81: Slime evolution, daughter of the virtual sea!

It seemed to see through its thoughts.

Xiao Tian's eyes grew colder.

"I'll help you evolve to High-Grade, but after that, you can't slack off anymore."

Hearing Fang Ran's words.

The Slime nodded vigorously.

It desperately wanted to become stronger.

As long as it could become stronger, it was willing to give anything.

There were still its imprisoned kin in Feng City, waiting for it to rescue them.

"But, can I really advance to High-Grade?" It had never seen its kin evolve.

Even the strongest Slime in the kin was born at that level.

Fang Ran looked at the panel.

A series of advancement directions appeared.

[Evolution Paths: Lava Slime, Virulent Poison Slime, Slime Queen...]

Aside from Slimes of different attributes.

Only the Slime Queen was relatively special, possessing a unique title.

"I brought money from Feng Ge, it should be enough for it to evolve to a High-Grade level."

"Advance the materials for the Slime Queen!"

Fang Ran's thoughts stirred.

[Advanced: Heart of Curse, Jujube Bamboo, Black Viscous Stone, Slime Flower, Thunder Sand...]

[Missing Breakthrough-Grade Digestion skill.]

Five S-Grade High-Grade materials landed, including a forbidden item, the Heart of Curse, emitting black energy.

A Breakthrough-Grade skill is needed. Ordinary Slimes probably can't upgrade their skills to Breakthrough-Grade.

"The skill level isn't high enough, it can only be trained by digesting food."

Fang Ran took out a piece of meat he had prepared from his Beast Taming Space.

"Gulp!"

The Slime Devoured the chunk of meat and began digesting it.

This was food specifically used for raising Slimes, capable of rapidly increasing volume.

"One piece takes an hour to digest, so a day should be enough."

Fang Ran calculated the time; it would take about five days to train it to Breakthrough-Grade.

After all, it was just a trash skill, it wouldn't take long.

Seeing how dedicated Fang Ran was, the Slime was deeply moved. Looking at the Angel beside it, which had already begun operating its Evolution Method and whose body was emitting a faint light.

An Evolution Method... when could it train an Evolution Method?

This was something it had never dared to imagine before.

Noticing it was being stared at, Xiao Tian gave it a indifferent glance and said:

"I hope you're not wasting Master's time."

A second Beast, even if its connection to its Master was severed, the impact wouldn't be too severe.

Unlike a life-bound Beast, which concerns the future of the Beast Tamer.

Thinking this, Xiao Tian couldn't help but lift her fair, delicate chin.

These words clearly stimulated the Slime, and it immediately began vigorously digesting the food in its belly, causing more bubbles to appear from the chunk of meat inside.

A few days later.

Fang Ran repaid the advanced evolution materials, exhausting his savings of one million.

Besides attending classes at the academy daily, he would also take Xiao Tian to the back mountain to train with Long Yu.

Xiao Tian's combat level also advanced by leaps and bounds.

Finally, on the fifth day.

The Slime's skill also reached Breakthrough-Grade!

[Imitation (Mastered): Can skillfully Imitate objects and possess part of their aura.]

[Digestion (Breakthrough): Can rapidly digest items and convert them into a part of its body.]

In the basement.

The Slime turned into a gigantic bottle of cola, currently bubbling.

And inside its body, the food was being rapidly digested!

"Gulp!"

The Slime quickly shrank back.

Becoming several times larger than before.

"It keeps getting bigger the more it eats, will this room still be able to fit it later?"

"No, Master, I can control my size!"

The Slime quickly shrunk, returning to its original appearance.

But its body became clearer and more solid.

"Before, I didn't dare to eat much in the city, I would be discovered and caught."

"Mm, good. Devour these materials, it's time for you to evolve!" Fang Ran took out the previous materials.

Before throwing them to it, he suddenly thought of something.

"Advance the [Digestion (Breakthrough)] skill!"

[Consume 10 Gene Points to advance the Digestion skill?]

"Confirm!"

Fang Ran still had 20 Gene Points available.

[Obtained skill Devour (Proficient)!]

[Devour (Proficient): After Devouring an object, can obtain 10% of its properties!]

[Remaining Debt: Devour 20 objects and digest them!]

10% of the properties?

At this moment, the Slime only felt the digestion of the meat chunk within its body, giving its physique a slight increase in strength!

It was as if it had assimilated a portion of the power!

Also at this time, the Slime Queen's evolution direction transformed!

[Daughter of the Void Sea]

Before Fang Ran could act, the Slime swallowed Fang Ran's entire hand. As it slid away, all the evolution materials in his hand were taken.

As the evolution materials were being digested one by one, the power of the Heart of Curse was also assimilating into its body!

[Devour (Proficient): 6/20!]

"Sizzle!"

Burning power!

Causing its gelatinous body to continuously emit steam!

"Digest all the materials!" Fang Ran reminded.

The Slime, in pain, was silent for a moment, and then vigorously began digesting the materials one by one!

Recalling everything it had experienced, it suddenly felt that the current pain was nothing!

Even the one beside it.

Xiao Tian, who had been continuously operating her Evolution Method, couldn't help but glance at it twice.

More than ten minutes later.

The Slime's body had gradually transformed into a deep purple color.

It gained the outline of a melting wax figure, with slimy arms covered in flowing mucus, and a face largely obscured by viscous hair, only a pair of faintly visible eyes and lightly pursed lips could be seen. Streams of melting wax flowed on the ground, forming its lower body.

If someone walked past it at night, it would definitely scare them sick.

[Daughter of the Void Sea]

[Level: High-Grade Early Stage]

[Skills: Imitation (Mastered), Devour (Proficient), Xu Hai Domain (Beginner), Void Spirit Curse (Beginner), Void Thorn (Beginner)]

[Introduction: The Slime Queen existing at the border of the Void Sea, capable of commanding Low-Grade Slimes!]

[Xu Hai Domain (Beginner): Deploy the Xu Hai Domain, can summon Cursed Slimes from within for attack and defense.]

[Void Spirit Curse (Beginner): All beings tainted by its body will have a Void Spirit Mark stacked, which can be tracked and triggered to cause damage!]

[Void Thorn (Beginner): Summon a spike, corroding hit objects and stacking a Void Spirit Mark!]

The Slime extended a hand, looking at the flowing purple mucus.

It felt disbelief at everything happening before its eyes.

It had really evolved!

The power within its body was something it had never felt before!

"How is it? How does it feel?" Fang Ran asked.

It extended a hand.

A spike made of purple mucus flew out from its feet!

The solidified spike instantly pierced the wooden sofa, leaving traces of corrosion on it!

With a wave, the spike instantly retracted, replenishing its body.

This level of attack power was something it had never dared to imagine before.

"Can you change back? Or can you only stay like this?" Fang Ran asked.

The Slime tried, and the short, humanoid outline gradually dissolved, turning into a basketball-sized deep purple blob.

"It's the same form as Xiao Tian, it can mislead others."

Fang Ran was very satisfied.

The Daughter of the Void Sea was at least a pet far exceeding A level!

And he had only spent a little over a million.

Thinking of this, Fang Ran felt a pang of pain. He was now penniless, he hadn't even finished paying off Xiao Tian's advancement debt, and now he had taken in another demanding creature.
