"What a pity… that's an ice-attribute Spirit Ability, and also an extension of a ntal-type ability."
"Huo Yuhao relies on his ntal-type Spirit of the Spirit Eyes. How could I, with my Blue Silver Grass, go to Ji Bei Zhi Di (The Far North) to find an ice silkworm? I'm afraid I'd be…"
Thinking of this, Tang Chuan smiled bitterly in his heart.
However, this reminded him.
"Simulation is just a form of Spirit Ability."
"Since an ice-attribute Spirit Beast can derive Simulation, then, can other attributes, other types of Spirit Beasts also derive similar disguise abilities?"
"As long as it can achieve the effect of hiding one's aura and concealing one's Realm, it doesn't necessarily have to be the Simulation Spirit Ability like Huo Yuhao's."
Thinking of this, Tang Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
The next mont, he got up and walked towards the Noding Academy library.
Night fell, and there were few pedestrians on campus, but a corner of the library was still lit by a dim yellow light.
Pushing the door open, Tang Chuan skillfully walked to the Spirit Beast classification data area, quickly scanning rows of thick beast encyclopedias, his hands rapidly flipping through them.
"Spirit Beast Records: Plant Chapter,"
"Records of Rare Plant Spirit Beast Distribution on the Continent,"
"Overview of Low-Rank Spirit Beast Ecology…"
He flipped page after page, and checked volu after volu.
Several hours passed, and night was deep.
Other students had long since fallen asleep, and Tang Chuan was the only one left in the library.
It wasn't until he opened a yellowed copy of "Research Records on Spirit Beast Latent Abilities" that his finger suddenly paused, his gaze falling on an illustration on one of its pages.
101 Reading 101kan Fully typed without errors.
The illustration depicted a graceful, vine-covered, purple-gold flower Spirit Beast. Its flower bud resembled a chrysanthemum, but it possessed an extrely strong mitic ability, capable of changing its shape in swamps, dense forests, rocks, and even piles of fallen leaves, luring nearby prey.
Spirit Beast Na: Illusionary Hidden Flower
Attribute: Plant type
Distribution: Star Dou Great Forest Southwest Swamp Forest Belt, Wetland at the Edge of Dense Forests
Predicted Spirit Ability Direction: Concealing aura, simulating environnt, ntal disturbance.
The mont he saw that page of introduction, Tang Chuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
He stared at the illustration of the vine-covered flower bud, his pupils slightly constricted, a hint of excitent curving his lips, and he whispered:
"A plant-type Spirit Beast… capable of simulating and disguising itself according to the surrounding environnt, transforming itself into rocks, fallen leaves, vines, or even mud… then luring prey close before launching a fatal blow."
"Illusionary Hidden Flower…"
Whispering those three words, Tang Chuan felt an indescribable sense of compatibility rise in his heart.
Closing the book, Tang Chuan lowered his head in thought, muttering to himself:
"Although this Spirit Beast doesn't belong to a pure life-type, it is still a plant-type, and its fundantal attribute doesn't conflict with that of the Blue Silver Grass."
"Moreover, Blue Silver Grass has one major advantage."
"Its developnt direction is extrely broad, and it will not repel any attribute spirit ring."
This was a hidden advantage behind the reputation of Blue Silver Grass as a trash Spirit.
It didn't have the evolutionary path restrictions of offensive Spirits, nor was it limited to a certain attribute for Fusion. As long as the spirit ring was appropriately matched, Blue Silver Grass could derive in any direction: control, life, poison, Binding, defense, and even long-range interference and disguise.
At this mont, Tang Chuan continued to weigh in his heart:
"At this stage, I am still too weak. Although my spirit power has reached Rank ten, I have no combat experience, no helpers, and no offensive Spirit Abilities."
"Once people discover that my spirit power Rank has increased too quickly, possibly due to absorbing a Spirit Bone, it will inevitably lead to a life-threatening disaster."
