The Evolution Compendium

The werewolves in pursuit all had charred faces, yet seeing His Highness so confident, their vertical pupils lit up. If they obtained the Furnace of Life and won this Divine War, the Golden Child would achieve great merit. As his followers, they too would rise with the tide.

Then, they saw a young man, his entire body exuding a faint golden light, trailing a vast amount of Thunder Strike as he chased Andre. Behind him, Hong Yu followed closely, a charming smile on her face. The werewolves suddenly fell silent.

Albert's expression froze. He was stunned for a moment, then looked toward Mo Yun. Countless fierce sparks of lightning flickered, continuously falling towards the young man. The lightning tore through the sky, shattering the void. In other words, these powerful lightning strikes were actually aimed at this human teenager; Albert himself had inadvertently blocked them by consuming the Golden Tree.

Andre announced, "The Furnace of Life is in his hands. Moreover, it seems to have activated the mighty power of the Life Sequence."

"What!" This news shocked Albert. The Furnace of Life was incomplete and couldn't possibly be activated, which was why he had chosen to ambush Avril, consume the Golden Tree, and complete the Holy Relic.

Yet, the Furnace of Life was activated by this inconspicuous ant? And because of a misunderstanding, I even helped him block countless Thunder Strikes! Damn it!

"Kill him," Albert said coldly, his fingers clenching, unable to suppress his anger. He had planned everything, yet ultimately, an inconspicuous ant had taken advantage of him, causing him to lose face. The proud and noble Golden Child could not afford to suffer such a loss!

One must remember, a group of Alien Races is watching from outside the White Tower. If this isn't handled promptly, won't I become a huge laughingstock!

RUMBLE!

The rolling thunder grew fiercer. The werewolves, terrified by the Thunder Strikes, dared not get close. But could a mere human truly cause any waves? The werewolves activated their Bloodline Domains and surrounded Chu Yi, their faces showing disdain. There were so many of them, and he was just one, relying only on the mighty power of the Golden Tree.

If we can't get close, can't we just use long-range attacks? one thought. Immediately, a werewolf unleashed a claw strike. Countless strands of blood qi condensed, transforming into a giant claw that descended from the sky.

"Don't move," Chu Yi ordered, one hand gripping the female werewolf's neck, holding her in front of him. Under the Thunder Strikes, the female werewolf had long since lost her strength and was in agony. As a result, she was hit by the giant claw. She let out a low cry of pain as parts of her body shattered. The attacking werewolves were shocked and uncertain. This female werewolf was from the Void Demon Wolf clan, and her status was much higher than theirs.

"Despicable human! This Heir gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it," Albert sneered, looking down haughtily at Chu Yi. He paused for a moment. Realizing that many Alien Races were watching from the White Tower, he maintained the demeanor of the Golden Child and said in a deep voice, "This is the last time. If you hand over the Furnace of Life, I will not only grant you the status of a follower but also give you a bloodline baptism and entry quotas to multiple Secret Realms."

As his words fell, the other werewolves were startled, their eyes filled with fervor. Such treatment could be described as reaching the sky in a single step.

Andre stood beside Albert, as Albert had hired him again with a significant sum of resources. The price was very high, and Andre couldn't refuse. Why would he reject the chance to earn extra money?

RUMBLE!

Blazing lightning, trailing fierce sparks, tore through the sky and struck a cluster of golden light.

Chu Yi squinted and smiled. "Sounds good," he said, "but I've already declared my allegiance to Miss Avril's camp. If I were to defect halfway and switch sides, I would look down on myself."

Avril, hidden from view and seated on a marigold, subtly curved her pink lips. Her blood-red eyes watched the seemingly righteous young man with a hint of appreciation.

"So, am I to understand that you are refusing?" Albert said coldly. He had improved the offer this time, only to be refused again. Does he truly think the Golden Child's charity is so cheap? His expression soured. Not only had he been inadvertently shielding this human from disaster, but now his direct invitation was refused, further humiliating him.

