Chapter 130 Chapter 130
Although not as powerful as 'Deprivation', 'Exchange' is also a very rare trait. In a way, the characteristics of brutally taking away certain characteristics from the opponent or forcibly exchanging injury status are indeed very similar.
Moreover, the Swordtail Tiger had never seen the true power of 'deprivation'.
It took the dark blue power core and sensed the strange fluctuations within it—as if it could instantly achieve a completely different state with just a thought, or even rob the enemy of their vitality...
That’s accurate, thought the sword-tailed tiger.
It opened its bloody mouth, endured the severe pain all over its body, and swallowed the blue light into its stomach.
Energy transformed into a stream of icy water, snaking through the body like a venomous snake, causing intense discomfort wherever it passed. However, due to the void left by the deprivation of its special abilities, the new power quickly merged into its meridians, gradually converging into a blue point of light, condensing on the crystal on the sword-tailed tiger's forehead.
The crystal shimmered and gradually began to emit a light blue halo, as if it was wearing a beautiful sapphire.
However, the edge of the gem is a bit gray, as if it has faded, and it looks like a small gem has been forced into a larger outline, and it doesn't fit very well.
You can tell at first glance that it's not original.
The sword-tailed tiger's eyes darkened slightly, and the mysterious energy around it was surging.
Just as it was about to try out its newfound ability, the shadowy figure on the opposite side immediately stopped it: "Buzz!"
[No, you've just integrated your new trait. You need to wait at least two months for the new ability to adapt to your body before you can activate it. For your plan to proceed smoothly, you must not use your trait during this period.]
"And Lord White Tiger, with all due respect, my ability to 'deprive' doesn't quite fit with yours."
[You can probably only activate this once before your spirit core shatters and you lose your unique characteristics forever, both Deprivation and your original Space...]
The shadow paused for a moment, and asked tentatively:
[Do you still want to stick with your original plan? Is it really worth it for you?]
The sword-tailed tiger glanced at it disdainfully, and snorted coldly through its teeth: "Ouch!"
[Nonsense, it's not your turn to question our determination! ]
The black shadow was silent for a moment and sighed softly.
"Buzz."
"Alright, sir. I admire your determination. In that case, I will also begin implementing the next step of my plan..."
The wind and snow were very strong and the distance was far. The voices of the two mysterious beasts were very low, and the few words they spoke floated on the wind and fell into the ears of Lord Feng Luo who was perked up.
It told Xia Muqing these fragmented information through the contract. Xia Muqing frowned repeatedly after hearing it: "It fits... worth it..."
No, I don't understand this at all.
The words were too trivial, and she could only roughly guess what the two mysterious beasts in front were planning, but the specific content of the plan and the use of the characteristics of the blue parrot fighting bird were all a mess.
Xia Muqing was still thinking hard, but the blue parrot fighting bird next to her could no longer sit still.
It sensed the fluctuations of its own characteristics appearing and disappearing, and the crystal on the sword-tailed tiger's forehead turned blue out of thin air - does it matter whether it can hear it clearly or not, the facts are hitting it in the face!
Its characteristics were taken away by the black shadow and given to the big tiger!
The blue parrot fighting bird was so angry that it was shaking all over: "Chirp!"
Despicable! Shameless!
Don’t you two have any characteristics of your own? Stealing other people’s characteristics is too shameless!
Please return the characteristics back!
The blue parrot fighting bird has always been an arrogant person. At this moment, its brain suddenly short-circuited, its feathers stood up, and it rushed up regardless of anything.
Xia Muqing was quick to pull it off and pressed it firmly on Feng Luo Lord's back: "Shh, don't make a sound!"
"You're stupid! Those two up ahead are obviously bad beasts. Going out now would just mean you'll die in vain. We can't defeat any of them!"
The black shadow's identity and origin were unknown, and he possessed extremely dangerous and terrifying abilities, which was already frightening enough. The burly sword-tailed tiger opposite him practically had "Don't mess with me" written all over his face.
Look at the Blue Parrot Fighting Bird. It is a powerful second-level mysterious beast after all. But after being stripped of its characteristics, it looks half-dead and listless. If it weren't for Xiao Zi's life energy, it would have died by now.
The sword-tailed tiger can not only endure the pain of stripping off its characteristics, but also quickly digest and swallow the new characteristics. At this moment, it is talking to the black shadow calmly as if nothing happened - how strong is this guy?
Xia Muqing's heart was pounding, and she was on high alert. She held the blue parrot tightly to prevent it from making trouble.
But in the distance, the sword-tailed tiger suddenly turned its head, a gleam in its eyes: "Roar?"
Who's there?
Its sharp eyes were fixed on the big tree where Xia Muqing was hiding. Its pair of copper bell-like eyes were fierce and fierce, and its eyes seemed to have substance!
Xia Muqing was hiding dozens of meters away, but she felt as if needles were pricking her face.
She subconsciously activated her mental power, and Lord Fengluo also blocked in front of her, a deep roar coming out of his throat -
“Crash!”
A small snow pit suddenly opened up on the ground ahead.
A palm-sized mysterious beast emerged from the snow and shook the branches in fear.
It was a rose bud about to bloom, with vines supporting the bulging bud. It seemed to have been frozen in an ice pit for a long time, and the petals and leaves were covered with a layer of snow-white silver edges by the wind and snow.
It seemed to be frightened by the fierce murderous aura of the sword-tailed tiger. It huddled on the snow and trembled. The thin vine tried to cover the small tip of the flower bud: "Woo... Woo?"
