Chapter 498: Chapter 56: Sights and Sounds of the Main Territory, Part 3

The spotted leopard swallowed the fruit in one bite, then lay on the ground and activated its Cultivation Technique, focusing all its power on digesting it.

In less than five minutes, the leopard’s body began to emit a glow. Within the light, its body gradually grew larger. After doubling in size, it began to shrink again.

"ROAR—AWOO~"

As its body changed, the spotted leopard let out a series of low growls.

Seeing the transformation, Yuan Xiaobo clapped. "Impressive. This leopard has some serious potential! To digest it in such a short time."

He then landed the Hovercar, jumped out, and walked over to the leopard’s side.

Then, a powerful aura erupted from his body, intimidating the surrounding animals so much that they dared not make the slightest move.

When the surrounding defeated animals first saw the leopard begin to evolve, their eyes flashed with envy. Greed showed in the eyes of a few, and they stirred, ready to make a move. But a wave of Yuan Xiaobo’s aura washed over them, and they immediately cowered, not daring to budge.

"What’s happening to it? Did it advance a tier?" Li Hua followed Yuan Xiaobo to the leopard’s side. Sensing its steadily climbing aura, he asked Yuan Xiaobo.

"Yes, it’s at least an advancement. If it’s lucky, it might even become a Hero."

"Just from that Spirit Fruit?" Li Hua was astonished.

’If Lin Yu’s domain has such a heaven-defying Spirit Fruit, why make his people fight to the death just to get one?’

’Is he a dictator with a twisted sense of humor?’

’I never noticed that about him before!!’

"Of course not!" Yuan Xiaobo laughed when he heard Li Hua. "If we had fruits that powerful, the domain would be teeming with Heroes by now."

"That was an All-Attribute +10 Spirit Fruit it just ate. If a creature is already on the verge of evolution, its body will spontaneously focus all its energy on digesting the fruit to supplement its power and attributes. It can quickly absorb all the fruit’s energy and then evolve."

"So, the fact this leopard started evolving right after eating the Spirit Fruit means its own potential is excellent. More importantly, it was already cultivating diligently. This Spirit Fruit was just a catalyst—the final piece of the puzzle for its evolution."

Yuan Xiaobo explained the role the All-Attribute Spirit Fruit played in the leopard’s evolution.

"That’s still amazing!"

Just then, the leopard’s transformation stopped. The two of them quit talking, and Yuan Xiaobo stepped forward and asked, "What is your name?"

To Li Hua’s amazement, the leopard opened its mouth and spoke. "In answer to your question, my lord, my name is Ban Zhufeng."

"A good name. Are you from the Wind Leopard tribe?"

"Yes, my lord!"

"So you’ve become a Hero? Did you advance a tier?"

"In answer, my lord, I have indeed become a Hero. I have also advanced. I am now at the Legendary Tier."

"Excellent. Very impressive. It seems you have a shot at becoming your tribe’s first Legendary Hero."

"I happen to be returning to the domain, so I can drop you off at your tribe’s settlement on the way!"

"Thank you, my lord!"

The leopard jumped into the back of the Hovercar, lay down on the seat, and began circulating its Cultivation Technique to recover its depleted energy.

Afterward, Yuan Xiaobo and Li Hua also got back in the Hovercar and continued on their journey.

"He’s on the path to becoming a Legend just like that?"

"Of course. He still has to face his Celestial Tribulation. Once he passes the tribulation and becomes a true spirit, he will naturally be considered a Legend."

"Enough about him. Let me continue the tour. Do you see that cluster of buildings in the distance?"

"That’s the domain’s university city..."
