Chapter 610: Lil Qing's Great Advancement! Unlocking the External Incarnation
Lil Qing, Su Ping's first contracted beast, was the first, but in terms of impressiveness, she couldn't quite match Qian Yi.
Even later, the little crow she acquired fell slightly short in comparison.
Although Lil Qing's skills were considered high-end, with her Green Demon Physiology and External Incarnation, these two super-tier skills were enough to look down upon most other beasts.
However, Lil Qing's combat strength wasn't actually as outstanding as one might think, especially in the current situation.
Nevertheless, Lil Qing's evolution didn't have any immediate direction. Although Spring Spirit Ginseng, before falling asleep, had given a ginseng whisker to the Green Demon, it was likely meant for Lil Qing's future evolution.
However, Lil Qing's current level hadn't reached the racial limit, and the aftereffects of her previous evolution hadn't been fully digested yet.
So, there was no need to rush.
But evolution wasn't the only way to enhance combat strength further.
The last time Su Ping had a chat with Mermaid Princess and Sacred Dragon Legend, he gained a deeper understanding of External Incarnation and finally realized the true method of using this super-tier skill, a Hall Level Super Skill. Now, he was ready to put it into action.
Green Overflowing Wilderness.
A super-tier domain-type skill of the Poison type, filled with various deadly toxins, is a special super-tier skill that focuses on lethality.
Back then, when they went to the Dianzang Little World Secret Realm, to test Qin Xiaoxue and Su Ping's ability to handle unexpected events, Toxin Saint had the most elite beastmaster in the Dianzang Legion launch a surprise attack on them.
Among them, the battle between the Emerald Snake King and the Stinking Dandelion created a dual-domain effect.
One of them, and the most crucial one, was the Green Overflowing Wilderness skill.
Therefore, Su Ping had a deep impression of that skill.
He begged Liu Niang to teach him the cultivation method and even managed to obtain four sets of the main resources needed for cultivating this skill.
Great King Poison Grass.
Liu Niang was right.
Even on the first day of the new year, it didn't take long for a special aircraft to hover above the Soul of All Spirits. With Su Ping's permission, a figure descended from the sky.
It was a familiar face.
The special forces king who had entered the Dianzang Little World Secret Realm with them, the one with the code name Poison Fang, Wang Luo Bing.
"Greetings, Master Su. It's been a while since we last met."
Wang Luo greeted and directly took out a spatial ring, "This is from the Chief, for you."
"Brother Wang, you're too kind. I didn't expect you to come all this way."
Wang Luo waved his hand and declined Su Ping's invitation to stay for a cup of tea, instead boarding Liu Niang's aircraft and leaving in a hurry.
Great King Poison Grass,
A Sacred Spirit-level Poison-type resource.
Poison-type resources rarely have any positive effects, similar to Death-type resources, and sometimes even more extreme.
Most Poison-type resources have only one effect: poison.
At most, they might enhance specific abilities in specialized Poison-type beasts.
Apart from that, they don't have effects like directly obtaining a super-tier skill like Sword Intent Origin or awakening corresponding attributes like Two-Element Qi. Most Poison-type resources lack these special effects.
Great King Poison Grass is no exception.
Great King Poison Grass has only one effect: deadly poison!
How deadly is this poison? For Sacred Spirit-level beasts with relatively low poison resistance or weaker physical bodies, consuming Great King Poison Grass could very well lead to their immediate demise.
When chatting with Elder Feng, he had inquired about Great King Poison Grass, and Elder Feng had told him a rumor about a colorless and odorless high-grade magic potion, with Great King Poison Grass as one of its ingredients and Green Demon as the main ingredient.
The concoction's effect was rumored to be so potent that it could even poison and kill legendary-level beasts.
The implications of this were obvious.
Of course, such a magic potion wouldn't be very practical and would only be used in special circumstances.
Clearing his mind of these random thoughts, Su Ping once again recalled the cultivation method for Green Overflowing Wilderness.
When Liu Niang had given it to him, the cultivation method was already quite mature; otherwise, it wouldn't have been cultivated on the special forces king of the Dianzang Legion.
