  (Explosive announcement: Today at least three updates of more than 9,000 words, everyone collects and votes to support! Thank you, Green Shirt! Second update today!)

  "It's a success!" Farte exclaimed excitedly on the side, although he didn't know that Li Junshan had laid the Primordial Summoning Beast Egg without hatching, but instead summoned these useless low-level magic beasts. However, seeing him succeed, Farte was still very delighted.

  Li Junshan was also very excited, but he understood that his idea had not been completed yet, and it was too early to be happy, so he calmed down and summoned all the remaining Jumping Rabbits and Flame Chickens as his own magical beasts.

  "Fatte stared wide-eyed and stuttered, 'Just the other day, he said his spiritual power training hadn't made any progress, but now he can summon five at once!' Suddenly, he thought of how this young man had risen four ranks to become a War Master in just one month, and compared to that, this scene wasn't so shocking after all."

  After summoning the last Flame Chicken, Li Junshan felt as if his entire body's energy had been drained, and he was a bit lightheaded. With a slight movement of his mind, the five low-level summoned beasts in front of him disappeared, reappearing at the same time in his spiritual space.

  As soon as the five summoned beasts appeared in Li Junshan's spiritual space, he felt more than a dozen deformed eggs conveying their desire to hatch. Without hesitation, Li Junshan used his spiritual power to issue an order to allow the five deformed eggs to hatch. Almost instantly, the top membrane of the five deformed eggs closest to the summoned beasts opened simultaneously, and the five face-hugging insects pounced on the Jumping Rabbit and Flame Chicken, which let out terrified cries.

  "Hmm..." Li Junshan let out a long sigh.

  This was the good idea he thought of last night, letting the alien hatch in reality. He always felt that it wasn't right, after all this thing was too terrifying, and he didn't have complete confidence in himself, not even daring to try. But it was different in spiritual space. The alien's transition between spiritual space and reality depended on the summoner's thoughts. If he summoned some magic beasts into spiritual space and let the alien's parasitism and first molt take place there, then went to determine whether he could control the alien, that would be much safer.

  "What's wrong?" Fati also somewhat understood his meaning, he had too high expectations for the congenital summoning beast, and at this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little tense.

  "It's almost done." Li Junshan was also a bit nervous, at this time the face bug had completed its mission, implanting the alien embryo into the bodies of those few magical beasts, stiffly falling onto the empty ground in the spiritual space.

  "Maybe it'll take a little more time." Li Junshan muttered to himself, remembering that in the game, the alien embryo with the Iron Blood Warrior gene fused into it grew extremely fast, and it wouldn't take more than ten or so minutes for it to burst out of its host's body. But now, this environment was completely different from the game or movies, and he couldn't explain it himself either.

  At this time, the five summoned beasts in the spiritual space may have felt the arrival of doomsday, trembling and making desperate low growls, unable to move under Li Junshan's spiritual restraint.

  "Ugh......" In Li Junshan's mind, a shrill cry filled with ferocity and cruelty echoed, the first mutated creature burst out of the chest cavity of the fire chicken, finally born.

  "Zhi......" Four shrill cries rang out again, and four other deformed creatures burst forth.

  "Acquire the ability to enhance flame resistance by fusing genes of new species."

  "Acquire the ability to enhance flame resistance by fusing genes of new species."

  "Acquire flame resistance enhancement by fusing genes of new species."

  "Fusion of new species gene, gain 10% increase in bounce force."

  "Fusion of new species gene, gain 10% increase in bounce force."

  At the same time as the five deformed bodies emerged, five pieces of information floated clearly in Li Junshan's mind.

  "It's actually... possible to merge with the magical beast gene..." Li Junshan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, an immense sense of happiness enveloping his entire body, and he couldn't help but jump up and shout loudly.

  "It's developed, it's developed, haha, too powerful. Haha..."

  Fatty stared with his eyes wide open and couldn't help but ask urgently: "What's going on? Was it successful?"

  "It's a success, too damn successful!" Li Junshan hugged Fate tightly and shook him violently. With his power infused with alien genes, Fate soon felt dizzy and disoriented, repeatedly shouting for him to stop.

  "Hurry up and summon it so I can take a look." Fati shook his somewhat dizzy head and hastily said to Li Junshan.

