Lin Yuan had never had high expectations for the Star Vastness Peony. However, ever since the Star Vastness Peony had been contracted by Lin Yuan, it had displayed its unique functions. Lin Yuan's current outstanding physique had a lot to do with the Star Vastness Peony.
During this period, Lin Yuan had also tried to use the Star Vastness Peony's exclusive skill, Merciful Stars, to temper Spring and Winter's physique and let them obtain some benefits through the Star Vastness Peony.
The exclusive skill that the Star Vastness Peony had obtained after evolving into a Creation Breed was Star Map Shackle. Lin Yuan had originally thought that the Star Vastness Peony would continue to move in the direction he controlled, yet he was surprised to find it diverging.
After evolving to Sovereign, the Radiant Star Teardrops would gather all the energy in the galaxy and brew them in the calyx, eventually transforming them into pure star energy. The relations.h.i.+p between star energy and light-type energy could be likened to the relations.h.i.+p between water-type and ice-type.
With the Radiant Star Teardrops, the Star Vastness Peony could steadily produce a niche amount of elemental energy. Lin Yuan could use this niche elemental energy to nurture the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil.
Lin Yuan had obtained two feys that produced niche elemental energy in the Fortune Treasure Palace. With the addition of the Star Vastness Peony's star energy, the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil's transformation into Major Satan was already a sure bet and was just a matter of time.
Since Lin Yuan had taken Liu Chen and Liu Yao under his wing, he had two devil groups under his command. These two devil groups each had a Satan devil as their leader. Devil commanders were afraid of bloodlines that were higher than their own and would not submit to bloodlines of equal status. This made it impossible for the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil to control these two devil groups.
However, when the Flower Calamity Beautiful Devil became a Major Satan, everything would be different. Under the absolute bloodline suppression, it would be able to control these two devil groups perfectly.
The Star Vastness Peony had successfully evolved into a Creation Breed and obtained a new exclusive skill, Celestial Body Boost, which allowed the Star Vastness Peony to attach itself to other things or lifeforms.
Then, its spiritual energy would be applied to the lifeforms to increase the lifeforms' sensitivity towards celestial bodies. The lifeforms' link to the celestial body would also be deepened and enable it to interact with the lifeforms.
To put it simply, Celestial Body Boost could be linked with all the Star Vastness Peony's abilities and effects. Possessing a target could enhance the celestial body's ability to refine its physical form. Then, the celestial body would be able to better contact a lifeform through Star Vastness Peony in order to inject a large amount of energy into that lifeform's body.
This effect would not have much effect on Lin Yuan in a short period of time. With his physical strength, he could not absorb more of the energy in the celestial body and use it to temper his body. However, it could increase the tempering effect of the Star Vastness Peony on top experts like Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.
On a larger scale, the Star Vastness Peony had unlimited possibilities of augmenting the target's spiritual energy by strengthening the connection between things and stars.
The Star Vastness Peony's exclusive skill, Celestial Body Boost, had the most interlinked effect. Instead of calling it the Star Vastness Peony itself, it was more appropriate to call it Wen Yu.
Wen Yu's sacred source lifeform, Astronomical Parliament, had not activated after arriving in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. The sacred source lifeforms contracted by Lin Yuan and the others were almost equivalent to the treasures refined by the natives of the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
The intrinsic treasure refined by the natives of the Sky Beyond the Clouds would also be bound to their souls.
Logically speaking, Wen Yu's sacred source lifeform, the Astronomical Parliament, should have a miraculous effect when venturing into the Sky Beyond the Clouds, enabling Lin Yuan to flourish across the four universes of the Sky Beyond the Clouds and absorb more members for the Astronomical Parliament.
The reason why the Astronomical Parliament had not been restarted was not because Lin Yuan and Wen Yu lacked the intention to do so, but because Wen Yu needed to communicate with the celestial bodies if he wanted to use the Astronomical Parliament to bring people who had made wishes to the gathering place of the stars.
However, Wen Yu was too weak and the Sky Beyond the Clouds' celestial body was too high-level. It was difficult for Wen Yu to contact the Sky Beyond the Clouds' celestial body. This was the main reason why the Astronomical Parliament could not be held.
This greatly restricted Sky City's development in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.
