Having gained Lu Ran’s approval, Jialan breathed a sigh of relief. The big shots of domestic superhuman organizations had wanted to get in touch with Lu Ran for a long time, but they had never had the chance.
Lu Ran was so formidable that even the big shots of India’s superpower organization suspected that his abilities were related to theirs. If they could invite Lu Ran to visit India for a discussion, it would naturally be for the best.
Jialan seemed to want to say something else, but the next moment, someone else arrived.
Seeing this, Lu Ran showed a helpless expression and tapped on the Sudden Death King, saying, “I’m dead tired. Call me when the evolution energy bursts again; I’m going to take a nap.”
Saying that, the Sudden Death King cooperatively closed its wings, enveloping Lu Ran, General Ha, and the Dark Crow, making them invisible to the outside world except for a rock-like shield of wings.
“This person, so annoying,” murmured Monasa, whose hair resembled a snake, his gaze flowing.
“Strong individuals always have their quirks, and indeed, being harassed can be annoying,” Superhuman Jiana remarked as she looked at the people continuing to arrive.
“Indeed,” Jialan said. “In that case, let’s evolve here too, and after Lu Ran finishes his evolution, we can chat with him.”
The three of them stepped aside.
The newcomers, seeing Lu Ran enveloped by the shield and sealing himself off from outsiders, also fell silent.Realizing they couldn’t reach Lu Ran, they didn’t bother to call him forcefully. Instead, they settled nearby, planning to evolve in the vicinity.
The place Lu Ran had chosen was initially quiet, but it wasn’t long before it was crowded, even the sky filled with media reporters riding on flying pet beasts, observing from above.
“Hehe,” especially the White Mouse Reporter who had last published first-hand news about Lu Ran, appeared again in the Evolution Secret Realm.
The strong individuals from various countries who came to watch the spectacle greeted the White Mouse, “White Mouse, who are you planning to focus on this time?”
“Lu Ran, of course.”
“It might be hard to replicate the miracle, but he’s still the most talked about.”
“I’m also curious to see what species his Sword Dog will evolve into.”
The White Mouse Reporter felt that Lu Ran’s visit this time was likely to evolve his initial pet beast.
As for the Crow, she didn’t know much about it and refrained from speculating.
“Of course, besides Lu Ran, the Ice King also deserves attention! It is said that he has arrived too,” the White Mouse spoke up.
The King of Ice, King of Snow, King of Cold, and King of Winter, known collectively as the four kings, were the first team to pass through the Legendary Secret Realm. All four of them are Level 3 beastmasters and belong to the Third Generation of the strongest echelon.
It can be said that most of the intelligence about the Legendary Secret Realm obtained by various countries came from them.
Without their intelligence, Lu Ran might still be unaware that the rating of the Legendary Secret Realm is related to the number of people who complete it.
Legend has it that these four powerhouses regretted their decision afterward, realizing too late that the rating was tied to the number of participants; they would have opted for a dual completion.
No one doubted their strength, for, as the first global team to pass through the Legendary Secret Realm, their capabilities were certainly up to par.
The Ice King, captain of the ice and snow winter team and the only one among the four to have nurtured a new pet, is a beastmaster to watch.
If he has come to the Evolution Secret Realm for a second time, it would indeed be noteworthy; such a powerhouse is unlikely to have a weak new pet.
“Oh, and there’s more…” the White Mouse maximized her professional ethos, engaging in conversation with these big shots.
Some time later.
Finally.
The Prompt Tone sounded.
[Evolution energy surge countdown: 60 seconds.]
[Alert 1: …]
Similar to the previous Evolution Secret Realm, the announcement rang in everyone’s ears, prompting the beastmasters to halt their casual conversations and wait with bated breath.
At this moment, the wings of the Sudden Death King slowly unfolded, drawing considerable attention.
To everyone’s surprise, there was Lu Ran, the Dark Crow, and that dog, all snuggled up against the giant dragon, resting their eyes.
“Huh.”
As the countdown began, Lu Ran slowly opened his eyes and said, “It’s starting now.”
“Dark Crow!”
“I’m here!!!” the Dark Crow shot into the sky.
“That one?”
The observers watching Lu Ran looked toward the soaring Dark Crow and the indifferent Erha, slightly taken aback.
It seemed that Lu Ran intended to evolve the Crow, a Level 30, Dark, Mental, Upper Commander Species.
From the perspective of attributes and species, this Crow reaching the level of an Upper Commander at level 30 is quite impressive.
However, it’s still hard to imagine how this Crow could possibly surpass the Dragon King below it.
Lu Ran is a Dragon Chef, not a Chef Crow after all.
Seizing the moment Lu Ran appeared, and before the evolution energy erupted, the white mouse reporter boldly approached him from the air, saying, “Mr. Lu Ran, may I ask about…”
“Shut up! At such a level, you dare to disrupt my evolution!” Before Lu Ran could speak, the Dark Crow General angrily glared at the white mouse reporter from the sky.
