nAfter Chu Ze finished talking to Chu Ying, he returned to the water.

nHe communicated with the system for a while when he was at the bottom of the water just now. The system had guaranteed Chu Ze that he would be able to transform into a divine dragon after he reached level 100. Perhaps there was still a chance that he could change his form at will like other Evolver.

nThere was sufficient energy in the river, so Chu Ze decided to evolve to level 100 in the river.

nChu Ze was now above level 90, and his devour energy could no longer keep up with his consumption. After each evolution, he had to stop and wait for the energy to replenish. However, just as Chu Ze was evolving, the Liquid Monster extended its tentacles into the river.

nThe Liquid Monster, which was originally unable to absorb the spiritual power in the river, could now absorb it after it evolved a few times. Its leveling speed was now even faster than Chu Ze’s.

nMoreover, white fur had grown on the Liquid Monster’s body. If Chu Ze saw it, he would definitely be able to recognize immediately that the white fur was the mycelium.

nIt seemed that the Liquid Monster did not reject anything at all. No matter what it was, it would fuse into its body.

nIt also fused the substances in the river that were not good for the human body directly into its body.

nThese substances were harmful to others but were good for the Liquid Monster. It directly collected these substances and when the time came, it could be used as a means of attack.

nJust as Chu Ze was leveling up to level 99, the system sent a notification to Chu Ze.

nAttention, Host. It will take three days for level 99 to reach level 100. Please be prepared.

nAs it was said that the last level up would take three days, Chu Ze decided to go up first to check on the situation. He would come back later for the last level up if there was anything.

nBut when Chu Ze reached the river surface, he was dumbfounded.

nThe entire riverbed had turned gray, and Chu Ying and Li Manman were nowhere could be seen.

nChu Ze carefully observed the riverbed and found it occupied by a kind of gray mycelium.

n“System, help me check what this gray mycelium is.”

nAfter Chu Ze had evolved so many times, the system had also upgraded several times. The functions of the system had now increased a lot compared with the past.

nAfter scanning, the system said, “These mycelia are from the Pioneer branch. However, these mycelia seem to have been infected by something. Moreover, they are controlled.”

nChu Ze looked across the river and saw the huge shield. He said in surprise, “Isn’t it Liquid Monster? Why is it here?”

n“Hmm, but it doesn’t matter. The instructor and the others should be able to deal with the Liquid Monster. They don’t need me.”

nAt this moment, the system’s reminder came again. (Please don’t take it lightly, Host. The level of this Liquid Monster now is not lower than yours. And its combat power is even higher than yours. Please speed up the evolution.)

nChu Ze was now at level 99, and his combat power was already higher than Baili Chengfeng’s. If the level of this Liquid Monster was higher than Chu Ze’s, then it would definitely be higher than Baili Chengfeng’s.

nAfter listening to the system’s words, Chu Ze directly dived into the river and began evolving.

nAccording to the system, level 100 was a limit. Not everyone could reach level 100. However, Chu Ze did not have such a bottleneck with the system’s support. He only needed to evolve.

nChu Ze decided to level up to level 100 first, and then defeat this Liquid Monster.

nNot long after Chu Ze began to evolve, the Liquid Monster started to move. At this time, the Liquid Monster had already reached level 100.

nThe bottleneck that the system mentioned did not happen to the Liquid Monster. The Liquid Monster rushed directly to level 100.

nWhen Madman arrived, he also recognized that it was the Liquid Monster. And based on Baili Chengfeng’s investigation, the Liquid Monster was in the process of evolving.

nThe instructor and the others had tried to attack the Liquid Monster to interrupt its evolution. However, they were unable to break the Liquid Monster’s shield with their strength.

nNow that the Liquid Monster had completed its evolution, it was its turn to attack.

nJust as the Liquid Monster appeared, it put tremendous pressure on all the Pioneers.

nChu Ying and Li Manman joined hands to release a skill. However, it was directly swallowed by the Liquid Monster. It did not have any effect at all.

nIf it weren’t for Baili Chengfeng’s speed, Chu Ying and Li Manman would have been swallowed by the Liquid Monster.

nThe Liquid Monster’s movement speed wasn’t very fast, but its attack speed was. And its movement was stealthy.

