In the pitch-black depths of the sea,

A water cube-shaped relic secret realm welcomed its first ray of light after a long period of silence.

Inside, a world resembling that of water, a youth dressed in a panda costume appeared out of thin air.

"Yún'ǎn seems very afraid of Martial Emperor."

"It scared the child silly." "Alas, look how scared the child is." Shi Yu shook his head, a smile on his face. Exciting.

Divine Iron in hand, time to take off. Now to arrange for Chi Tong's evolution... No... I must first report to Chairman Lin.

Shi Yu paused, looking upwards.

Immediately, his figure appeared from the deep seabed to the shimmering surface of the sea. Because of its proximity to Dong Huang, communication tools immediately had a signal.

Currently, Shi Yu's communication tool was facing Chairman Lin's incessant frantic calls.

Because, at the moment of teleporting away, Shi Yu also transmitted the edited encounter back to Dong Huang via the Intelligence Bureau's encyclopedia.

In that situation, even if Yún'ǎn noticed, it would be useless. Chairman Lin is so anxious now, probably to ask about my condition.

After all, which person could endure the stimulation of their own genius encountering an ancient totem king on a trip?

After the World Competition, Shi Yu's name must have already reached the ears of the Yún race. He is certainly a target for assassination.

Shi Yu could imagine Yún'ǎn's shock upon hearing his name.

"Chairman Lin." Shi Yu called back, and immediately, Chairman Lin's emotionally unstable voice came from the other end: "Shi Yu, where are you now? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I just used an ancient sea relic in the South Sea as a springboard to escape."

"It's good that you're okay. It's outrageous that Yún'ǎn actually appeared in Tian Jian Country. I really don't know whether to say you're unlucky or unlucky... That Yún'ǎn... is it really that strong?" Chairman Lin said.

In Shi Yu's message, he informed Dong Huang about Yún'ǎn's whereabouts and its killing of the Tian Jian demigod. At the same time, he reminded Dong Huang not to act rashly, and to focus on tracking down and locking onto Yún'ǎn's clues, rather than directly going to war.

"Yes, it has recovered and possesses demigod-level combat power."

"And the feeling it gives me is very special... A combination of a cosmic race and a mythological race, giving it strength far beyond that of an ordinary demigod," Shi Yu said.

Some biological races, even if they have not mastered the power of rules, does not mean they are weak.

For example, Shi Yu's Qinglong Chong Chong. Because it is a cosmic belief god, in the eyes of those gods, although it has not yet mastered the power of rules, it is not necessarily worse than a race that has mastered quasi-divine skills.

This Yún'ǎn is similar.

Even without considering the power of rules it has mastered, it itself has powerful cosmic methods similar to Qinglong, vaguely giving Shi Yu a huge sense of threat.

Moreover, the divine skill of rules it has mastered should not be weak either.

It is an advanced rule prototype, mainly based on the power of darkness. Shi Yu later learned that the power of rules is divided into ordinary, advanced, and top-tier.

Like the single rule of wind or the rule of ice, these are ordinary rules.

Lin's blessing wind of luck, which is a mixed rule, is an advanced rule.

As for the mixed rule divine skill composed of mutually opposed attributes such as the Yin-Yang Millstone, it is obviously a top-tier rule. Of course, neither Eleven, nor Lin, nor Yún'ǎn has reached the point of mastering true rules. Their quasi-divine skills are still rule prototypes. If they want to transform into true divine skills of rules, they still have a long way to go. Moreover, the higher the level and quality of the rule prototype, the more difficult it is to transform into a true divine skill and improve proficiency.

The difficulty of improving the Yin-Yang Millstone is several times that of the Wind's Blessing. This is also reflected in the risk warning for stat points.

When these quasi-divine skills are upgraded to perfect proficiency, they can be promoted to true divine skills.

And the reason why advanced and top-tier rules are so difficult to improve is because there is a reward.

When they transform into true divine skills of rules, the racial attributes of extraordinary life will also be stronger. For example, Lin's racial level will not be at the bottom of mythological races, but will be a high-level mythological race, and will complete a new life evolution because of the transformation of the divine skill.