At this moment, Lu Ran’s soul enhancement was already bestowed upon it, and in its view, any interference with Lu Ran was an attempt to cause its evolution to fail!
[A talking Crow…]
The Dark Crow’s distinct personality was indeed memorable. The white mouse reporter gasped, not expecting such a character from a Crow.
Yet what she didn’t expect even more was that this unique Crow seemed to know exactly what she wanted.
“Just want to know what level I can evolve to, right?”
“Wait and see for yourself, don’t ask!”
The Dark Crow’s intense desire to express itself left Lu Ran helpless, but fortunately, the white mouse reporter was wise enough to leave immediately.
“Damn Crow…” the white mouse reporter muttered as she left, utterly frustrated and on the verge of tears, not expecting to be snubbed by a Crow even before Lu Ran could speak.
During the conversation.
The uneven ground began to crack.
Light burst forth from within.
“It’s coming!!”
“It’s about to erupt!!”
“It’s starting!”
“Evolve, my pet beast!”
Voices of excited beastmasters echoed everywhere.
Beneath the wave of voices,
Countless beams of light surged forth, and at that moment, numerous beastmasters simultaneously threw their trait crystals toward their pet beasts!
Lu Ran was no exception.
He threw a necromancy clone trait crystal.
Besides this, the Dark Crow had already absorbed all other resources in advance. Now, this crystal was the absolute turning point for the Dark Crow’s future!
Although it doesn’t enjoy the same soul cuisine treatment as General Ha and the Sudden Death King, the exquisite soul bone has significantly enhanced the soul power of the Dark Crow, perfectly matching its Necromancy clone without any issues.
Moreover, what really decides the evolutionary potential of the Dark Crow is not just this Necromancy clone trait-it’s merely the final key to unlock evolution.
What truly determines its potential is the entire foundation accumulated within levels 1 to 30.
Whichever power system dominates will dictate the species it evolves closer to after evolution. For example, although the Sudden Death King has absorbed a variety of traits, its cultivation is predominantly Loong-type, with Thunder-type being secondary.
Now, the Dark Crow is clearly dominated by curse power, so after evolution, it should primarily be of the Curse type. This aligns perfectly with Lu Ran’s cultivation direction, where Necromancy merely supports the curse power, rather than making the Dark Crow specialize in Necromancy.
If one were to specialize in Necromancy, the pursuit wouldn’t be a Necromancy clone but rather the soul as the true essence!
“Here it comes!” The Dark Crow grabbed the trait crystal with its beak, its method of fusion vastly different from others-perhaps a side effect of the pig transformation curse, it’s nearly turned into a pig itself, trying to solve everything by eating.
“Gah.” The Dark Crow swallowed the trait crystal in one gulp.
In the next instant.
The surge of evolution energy completely enveloped the flying Dark Crow!
In the entire Evolution Secret Realm, time seemed to stand still, and numerous beastmasters held their breath.
…
At this moment, the beastmasters evolving their pet beasts couldn’t be bothered with others, fully invested in their own pet beasts.
Including the three from India’s Golden Generation near Lu Ran.
Only a group of wealthy beastmasters who also loved spectating were acting as an audience, observing everything from the air.
A careful observation would reveal that those who were present during the first opening of the Evolution Secret Realm were here again, and the audience was noticeably larger.
Boom!
It didn’t take long.
A wave of sovereign intimidation spread, and several pet beasts, wrapped in evolution energy, completed their first evolution.
For those who evolved early, the experts in the sky had already drawn conclusions: these pet beasts couldn’t be strong.
Without even triggering the star blessing of the cosmos, how could they be powerful?
However, evolution occurred very swiftly. In no time at all, the sky lit up with one beam of light after another, marking the start of the most thrilling moment.
“The star blessing is about to descend!”
“Quick, look at which 10 pet beasts it is!”
Stars shining in the sky excited many.
Soon, starlight poured down, illuminating different areas.
Terrifying sovereign waves erupted with this starlight, booming loudly!
In the west, a giant crocodile roared continuously.
In the south, a majestic lion devoured the starlight.
At this moment, those who evolved under the starlight were undoubtedly upper sovereigns with potential rivaling overlords.
However, in an instant, these powerful presences were all suppressed by a resounding roar that pierced the sky.
“Moo-“
In a region mixed with ice and snow, a creature covered in fine blue fur, with huge tusks, was howling at the sky.
Its enormous body suggested it was a mammoth.
Beside the mammoth, a muscular young man suddenly burst into loud, excited laughter.
[Name]: Permafrost Elephant Lord
[Attribute]: Ice, Earth
[Species Level]: Lower Overlord
[Growth Level]: Level 31
[Introduction]: A unique species, an ancient overlord.