However, Su Ping still used the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits to improve the cultivation method.
The improved cultivation method didn't significantly enhance the results, nor did it have any particular differences. The only change was that the cultivation steps became much simpler.
A super-tier skill that can be cultivated through a standardized process would greatly reduce the requirements for cultivators, with the only limitation being resources.
And now, with the resources delivered, the next step was a breeze.
The fundamental principle of Green Wilderness was simple: Poison-type energy, through the influence of Wood-type energy, transformed all surrounding plants into terrifying Poison-type entities.
The domain-type skill, renowned for its direct Poison-type power, was sufficient to make up for Xiao Qing's shortcomings in offensive capabilities.
The formation of Green Wilderness typically required four skills: Toxic Infection, Poison Spread, Poison Blast, and Plant Decomposition.
All four skills were Poison-type, and the last one could be considered a dual-type skill of Wood and Poison.
However, after the improvements made through the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits, Toxic Infection and Poison Spread could be accelerated during skill fusion, directly perfecting them into Green Wilderness.
The most crucial part was the foundational skill, Poison Blast, which had already been cultivated by Su Ping when he determined Xiao Qing's initial cultivation direction, to be used as a skill for Xiao Qing's clones.
It was just that later, when Xiao Qing faced weak opponents, it wasn't necessary, and against stronger ones, like the evolved Qian Yi Xiao Wu Ya, it was useless, making this carefully selected self-destruct skill a redundant waste.
However, it was just right for cultivating Green Wilderness.
So, in reality, Su Ping only needed to cultivate Plant Decomposition.
The remaining steps, when using the Great King Poison Grass, could be perfectly fused in one go.
There was no need for Su Ping to elaborate on the process of cultivating ordinary skills.
In fact, this skill wasn't particularly troublesome.
Perhaps it would require some effort for other Poison-type pets, but Xiao Qing's primary body, the mutated Poison-type Lin Wolf, also had a Wood-type foundation.
The combination of Wood and Poison attributes was inherently invincible.
Under these circumstances, even cultivating all four skills simultaneously wasn't a challenge for Su Ping.
So, without further ado, he got to work.
On the first night of the Lunar New Year, Su Ping spent his time in his cultivation laboratory.
Before him were not other pets but Xiao Qing and its three clones.
In just one night, Xiao Qing and its three clones had already acquired the skill, Plant Decomposition.
Cultivating skills simultaneously on four clones and the primary body was indeed a novel experience for Su Ping.
However, External Incarnations were fundamentally different from ordinary clones.
As cultivation accelerators that even applied to skill cultivation, External Incarnations and the primary body were essentially indistinguishable.
Therefore, the smooth cultivation process exceeded Su Ping's expectations.
The next step was crucial.
Su Ping, fully geared up, wrapped himself from head to toe.
The Great King Poison Grass was no joke.
Even when used for cultivation, a Sacred Spirit-level Poison-type resource, if only a little was absorbed, would likely lead to an unpleasant experience.
And for Xiao Qing, who was only at the Monarch level, there were some risks involved in this cultivation.
The Great King Poison Grass resembled a grasshopper with two antennae, with only two petals connected at the base, entirely dark green, and adorned with light green snake-like patterns.
Please... You... Collect... 6... 9... Books...!
Meanwhile, trails of poison mist encircled this peculiar grass.
Using this grass was the most critical step in cultivating Green Wilderness.
In essence, it was simple: internal consumption and external application.
However, if other Monarch-level pets were to use it, even if they were Poison-type, death was certain.
Therefore, the method of application was a skill in itself.
Su Ping first tore off the petal meant for internal consumption and set it aside, then crushed the four petals for external application, adding six different grades of resources and a large vat of water for dilution, mixing them together.
Simultaneously, he used other resources to cultivate the corresponding elixir for consumption.
Throughout the process, although it was Su Ping's first time, it was relatively effortless due to his extensive experience.
Bottles of elixir were neatly arranged.
