My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 288 Graduation Early
Zhou Lu didn't stay in the Veterans Home for too long.

After resting for a while, he took Hua Huo to the ancient city of the fairyland again.

Although the fifth stage evolution has been carried out before the Fireworks Realm is perfected, it is still necessary to accumulate as much growth as possible before the evolution.

At this time, the residual souls of immortals wandering in the ancient city of the fairyland seem extremely delicious.

Hanabi didn't have much desire for these things.

It actually prefers to stay in Zhou Lu's room as a happy potted plant.

Before leaving, Zhou Lu found the Tao-seeking Tree again.

Hanabi recorded the combat experience she gained at the Truth-Seeking Tree into new leaves and inserted them into her body.

The replaced old leaf fell into Zhou Lu's hands. After that, when he controlled the Fireworks branch to fight, he could read the combat experience to assist in the battle.

Zhou Lu also tried it a little bit. The combat experience of this plug-in is more like an automatic plug-in. It can automatically activate some skills mastered by the host according to the current situation when the host does not respond effectively.

Of course, this automatic triggering requires a lot of data support.

When it comes to iterative learning, Huohua is far from reaching its limit.

In the battle illusion simulated by the Qiudao Wood, it can already deal with all fourth-level quasi-god enemies and a small number of auxiliary beasts relatively easily.

As the battle continued, the branches of Fireworks began to try to speed through the enemy, and also tried to use the existing attributes to fight against the powerful battle beasts.

It’s a pity that the huge gap in strength between quasi-gods and divine beasts cannot be made up by combat experience.

But Huohua can now use a combination of skills to fight with these powerful beasts for a certain period of time.

And you don't need to worry about Hanabi having problems facing the Sage.

In the illusion of the Tao-Seeking Wood, immortals also occupy a large proportion. Moreover, the illusions of these immortals are all based on the immortals that the Tao-Seeking Wood has faced, which makes the desire of these immortal illusions to attack even stronger.

While he was talking, Zhou Lu had already finished testing the new plug-in with Huo Huo.

It has to be said that this second-generation experience plug-in has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The current Fireworks' combat power is basically on par with some mythical beasts with low attributes.

Moreover, those fully automatic attribute capturing branches continued to provide more attributes to Fireworks during this period of time.

Although the attribute bonus provided by each absorption is not high, the huge amount and frequency still allow the attributes of the fireworks to increase at a rate of 0.5% per day.

Even Qiudaomu had not expected the power of [Absorption].

“Sure enough, even if they have the same power, the effect they exert is completely different due to the different times they are in.” Qiu Dao Mu couldn’t help but sigh.

"If the Dream Rain Flower Fairy had such an efficient means of absorbing fireworks, it would have been invincible in the world long ago."

This is also the reason why many wild beasts can never go back after cooperating with the beastmasters.

Human knowledge and civilization are sustainable and inheritable.

This means that their perspective on things will continue to change with the development of the times.

This kind of change is often not possessed by other spiritual beasts.

Generally, spiritual beasts rely only on their own instincts to move, and even after tens of thousands of years, they still have the same conventional thinking patterns and fighting methods.

And once these spiritual beasts become the spiritual pets of the beastmaster, they can often burst out with combat power far beyond their previous strength.

There are many similar cases that Qiu Daomu knows. Individuals who were originally excluded in the tribe because of their weakness, but were abandoned by their own tribe and unexpectedly became the pets of the beastmaster.

And they are often able to become more powerful and evolve very accurately under the training of beastmasters. When they return to their own tribe again, they are often the most powerful ones in that tribe.

The spirit beast version of "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west" often happened in the past.

Of course, it no longer exists in modern times.

Because the beastmaster also began to select the quality of the spirit pet.

Closer to home.

In fact, if Meng Yu Hua Xian had not met Lu Shan, she would not have had the conditions to become such a terrifying existence.

Zhou Lu's in-depth development of absorption was something that Lu Shan, who had been on the front line against the immortals, had never imagined.

From this point of view, Huo Huo has actually completely surpassed Meng Yu Hua Xian in the concept of its own development.

What it really lacks is time.

And even with this, it is catching up with the thousands of years of accumulation of Mengyuhuaxian at a very fast speed.

"This guy's future is so terrifying." Even without using his own abilities, Qiu Dou Mu could already see Hanabi's terrifying future.

