After saying that, Endless Summer summoned its sacred source lifeform, the Barren River Orchid Bud, in front of Lin Yuan.
[Sacred Source Name]: Barren River Orchid Bud
[Sacred Source Species]: Source genus/Sacred Source species
[Sacred Source Star Grade]: 12 Stars
[Sacred Source Type]: Wood/Life
Abilities:
[Adjacent Flowers on an Orchid Branch]: When the Barren River Orchid Bud is grown in fertilized earth, its roots will spread far and wide to absorb all the nutrients from the earth. The nutrients will be turned into vitality that is stored in the Barren River Orchid Bud’s body. Eventually, orchid flowers will sprout, followed by fruits. After the Barren River Orchid Bud produces fruits, it will activate its roots to grow a new body. The Barren River Orchid Bud will trap the energy in the soil in its roots and multiply it. The Barren River Orchid Bud can use the vitality stored in its body to replenish the energy of its contractor.
1. Orchid Leaf State: The vitality in the orchid leaves is very tough. When the vitality is injected into its contractor, the contractor’s defense will be raised.
1. Orchid Flower State: The petals of the orchid petal will be able to extract vitality from the soil that can be injected into the bodies of others to heal their injuries.
3. Orchid Fruit State: Every fruit produced will have the contractor’s soul aura embedded in it. When the contractor’s soul is injured, the orchid fruit can use the soul aura embedded to heal the contractor.
[Barren River Heal]: Absorbs all the energy in the environment, causing the environment to enter a desert state. The energy in the environment can be enhanced by the orchid leaf state, orchid flower state, and orchid fruit state.
[Blessing of the Orchid Soul]: Sacrifice a portion of its body during its growth process, turning its body into an orchid soul in the area. The orchid soul can protect the lifeforms in the area and replace the lifeforms in the area to withstand the baptism of bad luck and the negative changes in its body.
[Barren River Guide]: By channeling one’s own energy into the environment, one can anchor three types of energy in advance. When changing the environment, these three types of energy will become the final energy that forms the environment.
When Endless Summer summoned the Barren River Orchid Bud, Lin Yuan investigated it.
The Barren River Orchid Bud’s first ability was the most complex among all the sacred source lifeforms Lin Yuan had seen. However, whether in its orchid leaf state, orchid flower state, or orchid fruit state, all of its abilities were extremely clear.
The orchid leaf state increased defense, the orchid flower state healed any lifeform’s physical injuries, and the orchid fruit state healed soul-level damage. Sacred source lifeforms with healing abilities were extremely rare in any environment.
Lin Yuan had not explored the Barren River Orchid Bud for long before upgrading it to the ability of the Sacred Source 12 Stars. Barren River Heal maximized the activation of the Barren River Orchid Bud’s three states.
To use the Barren River Heal ability, the surrounding environment had to be sacrificed. The more energy contained in the surrounding environment, the stronger the Barren River Heal ability.
In Lin Yuan’s opinion, the Barren River Orchid Bud would rarely have a chance to use this ability, especially in North of the Lonely River. If they encountered danger, even if Lin Yuan was not there, Spring and Summer could still resolve all the problems. There was no need for Endless Summer to use Barren River Heal.
Moreover, the price of using this ability was too high. Lin Yuan could not allow the environment to change drastically, as he had spent a lot of effort creating the environment of North of the Lonely River.
If Endless Summer used the Barren River Orchid Bud’s second ability, Barren River Heal, it would turn North of the Lonely River into a desert. However, under certain circumstances, if Endless Summer left North of the Lonely River, the Barren River Orchid Bud could still protect an area by using Barren River Heal.
The Barren River Orchid Bud’s third function, Blessing of the Orchid Soul, was a protective ability. When the Barren River Orchid Bud sacrificed its body to form an orchid soul, the orchid soul would become the guardian of the lifeforms in the area, preventing them from mutating during the process of increasing their strength and bloodline evolution. It could also help these lifeforms avoid the invasion of bad luck and curses, making it a rather effective protective ability.
