Acai's Sky

Chapter 961: Rebirth of the Soul-Suppressing Beast

When the light of the teleportation array under Acai's feet dissipated, the salty sea breeze, carrying the fragrance of grass and trees, blew towards her face.

She rubbed her eyes which were sore from the mist, and the scene before her frightened her so much that she almost let go of the little girl in her arms.

The originally bare island has turned into a lush secret land. Vines all over the mountains are entwined with glowing crystal trees, and the leaves reflect a rainbow-like halo. Even the sand on the beach has a pearly luster.

"It's only been a short time, and there have been so many changes!" Acai took a walk on the beach, took off her shoes and socks, and walked barefoot on the sand.

Look at the collected fragments of light balls and quickly click to submit.

[Ding, player child Acai handed in 13985 fragments, and received a total of 4195500 Temple Crystal Coins]

The moonlight coated the beach with silver frost, and the bronze armor of Qin general Wang Li reflected the cold light. He bent his knuckles and gently poked the glutinous rice ball in Acai's arms.

The little fellow had curled up into a furry snowball, but his ears trembled when he was poked, and the tip of his pink nose wrinkled. He suddenly opened his mouth and bit the wristband of Qin General Wang Li, but because his baby teeth had not grown in yet, only a circle of wet saliva marks was left.

"Have we got another spiritual beast? What's its name?" Qin general Wang Li shook his arm, and the Taotie pattern on the wristband was shining with saliva.

The glutinous rice ball became more and more aggressive, crawling up his arm to his shoulder, and its fluffy tail swept across his neck, making the cold-faced general so itchy that he turned his head away, which was unusual.

"The glutinous rice balls... just started."

Ah Cai reached out to grab the mischievous Tuanzi, but it deftly dodged her fingertips. The little creature leaped onto her head, its claws tugging at the silver ornaments in her hair and dangling them, the dried Lycoris radiata petals on its ears swaying gently with its movements.

"This little thing hasn't grown up yet. There are a bunch of young cubs in the master's house!" Li Xin stood with his arms folded in the shadow of the floating fortress, and the dragon sword on his waist was shining coldly.

Before he could finish his words, Nuomituan suddenly arched his back, let out a fierce growl from his throat, and ice-blue mist rose around him. The sand on the beach instantly condensed into ice crystal arrows, pointing directly at the stern general.

00541 "Whoosh" shot out from Ah Cai's clothes, somersaulted in the air, and fluffed up his furry tail, sending out a string of sparks. "Don't look at me as a child, my abilities are no less than those of the mythical beasts, and I'll be even more powerful after I evolve!"

As soon as it finished speaking, the glutinous rice ball suddenly soared into the air, its small body stretching out in the air and transforming into the shadow of an ice dragon. Wherever the dragon's tail swept past, the sea water condensed into a huge ice sculpture, a lifelike Great Wall.

Qin general Wang Li suddenly pressed down the long sword at his waist, but his pupils dilated slightly in surprise.

Qin general Li Xin's sword was already three inches out of its sheath, but he froze in place when he saw the details of the ice sculpture - the patterns of the bricks on the ice sculpture, the eaves of the watchtower, and even the arrow holes on the battlements were exactly the same as the Great Wall in his memory.

"See?" 00541 said proudly, hands on his hips. "This little guy can visualize other people's memories! He just reproduced the thing you, General Li Xin, miss the most!"

The glutinous rice ball cried out "Awooo", and the shadow of the ice dragon disappeared, turning back into a furry ball. It stumbled back into Acai's arms, and stretched out its pink little tongue to lick her fingers, as if asking for praise.

Ah Cai smiled and pinched its paw pads, and suddenly felt a heaviness in her arms.

The fur of the glutinous rice ball began to glow, and fine scales appeared on its body surface. Its originally round body stretched three inches longer, and the red spider lily petals on its ears actually blossomed into new buds.

The crystal trees in the distance suddenly trembled collectively, and countless luminous spores gathered into streams of light and poured into the glutinous rice group.

"Evolved!" 00541 excitedly circled around Tuanzi, "Hurry up and check out the attribute panel!"

Ah Cai's mind moved, and a light blue screen popped up before her eyes: [Spiritual Beast: Glutinous Rice Ball (Larva Stage 2) Ability: ... Hidden Talent: ...]

Qin General Li Xin sheathed his sword and smiled, "I underestimated it."

Wang Li stretched out his hand to touch the newly grown dragon horns of the glutinous rice ball, but the little guy dodged it nimbly and threw ice chips in his face.

In the moonlight, Tuanzi's new scales shone with a pearly luster. The way it tilted its head to look at Acai looked like a cat asking for dried fish.

