Chapter 367 - The Fallen Evolution of the Three-Headed Hound
By getting the Three-Headed Hound to go through the Fallen Evolution, Su Hao could get first-hand experimental data, while the Three-Headed Hound could break through its bottleneck and rise rapidly.
It was a win-win situation.
In fact, the benefits of the Three-Headed Hound were much greater.
But all of this had a premise: It had to succeed.
Once it failed, at best, it would waste a lot of precious materials. It might even hurt the foundation of the sprite.
Therefore..
Before Su Hao came, he was already prepared to be rejected.
He knew that he wouldn’t fail, but he also knew he couldn’t ask others to trust him unconditionally.
Especially since he had never completed his own sprite advancement.
Clinical trials in other hospitals had to go through many procedures, and so did sprite experiments.
historical
So far, only Master Sprite Cultivators had successfully helped other sprites complete their advancement rituals.
Of course..
Of course, Su Hao himself also had an impressive track record. He only came to visit because he was confident in himself.
After Instructor Sun finished listening to him..
There was some surprise in Instructor Sun’s eyes.
He didn’t expect that Su Hao, who had just been appointed as an instructor, was actually doing his own research at this moment. Moreover, he was researching a major research project like universal evolution.
The actions of a genius were indeed..
Instructor Sun Gaoang didn’t reply immediately.
He was thinking.
His Three-Headed Hound’s talent potential was still alright, but after working hard until now, the level of extraordinary high-level seemed to be its limit.
There had not been any obvious improvement for several years.
He had also brought the Three-Headed Hound to consult some Master Sprite Cultivators, but..
The few masters either couldn’t find an idea, or they expressed that they weren’t confident.
One of the masters had once suggested that the Three-Headed Hound could be arranged to advance with a huge evolution ritual.
But the success rate was still only 30 to 50%.
The price was also very high. Apart from the materials needed by the Three-Headed Hound itself, it also needed to pay a consultation fee equivalent to the value of three top-notch treasures.
It made Instructor Sun Gaoang unable to make a decision for a moment.
At this moment..
Instructor Sun looked to the side.
He looked at the tall Three-Headed Hound, which was comparable to a small sedan, and saw desire in its three heads and three pairs of eyes.
It was the desire to become stronger.
He then looked at the document Su Hao gave him.
There was some simple information regarding the advancement ritual, Three-Headed Hound, and Fallen Evolution.
After reading it, he closed his eyes and opened them again. There seemed to be light in his eyes. “Alright, I agree!”
“Give me a list of the materials you need. I still have some savings over the years! However, I need to be allowed to observe the entire evolution ritual.”
“Of course.”
Su Hao reached out and shook hands with Instructor Sun Gaoang.
“I need some time to conduct a comprehensive examination and observation of the Three-Headed Hound.”
The two of them discussed some related details again, and Su Hao bade farewell and left.
After he left..
Instructor Sun’s old friend, a year-two instructor from another school, wanted to say something but stopped himself. He thought about it and said, “Do you really want to hand the Three-Headed Hound to him? How much research experience does he have? The risk is too high!”
Instructor Sun Gaoang shook his head slightly and walked in front of the Three-Headed Hound. He stretched out his hand and touched the huge head.
“It really wants to become stronger.”
“Over a year ago, if it wasn’t for the low success rate of the Giganticization Evolution proposed by Master Hong, I would have tried it.”
“What about now?” The instructor couldn’t help but ask.
“Now?” Instructor Sun Gaoang smiled, his eyes shining bright. “From the information just now, it can be seen that Su Hao already has a very deep understanding of Fallen Evolution. It’s not a spur of the moment.”
“The success rate won’t be lower than the Giganticization Evolution. Moreover, I’m very sure that the Fallen Evolution is more suitable for the Three-Headed Hound than the Huge Evolution!”
However, none of this mattered if it did not succeed.
“Besides..” Instructor Sun shook his head again.” I’m only a master-level Sprite Trainer. I don’t have the ability, and I can’t afford the expensive consultation fee of a top-level master. This is the best opportunity for me and for my sprite. ”
..
The next day, Instructor Sun brought the Three-Headed Hound to visit.
With the power of a school instructor, Su Hao borrowed an ordinary laboratory and carried out a full-body examination on the Three-Headed Hound.
This wasn’t an act. He really needed to carry out the examination.
Only by grasping the specific data and information of the Three-Headed Hound, would he be able to reduce the Intelligence Points required to unlock the advanced plan—for example, Butterfly and the others sometimes only required 12 Intelligence Points all because Su Hao knew them very well.
“Besides, giving the Three-Headed Hound a checkup is also a learning process for me.. This is the first time I have a chance to study powerful sprites cultivated by others at close range.”
Su Hao put on his white coat.
Butterfly used an illusion to change, and its light yellow dress also turned white. It picked up various testing devices, and the expression on its little face gradually became excited.
Three-Headed Hound: I am scared!!
..
Ten days later.
After completing the testing, research, and unlocking, Su Hao had already designed an advanced plan that was completely suitable for the Three-Headed Hound.
He started to arrange the advanced ritual.
The location was to be set at Whale Island University, at a cultivation venue for fire-element sprites.
It just needed some modifications.
“Is it okay to start so soon? I’m not in a hurry..”
Before the ritual, Instructor Sun started to get nervous.
Su Hao could only explain that he had already researched the Fallen Evolution many times and was able to convince him.
Su Hao couldn’t exactly spend a few months on preparations
Early in the morning..
