Chapter 517: The Amazing Dragon Nurturing Technique! The Blood-Spitting Heaven Vine!
Chapter 517: The Amazing Dragon Nurturing Technique! The Blood-Spitting Heaven Vine!
【Dragon Nurturing Bamboo (Wild)】
【Age: 3 years, 4 months, and 7 days】
【Attributes: Space, Wood】
【Current Level: Overlord Tenth Rank】
【Racial Realm: Monarch Tenth Rank】
【Racial Skills: Dragon Nourishment Technique (Entry), Dragon Summoning Technique (Entry), Spatial Reinforcement Technique (Entry), Spatial Weaving Technique (Entry), Bamboo Shadow Blade (Proficient), Bamboo Mother Technique (Entry)】
The details of the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo before Su Ping's eyes were revealed.
Judging from the current level and racial limit, there was no doubt that although it had evolved, the potential of this creature was not as satisfactory as expected.
It could even be considered quite average.
After all, the previous Dragon Nurturing Bamboo was already at the Overlord Rank, and its evolution only reached the energy limit of the Sovereign Rank.
It was not a particularly high-level evolution, and the number of skills was also among the fewest for Sovereign Rank beast companions.
However, these few skills were enough to make the evolution of the Dragon Pattern Bamboo significant and unique among the Dragon Nation's upper echelon.
【Dragon Nourishment Technique (Entry): Born alongside dragons, this core skill, named after its purpose, can accumulate power and bestow it upon companion dragons! Additionally, when companion dragons nearby are about to break through and improve, the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo can also follow and enhance its own level!】
A simple skill, but its effect is direct and extraordinary.
As a high-level potential beast companion of the Dragon race, their normal growth cycle is indeed very slow.
Normally, if not for the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo, Xiao Hui would have required several more months to break through the Overlord Rank, and to break through the Sovereign Rank without using resources to nurture it, it would have taken an estimated one to two years.
Now, the effect of the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo has accelerated this process.
Most importantly, based on the skills Su Ping has accumulated in this period, this skill might not be as simple as it seems.
Currently, this skill is only at the entry level, and once the skill level increases, there might be other unexpected benefits as well.
As for the other skills of the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo, there is no need to elaborate.
The Dragon Summoning Technique is a skill used to summon companion dragons, and when near the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo, the combat power of the companion dragons will be stronger.
The remaining skills are relatively basic spatial skills, but they are not attack-oriented.
Overall, the effects are quite impressive.
Especially the effect of the Bamboo Mother Technique:
【Bamboo Mother Technique (Entry): Can disperse bamboo branches, forming a bamboo forest with itself as the center, where the branches can grow into new Dragon Nurturing Bamboo, but they remain under the control of the Bamboo Mother's will. The offshoot Dragon Nurturing Bamboo has no self-awareness or wisdom, and the larger the bamboo forest, the better the skill's effect and the faster the skill's improvement! Additionally, the offshoot Dragon Nurturing Bamboo can be used as a spatial resource.】
The effect of this skill is astonishing, allowing a single bamboo to form a forest, although it is not a rapid reproduction of individual Dragon Nurturing Bamboo.
After all, the fact that it can be used as a resource proves its value, and moreover, with the successful evolution of this one, Su Ping can directly create two more identical Dragon Nurturing Bamboo with the current number of Dragon beast companions in the Heart of All Spirits.
Undoubtedly, this is a risk-free investment!
Furthermore, the spatial reinforcement skill is somewhat similar to the effect of Floating Wood, allowing it to take root in the void and enhance spatial abilities.
This thought once again stirred in Su Ping's mind.
However, before he could ponder its feasibility, his soul indeed experienced a unique fluctuation.
The rarely opened tome, at this moment, slowly opened:
【The cultivation of the evolved body 'Dragon Pattern Bamboo' is complete, and the 'Dragon Pattern Bamboo' has discovered a stage-specific branch evolution body tome 'Dragon Nurturing Bamboo'. Obtain 2000 experience points for the Dragon Pattern Bamboo tome.】
【Do you want to perfect the specific cultivation method for Dragon Pattern Bamboo? 800 experience points are required to perfect it! Do you want to proceed?】
Hmm?
