Bomb Fruit.
This is an advanced skill of the Wood Attribute, requiring a Spirit Beast to reach at least Tier 1 and condense an energy core within its body before it can learn it.
The principle of this skill is actually very simple: the Spirit Beast condenses the Wood Attribute energy within its body, then compresses it, compresses it forcefully, and finally, the quantitative change achieves a qualitative leap, causing the energy to materialize into the shape of a fruit, which is then thrown out to blow up the opponent's little darling.
The principle is that simple, but in practice, it is very troublesome and also carries a certain degree of danger.
The difficulties include, but are not limited to, energy absorption, channeling, compression, the degree of compression, the timing and accuracy of projection, and other factors.
Well, although monsters and Spirit Beasts that reach Tier 1 and possess the Wood Attribute or can use Wood Attribute energy can master this skill through learning and continuous practice, in reality, with the total amount of energy possessed by an ordinary Tier 1 Spirit Beast, they often cannot cast Fruit Bomb more than a few times before their internal energy is completely depleted.
Taking the average data of Flower Leaf Leaf, accumulated from Lin Xuédòng's 30 years of research, if no particularly precious energy recovery potions are used, and energy is naturally recovered solely through Photosynthesis, then a 15-level Flower Leaf Leaf can, on average, only cast Fruit Bomb three times in a 24-hour day; any more would affect Flower Leaf Leaf's healthy growth.
The most crucial point is that this skill is particularly dangerous during the learning process.
Especially when not proficient, it often happens that the energy is not suppressed, or the projection is not timely, leading to premature explosions and self-injury.
Because of this, what can be said about the Fruit Bomb skill?
Although it can be learned at Tier 1, Beast Masters often wait until their Spirit Beast reaches Tier 2 or even Tier 3 before allowing them to learn this skill. At the same time, when learning this skill, a large number of energy recovery potions and physical injury medicines, and other precious resources must be prepared in advance. Converted into star rock coins, it would cost at least 5 million and up.
The above describes a normal situation.
Since there are normal situations, there are naturally abnormal situations in this world, whether due to serendipitous encounters, exceptional comprehension, or even special resources or cultivation techniques from family inheritances.
Without mentioning anything else, the owner of the black fruit core material that Lin Chuan is currently playing with is an anomaly.
This black fruit core is merely a Tier 1 Spirit Beast material, yet it can inherit the Fruit Bomb skill!
This indicates that the Tier 1 Spirit Beast to which this black fruit core belonged naturally mastered the Fruit Bomb skill!
From a generally rational perspective, this is simply impossible: a wild Tier 1 Spirit Beast without a Beast Master mastering such a highly dangerous skill as Fruit Bomb!
Alright, that’s not important.
What’s important is that this incredibly powerful, dangerous, and extremely difficult skill is about to be mine!
Hehehehehehe~
Uh, it's going to be my Guoguo's! Same meaning!
Lin Chuan chuckled to himself, flicking the fruit core like a coin with his thumb, then gripping it firmly with a backhand, striking a cool pose.
To avoid being seen by others when he used his cheat, Lin Chuan returned to the backyard of the small villa.
There are thick, high walls blocking it, and surveillance equipment outside, so generally no one can casually break in. Even Lin Lao Deng would have to use the sole entrance, which Lin Chuan would notice.
Lin Chuan called Guoguo to his side.
It wasn't the first time receiving a skill inheritance, so it's not an overstatement to say it was experienced. Guoguo rubbed its little chubby hands with slight excitement, waving them up and down, looking as if it was ready, with an eager expression that seemed to say, 'Giegie, quickly take me on a grand adventure!'
Through the Beast Master contract, Lin Chuan clearly and fully perceived the excited and expectant emotions emanating from Guoguo.
Hmm, in Guoguo's immature wisdom, the skill inheritance Lin Chuan gave it was equivalent to taking it into another Spirit Beast's experience in the form of a dream, a tumultuous grand adventure.
Although it wouldn't remember anything from the dream upon waking, its body would still retain something—a skill, or perhaps the lingering wish of the Spirit Beast from which the material originated.
For instance, after it inherited the combat experience of that fighting-attribute Spirit Beast—though it was all experience of being a punching bag—it left a subconscious desire in Guoguo to challenge strong opponents and to engage in close-quarters combat with them.
So much so that Guoguo now longs for battle far more than Sakura or even all the Flower Leaf Leaves on the farm! Close-quarters, exhilarating combat!
