Chapter 310: Sorting Out the Harvest! Puzzle Evolution! The Rancher! The Little Spider's Law (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Although the process of fleecing was somewhat dangerous and almost caused a global catastrophe, fortunately, the phantom of the Mother River destroyed the tentacles of the Mark of the Moon of Fertility, and the Chaos Egg swallowed a large number of fragments of the Mark of the Evil God, making a perfect exit.
Lu Yu was initially worried that it would suffer from indigestion or be affected by the evil god's power, but with the help of the mother river, it quietly completed its evolution.
The power of an evil god?
It was just a gentle breeze!
As expected of a seed of law born from a forbidden position.
As hard as one's own character!
Lu Yu secretly admired him, then looked at the spiritual puzzle deep within his consciousness.
The sky over the ranch has always been divided between dusk and stars, but at this moment, a moon has appeared in the center of the stars.
Surrounded by stars!
After the stars and the moon merged, their power expanded to its limit, continuously spreading across the night sky in an attempt to suppress the setting sun at dusk.
However, the setting sun did not sit idly by; instead, it burst forth with brilliance, forcibly activating...
Rotate!
As dusk falls, the stars and moon disappear, and the setting sun illuminates the pasture, bathing it in gold, where all things come to life.
When the stars shine brightest, the waning moon will bring the night and peace.
The rotation of the sun and moon brings about the flow of time.
The ranch had expanded to three times its original size, comparable to a medium-sized city, with a large amount of barren open space, but it was less like soil and more like…
Chaotic-colored clouds!
It is like a legendary pure land, sacred and magnificent, yet it also has the concept of ending everything and returning to the original "nothingness".
The pond where the sleeping giant toad was located was expanded several times over, with a large amount of mycelium spreading and combining to form black lotus leaves that supported it.
"...Coo...quack..."
However, it didn't care about this and just lazily ate the hay, while the bumps on its body kept secreting secretions, much faster than before.
As for the black goat, it still looked the same as before, but because its hair had been plucked off, it was left with only a layer of newly grown down, making it bald and looking rather pitiful.
As for why...
That was the Sun Chaser, a beast of the ranch. It had transformed along with the ranch, its body now swelled to thirteen meters long and seven meters tall. The number of light blades on its body had increased by half, slowly swaying and constantly burning, making it look increasingly majestic and domineering.
And a large amount of mane grew on its neck, shining with a golden luster, making it look like a small sun on its head from a distance.
High emotional intelligence: The sun.
Low emotional intelligence: The third wheel.
"Woof woof woof!"
Zhu Ri was very happy about this. It had just been a little worried because the ranch had a day-night cycle. What if the beast needed to rest when there was night?
Chasing the day is not like a dog that drains the pond to catch all the fish; it follows the laws of ranching so that livestock can grow better.
But if you don't work, how can you create value for your owner?
Now it's convenient; wherever it stands, it's always daytime, and it doesn't count as overtime, which can urge them to keep striving.
Most importantly, it also follows a pattern!
The Chaos Egg remained in the center of the pasture, unchanged, except that it had expanded to nine meters in size and a crack had appeared on it. This crack was a wound left by the Mark of the Moon of Reproduction, causing it to continuously spew out chaotic energy that washed over the earth.
Each movement repairs the wounds, albeit at an extremely slow pace.
The Ash Forge, composed of countless ashes, remains located at the boundary between day and night, but apart from being twice as large as before, it has not changed at all.
"Looks like I still need to absorb the corresponding calamity ash, but what exactly is that ash? At least give me a hint!" Lu Yu thought to himself, glancing at the paper tree. This thing had indeed changed.
However, this doesn't refer to its appearance, but rather to how it quickly moved to a new open space to take root, spreading a large number of roots in the chaotic cloud of colors, causing itself to grow several meters taller, and then continuing to repeat the self-production and self-consumption process of shedding leaves and absorbing nutrients.
They just won't ship the goods!
But since this guy doesn't eat ranch resources and is ostracized, he's quite pitiful, so Lu Yu didn't bother with him.
What concerned Lu Yu the most was that the fence at the edge of the ranch, which had been burning with silver flames, had disappeared, leaving only an endless, desolate void.
"Won't the livestock run away?"
Just when Lu Yu thought the ranch had lost its protection, silver cracks appeared in the void at the edge, from which countless huge, lifeless silver eyes emerged.