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, instantly understanding the meaning of this feedback from the Heart of All Spirits.
In other words, the evolution discovered by Su Ping, or the genetic talent of the Dragon Pattern Bamboo itself, still has room for improvement during the evolution process.
However, Su Ping didn't even think about it and immediately chose to confirm, as he had just received a significant bonus.
He was also eager to see the specific information about the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo.
After all, the effect of the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo is unique, and he was genuinely concerned about any unknown influences it might have on the Dragon race.
Only when his golden finger is perfectly confirmed can he put his mind at ease and allow the other Iron Dragon and Ghost Dragon to join this cultivation process.
So, 800 points of tome experience were instantly consumed like flowing water, and the cultivation method organized by the Heart of All Spirits appeared before Su Ping:
【Dragon Nurturing Bamboo: The Sovereign Rank evolution body of Dragon Pattern Bamboo, which has absorbed Dragon blood but cannot transform into a Dragon. Instead, due to its unique individuality, it can become a special evolution beast companion that grows alongside Dragons! The growth rate of the Dragon race that grows with this beast companion will be significantly faster!】
【First Cultivation (Preparation) Stage: Dragon Pattern Bamboo level has reached Overlord First Rank or above, 10 to 15 drops of mature Dragon blood! One immature (not yet at Sovereign Rank) young Dragon of the corresponding Dragon attribute and one resource! Two Sympathetic Lotus Seeds!】
It was merely the first stage of preparation for the first breeding that Su Ping discovered the difference in an instant, and he immediately understood where the initial breeding of the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo had gone wrong.
Indeed!
As expected:
【Second Breeding Stage: Water the Dragon Pattern Bamboo with 2 drops of dragon blood daily for absorption! Note that blood from wood and earth-type dragons of the same clan is most easily absorbed. For blood from other dragon attributes, an additional drop is required daily! This process takes 5-7 days. During this stage, the Dragon Nurturing Bamboo uses dragon blood to master the method of connecting with the dragon's body energy.】
【Third Breeding Stage: After the dragon's body is assimilated, interact with the corresponding immature dragon's energy! Continue until the bamboo body completely adapts to the dragon's energy, then both parties use the Sympathetic Lotus Seeds.】
【Fourth Breeding Stage: When both parties are in harmony and working together with one heart, provide energy resources to the Dragon Pattern Bamboo and complete the first energy infusion, thus completing the evolution!】
Indeed!
The problem lies with the Sympathetic Lotus Seeds.
Apparently, without the Sympathetic Lotus Seeds, it seems that the Dragon Pattern Bamboo would struggle to perform the first energy infusion for the dragon, and this Dragon Pattern Bamboo can only evolve after a successful energy infusion.
A completely selfless beast! However, the fact that this Dragon Pattern Bamboo can achieve this shows its exceptional abilities, worthy of being the first Beast with the innate talent to evolve into Dragon Nurturing Bamboo.
But not every Dragon Pattern Bamboo has the talent of this particular bamboo, so the Sympathetic Lotus Seeds are undoubtedly necessary.
Fortunately, judging by the situation, there seem to be no side effects, allowing Su Ping to completely put his mind at ease.
His three dragons at home won't have to continue being lucky charms and rice buckets; after breeding all three Dragon Pattern Bamboos, their growth rate will accelerate, and he can take them out for walks during his free time.
This is excellent news.
As Su Ping envisioned the future of strolling with his three dragons,
at this very moment, when the breeding of the Dragon Pattern Bamboo was completed, an unexpected special feedback appeared on the Ten Thousand Spirit Catalog, seemingly unrelated to this bamboo.
The beast in this catalog was a kaleidoscope of colors, like a rainbow, with a breathtakingly beautiful appearance.
