Fey Evolution Merchant - Chapter 2360
2360 Dark Stream From the Back!
But even if the Azure Federation had more spirit qi professionals who had contracted ice-type feys, they were unable to continue.
This was not because they could not handle the workload. If all they needed to do was maintain the ice wall, the millions of spirit qi professionals who had contracted ice-type feys could have maintained the ice wall in batches on a roster.
In front of such a crisis that needed to be faced by an entire federation, individual factions would decide to back away in the face of such insurmountable obstacles.
However, the Azure Federation’s success and failure depended on these ice-type feys.
While the ice wall was freezing, it was also simultaneously melting.
While the freezing and melting were happening, the inside of the ice wall would continuously be transferred to the nearby seawater.
Most of the ice-type feys that the experts from the Azure Federation had contracted were submerged in the water, resulting in many of them being poisoned.

When the ice-type feys were poisoned, they would start to vomit and bloat, their bodies would turn viscous, and their skin would start to decay. After an accumulation of all these effects, all the seawater on one side of the ice wall looked like the scene of a plague.
As a result, the seawater outside of the ice wall was even fouler than inside of the ice wall.
However, there was no time for the Azure Federation to clean the seawater.
As more dimensional lifeforms emerged from the water world dimensional rift, their overall power was raised.
If anyone sent to clean the contaminated seawater broke the ice wall, all the work that the Azure Federation had put into setting up their defense would go to waste!
Currently, the melted ice could only reach a radius of 30 kilometers around the ice wall. If the ice wall was damaged, it would coincidentally match up with the time when the currents were the fiercest.
The venom would end up spreading to the Azure Federation very quickly.
At that time, many of the residents would be left with no way of obtaining water for daily use.
If the Azure Federation suffered one such blow, the 12 aristocratic families would lose all their current authority.
As a result, the spirit qi professionals who had contracted ice-type feys dared not help despite knowing that the seawater endangered their feys’ roots.
After a prolonged period of deterring the water world dimensional lifeforms, another problem cropped up: there was now a vicious cycle happening in the seawater outside the ice wall.
There were already spirit qi professionals who were losing their ice-type feys due to the vicious cycle.
Now that their contracted feys had died, their spiritual energy had been damaged, and they were as good as crippled.
This was an even worse situation than Liu Jie had been in! In Liu Jie’s case, at least the Insect Queen had been alive. As despondent as Liu Jie had been, he still had a thread of hope to hold onto.
Many spirit qi professionals were unable to retrieve the corpses of their feys. As a result, their feys became part of the contamination and ended up harming their teammate feys, spreading the web of despair across the sea.
Although there were many people, what they brought each other was not comfort but pity.
It seemed as though this disaster would never come to a close.
For the past few months, the spirit qi professionals who were guarding the sea could confirm that the number of water world dimensional lifeforms that had died in the sea had crossed the billions.
However, this number was just the tip of the iceberg.
The water world dimensional lifeforms had not been stopped from entering the main world.
As Lin Yuan looked at this hellish scene, he could be certain that a big shift had occurred in the water world. Otherwise, given the intelligence of the water world dimensional lifeforms, there was no reason for them not to remain in the water world but to surge out and rush to their deaths instead.
With such a situation, Lin Yuan felt that the biggest possibility was that a powerful lifeform in the water world had discovered the pathway that was the Class 6 water world dimensional rift and had become very interested in the main world. Thus, it was sending water world dimensional lifeforms to scout out the main world.
There had to be more than just one Apostle involved in order to send so many seemingly fearless dimensional lifeforms rushing out of the dimensional rift in such an orderly fashion. There was no way that an Apostle had such capabilities!
If it was compared to the marsh world, it had to be a Turning Wheel Realm Dictator, at the very least, who could cause such a stir!
Turning Wheel Realm Dictators were very intelligent.
Those who could become Turning Wheel Realm Dictators in the dimensional world were all opportunists who placed their own profits before everything else. If they did not act in such a way, it would be difficult for them to become Apostles, much less Dictators.
Although Dictators acted cautiously, such caution would eventually be replaced by curiosity.
If any Samsara Realm Dictator found out about this and made a trip to the main world before returning, the Azure Federation would end up in a worse situation than the Freedom Federation.
After all, Lin Yuan was there to keep the Samsara Realm Dictators from the marsh world in check.
But no one in the water world could restrain the Samsara Realm Dictators.
Luckily, the Azure Federation had sought help from the Radiance Federation. If they had chosen to hold out on their own, it would be difficult to fix the situation once the powerful Dictators and Apostles from the water world entered the main world in droves!
After all, even if they could not win, they could hide! There were plenty of places to hide in the main world’s seas. If a Samsara Realm Dictator chose to hide in the deep sea, there was no way they would be found unless they coincidentally bumped into each other during the search!
However, there was something that Lin Yuan was curious about. If the Azure Federation had so many experts, why were they not doing anything about it?
The Moon Empress seemed to see through Lin Yuan’s suspicion and explained, “The experts from the Azure Federation, whether it’s those from the aristocratic families or those from the Class 3 and 4 families, have all awakened their beast patterns. It’s difficult for the spirit qi professionals who have not awakened their beast patterns to make a living. So Little Yuan, do you understand what I’m trying to say?”
Lin Yuan nodded in faint understanding.
The Moon Empress went on to elaborate, “Almost none of the spirit qi professionals maintaining the ice wall have awakened their beast patterns. This is because the experts who have awakened their beast patterns are better used to individual combat rather than acting in teams.
“Spirit qi professionals who have awakened their beast patterns will unconsciously release their aura, which cannot be retracted, unlike that of feys. This uncontrollable aura will have a great effect on the low-grade feys. Thus, the experts who have awakened their beast patterns can’t participate in addressing this disaster without careful consideration.”
