Chapter 184: The Ice Fang White Wolf's Frost Vein
Chapter 184: The Ice Fang White Wolf's Frost Vein
A phone call from Miss Qin disrupted Su Ping's schedule.
Despite this, ten days later, the evolution of the Crowned Wolf King was an event he couldn't miss.
Moreover, ten days later, the New Year's Day was just around the corner.
Coincidentally, the Breeder Competition was also set to begin around that time.
Of course, with the evolution happening ten days later, Miss Qin's call was indeed quite early.
In the end, Qin Xiaoxue agreed over the phone to have someone named Qinyi come and pick him up in a few days to go directly to Magic City.
Obviously, this Qinyi was the same person who had brought him the Wan Hua Ming He Meditation Technique before.
After hanging up, Su Ping let out a sigh of relief.
This trip would take at least half a month.
Naturally, he needed to ensure everything was in order at the Wood Heart.
Meanwhile, he also had some tasks to complete.
It was clear that Old Liu had no intention of leaving, and while they were having breakfast at the base, the designers, who had spent the night working and now had red eyes, finally showed up.
There were four design companies.
However, even with just the Wood Heart, one night was not enough, so they only had time to briefly discuss their blueprints, initial ideas, and design sketches on the virtual reality simulation sand table.
But even with this, Su Ping could already see many things.
There was no doubt that Su Ping took the design of his Wood Heart very seriously.
However, it must be said that these four companies were among the top design and decoration companies in Linzhou.
The garden and botanical garden designs they presented were all excellent, and it was hard to say which one was better or which one Su Ping liked more.
Each design had its unique charm, leaving Su Ping momentarily undecided about which one to choose.
But soon, he found something special in one of the designs.
This company's design retained some connections to the areas outside the Wood Heart and the Water Heart.
As the designer with black-framed glasses explained their design, they also mentioned Su Ping's desire to expand the Wood Heart, confirming his target and choice.
The other designs were also impressive.
Some were exquisite, some were grand, some offered excellent value, and some balanced various aspects.
However, none truly grasped Su Ping's intentions or the future development plans for the surrounding land.
This small detail alone determined the final success or failure.
Su Ping confirmed the overall design and took a moment to breathe.
Liu Fuhai, standing nearby, smiled slightly, "Your ambitions are indeed grand, young man. Are you planning to make your Wood Heart the first base in Jianghai?"
Su Ping chuckled, "I just want to research more pet beasts, and the conditions are quite favorable. It's something to keep me occupied."
Liu Fuhai nodded, and then Old Liu thought for a moment before finally speaking up, "Xiao Ping, the Wood Heart started with wolf pets. Don't you think limiting yourself to just the Wood Wolf might hinder your breeding path? As a token of appreciation for your contributions to the development of the Jianghai Province's Wood Wolf breeding, the Breeder Association can gift you fifty other wolf pets for breeding. How about ten each of Snow Wolves, Sand Wolves, Flame Wolves, Shadow Wolves, and Hunter Wolves?"
Su Ping gave Old Liu a strange look and then said, "Old Liu, have you encountered some difficulties? You can tell me, and I might be able to offer some new insights from a different perspective."
Embarrassed by the young man's insight, Old Liu rubbed his nose and then explained, "It's not that bad. I was just thinking about your exceptional talent, and the potential of wolf pets is indeed great. You might not know that the Western Desert Breeder, who is close to the Ghost Sage, has a wolf pet evolution as one of his main battle pets.
And recently, I've indeed encountered some challenges in my research on Snow Wolf evolutions..."
Su Ping gave him a peculiar look and then said, "Old Liu, have you encountered some difficulties? You can tell me, and I might be able to offer some new insights from a different perspective."
The discoveries from the Bestiary, the enhanced talent effect, and the newly lit pet beasts all gave Su Ping some ideas.
Why did lighting up the Peach Bloom, Spear Pine King, and Longevity Banyan enhance his talent, while the Flame Clematis and Sky-reaching Wisteria gained a new Rain Summoning Technique?
Su Ping spent the night with Old Sha, and during that time, he had some speculations.
