Chapter 62: Xiao Qing's Growth, Satisfying Experience! (Part 1)
Chapter 62: Xiao Qing's Growth, Satisfying Experience! (Part 1)
Early one morning, as Su Ping stepped out of the house, he was greeted by Xiao Qing's mournful whimpers.
It was evident that Su Ping's attention had been primarily focused on the little paper puppet over the past few days, neglecting the care of his genuine contracted beast.
Su Ping rubbed Xiao Qing's head and chuckled, "Xiao Qing, have you been training hard these past few days?"
"Woof!" (Xiao Qing... I'm trying my best!)
Xiao Qing seemed determined to prove herself, and to Su Ping's astonishment, her body began to slowly grow larger.
Su Ping was genuinely surprised.
Using his Truth Eye, he examined Xiao Qing closely.
Indeed, Xiao Qing's rank was still at the Common Seventh Rank, but under the scrutiny of the Truth Eye, a new skill had appeared in her skill set:
[Accelerated Growth (Beginner): Utilize Wood Elemental power to rapidly increase one's size and enhance corresponding strength.]
With this Accelerated Growth skill, Xiao Qing had now fully mastered all her racial skills.
Additionally, she had acquired the Poisoned Heart of Wood skill.
Su Ping's spirits lifted at this realization.
He rubbed Xiao Qing's head, who had felt neglected due to his recent preoccupation, and smiled, "Good, perfect timing. Today, let's continue with your Toxic Attribute cultivation!"
"Woof!"
Xiao Qing's spirits lifted instantly, her ears perking up.
Her newfound determination was a far cry from her earlier pitiful demeanor.
Su Ping chuckled and scolded, "You rascal! Come with me."
Since they were still using Toxic Resources for cultivation, and Xiao Qing had shown no adverse reactions to them so far, Su Ping remained cautious. He led Xiao Qing to the medical room, skillfully aimed the life detection device at her, and then took out another Toxic Resource.
Initially, Su Ping had purchased four types of Toxic Resources: Heart Devouring Fruit, Wolf Poisoned Skullcap, Crimson Jasmine, and Demon Willow Leaf.
Among them, the Demon Willow Leaf was an Elite-grade Toxic Resource and the leaf of the Toxic Plant-type beast known as the Demon Willow Tree.
It was incredibly poisonous.
It couldn't be used casually.
The Wolf Poisoned Skullcap and Heart Devouring Fruit had already been administered to Xiao Qing, leaving only the Crimson Jasmine.
Even Su Ping, who witnessed it firsthand, couldn't help but marvel at how the most toxic things were also the most beautiful. This was true for Xiao Qing and even more so for the Crimson Jasmine.
The scarlet petals resembled a stunningly beautiful flower adorned in a crimson bridal gown.
The water droplets on its surface resembled fresh blood dripping from its petals.
This plant, aside from the Demon Willow Leaf, was the most toxic.
If Xiao Qing hadn't developed complete immunity to the Wolf Poisoned Skullcap and Heart Devouring Fruit, Su Ping wouldn't dare administer this to her casually.
However, Xiao Qing was already familiar with this process. She opened her mouth wide:
"Woof!"
"Hmm? You want to swallow it all at once? Are you confident?"
"Woof!"
Xiao Qing's confident and determined response left Su Ping with no doubts. She was his family and partner, and if they were to face battles in the future, she would be his most crucial ally. In this situation, he couldn't afford to doubt her.
So, unlike before, Su Ping didn't cut the plant into pieces. Instead, he handed Xiao Qing the entire Crimson Jasmine, soaked in what resembled fresh blood, and she swallowed it whole.
Xiao Qing wanted to prove that she wasn't inferior to the paper puppet that had recently captured her master's attention.
She quickly devoured the plant and then lay down on the table.
And soon, Xiao Qing began to undergo a transformation.
The crimson jasmine, indeed, lived up to its reputation as the most potent Toxic Resource below the Elite Rank.
In just a few minutes, wisps of power rippled across Xiao Qing's body.
The next moment, this power seemed to reach a pinnacle, and then it burst forth! A feedback force transmitted through the soul bond.
Xiao Qing's level breakthrough, like Su Ping's, reached the Ordinary Eighth Stage.
The speed of improvement was faster than that of the little one at the beginning.
After all, the little one was only at the Common Seventh Rank.
Moreover, this feedback force enhanced Su Ping's mental power significantly.
Just a few days ago, he had barely crossed the threshold of the Ordinary Eighth Stage, and now it was shaking again.
This situation excited Su Ping, but what he didn't expect was that the next second, brilliant specks of light appeared on Xiao Qing's body.
These specks were like fireflies, and Su Ping was very familiar with them, as they were similar to the light that had appeared when Mutou's Wood Spirit Heart broke through.
However, Xiao Qing and Mutou were different.
Mutou's light was bright and dazzling, while Xiao Qing's flickering light was deeper and more subtle, and there seemed to be a faint mist surrounding her.
It was like a shadow plague wolf hidden in the dark green clouds.
This was...
The Truth Eye instantly focused, and as expected, on Xiao Qing's skill, the mutated skill [Poisoned Heartwood] had changed from its initial Beginner level to its current Proficient level:
[Mutated Poisoned Heartwood (Proficient): A special mutated skill, merging the changes of the Toxic and Wood Spirit Hearts, resulting in improved effects, power, and casting time for Toxic and Wood Spirit skills.
It can also absorb plant essence to restore itself and consume Toxic Resources to accelerate its realm advancement.]
The Poisoned Heartwood, now at the Proficient level, appeared unchanged.
However, from the faint green mist emanating from Xiao Qing's breath, it was evident that her grasp of Toxic skills and the potency of her poison had improved.
Moreover, it was likely a qualitative leap compared to before! Yet, as Su Ping watched Xiao Qing slowly stand up, his expression stirred, and as expected, with Xiao Qing's breakthrough, the Wanling Tu Lu in his mind slowly flipped open once more.
A new log entry appeared in the Wolf Spirit Book:
[Toxic Mutant Bloodline Beast's Toxic development has improved.]
[Further analysis of the Toxic Mutant Wolf's mutation cause is available. Consume 47,000 experience points from this Tu Lu to forcefully analyze the Wolf's Toxic Bloodline mutation cause and obtain the mutation cultivation method.]
[The Wolf's Toxic mutated skill, Poisoned Heartwood, has improved. The Wolf Spirit Book can be referenced for further Toxic development, earning an additional 200 experience points.]
The first two entries were acceptable, but the experience required for this analysis was significantly less than the previous analysis of the Wolf's Toxic mutation cause.
However, the improvement of the Poisoned Heartwood skill actually earned experience points? More importantly, these experience points, though not many, were the final piece of the puzzle!
Because with these two hundred experience points, his Wolf Spirit Book experience exceeded 1,700 points.
In other words, the Thousand Wood Wolf's evolution could finally be perfected using the Wanling Tu Lu! Could he finally master a complete evolution channel?