It also yearns for the feeling of improvement gained after arduous training.
And ultimately, the glory of defeating powerful enemies and achieving victory!
All of these are Guoguo's current desires, making it utterly captivated.
Holding the black fruit core tightly in his hand, Lin Chuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Lin Chuan knew that his head was definitely going to be hit hard again, so he had to prepare himself mentally.
After several more deep breaths, Lin Chuan suddenly opened his eyes!
In an instant, activating the effect of Reincarnation of Inheritance with his consciousness and spirit, an invisible thread of black and white intertwined energy, imperceptible to the naked eye, separated from the depths of Lin Chuan's mind and soul's spiritual sea, traveled along Lin Chuan's internal meridians, and finally, through his arm, merged into the black fruit core he held in his hand.
The next second!
The black fruit core emitted a faint black-red glow, so weak it was like a candle flame in the wind, giving the impression it would extinguish at any moment. But! Despite its faintness, this light conveyed a sense of deadly danger, as if the black fruit was about to explode, with a strong emotion of furious destruction and mutual annihilation surging from within.
Lin Chuan realized that this was the influence of the memory fragments remaining within the black fruit core. From this, he could deduce that the Spirit Beast from which this black fruit core originated must have had an extraordinary experience, otherwise such an outburst of furious destruction and mutual annihilation would be impossible.
His body shivered involuntarily, Lin Chuan's hair stood on end, and he felt a little panicked and hesitant in his heart. Should he use such a dangerous skill material on the current Guoguo? After all, Guoguo's mind and wisdom are not yet mature; would it leave some dangerous subconscious imprint on it?
Finally, after about 10 seconds of hesitation, Lin Chuan made up his mind.
There is never a free lunch in this world; everything has a price already marked by fate. If you want to use cheats, you must be prepared to bear the risks!
Lin Chuan pressed the black fruit core, which was glowing black and red, against Guoguo’s forehead.
Thump!
The expected soul-hammer blow arrived without fail. Lin Chuan felt as if his head had been violently struck by a 10-ton storm hammer, leaving him dizzy, seeing stars, and feeling as if his soul was about to crack.
For this, Lin Chuan was already mentally prepared!
He immediately activated the energy within his body, the Wood Attribute energy feedback to him from Guoguo and Sakura's advanced growth. Lin Chuan maximized his self-healing and recovery abilities as much as possible.
Gradually, Lin Chuan felt his head much more comfortable, but a wave of drowsiness surged over him.
Fortunately, the drowsiness wasn't that strong; he could resist it.
Lin Chuan, drawing on his experience of resisting drowsiness from more than a decade of late-night, intense work in his previous life, gritted his teeth slightly, rubbed his temples, and forced his spirit to stay awake through sheer willpower.
In his current state, well, as long as there wasn't any major energy drain, finishing today's competition should be no problem at all.
From Guoguo’s perspective.
The moment Lin Chuan pressed the black fruit core, glowing black and red, against its forehead, it entered a state of lucid dreaming, its consciousness entering the memory fragments of the Spirit Beast from which the black fruit core originated.
In a trance.
Guoguo felt as if it had transformed into a Spirit Beast only about 10 centimeters tall, shaped like a peach.
Little Peach, a low-grade Soldier-tier Spirit Beast.
Its racial nature is gentle, kind, lively, and active. Because it looks like a small peach in the shape of a pink heart, it is very cute and deeply loved by certain human females and tough men, making it one of the best choices for a pet companion.
However, due to its living and growing habits, it must reside in a natural environment with a peach orchard.
Therefore, very few common Beast Masters can contract and raise Little Peach.
Little Peach generally lives in peach orchards specifically cultivated in human breeding bases, or in natural peach forests deep in the mountains.
Little Peach living in peach orchards cultivated in human breeding bases rarely encounter danger, while Little Peach living in the wild mountains, due to their low combat power, are usually preyed upon by other monsters and Spirit Beasts, especially ape-like Spirit Beasts, who most enjoy preying on Little Peach.
The Little Peach that Guoguo became, along with its tribe, lived in a wild peach forest deep in the mountains, free and unburdened by the world, happy and joyful every day. For one, two, three years, they lived this happy life for an unknown number of years.