Tang Chuan gently clenched his fist, a resolute glint flashing in his eyes:
"Life-type spirit rings can be slowly supplented later; right now, I must first save my life."
"In a Xuanhuan World, strength is revered. Before I truly beco strong, I must first learn how to hide my true abilities and survive, letting others think I am just a useless person."
...…
The next afternoon, the setting sun cast its light on the red brick eaves of Noding Academy, and the air still held the damp freshness after the rain.
Tang Chuan stood at the dormitory entrance, skillfully tearing off the fascia from a wild rabbit's leg. His movents were clean and efficient, clearly that of an experienced person, obviously not his first ti doing such work.
"The Illusionary Hidden Flower is distributed in the Star Dou Great Forest, which is thousands of miles away…"
He held a blade of grass in his mouth, his eyes calm and clear.
In Tang Chuan's opinion, even if he wanted to obtain his first spirit ring, he had to prepare well first. He needed money for travel, and the Star Dou Great Forest was far from Nuoding City. Going back and forth would take a long ti, and taking leave rashly was not a wise move.
"Although my appetite has increased, fortunately, there are many rabbits in the woods around the academy, which can satisfy my hunger. The ones I can't eat, I can sell in the academy."
"Once I raise so travel money, I can set off."
Tang Chuan skillfully flipped the freshly roasted rabbit. The charcoal sizzled, and the aroma filled the air, imdiately causing passing students to turn their heads frequently.
These past few days, he would go to the back mountain grass forest early every morning to set traps and bury bow-snares, then return at dusk to collect his catch, specifically targeting wild rabbits, pheasants, and occasionally even finding injured small birds.
He kept the good catches to eat himself.
The less ideal ones were butchered and made into barbecue. He set up a temporary stall to sell them at the dormitory entrance, which surprisingly attracted many students to stop and watch.
"Your rabbit slls so good… How much for one?"
"Tang Chuan, what did you do before? How do you roast it so authentically?"
"Damn it, roast a few more, I'll co back with money to buy them!"
"Co on—freshly roasted rabbit legs, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, definitely better than the porridge in the cafeteria!"
Tang Chuan skillfully flipped the at skewers, a smile playing on his lips, just about to call out a few words when he saw a familiar pink figure bouncing over from a distance.
It was Xiao Wu.
She wrinkled her nose, as if she had slled sothing infuriating.
The next mont, her expression suddenly changed, her eyes widened, staring intently at the string of rabbit legs in Tang Chuan's hand, her face turning sowhat unpleasant.
"You… you're roasting a rabbit?!" Xiao Wu's voice rose several pitches, startling the few work-study students who were waiting in line.
Tang Chuan was stunned, looked up and feigned ignorance: "Ah? Yes, what's wrong?"
Xiao Wu's face imdiately flushed red, her eyes reddened, and she stomped her foot in anger, looking like she was about to cry:
"Bunnies are so cute, how can you eat bunnies?!"
She looked incredibly wronged, pointing at the golden-brown, shiny rabbit legs on the fire, as if they weren't roasted at but her own relatives.
Hearing this, Tang Chuan's hand paused. He deliberately put on a bewildered expression, as if to say, "What are you talking about?" and said lightly:
"Why can't I eat bunnies? These rabbits can have seven or eight in a litter, several litters a year, they breed like grass. When we were in Saint Spirit Village, as soon as the vegetables in the field started to sprout in spring, they would co and steal them. The village chief even organized everyone to catch and eat them."
"Tang San and I couldn't get enough to eat back then; we survived on these things."
Tang Chuan spoke earnestly, his tone natural, a narrative based entirely on life experience, without a trace of emotional fluctuation.
But Xiao Wu listened, gritting her teeth, her eyes red with anger, and she stomped her foot fiercely, shouting:
"I don't care! You're not allowed to roast rabbits at the dorm entrance anymore!"
"If I see you roasting bunnies again, I'll, I'll flip your stall over!"
