CHAPTER 346: CHAPTER 292: EVOLUTION OF THE STARRY SEA, SHAKING SEA DRAGON WHALE_2

"Xing Hai was well aware of Xiao Jiu’s explosive power.

Since it dared to let Xiao Jiu go all out, it showed it was very confident in itself.

"Roar!"

A thick battle intent also welled up in Xiao Jiu’s golden eyes.

Boom!

The crimson Corona Flame rose from beneath its feet.

In the next second.

With the blessing of entries like [Extremely Spicy], three ethereal flame tails of a peerless level fiercely slashed towards Xing Hai.

Boom!

The turbulent and violent fire energy erupted the moment it touched the scales of light, forming a heart-pounding energy vortex.

Xiao Jiu did not hold back. At full burst, this attack’s strength had completely reached the intensity of the Monarch High Stage!

However, it was entirely blocked by light scales shimmering like colorful clothes.

Although the fiery image ultimately tore through the illusory light scales, its power was reduced to the utmost, leaving only three shallow bloodstains on the Hanhai Dragon Whale.

And with Xing Hai’s [Water Healing], the wounds vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

"What incredible defensive power!"

Chen Mo was somewhat surprised.

The boost brought by Xing Hai’s evolution this time was truly astonishing.

High Stage Monarch attacks couldn’t harm it! This meant only near Overlord level and above Spiritual Beasts could potentially harm Xing Hai.

It’s simply maxed-out security!

"Roar—"

The big guy was also very excited. After its continuous effort, it finally returned to the T0 tier position!

In the next few days, Chen Mo brushed up lots of green entries suitable for Moli, preparing for the upcoming training.

These little entries were easy to complete, but generally had good effects.

For instance, [Magical Girl (Shadow)], [Shadow Affinity], [Apprentice Assassin], etc.

The Magical Girl series of entries are all about enhancing the speed of learning various moves. This time, the Magical Girl (Shadow) was no exception, while Shadow Affinity slightly increased the absorption speed of Shadow Element Spiritual Power.

And when Chen Mo equipped entries for End Cat for the first time,

End Cat’s pupils instantly enlarged, looking "cat-shocked."

Is this the power of a Spirit Master!?

Just a head pet, and one can become stronger!?

"Huh~"

"Eek!"

Chen Mo’s other Spiritual Beasts remained remarkably calm.

You’ll get used to it~

They all went through the same thing.

Even the petting action was superfluous; it was simply Chen Mo wanting to rua you a bit.

---------------

Time flew by, and before long, it was the seventh day of the Chinese New Year.

On this day, Chen Mo followed Chen Meng to a dojo named [Shadow Flow Daoist School].

This dojo was established by the Shadow Flow master Xia Mo.

Like most dojos, the Daoist School Master Xia Mo rarely showed up, with her students teaching most of the time.

Because Chen Meng arranged it with her beforehand, she was waiting at the dojo today.

"Sister Meng, is there anything I should be cautious about while interacting with Master Xia Mo later?"

At the entrance, Chen Mo asked.

"There’s nothing particularly noteworthy, Xia Mo is quite easygoing, except for being a bit greedy, there’s nothing wrong with her."

Chen Meng casually replied.

As soon as she finished talking, a dark shadow suddenly appeared before the two.

It was a woman dressed in black leather clothing, with a notably seductive figure and alluring looks.

The most striking features were a pair of fluffy cat ears on her head and a tail behind her.

"Mengmeng, badmouthing someone behind their back isn’t nice! I’m not that kind of person!"

Xia Mo kept a straight face, then rather firmly said:

"Sorry, I’m not teaching this student!"

She and Chen Meng had teamed up while exploring a certain heritage site, and they got along quite well.

A few days ago, Chen Meng contacted her, saying a friend’s Spiritual Beast wanted to learn the "Shadow Flow Doctrine" from her, and she agreed readily.

She didn’t expect this bad woman to "slander" her at the doorway!

And it looked deliberate!

Sensing trouble, Chen Mo was about to retrieve some epic-level gourmet dishes he prepared from his Space Ring for a culinary diplomacy session.

Dark Night Black Forest Cake, Black Brew Drink, Shadow Glutinous Rice Dumpling.

All were sweet delicacies suitable for Shadow Element Spiritual Beasts, with decent effects.

They should be able to restore Xia Mo’s goodwill to some extent.