It was none other than the Rainbow Coral Worm:
【Further understanding and knowledge of the evolved 'Rainbow Dragon' has been gained, and the breeding requirements have been lowered. Consume 1000 experience points from the Divine Dragon Clan Catalog to improve the second breeding requirements!】
Indeed.
The discovery of breeding Dragon Nurturing Bamboo has unexpectedly further reduced the experience consumption for breeding the Rainbow Dragon!
This is undoubtedly a huge and pleasant surprise.
Regardless, after the Rainbow Jade Butterfly grows to its racial limit, the second stage of the Rainbow Dragon's breeding will begin.
According to Su Ping's speculation, this evolved Rainbow Dragon should also have three stages at the very least.
And that's the minimum.
If the evolved form of the Rainbow Dragon is the Holy Spirit Rank of the dragon race.
Currently, the Rainbow Jade Butterfly's racial limit is only at the Elite Rank, so theoretically, the ideal second stage of evolution should be at the peak of the Monarch Rank.
Of course, it's also possible for it to reach the Overlord Rank through a limit break evolution, or there might be more than three stages, reaching the Grand Overlord Rank, or even extending to four stages of evolution.
Breeding this creature is a lengthy tug-of-war.
But saving some effort is always a good thing! It's a double joy! At this moment, even the surrounding beasts seemed to be energized by Su Ping's excitement, and he wondered if they would give him some surprises as well.
However, just as he was feeling elated, a somewhat discordant mental fluctuation of disharmonious spiritual fluctuation was transmitted at this time:
"Huala! (Hmph, it's just a Monarch Rank evolved form, after all. My Serpent Shadow Bamboo from the Ten Thousand Mountain Range's Jade Crystal Peak can even have a chance to evolve the quite talented Dragon Pattern Bamboo into an Emperor Rank!)
Indeed, the only one who could speak like this at this time is the Ten Thousand Mountain Range's Jade Crystal Peak's Everlasting Green.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liu Liu Book Bar~~
Su Ping looked at this thing with a smile, unbothered by its taunts.
However, several plant beasts nearby emitted a dangerous energy fluctuation.
Everlasting Green was not the least bit intimidated.
Apart from a few, it indeed had the strength and capital to be proud.
However, Su Ping's unbothered gaze only made Everlasting Green angrier:
"Huala! (Human! Didn't you say before that in the Heart of All Spirits, beast evolution requires consuming points? That crow came early, and managing the bird flock is one thing, but what contributions has this little fool of a bamboo made? What points are there to let you help it evolve?)
Clearly, compared to its previous words, Everlasting Green's current statement undoubtedly hit the nail on the head.
Indeed, the previous point system in the Heart of All Spirits was mentioned by Su Ping himself, and he said it in front of all the plant beasts.
It was quite a fair system.
However, now that Su Ping has helped the Dragon Pattern Bamboo evolve first, won't it dishearten the other plant beasts that have been working diligently during this time?
It must be said that the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine is indeed a formidable beast of the Ten Thousand Mountain Range, and these words have indeed drawn the attention of many pet beasts towards Su Ping. Only the Heaven-Reaching Vine, the Ancient Tree of Life, and the Gun Pine King slightly swayed, as if secretly laughing.
They clearly knew the real reason, right?
Facing this creature's interrogation, Su Ping obviously had to respond, otherwise, the united front of the Heart of All Spirits would indeed be a little dangerous.
"Well asked!"
Su Ping smiled and walked to the center:
"The point system is a rule I established. Except for special circumstances, this system will not be broken. Even if it is broken due to special circumstances, such as reaching the brink of evolution or being severely injured, I can't just stand by and watch!
The same goes for this: coming to the Heart of All Spirits means becoming a part of this big family! However, even if a special case allows for early evolution, your points will still be deducted in advance!"
The Ancient Blue Heaven Vine swayed slightly again,
apparently dissatisfied with the explanation of this so-called negative deduction.
