improving his strength, his actions were geared toward creating a Myth system. To put it bluntly, the core members of Sky City, including the white-clothed followers and even the reserve members of Sky City, were all members of this Myth system.
As the Sacrifice in charge of supervising and delivering divine punishment in the temple, the Thunder-Descending Shadow definitely had to be extremely powerful.
Green Vine observed the Thunder-Descending Shadow in leopard form and said seriously, “Yuan, when I entered the thunder zone just now, I realized that the power of thunder surging in the thunderclouds is nothing. The thunder energy is mainly seeping out of the ground. There must be treasures underground. Do you think we should dig out the treasure?!”
Lin Yuan knew what Green Vine was thinking. It probably wanted to use the vines to absorb the thunder-type treasure underground.
This leopard’s corpse that had thunder attributes was linked with the creation of the Thunder-Descending Shadow. Lin Yuan would definitely not use the leopard’s corpse as a consumable.
However, Lin Yuan found it difficult to excavate the corpse. He was afraid that digging the corpse out of the ground would deplete the thunder energy there, making it very likely that there would not be enough thunder energy to produce the Thunder-Descending Shadow for a long time.
Lin Yuan turned to ask, “Listen, did this thunder zone seriously affect the establishment of the trade chain?”
Listen nodded seriously. “Young Master, the mountain valley behind this thunder zone is connected to another territory of the King Blood Jackals. Their territory is in the shape of a narrow gourd, with a vast area behind the territory. Furthermore, it contains a lot of resources.
“It’s not practical to use avian-type feys for all trades in the future. If not for that, Endless Summer and Gu Lang would not have come to this thunder zone to investigate!”
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment before giving orders to Green Vine and the thousands of demon insects around him, “Go and carefully dig out the leopard’s corpse in the subterranean area. Remember, don’t let this corpse suffer any damage!
“Also, gather all the Thunder-Descending Shadows in this thunder zone and report to me after counting them. These Thunder-Descending Shadows are very useful to me. Even if these Thunder-Descending Shadows resist violently, don’t hurt them!”
Lin Yuan had never been a hesitant person. Building the trade chain in the territory was the most important thing now.
After moving the leopard’s corpse away, thunder energy would keep seeping out of it. Sooner or later, another thunder zone would be created.
It was really unreasonable to throw such an important resource there. Instead of having to arrange for numerous people to guard this place, it was better to move the leopard’s corpse onto Sky Sea’s back.
He would let Sky Sea’s flesh fuse with the leopard’s corpse and nourish it. Otherwise, the energy in the leopard’s corpse would be exhausted sooner or later.
Once the thunder zone was formed, there would be many thunderclouds in the sky. Gray’s cloud form could perfectly cover the thunderclouds, preventing them from exposing Sky Sea’s whereabouts.
Furthermore, this thunder zone was not small, and there were already many Thunder-Descending Shadows inside.
These Thunder-Descending Shadows should be enough for the faith country that was about to be built.
Lin Yuan had always been willing to invest resources in Green Vine, and Green Vine was very understanding.
Back in the main world, Lin Yuan had given his most precious resources to it.
Green Vine would properly supervise these demon insects to complete the mission that Lin Yuan had assigned.
Lin Yuan took out a few spirit qi crystals and began to nurture the Thunder-Descending Shadow in leopard form.
The Thunder-Descending Shadow had already begun to go berserk, and the energy in its body was surging violently.
If this situation continued, it wouldn’t take long for the Thunder-Descending Shadow to be left with only the elemental core.
Lin Yuan raised his hand and summoned Begin Lady, who had been staying in the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Faeries had an appeasing effect on all elemental lifeforms. The existence of a faerie represented the protection of nature.
Begin Lady enveloped the Thunder-Descending Shadow with her aura, and soon, it quieted down. It moved closer to the Begin Lady and greedily absorbed her aura.
Lin Yuan was well aware that once the Begin Lady left the Thunder-Descending Shadow, it would quickly return to its berserk state.
However, when he evolved the Thunder-Descending Shadow to Fantasy Breed, its intelligence would be completely awakened. Then, it would no longer be controlled by the elemental skills in its body!
