188: King Training Program
There was no other way; he could only use it on other Skills.
【Chewing Enhancement】
「Mystic form ①: Devour the World」
【Mystic form Training】:
Through the 【Chewing Enhancement】 Skill, consume Wind-type materials × 999, Fire-type materials × 999, Water-type materials × 999, Wood-type materials × 999, Ice-type materials × 999, and Earth-type materials × 999.
After proficiently devouring, greatly enhance spiritual energy digestion ability.
【Mystic form Introduction】:
This pet possesses the potential to devour the heavens. Within a short period, it can absorb spiritual energy from several miles around into its belly and digest it, permanently increasing its own 【Energy Value】.
「Mystic form ②: Soul Bite」
【Mystic form Training】:
Through the 【Chewing Enhancement】 ability, after absorbing Ghost-type materials × 9999, become proficient in the sensation of biting, strengthening one’s own soul ability.
【Mystic form Introduction】:
This pet possesses outstanding soul ability. Even if it does not have the Ghost attribute itself, the damage it inflicts on other pets can still carry soul damage, and it can apply a biting effect to the opponent, continuously causing pain...
He could indeed clearly observe the so-called “Mystic form,” but in reality, it wasn't as abnormal as he had imagined.
This form was more like a choice of cultivation direction after reaching the Monarch Tier, because before this, most “Mystic forms” were basically carefully selected and tailored by Li Wen himself for those pets.
If there were only one or two pets, it would be fine, but if there were many, and he always had to rely on Li Wen to design them himself, even with the solid foundational knowledge provided by the system, he would probably find it difficult to cope.
Fortunately, once Grandmaster proficiency was reached, various mechanisms in different directions would appear, and the timing was just right.
If this mechanism appeared too early, some potential development directions of the pet itself might be wasted.
But by the Grandmaster Tier, the relevant Skills were already basically perfected and in a bottleneck state.
Therefore, such a mechanism was not only very suitable for the Skill itself but also beneficial for the overall cultivation plan of the pet.
However, on the other hand.
Taking Qing Yan's 【Chewing Enhancement】 as an example, Li Wen believed that the two good directions seemed to have an astonishingly high resource consumption, almost to an exaggerated degree.
Whether it was the soul damage brought by the mysterious and powerful “Soul Bite” Skill, which could cause equally severe damage to various attributes without distinction.
This attack method, which ignored attribute differences and treated all equally, made it impossible for enemies to guard against it.
Or the ability of “Devour the World,” which could not only swallow vast amounts of spiritual energy but also permanently increase the pet's own 【Energy Value】.
Such a miraculous effect was simply heaven-defying!
For Qing Yan, such an ability perfectly matched his Mystic form, as if it were specially tailored for him by heaven.
However, when Li Wen saw the prominent × 999 and × 9999 notations, his heart skipped a beat, genuinely startled.
The enormous resource demands represented by these numbers forced him to temporarily hold back. Although unwilling, he had no choice but to bow to money.
After careful consideration, Li Wen decided to temporarily abandon these two seemingly tempting Mystic forms and explore other options first.
However, the powerful effects of those two Mystic forms attracted him like magnets, making it difficult for him to give them up.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Li Wen's mind like lightning—the training clearly specified the required resources, but it didn't specifically define the level and type of resources!
And thinking about it carefully, the Insect Silk Qing Yan spit out could actually be considered a resource, just of a relatively lower grade.
If he could cleverly use this point, he might really be able to unlock these two coveted Mystic forms!
Thinking of this, Li Wen couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Although this approach was somewhat akin to “self-production and self-consumption,” what did it matter?
What was important was whether the goal could ultimately be achieved.
As for the matter of mental preparation, let Qing Yan worry about that himself!
...After a slight attempt, something surprising happened—this method actually worked!
Its essence was not complicated; it was probably about relying on a large amount of eating to create a state of incomplete digestion.
In this way, the various series of energies accumulated within Qing Yan's body would naturally separate from each other and gradually gather together, eventually forming groups of energy that had not been completely digested.
The appearance of these energy groups provided excellent conditions for devouring energy and accelerating their absorption.
To use a simple analogy, this is like our daily garbage sorting work.
All kinds of garbage have their most suitable processing methods. If all the garbage is collected together in one go, then a lot of time and effort will be needed for tedious sorting work before subsequent processing at the waste station.
Undoubtedly, such an operational process greatly limited the speed of the entire processing progress.
However, if the garbage sorting work can be done in advance, and a dedicated and fixed garbage can is prepared for each type of garbage.
Then, everyone only needs to complete a small amount of sorting operations when disposing of garbage.
This will neither cause too much burden on everyone nor significantly improve overall efficiency, and the improvement in speed is naturally obvious and goes without saying.
Therefore, those undigested energy groups formed within Qing Yan's body are like dedicated garbage cans, which can very conveniently help various types of energy complete effective sorting and organization.
After confirming the feasibility of the Insect Silk, the stone in Li Wen's heart finally fell, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, then confidently began to try various other strange things.
First were the nutrient fruits; then the star peaches, shaped like peaches; and finally, the elemental fruits containing elemental power.
As expected, his previous conjecture was perfectly confirmed!
Even more surprising was that the most crucial “one” among these materials was calculated based on Insect Silk.
Whether it was the nutrient fruits that provided ample nourishment, the charming star peaches, or the elemental fruits filled with mysterious elemental power, the energy accumulation contained in each of them showed significant differences.
If these materials were to be ranked according to their quality, elemental fruits would undoubtedly take the top spot without question.
They not only allowed the energy groups to increase the most in volume but also offered the most abundant and diverse attribute types to choose from.
In contrast, the other two resources—nutrient fruits and star peaches—while also increasing the energy group volume considerably, had extremely singular attributes, only able to increase a single Wood attribute.
Faced with such a marvelous discovery, Li Wen couldn't help but once again express his heartfeltemotion.
“Plagiarizing the teacher's intellectual achievements, this feeling is truly exhilarating! It's hard to imagine how he managed to research such a magically intricate little gadget!”