However, before it could speak again, Su Ping continued:
"It's just that the points of the Dragon Pattern Bamboo can afford this evolution!"
Xiao Qing immediately seized the opportunity:
"Hualala! (How is this possible?! First, the Dragon Pattern Bamboo doesn't produce resources, and second, it's so stupid that the points needed for evolution are so high that it can't even exchange for a single Overlord-level resource...)"
Su Ping still maintained his smile:
"It seems you know quite a bit about the point system's exchange requirements! Very good, very good! But why are the points of the Dragon Pattern Bamboo sufficient? Don't you know when others know?"
In an instant, the slowly swaying body of the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine stiffened in place.
The other Plant-type pet beasts also turned to look at this creature.
Su Ping coughed lightly:
"Cough, cough. The Dragon Pattern Bamboo withstood the temptation of the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine and firmly held on to its will. It promptly reported and handed over the enemy's sugar-coated bullet. The Dragon Nation has never mastered the special evolution body, the 'Serpent Shadow Bamboo,' and its cultivation evolution method! As a special reward, 50,000 points are granted!"
This evolutionary opportunity was also sought by the Dragon Pattern Bamboo itself, allowing it to reduce the required evolution points. Additionally, as an Overlord-level pet beast, it only used 25,000 points of the Heart of All Spirits! This is clearly stated in the Heart of All Spirits manual!"
The truth is revealed!
The body of the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine swayed slightly and then suddenly turned its 'head' to stare at the Dragon Pattern Bamboo:
"Hualala! (You stupid idiot!)"
Su Ping became serious:
"Little guy, we have to honor our bets! If you dare to make a move in the Heart of All Spirits, you'll have to bear the consequences!"
With these words, the guardian of the Forest of Life, the Ancient Tree of Life, extended its branches and leaves, exuding a profound sense of threat.
The Ancient Blue Heaven Vine quickly retreated.
Su Ping smiled slightly:
"Alright, regardless of my previous promises, I know you think my cultivation is nothing compared to yours in the Ten Thousand Mountain Range. But I also have things that you don't have! Old Tree, show him!"
Instantly, countless roots and stems emerged from beneath the Old Tree, stirring the ground.
The Ancient Blue Heaven Vine stood there, stunned:
"Hualala! (Rooted and Firm?!)"
"That's right. This is a Transcendent Skill I can cultivate, and not just one..."
Su Ping waved his hand, leaving behind a meaningful sentence before leading away the still dazed Dragon Pattern Bamboo and Xiao Hui, who had yet to recover from the shock of evolution, from the peak.
The entire Forest of Life gradually dispersed.
In their place, only a few pet beasts remained, excluding the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine.
For example, the Blood Bone Skeleton Locust, which had also reached the peak of the Monarch Rank, and the most dazzling Jade Branch and Crystal Tree.
The former looked at the dazed Ancient Blue Heaven Vine and slowly approached. The red skull-like leaves hanging from its branches swayed slightly, emitting a faint psychic wave:
"Huff huff huff! (Blue Heaven Vine, do you still stand by your previous words? Give me the Blood River Technique first. After I evolve, no, after I find the opportunity, we'll return to the Ten Thousand Mountain Range together!)"
If it were before, the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine would have been thrilled by this fellow's change of heart. But at this moment, the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine merely sent out a 'cold' psychic wave.
In summary, it's just one word:
Get lost!
Though it looked fierce, this Plant-type pet beast, the Blood Bone Skeleton Locust, was indeed not a good one. It left with a skip, and its psychic wave was still muttering:
"Huff huff huff! (Who wouldn't give it? Giving it to me is better than giving it to that stupid Dragon Pattern Bamboo, right?)"
The Ancient Blue Heaven Vine scanned its surroundings, seemingly wanting to approach the Plant-type pet beasts it had previously failed to sway.
However, they all seemed to see a generous donor in the Ancient Blue Heaven Vine, which almost made it want to vomit:
Why is this happening?! Damn humans!!!
