131: hydrophilic plants
"What kind of Skill is that?"
"It looks a bit like a Rock-attribute Stone Giant."
"That's clearly a Giant controlled by the Vine Whip. It has nothing to do with the Rock attribute. But how is it being held together? I don't understand."
There were still many people in the audience who understood Skills, but they also didn't know how the Ghost Orchid used the Vine Whip to stabilize the loose soil.
"Ghost Orchid contestant... it, it actually used vines and dirt to create a Giant!"
In Phantom Cat's Exclusive Sofa Area, Xiao Hei's tiny paws holding the glow stick froze in mid-air, its mouth forming an "O."
"Meow..." (So amazing...)
Big Sister Xiao Lan actually recreated the abilities of a Game Character.
Doesn't that mean she can sculpt Figurines for herself later?
Hehe, that's great.
Phantom Snow quietly glanced at her own chubby little paws, feeling an unprecedented sense of urgency well up in her heart.
Although she had clearly become stronger, she still felt inferior to Senior Xiao Lan.
No, she must double her training after returning.
On the field, Wang Teng was the quickest to react.
After the initial shock, he immediately judged that although the "Mudrock Giant" had a terrifying Aura, it was essentially just an aggregate of vines and dirt.
Its defense could definitely not be compared to a genuine Rock-type Demonic Beast.
"Bluffing."
Wang Teng calmly looked at the Giant: "Azure Sea Flood Dragon, don't be fooled by its appearance! Continue the charge! Smash it!"
"Roar!"
The Azure Sea Flood Dragon's external energy transformed into a roaring blue Dragon, continuing its charge toward Xiao Lan.
Xiao Lan controlled the Giant, raising its thick arms, which were twisted together from vines, and crossing them over its chest.
The Mudrock Giant's arms collided solidly with the Azure Sea Flood Dragon's head.
The impact force materialized into visible white air waves.
The Mudrock Giant's feet sank deeply into the ground. The vines on the impacted arms snapped, and dirt and gravel scattered, leaving a significant indentation.
Xiao Lan didn't mind; as long as there was enough energy, this thing could be generated continuously.
The Azure Sea Flood Dragon was also sent flying backward by the massive recoil, tumbling several times in mid-air before landing awkwardly back into the pool.
Several clear cracks appeared on the azure-blue scales on its head, with traces of fresh blood seeping out.
It had suffered a considerable loss in the head-on clash just now.
It shook its slightly dizzy head, its ice-blue Dragon pupils staring suspiciously at the Mudrock Giant.
How is that possible?
How could mere dirt and vines possess such hardness?
"It blocked it! The Plant Giant actually stopped the Azure Sea Flood Dragon's Dragon Charge head-on."
The Commentator, who knows when, had brought out several broadcasting-type Mechanical Demonic Beasts, causing the noise inside the arena to rise again.
"The two sides are evenly matched!"
Wang Teng's expression changed repeatedly. He knew very well that the collision just now was far from evenly matched.
The Azure Sea Flood Dragon was injured, but the Ghost Orchid inside the Mudrock Giant was completely unharmed, aside from some energy depletion.
There seemed to be something inside the vines and dirt... Wang Teng squinted and vaguely saw tiny green Energy Bats rapidly repairing the damage in the Giant's injured areas, besides the vines and dirt.
At the broken parts of the vines, some peculiar dust was scattered.
Those things reinforced the Giant's structure.
"Azure Sea Flood Dragon, don't clash with it head-on!"
This Skill is too strange; it cannot be judged by common sense.
"Use a Water Tornado, and add Ice Seal!"
Since physical impact was ineffective, they needed to use area-of-effect attacks.
The Azure Sea Flood Dragon understood immediately and quickly began circling in the pool.
Centering around it, the pool formed a massive whirlpool over a hundred meters in diameter.
As it spun, a terrifying Water Tornado connecting heaven and earth shot up from the whirlpool.
Countless sharp Ice Cones were mixed into the core.
The temperature of the entire stadium suddenly dropped, and a thin layer of ice even formed on the edge of the pool.
"It's Wang Teng's Azure Sea Flood Dragon's signature Skill, Ice Seal Water Tornado!"
The Mudrock Giant advanced instead of retreating, taking heavy steps and actively moving towards it.
Just as the two were about to make contact, the Plant Giant's arms, made of vines, suddenly dissolved into even smaller vines.
They transformed into a Massive Green Net covering the sky and earth, enveloping the Ice Seal Water Tornado.
Chii! Chii! Chii!
The vines pierced into the Water Tornado.
The Operation Room where Xiao Lan was located was slowly being covered by ice.
After the vines pierced the Water Tornado, the size of the Water Tornado was actually shrinking slowly.
"It's absorbing the Water Tornado's energy!"
Wang Teng felt his brain wasn't functioning fast enough.
"What kind of joke is this? How can a Grass-type Demonic Beast absorb Water-type and Ice-type Skills?"
Bai Ye, however, looked very calm watching the live broadcast. Of course, he knew how Xiao Lan did it.
It wasn't exactly energy absorption.
After extensive training, Xiao Lan's Vine Whip internal structure could become sponge-like, filled with countless fine pores.
And the Fragrant Pollen possesses extremely strong affinity and adsorption properties.
When the Vine Whip pierced the Water Tornado, countless pollen particles instantly adsorbed the moisture, which was then stored by the porous structure inside the Vine Whip.
It would then be expelled by squeezing.
This was essentially a physical process, like a sponge absorbing water.
I have to say, Xiao Lan's ingenuity is far superior to mine, her Beast Tamer. The Skills she develops are so imaginative that even I am amazed.
If he didn't intervene, it might be able to evolve to the next stage using only its Skills, without needing any resources.
On the field, the wildly violent Ice Seal Water Tornado visibly shrank under the absorption of the vines.
In just over ten seconds, the Ice Seal Water Tornado was forcibly "drunk" dry by the Plant Giant!
The water-saturated Plant Giant's body size swelled up again.
The vines on its body became thicker, and a faint layer of Blue Ice Crystals even appeared on the surface.
A small stream of white cold air erupted from its body.
Wang Teng took a deep breath, a smile mixed with bitterness and fanaticism appearing on his face.
What a pity that the opponent's Beast Tamer wasn't present today; he couldn't witness the terrifying power the Ghost Orchid could unleash under a Beast Tamer's command.
But this is also good.
At least... it's much better than being instantly killed!
"Azure Sea Flood Dragon, it seems we can't win without going all out."
"Beast Taming Talent: Dragon Blood Boiling!"
Wang Teng directly tore off his upper body clothing, exposing his toned muscles to the air.
His Beast Taming Talent took effect on the Azure Sea Flood Dragon.
The Azure Sea Flood Dragon roared toward the sky, its Dragon Clan Bloodline continuously boiling under the stimulation of the Beast Tamer Talent.
The Rank barrier of the Transcendent Limit was forcibly broken through.
Boom!
The Elite Rank pressure erupted from the Azure Sea Flood Dragon, sweeping across the entire arena.
Although it was only temporary, the combat power difference between it and the Extraordinary Level was already immense.