Back in the main world, Lin Yuan had used the Astronomical Parliament to make a name for himself. Every member of the Astronomical Parliament played an indispensable role in Lin Yuan's conquest and exploration of the main world.
Without Bei Xu, Lin Yuan would not have discovered that there was a piece of land on the other side of the Barren Sea. Without Peace, it would be difficult for Lin Yuan to explore the Broiling Rock Continent.
Without Yin Lin leading the Azure Federation envoy to the Radiance Federation to work closely with Lin Yuan, Liu Jie would not have been able to obtain the transformation of the Firefly Demon Fetus.
Ta Lei, Luo Lan, and Su Yiren had also given Lin Yuan the opportunity to start his training on the Startling Lines Continent. Su Yiren had always been Lin Yuan's right-hand man.
Yin Lin, Bu Po, Ta Lei, and the others had not gone to the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Even if Wen Yu used the Star Vastness Peony's exclusive skill, Celestial Body Boost, to reopen the Astronomical Parliament, he wouldn't be able to contact them.
They could be considered to have left the Astronomical Parliament. However, Lin Yuan would never forget their contributions.
Lin Yuan was uncertain if the Sovereign X/Immortal IX Star Vastness Peony could revive the Astronomical Parliament with Wen Yu's enhancement. However, this enhancement would undoubtedly increase the possibility of the Astronomical Parliament reopening. When Lin Yuan returned to the wasteland in the North of the Lonely River, he would let Wen Yu give it a try.
The Star Vastness Peony's transformation brought Lin Yuan a pleasant surprise, which put him in an extremely good mood. After putting the Star Vastness Peony back into the Spirit Lock spatial zone, Lin Yuan looked at the time.
There were still nearly two hours until the Bloodians' banquet. Lin Yuan planned to use this time to strengthen the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake that he had just spirit-locked. After a short period of acc.u.mulation, the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake could already transform into a Suzerain/Myth Breed.
When a Fantasy Breed fey transformed its will into a law, it marked one of the most crucial transformations in its life, comparable to obtaining divine kingdom ability. The laws comprehended by a fey basically laid the foundation for its subsequent growth.
Lin Yuan had already witnessed the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's strength and had high expectations for its transformation and growth. Lin Yuan sensed that the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's bloodline had reached a critical point and was in a throbbing state.
As long as this upgrade provided the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake with sufficient high-quality energy and resources, it was very likely that its bloodline would undergo a metamorphosis.
When Liu Chen and Liu Yao were eliminating the star pirates, apart from killing them, they also spared some of them. These star pirates were used as food for the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake. With the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's exclusive skill, Six Flowers Curse, these star pirates were transformed into sub-snakes before being devoured by the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake.
Apart from that, Lin Yuan also followed the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake to retrieve the Wood-Building Winged Sandflies' pupae and various soul-type spiritual ingredients.
In the entire Sky Beyond the Clouds, even experts wouldn't have access to materials of such high caliber unless they had many high-grade Creators serving them.
Lin Yuan knew that letting his feys receive the World Cleansing in the Andra clan's mansion would definitely attract their attention. He could be said to have done so intentionally. His actions indeed have succeeded in intimidating the members of the Andra clan, as Lin Yuan had antic.i.p.ated.
The Andra clan's Elders had basically explored Lin Yuan's courtyard, but they had not found anything. It was obvious what this indicated. This meant that Black Elise was stronger than the Elders of the Andra clan. This discovery suppressed all of the Andra clan's sinister intentions, leaving them with no choice but to cooperate with Lin Yuan.
It turned out that Lin Yuan wasn't a fat piece of meat nailed to the chopping board by the Andra clan. In fact, the Andra clan was the fat piece of meat in front of him and he was holding the sharp blade.
Lin Yuan couldn't be bothered to care about what the Andra clan thought. If his obvious intimidation still didn't work, there was no need for Lin Yuan to be polite to them anymore. At most, he would just think of another way to head to the blood pool!
Lin Yuan's attention was completely focused on improving the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake. At this moment, the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake was absorbing the sub-snake star pirates while absorbing the soul-type spiritual ingredients.
It was clearly more interested in the soul-type spiritual ingredient than the pupae of the Wood-Building Winged Sandfly, which meant that the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake was rejecting its wood attributes.
