Please be my partner.

In this way, the playful little fox had his own goals in life.

Melen naturally saw the transformation of Xiao Liuli. Although he felt a little distressed, that's life. Compared with Spike's torture, Xiao Honglian's loss of freedom, Garuru's darkness, and Golden Retriever's difficult survival, Xiao Liuli's childhood was perfect enough.

Now, it's time to grow up.

Mellen said softly, "Let's begin."

Little Liuli nodded her head seriously.

Suddenly, their perspective began to sink, and soon they arrived at the bloodline space.

Xiao Liuli's blood space is different from that of other dogs. There are faint wisps of pure white light mist floating in it, which gives people a sense of ethereal and sacredness.

Pure white light permeates every bloodline picture to a certain extent.

Melen could feel that these pure white lights represented the unknown origin in Xiao Liuli's body, and the scene before him meant that all of Xiao Liuli's evolved forms were affected by that unknown origin.

Melen thought for a moment, and in addition to the usual huge potential, he also added a condition that could maximize the effect of the unknown origin.

Next, Melen handed over the subsequent operations to Xiao Liuli.

After several bloodline explorations, Melen has realized that even though he and the dogs have a spiritual connection, there will still be some deviations in their thinking, so he now hopes that the dogs can evolve in the direction he wants.

Xiao Liuli naturally understood this a long time ago and materialized the conditions in her mind one by one.

During this process, Melen only needs to be responsible for burning the essence of the wolf, which is what he has always habitually called spiritual energy.

As the images rose and disappeared one after another, the pure white light contained in these bloodline images became more and more intense.

Soon, all the pictures disappeared, leaving only the last one. Compared with the other bloodline pictures which only had pure white light shining through, this picture was almost composed of pure white light.

As soon as he saw the picture, Melen had a premonition in his heart...

This bloodline is completely based on that unknown origin. Once it is chosen, perhaps Xiao Liuli's future evolutionary path will be locked like Xiao Honglian's.

Melen looked at Xiao Liuli with a questioning look.

Xiao Liuli's eyes gradually became firm and she nodded to her master.

For the little guy, it doesn't matter if he locks on the future evolutionary path, because this evolutionary path has already responded to all his expectations.

Seeing this, Melen no longer hesitated and directly touched the blood image. Suddenly, countless information rushed in like a tide...

A little fox with pure white fur is running happily in the mountains and forests. Its figure sometimes disappears and sometimes appears in other places. If you zoom out, you can see towering mountains floating in the sky, surrounded by clouds and mist, full of a sense of ethereality.

[Phantom Fox]: A descendant of fairies, nurtured by the essence of fairies, this little fox is naturally intelligent. Although it occasionally uses its illusionary abilities to tease others, it has a kind nature and is loved by fairies.

Immortal? !

On the throne, Melen suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the little Liuli in his arms who had begun to evolve, with a complicated look in his eyes.

This was the second time he heard the description of "immortal", the first time was from Master Roshi in the Fisherman's Realm.

At that time he asked, "What is an immortal?"

The latter said: "The sun and the moon hang high in the sky, immortal and free, this is what it means to be an immortal."

The immortals in the starry universe seemed to coincide with some ancient legends of the country where Melen lived in his previous life, which made him have more associations.

The bloodline image itself already contained evolutionary information. If Xiao Liuli already met the evolutionary conditions, then the moment the bloodline exploration was completed, it would mean that the last piece of the puzzle needed for evolution had been completed, just like now...

Little Liuli was wrapped in a pure white light. Through the contract, Melen could feel the little guy's pulse and its blood was sublimating.

After an unknown amount of time, the whimpering sound from his arms interrupted Mellen's thoughts. He looked down and saw that Xiao Liuli's originally red fur had turned pure white. His body shape had not changed, but his tail had become much fluffier, and when it swayed slightly, it would reflect a wisp of illusory light.

Little Liuli seemed to be surprised by her new look. She looked left and right, and finally showed a look of satisfaction.

Melen touched Xiao Liuli's smoother and smoother fur, then opened its attribute panel...

【Name】：Glass

[Race]: Phantom Fox (Deep Blue Leader) (Descendant of the Fairy)

[Racial Level]: Level 2

[Racial Skills]: Charm, Foxlight, Spirit Guard

[Evolution Direction]: →Three-tailed Fox

[Status]: In the process of fusing the essence of the immortal spirit (11%)

……

……

[Charm]: As a descendant of immortals, the Phantom Fox possesses unparalleled affability and charm, and is naturally loved by all living things.

[Fox Light]: The phantom fox can release its own unique strange light, which can confuse or purify the mind. It has a powerful hallucinogenic ability and can also purify negative states.

[Spiritual Protection]: The spirit energy of immortals always gathers around the phantom fox, which has powerful protective and healing abilities. The phantom fox can also share this ability with other lives.

After this evolution, Xiao Liuli's original racial skills [Charm] and [Shock] belonging to the red-eared fox have disappeared, and [Charm] has also undergone tremendous changes.