When Hanabi heard Qiudumuki's comment, she retorted very unhappily, "Hanabi is not scary!"

Hearing Hanabi's rebuttal, Qiu Daomu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yes, yes, Hanabi is the cutest."

After hearing what Qiu Dao Mu said, Hanabi went to socialize with great satisfaction.

Well, in Xiao Caocao's opinion, the older sisters in this Invalids Home are all super powerful and have high status. It will definitely be helpful to their master to please them.

It never thought that its current strength was actually very close to the minimum strength here.

What Huahuo calls socializing is probably giving gifts.

Unlike the past when only flowers were given as gifts, today’s fireworks are often used to weave various handicrafts with special functions using vines and flowers.

Thanks to the various human knowledge it learned under Xiao Xi's urging, Huahu's vine works are often ingeniously conceived and even have certain strange effects.

After confirming that Hua Huo would not do anything strange, Qiu Dao Mu turned to Zhou Lu and said, "If possible, let's completely clean up the ancient city of the fairyland this time."

"A thorough cleanup?"

"Well, these residual souls of immortals are one of the main sources of immortal inheritance. Only by cutting off these sources of continuous output can the subsequent control of immortal inheritance be effective." Qiu Daomu said.

In fact, this should have been done a long time ago.

It was just that Qiudaomu at that time still had a glimmer of hope for the technological development of mankind.

It fantasizes that one day humans will be able to overcome the defects of immortals through genetic technology, making this skill a purely positive skill, thereby leading to the extension of human lifespan.

In this way, the spirit pet can stay with its beloved owner for a longer time.

However, with the sequencing paper submitted by Ouyang Xiao, Qiu Daomu's last fantasy was gone.

The immortal's power and his flaws coexist, and even the most basic genetic editing cannot change that.

In this case, there is no need for the existence of immortal inheritance.

"It's a pity that Xiao'e's power is limited." Qiu Daomu sighed and said, "Otherwise, we can delete everyone's memory of the immortal through dreams."

For what Qiu Dao Mu wants to do, the divine beast is still too weak.

"Don't you have a way to block the fate of humans evolving into immortals, just like you blocked the evolution of Meng Yuhua?" Zhou Lu suddenly asked curiously.

"I can't do it." Qiu Daomu shook his head and said, "This kind of shielding is related to the overall strength of the race. The reason why Meng Yuhua can shield is that most of their population are the weakest grass, and the pressure of shielding fate is not great."

Zhou Lu said "oh" and had a clear understanding of the power of the Tao-seeking Wood in his heart.

It seems that in this world, there are many things that even the divine beasts cannot do.

Seeing that Zhou Lu did not continue to dwell on this issue, the Qiudao Wood smiled and said nothing more. In fact, it still had some things to tell Zhou Lu.

For example, the power to control one's destiny is also related to the strength of one's own attributes.

If Fireworks evolved into a true god and gained its own racial skills, it might be able to do this with its powerful attributes.

But it's too early for Huahu.

Its most important hurdle at the moment is to evolve into a true god.

Hanabi returned quickly after delivering the gifts.

Apparently, this little guy is still very popular in the circle of mythical beasts.

The mythical beasts received gifts from Xiaocao Cao and gave gifts in return. Although many of them were just courtesy gifts and did not have much practical use, they were still of great significance.

If these souvenirs were put on the market for sale, Zhou Lu estimated that his assets could be multiplied several times.

Of course, the friendship of the mythical beast behind this is much more valuable than these gifts.

Besides, Zhou Lu is not short of money at all now.

After patting Hanabi's hat, Zhou Lu said goodbye to Qiu Dao Mu.

No one knew where Ye Qingyu and Ouyang Xiao went.

Zhou Lu thought about it and finally decided not to disturb the two people's fun.

Using the power of the Truth-Seeking Tree, Zhou Lu and Hua Huo were teleported to the New Guangdong Beast Academy almost instantly.

After exchanging a few brief greetings with the general education fairy of Xinyue College, Zhou Lu turned and headed towards the temporary hut where he was living.

On the way, he unexpectedly met the dean of the college.

Zhou Lu thought for a long time but couldn't remember the other person's name.

However, the other party obviously recognized Zhou Lu and started to greet him as soon as he came up.

Today, Zhou Lu is already a popular star in the human world, with a greater fame and popularity than the champion of the Beast Taming Competition.

