Chapter 396 The Tiger in the Painting, Terrified After Being Beaten Up
After suppressing his grimacing expression, Cangnian slowly walked back to the group.
He was afraid that if he walked too fast, he wouldn't be able to keep his expression in check.
Since you're going to show off, go all the way.
Otherwise, you'll lose all your prestige, and wouldn't that be a waste of time?
At this moment, not only Kato Kengo, a Japanese national, but also the evolved beings in the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom, as well as the tigers of the Forest Garden, involuntarily straightened their bodies.
This is a sign of respect for the strong.
The brief but powerful attack that Cangnian had just unleashed was so terrifying that no one present, no evolved creature, was confident of surviving such an onslaught.
Even the little sable is no exception.
Although the ability to become invisible allows one to hide in a demiplane parallel to the main space, ignoring all attacks.
But the prerequisite is that you hide inside before you get killed.
Cang Nian's movements were already too blurry to see with the naked eye, so Little Purple Sable didn't think it would be long before she could enter the ethereal state.
"Ow~!"
After a short while, Cangnian looked at the little ferret and found it looked somewhat weak, so he asked about the tiger in the painting.
Zhizhi~!
Upon hearing Cangnian's question, the little ferret quickly used the spatial imprint left by the little sable to retrieve the giant scroll from its storage space.
As the scroll unfolds, an identical tiger appears on the previously blank scroll.
However, the tiger in the painting was not stationary as before; it immediately came to life after the painting was unfurled!
Ouch~!
The tiger in the painting saw the old man and tried to retreat, but because the little ferret hadn't depicted the depth of the scene, it couldn't retreat at all.
Then, it immediately ran to the right side of the scroll, but when it reached the scroll's axis, it crashed into a wall and fell down inside the scroll with a howl.
Upon seeing this, Cang Nian was delighted.
"It seems that, just as the little ferret said, death in the outside world will lead to rebirth in the painting."
Moreover, it will retain the original memories.
That's good. This way, we don't have to worry about it forgetting how to fight after it died once, and we can tame it properly!
Cang Nian analyzed it with great interest.
The skill that the little ferret gains when it evolves to the fourth stage is to use the blood of a creature of the same origin to enhance the image in the painting.
If it were nourished with the blood of a tiger, its power might only be at the level of an ordinary fourth-order evolved tiger.
Such power is probably impossible for even the creator, the little ferret, to be unable to command.
This means it is a collection of the blood essence of hundreds of tigers. Not only is the quantity large and the quality high, but the blood essence is also the essence of fresh blood, making the tiger in this painting exceptionally powerful.
Cang Nian has never seen a peer who can withstand his second-level overlimit burst.
This tiger in the painting is probably the first one.
This is why the little ferret couldn't control itself.
Looking at the little ferret's weakened state again, Cangnian guessed that this was because the tiger in the painting had died and was reborn in the painting, requiring the little ferret, the summoner, to consume spiritual power to reshape it.
However, since it only consumed the little ferret's own spiritual power, the reborn tiger in the painting is far from being as strong as it was before it was killed.
If the little ferret doesn't join its team, even if it evolves to the fourth tier, it will be too difficult to perfectly unleash its scroll ability.
Firstly, it cannot obtain the blood of so many powerful creatures of the same origin.
Even if you obtain it, activating it is extremely difficult.
After all, judging from the current situation, the more targets that use blood, and the stronger they are, the better the "foundation" of this scroll-shaped creature will be.
The better the foundation, the greater the energy required for activation.
Without the support of Tiger Dad's Black Flame Domain, it would probably take the little ferret several days to activate the tiger in the painting on its own, requiring a cycle of injecting and restoring spiritual energy before it could succeed.
And now, the tiger in the painting has died in the outside world, and it needs to be re-infused with spiritual energy to restore it to its full strength.
That took several more days.
Therefore, if we calculate it, the little ferret's painting ability has evolved to the fourth level. In a powerful team, it can exert a very high limit, but if it fights alone, it is just an ordinary fourth-level evolved creature.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Cang Nian's second-gear super limit burst easily killed him.
But in reality, if it were Tiger Dad instead, if he didn't use elemental transformation to avoid pure physical combat, Cang Nian thinks Tiger Dad would be killed very quickly.
The tiger in the painting has no special abilities, but its basic attributes are incredibly powerful.
Its base stats are even higher than its own Tier 1 Overlimit Burst!
Thinking of this, Cang Nian's mind became even more active.
Since tigers can do it, can we use the blood essence of other creatures to cultivate a few scroll-like creatures?
Judging from the tiger's behavior in the painting, its activities do not require the little ferret to maintain its spiritual power.
As long as the initial spiritual energy is injected, it will not cause the little ferret any burden during the battle.
The existence of one more such scroll-like creature is equivalent to the existence of one more fourth-tier powerhouse that far surpasses ordinary fourth-tier evolved creatures.
However, considering that among the Northeast Allied Forces of the Dragon Kingdom, apart from tigers, there are no other creatures that simultaneously meet the two conditions of being physically strong and numerous.
Humanity?
That's quite a lot.
But the human body is not strong.
Who knows what kind of fantastical creatures will be created by gathering the blood essence of millions of people?
Perhaps, it will develop in the direction of intelligence.
But this makes them more dangerous than other creatures in the painting.
If an artificial human with intelligence far surpassing that of others were to appear among the population, it would be difficult to predict how things would develop.
"However, you can also use various marine creatures to cultivate several corresponding scroll-shaped creatures."
For example, whales would be a good choice.
They are physically strong, and although their numbers are not large, you can still encounter some when hunting.
"Not too many, just a few dozen or a hundred whales should be enough to raise a scroll whale as powerful as this tiger in the painting!"
Then, Cangnian had another idea.
In short, the changes in the little ferret after evolving to the fourth stage are really impressive.
In gaming terms, it's highly playable!
Buzz buzz~!
Just as Cang Nian was easing the physical burden brought on by the second-level overlimit burst while pondering more possibilities for the Little Ferret's Scroll ability, a series of auras rose up from their original positions!
