“Qiuqiu, let’s go check out the fourth floor,” Lin Su’s face brightened with a smile, “Your Frost Storm has improved by another hundred training sessions, and your stamina has already recovered. Let’s see who our opponent is on the fourth floor. Even if we can’t beat them, it’s okay.”
“Mew! (๑ŏωŏ๑)” (Okay!)
Lin Su’s face showed even more anticipation. The Snow Trace they encountered on the third floor already had all Talent Skills at Grade II, so what about the fourth floor?
Could there be Grade III skills?
With that thought in mind, Lin Su didn’t hesitate to take Qiuqiu to the fourth floor.
The scenery around them shifted rapidly. This time, instead of a snowfield, a dense, lush forest appeared, with giant trees whose girth took several people to encircle rising up into the sky. Weak light filtered through the huge canopy above, leaving speckled patches of light on the ground.
The scene isn’t a snowfield anymore?
Then the opponent that appears shouldn’t be Snow Trace, right?
While thinking this, Lin Su swiftly saw a glimmer of light ahead, and the figure of a strange beast emerged.
The creature had a humanoid body, but its two legs were rooted in the soil like the root system of a plant. Dangling from the top of its head were several vines that carried a gloomy duskiness, with faint purple mist winding around them.
Dusk Vine.
This was a high-level elite race of beast rarely seen within the Flame Yellow Safety Alliance, but quite common in the neighboring Holy Security Alliance. In the Godly Martial World, this creature had no regional divisions; many areas where forest creatures gathered might have it.
Dusk Vine was a wood-related beast, and the forest scene was its home field advantage.
It had only two skills—the core skill Entanglement and the non-core skill Poison Gas.
“Quick battle! Keep Frost Eyes active at all times, watch out for entanglement, and quickly resolve the opponent with Frost Storm!” After introducing the beast’s features through Telepathy, Lin Su quickly issued the command.
And just as Lin Su gave the command, the Dusk Vine made its move.
In an instant, countless vines burst through the soil, binding towards Qiuqiu from all tricky angles, while the Dusk Vine’s dangling vines on its head shivered, and the dark purple mist instantly enveloped in the direction of Qiuqiu.
“Dodge it! Frost Storm! Blow away the Poison Gas!” Lin Su rapidly gave another command.
The hint of frost in Qiuqiu’s eyes flashed by, and the encroaching vines seemed to slow in its sight. Snow Blow formed a large patch of Frost Snow at its feet, ice flowers blooming beneath it as it deftly dodged the vines’ assault.
At the same time, Qiuqiu skillfully swung its tail. The next moment, the storm whirled upward, blowing against the poison mist that enveloped the sky.
Facing Qiuqiu’s evasion, the vines paused slightly. Then, as if breaking, they suddenly changed direction and raced toward the spot where Qiuqiu landed, twisting and entangling in pursuit.
In the air, before the Frost Storm hit, the enveloping Poison Gas had already dispersed, only to regather with the dissipating storm and sweep toward Qiuqiu again.
Seeing this, Lin Su’s heart sank a little.
Both the vines and the Poison Gas are Grade II!
This level might be difficult to pass; although both skills are at the proficiency grade of Grade II, Qiuqiu is at a disadvantage fighting on foreign ground, and maintaining Snow Trace is tough.
The Dusk Vine had strong combat experience, even manipulating its vines to cover the icy environment created by Qiuqiu’s Snow Blow, greatly suppressing Qiuqiu.
And although Frost Eyes enhanced Qiuqiu’s vision, it was no longer useful as the impassable vines continuously compressed the space for movement.
Soon, Qiuqiu was completely bound by the vines, followed by the surging Poison Gas engulfing the sky.
Without any hesitation, Lin Su chose to give up on the tower challenge at the last moment.
This barrier was not something the current Qiuqiu could overcome.
At least, it had to learn Frost Resistance first.
Carrying Qiuqiu away from the Beast Tower, Lin Su turned and walked towards the Beast Taming Union.
To create a perfect grade energy liquid within seven days, it was useless to work alone. The mixing session yesterday afternoon had brought up some new issues, and he planned to take this opportunity to consult Mu Yuxing.
With guidance from this coronal-level certifier, his progress would be faster, and he would have greater confidence in creating a perfect grade energy liquid before the Certifier’s Grand Competition.
“Knock, knock, knock.” Arriving at the Vice President’s office, Lin Su politely knocked on the door and only entered after hearing a response from inside.
Seeing Mu Yuxing apparently busy with something, Lin Su felt a bit embarrassed in his heart.
Always bothering Mu Yuxing with his affairs seemed inconsiderate…
Well, it’s just for these few days. Let’s consider it as winning the championship in the Certifier’s Grand Competition, shining glory on the Union.
“You’re here?” Mu Yuxing casually closed the book that was upside down in front of him and set it aside, lifting his head to look at Lin Su, “What’s up?”
“Senior, I have some more questions about mixing I would like to consult you about.”
“Sure.” Mu Yuxing subtly retracted his tea-stained trouser leg under the table, “Go ahead.”
“Alright, here’s what I wanted to ask about…”
Quickly resolving all his questions with the help of Mu Yuxing, Lin Su closed his notebook, his face filled with gratitude, “Thank you, senior. I’ll head back now. Sorry for the disruption.”
Every conversation with Senior Mu was incredibly rewarding.
“No problem, come back next time you have questions,” Mu Yuxing said calmly, taking a sip of his tea.freёweɓnovel.com
