Chapter 9: Old Sha's Breakthrough! Poisonous Vine Strangulation!
Chapter 9: Old Sha's Breakthrough! Poisonous Vine Strangulation!
Before Su Ping could react, he found himself once again being pounced upon by the soft grass beneath him.
Then, a wet tongue began to lick him.
Old Sha, who had just been fearless in the face of death, now showed no trace of that demeanor.
Hmph, beast.
Wiping off the sticky saliva from Old Sha's licks with disgust, Su Ping once again used True Eye to examine the excited and uncontrollable Old Sha:
【Wild Forest Wolf】
【Current Level: Leader Rank 2】
【Beast Potential: Elite Rank 10】
【Skills: Sunlight Absorption (Perfect), Vine Strangulation (Proficient), Self-Healing (Skilled), Accelerated Growth (Proficient), Wolf King (Beginner), Heart of Wood (Beginner)】
【Heart of Wood (Beginner): Slightly enhances Wood-type abilities' power, effect, and casting speed, and can absorb Wood-type energy to quickly recover.】
As expected!
Excitement shone in Su Ping's eyes.
Not only had Old Sha gained the 'Heart of Wood' skill, but his level had also increased by one rank!
Was it the addition of Wolf Tobacco that caused this magical chemical reaction with the Heart of Wood potion?
Su Ping's limited knowledge of breeding principles from school couldn't explain this phenomenon.
However, he understood the significance of this scene.
To put it bluntly, the price of an ordinary Forest Wolf cub would be at most 800,000 to 1.2 million.
But with the Heart of Wood awakening, the price of a Forest Wolf could increase three to fivefold! If the wolf had good aptitude and diligently practiced skills, its skill proficiency would rise quickly, potentially making it even more valuable.
It might even rival some lower-ranked Overlord-rank talent beast cubs.
The Heart of Wood skill was incredibly powerful.
Skills that enhance corresponding elemental powers, though not considered super-tier, are often more practical as passive abilities than some super-tier skills!
Even at the beginner level, with the support of the Heart of Wood, Old Sha's strength had increased by three to fivefold compared to before.
If fighting in forests, mountains, or grasslands, the effect would be even more terrifying!
However, precisely because of this terror, skills like the Heart of Wood are extremely rare and challenging to obtain.
But now, with the help of the Book of Ten Spirits, the original Heart of Wood potion, with just one additional ingredient, had produced such a transformative effect.
Su Ping's eyes burned with excitement, but at that moment, a new prompt appeared on the Book of Ten Spirits, below the only illuminated Forest Wolf entry in the log records:
【Successfully granted the associated beast the skill: Heart of Wood, and its rank increased, Bestiary Experience +30 points!】
Su Ping was taken aback and glanced at the illuminated bestiary entry for the Forest Wolf:
【Bestiary: Forest Wolf】
【A special wolf species skilled in using Wood-type abilities, with exceptionally high vitality. Typical adult Forest Wolves are Elite Rank and proficient in skills such as Sunlight Absorption, Vine Strangulation, Self-Healing, and Accelerated Growth.】
【Current Bestiary Level: 1 (152/500)】
The experience had reached 152 points.
If not for the 285 points used to perfect the Heart of Wood potion recipe earlier, it would only take a little over a hundred more points to reach Bestiary Level 2!
Seeing this, it seemed like increasing the bestiary level wasn't that difficult! However...
Su Ping's gaze quickly moved past Old Sha and towards the other Forest Wolves, noticing that their tails were wagging vigorously. He immediately understood.
(End of Chapter)Seeing these little guys improve and enhance their abilities, and doing so while lying down, would undoubtedly increase their bonding significantly.
At that moment, Su Ping made up his mind!
Continue refining potions!
But before that, he wanted to see the changes in Old Sha!
"Old Sha, launch the Vine Strangulation at that tree!"
Old Sha's green eyes suddenly lit up with excitement. In its dreams, it never imagined that even Su Ping's grandfather couldn't accomplish this, and Su An Yong directly gave up.
Miraculously, it was achieved by Su Ping!
It knew that the young master it had watched grow up would not harm it! Old Sha's gaze focused on the massive tree in the forest.
The next moment, countless dark green branches and vines burst out of the ground or condensed in mid-air.
Instantly, they entangled the giant tree as if it were an imaginary enemy.
The vines were as thick as a bowl, extremely tough, and even had a metallic sheen.
As the vines continued to wrap around and tighten, Su Ping quickly noticed that sharp thorns appeared on them, significantly increasing their power.
With just a slight entanglement, the thick trunk of the towering tree in his small forest showed deep gashes as if cut by a saw.
The speed of the attack and the power of the vines were far superior to before!
Even a Leader Rank opponent of the same level, if caught in such a web of strangling vines, would be drained of blood in an instant, their body torn as if by a thousand cuts.
Even Su Ping couldn't help but gasp in shock.
The little Qing in his arms, who had been quiet until now, suddenly became alert.
She stared intently at the entangled vines, as if suddenly understanding something.
Speaking of which, after Qing formed a contract with Su Ping, she quickly advanced to Common Tier 2 in just one day, which wasn't a slow pace. But currently, she only had the basic skill of the Forest Wolf, Sunlight Absorption.
Through sunbathing, she could reduce her food requirements and consumption while growing rapidly.
However, she still lacked combat abilities.
Su Ping wasn't initially in a hurry, but now, seeing this situation, it seemed a bit different?
As expected, Qing lightly leaped out of his arms and landed in front of him. Then, she opened her mouth slightly and let out a very tender howl:
"Woo woo woo..."
The next moment, several slender vines, as thin as yarn, burst out of the ground!
However, there was a slight difference; these vines, in addition to being slender, had a slightly different color, with a hint of purple.
Su Ping looked at his companion beast in disbelief.
Had she already grasped it?
Most Forest Wolves learn their racial skills during their growth.
Vine Strangulation is the primary combat method of the Forest Wolf, so it's natural for them to learn it.
But the talent of a companion beast lies in how quickly they can learn and master skills.
Like yesterday, in that classmate group.
Class President Zhou Shuchen proudly mentioned that his newly contracted Crimson Fang Tiger had mastered one of its primary combat skills in just half a month.
That was already quite impressive.
But how did his little Qing learn this Vine Strangulation just by watching Old Sha use it once?
Su Ping, feeling it was unbelievable, used his True Sight to examine his companion beast:
【Mutant Forest Wolf (Contracted)】
【Attributes: Wood, Toxic】
【Current Level: Common Tier 2】
【Racial Potential: Elite Rank 10】
