Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 2860  Desire Moon-Eyed Beast!

A few factions that had been passed down over several epochs, as well as ancient species, indeed had the tradition of training their young direct descendants. They would send them out to set up their own establishments as a way of building and developing their own factions.

The young members of these ancient factions and species were all the cream of the crop.

This not only trained the young direct descendants but also expanded the ancient species and factions.

Zhan Lu felt that there was a high chance that Lin Yuan was one of these young direct descendants who came from an ancient faction.

While these young direct descendants went out to train and test themselves, they were given numerous resources.

Lin Yuan could only act this liberally if he had the support of an ancient faction.

Previously, Zhan Lu was only trying to build a relationship with Lin Yuan. But now, he felt that he needed to curry favor with him.

If he became acquainted with a young lifeform like Lin Yuan, who not only possessed impressive martial force but also an abundance of resources, he might be able to obtain opportunities or assistance from Lin Yuan in the future.

Fortune Treasure Palace accumulated resources for trading.

Moreover, the resources that Lin Yuan exchanged for the trade were all more valuable than the items he traded for.

None of the rare and precious resources in the Sky Beyond the Clouds that could be found in the wild were more valuable than Creator resources.

"Young Master Lin, I understand your meaning. Aside from the items on display, Fortune Treasure Palace still has many resources in storage. I will take all of them out so you can have a look through them.

"Normally, the rules dictate that these resources are only allowed to be used to replenish the resources on display. But I am willing to give you this chance. I hope that you won't let others find out about this! Otherwise, I won't be able to answer to the other special honor guests."

Lin Yuan did not reciprocate Zhan Lu's feelings, but he could tell that Zhan Lu was trying to curry favor with him.

He did not believe what Zhan Lu said about the rules.

Rules were set by people. Even if Fortune Treasure Palace truly had such rules, Zhan Lu was only trying to help smoothen the process of the trade and was not harming Fortune Treasure Palace's profits.

Zhan Lu would probably say the same thing to the other special honor guests who traded such enormous volumes of resources!

"That goes without saying. We might be Fortune Treasure Palace's special honor guests, but you're the one who has been helping us the entire time. Our friendship with you is much deeper.

"Even if we don't trade with Fortune Treasure Palace in the future, we will continue doing business with you! I hope you'll be willing to continue working with us! It's fine if you can't find the resources I need. But if you can find them, please don't hold back!"

Lin Yuan's words sounded friendly, but his tone was sharp. He was trying to make his reasons for becoming acquainted with Zhan Lu clear.

Lin Yuan also clearly expressed that he wanted Zhan Lu to do his best to help him search for resources. If Zhan Lu slacked off or was unwilling to put in the effort, Lin Yuan would stop associating with Zhan Lu.

Lin Yuan's words caused a bright smile to appear on Zhan Lu's face.

After hearing what Lin Yuan said, Zhan Lu relaxed. Since he would be able to obtain benefits by helping Lin Yuan search for resources, it went without saying that Zhan Lu would put his best foot forward.

"Young Master Lin, you can just send instructions to your subordinates, and I'll make the arrangements. Then, we can continue picking resources from the higher levels!

"I will tell them to place all the resources from storage on the 15th floor. When we get to the 15th floor, I will filter through the resources. The amount of resources in storage is five times that of what is currently on display.

"If you want to continue trading after looking through the resources in storage, I will have to submit a request to headquarters to ask if the branches from the other islands will be able to bring their resources over for you!"

Lin Yuan shook his head. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ɴovel(ꜰ)ɪre.nᴇt

"The current store of resources is sufficient for this trade. I don't have an infinite supply of resources. If not for the conflict within my species, I wouldn't be this anxious to trade my Creator resources for other resources."

In truth, Lin Yuan was trying to probe Zhan Lu's thoughts and slowly curate an impression of himself in Zhan Lu's mind.

Lin Yuan had prepared this speech in advance. He needed a reasonable explanation when he was out doing business. His speech would frame himself as a direct descendant of an ancient species in Zhan Lu's mind.

