CHAPTER 1321: CHAPTER 1322: BATTLE

"Are you... training with a Spirit Beast from home?"

Looking at Agunas, the girl exclaimed in surprise. Although it’s not unheard of, she truly didn’t expect to encounter it here.

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan glanced at Agunas and said,

"No, that’s a friend."

"A friend?"

Glancing at Agunas, the girl chuckled softly, saying,

"That’s an interesting way to put it, though aren’t they our friends to begin with?"

"Hehe~"

Feng Yuan scratched his head without explaining. Agunas swished his tail, looked at Feng Yuan, and said,

"Was your urgency earlier just to test this move?"

"Yeah~ Don’t you think it’s great? Adding the effect of medicinal pollen during attacks seems really cool~"

Patting Xiao Ji’s head, Feng Yuan said proudly, although the other party had used the pollen of You Zi Flower for a while, it didn’t recover as fast as Rain of Life would.

Seeing her Hua Xiaoduo has healed, the girl looked curiously at Xiao Ji beside Feng Yuan and said,

"Aren’t you going to heal it? While challenging limits helps increase strength, there’s no need to go all out, right?"

Xiao Ji leaned over and nudged Feng Yuan expectantly. It only heard about increasing strength and had no idea what challenging limits meant. Amused, Feng Yuan patted Xiao Ji and said,

"It’s not that I’m not healing it, it’s that Rain of Life can’t be used to heal Death-type Spirit Beasts."

"Rain of Life?! But isn’t Kannasis like that?"

Observing Agunas with suspicion, the girl asked confused, but Agunas flicked his tail, not wanting to explain, while Feng Yuan looked at Agunas and said,

"No, it’s not Kannasis. It’s Agunas; it can recreate Rain of Life through time."

"Is it... a Divine Beast?"

Watching Agunas closely, the girl asked cautiously. Floating to Feng Yuan’s other side, Agunas said,

"Correct, I am the Time Divine Beast Agunas, any guidance?"

"Are you a Divine Pact Maker?"

Looking at Feng Yuan with envy, the girl curiously asked. Shaking his head, Feng Yuan glanced at Agunas and said,

"No, I’m just friends with them. So, want to have another round?"

Elsewhere, seeing Feng Yuan alright, Qi Chen and others also started searching for their opponents.

"Ah Mu, behind you!"

Standing atop the Amu Tree, Qi Chen shouted loudly, shooting several arrows skyward with his Longbow. The green Arrow Rain descended and covered all around, directly exposing the hidden Flame Wolfhound.

Instead of turning around, Ah Mu hammered the ground with both hands, causing several small Seistal Steles with vines to burst forth from the earth, surrounding the Flame Wolfhound, which howled as it ignited fierce flames, attempting to break through the vine barrier. However, the Seistal Stele suppressed non-Wood-type moves.

The flames on the Flame Wolfhound rapidly extinguished. Seeing this, the Beastmaster of the Flame Wolfhound gritted his teeth, concealed himself, and charged at Qi Chen. Unfortunately, his stealth wasn’t as good as Feng Yuan’s, as Qi Chen easily revealed his invisibility with an arrow. Seeing he couldn’t gain the upper hand, he conceded.

At this moment, Agunas floated over and released Rain of Life, bathing Ah Mu and the Flame Wolfhound in its shower. Qi Chen thanked Agunas.

His opponent, surprised, looked at Agunas, not expecting Qi Chen and the others to have such a powerful healing Spirit Beast. Checking the Flame Wolfhound, the boy looked at Qi Chen in admiration and said,

"I never thought you were so strong. I thought we’d have more of an advantage at night, but I was wrong."

Recalling the other’s actions seemed to see through his invisibility, the boy couldn’t help but feel envious. The Flame Wolfhound’s usual battle style is head-on; rarely would it attack stealthily like he had done.

