Chapter 268: Setting Up Thousand Layered Waves, Fog Turned Into Clouds! (First Update)

At night, a bonfire was lit in front of the three-story tall silver-white building. A fat wild boar was skewered on a long bamboo stick made of tree branches. Under the burning flames, it was slowly turned over, and drops of oil dripped down, making crackling sounds. Waves of rich fragrance spread, causing the people sitting around to swallow their saliva and move their fingers.

“I’ve been practicing my roasted pig technique for several years. Everyone who has eaten it says it’s good.”

One of the elite Sprite Trainers said.

At this point, apart from the twelve people in the team, the five Sprite Trainers stationed at the research station were also sitting at the side. The atmosphere at night was rather lively.

The station commander at the research station said, “In this Sky Lake, the most delicious food is none other than the ordinary fish in the lake. Under the frozen water, fish can survive and reproduce. The meat is very fresh and delicious, just hard to catch.”

“It is not easy to dive into frozen water. Catching fish by the lake can also easily attract the attack of lake sprites in the Sky Lake…”

Su Hao also wanted to have a taste, especially the “White Silver Fish” in the Sky Lake, which made it onto the list of the most delicious ingredients in Dragon Nation.

He was craving for the fish’s body.

But there was still a long way to go. The team had to stay at the Sky Lake for a week so there was no hurry.

Seeing that Su Hao was almost done eating, the Dumb Unicorn brought out its evolutionary materials again. It had already walked dozens of rounds around the surroundings. It couldn’t wait any longer, so it got up and headed to the lakeside on the horizon.

The lake was still calm at night. There was only movement when one or two water-element sprites emerged from the lake from time to time.

Occasionally, there were also water-element sprites which sensed the ‘disgusted aura’ on the bodies of Su Hao and the Dumb Unicorn. They tried to attack stubbornly but were knocked unconscious by the Dumb Unicorn’s hoof, before sinking to the bottom of the lake.

Su Hao took out all the materials and counted them carefully. According to his exploration of the Sky Lake, he picked up a few and put down the other materials.

After a slight adjustment.

He looked at a strange-looking machine not far away. It was drawing the lake water, and a few sprites were guarding by the side.

“This machine is a machine developed by our team to purify frozen water.”

Old Mr. Qian’s student, a young man surnamed Yi, smiled very proudly when he said this.

Thinking about it, if the pure frozen water was proven to be useful, their team would be able to earn a lot of money when the machine was put into production.

Su Hao remembered his jade powder set meal plan again.

As he wasn’t short of money and was especially rich this semester, his procrastination disorder acted up (crossed out). He was too busy, and hadn’t start executing the plan yet.

Under the operation of the machine, the frozen water was purified and stored in a glass bottle with a capacity of about hundreds of milliliters.

Yi still remembered that ‘Refined Frozen Water’ was one of the rewards given by his teacher. With a slightly reluctant expression, he gave out the few glass bottles.

It took them three hours to extract those few bottles.

Su Hao took it, held it in his hand, and examined it carefully.

“Well… I see.”

“The Sky Lake is actually a special water source. After fusing with it, the diluted lake water is ‘filtered’ to reveal its essence… It has already been purified, but I think it can further be concentrated into a blue smoke form.”

Flames had special fire seeds and water streams had special water sources.

The water source flowing down from the peak of the mountains was just especially special. Not only was the quality high, there were also a lot of them. It was very different from ordinary market rules.

At the side, Yi curled his lips in the beginning. When he spoke halfway, his eyes widened. At the end, he stared at the machine for a long time without saying anything, as if he had fallen into self-doubt.

Su Hao didn’t bother about him. After adding the Refined Frozen Water, he packed all the materials and hung them around the neck of the Dumb Unicorn.

“Since the conditions are limited, there’s no way to arrange it in detail, but it’s about time. Go.”

He patted it.

The Dumb Unicorn swallowed the water-element essence and brought other materials with it. With a “Neighhh”, it ran into the lake.

Su Hao looked at its back and thought for a moment. The Dazed Crow’s figure was too eye-catching, and it was fire-element, while the Big Fat Bear couldn’t fly… He reached out and poked Butterfly.

“Gurgle?”

“Gurgle~!”

It flew up with a series of pearls of various sizes and went to protect the Dumb Unicorn.

On the calm lake, the Dumb Unicorn’s whole body had already started to emit a blue light, which was especially dazzling under the night sky.

Before the light rays on its body interweaved into light cocoons, several water-element sprites nearby were attracted by the movement of its evolution. They also felt the “disgusted aura” on Dumb Unicorn’s body so they all pounced over.

