Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 150: The Mutant Sword Body! The Path of Evolution for the Little Paper Man?


In just a short time, the body of the little paper figurine had grown a full size larger than before.

"WAAH!"

As the Paper Sword pointed forward, amidst the cries of the little paper figurine, its blade pierced right through both the training dummy and the sturdy wall, leaving a deep mark.

However, Qian Yi hadn't used the Jinge Technique, and the sharpness of the Paper Sword alone shouldn't have been enough for such a feat.

Su Ping didn't rush to use the Eye of Truth. Instead, he observed the little paper figurine's movements, gaining an intuitive understanding of Qian Yi's new skill.

Compared to the Jinge Technique, this new skill seemed more enduring.

The Jinge Technique, when deployed, only imbued a single attack with extreme sharpness. Moreover, the Perfection Level Jinge Technique also made that one sword strike much faster than the release of other skills.

It could be considered a trump card, a finishing move type of skill.

But now, the skill Qian Yi was currently deploying remained continuous. Although its power was far less than the Perfection Level Jinge Technique, this endurance was more significant.

Moreover, the newly comprehended skill was evidently only at the Beginner Level.

Su Ping was already quite satisfied that a skill at this level could possess such power and effect.

Finally, the light of spiritual power concentrated in Su Ping's eyes and locked onto Qian Yi, the little paper figurine holding the Paper Sword.

The Eye of Truth provided feedback on Qian Yi's enhancements after his advancement!

[Mutated Paperman (Contracted)]

[Attribute: Gold, Undead]

[Current Level: Elite First Rank]

[Racial Potential: Elite First Rank]

[Skills: Paper Body Folding (Proficiency), Jinge Technique (Perfection), Sword Soul Mark (Special), Accelerated Casting (Proficiency), Mutated·Paper Body Control (Proficiency), Mutated·Sword Body (Beginner)]

Sword Body? And it's a Mutated Skill?! Su Ping's eyebrows lifted slightly.

Mutated Skills were skills that had appeared on other Pet Beasts before, but after mutation, their effects differed from the skill's normal effects. That was the essence of a Mutated Skill! Take Xiao Qing's 'Poison Vine Strangulation', for instance. Strictly speaking, it could be considered a Poison Type mutation of Vine Strangling. However, some Poison Type plant Pet Beasts actually possessed such skills. Compared to those, Xiao Qing's Poison Vine Strangulation had no real particular uniqueness and, therefore, wouldn't be considered a Mutated Skill. A Mutated Skill, like the Heart of the Poison Wood, was truly a unique skill belonging to a Pet Beast!

And now, another Mutated Skill had appeared on Qian Yi, the little paper figurine? Another Mutated Skill, just like the previous Paper Body Control. Sword Body?

This skill was not unfamiliar to Su Ping. The reason was simple: he had seen it on some Sword Pet Beasts inside the Secret Realm of the Fengdu Sword King. It was a very common skill, even more common for Artifact Pet Beasts that were Sword Devices than the 'Jinge Technique'. Sword Body allowed Artifact Pet Beasts that were Sword Devices to further control and enhance the power of the energy attached to their bodies and the sword itself. Overall, it was a Basic Skill for most Sword-type Pet Beasts. Sword Body and Jinge Technique were the two most abundant skills found on the Rotten Sword in that Secret Realm, and also the most common.

However, from what he had just seen, Su Ping hadn't really discerned any significant differences between the little paper figurine's mutated Sword Body and other instances of Sword Body.

Instantly, the Eye of Truth locked on once more, and the little paper figurine's skills were clearly displayed before Su Ping's eyes.

[Mutated·Sword Body (Beginner): Can enable the body to control energy and attach it to the body and sword, enhancing the power and speed of the sword strikes.

Mutated Effect: Countless practices have led the Paperman to a deeper understanding of the sword. Now, with the integration of energy and the sword, it can comprehend 'Swordsmanship' skills based on independent thought!]

(Note: This special skill cannot be improved through practice. It can only be enhanced by comprehending 'Swordsmanship' skills!)

What?! Su Ping stared at the mutated effect of the little paper figurine's skill.

Compared to Xiao Qing's Heart of the Poison Wood, whose mutated effect was merely absorbing Poison Type energy to nourish itself, and Old Sha's Heart of Woods, whose mutated effect allowed it to transform freely between a wooden form and an animal body, the little paper figurine's new Mutated Skill once again exceeded Su Ping's understanding. He had initially thought that the little paper figurine's mutated Sword Body would also enhance the power of the sword. He never expected the direction of the mutation to be so bizarre. Could it comprehend so-called 'Swordsmanship' skills through the combination of its own energy and sword techniques?

Su Ping blinked, remembering the basic swordsmanship movements the little paper figurine had practiced countless times at his behest. Basic moves like thrusting, flicking, and slashing. Could it be that the little paper figurine had comprehended such a special Mutated Skill because of the practice he had initially instructed? Was it due to a fluke, combined with the little paper figurine's own unique nature, that such a special Mutated Skill was comprehended? Yes! He truly was a Genius Breeder. He had anticipated this situation all along!

Su Ping paid no attention to the Paperman, still excitedly holding the Paper Sword, and instead sat down on the ground.

At that moment, the first thing that came to his mind was, indeed, those martial arts movies.