Densely packed, covering the entire edge of the ranch, it resembled a wall of eyes, eerie yet carrying a hint of holiness.
It made the entire ranch seem to come alive.
"Meow—"
The moment the black goats saw them, their furless bodies trembled uncontrollably, and they could only lower their heads and nibble on the grass to hide their fear.
These eyes silently watch over all life that dares to escape or approach the pasture.
Lu Yu understood the meaning of the ranch.
It doesn't need a fence.
Because the world is also a pasture!
Lu Yu was amazed, then noticed that the information in the spiritual puzzle piece [The Shepherd] began to change, eventually becoming...
Rancher!
As we all know, spiritual puzzles can evolve.
For example, as mentioned before, Helian Tu in the Border Genius Battle possesses a volcano puzzle piece that can continuously increase the number of volcanoes in the puzzle piece by improving the pet's spirituality and contracting new volcano-type pets.
From a single volcano, it evolved into a volcanic cluster, and finally into a volcanic world.
Once it erupts, it will transform into a powerful volcanic force that empowers the pet, explosively increasing the fire attribute's power.
The strongest member of their family can alter the ecosystem with a single blow, creating a unique volcanic zone that incinerates everything.
This is why the spiritual puzzle, possessing infinite possibilities, is called the power of miracles by beast tamers.
After successfully herding three divine beasts, Lu Yu's spiritual puzzle piece transformed him from a herdsman into the owner of the ranch, and he gained four brand-new abilities.
The first benefit is that the ranch has accelerated the growth rate of the divine livestock by one-fifth.
For example, the production time of toad oil used to be 25 days, but now it only takes 20 days or even less.
The process of obtaining black goat fur takes at least three to four months, but with the aid of special soul pasture, it can be shortened to less than three months, thus accelerating the plundering of divine authority.
Definitely an Anti-God Noble Phantasm!
However, the trade-off is that the livestock's appetite increases, leading to greater consumption on the ranch.
"Fortunately, the Church of Harvesting and Propagating the Moon replenished a large area of pasture, otherwise the God of Poverty would have visited us again." Lu Yu felt fortunate.
When you're broke, you still have to rely on the selfless dedication of the evil god cult.
The second ability is to further enhance the ranch, and it can now forcibly delineate a portion of the real world and descend upon a corner of the ranch.
It's essentially a special area!
In this region, enemies who cannot pass the mental test will be corrupted by the power of the ranch and turned into livestock.
However, if they are not divine beings such as the sleeping giant toad or the black goat, they will soon collapse due to their sanity, and their flesh and soul will turn into nutrients to irrigate the land and nourish the rest of the pasture.
It's also possible that they were eaten by the abominations of the gods.
Moreover, the sun is no longer a phantom, but can actually descend into this area.
Unleash the dogs – an upgraded version!
Don't be fooled by how cute and adorable he seems; he can suppress even the most powerful monsters, and his strength has reached a terrifying level thanks to the ranch's multiple transformations.
Or rather, it was a divine offspring conceived by the rancher Lu Yu, and was his retinue.
In theory, as long as Lu Yu has enough spiritual energy, and this domain is not shattered or expelled, and the ranch is not destroyed, Zhu Ri will be an immortal being.
The first two abilities only enhance combat power and do not constitute a qualitative change, so the remaining two abilities can only be described as terrifying.
The third ability is the law!
However, it was neither that Lu Yu's fallacious laws were reinforced, nor that true laws were born.
It seems that because the authority of truth is connected to the forbidden position, in order to bring it into being, more divine abominations need to be nurtured in order to support the formation of a part of it.
If even the flawed law of fallacies is already terrifyingly strong, it's hard to imagine how terrifying the law of truth is.
The ranch's third ability is to give pets the opportunity to give birth to Law Seeds.
Lu Yu was stunned when he saw this ability.
It should be understood that the Seed of Law is a miracle born from the spiritual puzzle bestowed upon human beast tamers by the Mother River.
Aside from humans, only a few other beings blessed by the Mother River or other aliens have a chance of being born, with a probability of one in a trillion, or even less.
Even among the vast number of beast tamers in the entire alliance, the geniuses capable of nurturing the seeds of law are few and far between.
Lu Yu had only ever met one Tong Ye!
The rest are basically top-tier prodigies, monsters who dominate an era!
The power of law, even if it is not the law of the king, is too overpowered by human laws alone. It can alter the world, distort matter, and make challenging those of higher levels as easy as eating and drinking.
