Ocean Master

Chapter 191 - The Mysteries Of Evolution [1].



Sebastian shamelessly and directly hit at this point.

His plan to cooperate with the old toad to escape was incomplete without this additional benefit. After thinking long and hard about it, he decided to ask the old toad instead of waiting to meet the Elder Dangle later.

All his original plans were already scattered, perhaps, he would never even meet the shark elder again so why not go with the next best option?

Also, it was because he learned a lot of things from his failure.

At that moment of desperation, under the pursuit of 4 purple tier predators, he bit the bullet and commenced his evolution. Unfortunately for him, he failed woefully but it was not without benefits. He got the experience.

Experience was something intangible, but it had inestimable value.

From his previous experience, Sebastian was sure that the breakthrough to the purple realm was not as straightforward as he originally saw it. He discovered that it involved or needed something more.

The only problem was that he didn\'t know what this thing was, that was why he decided to ask the old toad for help to get over this obstacle.

If he could secretly evolve to become a purple-tier predator without alerting the Atlantians, he was sure that his future escape was full proof.

This confidence was derived from his observations and planning.

From the 4 guards\' mouths, he knew that the leader of this fleet who rarely visited this chamber was a pinnacle Bronze Realm mage. When he knew this, he was ecstatic but that was all.

The Sergeant may be as powerful as just an orange tier predator alone, but unlike predators, he was geared from head to toe.

His magic weapon alone, the Trident Berserker could increase his strength two-fold. Adding his other gadgets like magic boots for speed, magic scales for defense, magic shield, and a lot of other things, his power was much more than estimated on just seeing his realm.

This was the advantage of Atlantians. Though monsters could also plunder and even create their own magic weapons, their use, effects, and ingenuity were far below that of Atlantians.

Atlantis was a civilization that excelled in technology and magic.

From the little that Sebastian already saw and heard, comparing Earth as a whole to Atlantis in terms of development was like comparing his dilapidated village to the capital city of the United States.

And from these same guards\' mouths, he heard of the power of the variant humans. They were also powerful in their own rights. 

Thinking of all these powerful future opponents left Sebastian\'s heart in his throat, but he ignored all that and quickly focused on the present. Right now, escaping from this military base was the top priority.

Sebastian looked at the old toad, the old toad looked at him. Silently, they engaged in a staring contest for a few minutes before the old toad snorted.

"Kid, do you know the value of what you just asked?"

Hearing this, Sebastian smiled inwardly. Compared to the previous tone which the old toad addressed him with, it was now countless times milder, this old toad was open to compromise.

Of course, the guards were spooked by the toad\'s words but they continued with their activities. "This toad is really going insane".

Of course, what else could Sebastian think of than to try convincing the old toad? For 15 minutes, he convinced the old toad with flowery words paired with begging but the old toad remained stubborn.

According to the toad, its knowledge of breaking through to the purple tier was too valuable to be shared without a corresponding price.

For 30 minutes, Sebastian kept on trying to convince the toad without success. Then left with no choice, he finally decided to batter his only valuable treasure at the moment, Octumpedam\'s magic weapon, the Octranezion.

It was painful but he had no choice. He didn\'t have an immediate use for this magic weapon, so he was fine with exchanging it for tangible benefits.

As soon as the old toad heard this, his originally stubborn eyes glittered for a moment before forcibly dimming the next. 

"Connect me to your sound domain".

Sebastian complied without a word of complaint. He could use his sound control skill to directly speak inside another predator\'s head, he learned this after following the principles from his only lecture with Elder Dangle.

He could speak inside another predator\'s head, and he could also use the same skill to make the old toad speak inside his head. It was a simple set-up.

"Humph! Kid, I\'ll accept it but this is all because of the situation".

"Now, listen carefully. This information that you\'re about to get is priceless, I dare claim that even the head of your clan may not know as much as I do".

This was shameless boasting, but Sebastian did not refute it. After interacting with this toad for so long, he already understood him a lot. 

The toad was unimaginably old, so he may be right, and this was the reason why he approached him sincerely for advice in the first place.

"Breaking through to the purple tier is not just an evolution, it is like a crystallization of your being which would determine your strength at the next tier and your potential for life".

"The most important factor that influences evolution is the bloodline".

"The second most important factor is your physical core or qi".

"The third important factor is your magic core or qi". 

"While the fourth most important factor is the ever-present Origin Essence Magic".

"Oceania is a magic world, our world is powered by magic, which is the Origin Essence Magic. This power birthed us, nurtured us, and empowered us".

"To break through to the purple tier, you need to properly harness this power hidden in the Origin".

"The perfect fusion of all these 4 important factors is what makes the purple tier. It is the most significant tier of a predator\'s life, it brings the first great increase in strength, and its bar of success is extremely high".

"Only 1% of predators in a region succeeds in crossing this boundary".

"The proper way to harness these 4 factors is what I am going to impart to you. First, I will explain the bloodline".

"Your bloodline is not the blood that runs through you, it is something more profound that lives inside of you. It lives in your heart and also does not live there; it is something that you can only understand yourself".

"From progenitor to offspring, this bloodline is transmitted. It is what Atlantians call muta-gene, it is what we predators call the seed of life".

"It determines everything from the day you set your eyes open to face this world. It determines your talent, your future prospects, everything, and most especially the amount of physical and magic qi that you can accumulate".

"This is why it is the most important factor for the purple breakthrough".

"Cases like me and old Mantis are rare, fortuitous encounters play a major part in it. This is the beauty of nature, providing a way for those with the so-called low ranked bloodlines to defy fate and break the paradigm".

"The second and third important factors are closely tied together, listen closely".
