1427 Little Shrubby Awakens Again
Lin Mu had been waiting or Little Shrubby for a long time and had missed him too.
It was safe to say that he was the closest companion that Lin Mu had.
Should be soon now Lin Mu watched as only a few wisps were left behind in the barrier.
The seed was clearly visible in the middle, and the spirit herbs and fruits had turned into dust. The seed had fully absorbed everything from the resources, leaving behind nothing at all.
Just from this one could also see that the efficiency of Little Shrubbys absorption was high too. At the very least, for the wood element and the fire element.
Lin Mu didnt have to watch for long either, as the final few wisps of the dark green energy were finally absorbed!
~RUMBLE~
And when that happened, the seed shook.
~humm~
An aura rose from the seed, and the image of a beast started to form from the aura. This beast was brown in color and looked like it was made out of several vines wrapping around a wooden body.
It was none other than the Fume Wood Panther!
~GOWAO~
The bloodline figure of the Fume Wood Panther let out a growl as its size started to grow. Its figure also became a lot clearer than before, and Lin Mu knew this was due to the absorption of a large amount of Beast Qi.
The Bloodline Figure didnt appear for long though, as after a few seconds, it shrank back and merged into the Seed again.
~CRACKLE~
It was at this time that the seed cracked!
As if it was a tender sprout was about to rise, a rich vitality was released from the cracks on the seed.
~WHOOSH~
Then the seed burst apart in a splash of light as a small silhouette rushed out of it.
~THUD~
Lin Mu was pushed back as the figure slammed into him.
AHAHAHA! Youre out, finally! Lin Mu hugged the little beast in his hands.
Master!!! Little Shrubbys voice was heard in his voice.
Lin Mu felt his heart soften upon hearing it and a tender feeling filled it.
The softness of Little Shrubbys fur was apparent as he kept on rubbing his head against Lin Mu. He was in his kitten form and was even smaller than the usual form he used to have, which made Lin Mu a little concerned.
He observed Little Shrubbys body and saw two new patterns on it. Other than the ones he already had, there were now two green, leaf like patterns on the back of his ears. But that was not all, as Lin Mu could also sense the change in Little Shrubbys cultivation base.
You reached the Immortal Ascension realm? Lin Mu could feel the qualitative difference.
He used his immortal sense to observe Little Shrubbys Dantian and saw that the Claw Dao Embryo had greatly expanded. It also had a far greater presence than before and exuded an aura of flaming fierceness.
But that was not all, as Lin Mu saw something else that surprised him.
panda (nov)el Another Dao Sh.e.l.l? Little Shrubbys Dantian had a second Dao Sh.e.l.l floating in it.
It was light green in color and seemed to be empty, but Lin Mu had a hunch why it had appeared.
The bloodline of the Fume Wood Panther was strengthened and his affinity with the wood element has greatly increased. Even the Dao Sh.e.l.l is made out of pure Wood Elemental Sprint Qi. Lin Mu a.n.a.lyzed. Seems like you will be having a second Dao Embryo soon, too. He muttered.
I will! Little Shrubby nodded his head. I have a lot of new information in my mind. He revealed.
You do? Lin Mu raised a brow.
Yes, it came from my bloodline. I now know more about it. Little Shrubby answered.
Oh? What do you know? Lin Mu asked, feeling curious.
Let me just show you. Little Shrubby said before leaving Lin Mus embrace.
~shua~
He jumped back over fifty meters in one go and started to enlarge.
~HONG~
It was as if the very air was being pressured by Little Shrubbys presence as he grew in size. First, he returned to his usual small size, then reached his core condensation realm level size. It continued to rise more and more until Little Shrubby was over twenty meters long and ten meters tall!
The patterns on his fur became a lot sharper, and the leaf shaped patterns on his ear also turned into an entire tree like pattern.
The tree pattern wrapped around his ears, while the trunk of the tree went down the side of his neck, joining up with the brown and black pattern he had on his back.
His aura though, had the greatest change. Before this, it was mostly an imposing and burning aura. But now there was a contrasting mixture of burning might and a vibrant vitality. Fire and wood affinities had now reached almost the same level, bringing about this change.
~rustle~
But this was not the full extent of it, as Little Shrubbys presence excited the plants in the Sleepscape.
The Wood Spirit Tulip directly uprooted itself and moved closer to the beast, while the Purple Sickle amaranth did the same. Only the Immortal Apple Tree didnt do that, but it still moved its branches so that most of its parts faced Little Shrubby.
Lin Mu narrowed his eyes, guessing the reason behind it all.
Lightly chanting the Calming Heart Sutra, Lin Mu activated his spatial perception again. This time though, he only focused on the air around Little Shrubby.
Just as I thought the Dao Traces of wood are also abundant around him. Lin Mu could see faint motes of red and green floating around Little Shrubby.
The red motes were the Dao Traces of Fire while the Green were the Dao Traces of Wood. It was the latter that was attractive to the plants.
Even the gra.s.s under their feet seemed to be responding and grew a rapidly, quickly reaching six inches.