After receiving Zhan Lu's report, Fortune Treasure Palace would verify his background.

Slowly, news of his background would spread, and many other factions would want to link up with him.

Even the cruel and radical factions would be interested in the faction that was supporting him and think twice about whether they could afford to provoke him.

Although the hidden ancient factions and species were willing to let their young members go out to train, they were still very protective of them and would not stand by and watch as they were bullied.

Just as Zhan Lu was about to leave to make the arrangements, Lin Yuan said in a low voice, "I've only just begun my training and don't know much about anything. I heard that the various chambers of commerce are releasing books, and I have sent someone to collect the books from over 40,000 chambers of commerce in Treasure City.

"I'm sure there are many books in Fortune Treasure Palace as well. Once we're done trading resources, I hope that you will lend me these books so I can read them. I'm sure you won't reject such a small request of mine, right?"

Zhan Lu already had the intention of establishing a good relationship with Lin Yuan. He would never turn down such a request from Lin Yuan.

It was true that Fortune Treasure Palace had numerous books. Some of them were published by Fortune Treasure Palace, but the majority had been collected from outside sources. These books were highly valuable, but allowing Lin Yuan to look through them would not harm Fortune Treasure Palace's profits.

It just so happened that Zhan Lu had the authority to do so.

Rather than using his resources to curry favor with Lin Yuan, Zhan Lu preferred to use Fortune Treasure Palace's resources.

"Young Master Lin, this is no problem at all! The chambers of commerce's books can't compare with Fortune Treasure Palace's collection in both quantity and quality. However, the Fortune Treasure Palace's collection of books is all connected, and there are millions of them. It will be difficult for you to finish reading all of them quickly. Do you intend on staying in Fortune Treasure Palace?"

Zhan Lu and Lin Yuan were only recently acquainted, and he hoped that Lin Yuan would be able to stay in Fortune Treasure Palace longer so he could use the opportunity to become even closer to him.

Alas, Lin Yuan's response was not what Zhan Lu had been hoping for.

"Mr. Zhan, all you need to do is help me bring all those books over. I will return them to you before the Treasure Convention begins. The books won't be damaged in any way. If they do become damaged, I will pay 30,000 chips for every damaged book. I'm sure that Fortune Treasure Palace's headquarters has copies of all these books."

Zhan Lu was rather disappointed.

It was true that Fortune Treasure Palace had backups of every book, and in the event that any of them were damaged, he just needed to notify the headquarters.

Many special honor guests had borrowed the books in the past.

No one would be able to resist an offered compensation of 30,000 chips per book.

But Zhan Lu knew that if he agreed to Lin Yuan's request, he would lose almost all hope of deepening his friendship with Lin Yuan.

Although the two of them were linked now by their shared benefits, they could form a friendship over time by maintaining a positive relationship.

Zhan Lu had become friends with many special honor guests through this method. Occasionally, they would gather together. Zhan Lu wanted to pull Lin Yuan into this circle.

It would benefit someone like Lin Yuan, who was a young disciple of a hidden ancient faction, to join this circle.

The members of this circle that were guarded by him always made sure to provide benefits to each other.

However, Zhan Lu could not extend an invitation to Lin Yuan now. He could only invite Lin Yuan after the two of them got on better terms, and he found the right opportunity to do so.

Lin Yuan's unrestrained sweeping of Fortune Treasure Palace's resources as well as the orders he gave to Zhan Lu had caused all of the attendants to become curious. Just who was this special honor guest, and how did he come to possess such wealth?

In the past, there were people who had gotten drunk in Fortune Treasure Palace and made declarations about emptying out Fortune Treasure Palace. However, everyone knew that the words of such drunkards were not to be believed.

But now, someone was actually doing that!

When Lin Yuan arrived at the 17th floor, he noticed that there were indeed more feys. However, they were still a far cry from reaching the standard of being spirit-locked by Morbius.