Su Hao and Instructor Sun arrived at the fire-element venue.
The whole venue had already been booked and renovated two days ago.
The venue that was originally filled with lava and erupted red flames from time to time had already changed a lot at this point.
In the lava pools, the red flames that spewed out turned purple-black. They burned fiercely and spread like rivers, converging into the centermost large lava pool.
The entire large lava pool was covered in cracks and collapsed inward. The flowing lava was purple-black. On it, countless black flames roared, sometimes turning into the shape of dragons, sometimes into tigers.
This was a venue set up with a precious fire seed as the core.
It was also the key to the ritual.
“Have you prepared all the other materials?”
Su Hao looked at the two huge boxes in the hands of one of Instructor Sun’ sprites.. the Fire God Soldier.
“Of course.” Instructor Baldy Sun gestured. With a click, the Fire God Soldier opened the two special boxes. Instantly, waves of bright treasure light shot out.
The Ring of Darkness!
This was the most important top-notch treasure for the ritual.
As for the other two top-notch materials, one was a special fire seed that had already been set up on the field. The other was called “Heart of Black Flame”. It had already been absorbed by the Three-Headed Hound three days ago.
At this moment, the Three-Headed Hound, which had absorbed the top-notch treasure, had a stronger aura than before.
But it only increased by a little, and it still hadn’t reached quasi-Heavenly King.
From this, it could be seen that if one wasn’t ready to advance, even if it was given precious treasures to absorb and improve, it would only have a small increase in its aura.
Hu ~
Su Hao started to set up the venue.
Above his head, Butterfly snapped its fingers, and countless materials flew out from the two boxes and landed everywhere on the field. The materials that landed were also wrapped in a faint light membrane, which could protect some relatively ordinary materials from the surrounding black flames.
Butterfly was really getting better at being an experimental assistant.
“Gurgle,” → _ →
Apart from Su Hao and Instructor Sun, there were also others present.
There was the nameless instructor who had doubted Su Hao, as well as Senior Wu and Master Yao.
Master Yao had also brought his assistant along.
At this moment, they were adjusting the heavy devices. Black ripples spread out from some of the devices, while another device was crushing countless spiritual jades and extracting the purest spiritual force to inject into the area in front of them.
The purpose of these devices was to create and complete some venue conditions that were originally not very satisfactory.
Seeing that Su Hao was so professional, Instructor Sun Gaoang’s originally nervous and worried mood also became much calmer.
The venue arrangements and equipment adjustments were being carried out in an orderly manner.
Very soon..
“We can begin.”
Su Hao said, staring unblinkingly at the Three-Headed Hound walking towards the lava pool step by step.
He couldn’t help but look forward to it.
After all, it was also his first time seeing the advanced evolution of a sprite.
Boom!
The Three-Headed Hound went into the lava pool and squatted quietly.
Time passed bit by bit.
The burning purple-black flames seemed to start to resonate with it. The Three-Headed Hound’s red skin gradually turned dark red.
Su Hao observed the data changes and kept track of the time.
Very soon..
“Throw in the attribute essence! And the Elemental crystal!”
“Gurgle ~!”
With a psychic grab from Butterfly, balls of light flew towards the Three-Headed Hound in the huge lava pool.
It was very effortless.
Butterfly had finally grown according to its own expectations.
..
Advanced evolution was the process of a sprite breaking through its limit evolution. It was clearly different from the first or second stage evolution in the past.
One of the differences was time.
Transforming a sprite from the inside out, or even to different races, required a considerable amount of time.
“The estimated time is a day and a half.”
This time was neither fast nor slow.
It wasn’t fast because the Three-Headed Hound had just absorbed the “Heart of Black Flame” not long ago and hadn’t completely refined it yet.
It wasn’t slow because there were some advanced rituals that relied on hard work and subtle modification of sprites bit by bit. Those that took a long time would take months.
The plan given by the interface naturally wouldn’t be so troublesome.
But to Instructor Sun Gaoang, a day and a half was still a long time.
In the lava pool, the Three-Headed Hound’s figure was already gone.
Countless purple-black flames interweaved, turning into a huge black cocoon that was erected in the lava pool.
Inside the black cocoon..
From time to time, the painful roars of the Three-Headed Hound could be heard.
But another invisible aura was gradually rising.
Would this plan succeed?
Will the Fallen Evolution really work?
Once the evolution failed, would the Three-Headed Hound’s foundation be damaged because of this?
Su Hao didn’t know about Instructor Sun Gaoang’s concerns.
But the calmness on his face gave the others a lot of confidence.
Beside him were Dazed Crow, Big Fat Bear, and other sprites—who had the opportunity to observe an advanced evolution that was rare. Naturally, they wouldn’t want to miss it.
The little guys all stared intently. Only the Big Fat Bear was very worried.
Is the advancement ritual usually so painful?
Does the bear also have to go through this..
Stare—
Su Hao used Sprite Commandeering to glare at the bear, making it shut its mouth.
Seeing that the time was about right, he said, “Butterfly, move the “Ring of Darkness” directly above the huge black cocoon, and move the other materials according to the design.”
Instantly, some spiritual materials were absorbed and teleported away.
The black ring that emitted wisps of dark energy slowly flew to the top of the huge cocoon.
It stopped.
Countless black smoke fell like threads, enveloping the huge black cocoon.
At this moment, the conditions were met. The dancing black flames around the arena were all absorbed into the huge black cocoon. Terrifying energy waves exploded, and a thick black light pillar shot into the sky, piercing through the clouds.