"However, even with the opportunity, creating laws is no simple matter..."
Lu Yu glanced at the requirements for helping a pet beast cultivate a seed of law. The first requirement was to possess at least two extraordinary skills and to use divine fragments from a great being to transform a special seed of law.
Only through nurturing and incubating the target can one give birth to one's own Law of Man.
The conditions are very demanding, but the advantage is that once conceived, it will be a perfect fit.
Among Lu Yu's many pet beasts, only the Little Spider, the King of Scrolls, fits the bill; the Paper Knight and Egg are far from it.
As for the rat... let's not even mention it!
If Spider-Man were to actually create laws, he would be heading further and further down the path of becoming a demon god.
"But the problem is... where do we get divinity?"
Thinking of this, Lu Yu felt a chill run down his spine. The Mark of the Moon of Procreation had indeed dropped quite a few divine fragments, but they had all been eaten by the Chaos Egg.
Getting it to vomit is a bit difficult.
Lu Yu could only put it aside for the time being, and then looked at the fourth ability.
It can drain the power of the ranch and all life within it, allowing it to remain dormant for a period of time, thus entering a form known as the "Rancher".
After learning the specific information and capabilities, Lu Yu's eyes lit up with delight.
The seasoned sixth man has acquired another trump card.
Besides that, there are the requirements for the next stage of the ranch's advancement...
Seven divine fiends need to be herded!
Once completed, the ranch will enter its full phase, and the laws conceived within the Chaos Egg will manifest.
"That ranch is really good at seducing people!" Lu Yu muttered, but he wasn't too worried.
As his strength increases, herding is no longer as difficult as before. Once he advances to the Eternal Sun or even higher levels, he can learn to fish like his predecessors.
Moreover, there is a site related to the forbidden sun waiting for him to excavate.
There might be some unexpected gains.
"Next, let's see what the shepherds reap!"
Lu Yu looked at the Chaos Egg, or rather, the ball of light that had been released after the successful grazing.
Five of them... huh??
Lu Yu's gaze froze. He clearly remembered that after the successful grazing, there were only four orbs of light. How come there was one more?
"Could it be...?"
Lu Yu looked delighted and then began to check the information.
Two of them are, naturally, two legendary traits.
【Eye of the Moon Howl (Six-Star Initial Tier): It is a giant eye born from the legendary qualities of the Moon of Procreation, created by the Great Mother during the silent moon by using a large number of breeding ecosystems and sacrifices. Its appearance is that of a giant eye growing from countless moon pupils.
Only an ancient giant with the corresponding attributes can contain it; otherwise, it will trigger unknown mutations.
It can transform the eyes, or grow in the abdomen. It can spread the power of the Moon Roar through roars, shattering all things and turning them into moonlight, which is then absorbed into the roar for further propagation. When tempered to the extreme, it can shatter top-tier stars and worlds with a single roar, turning them into moonlight that is then devoured by itself. It can also summon the ancient moon through its roars, and under the moonlight, it will be greatly enhanced.
A life being gazed upon by the Eye of the Moon's Roar will be corrupted if it cannot pass the mental judgment, involuntarily emitting a Moon's Roar and forcibly twisted into a enslaved beast.
It can be used to make evolution food for Moon-type and Sound-type Pokémon, or it can be made into a skill food, which grants the legendary skill "Moon Howl's Eye" upon consumption.
"As expected of a legendary trait, its abilities are incredibly bizarre. If it were truly accepted by the Great Mother, there would be no chance of victory this time," Lu Yu remarked, then looked at the second legendary trait.
【Breeding Moon Legs (Six-Star Beginner): A legendary trait obtained after breeding the Great Mother to worship the evil god. Its appearance is three legs intertwined with gene chains. It requires an ancient giant of the corresponding attribute to accommodate it, otherwise it will cause unknown mutations.
After fusion, one's legs will transform into a legendary feature—the Lunar Feet of Reproduction, displaying legendary qualities and containing the power of the Law of Reproduction. Any life kicked by it will have its reason overwhelmed by an intense desire for reproduction, and will be forcibly transformed into a Palace of the Moon, rapidly breeding moon beasts and unleashing a massive demonic tide.