By the time he finished, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
Instead of rushing into cultivation under these circumstances, Su Ping finally succumbed to sleep. After a well-deserved rest, in the late night of the second day of the Lunar New Year, he commenced Xiao Qing's subsequent cultivation.
Internal consumption is the most toxic, so preparing various magical potions is essential to directly reduce the absorption in the body, thereby mitigating the damage caused by the Sacred Spirit-level poison-type resources.
External application, on the other hand, is relatively simpler, but in reality, this step of external application is the most crucial part of the entire cultivation process that is simplified.
The main reason for the simplification is to utilize the pet's body to release toxins, eliminating the need for cultivating against toxicity and spreading poison.
After resting for a while, Shu Ping started the operation to avoid any potential complications.
With three clones and one main body, he observed the effects of the internal consumption of the potions at regular intervals while cultivating four of them simultaneously, and Shu Ping still managed it with remarkable ease.
As a master cultivator, Shu Ping had proven himself to be highly competent.
Finally, another full night had passed.
Looking at the laboratory, with Xiao Qing and the three clones soaking in four large vats, Shu Ping finally heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, it was a super-tier skill.
Every super-tier skill, recognized by the world's origin, possessed power far beyond that of ordinary skills.
Such skills, even if the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits was extraordinary, and the simplification was perfect, could never be as simple as cultivating ordinary skills.
Fortunately, without any incidents, it should be almost done!
Xiao Qing and the clones, with their green flame-like bodies, seemed to tremble continuously in the four large vats.
"Woof!"
Occasional cries of pain echoed from within.
Although Shu Ping felt pity, Xiao Qing was not inherently bothered by this kind of pain.
For the sake of becoming stronger, the little guy could endure it.
It must be said that compared to the lazy Shu Ping, his pet was indeed a bit too eager, especially Xiao Qing and Qian Yi.
After Qian Yi's evolution, which directly suppressed Xiao Qing, the little guy had been holding his breath.
Although cultivating Green Overflowing Wilderness did not guarantee surpassing Qian Yi, it was still a step closer.
Finally, accompanied by a wild howl, almost simultaneously, the three clones and the main body opened their eyes:
"Woof!"
Two faint white lights flashed across their bodies, signifying the enlightenment of skills.
Then, this light began to flicker more intensely.
Even before the final step of cultivation, Shu Ping had already prepared the unique resource of Master Zhu Hong Zhu: the Heart Essence Jade.
This resource, which could accelerate the formation of super-tier skills to the greatest extent, had little use for others, but for Shu Ping, it was extremely effective.
As expected, amidst the flickering light, the super-tier skill that would usually take two to three days to condense and form, accompanied by the intensifying radiance, transformed from a faint white light into an ink-green light, and Xiao Qing's super-tier skill appeared once again!
No, it wasn't just one!
Four skills appeared simultaneously on Xiao Qing's external incarnation!
One skill cultivated into four, granting four insights into skill cultivation and advancement.
This was the terrifying aspect of the External Incarnation.
What Shu Ping hadn't anticipated was that this was his first attempt at cultivating with the External Incarnation, and the results exceeded his imagination.
No, the fusion hadn't even begun, and the initial signs were already evident.
Suddenly, two rays of light that Shu Ping had never expected flashed across the four figures.
They were the lights of skill level advancement.
They represented the pet's improvement.
And not only did two lights appear consecutively, but they were both super-tier skills, which was truly terrifying!
Shu Ping used his analytical gaze to examine Xiao Qing.
The information displayed in the skill list left him momentarily stunned:
[Super-tier External Incarnation (Proficient)]
[Super-tier Green Overflowing Wilderness (Proficient)]
Indeed, the cultivation of Green Overflowing Wilderness not only resulted in a direct advancement to the Proficient level after success but also caused the unchangeable super-tier Hall Level skill, External Incarnation, to advance by one level!
But there was more.
Before Shu Ping could examine the capabilities of Green Overflowing Wilderness, Xiao Qing's aura became unstable, and the next moment, a more intense light burst forth.
The surging energy made Shu Ping understand the meaning of this light; Xiao Qing, under such nurturing, was finally about to break through to the Emperor level!
