Lin Yuan said solemnly to the three of them, "I want to ask you a question. I hope you will tell me the answer if you know it!"

Ice Wave, Ice Clarity, and Ice Flow all pulled serious expressions.

With how grave Lin Yuan's expression was, the three of them would respond with utmost seriousness regardless of what his question was.

Ice Flow was the least calm of the three, but his brain was also the most active one!

He had already sensed the Moon Empress had not sent her disciple to lead the meeting with the Vast Sea Labyrinth because she wanted him to be the one to make the tough decisions—he had the capabilities to head such a meeting.

Although Purple Love had not spoken much about Lin Yuan, Ice Flow had heard about him from his wife.

The person on the best terms with the Heavenly Family Cottage was actually not the Moon Empress but someone close to her. It was likely that this referred to Lin Yuan!

Ice Flow was aware of the Moon Empress' abilities. She had awoken her birth horoscope not long ago, and the Sacred Cry Moon Beast had only just reached Above Eternal. If she could, she would have already tried to take down the Freedom Federation long ago rather than waiting until now!

All the changes to the Radiance Federation that began two years ago happened to coincide with the time the Moon Empress took in her disciple.

With this thought, a chill ran up Ice Flow's back when he looked at Lin Yuan again. Once this thought formed, Ice Flow only became increasingly certain it was the truth.

When Ice Wave heard what Lin Yuan said, he said seriously, "If it is something I know about, I will definitely lay it all out on the table without holding anything back! Feel free to ask whatever you want! Even if the matter concerns the Vast Sea Labyrinth's deepest secrets, I will reveal them to you!"

As such, Lin Yuan asked softly, "Have you heard of Epoch God Palace?"

Ice Flow, Ice Wave, and Ice Clarity's expressions all changed when they heard this question. They had indeed heard of Epoch God Palace.

The Vast Sea Labyrinth held a deep history, and their privileges stemmed from ancestors. Despite never encountering Epoch God Palace directly, its existence was recorded in their ancient texts. It was a mysterious and fearsome organization. When they communicated with them, they couldn't fully grasp the Epoch God Palace's capabilities.

Records also suggested that Tower Canon once clashed with Epoch God Palace, attempting to steal their time-related artifact. But an Epoch God Palace leader intervened, and that generation of Tower Canon's Eight Pages vanished.

Among the vanished, First Page Crimson reappeared unexpectedly, catching everyone's attention, especially Ice Wave's. He had witnessed First Page Crimson's formidable power during a previous interaction. This drove him to study Tower Canon's history through ancient records, gaining his current knowledge.

Ice Wave shared all this with Lin Yuan, confirming Lin Yuan's suspicions. First Page Crimson belonged to Tower Canon's initial Eight Pages.

This confirmation hinted that the initial Eight Pages, who controlled the dead world, had come from the Sky Beyond the Clouds for an unknown reason.

It was likely that this applied to Epoch God Palace as well!

However, Lin Yuan could not shake the feeling that Epoch God Palace was not safe. There was a high possibility that Epoch God Palace would become an even more difficult enemy to deal with than Tower Canon!

Luckily, he had uncovered Tower Canon's plan. However, he did not have a single clue about Epoch God Palace's plans or goals!

Nonetheless, Lin Yuan was sure they were working toward a goal. Otherwise, they would not have remained hidden and waiting in a corner of the main world for so long.

Now that he was confident he would be able to tackle the dead spirits crisis, Lin Yuan decided to begin searching Epoch God Palace's experts and make contact with them!

He had heard about a fight between Epoch God Palace and Tower Canon from Ice Wave. This alone was enough.

After answering Lin Yuan's question, Ice Wave seemed to muster up an immense amount of determination before he told Lin Yuan about the deal he had made with Tower Canon in the past.

Ice Wave felt much more relaxed after confessing his mistake.

The Moon Empress knitted her brow when he heard what Ice Wave said.

He had helped Tower Canon to collect death aura from the bottom of the sea, and it was because of this large amount of death aura that the Sleeper's Revival plan was able to commence smoothly.

