“Alright, sorry, Teacher Li, but this is evolution, I can’t control it.”
It wasn’t that Ye Ling didn’t want to control it, but evolution was something that couldn’t be controlled at all.
Once evolution started, it couldn’t be stopped midway.
Forcibly halting the evolution process could cause the energy to backfire, making the spiritual pet go berserk instantly.
At best, it could result in severe injuries; at worst, it could lead to immediate death.
Therefore, Spirit Tamers usually chose a relatively quiet place before starting an evolution.
Ye Ling, however, had been too excited and initiated Blood Phantom’s evolution right away.
He hadn’t expected it to cause such a commotion, alerting both Li Yuehai and Hong Xiu.
Fortunately, everyone on this airship was from Vermilion Bird Academy and wouldn’t harm him.
If this had happened in the wilderness, they might have encountered some ill-intentioned individuals who could launch a sudden attack.
A spiritual pet undergoing evolution had almost no combat capability.
Being attacked at such a time would be extremely dangerous.
“Alright then, since that’s the case, continue staying with your spiritual pet. If there’s nothing else, we’ll head back. Make sure to get some rest.”
Before leaving, Hong Xiu specifically reminded him.
Then, Hong Xiu and Li Yuehai left, each returning to their rooms.
After confirming they had left, Ye Ling finally closed the door.
Looking at the blood sphere floating in mid-air, Ye Ling shook his head helplessly.
He had been too excited earlier and had forgotten about this, which served as a warning and lesson for him.
Next time he needed to evolve, he must choose a quieter place.
“Hurry up and evolve, hurry up and evolve.”
Watching the blood sphere continuously churn with blood energy, Ye Ling kept muttering, feeling like time was crawling.
The first evolution hadn’t taken this long; this time, the process was far longer than the first.
After a while, it seemed that Blood Phantom’s evolution was finally reaching its end.
Layer by layer, the blood energy gradually decreased, not dissipating into the air but being absorbed by Blood Phantom inside.
Slowly, Ye Ling began to see Blood Phantom’s figure.
Moments later, the blood energy enveloping Blood Phantom completely dispersed, and Blood Phantom finally appeared before Ye Ling.
Her exclusive Rainbow Blood Garment hadn’t changed at all, and her figure was exactly the same as before.
However, when Blood Phantom opened her eyes, the difference became apparent.
Blood Phantom’s eyes were no longer white; they had turned gray.
Yes, Blood Phantom had now become a Gray-eyed Zombie, no longer at the previous stage of a White-eyed Zombie.
Her body slowly descended from mid-air, and Blood Phantom gently landed on the ground.
Turning her head, her eyes curiously observed Ye Ling.
“Mas…ter.”
Her red lips parted slightly, and an ethereal voice suddenly echoed in the room.
This made the already very happy Ye Ling even more shocked.
He hadn’t expected that Blood Phantom, upon completing her evolution, would already be able to speak.
He had indeed considered that Blood Phantom might be able to talk in the future, but he hadn’t expected it to happen so soon.
Moreover, her words were so clear, and her voice sounded very pleasant.
“Blood Phantom.”
Ye Ling called out tentatively.
Hearing the call, Blood Phantom nodded and responded.
“Yes.”
Indeed, it was all real; Blood Phantom had truly mastered the ability to speak.
Having mastered language also meant that Blood Phantom was now more intelligent than before.
Coming closer to Blood Phantom, Ye Ling gently patted her head.
Blood Phantom’s originally cold and beautiful face now showed an expression of enjoyment.
If it had been the previous Blood Phantom, she wouldn’t have been able to do this.
Evolution not only allowed Blood Phantom to speak but also enriched her emotions.
“Blood Phantom, would you like to return to the Spiritual Pet Seal?”
Since Blood Phantom could now clearly express her thoughts and emotions, Ye Ling didn’t intend to casually put her back into the Spiritual Pet Seal like before.
In the Spiritual Pet Seal, a spiritual pet could only stay in a suitable space with nothing else inside.
For a spiritual pet, it was very boring with nothing to do.
Therefore, most spiritual pets would choose to sleep in the Spiritual Pet Seal, waiting for their master’s command.
At the same time, in the internal space of the Spiritual Pet Seal, spiritual pets could quickly recover their stamina and heal their injuries.
But Blood Phantom didn’t need to recover stamina or heal injuries.
With infinite stamina and super regeneration, Blood Phantom had no issues with stamina or healing.
As for sleeping, zombies didn’t need to sleep; with infinite stamina, zombies didn’t need sleep at all.
At the mention of the Spiritual Pet Seal, Blood Phantom thought of that boring space and shook her head vigorously.
“No.”
She refused without hesitation. Compared to the Spiritual Pet Seal, Blood Phantom preferred being outside.