As for Eleven, it is a top-tier mythological race.

With one divine skill, it can be worth several ordinary divine skills possessed by other gods.

This is also why the Taurus Ancient God and the others were so surprised to see Eleven master the top-tier rules. A low-level god-level race possessing an ordinary rule divine skill!

A mid-level god-level race possessing two ordinary rule divine skills!

A high-level god-level race possessing three ordinary rule divine skills, or one advanced rule divine skill!

A top-tier god-level race possessing four ordinary rule divine skills, or two advanced divine skills, or possessing one top-tier rule divine skill! However, when the divine skill has not yet formed and is still in the quasi-divine skill stage, no matter what the quality of the power of rules contained in the divine skill is, it cannot be regarded as a complete rule, and can only be at the bottom of the mythological races.

After all, no matter how high the quality and potential of a quasi-divine skill is, it is not as good as the weakest divine skill. Only when it truly becomes a divine skill can it be considered mastering a rule and being god-level.

Of course, after reaching god-level, if you want to improve your combat strength, you mainly look at the proficiency of divine skills, not the quality level of the divine skills.

In the Mythical Era, there were also those one-track-minded guys who practiced an ordinary rule divine skill alone, and their combat power grew to its peak, relying on the degree of development to crush top-tier rules.

Moreover, there are also some top-tier rules that are not suitable for combat, such as time-space travel. But it cannot be denied that at this stage, the quality of quasi-divine skills largely determines the combat power of demigods. Yún'ǎn, wielding an advanced quasi-divine skill, plus being a cosmic life.

It can be said that its life level is roughly equivalent to Chong Chong evolving again, very strong, a combination of cosmic life and a god-level race.

Dong Huang's initial idea was to take advantage of Yún'ǎn's newly resurrected and weak state, to take its "life" while it was weak.

But who knew that Yún'ǎn was not as weak as imagined, but very strong. Even if they went to war with divine forbidden weapons now, they would kill a thousand enemies but lose hundreds of their own troops.

Even if they could win after paying a huge price, Yún'ǎn would have been blown to pieces.

If it were in the previous era background, doing so would not be considered a loss, after all, the Demon God Iron-Eating Beast was very strong. However, with the myth about to be revived, the Demon God Iron-Eating Beast is not so strategically significant to the Mythical Era, unless more new evolutionary routes are researched on this basis. The power of Yún'ǎn can create the Poison Dragon Totem and the Yún race, so it may not only be pandas that can use it. This is obviously of greater value. At the same time, more information about the abyss forces can be learned through it. Therefore, Shi Yu's idea is to first keep an eye on and lock onto Yún'ǎn, and wait for a more secure and easier combat method, such as when the World Tree wakes up or Su Su breaks through, before going to the final battle.

"No wonder it could kill the Tian Jian demigod..." Hearing Shi Yu say this, Chairman Lin fell silent. "Don't worry, Senior Shen Yuan has already sent its mechanical pet over. Shi Yu, you should come back first." Chairman Lin was tired and no longer dared to let Shi Yu go out.

"Okay, I'll go back to Dong Huang later. I got the god-level meteorite iron from Tian Jian Country, I'll evolve a pet first, and then I'll go back."

"Evolving in the country would cause too much commotion."

Chairman Lin: ? "Use it as an evolution resource? Evolve again?" Chairman Lin was stunned, feeling extremely outrageous. From the perspective of racial level, none of Shi Yu's pets seemed like they could improve their racial level again! …After ending the call with Chairman Lin, Shi Yu excitedly returned to the Legendary Relic Space, feeling that this was a Feng Shui treasure land for evolution. There were no human islands nearby. Even if the evolutionary fluctuations leaked from the Legendary Relic, they would only affect some small fish and shrimp. Shi Yu didn't care so much.

At this time, the pets were whispering everywhere in the relic space. Little Ji and Little Duck looked at each other from afar, cursing Yún'ǎn. That hateful Yún'ǎn. It ruined the sword-testing conference.