But Chen Meng stopped him.

Chen Meng faintly smiled, then took out a flower emitting a white glow from her Space Ring.

This flower had white outer petals and blue inner petals, giving a serene and elegant feeling.

"Are you sure you’re not teaching?"

"The Silent Princess!"

Xia Mo couldn’t help but call out the name of the plant.

Although the Silent Princess was only an epic-level spiritual material, it only grew in the Shadow Lands bathed in moonlight, requiring extremely harsh growth conditions, so it was very rare, with a rarity almost comparable to legendary-level materials.

More importantly— the Silent Princess could enhance the talent of Shadow Element Spiritual Beasts.

Xia Mo’s Phantom Cat Emperor found it very difficult to improve its growth level further after ascending to the Monarch High Stage due to its not-so-top-tier talent, so this Silent Princess was very important to her!

"Teach! Of course, teach! Hehe, Sister Chen Meng, your judgment is impeccable!"

In the next second, Xia Mo’s previously stern face instantly turned into a harmless smile.

She showcased a rapid transformation of expression.

Highlighting the virtue of being adaptable.

She revealed a brilliant smile, gesturing welcomingly:

"Sister Chen Meng, rest assured, I will impart all my lifelong knowledge to Master Chen’s Spiritual Beast!"

Xia Mo naturally recognized Chen Mo, not only from the World Championships but also from him assisting the company in establishing connections with Mao Mao City, making her view him in a new light.

"Sister Meng is just too generous, huh?"

Chen Mo mentally remarked.

Using an epic-level resource to swap for a learning opportunity seemed a bit extravagant.

Truly a wealthy lady!

But amidst the gratitude, Chen Mo faintly sensed a feeling:

Sister Meng does not seem to want Xia Mo to taste the food I made?

Thinking of this, Chen Mo took out a piece of durian cake, handed it to Chen Meng, and softly said:

"Sister Meng, I made a cake, please have some."

Durian cake was Chen Meng’s favorite dessert, and Chen Mo prepared quite a bit.

"Then I won’t be polite."

Chen Meng accepted the cake with a smile, taking a bite and revealing a satisfied expression on her face.

This durian cake was effective in making one feel joyous and relaxed.

"Do you want some too?"

Thinking Chen Mo might not have had breakfast yet, Chen Meng softly asked.

"Okay."

Xia Mo, watching this pair of lovebirds dote on each other in front of her, couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

Wasn’t Chen Meng the recognized ice beauty? How did she seem a bit love-struck now?

But thinking about her being in her thirties and still single, Xia Mo couldn’t help but feel a little wistful.

"Meow~ (No man can be better than us meow~)"

Sensing her Spirit Master’s mood, the Phantom Cat Emperor comforted her.

"That’s true!"

Xia Mo nodded, then spoke to Chen Mo:

"Summon the Spiritual Beast you want to train!"

"Come out, Moli."

Chen Mo silently commanded in his heart, and a deep black summoning array appeared in front of him, with shadowy lightning intertwining at the center of the array.

Then a completely black End Cat with a lightning-shaped tail slowly walked out.

Currently clad in a cloak of red and black, Moli looked both dashing and slightly confusedly endearing, enough to make anyone want to rua it.

"Meow~"

"So cute!"

Xia Mo’s eyes sparkled, seeing Moli felt like seeing her Phantom Cat Emperor as a kitten.

Even the cold Phantom Cat Emperor beside couldn’t help but glance a few times.

So, was I this cute before evolving?

"First, we’ll do a simple physical assessment, then I’ll help you design a corresponding training plan."

Xia Mo said.

"Meow~"

End Cat obediently followed Xia Mo’s instructions and completed various tests.

"Your End Cat’s talent is quite remarkable! Moreover, it’s a mutated electric type."

Seeing the test results, Xia Mo couldn’t help but praise.

This End Cat’s physique was even slightly better than that of the Phantom Cat Emperor at the same stage, indeed an extraordinary talent.

What’s more incredible is—it turned out to be a mutated electric type, and the electric and shadow energies didn’t conflict!

Lightning, symbolizing swiftness and ferocity, while shadow signifies concealment and lurking.

These two attributes are universally acknowledged as the most suitable for the assassin path.

And the End Cat possessing both attributes simultaneously, seemed as if...it was naturally a born assassin!