Lin Yuan also frowned. But his brow relaxed quickly.

Firstly, he knew that removing a large amount of death aura from a piece of land would be beneficial for the lifeforms that lived on it. Ice Wave had made that decision because he was a true king of the sea clans and was trying to improve their quality of life.

Furthermore, Tower Canon's plan had been shrouded in secrecy, and Ice Wave had not been aware of it. His only crime would be carelessness and neglecting to check thoroughly.

Even if he had not made the deal with Tower Canon, the latter would have found another way to gather the death aura from the bottom of the sea.

There were also a few of the Radiance Federation's 32 major cities that had their death aura unknowingly drained.

Ice Wave could have hidden what he had done from the Radiance Federation but chose to reveal it of his own accord. This was enough to prove his sincerity in working with the Radiance Federation.

"What has passed has passed. I only hope that going forward, the Vast Sea Labyrinth will do its best in the war against the dead spirits. We have discussed all that we need to discuss.

"Why don't we leave the details for later, once you are done relocating the sea clans? The Radiance Federation will help the sea clans defend against the dead spirits! Not only will we supply you with Land Imps, but we'll provide you with resources as well."

Ice Flow, Ice Wave, and Ice Clarity looked deeply into Lin Yuan's eyes. He had not mentioned anything about profits at all. He was purely trying to use his abilities to save the sea clans and help them overcome this crisis!

This magnanimity caused the three of them to feel extremely ashamed!

After the three of them left, the Moon Empress looked at Lin Yuan with gratification.

It turned out that this was how he conducted deliberations!

From Lin Yuan's interactions with the Vast Sea Labyrinth's three rulers, the Moon Empress got a sense of how Lin Yuan interacted with others during his path of growth, especially with the Dictators from the dimensional worlds.

It was at that moment the Moon Empress realized that Lin Yuan was smiling.

She was rather curious. What was there to be happy about now?

Lin Yuan heard Red Thorn asking him which part of its body it should evolve. It only asked this question when it was about to evolve its grade.

Among all of Lin Yuan's feys, Red Thorn's evolution was the slowest. It had been stuck at Platinum IX/Fantasy V for three months with no signs of evolving to Diamond grade.

But in actuality, Red Thorn's power had far exceeded its expected potential!

A Platinum/Fantasy V source-type lifeform could use the Tongue of Relinquish to control an Afterlife Realm corpse and wield it as a living weapon. Not even Platinum feys possessed such abilities!

Moreover, Red Thorn was now a pinnacle six-winged fairy and was showing signs of evolving to eight wings.

If Red Thorn could grow a fourth pair of wings when it evolved to Diamond grade, it would be able to set a new record in history for fairy source-type lifeforms.

"Master, I have a fey that is about to evolve. I need to find a wide and quiet place. Once I have helped it to evolve its power, I will go with Ice Wave and the rest to the Vast Sea Labyrinth. The sea clans are supplying the Island Whales to help us humans with our migration. I am going to help them to repay them!"

The Moon Empress nodded before raising her hand and helping him to adjust his collar again.

"Since becoming a Class 6 Creation Master, I have made achievements of my own in the past year. I have nurtured a special fey that can increase the amount of spirit qi that spirit qi professionals can contain in their bodies. It will be able to help spirit qi professionals promote their spirit qi professional rank quicker.

"After nurturing this fey once by accident, I haven't been able to nurture a second one, even using the same method. Once you return, you can form a contract with this fey. From then on, you will no longer be hindered by your spirit qi professional rank!"

Lin Yuan looked delighted when he heard what the Moon Empress said.

It could be said that the only thing holding Lin Yuan back was the promotion of his spirit qi professional rank.

After he contracted this fey, his spirit qi professional rank would reach S+ at least while the dead spirits crisis was going on.

From then on, the evolution of the grades of Lin Yuan's feys would no longer be limited!

Lin Yuan did not stand on ceremony with the Moon Empress. A fey that could help a spirit qi professional to increase their rank faster would not be of much use to an expert like the Moon Empress.

