Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 293: Chapter 291: Opening the Treasure Chest

Vampire Ancestor.

That is something that only exists in Western mythology.

Lin You didn’t expect to encounter it in such a place, and it was formed from the blood sacrifice of a girl less than ten years old.

In a mere moment of confrontation, he lost no fewer than thirty species.

Including two species bodies!

“Die!”

There was no time for Lin You to react.

The girl soaring high into the sky raised her hand again, and within the Secret Realm Space, a vast sanguinary aura emerged, overwhelming the sky, sweeping towards him along with the Plant Legion.

In the blink of an eye, a large area of plants was swept into the air, shattered by the impact of the blood aura.

Only the Royal Species and a few species with higher attributes struggled to hold on, unable to free their hands to attack the opponent.

“Damn those fools for getting me killed!”

Lin You cursed under his breath, desperately recalling the remaining plants to his territory to minimize the losses.

But then.

A dazzling, radiant light sphere suddenly appeared, floating slowly towards the sky, and blooming with dazzling sunlight all around.

“Ah—”

The girl let out a shrill scream.

The body surrounded by the blood aura started emitting a large amount of white smoke, gradually disintegrating.

Even the sanguinary aura surging through the Secret Realm Space was blocked by the sunlight. It couldn’t get close to them at all.

“What is going on!?!”

Lin You was incredibly surprised, abruptly looking towards his team.

He happened to see the only Fierce Sunflower, along with its three split proliferations, all shining brightly.

And the light sphere in the sky was precisely the skill cast by one of the Fierce Sunflowers!

[Scorching Sun: Condense Solar Power to create a Little Sun in the sky, lasting for 14 seconds. During the period when the Little Sun persists, the surrounding environment is regarded as sunny, speeding up the recovery speed of allied Power of Nature.]

Exactly! It’s this skill!

Creating a sun in the sky.

And isn’t the vampire’s weakness precisely its fear of sunlight?

Lin You was overjoyed.

He never thought that this seemingly inconspicuous auxiliary skill would play such a crucial role at this moment.

It’s likely that the Fierce Sunflower initially just wanted to cast the sun to recover the Power of Nature for other plants.

Yet it ended up with unexpected effects.

“Well done! Attack with full force!”

Seeing the regenerative ability of the Lord Demon being restrained by the Fierce Sunflower, Lin You immediately shouted loudly, commanding the plants to launch a full-scale counterattack.

At the same time, he stimulated the Power of Rule, launching Barbaric Roar.

In an instant.

The momentum of the Plant Legion surged, frenziedly attacking the Vampire Ancestor in the air, with violent explosions echoing in the ears.

Especially the Cyan Rattan.

Stimulated by the blood, its whole body twisted violently, eagerly absorbing the surrounding sanguinary aura while attacking frantically.

And its Basic Attributes were constantly rising.

Alongside the Fierce Sunflower, a double-pronged approach.

In no time, it broke through the Tier Eight shackles, reaching Tier Nine, and it was still rapidly increasing, restraining the Vampire Ancestor tightly.

The Vampire Ancestor shrieked with despair, unable to unleash its full power under the suppression of both, directly driven back underground by the plants’ relentless attacks.

“Quick, stop her! Don’t let her escape underground!”

Facing such a formidable Lord Demon, Lin You dared not allow it to escape, lest some unexpected trouble arises.

Upon receiving his order, Lingxi and the Cyan Rattan in the team acted, using plants and vines to construct a large net at the underground entrance, blocking the Vampire Ancestor’s steps.

Mushroom Demon King in the sky was also throwing down heaps of mushrooms.

“Boom!!”

A mushroom cloud exploded in the air, shaking the entire Secret Realm Space violently.

With the double explosive power enhancement, it directly blew the Vampire Ancestor’s body to shreds.

As she tried to use the Power of Blood to recover, two more suns rose in the sky.

One left, one right, crazily burning her body, causing her to scream incessantly, and the momentum on her body weakened more and more.

Finally.

The attributes of the Cyan Rattan reached the peak of Tier Nine, and countless vines suddenly shot out.

“Pah!”

The sound of flesh being penetrated echoed.

The Vampire Ancestor roared unwillingly, and her body exploded, blasted into a cloud of blood mist, spilling around.

[Congratulations, you successfully killed the Tier Eight Lord Demon, earning 100,000 Magic Energy.]

[The Secret Realm is losing support and will collapse in thirty minutes. Please leave as soon as possible.]

“Phew—”

“It’s finally done…”

Listening to the prompt ringing in his mind, Lin You let out a sigh of relief.

Looking around the Secret Realm Space, it was already in ruins, no longer resembling the chapel it was when he first arrived.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, his gaze was attracted to something glowing at the center of the explosion.

It seemed to be a cross-shaped object.

Apart from it, no other treasures appeared.