The awakened [Fox Light] originally only had the ability to purify, but now it also has the ability to perform illusions.

The newly born [Spirit Protection] skill will make the fairy spirit gather towards Xiao Liuli all the time. This is not only a layer of shield that can continuously and automatically repair itself, but also a healing spring that produces endless effects.

Moreover, there is a special mark behind Xiao Liuli's race...descendant of fairies.

Although Melen didn't know what this meant, he thought it must be something special.

Then, he turned his gaze to the [Three-tailed Fox] in the direction of evolution.

[Three-tailed Fox]: A fairy species, belonging to the fairy beasts, with powerful illusion ability, elegant and noble.

Evolution condition: Complete fusion of the essence of the fairy spirit.

The origin in Xiao Liuli's body is called the origin of immortality. It is precisely because of its existence that the little guy has undergone such a huge change.

In fact, if there had not been this bloodline exploration, the origin of the immortal spirit would have been transforming Xiao Liuli bit by bit, and the beggar version of [Fox Light] that it had awakened before was proof of that.

However, this transformation may take a considerable amount of time to complete, and bloodline evolution accelerates this process.

However, evolving into a [Phantom Fox] is only the beginning. Xiao Liuli still needs to completely integrate the immortal essence in his body before he can evolve into a true...immortal beast.

But that time shouldn't be too far away.

Melen could feel that if the speed at which Xiao Liuli integrated the essence of the immortal spirit when she was a red-eared fox was 1, the speed now was 10, and as her strength increased, the speed continued to increase.

Looking at the happy little Liuli in his arms, Melen also had more expectations for the so-called fairy beast [Three-tailed Fox].

Chapter 256 Joining and Testing

"I'm sorry, these are all I've found so far, and I don't know if they're useful to you." Melen said to the other members of the Council of Beasts with an apologetic look on his face.

This was the second Council of Beasts that Mellen attended. Compared with the trading items brought out by others, those he brought out were indeed not good enough. They were all temporarily purchased by him from several tribes in the spirit world, including the spirit rabbit tribe.

The cat said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. We know you are weak, so we didn't have too many expectations!"

The bear laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry about it. You can take these wolf-related extraordinary items I collected first. You can pay for them when you have more money."

Niu said gently, "Wolf, you must have just broken through the rules and restrictions of the Starry Universe and become a legend, right? At this stage, you should focus on stability and not rush for success."

Mellen nodded slightly. In addition to exchanging the extraordinary items he brought with him, he did not buy on credit as Xiong said. Instead, he spent 5000 magic gold coins to buy the wolf-related extraordinary items collected by others.

From the others' words, Melen also gained more useful information. For example, only after the inheritance of divine beasts like them became legendary could they sense the Council of Beasts and follow their guidance to come here; for example, the strength of the others seemed to far exceed that of legends...

Soon, the Council of Beasts ended.

Mellen stood up from the soft chair and carefully checked the extraordinary item he had obtained in the transaction. He felt relieved only after confirming that there was no problem.

He relaxed and leaned back in the chair. The gentle sunlight shone down, and the waves kept rolling up and down, making a 'clattering' sound. The moist sea breeze blew past, giving people a comfortable feeling.

The three little ones, Little Red Lotus, Garuru and Little Liuli, were playing on the beach, while Spike and Golden Retriever were lying on the left and right not far from Mellen. All these together formed a harmonious and warm picture.

After a long moment, Mellen exhaled and said, "Okay, we should go."

Spike and Golden Retriever opened their eyes and looked at Mellen, and the three little ones also came running over.

Then I saw the light of the little Liuli fairy spirit rising, and the surrounding sunshine, beach, and sea scenery suddenly distorted and dissipated, turning into an endless desert environment, which was the mortal desert in the spiritual world.

Everything that just happened was just an illusion created by Xiao Liuli.

Since evolving into a [Phantom Fox], Xiao Liuli's strength has increased extremely rapidly. Now it has reached the third level and can create large-scale illusions.

Of course, the strength of the illusion is invincible for the same level, but if the target is at the legendary level, unless the opponent cooperates, it can only have an unexpected effect.

It is worth mentioning that the fairy spirit is really a good thing. It can improve the environment, strengthen the body, and heal injuries. During this period, Melen basically slept with Xiao Liuli in his arms, and even his sleep quality has been significantly improved.

After staying in the Blue and Green Realm for nearly a month and making sure that there were no unnecessary movements in the Abyss World, Melen came to the Spirit Realm to participate in the Council of Beasts.

At this time, there was less than a month left before the Skywind Territory Blue Crystal Clan Exchange Meeting. At that time, Vic and Mellen had agreed that if Mellen wanted to join the exploration of the secret places in the spirit world, he just had to find him before the end of the next exchange meeting.

Now that Mellen has made up his mind to join, of course he can't wait until the last day. He plans to set off for the Blue Crystal Clan now.

