CHAPTER 432: CHAPTER 248: EVOLUTION SUCCESSFUL, SEVEN-TAILED HOLY FOX (2)

Lin Chen said: "It’s gambling anyway, and it’s not certain that we’ll lose yet."

With the help of this evolution, the little fox has reached level 41, but it needs to wait until level 42 to awaken a new skill.

Liu Gu didn’t say much; according to a Catalyst Master’s experience, it likely failed this time.

However, he quickly regained his spirits. After all, the successful evolution of the little fox is certainly good news. He smiled and said, "Let’s first look at the successful evolution of the little fox. This time, a full drop of Phoenix Essence Blood was used; the effect shouldn’t be too bad."

Lin Chen also nodded.

With the little fox’s talent, even if the next skill isn’t Phoenix Karmic Fire but some other awakened skill, it won’t be bad.

After all, this is a Divine Fox with Heart-Burning Fire Control.

The little fox jumped directly to Lin Chen’s side, and the latter quickly said, "Put away the True Fire, it’s burning me."

"Goo~~"

Only then did the little fox quickly cancel the True Fire Mode.

Lin Chen glanced at its fox tail, feeling somewhat unreal.

The little fox used to have only one fox tail, now it has seven.

It’s only two away from the ultimate Immortal Beast Divine Fox.

Pondering, Lin Chen placed his hand on the little fox’s head, anticipating its changes.

...

[Seven-Tailed Holy Fox]

[Advanced Sacred Beast]

[Level: 41]

[Dominant Bloodline: Holy Fox 36.2432%, Flame Fox 1.1%, Flame Fox 2%]

[Hidden Bloodline: 35.2%]

[Polluted Bloodline: 25.4568%]

Seeing this bloodline, Lin Chen was overjoyed. After this evolution, the little fox actually maintained a full 35.2% of its Hidden Bloodline.

With this in mind, next time it impacts the Divine Beast Level, perhaps its Hidden Bloodline can be increased a bit more.

Thinking this, Lin Chen continued to look down. Although the little fox hasn’t awakened new skills, Lin Chen anticipates whether it might have successfully evolved skills:

[Skill 1: Super Fireball (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 2: Flaming Storm (Divine Enlightenment)]

[Skill 3: World-Purifying True Flame (Perfection)]

Upon seeing this, Lin Chen frowned.

This World-Purifying True Flame is really difficult to evolve.

Lin Chen had hoped that through this evolution, the little fox could directly achieve the Divine Enlightenment Level for World-Purifying True Flame. Who would have thought it wouldn’t evolve this time, despite previous anticipation of the final form of World-Purifying True Flame.

But Lin Chen, though disappointed, soon brightened up.

[Skill 4: Heart-Burning Fire Control (Perfection)]

Lin Chen almost laughed aloud; although World-Purifying True Flame didn’t evolve, Heart-Burning Fire Control surprisingly evolved from Mastery to Perfection Level this time.

This is indeed great news because, according to the Beast Taming Treasure Manual, Heart-Burning Fire Control is among the hardest levels to advance.

Continuing to look down:

[Skill 5: High-Speed Flame Burst (Mastery)]

Skill five also improved.

Seeing this, Lin Chen was extremely satisfied.

The advancement of Heart-Burning Fire Control and High-Speed Flame Burst effectively elevated the little fox’s explosion capabilities by one level.

Lin Chen conveyed the news of Heart-Burning Fire Control’s evolution to Liu Gu, who also nodded, indicating it wasn’t a waste.

At this time, the little fox beside them made a "goo" sound, asking whether to test it?

Liu Gu immediately stopped it; now the little fox’s Heart-Burning Fire Control is increasingly abnormal. If it drops a bomb, he won’t need his house anymore.

They went outside to find an empty space, and once the little fox had eaten and drunk enough, they prepared to start testing.

Since only two skills evolved this time, the tests were much simpler.

"Goo!" The little fox let out a powerful roar, its body glowing brightly, instantly entering an evolved state.

It raised its head high, sharp light flickering in its slit pupil, as if it could see through all worldly things, carrying a contemptuous arrogance that looked down on all life.

