[Wilderness True Form: Building upon Wild Shape, you can completely transform your physical body and soul into the target. The transformation is no longer tied to the original target's state; you become another form entirely. You can freely use and comprehend the innate bloodline talents of the animal form.]
[This transformation is based on your original body. The strength and status of your main body and the transformation form are intertwined; changes in strength or injuries will affect each other.]
[Every five levels, you gain one Wilderness True Form slot. Current Wilderness True Form Slots: 1]
"Wilderness True Form!"
This was a Druid's true transformation! Qi Ping already had a choice in mind for his second Wild Shape and his first Wilderness True Form. He had been looking forward to this skill for a long time.
[Skills Selected: Plant Sovereign, Wilderness True Form]
As the two skills merged into his being, Qi Ping slowly closed his eyes. In his state of deep focus, he suddenly discovered spheres of special Law power hidden within the tree spirits of his contracted trees.
"Are these Law insights?"
With a thought, a Law sphere hidden deep within the Star-Light Wood's tree spirit immediately flew to Qi Ping's side and slowly merged into his body. Following that, a series of insights regarding starlight power and the Way of Nature rose in his mind.
"I see!"
Qi Ping suddenly understood. No wonder characters in the game gained experience when they were near tree spirits; it was this special Law power. As he absorbed this power, his Druid experience jumped up by several points.
"I definitely chose the right skill!"
"Truly worthy of the title Plant Sovereign!"
Feeling the power of the skill, Qi Ping was immensely satisfied. However, instead of immediately pulling all the Law spheres from the tree spirits, he patted his sleeve.
At his gentle touch, a small, emerald-green snake—exquisitely crafted like jade—crawled out from his sleeve. It stared with its large, round eyes, confused as to why Qi Ping had woken it. It wasn't annoyed, however; instead, it looked at him with anticipation.
Qi Ping said nothing. He simply took out a jar of honey radiating thick Water-attribute spiritual energy from his storage ring and placed it before the little snake. Upon seeing the honey, the snake's eyes instantly lit up. It swallowed the honey without hesitation, its mouth moving as it chewed happily. Its eyes squinted in satisfaction, a look of pure contentment on its face.
Seeing the snake's happy expression, a smile appeared on Qi Ping's face. Then, under his control, a dark green contract formation rose rapidly.
The little snake's eyes flashed with a look of realization. It immediately grew serious, as if preparing to face one of the most important events of its life. Qi Ping watched with a sense of anticipation.
"Clear-Manifestation Green Snake..."
[Species: Clear-Manifestation Green Snake]
[Bloodline: Rank 4 Mid-grade]
[Talents: Clear-Manifestation Mirror, Pure Spirit Physique, Extraordinary Body]
Clear-Manifestation Mirror: Possesses the Eyes of Transcendence and Extraordinary Comprehension. The Eyes of Transcendence can analyze the principles and operating routes of any technique seen in the shortest possible time and store them within. Extraordinary Comprehension can grasp those principles in record time.
Pure Spirit Physique: The body has an extremely high affinity for spiritual energy but is naturally pure and lacks any attribute.
Extraordinary Body: The physical body has extremely high plasticity and growth potential. The probability of evolution and breaking through bottlenecks is significantly increased.
[Evaluation: A special spirit beast that can either vanish into the masses or soar straight into the nine heavens.]
The Clear-Manifestation Green Snake was the second form Qi Ping had selected for Wild Shape and his first choice for Wilderness True Form. What had finalized his decision was the Extraordinary Body talent. While it might not seem particularly outstanding at first glance, the potential for growth when stacked with Qi Ping's current passives and resources was terrifying.
Furthermore, because the snake's constitution made breakthroughs easier, if his human body ever hit a cultivation bottleneck, he could consider breaking through in his snake form first, then feeding the progress back to his main body. Additionally, if he ever needed to travel among the demon race in a beast form, the snake was his best option.
As Qi Ping mused, the dark green contract formation was nearly complete. His expression grew solemn. In this contract, he must obtain the Clear-Manifestation Mirror talent! This talent was vital to his future path of founding techniques, researching arrays, and comprehending Laws. There could be no mistakes! With this talent, the effect of refining the Law spheres from the tree spirits would also be much better.
Under his control, the contract formation slowly merged into the little snake's body. In that instant, Qi Ping's consciousness suddenly appeared within a special space. He wasn't surprised; once inside, he immediately began sensing the differences between the three main light spheres.
Almost the moment he made his judgment, a small light sphere outside the three main ones shot toward him with incredible speed. Facing this sudden "terrorist attack," Qi Ping managed to dodge it at the last second and threw himself into the sphere containing the unique eye pupil.
After merging with the sphere and sensing the insights regarding the Eyes of Transcendence and Extraordinary Comprehension, Qi Ping breathed a massive sigh of relief. He had almost merged with some unknown thing; he had nearly been hit by that one-in-ten chance. He could have accepted Extraordinary Body, but if he had merged with some random junk, he would have been truly unlucky.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, he had merged with the Clear-Manifestation Mirror talent he had been longing for! The Eyes of Transcendence and Extraordinary Comprehension were his!
Several days later, when Qi Ping opened his long-closed eyes, a white vertical pupil appeared within them. Immediately, diagrams of special spiritual energy flows and rule circulations appeared in his vision.
"Clear-Manifestation Mirror... what an overbearing talent!"
"But I like it!"
Now, there was absolutely no suspense regarding the creation of his Water-Fire techniques and his research into array fusion!
"Let's begin! Progress starts today!"
With a burst of heroic spirit, the spheres of Law power within the tree spirits began to fly into Qi Ping's body! At that moment, Qi Ping fell into a state of total seclusion!
This seclusion lasted for fifteen years.
Fifteen years later, a figure with the perfect fusion of Water and Fire Intent slowly stepped out from a six-in-one super array composed of three terrifying Fire Arrays and three terrifying Water Arrays!