A day later, Melen arrived at the Acropolis where the exchange fair was held. Although there was still a month to go before the exchange fair, it was already quite lively here.

All the shops have been filled with goods in advance, and there are many native tribes in the spiritual world or outsiders from other worlds.

Since it was still early, Mellen did not go to look for Vic immediately, but spent a few days purchasing various items at the exchange fair Acropolis.

A few days later, Mellen stopped shopping and entered Blue Crystal City, arriving at the address that Vic had told him. This was a luxurious villa near the center of Blue Crystal City.

When Melen explained his purpose, the servant immediately invited him into the living room to wait.

Not long after, Vic brought a few people to the living room. When he saw Mellen, he immediately smiled and said, "Mellen, it seems that you already have the answer to my invitation."

Melen nodded calmly and said, "Yes, I hope to join your team and explore the secret places of the spirit world."

"It's a wise decision," Vick said. "When we return home with a full load, you'll be glad you made the decision today."

Looking at Vic's sincere expression, Mellen was speechless. He understood that this might be because the former was used to being superior, so he would always unconsciously sound condescending when talking to him.

At this moment, a voice suddenly interrupted their conversation: "Vic, you are the captain of this expedition to the secret place of the spirit world. Naturally, you have the right to invite other members, but at least let us understand why he is qualified to be our teammate?"

Mellen then turned his attention to the three people who came with Vic.

The first one was the one who had just spoken. He looked like a human youth, wearing a loose robe, with a somewhat defiant expression and a faint light in his eyes. When he was looked at by him, Melen felt as if he was naked and had been seen by others.

This blatant peeping made Melen extremely unhappy. Golden lightning flashed in his eyes and he glared back.

The rebellious young man only felt pain in his eyes. Countless scenes of fighting and killing rushed into his mind unexpectedly, making him dizzy and taking two steps back.

Ignoring the unpleasant expression on the rebellious young man's face, Mellen looked at the other two.

A man wrapped himself in a black cloak and stood in an inconspicuous shadow corner as soon as he entered the living room, looking very insignificant.

At first, Melen didn't pay attention, but when he looked at him carefully, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen this person before.

The other one is a non-human. It looks like a flower that is one meter tall, a bit like a sunflower, but its petals are silver and are constantly radiating little bits of light. There is a vague smiling face in the flower disk, somewhat similar to a child's sticky drawing. It doesn't look creepy, but rather cute.

Vic frowned and said to the rebellious young man, "Xinke, Melen is a partner I personally invited. He is also a powerful mechanic. He plays a vital role in our exploration of that secret place in the spiritual world."

The rebellious young man named Xinke said coldly, "So what if he's a mechanic? With Tiana here, we have no shortage of cannon fodder for exploration. Besides..."

Xinke glanced at Mellen and said sarcastically, "He's just a recent legend, and he's injured. Vic, you know how dangerous that secret place in the spirit world is. Do you really want to let someone like him travel with us?"

Vic was stunned when he heard this. He glanced at Mellen calmly, then said apologetically, "Sorry, Mellen, I haven't introduced you yet..."

He pointed at the rebellious young man and said, "This is Xin Ke. Even though he has a foul mouth, he's actually a nice guy."

Amid Xinko's dissatisfied "Hey hey" sounds, Vic pointed at the flower and said, "This is Tiana from the Star Moon Territory, belonging to the Starlight Flower Clan."

Finally, Vic pointed at the man in the black cloak and said, "The last one... well, his identity is a little..."

The man in the black cloak waved his hand gently and said, "It's okay. Mr. Mellen and I are already acquaintances."

As he spoke, he took off his cloak. Melen immediately recognized him: "Is that you? Lucas?"

At the end of the last exchange meeting, because Melen exposed the Titan Colossus, Lucas came to him hoping to exchange the design drawings of the Titan Colossus. In the end, Melen exchanged the [Void Energy Light Tower] and [Light Brain] from the latter.

Facts have proved that Mellen's choice was correct. Both the [Void Energy Light Tower] and the [Light Brain] played a vital role in the previous war.

Lucas nodded slightly to Mellen and said, "Long time no see, Mr. Mellen."

After seeing the slightly strange looks from several people, Lucas explained: "I had a transaction with Mr. Mellen before, that's all."

This made Melen's heart move slightly. He remembered that when Lucas made a deal with him, he also said something like "You are from the Sas Saint Clan, and your identity is relatively sensitive." So now the latter's explanation seems more like he is actively distancing himself from him to prevent him from getting into trouble?

This made Melen feel a little favorable towards Lucas.

After greeting everyone one by one, Vic said, "Xinke, Mellen is our partner on this trip."

Xin Ke curled his lips and said, "Then you should at least let me know his exact weight, right? Just telling me about the mechanics isn't enough. Haven't we already collected a lot of mechanical artifacts for exploration?"

"This..." Vic fell into deep thought and looked at Mellen with some embarrassment.
