Shortly afterward, a crisp electronic synthesized rang in Yu Zi Yu’s ear,
<Ding, your Apostle has just killed a Tier-0 Level 6 Mutant Gray Wolf, you gained +12 Evolution Points.>
Listening to this notification, Yu Zi Yu’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Evolution Points +12? One-fifth, huh? Not bad.” Pondering, Yu Zi Yu curled his lips and chuckled.
Though a one-fifth rate of conversion was not as high as he had hoped, it was better than nothing!
Moreover, for Apostles like Aisha, Yu Zi Yu had no intention of having her massacre Mutant Beasts. Alone, no matter how many she killed, the Evolution Points provided would be limited. Instead of doing so, Yu Zi Yu planned to have Aisha return to the Alliance of Southeast Asian Nations under his banner, and continue her role as a nun for Buddhism.
If possible, Yu Zi Yu could also use her to initiate a war.
Not a war between Humans and beasts but a war between Humans themselves.
Presumably, with the Alliance of Southeast Asian Nations acting as restraint, China would not be able divert much of its resources to deal with a tree like him, which was rooted somewhere in the Misty Mountains.
What was even more important was the number of Evolution Points a war could provide.
Yu Zi Yu did not know how many exactly, but he had a feeling it would be quite satisfying.
[After all…]
As if he remembered something, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze was drawn to the nearby canopy, where a luminous Spirit Flower as bright as the sun itself was burning with white flames.

Elemental Flower (Fire)— Can transform creatures into Fire Elemental Lifeform. |
Fire Elemental Lifeform was highly aggressive and had devastating power, far surpassing Earth Elemental Lifeform.
If an existence like this erupted on the battlefield of Humans…
Imagining such a scene, the corner of Yu Zi Yu’s lips curled slightly.
In his mind, he also thought of an excellent Fire Element Ultimate Move — Meteor Firestorm.
Flames falling from the sky like meteors, incinerating everything, regardless of friend or foe.
“By then, even if the conversion rate of Evolution Points is only one-fifth, it should still be quite a lot,” murmuring, a hint of excitement welled up inside Yu Zi Yu.
Obtaining Evolution Points just like that for nothing really came as a pleasant surprise.
However, at that moment, as if he remembered something, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze returned to the description of Blood Covenant.
After a moment, a voice full of helplessness sounded in the air, “It’s as I expected!”
Yu Zi Yu understood that the total number of Blood Covenants he could sign was limited.
Each time a Blood Covenant was signed, it placed a pressure on his mind.
Additionally, there were some risks associated with the signing of a Blood Covenant. For example, if an Apostle was killed by psychic power, it may even trace back to the source and hurt Yu Zi Yu.
Of course, the probability of that happening was rather low. After all, there were very few entities skilled in psychic powers, and even fewer capable of tracing the source of the Blood Covenant.
Nonetheless, there was one thing that was set in stone, the number of Apostles was limited.
One reason is that Yu Zi Yu’s mind could bear only that much burden. The second reason was that too many Apostles would do more harm than good for Yu Zi Yu.
If they were captured by entities skilled in psychic powers, there was a high possibility of harming Yu Zi Yu himself.
Such a situation had to be guarded against.
“Which means that the selection of Apostles must be prudent one and they should have powerful combat abilities, be difficult to kill, and, if necessary, be able to actively shatter the Blood Covenant to protect me,” muttering to himself, Yu Zi Yu made a decision, [For now, Aisha would be the only Apostle.]
As for the others, Yu Zi Yu had no intention of nurturing them.
The main purpose of choosing Aisha as an Apostle was to disrupt the situation at China’s border, not to harvest Evolution Points.
…
That night, at the top of the Himalayan Mountains, clouds and mist abounded…
A towering giant tree, half frozen, and half in flames, was swaying along the wind.
At this moment, not far from it, stood a girl of foreign origin, holding a Spirit Flower of white flames and gazing at it with a solemn gaze.
“Aisha, make the most of this opportunity, after all, it only comes around once.”
“Yes, Master.” With a gentle nod, Aisha’s expression grew even more serious.
Although she was now Yu Zi Yu’s Apostle, Aisha still had her own thoughts. This was another terrifying aspect of the Blood Covenant – controlling the servant without affecting the servant’s free will.
In other words, Aisha now had her own cognition and the ability to think for herself.
She deeply understood the value of the precious Spirit Flower in her hand, which could change a person’s Innate Talent and even transform her into a higher being. an Elemental Lifeform.
The fact that her Master had given this precious item to her so readily filled her with gratitude.
After a moment, her red lips slightly parted as the Spirit Flower turned into liquid and disappeared into Aisha’s mouth in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterward, Aisha felt a violent and extremely domineering force engulfing her.
A deafening roar reverberated through the sky, shaking the ground and the very sky.
Looking up, a swirling firestorm, dozens of meters high, rose from the ground.
Within this fire tornado, a calm and delicate face appeared from time to time. However, that visage was no longer of flesh but seemed to be formed from flame.
Though lifelike, it was now composed of fire.
It had a hint of ethereality and sanctity.
“I was born from fire and I shall burn within it until I am reduced to ashes…”
A soft and gentle murmur rang, like a vow and a promise, full of solemnity.
“It seems the transformation is complete.”
With a faint smile, Yu Zi Yu gazed at a tall and graceful figure gradually emerging from the firestorm not far away.
The second Elemental Lifeform.
Moreover, it was a Fire Elemental Lifeform, known for its ferocity, dominance, and terrifying destructive power.
“An Elemental Lifeform, coupled with Aisha’s Innate Talents should be enough to shake the Alliance of Southeast Asian Nations, right?” muttering softly to himself, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Yu Zi Yu’s lips.
In a moment of reverie, he could already see an image of a flame sorceress, engulfed in a sea of fire and incinerating everything, slowly walking out of the battlefield.
“I, Aisha, bearing the name ‘Fire,’ greets Master.”
In a sincere voice, the flames that covered the sky converged, ultimately taking the shape of a tall and graceful figure.
At the same time, a figure with hands clasped together like a devout believer, also entered Yu Zi Yu’s sight.
