Monster Pet Evolution

“Thunder Net Storm.” Da Zi displayed the power of the thunder wholeheartedly. Horrible thunder reverberated, and the deafening sounds kept on echoing in the void.

Rumble.

At this point in time, when the Desolate Frost Lion had nothing left to do, it trained Da Zi to control its power.

It was the most basic to simply release the power of various elements. The more advanced level was to arrange the elements according to certain proportions and then release them.

The same elements in different orders could exert ten times more power. The simplest example was the ability of carbon atoms to form diamonds and charcoal with different structural arrangements. The hardness of the two was vastly different.

The experience of the Desolate Frost Lion in this respect was, naturally, not comparable to that of Da Zi. Even when it came to thunder, the depth of research in this aspect for Da Zi was far less than it had been for the Desolate Frost Lion.

Lightning as thick as the mouth of a bowl was like a giant ax smashing at the void, piercing from top to bottom aggressively.

“Roar!” Immune to pain, the White Birch Tree Demons rushed toward Gao Peng. In the process of rushing, they were shredded to pieces by the lightning, their arms broken and chests pierced, and they stopped their heavy steps to fall to the ground with a thud.

In a flash, four white birch tree demons fell, and the remaining 16 that had suffered injuries were also hurt.

The White Steel Bladed Beast that had been trying to take the Stone Statue of the Convicted for a long time, yet hadn’t succeeded, was rather anxious. I still haven’t taken this guy down after so long. Will Gao Peng think that I’m useless?

With great anxiety, the White Steel Bladed Beast was infested by a force of darkness, and a black spot the size of a large soybean appeared on the surface of its steel helmet. The black spot flashed with a demonic black brightness. It needed to consume the wind element in its body to prevent the dark spots from spreading.

The White Steel Bladed Beast was angry, as angry as the day a monster had wanted to take away the fruit that could make it grow bigger.

“Three Thousand Slashes of the Endless Hurricane!” The White Steel Bladed Beast completely disappeared from its place, and only the sound of the wind being cut through could prove its existence.

Bang, bang, bang!! The ultra-high-speed collision sound echoed in the air, lasting for a full minute before stopping.

Stiffly, the Stone Statue of the Convicted stayed put, motionless. It was smashed to pieces only when White Birch Tree Demon knocked against it accidentally. The broken pieces were neat and uniform. They were all rectangles the size of one’s thumb.

A slashed black core crystal stood out in the pile of debris. It sparkled with a demonic black light.

The White Steel Bladed Beast was like a proud, victorious general. It stood tall and pushed its chest out, both of its bladed arms covered with slashes that were about the width of green beans.

“Idiot, you smashed the Core Crystal.” Gao Peng knocked it on the head. The White Steel Bladed Beast covered its head and turned away angrily.

“Go and pick up the core crystal.”

The White Steel Bladed Beast went to pick up the core crystal. To it, this dark core crystal wasn’t attractive at all.

However, Xiao Cao, who was on top of Dumby’s head, was so excited that it couldn’t control itself. It yelled, “Iya, Iya,” as two small leaves swayed like it was having convulsive seizures.

After eating this Lord-tier monster core crystal, the Yin Yang Calendula fell into a deep slumber. It curled up on top of Dumby’s head with its crown glowing a faint white.

On the other end, after Da Zi’s thunder purgatory, these White Birch Tree Demons withered completely. Having already been affected by the igniting darkness, they were already black, and after being purged by the thunder, they were even darker. Certain areas hit by the thunder even showed traces of white and green.

After digging the core crystals out of the twenty White Birch Tree Demons, Gao Peng let Dumby knock on the door. Surprisingly, the main door opened with a slight push.

In a trance, Gao Peng saw the white holy light flying from the temple to shine on the earth, like white spring snow falling on blossoming flowers.

He blinked his eyes and looked at the opened gate. It was an ordinary gate.

After the gate was opened, there were three steps of vertical stone ladders. Two white flower pots were placed on the left and right sides of the gate. The flower pots were large, and an agave tree was planted in each pot.

Gao Peng glanced twice at the agave, which was just an ordinary plant, not a mutant monster in disguise.

Walking into the yard, there was a large white sculpture in the center. The sculpture, which was 16 feet tall, had a pool in front of it. The pool was sparkling gently, and light reflected on the water was gentle and smooth.

Behind this sculpture was a long and straight corridor that led to the back.

Gao Peng realized that the floor under his feet wasn’t flat. Instead, it was slightly inclined. Although the angle wasn’t steep, Gao Peng could still clearly feel the slight inclination of the ground.

[Monster name]: Penalty Sculpture

[Monster Level]: Level 43

[Monster Grade]: Normal

[Monster Attributes]: Dark

…

“The disguise is really good.” Gao Peng assessed the sculpture. “Goldie, go and chop it up.” It was also time to give Goldie a few layers of passive skills.

Goldie took its double axes and walked over aggressively. The motionless pure white sculpture suddenly trembled. The white paint on its surface suddenly melted, like melting white wax to reveal a dark body.

Three minutes later, the floor was littered with disintegrated slags.

Goldie picked up the dark monster core crystal and handed it over to Gao Peng. Gao Peng took this dark Lord-tier core crystal and put it in front of Xiao Cao, who was in a deep slumber. Xiao Cao’s body moved towards Gao Peng instinctively, and when he lifted the core crystal higher, the curled-up Xiao Cao stretched its body.

Finally, Gao Peng put the core crystal on its leaves. The leaves curled up, then it hugged itself into a ball.

Xiao Cao’s level was still slightly lower, but it would be able to play more roles after it was promoted to the Lord tier.

The way to promote a monster’s level quickly was to absorb a monster core crystal of the same attribute. In theory, as long as there were enough Lord-tier monster core crystals, it was possible to promote familiars that fulfilled the grade requirements to the Lord-tier in the shortest amount of time.

Xiao Cao was now Level 36. If the two core crystals were absorbed, it would be able to break through to the Lord tier. Gao Peng instructed Dumby to take good care of Xiao Cao, who was sitting on top of its head, and continued walking deeper into the temple.

For the rest of the journey, they didn’t come across any other monsters. The atmosphere just became more and more uncomfortable. Unknowingly, the surrounding walls had turned black. The black walls on the inside were full of omens.

From outside, the temple didn’t seem very big, but when one walked inside, one could feel its spaciousness. The dark walls and rooftop had no light at all, so they now depended on Flamy for light.

Logically, one should have walked out of the temple, but they were still walking onward. It could have been that they had already gone underground.

“Stop.” Gao Peng stopped his footsteps, and looking around, he realized that in front of them was a spacious open area with half-translucent white crystals floating in the air.

[Item name]: Crystal of the Undying Heart

[Item Description]: A crystal that naturally condensed around the Essence of the Undying Heart. It is formed by the various types of incomplete Soul Power absorbed from the air through the Essence of the Undying Heart.

“Flamy, increase the light.”

Flamy nodded, increased the flame in size by three times, and immediately, the flame lit up the entire hall. Everything was clearly exposed in their field of vision.
