Chapter 1990
1990 The Holy Lady’s Sh.e.l.l!
The Holy Lady’s response confirmed Lin Yuan’s guess.
The Sacred Wood Mystic Realm did require Creation Master resources to exist. Otherwise, the Holy Lady who represented the lifeform would not be displeased by the less-than-ideal number of Creation Masters present.
When no one responded, Su Jian took a step forward and said, “Lordess Holy Lady, the Yang and Yi families might have business to attend to. It is plain disrespectful to fight for spots despite having no intention to appear at the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm! If the Yang and Yi families had not fought for so many spots, you wouldn’t feel such a large gap in attendance compared to previous years.”
Su Jian knew that once the Su family took over the Divine Wood Federation’s imperial court, they would have to maintain a good relations.h.i.+p with the Holy Lady.
While he was thinking about how he needed to maintain a good relations.h.i.+p with the Holy Lady, Su Jian did not forget to stain the relations.h.i.+p between the Yang and Yi families.
Her expression promptly fell when the Holy Lady heard what Su Jian said.
“Since there are fewer people this round, any faction that discovers and wants to obtain a plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline will have to put in more Creation Master resources to make up for the loss of attendees.”
The Holy Lady’s words caused every member of the factions present to frown.
This was the first time that this happened in the history of the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
In the past, even when there was no lack of attendees at the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm, the price of obtaining one plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline was already heavy.
But now, the high price was going to increase by 14%.
Most factions could not afford this price.
High-cla.s.s Creation Master resources were too precious to factions with only Cla.s.s 4 Creation Masters.
In recent years, as the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm opened frequently, the Creation Master resources needed to obtain a plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline increased.
Thus, a plant-type fey with a weak Sacred Wood bloodline might not be equal to the Creation Master resources invested into obtaining it.
Bai Dong sighed.
After the Holy Lady appeared, he could not leave the sacrificial altar.
The last time the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm opened, a junior from the Yu family had tried to leave the sacrificial altar after the Holy Lady appeared and ended up killed by the Holy Lady.
Thus, Bai Dong had no choice but to give up on going home to report the news.
When Lin Yuan saw the frowning and sour-faced Holy Lady, a look of amus.e.m.e.nt came over him.
The Holy Lady was truly treating the Sacred Forest City factions as a farm from which she could harvest.
She was throwing a temper because the harvest was thin this time! She even raised the price of the plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline. She sure was not shy about being greedy!
This allowed Lin Yuan to know that every time the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm opened, the lifeform would set a requirement of Creation Master resources.
Lin Yuan had asked Ding Chengshuo and found out that most of the resources paid to the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm had to be Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master resources. In order to trade for one plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline, a Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master needed to work endlessly for two months.
A Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master could supply a significant number of Creation Master resources with two months of non-stop work. The product of 100 Cla.s.s 4 Creation Masters’ non-stop work for two months was unimaginable.
Take Lin Yuan’s army of Hundred Questions Beasts.
Since Genius was the only one that could stand toe-to-toe against pinnacle Cla.s.s 4 Creation Masters and the other Hundred Questions Beasts were only at the level of pinnacle Cla.s.s 3 Creation Masters, the total output of the army of Hundred Questions Beasts still could not compare to the amount that the lifeform in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm collected from one round of the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm’s opening.
After collecting such a mountain of Creation Master resources over the years, there was no way that the lifeform in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm could be weak even if the resources were not Cla.s.s 5 Creation Master resources.
With this thought, Lin Yuan used his spiritual energy to contact Genius to tell it to send the Kill Food Sky b.u.t.terfly to fetch White Speak.
White Speak’s power was currently at pinnacle Immortal.
When it faced off against the pinnacle Immortal Shark Awn, its power had slightly surpa.s.sed pinnacle Immortal without reaching Eternal after Lin Yuan’s faith power boosted it.
Previously, Lin Yuan’s faith power had not been overly powerful.
But after the past few months and the various events that led to explosion after explosion on Star Web, as well as the live-stream Radiance Hundred Sequence selection and battle with the Freedom Federation envoy group, the amount of faith power in the shrine in Lin Yuan’s soul had multiplied.
If Lin Yuan used his faith power to boost White Speak now, White Speak’s power would definitely be able to break through past Eternal.
No matter how strong the lifeform in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm was, there was no way it could have reached Eternal! If it did, Lin Yuan also had the Extreme Token given to him by the Moon Empress, the Fish World Sea Trump Card that he could activate using the mermaid bloodline, as well as the blessing of the sea demon with the Purple Frigid Heavy Water.
As such, he still had a fighting chance against an Eternal expert.
Lin Yuan had already used True Data to check on the Holy Lady and found that he could not see data like he normally could for feys.
At that moment, Lin Yuan heard Morbius’ voice in his ear, “Partner, this figure known as the Holy Lady is merely a sh.e.l.l. There is a creature that she is hosting. Otherwise, True Data wouldn’t come up blank!”
Morbius’ words made Lin Yuan think back to the fight against Han Qi and the rest when they had fused with their devils.
Since the devils were hiding in people’s bodies, Morbius had been unable to use True Data on them.
Lin Yuan knew from how the Holy Lady was nothing more than a host that was in the service of the lifeform in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm that the Holy Lady would be the key to finding that lifeform.
Lin Yuan had a clear goal for entering the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
It would be great if he could fulfill his objective quickly!
Since the lifeform in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm was after Creation Master resources, it was likely that the lifeform would use the Holy Lady to stop him if he allowed the factions who could not pay up Creation Master resources to try to trade for plant-type feys with the Sacred Wood bloodline.
At that time, it would be much easier to handle many matters if he faced the Holy Lady in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.
At that moment, Lin Yuan could see the clear worry on the Holy Lady’s face.
Evidently, he was bothered by something. However, Lin Yuan did not have a possible reason at the moment to explain the Holy Lady’s expression.