  "We have to wait a bit longer." Li Junshan calmed down his excited mood and said, at this time the five deformed larvae opened their mouths and launched a feeding attack on their respective hosts, and for a while, blood and flesh flew everywhere, it was a terrible sight.

  Li Junshan waited patiently, Fati was also unsure of the situation and didn't dare to speak, afraid of affecting him. So he sat down and entered meditation.

  After a few minutes, or maybe another ten minutes, Li Junshan himself couldn't tell because he was too tense. Suddenly, one, two... four deformed larvae stopped eating and were covered in a layer of yellowish light. Li Junshan's heart thumped wildly as he tensely "watched" the four balls of light.

  The light grew brighter and the mass of light expanded like a balloon, swelling up rapidly. A few seconds later, the light dimmed down, and four grotesque heads appeared in the spiritual space.

  "Awesome!" Li Junshan clenched his fists excitedly.

  These deformed creatures are special deformed life forms that have combined the genes of Iron Blood Warriors, over two meters tall and about three meters long. They have a long, smooth skull with several braid-like organs hanging from the edge, and a pair of extremely small eyes that move nimbly.

  Their forelimbs are longer than those of ordinary heteromorphs, making them look more powerful. The tail bone over three meters long sways gently behind the body, with the sharp tip of the tail flashing a deadly light, which is chilling at first glance.

  The remaining deformed larva was still biting the plump corpse of Jumping Bunny, Li Junshan found it strange that while the other four had completed their molting evolution at the same time, this one remained motionless.

  At this time, he discovered that as a pale white diamond-like bead was swallowed by the deformed larva, it finally stopped, and the yellow light emerged, completing its molting evolution in an instant.

  Magic Crystal!

  Li Junshan suddenly realized that each alien larva could only become a fierce killing machine after completing its molting evolution, and during the larval stage, it could only crawl and jump, relying on its hard and sharp mandible to attack its enemies. The molting evolution cycle was much longer than the parasitic period. Li Junshan did not expect that the alien could complete its molting evolution instantly by swallowing the magic crystal, and this discovery made him even more ecstatic.

  Every magical beast has a crystal core, but the low-level crystal cores of magical beasts are not very useful and can only be used as decorations or toys. However, the mutants do not seem to reject the low-level ones, otherwise even the crystal cores of the Jumping Rabbits that ordinary people disdain to hunt would allow them to evolve instantly.

  Li Junshan felt that he was too happy, even happier than when the monitor exploded and caused his death, allowing him to cross over into this inexplicable world.

  Wait, it seems like we're getting ahead of ourselves with the excitement.

  Li Junshan suppressed his overwhelming joy and tried to communicate with those five alien creatures.

  "Fall down."

  Five deformed creatures quickly fell down in spiritual space.

  "Rise."

  Five deformed creatures stood up.

  "Line up and count off."

  Five deformed ones quickly lined up in a neat row, like a chorus, stretching their necks and making a hissing sound one after another.

  "Haha……" Li Junshan jumped up a big tree like crazy, laughing loudly with all his might, and the surrounding area was filled with his echoes.

  Fa Te was still in meditation when he suddenly felt a strong aura of evil surrounding him, and subconsciously woke up from his meditation. As soon as he lifted his head, he was stunned, only to feel the veins on his forehead throbbing violently, and he couldn't catch his breath.

  Five strange monsters stood in a row, their bodies covered with explosive muscles and soft bones, huge mouths dripping with saliva, long tails swishing back and forth unconsciously behind them, the sharp tail tips making Fate's back feel cold.

  "Is... this... your Summoned Beast?" Farte's voice was like a maiden standing in the wind without her clothes.

  "Haven't seen one before?" Li Junshan stood beside him, proudly saying: "Take a look at this sale's appearance!"

  "Terrifying." Fatt said with a quiver: "Although I've never seen this kind of demon in the Monster Compendium, I can feel that it's extremely powerful."

  "That's natural." Li Junshan beamed with joy, saying: "Let's go, I'll take you hunting." As he spoke, he snapped his fingers and two strange creatures ran over, tamely crawling onto the ground.

  Li Junshan watched as Fatou went up and warned: "Hold on tight, it runs very fast."

  Fate slowly recovered from the shock, waving his hand and saying: "It's nothing, I've ridden Stormwolf before, it can still be faster than a Stormwolf born with wind attributes."

