Chapter 469 The Power and Warning of the Four Seasons

The moment the Four Seasons Barrier shattered, Chun Yufan and the other three were so frightened that they almost used their family's life-saving artifacts to flee. However, they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiao Ruan had not joined the battle.

Others may not know the strength of the Four Seasons Barrier, but how could they not know? They are definitely no match for the being that can break the Four Seasons Barrier with a single blow.

Xia Wuju transmitted his voice and asked, "Brother Fan, should we run? The other side seems a bit fierce, and we don't think we can defeat them."

Xia Wuju began to consider retreating. Xiao Ruan's attack, the Myriad Manifestations Annihilation Ball, could instantly take away one of his pet beasts. Although he had a family with abundant resources behind him, and it wouldn't be difficult for him to cultivate another pet beast at the peak of the King level, there was also competition within the family. If he fell behind even slightly, someone else might overtake him.

Furthermore, even if the mission to kill Li Cunxu fails, he, as one of the most promising geniuses in the family, will not be severely punished.

Chun Yufan immediately replied telepathically, "Don't run."

Xia Wuju asked telepathically, "Why can't we run?"

Of course, I made a guarantee to the clan chief that I would definitely complete the task.

That's definitely not something I should say.

Chun Yufan replied telepathically, "That's just a slime. Releasing such an attack must have exhausted its spiritual energy, making it unable to release another one. If we escape now, and the next person who surrounds Li Cunxu discovers that the slime can only release such an attack once, wouldn't we be seen as cowards who are afraid of danger?"

Xia Wuju transmitted his voice, "Brother Fan is indeed very thoughtful."

With the amplification of the Law of All Things, all the pets reached the ninth level of King.

Li Cunxu's pets initially had the upper hand, suppressing the four people and their twenty-four pets in the fight, but as the battle progressed, they sensed something was wrong.

Black Flame Horse was the first to notice something was wrong.

Spring Breeze Beast, Spring Thunder Beast, Spring Sleep Beast... these were its defeated enemies. Logically, Black Flame Horse should have been able to defeat them quickly, but it didn't. It was as if they had a super-strong self-healing buff. Damage to them was healed in less than a second.

Moreover, Black Flame Horse felt the speed it had plundered was slipping away, as if that speed was returning to the bodies of the Spring Beasts.

Secondly, the one who noticed something was wrong was the Blood Lotus Flame Dragon.

It discovered that the Burning Lotus Blood Fire had burned the Spring Beast, Summer Beast, Autumn Beast, and Winter Beast controlled by the Four Seasons Family for most of the day, yet the beasts were still full of energy.

Xia Wuju raised his head and sneered, "I thought you were so strong! You're nothing special."

Despite saying that, Xia Wuju's eyes were still filled with apprehension towards Xiao Ruan, who had broken the Four Seasons Barrier.

Jiang Lingyun secretly took out an escape tool with her right hand and tugged at Li Cunxu's sleeve with her left hand.

"Boss, it seems we can't win. Should we run away?"

Li Cunxu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I deliberately left them unresolved."

Why did Chun Yufan's pet suddenly become stronger, to the point that even the Black Flame Horse couldn't kick it?

Li Cunxu actually knew the reason behind this.

It is the law of time—the four seasons—that is exerting their power.

The Four Seasons Family consists of four families that share the same lineage: the Spring Family comprehends the Law of Spring, the Summer Family comprehends the Law of Summer, the Autumn Family comprehends the Law of Autumn, and the Winter Family comprehends the Law of Winter.

The four laws of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, when they meet, will merge together to become the laws of the four seasons.

The Law of the Four Seasons, as a kind of law of time, is extremely abnormal. It can continuously refresh the state through the cycle of the four seasons. If you were injured, the injury will be completely healed after one cycle of the four seasons.

Various negative statuses will also be refreshed, such as being cursed or poisoned, and they will all disappear after the four seasons cycle once.

Each cycle of the four seasons replenishes its spiritual energy.