At once, water arrows and water bullets flew out, causing the water surface to surge.

But…

Bang~!

Without holding back, the Dumb Unicorn released an extraordinary aura pressure.

On the surface of the lake, circles of ripples spread out abruptly. The bottom of the invisible lake was even completely stirred up. The wild water-element sprites swimming over were so frightened that they all swam far away and towards the bottom of the lake.

Instantly, peace returned to the surroundings of the Dumb Unicorn.

At this moment, the blue lines finally interweaved into a huge light cocoon that wrapped around it before gradually sinking.

In front of the silver-white building.

“Eh, Mr. Su Hao’s sprite is evolving?”

“It’s that horse,” Old Mr. Qian said. He had some understanding of this matter.

“I see. Mr. Su Hao wants the Water Cloud Horse to evolve in the Sky Lake.” The person who spoke looked at the Flaming Spirit Crow that was still standing there quietly like a sentry not far away. He was a little puzzled. “It’s very dangerous to evolve in the wild, right? Especially in a place like the Sky Lake. It is too mysterious and there are too many water-element sprites there.”

“But it seems like there isn’t any wild sprites appearing either. Big Boss Su Hao must have his own plans.” He shook his head.

They continued to chat and chat. A few elite-level sprites were scattered around, maintaining the vigilance they should have.

Time passed second by second.

In Su Hao’s eyes, the evolution progress of the Dumb Unicorn finally went from 99% to 100%!

At this point, the surface of the lake was still calm. With a large amount of spiritual jades used, there were no visible swirls of spiritual energy in the air.

There were only some waves under the lake, but the Dumb Unicorn continued to release extraordinary pressure, until no wild sprites dared to approach it.

Finally…

Crack~!

Boom!

The huge light cocoon under the water broke. On the water surface, the water stream suddenly exploded and rushed out 20 to 30 meters high.

But that was just the beginning.

After a brief silence of two to three seconds, the water surface started to flip violently. Water pillars shot up into the sky one after another as huge waves were raised on the calm lake surface. They grew from more than ten meters tall to a height of dozens of meters. The commotion under the water surface was even greater. Countless wild sprites emerged from the water surface in panic. Fairy Snail boats and Six-Eyed Flying Fish broke through the water flow and escaped one after another.

The huge commotion also attracted the attention of everyone on the shore and in front of the small building.

“What happened?”

“Did that Water Cloud Horse evolve successfully?”

“That’s not right. How could there be such a big commotion just from evolution alone? Old Qian, what do you think?”

Among everyone, the one with the highest status and vision was undoubtedly Qian Wenshi, a high-level Sprite Cultivator. Old Qian had a place in the Dragon Nation’s Sprite Cultivation World.

However, at this moment, Qian Wenshi also didn’t quite understand. “Usually, the evolution ritual doesn’t cause much of a commotion, and there aren’t powerful wild sprites appearing either…”

He pointed at the Thunder Roaring by the lake. “Sprites are far more sensitive than us. If a powerful wild sprite appears, that Thunder Bear will definitely react, so… I eliminated all the impossible situations, and there’s only one result left.”

“That Water Cloud Horse broke through at the same time it evolved! It broke through to extraordinary level! When it broke through, its aura erupted, resulting in the big commotion right now.”

“Hiss~!”

“So, Mr. Su Hao has two extraordinary-level sprites now? Most veteran masters can’t even compare to him!”

“Yeah.” The research station commander looked at his Giant Crocodile King, which was only at the limit of elite-level, and then at the figure on the shore. He was both envious and impressed.

“His future is limitless.”

On the lake, huge waves spread out layer by layer from the center. If someone looked down from the sky, they would discover that the huge waves resembled a huge blooming flower. And right in the center of the flower…

“Neighhh! Neighhh—!”

The blue figure leaped out from the center of the huge wave, breaking through the water surface. Countless waves flew out with it, splashing into the air. When the momentum stopped and it was about to fall, everything became quiet as crystal clear water droplets floated in mid-air. Under the moonlight, it seemed to give the blue figure a layer of sparkling brilliance.

It stepped on the air and went straight up. Around it, countless water droplets and mist followed closely. They gradually gathered together and turned into clouds. With every step it took, the clouds under its feet expanded.

By the time the Dumb Unicorn stood in mid-air, light blue clouds had already gathered under its feet.

It looked as if it was standing among the clouds. It raised its head and called out, then strode over with noble and dignified steps.