  Li Junshan smiled and climbed onto the back of another deformed creature, firmly grasping two longer soft bones on its neck.

  "Departure."

  Li Junshan gave the order with a surge of energy, and with three swift whooshing sounds, the other three strange creatures followed his will, quickly running towards the depths of the forest.

  Seeing those three deformed ones, like black lightning tearing through the sky, Fate suddenly felt a thrill, grabbed the deformed soft-boned hand and pulled hard, only to feel his body suddenly flung backward, if he hadn't been prepared, he would have been thrown off by the deformed one's first step.

  Only to feel the strong wind blowing in his face, causing his eyes to tear up, Fate had no choice but to narrow his eyes. Not inferior to the speed of a wolf, and even more agile, Fate made a judgment in his heart, only he hadn't seen the combat power of the strange creature with his own eyes, so he couldn't tell what level of magical beast it should be.

  As they rushed along the way, those low-level monsters were frightened and fled in all directions. The forest was in a state of chaos, with birds flying and dogs jumping everywhere. Just as Li Junshan and Fate arrived, they heard a mournful cry from a monster coming from up ahead, and the battle had already ended.

  Two enormous arrow-pig hogs lay on the ground, their bodies covered with countless holes that were all dripping with blood, it was unclear whether they had been pierced by deformed tail bones or tongues.

  "Fourth-level beast arrow porcupine." Fate's eyes widened in surprise and he exclaimed: "It was settled so quickly?"

  "What a pity to waste such good skin." Li Junshan said with a tinge of regret: "Last time, Uncle Niu and Dali hunted down an arrow-haired boar together, and the pelt was kept very intact. I heard it sold for ten gold coins."

  "Find its magic crystal." Li Junshan commanded one of the mutants.

  That deformed coccyx swept across the two arrow-haired hogs' heads, and their skulls split in two instantly. Two fist-sized magic crystals rolled out.

  Li Junshan picked it up, and the demon crystal was light yellow in color, crystal clear and translucent. The crystal nucleus inside seemed to have a flowing light, which was very beautiful.

  "The fourth-grade arrowhog is a terrestrial demon beast, its magic crystal contains less magic power and isn't worth much money." Fati said as he walked over.

  "What's the use of these magic crystals?" Li Junshan didn't quite understand.

  "The magic crystals of each system are of great help to the spiritual cultivation of magicians in the corresponding system, and are also essential items for refining some magical materials. The magical power of a magician using an embedded wand with the same attribute will be enhanced, and the aura is also a reason. The price of the fourth-level arrow porcupine's magic crystal on the mainland is probably tens of gold coins, the higher the level of the magic beast, the more expensive it sells, and the sixth level is a watershed, no matter what attribute the sixth-level magic beast core is, it can be sold for hundreds of thousands of gold coins."

  "Is that useful for spiritual cultivation?" With a burst of energy, Li Junshan summoned five alien creatures and felt his mental strength depleted. There were still so many alien eggs in his spiritual space, just thinking about it made him excited.

  "It's useless." Fate shook his head and said, "Mages and summoners are different. A mage's spiritual power and magic cultivation have a great relationship with elemental affinity, and the magical core of a demon beast has the function of attracting and depositing magical elements. Its greatest value lies in this. Of course, it also has some use for demon beasts. If a demon beast of the same attribute swallows the corresponding crystal, it may evolve, but it's not absolute. Low-level ones are useless, and if the level difference is too great, the demon beast that swallowed it will explode and die from being unable to control or withstand the elemental power in the core."

  If the Xenomorph were to ingest this magic crystal, would it evolve?

  Li Junshan had this idea in his mind, he threw down a crystal core and ordered an alien to swallow it. As a result, after waiting for a while, the alien didn't seem to have any changes, nor was there any strange information prompt in his mind.

  "It seems that genes are still the key, and the effect of the Magic Crystal Core on the mutant is to prompt it to complete its molting growth evolution instantly, and it only takes effect when consumed for the first time." Li Junshan thought to himself.

  "There you go." Li Junshan tossed the remaining arrowhead hog's crystal nucleus to Fate, who had a "I've been waiting for half a day" look of joy on his face.

  "Let's keep going."

  Whoosh...

  The creature carried them running deeper into the forest.
