[Side Quest]Advance to Seventh Transformation (Emperor Level)

Quest Requirement: Successfully complete Seventh Transformation: 0/1

Materials Needed for Seventh Transformation:

Tier Seven Demon Core ×10; Tier Eight Demon Core ×1; Bell Emperor Grass ×1.

...

In the VIP room of Linlang Pavilion, Ling Yuwei brought a brocade box and opened the door to the room where Lin Yi was, immediately speaking as she entered:

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"Because Bell Emperor Grass is a main material for crafting high-tier Promotion Pill, there isn't much stock on the market."

"So it took some time to find it."

Saying this, Ling Yuwei placed the brocade box on the table.

Lin Yi came over from the side and opened the brocade box.

Inside were the materials Lin Yi needed for the Seventh Transformation advancement:

[Tier Seven Beast Core]

High-grade material

Tier: Seven (maximum ten)

"It contains enormous magic energy, which can be absorbed using special methods."

Usage: Alchemy, Advancement, Enchantment, Array Formation.

Ten gray-brown beast cores the size of pigeon eggs were neatly arranged inside.

Next to them was a dark red Tier Eight Beast Core, larger than the Tier Seven Beast Cores.

Beside the beast core was a pale yellow specimen of:

[Bell Emperor Grass]

High-grade material

Tier: Eight (maximum ten)

"This special plant requires very specific growth conditions and contains a trace of the Power of Order, greatly increasing the chance of breaking through bottlenecks."

Usage: Alchemy.

Lin Yi looked at these items and asked:

"These must be quite valuable, right?"

"How much do you need? I'll give it to you."

Ling Yuwei seemed to have anticipated Lin Yi would say this, responding:

"My father mentioned it."

"These things are nothing compared to the bottle of Holy Water you gave."

"By the way!"

Ling Yuwei seemed to suddenly remember something:

"What exactly is that bottle of Holy Water?"

"Why does my father treat it like an invaluable treasure, not even letting me touch it?"

Lin Yi shrugged indifferently and explained:

"It's just a potion slightly more precious than a 'high-level Life Potion'."

Ling Yuwei gave Lin Yi a skeptical look:

"Forget it then."

At this point, Ling Yuwei also knew well that Lin Yi was about to do something important.

So before Lin Yi could say anything, she suggested:

"Alright, I've delivered the items, I'll head back first."

"If Lin Yi has any more requests for assistance, feel free to ask."

Just as Ling Yuwei was about to turn and leave, Lin Yi quickly called her back:

"Wait a moment, Ling Yuwei."

"Hmm?"

Ling Yuwei stopped in surprise, directing a questioning gaze at Lin Yi:

"Is there something else?"

Feeling the hint of warmth in Ling Yuwei's gaze, Lin Yi pretended not to notice, then reminded:

"Just, no matter what happens here in a while."

"Until I give permission, please don't allow anyone to come near."

"Just this?"

This time, Lin Yi clearly sensed a flicker of disappointment in Ling Yuwei's eyes.

Although Lin Yi didn't know what she was expecting.

But there are some things better clarified beforehand, so Lin Yi nodded:

"Yes, just that."

Seeing Lin Yi had no further requests, Ling Yuwei's face suddenly softened into a smile, concealing her inner dismay:

"Alright, I'll personally arrange that."

Without waiting for Lin Yi to speak, she turned and left.

Watching Ling Yuwei's departing figure, Lin Yi could only go to the door and say:

"Thank you!"

Though initially only crossing paths once.

But there's no denying.

Ever since Lin Yi arrived in this unfamiliar land, this woman's assistance to Lin Yi has been the greatest.

And most needed.

Lin Yi is naturally not adept with words.

Thus, for all the help she's provided, Lin Yi can only keep it in heart.

When the day comes she needs it.

He will surely repay abundantly.

As Ling Yuwei gradually walked away, Lin Yi then slowly closed the door:

"Click~"

As the door shut, just preparing to turn into the corridor, Ling Yuwei suddenly halted.

She glanced back at the room Lin Yi was in, unable to hide the disappointment on her face.

But quickly, she masked this disappointment quite well…

In another hall, Ling Yudao watched Ling Yuwei approaching and asked:

"Did you ask what he plans to do with those things?"

Ling Yuwei shook her head directly:

"Didn't say."

Ling Yudao's brow furrowed suddenly:

"What is this kid up to?"

However, at that moment.

Ling Yudao suddenly stood up from his mount, looking stunned towards the direction of Lin Yi's quarters, exclaiming:

"Advancement, he's aiming to advance!"

Ling Yuwei froze upon hearing this:

"What?"

Ling Yudao couldn't explain much right now, quickly saying:

"I'll go check."

With that, Ling Yudao vanished from the spot.

Shortly after, a massive magic tide swirled above the house where Lin Yi was staying.

Instantly.

The entire Jialan Imperial Capital's mages almost simultaneously sensed this colossal magic tide, causing an uproar.

On the Nine Nether Continent, when mages advance, they elicit a magical resonance and a magic tide appears.

And as the advancement level gets higher, the energy of the magic tide becomes stronger.

Previously, when Ling Yuwei advanced to Tier Six, it caused quite a stir.

But at this moment, this energy density was evidently much higher than Ling Yuwei's.

Even exceeding the usual Tier Seven...

Ling Yudao stood in front of the courtyard, watching the tightly closed door, stunned:

"Tier Seven? No!"

"Tier Eight? Doesn't seem like it either!"

"Wasn't this kid Tier Six before?"

Thinking about the preparations Lin Yi made earlier, Ling Yudao was filled with confusion:

"Could it be those are his advancement materials?"

While everyone was curious about who was advancing, suddenly!

Dark clouds swiftly gathered above Linlang Pavilion, thunder roared.

A visible storm was brewing within the thick thunder cloud formed.

Under the puzzled gazes of some, Ling Yudao unexpectedly exclaimed:

"Thunder Tribulation!!"

"Is he attempting to undergo a thunder tribulation?"

Feeling the terrifying energy within the thunder cloud, Ling Yudao couldn't believe his eyes as he looked at the cabin below:

"Could it be he's trying to advance to Tier Nine, hence triggering the thunder tribulation?"

"Impossible."

"This can't be!"

At this moment, Ling Yuwei ran over with a panicked look:

"Father, what's happening?"

"What's going on."

Ling Yudao's expression was grave as he instructed:

"Immediately disperse the people around."

"Also, surround the area and don't let anyone near."

When Ling Yudao had barely finished speaking, a voice suddenly appeared beside him saying:

"No need!"

Ling Yudao turned around in shock.

Only to find out when Frederick, the Pope, had arrived beside him.

Facing this man at the pinnacle of power on the Nine Nether Continent, Ling Yudao had no choice but to bow:

"Your Holiness the Pope."

"Why did you come."

Frederick didn't even glance at Ling Yudao, waving his hand:

"You can leave now, I'll watch over this."

Ling Yudao dared not hesitate, and prepared to leave with Ling Yuwei.

And at this moment, Frederick suddenly said:

"Remember."

"Do not tell anyone about what happens here."

Ling Yudao was alarmed internally, but only managed to maintain a façade of calmness as he replied:

"Rest assured, Your Holiness, we understand."

Inside the room, Lin Yi faced the options before him, caught in a dilemma:

"Please choose your advancement path:"

⑴. Rafam Continent: Can complete Seventh Transformation directly (success rate 100%; All Attributes +30%).

⑵. Nine Nether Continent: Advance to Tier Seven after overcoming Thunder Tribulation (success unlocks new system; failure results in death and return to Rafam Continent).