Moreover, it’s not due to a lack of power. Don’t underestimate the Flame Wolfhound’s attempts to break through the vines while igniting itself in flames; if it weren’t Ah Mu using the Seistal Stele, ordinary Wood-type Control Force moves wouldn’t trap it, the flames would break through, or the vines might even harm the user.

But alas, its opponent was Ah Mu, who possesses Nainefar’s power, and its Wood-type moves are inherently strong, coupled with the Seistal Stele’s suppressive effect, it could efficiently restrain the Flame Wolfhound.

"Your stealth attacks are impressive, especially since it’s unexpected for it to have such a combat style."

Looking at the Flame Wolfhound, Qi Chen said. After all, it’s rare to think a dignified Flame Wolfhound would attack like an assassin.

The other laughed heartily, saying,

"Being unexpected makes it easier to defeat opponents. Besides, in the wild, not letting others see through you easily is important."

"And you’re so good at counter-stealth, it makes one envious."

"Of course, he can even detect my stealth. His combat intuition is insane."

Feng Yuan’s voice suddenly rang in the boy’s ear. He turned and looked around, frowning slightly as he released an Energy Impact, but the ring-shaped shockwave flattened the grass around without revealing Feng Yuan.

"Hehe~ Your technique needs more work~"

Feng Yuan proudly revealed himself right in front of the boy, who stared in wonder and said,

"So young?!"

"Hey! Do my voice sound old?!

Looking at the other speechlessly, Feng Yuan complained bitterly. The boy observed Feng Yuan and said,

"No, it’s just your stealth is so powerful, I thought..."

"That guy’s unique. Even I can’t notice his stealth."

Walking over, Qi Chen patted Feng Yuan on the shoulder and said to the boy. Snapping a glance at Qi Chen, Feng Yuan replied irritably,

"You just can’t see where I am, but if you get close enough, you’ll notice me."

"So, you won your side?"

Looking at Feng Yuan, Qi Chen asked in confusion. Shrugging, Feng Yuan replied,

"Yeah, but I also tested what I wanted. Converting energy into those flowers and incorporating them into attacks is possible, though the merging with the Ultimate Move is low."

Although Xiao Ji triggered an explosion, dispersing the pollen of the You Zi Flower when crashing into Hua Xiaoduo, it was merely rapidly converted pollen. Without the collision, Xiao Ji could release converted pollen separately with the same effect.

Rather than saying it’s incidental, it’s more like Xiao Ji used two moves simultaneously.

"Flowers?"

Looking at Feng Yuan in surprise, Qi Chen was puzzled. The other gently patted Xiao Ji’s back, looking at the Baiyu Flowers atop the Amu Tree, and said,

"Yeah, just like Ah Mu’s Baiyu Flowers, Xiao Ji can temporarily convert power into those flowers for special effects, such as the healing of the You Zi Flower pollen."

"But this can only be considered a unique move and can’t merge with the original move."

Feng Yuan said with a tinge of regret. If he could alter the original move, it would be interesting, but alas, it wasn’t possible. Curious about Xiao Ji, Qi Chen asked,

"But how can it transform flowers?"

Xiao Ji isn’t a Plant-type Spirit Beast nor has Wood attributes, so where does the ability to induce plant growth come from? If it weren’t for Feng Yuan’s serious demeanor, he would have thought it was a joke.

Glancing at Qi Chen, Feng Yuan replied irritably,

"Don’t forget, these flowers are sprouted by Kannen’s Ultimate Move, inherently using Spirit Beast energy to simulate entities, although it’s hard for an ordinary Spirit Beast."

He didn’t mention that only a Divine Beast can do that, unless like Ah Mu with Nainefar’s power to transmute, or Xiao Ji being a Divine Beast with powerful control force to finely manipulate energy.

Even Xiao Ji relied on his assistance to complete the transformation, and couldn’t do it alone.

After all, it’s Kannen’s special ability. Not every Divine Beast can achieve a similar effect so effortlessly.