"Master, that will be a big help to me! The promotion of my spirit qi professional rank is what I am lacking the most now!"

The Moon Empress was very glad she could help Lin Yuan.

She reached out and patted the hair on top of Lin Yuan's head.

"Little Yuan, I know that even with the impending dead spirits crisis, your power will not fall back to the level of the Radiance Federation. But remember to always keep your movements hidden, no matter where you are! Tower Canon's Eight Pages will definitely be watching you at all times. Don't give them the chance to target you! I will be waiting in the Radiance Federation until you return."

Lin Yuan nodded at the Moon Empress before transporting himself through Node Transportation to a remote area outside of Ascending Dragon City.

This was not the same place where Morbius had increased its power.

Morbius' evolution had caused far too much commotion. Lin Yuan had been afraid that Morbius' large amount of World Grace would catch the attention of the higher beings in other worlds and cause them to zero in on the main world.

When Begin Lady and Celestial Sight underwent their Heaven's Trials, Lin Yuan had confirmed that the Heaven's Trials were controlled by those higher lifeforms!

Lin Yuan composed himself and summoned Red Thorn, fairy form and original body.

Lin Yuan had not looked at Red Thorn's data in a long time, and he used True Data on it.

[Fey Name]: Red Thorn (Six-Winged Fairy) (Thousand Eyes Relinquish)

[Fey Species]: Rafflesia genus/fairy species

[Spirit-Lifeform Grade]: Platinum (10/10)

[Fey Type]: Source/Wood

[Fey Quality]: Fantasy V

Abilities:

[Mouth of Relinquish]: Secretes vigorous digestive fluids with powerful corrosive properties, allowing a faster speed to absorb the energy in the food. The Tongue of Relinquish inside the mouth is able to increase the digestion speed by several times. It can also secrete a special corrosive fluid from the flesh and blood that it consumed. When the Tongues of Relinquish pierce a target, the tip of the tongue can be cut off and left in the target's body. While the target remains alive, the tip of the tongue will control the target's spirit and soul. After the target dies, the tip of the tongue can control and manipulate the target to make it appear as though it was still alive.

[Brutal Carnivore Vine]: The vines contained digestive fluids that grew in midair, and the sharp teeth on the inner side of the vine could grind off and collect flesh and blood energy.

[Eye of Relinquish]: Eyes formed by using blood and flesh energy. Each eye contains a huge amount of blood and flesh energy. When the number of Eyes of Relinquish on every Mouth of Relinquish is maintained below 60, they are merely able to store energy. When the number of Eyes of Relinquish is above 60, those Eyes of Relinquish that are above 60 can be turned into an energy ray at any time.

[Sea of Flowers State Transition]: By quickly using up the stored-up energy, the sea of flowers' child ramets' attacking power and mobility can be improved several times. The child ramets' weapons will also morph in a way that increases their functionality.

[Demon Spirit Curse Kill]: Whenever any of the ortet's ramets touched an enemy target and breaks through a target's defense, the target will be cursed. Every curse carries a negative effect that would be stacked with every additional attack.

Exclusive Skill:

[Spore Growth]: Spits a huge amount of spores, which can absorb the energy or flesh energy supplied by Red Thorn, out of its spore cavity to quickly grow ramets and child ramets that are controlled by the ortet.

[Wither Glory]: Red Thorn can rapidly absorb the energy from the soil and pour the energy into the sea of flowers. As long as the soil has the roots of the child ramets and ramets, the withered sea of flowers would reach its prime state.

Lin Yuan stared at Red Thorn's data for a moment. He felt it had reached the pinnacle of capabilities for a lifeform that fought by establishing a land formation and expanding it.

There was no other way in which Red Thorn's sea of flowers could be improved.

Even if Lin Yuan found a minute detail and tried to evolve it, its benefit would be negligible.

Given the circumstances, Lin Yuan felt he should pivot away from evolving Red Thorn's sea of flowers.

Since Red Thorn could control the Abyss Great Emperor through the Tongue of Relinquish, Lin Yuan felt he could evolve that part during Red Thorn's next evolution!
