Chapter 997: Chapter 686: Waterfire System Narrow Beast_3
The southeastern sea region,
an Ice Kirin Beast over a thousand meters long was cutting through the waves, riding the wind.
Beside it followed a Sea Beast shaped like a salamander.
Ink Orchid and Purple, those two fellows, were quite alert; using their Scorching Ability to scout, they immediately picked up a Perception.
Ink Orchid’s figure surfaced above the Kirin Beast’s head, likewise activated the Scorching Ability, looked back this way, saw it was Dragon Cypress, raised her foreclaws and vigorously waved the Spider Silk Bag she was carrying In Claw.
"Great King? Second King is back? A Kirin Beast?"
Red Moonseed rose into the air with her, used the Scorching Ability to take a glance, and muttered, "And that annoying butterfly is here too."
"Red Moonseed, you really mustn’t underestimate the butterfly..."
Dragon Cypress called out, "Come on, let’s go take a look!"
Red Moonseed followed, still unconvinced. "Isn’t that butterfly just someone who comprehended ’Sea Beast Devouring’? What’s so great about that?"
"You’ll know in a bit."
Dragon Cypress controlled the Dominating Throne to speed up and flew over to meet them.
"Great Leader Dragon Cypress!"
"Jifeng."
Purple controlled the Narrow Beast, switching it into Cloud Mist form, hovering at low altitude, shaking her Tentacles in greeting.
Ink Orchid shook the Spider Silk Bag again and shouted, "Huge haul. One Divine-Given Seed of a sharp-leaf red shrub. One Sea God Fruit."
Dragon Cypress: "???"
Ink Orchid: "We went to the Antarctic ice seas to train our Abilities. On the way back, we happened to run into Butterfly King Nupur and New Orchid Spider King’s escort Insect team transporting Sea God Fruits. I just took the liberty of reclaiming our fruit for us, save them the trouble of laboring to deliver it again."
— That coincidental?
— You two didn’t go lie in wait on the road specifically to ambush the escort team, did you?
"..."
Dragon Cypress choked.
The second batch of Sea God Fruits would ripen and be harvested this autumn.
According to the agreement, after the battle with Blue Island, each of the five Leaders was guaranteed one fruit. Mountain Pepper Ant King had borrowed one from Dragon Cypress to comprehend the Kirin Beast, and was the first to leave the Star Realm.
From this batch’s yield, the one allocated to Mountain Pepper Ant King would automatically repay Dragon Cypress.
Ink Orchid chased with another question, "Dragon Cypress, who are you planning to give it to? Black Sophora? It’s not Rainbow Tea’s turn yet, right?"
"The Assistant King can wait. Let White Willow use it."
As Dragon Cypress spoke, he fixed his gaze on Purple.
The Narrow Beast under Purple’s control had all six wings fanning at once, raising a sheet of purple-red flames. She took the initiative to introduce:
"I successfully integrated the two Bionic Abilities, Thousand-Layer Flame Feather and Fire Roach, into the Narrow Beast and have preliminarily achieved fusion of Waterfire System."
As Purple spoke, the Narrow Beast rose vertically. With a whoosh, blazing purple-red flames burst from its six wings. It beat them fiercely, and tidal waves of fire surged forth, dyeing a huge swath of sky purple-red.
The Narrow Beast dove headfirst, shifting into a salamander-like Biomimicry form. With a boom, it plunged into the deep sea, swam a quick circuit, then burst out of the water, running across the sea’s surface. It opened its jaws and spewed out a Red Fire Column two to three dozen meters in diameter and four to five hundred meters long.
The scorching heat burned fiercely, the seawater Boiling and surging, white Aerosol billowing up. The biomimetic Narrow Beast smoothly shifted again into Cloud Mist form, rising into the air with the smoke.
Purple asked with undisguised pride, "Great Leader Dragon Cypress, how’s my Waterfire System Narrow Beast?"
Dragon Cypress swayed his Tentacles and patted Red Moonseed at his side.
Red Moonseed was already staring dumbfounded, and managed with difficulty, "The butterfly’s amazing!"
Using only limited Abilities and resources, Purple had developed the Waterfire System to the extreme, pushing the Narrow Beast Divine Pattern to its limit.
It was impossible not to admire her.
"Purple, you’re a butterfly who really knows how to use her head."
Dragon Cypress praised her.
Having watched it once, he let the Super Brain Ability analyze it; he basically understood the principles and also how he himself should combine and integrate Fire Mimicry Ability into the Zhen Beast Divine Pattern.
"Something that simple. I can do it too!"
Hearing this, Ink Orchid was not very pleased. She tossed the Spider Silk Bag to Dragon Cypress, wanting to show off her claws as well.
"Forget it, forget it. Everyone already knows how formidable the Second King is."
Dragon Cypress hurriedly stopped her, then asked, puzzled, "Where’s Green Heart? It didn’t come with you?"
Ink Orchid: "I was practicing the Kirin Beast, Purple was practicing the Narrow Beast. Green Heart doesn’t have either, could only watch, got bored, and went back to Mighty Spirit Mountain."
As expected,
you two were taking turns showing off in front of Green Heart.
No wonder Green Heart doesn’t want to play with you anymore.
Dragon Cypress hesitated for two seconds, then said, "Ink Orchid, we still have plenty of Time on Rainbow Island; there will be chances down the road. How about you take this Sea God Fruit and deliver it to Green Heart? Next time the Ocean God’s Scepter activates, let Green Heart try again. If it still doesn’t work, then there’s nothing more we can do."
"Okay!"
Ink Orchid’s eyes lit up; she agreed without hesitation. In a flicker, she snatched the Spider Silk Bag back again, buried her head to open it, took out the Metal Case and tossed it to Dragon Cypress, then flicked her Tentacles.
"Purple! Let’s go!"
"Got it!"
Purple cried out in delighted surprise, "I’ll thank Great Leader Dragon Cypress on Green Heart’s behalf first!"