“Hahaha…” As the man laughed, many shocked gazes turned towards him.
“It’s the King of Ice.”
“He’s actually an overlord…”
“This pet beast, I have intelligence on it. The Ice and Snow Winter Team, in the Legendary Secret Realm, the best reward is a lower sovereign species ancient permafrost elephant cub.”
“It seems that this cub was ultimately contracted by the King of Ice.”
“Sss… It’s reached the overlord species.”
People were incredibly surprised. This mammoth’s species, likely originating from the Star-Moon Continent and not Blue Star, displayed an unbelievable advantage as an innate sovereign. Under the careful cultivation of the King of Ice and the Snowfield Federation, it achieved the formidable status of a lower overlord.
“From today on, defeating the Second Generation and First Generation will no longer be a challenge,” declared the King of Ice with a bold proclamation.
He felt that, barring any surprises, today he would undoubtedly be the main character in this Evolution Secret Realm, having invested his entire fortune in this colossal elephant, even owing countless favors in the process.
The second supreme overlord of Blue Star!
The King of Ice’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
“Who else!!!” At this moment, he could hardly contain his emotions.
However, the next moment.
History often has a surprising resemblance.
When people were shocked by the evolutionary results of the Ice King from the Snowfield, they completely missed that only nine beams of evolutionary light were still descending in succession.
There was also a chatterbox, still enveloped in the evolutionary light, until all the pet beasts had finished evolving.
Boom!!!
A starry sky thundered, and countless people looked up in confusion, only to see, at this very moment, that the entire sky had lit up once again.
People wore baffled expressions.
Confusion reigned in their hearts.
Even the Ice King was momentarily stunned.
The dazzling starlight outlined a constellation, one shaped like an eye.
Then, the stars gazed downward.
Buzz!
A vast cascade of starlight fell.
“No way?!” At this moment, someone seemed to have noticed something, speaking in disbelief.
“Ah?” The White Mouse Reporter was also startled, quickly looking in Lu Ran’s direction.
And sure enough…
Lu Ran’s pet beast still hadn’t finished evolving.
“What’s going on!” The Ice King also took flight, looking towards the distance.
“Lu Ran?”
He spoke, puzzled.
“Is it like this again, could it be a middle overlord?!!”
Some veteran spectators speculated.
But after speculating, they found it too far-fetched to believe.
Not just them, even those aware of the dark crow’s evolutionary resource allocation like Gu Qingyi and others were taken aback.
Those resources, combined with Lu Ran’s own nurturing, made it not impossible for the dark crow to reach the status of a lower overlord, but why such an anomaly again??
Besides those resources, what else had Lu Ran been feeding this dark crow??
“I’m telling you, it’s definitely the illegitimate child of Infinite City,” Cat commented.
After the myriad streaks of starlight descended, everyone held their breath once again to look.
Amid the slowly dispersing brilliance, a massive black crow appeared. Due to its evolution, the power within it was uncontrollably unleashed, revealing a dense array of Evil God’s Eyes. The sight of these eerie eyes sent a chill down the spines of many powerful onlookers, startling them.
“What the hell is that monster?”
“What on earth has Lu Ran bred?”
Despite its bizarre appearance, many were puzzled as to why this crow could invoke such a dazzling blessing just moments earlier.
“Another lower overlord!!!” someone exclaimed. Yet, even as a fellow lower overlord, why was this crow’s evolutionary display so much more formidable than that of the permafrost elephant lord?
Even the King of Ice felt a pang of rivalry, but in the next moment, everyone’s expression changed simultaneously.
“No, something’s not right.”
For in the next instant, a second figure slowly emerged behind the terrifying crow filled with eyes.
It was a specter enshrouded in grey-black mist, composed entirely of spirit, with blood-red eyes-a necromantic crow!
Apart from lacking eyes all over its body and having an ethereal form, its appearance was identical to the other. During its evolution, Lu Ran’s pet beast had astonishingly split into two separate bodies!
And both bodies belonged to the overlord species!
This was the greatest change following the crow’s evolution!
A deathly echo resonated throughout the secret realm.
[Name]: Twin Crow (Crow of Curses Form)
[Attribute]: Dark, Mental
[Species Level]: Lower Overlord
[Growth Level]: Level 30
…
[Name]: Twin Crow (Crow of Death Form)
[Attribute]: Necromancy, Dark
[Species Level]: Lower Overlord
[Growth Level]: Level 30
…
[Introduction]: A unique species, twin souls in one body, the master of strangeness!!
People were now certain that Lu Ran’s pet beast had indeed split during its evolutionary process.
“How is this possible!!!” Upon seeing this, countless people were shocked beyond belief, unable to comprehend, and their faces showed their astonishment.
In an instant, two overlords had been bred?
The King of Ice himself was left dumbfounded. How could this be possible???