"Let's go get you some spiritual food."

A Cai scratched the tip of Nuomituan's nose, and the little guy immediately rubbed her palm happily.

Behind him, Wang Li and Li Xin looked at each other, shook their heads and laughed at the same time - who would have thought that this soft little guy actually had the power to shock veterans on the battlefield.

Ah Cai was holding a soft glutinous rice ball as she sat in the command cabin of the floating fortress. The holographic star map on the top of the cabin was flashing the coordinates of the fragments of the Ten Thousand Worlds.

She gently stroked Tuanzi's newly grown pearly scales and turned her gaze to Tong Jiayuan, who was busy at the operating table. "How's the situation with the Chinese military?"

As the words fell, Nuomituan suddenly sneezed, and a string of sparkling little ice spikes came out, which formed a miniature ice sculpture Great Wall on the ground.

Tong Jiayuan pushed his gold-rimmed glasses and slid his fingers rapidly across the suspended holographic panel, and a dark blue data stream poured down like a waterfall.

Those streams of light intertwined into a chat interface and email list, and from time to time, the exclusive emblem of the Chinese military popped up - on a red background, five gilded stars surrounded an ancient bronze tripod, casting fine light and shadows in the cabin.

"There are quite a few of them, and their success rate in completing the fragments has reached 50%. They have made a lot of money and bought a lot of high-end goods in the Temple Mall!" Tong Jiayuan called up a dynamic video. In the video, dozens of military personnel in black armor were fighting fiercely with a mechanical giant.

The silver-haired female general in the lead swung out a chain blade, and the shadow of a thunder dragon wrapped around the tail of the blade instantly tore through the outer shell of the colossus, scattering parts and purple crystal cores all over the sky.

Ah Cai leaned closer to the screen, her pupils slightly dilated in surprise.

In the picture, the defensive shield activated by a young soldier was actually a hexagonal rune array that she had never seen before. The golden lines flowing on the edge were similar to the spiritual patterns of the underworld.

Nuomituan also came over curiously, scratching the holographic projection with his claws, causing ripples on the screen.

"The most interesting thing is this." Tong Jiayuan's lips curled up as he switched to the Chinese military's transaction record interface. He saw that they had used the ancient star map fragments they had collected to exchange for a "Space-Time Anchor" from the mall—a magical artifact that could temporarily stabilize a shattered plane.

00541 suddenly jumped out from the corner, swept its tail across the holographic panel, and called up the recent battle record list of the Chinese military.

Among the densely packed records, the most eye-catching one is their breakthrough in the "Kunlun Ruins Secret Realm": not only did they tame three Lei Ze Kuiniu, but they also accidentally activated the hidden copy of the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array".

At the end of the list, a warning was written in bright red font: [The Chinese military has mastered space folding technology. It is recommended that all forces cooperate with caution.]

"Looks like I have to find some time to visit." Ah Cai picked up the glutinous rice ball with a smile. The little guy was using his claws to slap the simulation diagram of the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Great Array", and the shattered light spots turned into falling meteors.

She swiped her finger across the screen and sent a message in the Chinese military's chat channel, ending it with an animated emoticon of Nuomituan sticking out his tongue.

Outside the window, the defensive cannons on the edge of the island suddenly lit up with a faint blue light, startling a group of spirit birds perched on the crystal tree.

Tong Jiayuan looked at the real-time battle report, his eyes gleaming with excitement behind his glasses. "The Chinese military just sent an invitation. They've discovered the coordinates of what appear to be fragments of the 'Xuanyuan Sword Tomb' and are asking if we want to join forces..."

Ah Cai raised her eyebrows when she heard that, and the glutinous rice ball in her arms suddenly made a cheerful "wooo" sound, and the scales on her body shone brightly.

Inside the command cabin, the coordinates of the Xuanyuan Sword Tomb on the holographic star map were flashing wildly, as if calling for a new adventure.

origin

The origin of the little dumpling is mysterious and legendary.

It is a descendant of the soul-suppressing beast that guarded the important seal of the underworld in ancient times. Its clan is responsible for suppressing evil spirits and maintaining the balance of yin and yang.

Over the long years, the Soul-Suppressing Beast Clan has experienced countless brutal battles, guarding the peace of the Yin and Yang worlds.

However, a shocking battle caused heavy casualties among the Soul-Suppressing Beast tribe and severely damaged the sealing power.

Descendants of Tushan (0936) Under the ghost cemetery of the Yin House, there is a powerful thousand-year-old evil spirit suppressed, and Xiaotuanzi is one of the soul-suppressing beasts sent here to help guard the seal.

