Chapter 1276: Chapter 361: Yingying’s Evolution! (2-in-1)
Lin Su, without a word, directly retrieved Yingying flying toward him into the Beast Taming Space, cupped his hands toward everyone, and then left along the periphery of the secret realm.
Seeing Lin Su being so tactful, the others couldn’t really hold grudges for Lin Su disturbing their cultivation just now and quickly continued their rigorous training.
...
Once he reached the outer region, completely avoiding the sight of the other nine, Lin Su finally stopped his steps.
Pale yellow light runes intertwined into a formation beneath him, and soon Yingying’s figure emerged from it.
Only at this moment did Lin Su have the time to take a good look at the new state of Yingying.
Back when Guigui evolved into a Trick Master, although it possessed talent skills far surpassing a typical Trick Master, its appearance did not differ from the norm.
But the evolved Yingying was indeed quite different from a normal Trick Master.
The cloak covering its body was decorated with splendid pitch-black patterns, woven together in a shape resembling Scale Armor.
Moreover, Yingying’s claws were sharper than those of a regular Trick Master, with a chilling glint at the claw tips.
With such special changes occurring, it’s clear Yingying’s talent skills differ from a standard Trick Master’s.
"Yingying, how are your talent skills after the evolution?" he eagerly asked.
Yingying scratched its head after briefly sensing its own skills.
"Keh! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)" (They’re different from Guigui’s!)
"It’s normal for them to be different. Do you have all of the normal Trick Master’s talent skills?" Lin Su gently inquired.
"Keh! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)" (Got them all!)
Yingying nodded quickly and then began to show Lin Su one by one.
Trickster’s Pocket, Monarch Power, and the other two sub-skills of Shadow Techniques: Shadow Clone and Shadow Lock.
These are the additional four skills gained after the normal Trickster Clown evolves; Yingying has all of them.
After a simple demonstration, it was time for the main event of this evolution.
"Keh! (｡✪‿✪｡)" (I awakened the Emperor Force Field!)
A joyful smile appeared on Yingying’s face.
Hearing this, Lin Su couldn’t help but show an equally happy expression.
Overall, Yingying’s evolution this time was better than Guigui’s evolution conditions back then.
In terms of selecting evolution resources, this time, Lin Su, who helped Yingying choose extra evolution resources, had already mastered more knowledge regarding evolutions, making more reasonable choices.
In terms of Secret Realm Core assistance, Guigui’s previous evolution was also in the core of a yellow-tier secret realm, but that was a light and dark elemental secret realm core. Yingying’s Dark Pond at the moment was a purely dark elemental secret realm core, which naturally had a better effect.
Moreover, before evolution, Yingying had already elevated two of its skills to IV tier. If not for the growth tier limit, it would have even started comprehending rules, which was something Guigui couldn’t match back then.
Therefore, it’s normal for Yingying to be stronger than Guigui after evolving.
Back then, Guigui was only a step away from the Emperor race after evolving and later transformed into the Emperor race after entering the Prodigy Battlefield. Currently, Yingying achieved this step with just one evolution.
"Does Shadow Techniques have any other sub-skills?" Lin Su gently asked.
Yingying nodded heavily and then began its demonstration.
It slightly lifted its claw, and the next moment, a claw shadow suddenly appeared from the shadows about ten meters away, viciously tearing at the void.
A powerful momentum erupted instantly, with a violent sound of wind breaking and waves of energy surging forth.
This move also carried an element of surprise, and one could imagine that being hit by it would cause severe damage.
"Keh! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)" (This is the sub-skill Shadow Claw Attack!)
After a brief introduction, Yingying quickly submerged into the shadows.
The next moment, the shadow under a nearby large rock suddenly shattered.
At the same time, cracks appeared on the large rock, and in an instant, it shattered into dozens of pieces.
Only then did Yingying’s figure reappear.
"Keh! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)" (This is the sub-skill Shadow Split!)
After witnessing Yingying’s two sub-skills, Lin Su’s face showed some surprise.
Unlike Guigui’s two additional sub-skills back in the day, all of Yingying’s new sub-skills were of the attack type.
"What about the remaining talent skills?" he gently asked, with a hint of exploration in his eyes.
"Keh! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)" (This is Dark Curtain Protection!)
Yingying suddenly swung its cloak, which then rapidly expanded, enveloping it like a sphere, with the pitch-black patterns interwoven on it, forming an indestructible shield.
This...
Lin Su was initially taken aback, and then his eyes showed delighted surprise.
This turned out to be a purely defensive dark-type skill?!
Even Guigui back then didn’t have such an ability, being able only to use shadow transformation to become immune to physical attacks.
Moreover, this defensive skill seemed to have high potential.
Since Yingying was wrapping itself in the cloak with ease, it seemed capable of more.
So when the proficiency level increased in the future, wrapping more units with the cloak should also be possible!
"Keh! (｡⊙‿⊙｡)" (This is the Night Flame Claw!)
Yingying spoke again, and the next moment, the sharp claws with a chilling glint quickly glowered with a pitch-black flame.
Yingying then fiercely slashed into the void, and two claw shadows formed by the merging black flames spread across the sky, enveloping the distance.