The championship of the Beast Taming Competition might be fake, but Zhou Lu’s results are all real.

The dean happened to be looking for Zhou Lu.

Based on Zhou Lu's good performance, the authorities seem to be willing to approve Zhou Lu to graduate early.

Zhou Lu was not surprised by this.

If they didn't come to see him, he would have already planned to apply for early graduation.

With Hanabi's current strength, it would be meaningless for her to continue wasting time in the academy.

And here, the president of Xinyue College actually played a little trick.

Zhou Lu is an exchange student, and his enrollment is at Xin'an Beast Taming College.

Even if he applied for early graduation, he should have applied at Xin'an Beast Taming College, and it would not be his turn as the dean of Xinyue to preside over it.

The person who reacted most strongly to this incident was, of course, Wu Sicheng, the president of Xin'an College.

I spent a lot of effort to send the best talents from my college to you for exchange and learning, and you just want to take advantage of me? No way!

When Zhou Lu and Dean Xin Yue came to the cabin while walking and chatting, they saw Wu Sicheng standing at the door of the cabin.

Next to him was Wu Xiaoqing, who looked excited.

"You're back, Zhou Lu." Wu Xiaoqing's brows were filled with joy, and there was a hint of excitement when she spoke.

"Dean." Zhou Lu still had enough respect for Wu Sicheng.

If it weren't for his support, his father would not have persisted.

Although this research eventually led to his father's accidental death, it was not Wu Sicheng's fault.

When he saw Wu Sicheng, President Xin Yue knew that his plan to poach him had failed, so he said goodbye to Wu Sicheng in a very friendly and polite manner.

Only then did Wu Sicheng show a good face.

While the two deans were talking, Zhou Lu walked up to Wu Xiaoqing and asked curiously, "Did you win the lottery? Why are you so happy?"

"It's even better than winning the lottery." Wu Xiaoqing said with a smile, "President Wu approved 20 million yuan of funding for me, and it's 20 million yuan every year!"

For Wu Xiaoqing, who has always been short of funds, this is definitely a windfall.

Zhou Lu was also sincerely happy for his senior.

It can be said that there is no limit to the demand for funding for my research.

Thinking of this, Zhou Lu told Wu Xiaoqing about Ouyang Xiao.

"Ah... Is this guy doing this kind of thing to himself again?" Wu Xiaoqing was not surprised by this.

Wow, is this what it means to be sympathetic to one’s own kind?
Zhou Lu then remembered that the woman in front of him was also the kind of person who would grow mushrooms on himself if she had a disagreement.

No, she doesn't just grow mushrooms on her body.

Zhou Lu had the mushrooms grown by Wu Xiaoqing on his body - although they all seemed to be useful.

One is to identify mushrooms, which allows Zhou Lu to better distinguish between friend and foe and prevent the enemy from disguising himself as his relatives or friends to launch a sneak attack on him.

The other one is the death-killing mushroom, which can save your life when you are attacked fatally.

"Senior, you have already achieved this level. There should be no need for you to continue researching that bacteria, right?" Zhou Lu thought of the bacterial sample of Wu Xiaoqing.

This guy is terrifying just thinking about it.

Wu Xiaoqing shook her head: "We still need to study it. It's rare to have such a good sample."

Her only headache was that the bacteria were difficult to cultivate because they always liked to eat themselves cleanly.

As he was speaking, Wu Sicheng had already sent the other person away and walked back to Zhou Lu.

"Okay, you can go back to your room and pack up, and come back to the college with me tomorrow." Wu Sicheng said to Zhou Lu and Wu Xiaoqing.

He was really afraid that someone would snatch away his precious child Zhou Lu since he was outside.

It would be better to take Zhou Lu back quickly and apply for early graduation.

In this way, Zhou Lu’s name can be written in the column of outstanding graduates of the college.

Although Wu Sicheng is indifferent to fame and fortune, he still wants to fight for the reputation of the college so that the people below can be better managed.

"Are you in such a hurry?" Zhou Lu was stunned. He had originally planned to set off for the ancient city of the fairyland today.

"what happened?"

Zhou Lu told his plan.

Wu Sicheng immediately said, "That's perfect. Recently, the government has organized a group of scholars to go to the ancient city of the fairyland. You can go in under this name. I'll arrange it for you."

Zhou Lu then remembered that it seemed that one could not enter the ancient city of the fairyland casually, and one must have a legitimate reason.