It suppressed the riots of evil spirits with its own strength and held its ground alone in the darkness deep underground for hundreds of years.

During the long years, the little dumpling not only had to resist the invasion of evil spirits, but also had to endure the backlash of the sealing power. His body and strength were severely consumed, and he eventually fell into a deep sleep, turning into a fluffy little beast, and was buried under the soil of the cemetery.

It wasn't until Ah Cai entered the area to perform a mission that the little dumpling sensed Ah Cai's unique aura and the powerful power of the red spider lily coffin, which awakened its dormant consciousness. It emerged from the soil and met Ah Cai, embarking on a new adventure.

Skill:

Basic skills:

1. Ice Breath: Dumpling can blast an icy blue breath from his mouth, instantly freezing enemies. The frozen target's movements are restricted, and ice-attribute damage is significantly increased. This skill's power increases with Dumpling's level, and the range and duration of the freeze also increase accordingly.

2. Psychic Perception: As a spirit-suppressing beast, Tuanzi possesses a keen sense of presence, able to detect nearby spirits, demons, and hidden enemies. It can provide early warnings of danger and provide crucial intelligence to the team, allowing them to prepare for any potential dangers.

3. Healing Lick: Licking injured companions with their tongue can heal wounds and alleviate injuries through their own spiritual power. While the healing effect cannot compare to professional healing items or skills, it can buy valuable time for companions to recover in an emergency.

Advanced skills:

1. Soul-Calming Resonance: When the Little Dumpling resonates with the Higanbana Coffin or Soul-Calming Orb, it unleashes a powerful soul-calming force. This force can purify evil spirits, dispel Yin energy, and deal heavy damage to Yin-attributed enemies. It also enhances the soul power of nearby allies, improving their combat capabilities.

2. Ice Spirit Shield: Dumpling uses his own spiritual energy to condense a solid ice spirit shield to protect himself and his allies. The shield not only resists physical attacks but also absorbs some spell damage. While the shield is in effect, it also deals continuous ice damage to nearby enemies.

3. Shadow Assault: Dumpling can instantly transform into a streak of light, darting across the battlefield and launching unexpected attacks. Its extreme speed allows it to strike the enemy's vital points multiple times in a short period of time, dealing continuous damage. Furthermore, during its assault, Dumpling can skillfully dodge enemy attacks, greatly enhancing its survivability.

Ultimate Skill:

1. Heaven and Earth Soul-Calming Technique: At crucial moments, Little Dumpling can mobilize the soul-calming power of heaven and earth, unleashing a powerful ultimate skill. He transforms into a gigantic soul-calming phantom, wielding a giant soul-calming blade, unleashing a devastating attack on all enemies within range. This skill not only deals immense damage but also has various effects, such as calming the soul and stunning, turning the tide of battle in a short period of time. However, this skill consumes a significant amount of energy, leaving Little Dumpling in a prolonged state of weakness after using it.

Evolutionary form:

Larval stage - plush pet form

At this stage, the little ball looks like a fluffy ball, with soft and fluffy gray fur, two big wet eyes that reveal innocence and purity, and dried Lycoris radiata petals pinned on its drooping ears, looking extremely cute.

During this period, Xiaotuanzi's power has not yet fully awakened, and his skills are still in the primary stage, mainly focusing on assistance and reconnaissance.

Growth Type - Ice Spirit War Beast Form

As the little dumpling continues to fight, absorb spiritual energy, and develop a better understanding with Acai, it enters a growth phase. Its size increases, its fur becomes smoother and gleams with an ice-blue sheen, its ears become more erect, and its eyes sharpen.

Its limbs are strong and powerful, its claws are covered with crystal clear ice armor, and its tail has become thick, with sharp ice spikes growing at the end.

In this form, Xiaotuanzi's various skills are significantly improved, and his combat capability is greatly enhanced, allowing him to play an important role on the battlefield.

Mature - Ancient Soul Keeper Form

When the little dumpling accumulates enough strength and completes all the evolutionary conditions, it will evolve into the mature form of the ancient soul-soothing envoy.

At this time, it was huge in size, exuding a majestic aura. A pair of huge ice-blue wings spread out behind it, and mysterious runes flowed on the wings.

Two huge ice horns grew on its head, the fangs in its mouth flashed with cold light, and its body was covered with indestructible ice armor, which was engraved with ancient soul-calming patterns.

In this form, the little dumpling will not only be able to freely perform all his skills, but will also unlock more powerful abilities, becoming a powerful being guarding the Yin and Yang worlds, with enough power to deter evil spirits from all directions.
