1826 Transform Spirit Strong Defense
When Lin Yuan was evolving the Wailing Snake, the latter was already smart enough to speak continuously, thanking him.
While Lin Yuan was nurturing the Wailing Snake, he instinctively checked its gender.
He tried stopping the small female snake from thanking him multiple times, but it still continued doing so.
This made Lin Yuan think in frustration, This little female snake is too polite!The Bronze Wailing Snake was almost 12 meters long, and its four wings had a 10-meter wingspan.
Given its size, it could well be considered a giant fey.
Lin Yuan estimated that it would grow to at least 1,000 meters once it reached Diamond/Fantasy.
Lin Yuan found it hard to swallow that such a gargantuan creature was thanking him in a child-like voice and acting coquettishly toward him.
When the Wailing Snake reached Bronze grade, three exclusive skills appeared. Lin Yuan checked on all of them.
[Mountain Water Molded Body]: The ground and water within the Wailing Snake’s control will become nutrients. By sacrificing the ground and water, the Wailing Snake’s power will be increased, and its physical body will be strengthened.
Lin Yuan immediately knew that Mountain Water Molded Body would allow the Wailing Snake to roll grades and do combat.If the Wailing Snake was a power offense-type fey, Mountain Water Molded Body would be the best choice of exclusive skill. It would allow the Wailing Snake to sacrifice the territory under its control when it was in danger so it could transfer the energy from the territory to itself.
It was rare for feys to be able to temper their bodies. This was even more so for stronger feys.
No matter how strong the Wailing Snake became, Mountain Water Molded Body would allow it to continue strengthening its body.
As the Wailing Snake continued to take control of earth and water to temper itself, it would strengthen its body to the point that it would become much physically stronger than other feys of the same grade.
However, Mountain Water Molded Body did not complement Draining Lake Water River and Training Earth Into Pearls which were strategic abilities that would help Lin Yuan with his development in the marsh world.
Moreover, Mountain Water Molded Body could end up counterproductive to his plans.
Once the Wailing Snake sacrificed the ground and water under its control, all the plant-type feys that grew on the ground would die immediately.
Lin Yuan could feed top-grade marsh soil to the Wailing Snake so that it could use Training Earth Into Pearls.
However, the low-grade marsh soil that was discovered would be buried beneath the territory to benefit the growth of the plants.
Once the Wailing Snake used Mountain Water Molded Body, its power would be raised significantly. However, it would cause the marsh soil in the ground to be sacrificed. This would be a huge loss.
In terms of combat, Lin Yuan had situated White Speak, the Kill Food Sky Butterfly, and Shadow within the marsh world. There was no need for the Wailing Snake to participate at all.
Thus, Lin Yuan moved on to the second exclusive skill.
[Double Head Mutual Kill]: The Wailing Snake can use its bloodline to curse a target. Its two heads will start attacking each other. When the Wailing Snake sustains damage, the damage can be transferred to the cursed target.
Lin Yuan was rendered speechless when he saw this exclusive skill.
Firstly, the Wailing Snake could not be considered a power offense-type fey.
Both the Fiery Sky Hou’s Normal and Elite abilities were meant for power offense-type feys. As such, it could be classified as a power offense-type fey.
There was no need for the Wailing Snake to have combat ability, much less develop a new combat style.
The only outstanding part of the second exclusive skill was that it would enable the Wailing Snake to use its bloodline to curse a target.
With Lin Yuan providing water- and earth-type heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls as well as pure elemental energy from the Element Well, there was no doubt that the Wailing Snake’s bloodline would be mighty.
But the method of hurting itself to curse the opponent, essentially taking the opponent on in a stamina battle of vitality, was terrible.
Any external party could interrupt the two feys while they were clashing against each other.
Moreover, there were things like the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen that could relieve the curses’ effects.
Both Wang Fuxiang and Zong Ze had received the benefits of the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen.
The Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen would also be useful against Double Head Mutual Kill.
Lin Yuan could not be certain if other spiritual ingredients or fey abilities would also be able to limit and counter curses.
Normally, any abilities that could be limited or countered by opponents or external factors would not be a good choice.
If Lin Yuan had to choose between Mountain Water Molded Body and Double Head Mutual Kill, he preferred Mountain Water Molded Body.
If it had no choice but to choose this ability, the Wailing Snake could just avoid using this ability in the marsh world. It was still better than a useless curse ability.
Lin Yuan had no choice but to place his hopes in the Wailing Snake’s third possible exclusive skill.
When he saw the third exclusive skill, a smile spread across Lin Yuan’s face.
[Transform Spirit Strong Defense]: By increasing the area of ground and water that it controls, it can sacrifice its combat ability and turn into the protector of the land. It will become an all-knowing master of that land.
Lin Yuan was already interested in the aspect of Transform Spirit Strong Defense that allowed the Wailing Snake to increase the area of water and land it controlled.
The larger the area of his territory in the marsh world, the better.
Lin Yuan could not be certain how much Transform Spirit Strong Defense could increase the area of water and ground the Wailing Snake controlled.
But the larger the area, the more benefits Lin Yuan would receive.
Moreover, Transform Spirit Strong Defense would allow the Wailing Snake to become the protector of the land and know the minute details of exactly what happened on the land.
Once the Wailing Snake became the protector of the land, it would be able to appear anywhere on the land. It would be easy for it to handle any issues that took place within the land.
Although White Speak’s territory was right outside Lin Yuan’s territory, White Speak could not guarantee that no powerful dimensional lifeform would break through its territory to invade Lin Yuan’s territory.
