Little Seven's change can be called evolution in biology.

Moreover, it's a positive evolution.

Saine wasn't quite sure what kind of changes the blood of Level-4 lifeform would bring to Little Seven.

However, according to the various data he has obtained from recent tests, Little Seven's values in all aspects have significantly improved compared to two years ago.

This kind of improvement is definitely not something that can be achieved simply by eating and sleeping, or by diligently practicing.

For the past two years, Saine has also been diligently conducting Body Tempering Experiment in the Azure Fire.

However, his physical development is slower than that of Little Seven, who received the blessing of Level-4 lifeform blood.

Saine was naturally happy to see this situation.

So much so that after learning the specific growth rate of Little Seven's physique, Saine himself had an idea: why not try getting the flesh and blood of a Level-4 lifeform?

Saine's idea was, of course, a pipe dream.

Let alone Level-4 lifeform, even if a Level-2 Creature appeared in front of him now, it would be difficult for Saine to defeat it.

Saine's mentor Luluman, is Level-4 lifeform. Does he really think he would shamelessly go to his mentor and ask her to donate a drop of his blood?

Before Saine could even utter those words, her mentor's Magic Staff slammed hard into the head of her worthless disciple.

In fact, besides Level-4 lifeform like Luluman, the Demigod-level Creature Bixi in front of us probably possesses considerable Bloodline power as well.

Saine had received a portion of the blood of the Demigod-level Fire-Breathing Dragon King to temper his body.

Even the blood of the Fire-Breathing Dragon King had a miraculous effect on Saine's Body Tempering Experiment, so the blood of the Bixi is probably even stronger.

However, in the end, Saine never mentioned this to Bixi.

Because Saine considered Bixi a true friend, he believed that Bixi the same way.

As a friend, Saine didn't want to view things too pragmatically.

He was not a shrewd, manipulative, or sociable Mage.

Saine doesn't have many close friends, but Saine cherishes each and every one of them.

Although there is no way to obtain Level-4 lifeform blood yet, based on the changes in Little Seven's physique and the composition of its blood, Saine has still made considerable progress during this period.

He was like a sponge, constantly absorbing any knowledge that was beneficial to him.

The same applies to the knowledge of Necromancy Element and Summoning Element in the past, and it also applies to the knowledge of Bloodline Studies now.

What's even more surprising is that, after so much time, Saine has not grown tired of the very diverse and extensive knowledge he has acquired.

Saine could even make connections between these different departments of knowledge.

Perhaps this is the unique ability and talent that belongs to Saine.

He's a "genius" too, otherwise he wouldn't have been valued by Luluman.

Sailing across the vast Western Ocean can be tedious, but it can also be fulfilling.

During this period, Saine basically didn't stop to rest.

Perhaps it was the upcoming journey to the Western Islands to find his lover Lina, his senior brother Zorro, and his senior sister Fei'er that made Saine gradually become anxious and excited.

He needed to constantly immerse himself in various experiments to alleviate this anxiety.

As a qualified Mage, Saine needs to remain rational at all times.

He did a very good job in this regard.

Two years later, on Shayi Island in the southeast of the Western Islands.

Gazing at the dark outline of the outer island in the distance, Saine felt a surge of emotion.

According to Bixi and his fellow sea creatures, the Shayi Island in front of them, strictly speaking, already belongs to the territory of the Western Islands.

When they crossed the Western Ocean before, Saine and Bixi also passed by many islands.

It is no exaggeration to call some islands "continents," and each island has its own unique ecology and mystical environment.

But no matter which island in the Western Ocean it was, none of them excited Saine more than the unremarkable Shayi Island before him.

Perhaps this is due to psychological factors.

Western Islands, here I come!

As the region with the highest density of islands in the Wizard World, the Western Islands have held a special position in the Wizard World since Ancient Era.

Even a small island in the Western Islands is comparable in size to one of the two West Continent in the Poison Fire Green Flame World.

This stems from the Wizard World's unparalleled vastness and depth as a Top-Level Plane.

Below those small islands are countless tiny islands, Li Island, and Chain Island.

The number of these tiny islands, Li Island, and Chain Island is difficult to count because there are simply too many, and new islands are born and old ones disappear every year in the Wizard World. Geological changes and shifts in the Ley Lines have never ceased in the vast Wizard World.

As a constantly developing and expanding World Civilization, the Wizard World must not only ensure the continuous improvement of its power and influence in the Surrounding Starfield and civilizations, but also ensure the positive changes in all aspects of its own world.

The Wizard World currently has Four Guardians. The Guardians do not participate in decisions and plans outside the world, but they value the development of the Wizard World more than anyone else.

The Western Islands are usually under the jurisdiction of the Guardian of Spring and Summer Guardian.

There are many reasons why two guardians are needed here.

In the Western Islands, the number of islands larger than small has long exceeded three thousand.

This number is still slowly increasing, which also indicates that the Wizard World has not stopped its development and expansion.

Although it was his first time arriving in the Western Islands and he was not yet familiar with everything there, Saine still had a relatively clear goal and a preliminary plan.

After all, he had already conceived of it countless times in his mind before this.

Thousand Leaf Coral Island, located in the central part of the Western Islands, is Saine's first stop.

That is the hometown of Moxidu, the mentor of Saine.

In addition to fulfilling his mentor's last wish, his ashes were scattered outside the Gezes City on Thousand Leaf Coral Island.

Saine also wanted to find traces of the Black Magician around Thousand Leaf Coral Island.

In particular, Zorro, Saine's senior brother, and Fei'er, are very likely to have left some clues in their mentor Moxidu's hometown.

If relevant clues can be found, Saine's upcoming trip to the Western Islands will become much clearer.

However, plans never keep up with changes.

Before Saine could even pinpoint the location of Thousand Leaf Coral Island on the Magic Map, the Dragon Turtle Bixi took matters into its own hands and carried Saine to Sea God Bay, southeast of the Western Islands.

This is the hometown of the Dragon Turtle Bixi, and also its birthplace.

Sea God Bay is not an ordinary bay in the literal sense; it is an inland sea area surrounded by several medium-sized islands.

Compared to the Jewel Sea surrounding the Azure Source Holy Tower, this inland sea is roughly the size of a lake compared to a pond.

Bixi grew up here.

Therefore, it seems that Saine's original plan to lure Bixi to settle in the Jewel Sea surrounding the Azure Source Holy Tower was quite difficult.
