Hearing this news, everyone was overjoyed; it was actually a Mutated Crystal Base! With more than ten iron lumps here, doesn’t that mean there were more than ten Mutated Crystal Base pets?
All eyes turned to the remaining iron lumps, and Lin Shen and Xu Tiange were no exception.
Mutated Crystal Bases, with special attributes to boot—such pets were truly rare and their value incalculable.
The next step was to discuss how to allocate these iron lumps. With a total of fourteen iron lumps, the Sword Alliance, Xu Family, and Lin Shen had to share them.
If they were to distribute them equally, the Sword Alliance would indeed be at a disadvantage: they had more people and were stronger.
The Xu Family’s own strength wasn’t great, and they had come with the Sword Alliance; if they were to take a third, even if Zuo Qinglong agreed, other members of the Sword Alliance would object.

After discussion between Zuo Qinglong, Lin Shen, and Xu Tiange, it was ultimately decided: the Sword Alliance would take eight, Lin Shen four, and the Xu Family two.
Xu Tiange was very satisfied with this result.
He knew well that if it hadn’t been for Lin Shen, who had previously knocked down the fruit and saved everyone, allowing him to benefit by association, the Sword Alliance would likely have not given him even one.
Lin Shen, having taken four, also felt it was acceptable; based on headcount, he wouldn’t have gotten as many.
He hadn’t brought down these items himself, after all; contentment breeds happiness.
“You guys pick first. Whatever’s left will be for us,” Zuo Qinglong said magnanimously.
“There’s nothing much to choose from anyway, they’re all the same,” Xu Tiange said, unceremoniously directing his men to carry two iron lumps back.
Not wanting to waste time, Lin Shen, accompanied by Tu Xiaodao, stepped forward, originally planning to simply take any four iron lumps.
Little did he know that just as he approached the iron lumps, Fei Zai jumped out from his backpack, fluttered its wings, and landed on one of the lumps. It pecked a few times but left no mark.
Moved by this, Lin Shen took Fei Zai back and had Tu Xiaodao carry that iron lump, then randomly picked three more.
After Lin Shen and Xu Tiange made their choices, Zuo Qinglong allowed his men to carry away the remaining lumps.
All parties were waiting for their iron lumps to hatch, with no mood to concern themselves with other matters.

“Brother Tu, two for each of you,” Lin Shen said to Tu Xiaodao.
“The Sword Alliance gave us four out of consideration for you. I’m only worth one, and taking just one is more than enough,” Tu Xiaodao replied.
“That works,” Lin Shen agreed, letting Tu Xiaodao take one.
Over time, occasionally a Mutated Frost Warrior would emerge from an iron lump, and each party domesticated theirs in turn.
By the time the three-day countdown ended, most of the Frost Warriors had emerged, with just a few still showing no signs of movement.
Of Lin Shen’s three, two had come out; only the one Fei Zai had landed on was yet to show any movement.
Lin Shen had no choice but to teleport back to Jinshui Lake with it and then transport it to the Dark Bird Base.
The Frost Knight from Tu Xiaodao’s lump had hatched and was encapsulated into a capsule.
“Brother Lin, I won’t be returning to the base with you,” Tu Xiaodao unexpectedly chose to leave.
“Sure,” Lin Shen nodded, somewhat regretful to lose such a good bodyguard.
“Meeting you has been my greatest gain this time, and it has made me realize that there are always greater powers out there. My strength is still far from enough. I’ve been recklessly wandering around for years and have come through unscathed by sheer luck. This time, I will definitely train harder and not venture out until I far surpass others in strength.”
Tu Xiaodao paused, then continued, “If there comes a day when you go overseas, feel free to seek me out at the Immortal Island Base. I will certainly treat you well.”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“If you’re saying your strength isn’t enough, then there can’t be many people who dare say they are strong,” Lin Shen pondered, unable to understand Tu Xiaodao’s mindset.
“Lin, there’s no need to comfort me anymore; I know my strength is limited. After I return, I’ll immediately begin isolated cultivation. When I have made some achievements and can stand shoulder to shoulder with the heroes of this world, I’ll come to visit you again,” said Tu Xiaodao before turning around and leaving.
Lin Shen watched him go, pondering to himself, “Does he have some misunderstanding about the phrase ‘limited strength’?”
After saying goodbye to Xu Tiange, Lin Shen returned to Dark Bird Base alone, with the iron lump in tow. Luckily, he had many pets, and he let the Black Crystal Stoneman carry the iron lump, which spared him the effort.
While they were still on their way, cracks began to appear on the iron lump, and Lin Shen hurriedly asked the Black Crystal Stoneman to put it down.
Lin Shen watched as the iron lump continued to split open, feeling a bit of anticipation in his heart: “I wonder if this iron lump is any different from the others? Is Fei Zai simply interested in the iron lump, or is there something unique about it that caught his attention?”
Under Lin Shen’s expectant gaze, the iron lump finally split completely open to reveal the Base Variant Creature inside.
“It does seem a bit different.” Lin Shen saw that the Base Variant Creature inside was still a Frost Warrior, but this one held a double-handed greatsword made of ice crystals.
“This fellow actually has a weapon!” Lin Shen had seen many Frost Warriors, but this was the first time he saw one armed with a weapon.
Lin Shen quickly instructed the stoneman to block the Frost Warrior from eating the iron lump fragments.
With a greatsword in each hand, the Frost Warrior directly struck at the Black Crystal Stoneman.
The Black Crystal Stoneman met the attack with its thick, pillar-like black crystal arms. With a clang, the greatsword left a deep mark on the arm of the Black Crystal Stoneman.

One must know that the hardness of the Black Crystal Stoneman was 40 points. The Frost Warrior, just born and still in a weak state, was able to leave a deep mark on its arm with one strike—it was utterly terrifying in strength.
What was even more terrifying was that frost began to emanate from the sword mark, freezing the Base Mutation Fluid inside the arm, causing that limb of the Black Crystal Stoneman to stiffen.
Seeing this, Lin Shen immediately summoned the White Jade Tiger and three Mutated Black Armored Centipedes to attack the Frost Warrior together.
This Frost Warrior was clearly much stronger than the average Frost Warrior, its greatsword sweeping through defenses with ice forming wherever the blade passed—a truly domineering presence.
The cold aura was obviously stronger than that of the average Frost Warrior, capable of instantly freezing Base Mutation Fluid. The strength and speed of this creature were also top-notch.
Lin Shen, realizing he was struggling to contain it, allowed the Mutated Black Armored Centipede to bite the Frost Warrior, hoping to utilize the painful toxin of the centipede to stop the Frost Warrior’s resistance.
However, the moment the centipede bit down, its mouthparts were immediately frozen, while the Frost Warrior that was bitten seemed to have no major issues.
Lin Shen understood at a glance that the centipede’s toxin hadn’t managed to penetrate, as it had been frozen.
Fortunately, the Frost Warrior had just hatched and was still in a weakened state, otherwise Lin Shen wasn’t sure if his five mutated pets could have restrained it.
Of course, this was because Lin Shen wanted to tame it, not kill it. If he had intended to kill the Frost Warrior, it definitely wouldn’t have been able to withstand the onslaught of five mutated pets.
Lin Shen had no choice but to change his strategy, instructing his five mutated pets to constantly harass the Frost Warrior to prevent it from consuming the iron lump fragments.
After a strenuous five or six hours, the Frost Warrior finally ran out of strength. Desperate for a bite to eat, it surrendered its Pet Key.

Delighted in his heart, Lin Shen allowed it to eat the fragments, and it immediately transformed into a capsule. He then checked its attributes.
