“Not bad! Quite good!”
After observing the skills of the three little ones, Wen Yu couldn’t hide the smile on his face.
The newly awakened skills of the three spirit pets all had their uses, and the main skills awakened by Xing and Victor were impressive. This reward for promotion was enough to compare with a stroll through a super treasure land!
It took a bit more time for Wen Yu to change the skills of the three spirit pets. Once finished, he noticed that the demonic energy was still surging from the Demon Realm Gate outside, and the sixth-level demonic clan couldn't exit the Demon Realm Gate in the short term.
Wen Yu went to the side of the Exchange Stone Pillar and exchanged a handful of magic crystals.
It was better to quickly replenish the 3000 points of physical quality limit brought by the recent promotion. Of course, he inevitably checked the best promotion combinations using the Leghart Magic Mirror.
There was no need to elaborate on the specific combinations; in any case, with a massive supply of points, the promotion plan provided by the Leghart Magic Mirror posed no difficulty for Wen Yu.
……
Outside the New Hope Gathering Place, demonic creatures continued to flock to the area, only to be drained into dry corpses by the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine and the dark barrier.
Wen Yu couldn’t understand why these demonic creatures were so eager to engage in such “resource-forging” behavior.
Under Wen Yu's protection, everything in the gathering place was orderly. When the sixth-level level restraint was broken, the professionals and mutated creatures remaining in the gathering place promoted as they should, and those challenging the promotion trial did so.
Led by the wilderness butcher, several divine beast species completed their promotions as soon as the level restraint was broken—generally, divine beast species would complete their promotions immediately; even if they couldn’t, they would undergo transformations after a good meal—now there was no shortage of demonic corpses to consume in the New Hope Gathering Place.
However, the size of these mutated beasts did not change much. Including Duan Yan, Xing, and Victor, the mutated beasts did not show any trend of growth after reaching level six—perhaps for normal mutated beasts, a size of over ten meters was already sufficient to handle various scenarios. If they grew larger, they would inevitably become less agile and struggle against smaller opponents.
The promotion of mutated beasts was akin to a transformation of their essence; unless absolutely necessary, everything had to revolve around survival and combat. A height of over ten meters might have already reached some limits for regular mutated beasts.
With the breaking of the sixth-level level restraint, a massive number of professionals and mutated beasts in the gathering place promoted, and for a time, the joy of promotion diluted the clouds of gloom surrounding every professional and mutated beast.
Looking at the New Hope Gathering Place, which was subtly regaining some vitality, and then glancing at the demonic creatures outside the dark barrier, Wen Yu squinted his eyes and swept his gaze towards the interior of the gathering place again.
Right now, Wen Yu only hoped that the “strongest mutated life” could awaken soon. In reality, under the assault of the last wave of the demonic clan, Wen Yu felt somewhat exhausted. After all, his combat power was quite limited. With the support of the sixth-level demonic clan warriors, Wen Yu didn’t know if he could still defend the New Hope Gathering Place.
For Wen Yu, the current situation in the New Hope Gathering Place was not just a simple offense and defense but a race against time!
……
However, time was not on Wen Yu's side.
Inside the underground caves of the New Hope Gathering Place, the river water was freely flooding until it submerged more than half of the underground space, stopping only when the water level rose to the same height as the underground dark river.