The Peach Bloom and Hundred Birds Paulownia Tree were both tree-type pets, while the Flame Clematis and Sky-reaching Wisteria were vine-type plants.
My innate talent, 'Mind Communication', was obtained from the Larch Tree, Li Shu.
Of course, the Larch Tree is also a plant-type pet beast.
So, Su Ping's guess is that after obtaining the talent from a pet beast of the same category, the remaining pet beast bestiaries of the same category will also be enhanced, thereby improving the corresponding pet beast's awakened talent.
Although, in terms of broader classification, trees and vines are both plant types.
However, there are significant differences between the two.
In that case, does this mean that the same principle applies to other pet beasts?
For example, the wolf pets.
In the beginning, Su Ping relied on the Forest Wolf, Xiao Qing, and the innate reward talent he obtained was 'True Eye', which is also one of the most practical talents.
In that case, is it possible that by relying on the wolf pets to light up the remaining wolf pet types in the bestiary, the acquired innate reward will be to enhance the skill level of this True Eye?
Therefore, facing Lao Liu's obvious hint, Su Ping began to seriously consider the matter.
He naturally had no intention of contracting other wolf pets, but it was obviously necessary to light up the Divine Bestiary.
It was also necessary to enhance the effect of the True Eye talent.
However, if he were to settle down, with the current size of the Wood Heart, not to mention anything else, there was definitely no more room in his own base.
He couldn't keep all the other wolf pets in his base, could he? Su Ping suddenly felt that he might have to re-plan his own territory.
Should he plan out a separate area for the Forest Wolf and the other wolf pets?
But it wouldn't be necessary. First of all, the Forest Wolf already had a vast area of forest land dedicated to it.
Instead, he could develop the Forest Wolf's forest land horizontally, removing the fences and connecting it with the land to the west of his territory.
Moreover, wolves are different from each other.
Most plant-type pet beasts can live together, but wolf pets, due to their different attributes, still need to maintain some distance.
And their activity range should be larger.
However, the area to the west is not wasteland; it belongs to someone else.
Buying the land would not be easy.
Su Ping scratched his head.
At the same time, Su Ping thought of something that brought up a huge dilemma for him! If the wolf pets were grouped into a brand new development area, what should this area be called?
The Wolf Heart was straightforward, but the problem was that the Wolf Heart already had a magic potion. Although it wasn't a big issue, as the map panel was one thing and the magic potion another, Su Ping's obsessive-compulsive tendencies still made him feel a bit awkward about it.
However, Liu Fuhai, who was standing beside him, seemed to have misunderstood. After all, most people wouldn't think that Su Ping's troubled expression was due to such an abstract reason. Old Liu said, "It's no problem. If you don't have the time..."
"Old Liu, you've misunderstood. This is a good thing, and I won't refuse. I'm just thinking about where the Wood Heart can accommodate these new pet beasts..."
Old Liu smiled and waved his hand, "It's not a problem. The land in the east suburbs, on both sides of the main road, is mostly residential, but it's all suburban. Just buy it all up,
If you think it's too much trouble, I can help you with the demolition compensation."
Su Ping pursed his lips.
He now doubted what kind of problem Old Liu had encountered. Was it really that difficult? Even if he got those wolves, he wouldn't be able to solve it directly. It was obvious that Old Liu's problem was not something an ordinary person could easily handle.
But he had to be grateful for the offer.
Even offering to pay the demolition compensation, it was clear how much Old Liu wanted Su Ping to continue researching wolf pets.
In such a situation, what reason did Su Ping have to refuse?
He nodded, "But the demolition compensation is not necessary. When the time comes, you can just advise me on the living environment for the wolf pets."
"Hehe, no problem!" Old Liu quickly nodded, finally guiding this young man onto the 'right path'.
"Now you can tell me, what is your problem?"
"Actually, I'm telling you this because you probably won't be able to help much for now. The evolved form of the Snow Wolf, the 'Ice Fang White Wolf' that I created, I want to develop a super skill based on the 'Frost Vein' of the Ice Fang White Wolf, but I haven't had any success so far."
Old Liu sighed.
