Standing quietly in the depths of North Canyon, Yu Zi Yu began to sort out his current achievements as a Tier-4 Transcendent.

 

“About 11.2 million Spiritual Energy…” Yu Zi Yu murmured to himself as a faint smile appeared on his lips.

 

Such abundant Spiritual Energy had already undergone a qualitative change.

 

Now, even just the resonance of his Spiritual Energy alone could cause massive fluctuations in the air akin to a tsunami.

 

What was even more terrifying was that each of his abilities and even his Innate Talents had undergone transformation.

 

With this in mind, Yu Zi Yu’s gaze shifted towards his status screen.

After taking a deep look at the familiar and luxurious status screen, Yu Zi Yu felt somewhat satisfied.

 

Four Innate Talents, five Divine Abilities, and countless Unique Abilities.

 

It would be hard to find a second person with such a luxurious status screen in the world.

 

Unique Abilities might be easier to come by, but Innate Talents and Divine Abilities were rare. It was only because Yu Zi Yu had great opportunities and immense luck that he could gather so many.

 

Moreover, with the help of Evolution Points, he had fully developed all of these Innate Talents and Divine Abilities.

 

“If I want to advance further, these abilities must be integrated and polished…” while pondering, Spiritual Energy began to surge within Yu Zi Yu.

 

The next moment, with a burst of powerful aura, the world seemed to darken.

 

At this moment, if one were to look towards the depths of North Canyon, they would certainly see dense clouds and mist rising from the earth.

 

Mastery of Mist was a very practical ability. With the increase in Yu Zi Yu’s Spiritual Energy, the range covered by the dense fog generated by this ability has also expanded.

 

Moreover, given some time, he could even shroud half of a continent with this fog.

 

However, that was not the scariest part.

 

What was truly frightening was that the Mastery of Mist could be combined with Hallucinogen, with one obscuring the visibility, while the other confusing perception.

 

Together, they could turn the area covered by the mist into an isolated place, cut off from the rest of the world.

 

As of now, wherever the fog passed by, Beasts and Humans alike retreated.

 

And Yu Zi Yu intended to use these two abilities to shield himself from prying eyes.

 

 

*Boom…* With a surge of billowing and rolling clouds of mist, the white mist covering the entire Misty Mountains grew even denser.

 

Faintly, visibility was reduced to less than 3 metres. However, such visibility was quite common for the Mutant Beasts of Misty Mountains. In fact, most of them had evolved Unique Abilities to adapt to this mist.

 

For example, the depths of the Storm Wolf Clan’s eyes often flickered with a faint green glow, which imparted them the ability to see through the fog.

 

Whereas the Rat Clan relied on their keen hearing.

 

As long as Yu Zi Yu didn’t use his Hallucinogen ability, they could roam freely in the mist.

 

However, while this thick fog was something the creatures of Misty Mountains were accustomed to, for outsiders, Humans and other Mutant Beasts included, it was a true nightmare.

 

It not only deprived them of their sight but also affected their other senses. Inside this mist reduced their combat effectiveness by 40-50%.

 

This was a testament of the sheer terror of this mist. Not to mention the Mist Beasts that Yu Zi Yu had yet to unleash.

 

 

At this moment, visible to the naked eye, an endless expanse of mist spread out like waves in all directions.

 

And wherever this fog passed, roars and growls echoed one after another as various clans hidden deep within Misty Mountains surged along the mist, following Qing Gang’s lead.

 

The mist was a signal of Misty Mountains: Every place shrouded in the mist was the territory of Misty Mountains.

 

And their task was to guard this territory.

 

Simply put, it was to expand their territory: Any Mutant Beasts daring to resist them were seen as enemies and mercilessly hunted down.

 

For Yu Zi Yu, his current level of cultivation made the expansion of his territory an inevitable consequence.

 

Given the current size of Misty Mountains’ territory, just Yu Zi Yu alone could cover a fifth of it, and his roots spread over the entire Misty Mountains underground.

 

Let alone Yu Zi Yu, even other Mutant Beasts, including the major clans of Misty Mountains would find it difficult to accept such a narrow territory.

 

Initially, Yu Zi Yu refrained from expanding aggressively to avoid attracting attention, but now, the time was ripe.

 

Yu Zi Yu would naturally no longer hold back.

 

“With this expansion, my territory will be ten times larger than before. In other words, I’m going to truly occupy an area the size of a province in China, or even larger,” muttering to himself, Yu Zi Yu playfully cast a glance in the direction of China.

 

[They should be panicking the most by now.]

 

However, China posed little threat to him now. If they struggled to deal with the Invasion of Sea Beast, how could they possibly handle Yu Zi Yu now?

 


Ashish: As the status screen in the raws was missing most details and many abilities, I decided to list it again, and again because this list is based on lower levels, and does not have corresponding upgrades in their introduction. So, while I will update their levels, the introduction will remain older.

Abilities: Mutant Branch (Level 4)  It’s more robust and able to imbue different types of Spiritual Energy.

Mutant Roots (Level 4) – Each root is as dreadful as a Flood Dragon. They can absorb plants and animals as nutrients. What’s even more terrifying is that upon contact with plants and animals, these roots can also extract Spiritual Energy, which further strengthens their ability to strangle their prey.

Spiritual Field (Level 4) – The concentration of a million Spiritual Energy can even distort magnetic fields, which in turn ripples through reality, affecting the surroundings.

Mastery of Mist (Level 4) – You can control the mist at your will. While the mist serves as the eyes, it can also transform into anything you want.

Illusory World (Level 4) –You can create an illusory world at the expense of Spiritual Energy, and make everything sink into it.

Blood Covenant (Level 4) – Originating from the ancient Blood lineage, this terrifying ability can create contracts using blood as a medium to bind others. However, what’s even more terrifying is that through the Blood Pact, you can completely enslave others, from their bodies to their souls, creating entities akin to familiars.

Flying Willow Leaf Blade (Level 4) – After nourishing the willow leaf with your Spiritual Energy, continuously refining it, you can shoot the leaf like a blade. The purer the refinement, the more smoothly the Spiritual Energy can flow through it, and the farther the range and greater the power of the Flying Willow Leaf Blade.

Wood Dragon (Level 3) – The primary root has transformed into a Dragon, taking one step to achieving the pinnacle. The absorption power of the primary root is greatly enhanced, enabling it to consume all things and devour everything, until it firmly takes root in the deepest part of the planet and uses the entire planet as a nutrient.

Minor Divine Ability: Crystallization (Elementary-level) – By harnessing the power of the earth, one can crystallize parts or even the entirety of the body. This crystal-like body can significantly enhance one’s defenses. If mastered, one can truly become indestructible. It would be next to impossible to destroy its user, unless attacked by another Divine Ability.

Feather Firestorm (Elementary-level) – Gathering an immense amount of Fire Element in the sky, one can create a massive deep-red vortex. Within this vortex, an unending flurry of flame feathers keeps materializing, until they come down from the sky, incinerating everything. It is a terrifying offensive divine ability.

Ice Age (Elementary-level) – Using this ability, one could instantly freeze the earth, oceans, and even the air, turning a region into a glacier, reenacting the most primitive and terrifying ice age.

Grand Divine Ability: Enlarging and Shrinking at Will (Elementary-level) – Consuming a certain amount of Spiritual Energy, one can reduce their size to the size of a dust particle, or grow to the size of mountains and hills. Simultaneously, the user’s defense remains unchanged, only the size changes. (Note: The bigger the transformation, the greater is the Spiritual Energy consumption.)