As time passed, the Little Peach that Guoguo had become was chosen by the tribe as the chief. Actually, it wasn't much different; compared to other Little Peach in the tribe, it was just the first to drink water, occupied the best spot when sunbathing, and then mediated small conflicts that might arise in the daily lives of the other Little Peach. In short, everything was so simple, so happy.
However, suddenly! One day, the nightmare of the Little Peach tribe descended.
A group of ape monsters, who appeared from who knows where, captured all the Little Peach and its tribe in an instant. Every day, four or five Little Peach were eaten.
Witnessing its good friends and its own kin being eaten one by one, Chief Little Peach's heart swelled with boundless rage.
When all the other tribe members had been eaten, leaving only fruit cores scattered on the ground, this largest and seemingly most delicious Little Peach was also caught by an ape monster. At the moment it was about to be eaten, Chief Little Peach exploded!
It gathered all its energy, all its essence, qi, and spirit, and exploded on the monkey monster that had caught it!
It succeeded; Chief Little Peach severely injured this ape monster, but at the same time, it was also critically wounded.
Then, it was picked up by another monkey monster, crunched crisply, and eaten in one bite.
The last remnant was this black fruit core.
It contained its rage, its unwillingness, its love for the Little Peach tribe, and finally, the Fruit Bomb, a single strike in its life, condensed from all its energy, all its essence, qi, and spirit!
...
Its body trembled, like a branch in the cold wind, as if experiencing some pain, unlike the usual grand adventures.
At this moment, Guoguo was experiencing the memory fragment of Chief Little Peach being eaten by the monkey monster.
Rage, unwillingness, all energy, all essence, qi, and spirit condensed in an instant.
Boom!
An incredibly intense explosion drowned and shattered Guoguo's dream.
This powerful spiritual impact caused Guoguo to suddenly awaken, and all of Little Peach's memory fragments receded like a tide at the same time. Only the final explosion, condensed from all its essence, qi, and spirit and energy, was instinctively remembered by Guoguo's body.
Fruit Bomb! Acquired!
Seeing Guoguo awaken and recover, Lin Chuan quickly approached, about to inquire about the situation.
However, before Lin Chuan could even speak, Guoguo began to try it out itself. Its two little chubby hands were held out in front of it, and wisps of Wood Attribute energy gathered from Guoguo's body.
Essence, Qi, Spirit, instantly unified. Guoguo cried out, 'Ya ya!' and forcefully compressed the Wood Attribute energy to its extreme.
The next second!
A small, jade-green energy peach appeared in front of Guoguo, between its two little chubby hands.
Guoguo's eyes flashed, as if filled with boundless rage towards a certain ape, and its two little chubby hands pushed forward forcefully.
Whoosh~!
The jade-green energy peach arced through the air, landing on the courtyard wall in front.
Boom!
An explosion rumbled, smoke and dust flew, and all the flowers, plants, and trees in the entire courtyard were bent or even broken by the shockwave, with gravel flying everywhere.
When the smoke and dust dispersed, only a mess remained.
A large hole was blown out of the courtyard wall, and debris showered down. The next moment, with another boom, the entire wall collapsed.
Hiss.
Lin Chuan gasped sharply, wanting to contribute further to the greenhouse effect and environmental protection.
Unfortunately, this time, Lin Chuan's contribution was not in place; it was not used to reduce the greenhouse effect, but he successfully contributed to smog control. He inhaled a large mouthful of dust, which made him cough violently.
Patting his chest and catching his breath, Lin Chuan looked at the situation before him in disbelief.
He had expected the Fruit Bomb to be powerful, but Lin Chuan hadn't expected it to be *this* powerful.
This was just the Fruit Bomb learned through inheritance, entry-level? No, that's not right, it must be at least a normal-level Fruit Bomb!
Only then could it so easily collapse a wall.
It should be known that this wall was built of large bluestones; while not as strong as steel alloy of the same thickness, it was much thicker than ordinary walls. A normal Tier 1 Spirit Beast would find it very difficult to destroy it. Even an animal beast with strong physical power would need to scratch at it for over ten minutes to possibly dig a hole.
Goodness, truly goodness.
With this Fruit Bomb, who would still dare to say that Flower Leaf Leaf is a support-type Spirit Beast? Even speed-attack, strong-attack, burst, or even three-axe-style Spirit Beasts might not have such exaggerated damage!
At least, in Lin Chuan's current knowledge, he had never seen a Tier 1 Spirit Beast capable of unleashing such damage!
Amazing, my Guoguo has the potential of an Emperor!