nThe Pioneers were defeated by the Liquid Monster directly.

nOn the third day, the Pioneers had retreated into the town. If it weren’t for Guang Yu and his men fighting together with the Pioneers, the Pioneers would have failed to hold on.

nWhen Chu Ze rushed to the battlefield, the Pioneers were on the verge of collapse.

n“What’s the matter with you guys? How did you get beaten up so badly?” When the instructor saw Chu Ze, he immediately let out a sigh of relief. “You came so late. I thought I couldn’t see you anymore. Hurry up and help.”

nChu Ze directly rushed up to fight the Liquid Monster.

nWhen the Liquid Monster saw Chu Ze, its heart trembled. It felt a special kind of pressure from Chu Ze.

nThe Liquid Monster then began to retreat. Chu Ze directly chased after it.

nHowever, Chu Ze didn’t notice that a lot of mycelia were left on the ground when the Liquid Monster retreated.

nChu Ze stepped on the mycelium when chasing after the Liquid Monster. When the mycelium went through Chu Ze’s legs, it entered Chu Ze’s body.

nAfter chasing for a while, Chu Ze found himself getting weaker. The Liquid Monster then turned around and smiled at Chu Ze.

n“It’s my turn now. I’ve almost devoured the energy in your body.”

nThen, the Liquid Monster suddenly turned into an overwhelming liquid and rushed toward Chu Ze.

nSeeing the situation, Chu Ze knew that he couldn’t fight head-on. If he was covered by the liquid, it would be horrendous!

nIn the blink of an eye, Chu Ze transformed into the Suanni form. In this form, Chu Ze’s speed was the fastest.

nHe rushed towards the river, planning to use the river water to replenish his energy.

nThis time, Chu Ze went a little askew. He didn’t return to where he was. Instead, he rushed to the bridge that Baili Chengfeng discovered.

nThat bridge was over a thousand meters high now. Chu Ze didn’t notice it before, but now he did.

nIn fact, it was the system that had deliberately led Chu Ze towards the bridge.

n(Hurry up and run towards the Dragon Gate. As long as you jump over the Dragon Gate, you’ll be able to defeat the Liquid Monster.

nAfter rushing into the river, Chu Ze looked at the tall Dragon Gate in front of him and didn’t know what to do.

nThe system promptly reminded Chu Ze: Change into your original form, that is the goldfish, and then jump over. I’ll help you. Chu Ze, who had changed into the goldfish form, retreated a distance and then jumped with all his might. However, he had been devoured by the Liquid Monster and could not exert any strength at all. He only managed to jump half of the distance to the Dragon Gate.

nJust as Chu Ze thought that he was going to fall, a surge of energy suddenly surged out of his body.

nAt this moment, the system’s laughter rang out.

nThe energy that I had hidden previously has finally come in handy.)

nThe system used up all the hidden energy. This time, Chu Ze smoothly rushed up to the Dragon Gate.

nChu Ze, who was originally a little goldfish, directly transformed into a divine dragon after crossing the Dragon Gate.

nThis wasn’t a transformation that was within Chu Ze’s control. Moreover, after transforming into a divine dragon, Chu Ze realized that he seemed not able to return to his previous form.

nHowever, a transformation option appeared in the skill list. Chu Ze’s consciousness gently touched the transformation option.

nAt this moment, he was still a little nervous. But in the next moment, he had transformed into a human form.

nChu Ying and Li Manman, who saw Chu Ze transform back into a human form from afar, burst into tears instantly.

nChu Ze, who had transformed back into a human form, slowly floated down from the sky and landed in front of the Liquid Monster.

nThe Liquid Monster had wanted to escape, but he found his body could not move at all.

nA golden light shot out from Chu Ze’s eyes. The Liquid Monster melted into a real liquid and then blended into the soil.

nThe melted Liquid Monster turned into fertilizer nourishing the soil.

nSmall yellow flowers bloomed in the area eroded by the mycelium, emitting a faint fragrance. Chu Ze floated to Chu Ying and Li Manman’s side and said softly, “I’m back.”

nFrom then on, Chu Ze led all the people of China to the path of cultivation.