Nonetheless, Lin Yuan still traded for all these excellent feys.

Sky City had many members aside from main ones like Wen Yu, Liu Jie, Su Yiren, Luo Lan, and the rest. They needed feys as well.

The white-clothed followers and Sky City's reserve members also needed to contract feys.

If he stocked up on more outstanding feys, it would only benefit Lin Yuan and Sky City.

The biggest issue with these feys was that they were not easy to look after.

But once Lin Yuan placed the feys in the Spirit Lock spatial zone, the Hundred Questions Beasts would start to look after them. Lin Yuan did not have to worry about them at all.

At first, Zhan Lu had been frightened when he saw Lin Yuan gobbling up all the resources. With each casual point, he spent hundreds of thousands of chips.

This cavalier attitude toward chips was evidence of true might and power.

But after some time, Zhan Lu became composed despite the resources becoming increasingly expensive on the higher floors.

When Lin Yuan asked him for Fortune Treasure Palace's books, he said that he did not know much because he had only just left his faction.

However, Zhan Lu felt that Lin Yuan had a good grasp of the quality of the resources! He was able to pick the most useful resources on every floor.

Not even Zhan Lu had as good of an eye after years of interacting with treasures and working as a manager of Fortune Treasure Palace's branches.

When they arrived at the 13th floor, Lin Yuan was instantly drawn by a small beast.

It resembled a fox but also differed considerably from one.

This beast was currently weakly cowering in a cage made of white starstone.

Through True Data, Lin Yuan learned that this beast was called the Desire Moon-Eyed Beast.

Lin Yuan could sense that the Desire Moon-Eyed Beast's bloodline level was very high, but it had yet to grow the large third eye on the back of its head, which was characteristic of eyed-beasts.

The Desire Moon-Eyed Beast turned to look at Lin Yuan, and he saw that the back of its head was covered in white fur.

Lin Yuan was not interested in it because of its bloodline but because of its abilities and exclusive skill.

[Fey Name]: Desire Moon-Eyed Beast

[Fey Species]: Long-haired species/Eyed-beast species

[Fey Grade]: Silver (10/10)

[Fey Type]: Light

[Fey Quality]: Legend

Abilities:

[Moon Condensed Dew]: The moonlight in its body will be condensed into moon dew. The moon dew can boost entities that use moonlight as a main source of energy. These entities will be able to absorb energy even quicker, and their bodies will be cleansed.

[Moonlight Protection]: Its eyes will cleanse moonlight, and the moonlight will protect selected targets. The strength of the protection will be linked to the strength of its own bloodline as well as the strength of the moonlight in its environment.

[Gazing Moon]: Its eyes will fixate on the moon, and it will be able to comprehend everything it requires to evolve. The speed at which it absorbs moonlight energy will also increase.

Exclusive Skill:

[Dark Side of the Moon]: When it uses moonlight in its attacks, the moonlight will be boosted. A portion of the light-elemental energy will be transformed into dark-elemental energy. The two kinds of moonlight energy will attack the target.

The Desire Moon-Eyed Beast was basically made for the Moon Empress.

Almost all of the Moon Empress' feys were related to the moon and needed to absorb moonlight energy.

The Sky Beyond the Clouds also had a moon. It was much stronger than the main world's moon, and its moonlight energy was also more potent.

Hence, the feys from the Sky Beyond the Clouds that needed to absorb moonlight energy to increase their power could do so much more quickly than those from the main world.

When the Desire Moon-Eyed Beast used Moon Condensed Dew to boost the Moon Empress' feys, the feys' absorption of moonlight energy would not only be quickened, but their bodies would also be cleansed.

This cleansing of their bodies was different from when impurities were removed from their bodies.

The removal of impurities would purify the body, while the cleansing of the body would aid in its growth and enable the lifeform to develop in the right direction.

Many feys had abilities and exclusive skills that did not complement each other, diminishing their combat power.

The Sacred Cry Moon Beast was facing this exact issue, and this was a problem that plagued the Moon Empress.