Chu Yi smiled elegantly, bathed in golden light, a graceful expression on his exceptionally handsome face. With the werewolves dispatching Albert, surely Miss Avril from the Morgan family, his counterpart, isn't so simple. Perhaps she's watching from the shadows. I must show my loyalty and secure the patronage of a core member of an ancient Vampire family. That way, Lias and I can have a better life, avoid werewolf retaliation, and Lias will have a path to advancement. It's absolutely not because of those pretty Jade Feet.

"Good!" Albert closed his eyes. The next moment, his vertical pupils snapped open. Ethereal purple Runes rose from within them, and an ancient power spread throughout his body. "Then go die!"

He pressed down with his large hand. Amidst ghostly cries and wolfish howls, a giant wolf hundreds of feet tall materialized, wreathed in blood-red baleful energy, looming like a majestic mountain. This spectacle made the countless observing Alien Races, and even Lias, Nine Infants, and others outside the Golden Tree, lift their heads to gaze at the massive purple wolf.

"AWOO~"

The giant wolf let out a long howl. The space around it cracked and twisted as its body sprouted numerous greedy maws and was covered in a dense cluster of bizarre eyes. Its vast form descended upon a slender figure, disregarding even the female werewolf.

From her hidden vantage point, Avril's delicate face wrinkled. She didn't want the werewolves to destroy her new toy. Suddenly, her small hand, poised to act, paused.

Facing this strike, Chu Yi thought, By a fortunate coincidence, someone shielded me from disaster, allowing me to pass the Celestial Tribulation and refine the Human King Body. He activated [Creating from Nothing], deriving its laws. The Human King Body is almost complete. Once I endure this, the Deceit Beast's strength will be openly usable, and then I'll go on a rampage!

The next moment, he was slightly dazed. Dark green hair fluttered, carrying a pleasant, faint fragrance, as the Dragon Maiden appeared just in time. Is it the silly Dragon Maiden shielding me?

Mu Yun's proud figure underwent a partial dragon transformation. Patches of emerald-gold scales appeared on her fair, exquisite face, and her entire right arm had already transformed. She didn't glance at Chu Yi, suppressing her wildly beating heart. Her Dark Gold Dragon Pupils fixed on the descending giant wolf as she swung her arm.

"Chu Yi, you gave me so many good things to eat! You better not keep secrets like this from me next time," Mu Yun said, her face pale. Yet, her fist shone with a dark gold hue, a force of annihilating vitality swirling around it.

The Jade Dragon, master of life, could both dispel the Fire of Life and annihilate any living being. However, this also consumed her origin power.

BOOM—

A beam of dazzling light burst from Mu Yun's delicate body, illuminating everyone's vision. An astonishing destructive force condensed into a line and pierced through. The gigantic wolf trembled and dissipated like smoke, its existence erased by the mighty power of the Dragon of the End.

After delivering her strongest strike, Mu Yun's delicate body went limp, and she fell unconscious. The next moment, she once again found herself in a broad, warm embrace, her breathing frail, as if hanging by a thread. Her condition was critical.

Chu Yi gazed at the Dragon Maiden's spirited yet pale face and fed her some restorative delicacies. Miraculously, the feeling of being targeted by the Celestial Tribulation retreated. Understanding the laws of causality, Chu Yi belatedly realized: Albert's attack was also part of the tribulation!

"Interesting. This Dragon Witch seems to be deeply devoted to you." Albert's aura surged to its peak as he hovered above. He couldn't help but be surprised by Mu Yun's strike. The annihilation of life... is the bloodline of the Jade Dragon beginning to awaken?

Everyone present showed surprise, but they believed this was merely a minor interlude, incapable of changing the final outcome.

"Hiding behind a woman—you're truly timid and cowardly," Albert sneered. "Now, without the interference from the Golden Tree's residual mighty power, your path ends here!"

With his declaration, the other werewolves also sneered and lunged forward, their Bloodline Domains erupting with astonishing momentum.

It's time to act, Avril thought, a slight smile curving her lips. The group of corrupted Blood Race members with her simultaneously revealed sly grins. But just then, her eyes lit up, and she glanced at her "new toy" with surprise and doubt.

Facing the encirclement of the wolves, Chu Yi remained silent, embracing the Dragon Maiden. His golden light had dimmed somewhat, but at this moment, a brilliant arc of electricity flickered around him.

Human King Body, refined!