The area the Barren River Orchid Bud could cover was extremely vast, with its roots extending nearly 2,000,000 square meters. Hence, all lifeforms in this area could receive its protection.
The area the Barren River Orchid Bud could cover represented the value of Blessing of the Orchid Soul. However, Lin Yuan was more interested in the Barren River Orchid Bud’s fourth function.
The Barren River Orchid Bud’s fourth ability, Barren River Guide, allowed it to anchor three types of energy and then release them into the environment, transforming it to let these types of energy become the final energies that make up the environment.
This ability could be considered a divine skill that could change the environment, easily transforming a harsh environment into one that was needed.
There were many powerful species in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. When the abyss lifeforms invaded the four universes, the native lifeforms of the four universes were doing the same thing.
The reason the powerful species of the four universes did not invade the abyss on a large scale and establish their own territories there was that the abyss environment was unsuitable for the survival of all species. Even elemental-type lifeforms could not stay in the abyss for long. Furthermore, the four universes had never found a good way to change the environment of the abyss.
However, Barren River Guide could change the abyss environment to be suitable for lifeforms in the Sky Beyond the Clouds by anchoring the spirit qi, elemental energy, and vitality. Just this ability of the Barren River Orchid Bud was enough to prove its value.
In the future, Lin Yuan would definitely explore the abyss. The Barren River Orchid Bud could help him change the environment of the abyss and allow him to establish his foundation.
It was said that there were many resources in the abyss, which was also the reason all the species wanted to explore it.
In Endless Summer’s opinion, the most useful of the Barren River Orchid Bud’s four abilities was Blessing of the Orchid Soul.
“Young Master, my Barren River Orchid Bud has been nurtured into a pure support-type sacred source lifeform. Her Blessing of the Orchid Soul is currently the most useful ability. She should be able to protect the lifeforms north of the Lonely River from now on.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan first acknowledged the Barren River Orchid Bud’s Blessing of the Orchid Soul before speaking to Endless Summer in an extremely serious tone. “Endless Summer, Blessing of the Orchid Soul is indeed extremely powerful, but it is not the strongest among all the Barren River Orchid Bud’s abilities. Her strongest ability is definitely none other than Barren River Guide.”
After saying that, Lin Yuan explained the situation to Endless Summer.
Endless Summer had always been a person with great foresight. After understanding the situation in the abyss, she immediately realized Barren River Guide’s value.
“Young Master, if you want to explore the abyss in the future, you must bring me along.”
Lin Yuan smiled and said, “Of course. If I want to explore the abyss, your sacred source lifeform’s ability is extremely important. Endless Summer, you’ve already stepped into the Holy Spirit level. You are considered to have extraordinary strength in the entire Sky Beyond the Clouds. Do you plan to stay north of the Lonely River from now on, or do you plan to go out and develop? With your Barren River Orchid Bud’s ability, you will definitely be valued by any faction in the world.”
Endless Summer was surprised to hear Lin Yuan’s words. Previously, Lin Yuan had always brought people to the Lonely River from the outside, but this was the first time he had sent a core member of Sky City out.
Endless Summer did not reply immediately. Instead, she asked Lin Yuan in an extremely serious tone, “Young Master, do you think that staying north of the Lonely River is beneficial to Sky City’s development, or do you think that I need to go out for a walk? I’m willing to follow your arrangements and act according to your decisions.”
Lin Yuan was silent for a moment before he said, “Endless Summer, whether you’re north of the Lonely River or outside, it will be very beneficial to Sky City. It’s up to you to decide what to do.
“If you leave Sky City, I will use my connections to get you to join Honor Absent Palace and become a member. Then, you will use Honor Absent Palace’s power to come into contact with the abyss first and develop there. However, you’ll definitely encounter danger in the abyss, and we can’t rely on the power of Honor Absent Palace to protect you. I’ll give you some protection then.”
Lin Yuan suddenly had this thought after seeing the Barren River Orchid Bud’s functions. Previously, he had never thought of letting Endless Summer leave the Lonely River.
Lin Yuan could not spread his influence extensively to explore the abyss, so borrowing the power of Honor Absent Palace to let Endless Summer shine first was the best choice. Before long, Endless Summer would have an extraordinary status in Honor Absent Palace.