They had prepared for so long, who knew how hard they had worked.

The inflated Little Ji and Duck even wanted to fuse with the Earth God Dragon Fossil and the Abyss Seed, and then take over the great mission of killing Yún'ǎn.

…Eleven and the others were also full of regret.

Why didn't this Yún'ǎn come out half a year later? If it had come out half a year later, they might have had the ability to fight Yún'ǎn head-on.

Currently, within Shi Yu's team, Eleven, Chong Chong, Baby Ginseng, Chi Tong, Su Su, and Lin all have ways to fight weaker top-tier totems. Even, under certain specific circumstances, individual pets have the opportunity to defeat top-tier totems alone.

For example, Baby Ginseng eating the time fruit blessed by quasi-divine skills and self-destructing after igniting the flames of life. If the opponent is not a space-type expert at escaping like the Gem Cat, but directly takes the hit head-on, it will basically die. Even a demigod would be injured if they took it head-on.

If Shi Yu's Mind Domain, Lin's combined mech, and Baby Ginseng's time fruit assistance are included, it may not be impossible for them to deal with a demigod-level creature for a period of time.

However, unfortunately, this kind of burst is not long-lasting, and can only last for a few rounds. Even if it can cause some damage to the demigod, it is insignificant. As long as they can't kill in one hit, Shi Yu and the others will definitely lose. After all, in a true demigod-level state, they can use quasi-divine skills ten times, while on Shi Yu's side, quasi-divine skills and various burst methods can only be used as one-time bursts because their base levels are too weak, only overlord-level. After one round of bursts, they become weak and exhausted.

It is still too difficult to fight a constant state with bursts.

But even so, Shi Yu can currently be said to be a top-tier legendary titled master.

Ordinary legendary titled masters can only fight ordinary totems.

More powerful legendary titled masters, such as Overlord Sea Legend, can defeat ordinary totems and fight top-tier totems. Top-tier legendary titled masters, such as Chairman Lin, are said to have a record of defeating top-tier totems with contracted pets. For Shi Yu, defeating top-tier totems is obviously not difficult.

If Yún'ǎn hadn't come at the time and only the Black Meteorite Divine Ape had arrived, Shi Yu and the others would have killed this monkey no matter what… It's just that I don't know how much combat power Chi Tong's evolution this time can add to them on this basis.

"Chi Tong, come on, prepare to evolve."

Shi Yu called out to Chi Tong, who was in sword maiden form, lying on a chair, eating ice cream and listening to Eleven and the others' discussion. This guy... just finished fighting and is eating ice cream, aren't you afraid of getting a stomachache? "Hmm." When Chi Tong saw Shi Yu return, he finished the ice cream in two or three bites and quickly got up. Eleven and the others' gazes also focused on him.

"Awoo. (It's finally starting.)" Eleven rubbed his face. For this month, Shi Yu had been preparing for Chi Tong's evolution, and the whole team had been helping Chi Tong cultivate and train clones. It could be said that he was being treated like a beloved daughter.

"Tweet! (The last evolution will not be weak. This is not a gamble, but an analysis.)" Chong Chong analyzed. Lin was the first to complete his evolution and become a mythological race, Su Su was the second and became the Ocean Belief God, Eleven was the third to evolve and became a mythological race, it was the fourth and became a Cosmic Belief God, Baby Ginseng was the fifth and also became a mythological race, and finally it was Chi Tong's turn. Could it be weak? Chong Chong calculated according to its own logic, and it couldn't possibly be weak! And maybe because of the version dividends, it would be ridiculously strong... "Yee!! (Let's go!!) Baby Ginseng shed tears. For Chi Tong, not only were all of Shi Yu's life fruits used up, but it also provided a lot of nutritional products. A basket of World Tree fruits was made. The energy of the entire legendary relic was almost drained by Baby Ginseng. Shi Yu was already planning when to eliminate this legendary relic and fully develop the Beast Taming Space and Little Zi's inner world.

