Train Survival: I Can Evolve Everything!

Wilderness.

A train traveled through this space.

Within a seemingly small carriage, there existed a massive astrological platform.

Zhu Xingshu knelt there, her eyes filled with endless stars, with over a dozen card sequences orbiting around her.

Azure streams of light drifted freely until they converged before her eyes into a single point of light.

She grasped the point of light, the stars in her eyes gradually fading away, returning to their original appearance.

"Another fragment of a Blasphemy Card has appeared? How strange, hasn't the frequency of fragments appearing been somewhat too rapid recently? Hmm... Could it be Ye Qiyan?"

Zhu Xingshu propped her chin in thought for a moment, then shook her head, dismissing the idea.

"No, it probably isn't him. He already possesses two fragments. Obtaining one more would allow him to synthesize a complete Blasphemy Card, but this newly appeared one is just a fragment, so it can't be him."

Zhu Xingshu silently opened her palm, and her Blasphemy Card · Star Gazer hovered quietly.

"Tch~ This trip to Suoluo City was such a loss. The card got snatched back, and that charlatan Menrojina who's just like me claims she didn't get anything from that seal either. Really, does she take me for a fool?"

"Speaking of which, I still owe Brother Ye a Demon Card. Although I provided the Floating Armor as a substitute, well... I suppose it still counts as me breaking my promise, right?"

"Fate says I should find a Demon Card coordinate for him? Hmm... That could work too, hehe. One coordinate plus the Floating Armor should complete the contract. Okay, I'll do just that."

"Huh?"

A momentary confusion flashed through Zhu Xingshu's eyes.

"Fate says the Floating Armor has disappeared? How could that be?"

Somewhere in the endless wilderness.

A tall figure shrouded entirely in a black cloak lay motionless on the ground.

Several steel-toothed wolves surrounded him completely.

"Where... is this?"

His mask had fallen aside, revealing he was the Smiling Mask who had been exiled from that Forward Station by Ye Qiyan.

A hand reduced to mere bones extended from the cloak, bracing against the ground to push himself up.

Leaning against a rock, Smiling Mask stared blankly at his own palm.

"I'm really... out?"

The steel-toothed wolves charged, but were all severed by the scythe beside Smiling Mask.

He put his smiling mask back on, leaned on his scythe, and gazed up at the sky of freedom above, clear tears sliding from his eyes.

The direction didn't matter.

Smiling Mask, after countless years of imprisonment, began his forward journey anew.

In this endless wilderness.

No one, absolutely no one, could afford to remain stagnant.

The next day.

Ye Qiyan felt something gently poking his cheek.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he stared somewhat dazedly at the cute little pink chick sitting obediently before him.

"When did I buy a chick? For soup?"

WALL-E came running over with a cup of warm water and, seeing the little chick casually picked up by Ye Qiyan, urgently waved his mechanical arms a few times, pointing toward the rear carriage, afraid his master might eat the little chick in one bite.

"Oh, I remember now. This thing is the Goshawk? More like a housefly, right? So small? And it hatched this quickly?"

After drinking some water, he became slightly more alert.

Pulling up the system interface, he appraised the little creature before him.

【Arcane Goshawk (Juvenile)】

【Hatched from a Ritual Goshawk egg】

【Can use some inherited arcane arts.】

【Current: Claw, Call】

"..."

Claw and Call qualify as arcane arts?

"So weak, but it's just a little thing. Hmm... What would happen if I Sublimate it?"

Thinking this, he suddenly remembered what had happened yesterday before he fell asleep and immediately opened his personal information.

Looking at the two pieces of information there, his eyes shone.

【Stamina: 140】【Spirit: 150】

The Floating Armor, after undergoing one super Sublimation, had transformed into the Wandering Star Holy Sigil, providing him with an additional 20 points of spirit and stamina.

This was exactly the growth he needed most.

He bought a mirror from the Trading Platform, had WALL-E hold it, and looked at the golden-red patterns on his back reflected in the mirror. Reaching out to touch them, he found nothing unusual, as if they had always existed on his skin.

"Autonomous defense and independent attack functions—I'll test those out at the next station when I get the chance."

Taking the five Train Coins generated by the Dragon Card · Wealth that WALL-E handed him, he picked up the Arcane Goshawk that was wriggling like a penguin on the bed.

He hadn't performed Sublimation on any living creature besides himself yet, so this was a perfect test subject.

Poking its beak.

"Sublimate."

【Stamina: 140→135 】

The consumption wasn't much, and the Arcane Goshawk's body showed no changes.

【Arcane Goshawk → Arcane Imperial Blood Goshawk】

【A goshawk possessing imperial goshawk bloodline】

Its bloodline had undergone some purification, and its potential was temporarily exhausted.

The reason it was temporary was because the little creature clearly couldn't handle further Sublimation after this one round. If he wanted to continue Sublimating it, he would need to wait until the goshawk leveled up.

Ye Qiyan lost interest and casually tossed it to WALL-E, telling him to return the chick to where it came from.

Let it complete its first growth phase in the breeding carriage first.

His stamina hadn't decreased much, and after breakfast, it would probably recover completely.

Time: 9:45.

Ye Qiyan considered which of his current items could undergo the next stage of Sublimation.

He currently possessed two level 7 items.

【Delusion of Obsession】and 【Frost Enchantment·Six-Barrel Rotary Grenade Launcher】

His current stamina and spirit were absolutely sufficient to Sublimate one of them. Even if they resisted fiercely, it wouldn't matter because his talent could now ignore such resistance.

It would just consume more spirit and stamina, which was insignificant.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Qiyan picked up the Delusion of Obsession.

Although he never had the chance to use it, this book still had its unique value as an ultra-low-budget version of the Anchor's banishment ability.

The Anchor's banishment required removing three anchor coordinates, and he could only place one per day, meaning he could use banishment at minimum once every three days.

During those three days, the Delusion of Obsession could serve as a substitute.

"You're the one."

Gently touching the book's cover, Ye Qiyan quietly spoke those two words he had uttered countless times since coming to this world.

"Sublimate."

Spirit began to drain away.

Azure light streams enveloped the Delusion of Obsession.

It resisted, yet couldn't resist.

Sublimation was forcibly changing it.

【Sublimation successful!】

【Spirit: 150→50】

【Delusion of Obsession → Book of Reality and Illusion (No Level)】

The level had disappeared.

So had the potential.

It was as if Sublimation had torn the Delusion of Obsession apart, then kneaded and reassembled it into a completely new form.

Was this what ignoring resistance after talent self-Sublimation meant?