Could it be the key to that Treasure Chest?

Lin You was invigorated and quickly ran towards the entrance of the passage, grabbing the cross in his hand.

“Boom!”

At this moment, the entire Secret Realm Space began to collapse, shaking violently.

Without hesitation, Lin You jumped into the passage holding the cross, and carefully placed it into the groove of the previously found Treasure Chest.

“Click.”

A crisp sound, the cross perfectly matched the groove, and the sanguinary aura around the Treasure Chest dissipated.

Success!

Lin You was extremely excited, and quickly stretched out his hands to slowly open the Treasure Chest.

This time, there was no longer an indication that it could not be opened.

After a dazzling golden light, several items immediately came into view.

Just like the other SSS-level Lord Demon.

Three treasures, one Tier Eight Territory Essence, ten Tier Seven Territory Essences.

However, what Lin You didn’t expect was.

As the Treasure Chest opened, a burst of white light suddenly lit up on its inner wall.

A wisp of ghostly light, like smoke, quickly gathered above his head, gradually forming the appearance of an elder wearing a cardinal’s red robe.

The elder first looked around blankly, then sighed softly.

“The plan… has it really failed…”

Then his gaze fell on Lin You.

“Thank you, young man, for giving us all relief.”

As his words fell, his body began to gradually dissipate, turning into a wisp of cyan smoke floating into the air.

“Wait! Tell me what exactly is happening in this world!”

Lin You hurriedly shouted, trying to hold the other back.

Unfortunately, the only response he received was a light remark.

“The world is dead, take care…”

The world is dead?

What does that mean?

Lin You stared blankly at the direction where the elder disappeared, feeling both surprised and uncertain.

But soon, he was awakened by the sound of the Secret Realm collapsing.

“Forget it, let’s not worry about this now.”

There were only twenty minutes left until the Secret Realm completely collapsed; he didn’t have the time to waste like this.

Quickly squatting down, he stored away the Territory Essences, then checked the three treasures.

Among them, was a very familiar Chaos Bead, which Lin You picked up first.

[Faith Treasure Pearl (High-level): After use, one can directly obtain 1000 points of Power of Faith, requires Territory Core.]

Faith Treasure Pearl!

Lin You’s eyes lit up in an instant, not expecting to obtain such a thing here.

And it’s not a low-level pearl that increases faith by 100 or 500, but one just like the one he snatched on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms, giving a full 1000 points!

Lin You knew very well what this meant.

As long as he uses this pearl, his Power of Faith could reach 3500 points, just 1500 short of advancing to Tier Eight.

If it were in the past, he might worry that advancing too early to Tier Eight would put him at a disadvantage on the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms.

But it’s different now.

He has the Symbiotic Moss mutated from the Deceit Willow.

As long as he can reach Tier Eight and replicate the attributes of a Tier Eight Species, his Species’ primary attributes could directly double, reaching the level of Tier Nine!

Although the quantity is still insufficient to truly compare with Tier Nine, it’s more than enough to establish a foothold among Tier Eight Lords.

Moreover, once reaching Tier Eight, his Reproduction Species can directly reproduce Tier Eight individuals, with the battle group size not at all losing to those Rush Lords.

Though the only concern is that advancing to Tier Eight means Species research will take time, making it difficult to recruit Tier Eight Species before the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms.

“Still, it’s better than nothing.”

Even if the 1000 faith can’t help him upgrade immediately, it can still enhance his strength, which is quite good.

After storing the pearl, Lin You continued to look at the next item.

A golden Species Token carved with a cross group.

Indeed.

Golden!

Lin You knew very well what this meant.

Because he had seen such tokens several times before, his hands couldn’t help but tremble, and his breath quickened.

Slowly picking it up, an interface popped up along with it.

[Species Token: Vampire Ancestor (Demon Type)]

[Species Grade: Rare]

[Species Level: Tier Seven]

[Introduction: After use, unlock the Demon Type Rare Species “Vampire Ancestor.”]

[Usage Requirements: Tier Seven Territory, 50000 Magic Energy]

Indeed, just as he thought.

It’s a Rare Species Token.

Moreover, it’s the same Species as the Lord Demon just defeated.

Though he knew this Species’ skills couldn’t have the terrifying power of a Lord Demon, he couldn’t help but feel his heart tremble.

If this Rare Species Token were put out, it would definitely make those Demon Type Lords fight desperately for it.

By then, he could take advantage to make a huge profit, or exchange it for precious resources he can use, both being a surefire win.

After carefully examining the token, he put it into his personal space with satisfaction, and then turned to look at the last item.

It was a… Cross Sleeve Sword surrounded by a bloody aura.

About the size of a palm.

But Lin You felt a strong bloody aura from it, suffocating.

This is also why he looked at this item last.

Holding his breath, he picked up the Sleeve Sword to check the information.