Regardless of whether Lin Yuan wanted to explore the abyss or borrow Honor Absent Palace’s official power in the East Universe, Endless Summer would be of great help to him.
Endless Summer knew very well that much of her and Listen’s work north of the Lonely River had been completed. Whatever remained, even without her presence and with Gu Lang assisting Listen, could still be perfectly accomplished. If she continued to stay north of the Lonely River, she would lose her ability to shine. Regardless of whether it was to repay Lin Yuan or for herself, Endless Summer did not want to be marginalized in Sky City.
Endless Summer said firmly, “Young Master, I’m willing to go to Honor Absent Palace and become a member to explore the abyss for you first.”
It was worth noting that Lin Yuan did not present Endless Summer with a difficult challenge, nor did he send her to Honor Absent Palace to fight alone. Instead, she was allowed to become a member of Honor Absent Palace.
The members of Honor Absent Palace had a very high status there. Endless Summer only needed to follow the path that Lin Yuan had paved for her to achieve her goal. This was equivalent to Lin Yuan giving Endless Summer a wide stage to display her abilities. Others in Sky City did not have such an opportunity. This was an opportunity given to Endless Summer due to her sacred source lifeform.
Lin Yuan smiled. “There’s no hurry. Go back and think about it before making a decision. It will take some time for me to help you become a member of Honor Absent Palace. Before it’s confirmed, you can consider it carefully. If you have any thoughts, just tell me.”
While saying this, Lin Yuan began to ponder. He already had many channels in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. The first was to use his Bloodian connections to send Endless Summer to the Honor Absent Parliament to become a member. Fan Lou also took such a path.
The second channel was to use his Grade 5 Creator connections to recommend Endless Summer to the Honor Absent Parliament. These Class 5 Creators were very respected in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
The third method was to make use of Fortune Treasure Palace’s connections. Based on Ling Muzhuo’s attitude toward him, Ling Muzhuo would definitely not reject Lin Yuan’s request for help.
The fourth channel was to use the relationship with Diverse City’s City Lord, Zhao Chen, to introduce Endless Summer into the Honor Absent Parliament. Zhao Chen himself held an important position there. Hence, the faction behind Zhao Chen must have an extremely high status in the Honor Absent Parliament. Otherwise, Zhao Chen, a direct descendant of the family clan, would not have been able to become the City Lord of a city like Diverse City.
Lin Yuan had already started to be involved with the faction behind Zhao Chen. As the cooperation between the two sides deepened in the future, the relationship between the two sides was destined to become closer.
Lin Yuan felt that using Zhao Chen’s channel to introduce Endless Summer into the Honor Absent Parliament was a good choice.
Lin Yuan had already made up his mind to deepen his cooperation with the faction behind Zhao Chen and recruit talented individuals from Zhao Chen for Sky City.
At present, Lin Yuan had already revealed his Creation Master resources to the faction behind Zhao Chen. Lin Yuan was sure that the faction behind Zhao Chen would want to be on good terms with him after finding out about his foundation.
If he used the connections of the faction behind Zhao Chen to send Endless Summer to the Honor Absent Parliament, they would have to help solve any problems Endless Summer might encounter in the Honor Absent Parliament in the future. This was equivalent to saving Lin Yuan a lot of trouble, and it could also ensure that Endless Summer would not encounter any hidden dangers.
Lin Yuan was not in a hurry to send Endless Summer to the Honor Absent Parliament. He would patiently wait for Endless Summer to make a decision before mentioning this matter to Zhao Chen.
Now that Zhuo Yan had arrived at Diverse City, she had most likely finished communicating with Zhao Chen. The latter would contact Lin Yuan very soon.
When Zhao Chen contacted him, Lin Yuan would only need to mention this matter to him. Lin Yuan believed that if he mentioned this matter to Zhao Chen, the latter would definitely be very willing to help him.
When meeting the Grade 5 Creator Zhuo Yan, Zhao Chen was already probably thinking about how to improve his relationship with him.