If one has sufficient strength, one can transform a small world into a Moon Palace, using all living beings in the world as sacrifices to breed powerful Moon Beasts for one's own use. Furthermore, targets that are hit by the law will forcibly reproduce Moon Beast offspring if they cannot resist the law, thus splitting their own origin and entering a weakened state.
It can be used to create evolution food for Moon-type and Breeding-type pets. Different attributes will trigger unknown changes when consumed. It can also be used as skill food, which will grant the legendary skill "Breeding Moon Feet" upon consumption.
"These are real jade feet, whoever they kick will get pregnant..." Lu Yu stroked his chin, feeling that the reproductive ability was indeed disgusting.
If there's no time to stop these fragments of law, forcibly impregnating the other party and allowing them to bear offspring is equivalent to a forced weakness skill targeting the same level.
If they weren't limited to breeding only twisted moon beasts, they could certainly allow some powerful pets with low fertility to produce offspring.
Why bother striving? Wouldn't it be better to just open a specialized pet clinic and make a fortune?
Lu Yu, a renowned traditional Chinese medicine doctor, specializes in treating infertility!
Unfortunately, breeding Moon Beast offspring will only make them think that Old Lu next door is incompetent, and medical disputes can easily occur if they are not careful.
Therefore, Lu Yu regretfully dismissed the idea.
The third orb of light appeared, and as Lu Yu expected, it was a new divine beast.
"This thing is... a cow?" Lu Yu looked it up and down, his tone somewhat uncertain.
What appeared before him was a bovine creature with muscles like gnarled old tree roots, its body black and red, with five legs and three intertwined bovine tails.
Its head is somewhat similar to that of the Moon Howl Demon, with its head growing backward in the shape of a crescent moon, but it has no eyes, only a moon beast mouthpart and a pair of crescent-shaped, black and red bull horns.
However, on its forehead is a face exactly like the Great Mother's, and on its abdomen is the mark of the Moon Palace.
The relevant information was quickly presented to Lu Yu through his Eyes of Truth.
【Bull of the Moon: A special superior evil god's familiar born from the fusion of the Great Mother of Procreation and the Great Demon of the Moon, and infused with the power of the Moon God of Procreation. It is a bull born from the dark side of the moon.
Possessing a tyrannical nature capable of crushing everything, and with a unique Moon Palace structure within its body, its true form was suppressed after being successfully herded on the Lord of the Gate's ranch, transforming it into one of the divine beasts.
bull?
Does it possess the Moon Palace?
And the characteristics of a large number of cows...
Lu Yu fell into deep thought. He knew that the divine abominations would suppress their true form, after all, the followers of the superior evil gods were symbols of chaos and evil.
However, when faced with a ranch of a higher nature, they can only be slaughtered.
Lu Yu was mainly puzzled as to whether the divine abomination produced by this Moon Bull would be milk or beef.
Or something else strange and unusual?
Just then, the large female face embedded in the bull's head awoke and muttered to herself:
"Wasn't I dead...? How come I still retain consciousness? Could it be that I've arrived in my Lord's divine realm?"
Is being consumed by the Moon of Procreation the right path to eternity?
She opened her eyes with excitement, only to find herself surrounded by a pasture.
A gigantic chaotic egg resides at the center, constantly spewing out chaotic energy that washes over the moonlit soul pastures, causing them to sway incessantly.
Susu!
A small house formed from endless ashes, a paper tree that endlessly repeats the cycle of falling leaves, the sun, moon and stars rotating in the sky, a strange goat with a snake's tail, a giant toad half-asleep on a lotus leaf, and so on...
Everything filled her with a strange fear, as if she had entered a mysterious forbidden zone.
"Where is this?"
The Great Mother of Procreation looked terrified and was unable to control her body. Soon after, a roar was heard:
"Moo—"
Only then did she realize that all she had left was her face, which was embedded in the head of a cow.
The mighty Mother of the Church, the eternal giant who successfully took the first step across the Gate of Eternity, has been reduced to a lowly beast!
Even though she could sense the soul aura of this bull, which was the child she longed for—the Moon Howl Demon—she still couldn't accept it.
"Moo!"
The Great Demon Moon Howl was also extremely angry. It swung its tail behind it, trying to peel off the Great Mother from its forehead, but it failed.
This mother and son, who hated each other, have completely merged together and are no longer distinguishable from one another.
"Why...why did this happen..."
Just as the First Mother was on the verge of collapse, she felt a familiar gaze upon her.