However, the Law of the Four Seasons also has its flaws; otherwise, Li Cunxu would have allowed the Cursed Raven, who had the opportunity to comprehend the Law of Time, to also comprehend the Law of the Four Seasons. The flaw of the Law of the Four Seasons is that every time the cycle of the four seasons is used, the pet beast will lose one year of its lifespan.

Jiang Lingyun asked, puzzled, "Can it be solved? Why leave them alone?"

Li Cunxu said, "Let's teach the little white spiders to calm their tempers and remind them that there are always mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people."

Li Cunxu's pets have always had a problem: they grow too fast and are too strong, with few rivals of the same level. They are prone to arrogance. Although he had previously given them a warning, which had some effect, the problem has resurfaced, and it is now quite subtle. Their arrogance is not on the surface but hidden in their bones, and it is impossible to see it without careful observation.

How did Li Cunxu discover this problem?

Because he had become somewhat arrogant and complacent.

As a transmigrator with experience in two lifetimes, including a past life where he successfully conquered the Lord of Endless Time, how could his pet beast avoid such a fate?
However, it's not his fault or his pet's fault, because they did grow up too fast and their minds couldn't keep up.

It's like when someone receives hundreds of millions of dollars, they become uncontrollably arrogant.

Therefore, Li Cunxu deliberately had these pet beasts, blessed by the laws of the four seasons, serve as a warning to the little white spiders.

The warning to the little white spiders is also a warning to ourselves.

When Li Cunxu saw that the little white spiders were much more serious about their enemies, he realized that the warning had worked.

"It's time to resolve this, Xiao Ruan."

Xiao Ruan immediately unleashed the Myriad Forms Sealing and True Slime Transformation. These two moves by Xiao Ruan were classic; anyone who had studied Li Cunxu's past deeds would know them. Therefore, Chun Yufan was always on guard against these two moves.

Chun Yufan revealed two treasure mirrors. One was a fifth-tier treasure, the Anti-Sealing Mirror, under which all sealing skills were ineffective. The other was a third-tier treasure, the Transformation-Prohibiting Mirror, under which all transformation skills were rendered ineffective.

The Myriad Things Sealing Technique was rendered ineffective by the Anti-Sealing Mirror, but the True Slime Transformation Technique was not rendered ineffective by the Anti-Transformation Mirror.

The True Slime Transformation Technique is an Emperor-level skill, unstoppable even by the Transformation Forbidden Mirror.

One by one, the spring beasts, summer beasts, autumn beasts, and winter beasts all turned into soft, cute, and bouncy slimes.

Not only the pet beasts, but also Chun Yufan and his three companions were turned into slimes.

The four were thrown into a panic by the sudden change. Their bodies had turned into slimes, their spatial rings had fallen off, and their personal belongings, including life-saving items, had fallen out. This made them even more panicked, and they tried to grab them back, but the round, jelly-like hands of the slime body made them very uncomfortable.

Before they could capture them, Li Cunxu's mental power swept away all the items.

The four reacted and used their mental power to snatch the item from Li Cunxu.

Although the person has been turned into a slime, their mental strength remains unaffected.

As geniuses nurtured by reclusive families, their mental strength is indeed very strong, but not as much as Li Cunxu's. Li Cunxu's main strength is quantity over quality.

While the pets were engaged in a battle of mental strength, they were not idle either.

The Spring Beasts tried to refresh the negative status of the Slime Transformation by using the cycle of the four seasons, but the transformation of the True Slime Transformation spell is quite strong, and it would take at least three or four refreshes to remove it.

It takes three or four seconds for three or four cycles of the four seasons to pass.

At this time, the Black Flame Horse unleashed its full power, aiming to kill the Spring Beasts that had transformed into fragile slimes within the allotted time.

　Thank you for your concern.

　　It's very heartwarming, and I'm very grateful.

　　Although I haven't adjusted yet, and I stayed up until 7 a.m. again today, I will try my best to adjust.

　　If things go smoothly, I'll try my best to update more frequently next month.
