By Seeing Beasts' Training Paths, My Beast Became Invincible-Chapter 45: Corpsehand Flower

(Sorry, Matt. I need this old man to treat my sister.)

Rocky sighed and rubbed Matt’s head to comfort him. The black cat just nodded and continued to sleep lazily.

Rocky knew that Matt’s murderous intent always had legitimate reasons. He never wanted to kill someone just for the sake of mere killing.

He wondered what Pope Luke carried or had done to draw Matt’s hatred.

He couldn’t read the intentions behind that gentle face.

That bastard was an experienced fox. He would’ve been nearly tricked by that kind face if his beasts hadn’t sent him a clear warning.

Luke still smiled brightly as he approached the deepest part of the garden.

At some point, a thick mist stood before them, so dense they couldn’t see anything through it.

Luke spoke while pointing ahead.

"Well, it’s hard to say... Some plants have the ability to release a very strong negative aura. They resonate with each other to grow. So I try to arrange them in a group, far away from the normal plants."

He added, "However, since the density of the negative aura is very heavy, they’re even able to kill beasts... I’m afraid that..."

His voice carried a hint of worry as his eyes rested on Bobby.

Rocky nodded.

"It’s fine. Thank you for your concern. My beast will handle it well."

Luke chuckled.

"If so, your beast can go in. For now, the garden belongs to him. But you’ll only take one."

Bobby jumped off Rocky’s shoulder and returned to his original form.

Soon, a gigantic ape appeared in front of Rocky and Luke. Obsidian armor materialized over his body.

He summoned a longsword, his eyes gleaming deathly through the helmet.

At this moment, he looked like a knight ready for a life-or-death match.

Rocky and Luke were surprised by Bobby’s actions. But they just shrugged. Each of them had their own thoughts at this moment.

Bobby brandished his longsword several times before slowly stepping into the thick mist.

Five minutes later, they began to hear violent noises from within.

The sounds of weapons clashing and the roars of some kind of monsters echoed from inside.

The dense negative aura even spread to where Rocky stood.

Rocky frowned.

"Uhm... sir, may I ask something? Do you raise monsters or something in there? I think my beast is fighting something like that."

Luke rubbed his chin in confusion.

"Tch, sorry, but I don’t know. I’ve never raised any monsters as guards there. None of the beasts would even go near that mist."

"But... indeed, I have the same question as you."

Five minutes later, the sounds slowly faded into silence. From the dark mist, Bobby’s figure began to appear clearly. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

He slowly stepped out of the thick mist. His armor was soaked in the blood of the being he had just killed.

But that wasn’t what Rocky and Luke cared about. They only noticed the gigantic flower, each petal shaped like a human hand.

An old human face lay in the center of the flower, groaning in pain with its eyes closed.

This terrifying scene completely stunned Rocky and Luke.

"A new plant?"

Rocky asked.

"What kind of plant is that, Pope Luke? I didn’t expect you to possess such a horrific plant."

However, when his eyes fell on Luke’s face, Rocky frowned in confusion.

A serious expression — or maybe it was just a fake one.

It seemed the plant didn’t belong to the garden — or worse.

Bobby dragged the monstrous plant over his shoulders before tossing it to the ground — the face in the center of the flower groaned nonstop.

An eerie sound that would scare anyone.

At that moment, Luke spoke up.

"To be honest, I don’t know what that plant is. I suppose a new one, by chance, grew in the unique environment I created."

Rocky nodded in understanding.

"That makes sense."

Rocky glanced at Bobby for a moment and said,

"So I can still take that plant."

Luke smiled and nodded slightly.

"Of course."

Rocky slowly approached the plant. He gazed at the wrinkled, pale face in the center of the flower.

He lingered for a while and triggered his [Verdant Insight] skill.

Name: Corpsehand Flower

Rank: Noble

Description: A devilish, monstrous flower that grows in a highly negative environment. Moreover, it possesses huge potential to reach Holy Rank by bathing in the pure blood of humans and beasts... yet whether it can truly reach Holy Rank remains a question.

By using its hand-like petals, beasts can significantly increase their innate stats. However, the effect vanishes after one use.

But the most valuable part of this plant is the face in the center of the flower. It can boost harmonic resonance between a beast and the world.

Rocky nodded as he read the runes in front of him, focusing.

"I see... grows in a highly negative environment... possesses huge potential to reach Holy Rank by bathing in pure blood... and boosts harmonic resonance..."

He clicked his tongue in annoyance, trying to digest the information.

In short, what he didn’t understand was the so-called harmonic resonance boost.

(What could that be?)

He decided to remember the method of growing this plant and try it after returning to the Plant Association. But for now, he had something more important to do.

Rocky nodded at Matt and Bobby. Both of them quickly ate the petals of the Corpsehand Flower.

Rocky smirked as he glanced at his beasts’ stats. Ever since he tamed Bobby and Matt, they had eaten quite a lot of noble plants. Their innate stats had reached level 45–50 — he could tell that.

With innate stats like that, a lot of enemies would be stunned by the true power hidden behind his beasts’ low levels.

It was perfect camouflage.

But he couldn’t be too overconfident. He believed the beasts from other lands were also fed plenty of noble plants.

He had to keep his feet on the ground.

However, at that moment, Bobby suddenly jumped in excitement, and a sound swiftly rang out.

Ting!