The previously cute and ordinary appearance vanished without a trace, replaced by a powerful and majestic sacred beast pressure, making the surrounding air seem to solidify.

Its body continually changed within the glow, its fur no longer the mundane red, but an intertwining of vibrant crimson and blazing gold, as if bursting forth from extreme temperatures—magnificent and dazzling.

The most captivating feature was the layer of unquenchable, ever-present fire that adorned its body.

Currently, the fire burned bright red, blazing fiercely, bringing rolling heat waves.

Even though the people stood afar, they could still clearly feel the terrifying aspects of the fire.

After pondering, Lin Chen already had a testing goal. He first let it test the evolution effect of High-Speed Flame Burst.

The little fox followed Lin Chen’s instructions, launching a High-Speed Flame Burst.

After observing, Lin Chen quickly drew conclusions.

The speed increased significantly, the power also rose notably.

This belongs to a normal evolution effect.

Then Lin Chen eagerly let it activate Heart-Burning Fire Control test, which was the most crucial.

"Try whether it can fuse in Samadhi True Flame state." Lin Chen hoped.

Previously, Heart-Burning Fire Control was at Mastery level, and the little fox could only fuse skills in the True Flame of Er Mei state; now that Heart-Burning Fire Control is at Perfection level, Lin Chen hopes for new changes.

If the little fox were able to use Samadhi True Flame skills fusion, the enhancement in power would be tremendously terrifying.

The little fox nodded, then directly entered True Flame Mode. They could see that the fire coat on its exterior instantly turned to an incandescent color.

Looking at the ground’s sand and stone, there were traces of melting.

Lin Chen closely observed the color in this True Fire state; indeed it was as Liu Gu said, the Phoenix Karmic Fire previously wrapped in True Fire had long disappeared.

Instead, it was pure incandescent.

Lin Chen wasn’t disappointed, because this was inherently a gamble.

Just then, the little fox began fusing skills, starting by fusing Super Fireball and Flaming Storm.

The seven tails swung, the flames quickly converged, rapidly forming an incandescent fireball about the size of a basketball.

Seeing this scene, Lin Chen hurriedly asked Liu Gu and the others to step back a bit...

Because previously, the little fox attempted fusion in Samadhi True Flame state, resulting in failure and subsequent explosion.

The energy of True Fire is too fearsome, requiring highly proficient skills to merge.

Lin Chen even pondered, even if the little fox awakened Phoenix Karmic Fire, mastering the fusion of both flames would be exponentially more challenging.

Though the little fox now merges two skills, they ultimately belong to the same type of flame.

If it’s two flames of different nature, the aggressive attribute within the flame would inevitably amplify.

Pondering, the little fox had readied Flaming Storm, controlling the two skills to slowly move closer.

At this moment, Lin Chen swallowed hard.

Watching the little fox fuse skills was like watching tightrope walking—a single misstep, and it would end in failure.

The two incandescent skills approached, making sizzling sounds before even touching, when they fully met, a popping sound echoed in the air, causing Lin Chen and his group’s hearts to tighten.

However, the little fox seemed to treat it like an everyday affair, now long used to it.

Two clusters of white flames quickly intertwined, then commenced violent collisions; several times it seemed like failure imminent, yet ultimately the little fox forcibly suppressed them.

Visible sweat broke on the little fox’s forehead; clearly, this fusion was exceptionally difficult.

Yet, it maintained absolute concentration.

The two merged, intertwined, energy continuously resonated, issuing deafening roars.

Gradually, Flaming Storm and Super Fireball outlines began to blur, merging into a new, more potent energy body.

"It’s about to succeed!"

Lin Chen clenched his fists excitedly, resisting the urge to shout.

Now is the critical moment; he couldn’t disturb the little fox.

Liu Gu also saw it; if the little fox could use Samadhi True Flame fusion, its power would increase exponentially.

The little fox showed more stability this time, maintaining composure at the last moment.

"Goo!"

Using Beast Power, after one second, it finally controlled the new energy fire mass steadily.

Subsequently, a gigantic flame vortex solar mass firmly formed above the little fox’s head.

Thus, the True Fire Nuclear Bomb of Samadhi True Flame version...

Complete!
