Chapter 197: Changes in the Attributes of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle
The Godly Sea Steadying Needle looked at Ye Chen with a long face. “Has my constitution changed?” It said softly, “I didn’t notice anything at all.”
Ye Chen only nodded and walked towards Zhurong, dragging it to a secret chamber far away from the other mutated beasts.
The secret chamber was still surrounded by illusionary mist. Zhurong originally thought that Ye Chen wanted to destroy the concealment item refined from the Deep Sea Dragon’s corpse and consciously brought Ye Chen to that location. However, when they arrived at the location, Ye Chen did not move, making it puzzled.
“Why are you pulling a long face? The Beast Spirit Contract has been cleansed. It seems that the contract on Five is still effective on you, and its new constitution is quite rare. What are you unhappy about?” Zhurong asked in confusion.
Ye Chen’s expression did not show any signs of easing. “How much do you know about the constitution of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle?” He asked, “Although it has many types of Spiritual Energy, the water attribute has always been the main one. Why did it become a wood-type constitution after absorbing the Wood Marrow?”
While Little Purple was telling the Godly Sea Steadying Needle that its body was absorbing the Spiritual Energy in the Wood Marrow, Ye Chen was also using the system’s data panel to observe the situation of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.
After the Godly Sea Steadying Needle finished absorbing the Wood Marrow, its attack power did not increase significantly. It only increased by about 200 while its defense power increased by more than 1,000 in one go. Although its defense power had always been much higher than its attack power, Ye Chen still found it a little strange that there was such a huge difference in a single increase.
The Godly Sea Steadying Needle didn’t have any wood-type Mystic Abilities. If it was absorbing materials at this moment, the normal phenomenon should be that its attack and defense power would have the same increment. Even if it wasn’t an attack-type mutated beast, there shouldn’t be such a huge difference.
At this moment, a system notification appeared.
[Reminder: The contract seal of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle has been updated.]
[Reminder: The Godly Sea Steadying Needle has obtained a new constitution]
Ye Chen was not surprised by the former notification. However, he was very surprised by the latter. He quickly exited the data panel and returned to the status panel of the mutated beast. The status panel didn’t show much. It mainly showed the progress of the mutated beasts.
From the status panel, it could be seen that among the younger Divine Beasts, the Godly Sea Steadying Needle and Little Purple are going toward their adult stage, while Monkey was still a distance behind.
On the status panel, there were a few signs after the name of each Divine Beast. Before that, the signs of the other Divine Beasts were all totems of the Divine Court and a sign that showed the attributes of Spiritual Energy. Only the Godly Sea Steadying Needle and Zhurong were more special.
Zhurong had two Spiritual Energy attributes because it was a mutated beast with fire and earth attributes. Ye Chen thought that it was understandable.
The Godly Sea Steadying Needle had two totems. One was the Divine Court Totem that was flickering with golden light. The other was completely identical to the Beast Spirit Contract on its body, although it had already been extinguished to gray.
Therefore, Ye Chen knew that there were still remnants of Gao Ming’s Beast Spirit Contract on the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.
Now, the gray contract mark of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle had completely disappeared after the cleansing of the Wood Marrow. However, its blue Spiritual Energy attribute had also changed, becoming a light green wood attribute mark.
This made Ye Chen confused. 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
If the Godly Sea Steadying Needle had only absorbed the Spiritual Energy in the Wood Marrow and added another attribute to its Spiritual Energy, he would not be so surprised. However, the attribute of its Spiritual Energy actually changed directly. This made Ye Chen secretly shocked.
Water was the main Spiritual Energy attribute of the Deep Sea Dragons. If it could be replaced, would it have a bad effect on the Godly Sea Steadying Needle? Could its water-type Divine Power still be used normally? Has its original constitution completely changed?
These were all questions that Ye Chen needed to think about.
Ye Chen understood after Zhurong explained. The activated Wood Marrow had treated the Godly Sea Steadying Needle as its new host!
“It’s now being treated as the main body of the Life and Death Wood Marrow, but it’s a mutated beast with water-type Spiritual Energy after all. Will this transformation cause any bad changes to its body? For example, woodification.” Ye Chen described his problem in detail.
As far as he knew, there were relatively few wood-type mutated beasts. Most of them were control-type beasts that could use Spiritual Energy to grow and control plants. This was completely different from the situation of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle.
When he stimulated the activity of the Wood Marrow, he had injected water-type Spiritual Energy into it. It was very likely that the vitality of the Wood Marrow followed the water-type Spiritual Energy and was updated.
In this case, the Spiritual Energy in the Godly Sea Steadying Needle’s entire body might have been occupied by the Wood Marrow, which was why the attributes of its Spiritual Energy had changed.
However, it said that it could not control its Spiritual Energy well… This meant that it had not transformed into a control-type Divine Beast because of this. Ye Chen had no choice but to be prepared for something worse.
However, Zhurong clearly couldn’t understand Ye Chen’s anxiety.
“Changes will definitely happen, but this is also a good thing.” It said in doubt, “As long as Five can control the power of the Wood Marrow in his meridians through perception, it can completely switch between two types of Spiritual Energy randomly. This is too convenient, okay?”
“How do we make the Godly Sea Steadying Needle learn to control the Wood Spiritual Energy? It said that it can’t control it.” Ye Chen asked.
“This is the problem of the environment,” Zhurong replied. “Wood Spiritual Energy is different from other types of Spiritual Energy. It definitely requires the relevant elements in the environment as the foundation. But look here.”
It extended its wings and waved them.
“Are there any plants here?” It asked. “In this case, the Wood Spiritual Energy has nothing to rely on. Of course, it can only follow its meridians and circulate according to its original method.”
Ye Chen thought about it and could only nod.
There was nothing wrong with what Zhurong said. There were no plants in the ice and fire arrays, and the Spiritual Energy of the Godly Sea Steadying Needle was affected by the Wood Spiritual Energy. Its perception was abnormal, causing it to be unable to adjust itself. This phenomenon was considered normal.
“What about the solution?” He continued to ask.
Zhurong patted the ground with its claws.
“The solution is here.” It said, “After breaking this cover, hand it to Five. This is refined from the corpses of its own kind. There is still the Spiritual Energy of the Deep Sea Dragons circulating in it. Let it absorb the Spiritual Energy here to increase the strength of its original kind and adjust its original attributes.”
Then, it looked at Ye Chen again.
“As for the use of the wood attribute… you’ll know when we get out.”