Begin Lady was clearly very interested in the Thunder-
Descending Shadow. She examined it and said, “Lin Yuan, elemental-type lifeforms like the Thunder-Descending Shadow only need to absorb a large amount of energy from their birthplace to make it easy for them to comprehend a Willpower Rune and undergo a transformation.
“Celestial Sight and I aren’t lightning-type faeries, but we can still support these Thunder-Descending Shadows with our own auras.”
Lin Yuan was delighted. If that was the case, he might as well evolve all the Thunder-Descending Shadows to Diamond X/
Fantasy V.
When they reached this level, their intelligence would be no different from a seven or eight-year-old child.
Begin Lady and Celestial Sight could help these Thunder-
Descending Shadows comprehend Willpower Runes and help them transform Willpower Runes into Law Runes.
When the strength of the Thunder-Descending Shadow increased to Suzerain/Myth III, it could transform into a human form, making it more convenient for them to mimic the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil.
Lin Yuan came to the Thunder-Descending Shadow and crushed the spirit qi crystals in his hand. As expected, its strength increased rapidly, just as Listen had said.
After the Thunder-Descending Shadow’s evolution, it did not change at all, but the thunder energy inside was much more violent than before.
Lin Yuan used Morbius’ True Data to investigate the Diamond/
Legend Thunder-Descending Shadow.
[Fey Name]: Thunder-Descending Shadow (Leopard Form)
[Fey Species]: Elemental-species/elemental-genus
[Fey Grade]: Diamond (7/10)
[Fey Type]: Thunder
[Fey Quality]: Legend
Abilities:
[Thunder Light]: Activates the thunder energy in one’s body, transforming oneself into a glowing object that connects to the clouds in the sky and emits the same amount of light along with the clouds.
[Thunder Roar]: Rapidly rotates and rubs the thunder energy within oneself, producing a violent roar to stimulate the eardrums. In the presence of condensing clouds, the clouds will also emit a roar of an equivalent degree.
[Thunder Transformation]: Allows one’s body to absorb the aura of other lifeforms in the environment, enabling it to simulate the appearance of other lifeforms.
[Thunder Appearance]: Fills the surroundings with thunder energy. Wherever the thunder energy goes, it has a concealment effect. When the thunder energy touches the target, it can detect the target’s location before the thunder energy dissipates.
[Thunder Flame Suspension]: The suspended thunder ball pulls the target and attaches the target to the thunder ball. The thunder energy inside the thunder ball, friction at high speeds, activates the fire elements to burn the target attached to the thunder ball. After burning the target’s body to ashes, the spirit and soul will be imprisoned in the thunder ball.
[Annihilation Thundercloud]: Summons thunderclouds to cover an area. The thunder that descends from the thunderclouds will cause damage to lifeforms. Initially, it will paralyze the target, and attacking the paralyzed target will double the effectiveness of the attacks.
Exclusive Skill:
[Thunder Marking]: Creates a mark on the target using thunder energy. Afterward, one’s damage-type abilities will not affect the target with the mark.
When Lin Yuan finished using spirit qi crystals to nurture the Thunder-Descending Shadow, the first batch of Thunder-
Descending Shadows captured from the thunder zone had already been brought out by the demon insects.
Lin Yuan realized that most of these Thunder-Descending Shadows were Bronze grade. Only a few of them were at the Silver grade, and even fewer were at the Gold grade. However, their abilities were surprisingly identical.
Lin Yuan did not appear surprised because he had already received an explanation about this situation from Listen. Otherwise, Lin Yuan would not have considered nurturing the Thunder-Descending Shadows solely based on their abilities.
Lin Yuan chose a Thunder-Descending Shadow and used the spirit qi crystals to increase its strength. He realized that these Thunder-Descending Shadows even possessed the same Platinum and Diamond abilities!
Their Platinum ability, Thunder Flame Suspension, was not very offensive, and its usage was not simple or direct at all. It could be described as fanciful. However, this ability was very suitable for Lin Yuan’s intended role for Thunder-Descending Shadow.
As a Sacrifice guarding the temple, the Thunder-Descending Shadow needed some fancy and ritualistic methods. However, Thunder Flame Suspension was not only flashy and ritualistic but also spiritual and soulful. Furthermore, it even carried a strong sense of mystery!
Using Thunder Flame Suspension as a method to punish the depraved lifeforms in the village would definitely serve as an effective warning.