"Nee~~ (Chi Tong~~)" Su Su looked at Chi Tong eagerly, "If you become stronger, don't forget about me." To be honest, the Ocean Sprite race didn't give it much sense of security… "Multiple legendary resources, dozens of full-level swordsmanship skills as a foundation, two mythological resources, and god-level evolutionary skills. There's no problem with the strength." Lin said with certainty. Even a demigod wouldn't be able to gather so many resources to optimize a race without hundreds or thousands of years of accumulation.

"Now, the biggest problem is whether it can successfully survive the evolution stage." "Hmm!!" Chi Tong clenched its pink fist, flames burning in its eyes. Evolution! It, who had never evolved once in the team, could finally evolve.

Shi Yu smiled slightly, "Take your time." "After you finish evolving, we'll hold the next team tournament."

Chi Tong was shocked, feeling that Shi Yu had blessed it.

But it wasn't a big problem. "Let's begin."

As Shi Yu spoke, Chi Tong directly summoned four sword clones in sword maiden form.

The first one had a silver-white sword body with purple light, refracting the mysteries of space. Shi Yu not only used two space-type legendary resources for this sword clone, but also fused space sword intent through several space-type skills in Tian Jian Country, and taught it a bunch of sword formation skills.

The second one had a curved red sword body with red light surrounding the entire sword body. This sword clone grew up in the Divine Fire of Life, a god-level resource, and was tempered by Chi Tong's Phoenix Sword Intent. On this sword, Chi Tong's Rebirth Flame was dramatically enhanced, even stronger than the original.

The third one had a sword body intertwined with darkness and blue-green death energy, containing the wave of annihilation and death. This sword clone perfectly fused the strongest Death Annihilation Sword Intent of the Demon Sect through a large number of perfect-level World Tree fruits, extremely close to the rules of death. At the same time, because Chi Tong was a death spirit itself, it, as the Sword of Death, also had the highest base value. The massive amount of death energy accumulated by the enemies Chi Tong had killed was used as nourishment for its growth. The last one had only fused and comprehended the Sharp Metal Sword Intent through many metal-type sword skills, and was ordinary. But after the trials of the Tian Jian Relic, it was also extremely sharp. It could be said that each of these sword clones could crush top-tier overlords if taken out individually. And now, Shi Yu wanted them all to merge into Chi Tong's body to complete the return-to-origin evolution! Huu!!!!

Four swords appeared around Chi Tong, and after that, the Divine Iron Meteorite was taken out by Shi Yu and floated in the air. Chi Tong controlled the Flame of Life and wrapped and melted the metal, trying to fuse it with the fourth Sharp Metal Sword. Under the transformation of the Flame of Life, the form of the Divine Iron Meteorite slowly changed, blooming with an astonishingly sharp light, extremely repulsively fusing into the Sharp Metal Sword. Qiang!!! Each fusion caused the Sharp Metal Sword to bloom and chime with an ear-piercing sword cry, causing the entire legendary relic space to tremble!

Ci la!!! Dazzling sword light burst out, and even the void was occasionally cut with a wound by the light. "Even a clone is so powerful." Shi Yu was immediately forced back by the sharp light activated by the Divine Iron Meteorite.

He was even more looking forward to Chi Tong's potential after evolving through so many luxurious evolution resources! The process of finally tempering the sword clone was indeed long.

But Shi Yu and the others had plenty of patience to wait.

After an unknown amount of time, with a "buzz", the legendary relic space was pierced with cracks by the large and small Sharp Metal Sword Lights, and the Flame of Rebirth also re-integrated into the Sword of Life. The four sword clones with strong fluctuations rotated around Chi Tong, and with just a thought from Chi Tong, these sword clones could merge into its body!!!

"Now is the time." Shi Yu gave an order and maintained a telepathic connection with Chi Tong, hoping to be able to know the changes in its body at the first moment. Buzz! The next moment, the Sharp Metal Sword fused with the Divine Metal Meteorite first emitted a strong golden light. The power of the sharp light seemed to be able to easily cut the divine body in half. Its sword body turned upside down, and the tip of the sword directly pierced into Chi Tong's body from its chest.