That was the gaze of the guy she would never forget, the gaze she hated with all her might. The space before her gradually distorted, taking on form, and finally became...
"Lu Yu!"
The Great Mother stared in disbelief at the projection of Lu Yu that appeared before her.
Lu Yu stared at her indifferently, his gaze mirroring the one he had when his mother treated ordinary people like livestock…
It's exactly the same!
Now, it's her turn to be dominated!
"Moo—"
The Moon Bull, the incarnation of the Great Demon Moon Howl, roared angrily upon seeing its enemy, raising its legs and pawing the ground repeatedly. Just as it was about to charge, a giant beast claw descended from the sky and slammed it into the ground.
"roar!"
As the sun rose, it coldly looked at the newcomer, casually slapping it to easily crush the moonlight it had gathered, suppressing it once more.
Pasture beasts possess an incredibly high resistance to life that has grazed on pastures.
It can easily suppress life in the ranch.
Then, the Sun gave the Bull of the Moon a sound beating.
Disrespecting ranchers is a serious crime!
"Meow~"
Seeing this, the black goat grinned smugly. Finally, there was someone more unlucky than it, and maybe it could bully the other one.
Happiness is something you discover through comparison!
"Woof woof woof!"
Only after beating its opponent to the brink of death did Zhu Ri stop. The light blades and tendrils on its body danced, wrapping around a cow's leg. Ignoring its struggles, it dragged the cow along the ground, leading it deep into the Soul Ranch. There, it began to force-feed the pasture grass, hoping it would soon conceive a divine offspring.
Eat up!
"Waaaaah..."
The breeding dam was also fed enthusiastically every day, and it chewed the hay blankly, but it no longer had the thought of resisting. Its brain had been filled with a large amount of information and had become a mess.
She discovered that this place was a convergence of many different divine energies, and that after evolving into an ecosystem, they not only did not conflict with each other, but were instead contained within each other.
Even the divine kingdom of the Moon of Procreation cannot achieve peaceful coexistence between the powers of different great beings, can it?
Furthermore, since both he and the Great Demon Moon Howl were transformed into livestock, could that mean...?
The other two animals are likely those in positions of power, just like her.
Treating those in power like cattle and sheep... devouring the power of different deities... a bizarre pasture... Lu Yu, born from humble beginnings, has risen so quickly...
The numerous clues, when pieced together, led to a terrifying suspicion in the mind of the breeding matriarch.
Could this eerie and desolate pasture be the former kingdom of some ancient deity?
And Lu Yu is His divine son, even...
Carrier!
They are returning from the ancient times, gradually regaining their glory and ascending to their divine throne!
"I'm facing... a truly great being!?"
Thinking of this, the Great Mother of Reproduction was utterly desperate, as if she could see an infinitely dark future!
Lu Yu ignored the despair of the breeding queen. Although his identity had been revealed, he didn't care at all.
Once successfully grazed, the animal is bound to the ranch, and unless it dies, none of its secrets can be revealed.
They will only become resources for me to become stronger.
Lu Yu then looked at the fourth item, which turned out to be a moonlit bagpipe.
【Moon Pipes: A treasure obtained by the Lord of the Gate after grazing the moon's divinity in the Ranch Puzzle. By blowing it and offering enough moon-attribute materials, you can summon a moon monster from the far side of the moon. Its strength depends on the level of the offering. It will be at your disposal for ten minutes. After that time, it will go out of control, and the user will also be corrupted by the moon's spirit.
You will be able to find the lost rhythm of the ancient Moon Chapter of the Moon Pipes, and by drinking the brewed Golden Laurel Wine, you will summon an ancient messenger to lead you into the dark side of the ancient moon.
That place may be fraught with danger, but it may also hold endless opportunities.
"Should we use a ritual to summon the moon demon?"
Lu Yu's eyes lit up when he saw the effect of this ability, and he thought of how to use it.
As for the ability of the Moon Pipes to guide one into the dark side of the moon, Lu Yu had no interest in it.
joke!
He wouldn't even go to the friendly Kingdom of the Hidden Bones God, [Night Village], so how could he possibly go to the far side of the moon, which is on par with the sun and suspected of being polluted?
Moreover, what are the Moon Chapter and Golden Laurel Wine?
Who knows which world they've been lost in!
So Lu Yu put it away and looked at the fifth item.
When its radiance faded, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"As expected..."
"The blank seed of divine transformation!"