Swordtail Tiger: “…”
The black shadow reacted quickly, and several long black lines were thrown out at a rapid speed. It grabbed the vine at the root of the small rose and pulled it in front of the sword-tailed tiger.
The little rose hung upside down in the air, swinging its vines restlessly. Sharp thorns grew on its thin branches. It subconsciously tried to pierce the shadow, but was quickly pricked by an even sharper needle. It retracted its branches and leaves in pain and hugged its bud tightly.
Seeing Little Rose, the sword-tailed tiger's ferocious attitude softened a little.
It lowered its head, put its nose close to the little rose and sniffed: "Oh?"
[So it's a mysterious beast. But just now, I seemed to smell the scent of humans... Little one, have you ever encountered humans?]
The little rose was like a socially anxious child, covering her bud and shaking her head vigorously.
The dark figure beside him whispered, "Buzz."
[Perhaps a human beastmaster passed through here not long ago. They are holding an event in District 7, so their presence is normal.]
The sword-tailed tiger snorted coldly, looking extremely disdainful.
Humans...are like insects, their numbers are increasing. Do they really regard this alternate dimension as their own backyard, and us as their slaves?
It waved its paws irritably and glanced at Little Rose: [Put this child down, don't scare it.]
[Wild Rose... Judging by her scent, she's a cub, probably just a few days old. You shouldn't be living in this part of the snow forest. Are you lost?]
The sword-tailed tiger's attitude towards the young mysterious beast was a world apart from its earlier reference to "humans." Its voice was gentle, and it even lowered its head in a friendly manner, trying to rub the fuzz on its cheek against the rose's bud to soothe its frightened heart.
Unfortunately, Little Rose doesn't think so.
It watched the "ferocious" face of the sword-tailed tiger enlarge before its eyes. Its first reaction was that the other party was going to eat it. It was so scared that tears came out of its eyes. It instinctively attacked the sword-tailed tiger. The flower bud opened slightly and sprayed out a stream of light yellow powder: "Woo woo woo!"
Skill, incense!
The most basic and common plant-based mysterious beast skill, which Wild Rose brought with her from her mother's womb, is also the only skill she currently possesses.
To a sword-tailed tiger, the force is about the same as a baby's sneeze.
The sword-tailed tiger didn't take the wild rose's fragrance seriously at all, but strangely, after the yellow powder was sprayed out, it seemed to be attracted by an invisible force and rushed to the other side.
Melted into the stripped-off gray energy core!
The next second, the ball of gray energy suddenly burst into a bright light, and the violent fluctuations startled both the black shadow and the sword-tailed tiger. In the distance, Lord Feng Luo also keenly sensed that after absorbing the yellow powder, the fluctuations in space had become even stronger!
The black shadow was surprised and delighted: "Buzz!"
[Master Baihu, this is truly a pleasant surprise! ]
[This little fellow can help us fill in the final piece of our plan—even though it's just a cub, its properties should be 'catalysis'!]
Swordtail Tiger: “……?”
The sword-tailed tiger was a little dazed.
Catalysis is a rare trait, but not entirely uncommon. Swordtail Tiger himself has seen at least three cubs with it. This trait can be applied to a specific object, such as a plant, allowing it to mature more fruit faster—similar to the function of a catalyst or amplifier.
However, the "catalytic" characteristic can often only work on specific things, and the mysterious beasts may not be able to find the object of their characteristics for a long time. In this case, the "catalytic" characteristic seems to be very useless.
And the mysterious beast cub in front of him actually used the catalytic property?
How could catalytic properties interfere with space?
No, it wasn't just an energy core containing the power of space. The sword-tailed tiger felt the energy within its body stirring, the blue characteristic power it had just swallowed flowing rapidly, as if it had seen something tonic.
unless……
The sword-tailed tiger thought of a possibility, a possibility that made it tremble in its heart and filled with ecstasy.
"roar?"
[Could it be that this little fellow's 'catalysis' characteristic is targeted at... the characteristics of a mysterious beast?]
…
In the distance, Xia Muqing also saw this scene.
She reacted quickly: "That yellow powder should be the 'Fragrance' skill. But it enhances the energy of the spatial system. Could it be a strengthening characteristic?"
"The alternate dimension is truly full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Even such a tiny wild rose has powerful auxiliary skills—wait, no!"
The enhanced spatial ability emitted a stronger light, causing the surrounding earth and mountains to tremble. The turbulence in the air became more intense, and tiny black cracks flickered and disappeared in the air.
The already weak space in the seventh district is becoming increasingly unbalanced under the influence of this force!
Xia Muqing gritted her teeth and pulled Feng Luo Jun: "No, Xiaofeng, let's take a detour!"
But before they could quietly retreat, the two mysterious beasts in front quickly reached an agreement.
Xia Muqing watched helplessly as the black shadow flew up, and black threads suddenly popped out from its body, turning into a torrent of mysterious power, slamming heavily into the gray energy ball!
The ball of energy was knocked away by it and slammed heavily into the hilly and mountainous area.
Immediately, all the mysterious beasts present heard a subtle "crackling" sound. The gray energy core was shattered on the spot under the impact.
"boom!!"
The force of space lost its restraints and erupted into a fierce energy storm!
It was like a lever, thrust hard into a huge rock full of cracks, and the already precarious spatial balance of the seventh district was finally on the verge of collapse under the leveraging of this force.
Deep rifts appeared between the areas that were already separated from each other, as if the darkness of the abyss was pouring out all at once, and large pieces of space debris fell from the sky, like chaotic snow, flashing with faint phosphorescence.
Xia Muqing: “……!”
Oh no!
