Su Lin's Evolution Potion had never stopped over these days, and even though he had already devoured more than a half of a River of Spirituality Essence, he was still gaining over three thousand Evolution Essence each time under the tripling effect.
In his estimation, the ten remaining Rivers of Spirituality Essence in the Origin Space would provide enough Evolution Points for him to advance three more levels at least.
Only after advancing those three levels would the required Evolution Points for Su Lin skyrocket to an even more astonishingly vast amount.
By then, even he himself wouldn't know where to find such vast Pure Energy!
The combat strength brought about by Genetic Metamorphosis and Evolution was far beyond what any other Mutated Creatures could compare.
However, the resources consumed were indeed massive!
The Pure Energy Su Lin now needed to break through one level could almost elevate an ordinary Exotic Beast straight to the Apocalyptic Level!
So, it could be said that his combat strength, capable of overcoming dozens of levels to face opponents, was exchanged for a massive amount of resources.
But at the same time, it also meant that the limit of Su Lin's growth would be stronger than that of ordinary Mutated Creatures!
If Su Lin ever reached his limit level, it would be hard to imagine how terrifying his combat strength might become.
It might even reach the extent that truly causes this world to shudder in fear!
With such thoughts, Su Lin sped up the process of devouring the River of Spirituality Essence.
Time passed in a flash, and soon the remaining half of the River of Spirituality Essence was exhausted.
During the expenditure, Su Lin's accumulated Evolution Points increased, and the two evolved Light Shadow Clones became more and more substantial.
After several more hours and splitting another one-fifth of the River of Spirituality Essence,
The capacity of the two Light Shadow Clones to store the River of Spirituality Essence reached their limits, and Su Lin's devouring of the River of Spirituality Essence also reached a certain limit.
The Pure Energy produced by the transformation of the Devouring Power in the Wolf's limbs and bones was quickly replenishing the energy he had spent during this time.
After stabilizing his breath, Su Lin just had to will it and the two Light Shadow Clones left the mountain peak like beams of light.
In their departure, the Fluorescence emanating from the clones also began to retract, reducing their energy consumption.
And the clones transformed, sprouting fur, gradually becoming hard to distinguish from real ones.
The stronger clone appeared almost like Su Lin's shadow, virtually indistinguishable from him.
This clone was hidden in a Dark Fortress known only to Su Lin and Sander; this fortress had also been implanted with dozens of Mutated Plants that thrive in dark and damp conditions.
With the Pure Energy and Mysterious Force derived from these Mutated Plants, it was sufficient to sustain the energy foundation of this strongest clone, allowing it to maintain peak combat strength at all times!
This clone was also Su Lin's final trump card to defend the Southern Territory Mountains!
It would not be used until a true defeat was imminent.
Because this clone contained three percent of his Essence of Life, if it truly suffered damage or was directly devoured by someone, it was imaginable how great Su Lin's loss would be.
At that time, even a River of Spirituality Essence might not be enough to recover that three percent of the Essence of Life.
Because the more perfect it is, the harder it is to recover.
Besides,
The other clone, which had transformed into an Arctic Silver Fox, quickly changed its appearance to be exactly like the Arctic Silver Fox, hiding beside Red-tailed.
Neither Sander, who was in charge of guarding the Southern Territory Mountains, the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, the Black Rat, nor Red-tailed, who was about to set off,
was informed by Su Lin of the existence of his clones.
Because he deeply understood the principle that secrets ensure success, whereas gossip leads to failure.
If others became aware of his trump card, then it would become just a strong card laid out in the open,
```
No longer was he the hidden trump card that could decide the fate of the world upon his exit!
Additionally, not informing Sander and Red-tailed allowed him to witness their true performance when faced with crisis and adversity!
After both clones disappeared from sight, Su Lin withdrew his attention.
With a flicker, he descended from the summit of the Southern Territory Mountains for the first time in over two months.
Upon returning to the main Wolf Pack Cave, the first to discover him was none other than the Half-Step Apocalyptic Level Black Demon Mink!
At this moment, the Black Demon Mink, under the roasting of the Spiritual Imprints, not only maintained its arrogance, but it swelled even more, and the ferocity in those pitch-black eyes became even more captivating!
If it weren't for the restrictions of the Spiritual Imprints, this Black Demon Mink, whose injuries had barely recovered to two or three-tenths, would have probably dashed out of the Wolf Pack Cave already.
Even after Su Lin arrived, the ferocity in the Black Demon Mink's eyes didn't diminish in the slightest!
It struggled to stand, facing the Invincible Wolf King that brought it to despair and made its Spiritual Soul Force tremble, having almost no desire to resist.
Yet the pride that emanated from its very bones still supported it, refusing to submit!
It had been over three months since that bloodbath in the Gobi Desert!
During this time, the Black Demon Mink had felt the Wolf King's desire to subdue it; after all, why else would it keep it alive for so long if not to subdue it?
But that inherent pride, the ambition that once sought to engulf the lives, souls, and blood of millions of species to ascend to Apocalyptic Level, prevented it from bowing its head!
And now, the Wolf King had personally come!
The Black Demon Mink didn't know how much longer it could sustain its pride.
Yet, in the midst of its inner turmoil, it never imagined that this Wolf King, over a hundred meters long and akin to a prehistoric behemoth, had no intention of persuasion!
Boom!
The Wolf King arrived like a phantom, and then a Wolf Claw, many times thicker than its body, seemed to descend from the sky, crashing its barely propped-up body back onto the ground!
This was followed by a Spiritual Soul Force so vast it was unimaginable, directly invading its Sea of Consciousness!
The overbearing Soul Connection Talent was instantly activated!
"Since you don't wish to submit, then don't force yourself!"
At this moment, Su Lin's light blue Wolf Eyes were full of coldness!
He didn't even deign to glance at the Black Demon Mink!
He had already given the time-manipulating Black Demon Mink more than three months of opportunities.
But since it refused, Su Lin couldn't be blamed.
Right now, under the suppression of Su Lin's powerful Spiritual Soul Force, the Soul Connection Talent was proceeding very smoothly!
Dense Spiritual Soul Threads infiltrated and eroded the Black Demon Mink's mind, intertwining and controlling all of its Spiritual Soul Force.
And as the Soul Threads bound it,
Su Lin, with a thought, took another look at the Black Demon Mink's Strength Attributes.
He found that its strength was indeed worthy of its pride!
A Peak Level 57, several levels higher than the Grassland Wolf King.
Moreover, being a Spiritual Type Beast with numerous Spiritual Type Talents and the Time Secret Technique.
With such strength, it's no wonder the rumors said the Black Demon Mink could contend with Apocalyptic Level!
Had it been allowed to consume the souls of millions of species and Exotic Beasts in the Gobi Desert, this Black Demon Mink would have indeed been qualified to stand at the pinnacle of Exotic Beasts after several level advancements.
However, in this world, there is no such thing as if-only!
This being, once considered the strongest Exotic Beast ruler in the Central Region besides the Theological Alliance,
Is now gradually turning into yet another puppet in the midst of Su Lin's formidable Soul Connection Talent under his massive Wolf Claw!