What he said was indeed true.
Su Ping didn't know much about the Snow Wolf, let alone the super skill cultivation of its evolved form.
"Frost Vein? What type of skill is that?"
Su Ping blinked, now somewhat intrigued.
When working with high-level breeders like Liu Fuhai, one often gained significant insights with ease.
"It's also a special skill, and an extremely rare one at that. It allows the user's body to crystallize like ice, similar to ice element transformation, but it's more comprehensive. However, unlike element transformation, it doesn't grant immunity to most physical attacks."
Perhaps sensing that his explanation was a bit lacking, Old Liu didn't waste any words. He waved his hand, and a bright light appeared in the room.
In an instant, the once-warm dining room temperature dropped by more than ten degrees.
A massive white wolf, standing over a meter tall, materialized in the room.
Su Ping looked over.
Its blue eyes were like beautiful sapphires.
Its white fur was pristine, and even its tail, which dragged on the ground for over a meter, had a transparent, crystalline quality.
A faint white chill emanated from its body.
Cold and aloof.
Its exposed fangs and claws were also like ice crystals.
At first glance, if not for its lively blue eyes, its entire body seemed like an ice sculpture of a fake wolf.
Su Ping had seen Rong Qiu's evolved Coldwater Wolf before, a dark blue Snow Wolf evolution with a far less impressive appearance than Old Liu's Ice Fang White Wolf.
"It's so beautiful!"
Su Ping nodded in appreciation.
The smile on Liu Fuhai's face grew wider. He couldn't guarantee much else, but he was absolutely confident in his son's looks.
"Whitenight, unleash your Frost Vein!"
"Woof!"
The Ice Fang White Wolf named Whitenight let out a low growl.
The next moment, the chill emanating from its body intensified.
Its body, at this moment, completely lost all signs of life, transforming into an actual ice sculpture.
Its entire body was crystal clear, shining like diamonds.
Su Ping could even see through its fur to the muscles beneath, which had also turned into ice crystals.
Astonishing.
Su Ping's interest was piqued. He gently stroked the wolf's body.
Cold and hard.
Unlike element transformation.
Su Ping narrowed his eyes slightly, and the True Eye provided some feedback:
[Ice Fang White Wolf (Contracted - Other)]
[Attribute: Ice]
[Current Level: Archduke Eighth Rank]
[Race Potential: Archduke Eighth Rank]
[Skills: Frost Vein (Perfect), Ice Storm (Proficient), Ice Devouring Snow (Proficient), Temperature Control (Proficient), Ice Freeze Aura (Skilled), Ice Armor (Proficient), Ice Crystal Ray (Skilled)]
[Frost Vein (Perfect): A special state-based skill. Enters an ice crystal form, greatly enhancing defense and ice elemental energy. Significantly reduces energy consumption in cold environments and can be used in conjunction with Ice Devouring Snow...]
Reading the skill description, Su Ping nodded. It was somewhat similar to the Mutated Wood Body of the Thousand Wood Wolf.
The Ice Fang White Wolf's talents were impressive, with numerous skills, all of which were evidently powerful combat abilities.
It could be considered a top-tier Monarch Rank ice-type pet beast.
However, regarding the Frost Vein skill, Su Ping had an idea:
"Mr. Liu, have you tried combining it with the Ice Heart skill?"
Old Liu gave a wry smile, "Su Ping, the Ice Heart is a mutated skill of the Water Heart in the Water Attribute. Although it's not a true mutated skill due to the abundance of ice-type pet beasts, not every species can be bred with this skill. I've tried, but I haven't been able to successfully breed it yet."
Su Ping nodded.
He understood that perfecting new super-tier skill combinations wasn't easy.
Even advanced breeders couldn't just take any skill and cultivate it on a corresponding pet beast.
Otherwise, the Wood Heart skill cultivated on the Forest Wolf wouldn't have attracted so much attention.
Looking at it this way, Su Ping didn't have any better ideas.
With that in mind, Su Ping nodded, "After the breeder competition is over, please send those wolf pet juveniles over. These days, I'll also have someone contact the owner and purchase this land deed."