As a Wood-type/Soul-type dual-attribute fey, wood attributes did not have much of an effect on the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake. The only ability related to wood attributes that the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake had was Wood Forging Armor.
Once the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake abandoned its wood attributes after its bloodline metamorphosis, the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's Silver ability, Wood Forging Armor, would also undergo an obvious change due to the change in attributes.
Lin Yuan did not interfere with the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's choice during the bloodline transformation process. He was just waiting for the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake to transform its bloodline.
Just as Lin Yuan had observed, as the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's soul power continued to increase, it began to shed its skin.
The Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake constantly expelled the wood-elemental energy from its body by shedding its skin. Every time it shed its skin, the patterns on its body would become more beautiful and distinct. The patterns on its scales seemed to have an obscure spirit attribute.
Suddenly, the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake let out a violent neigh. Right on the heels of that, an energy exploded in the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's body and enveloped it. The Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake finally began to transform!
This metamorphosis didn't last long before it returned to normal. After evolving in grade, the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's body was much smaller than before.
If the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake were to stick its head and tail together, it could fit on Lin Yuan's wrist. However, Lin Yuan's wrist was Morbius' territory, and the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake did not have the courage to share the wrist with Morbius. Even Lin Yuan's other wrist, which was not wearing Morbius, was the same.
Lin Yuan sensed the Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake's aura and was certain that its bloodline had undergone a metamorphosis. He used Morbius' True Data to investigate the transformed Six-Flowered Jade Blood Snake.

[Fey Species]: Snake Pupils/Illusion Snake
[Fey Grade]: Suzerain (1/10)
[Fey Type]: Soul
[Fey Quality]: Myth I
Abilities:
[Snake Eyes]: Controls other snake-species feys through its eyes. When its soul energy is enough to suppress other snake-species feys, it can induce them to contract or sacrifice it (Contract allows control over the snake-type lifeforms. As long as the targeted snake-type lifeforms' spiritual power does not exceed its own, it will not escape its control. When sacrificing the targeted snake-type lifeforms, it can obtain the energy from its body and use its flesh to strengthen its own physical fitness).
[Snake Coiling Defense]: Coiled its body together, allowing the entire snake body to become one. When it is attacked, it can shrink its body and increase its defense to the greatest extent.
[Soul Forging Armor]: When the soul energy is combined with the snake-species fey's bloodline, it will form an armor that interweaves with the bloodline on the surface of the body. Not only can it resist physical attacks, but it also has a certain resistance to elemental damage
[Life Prolonging Shedding]: Under the circ.u.mstances of using the Snake Coiling Defense, if the target pierces through the defense and poses a threat to its life, it will instinctively undergo a snake shedding to avoid fatal damage. Each snake shedding weakens the body and diminishes a certain amount of soul strength.
[Swift Snake Shadow]: Increases the snake-species feys under its control, allowing them to react and attack more quickly.
[Violent Venom Burst]: Activate the snake venom in the target's body, causing the slow-acting snake venom to instantly activate its poison effect and cause timely damage to the target. The poison damage to the target will be converted into healing energy to heal the army of snakes.
[Snake Devouring Rampage]: The snake-type feys under its control will devour each other and increase the strength of the main body in a superimposed manner. It will also cause the devouring main body to enter a berserk state and sacrifice itself to attack the enemy. At the end of its life, its body will explode, and the damage will be equivalent to its full strength attack at its peak.
Exclusive Skill:
[Six Flowers Curse]: Through the Six Flowers Curse in the eye, whenever the target's body is invaded by poison related to the target, a snake flower will grow from the wound. When the number of snake flowers reaches six, the target's bloodline will be forcefully changed, turning the target into a sub-snake.
[Control Strengthening]: When contracting a snake-species fey, the contract will be bound to the target's soul. Once bound to the target's soul, if the contract is shaken by external influences, the contract will spontaneously sacrifice the target to prevent it from breaking free from its control.
[Brahma Snake Totem]: Transform one's own totem into the contractor's body. The contractor will share the wors.h.i.+p of the snake-type creatures. One can perfectly control the snake-type feys and obtain the faith power nurtured by these snake-type feys.
