More Cautious

Xi Xiu knew that the Anvile People had another form, but no one had ever seen it.

So the fact that The Untrustworthy could shift between plants and animals should have been their innate ability. It was just that their plant forms were far stronger.

This time, they had appeared in such forms while retaining only a third of their original appearance.

Xi Xiu asked again, "Could they freely switch between animal and plant forms in the past?"

A Xian thought for a moment, dredging up those long-buried memories. "No. Their fundamental form was humanoid. To use the power of plants, they had to become plants completely. Afterward, they could never return to human form."

This greatly surprised Xi Xiu. Since they could not revert, they must still exist somewhere in their habitat.

"Wouldn't they live longer after becoming plants?" Xi Xiu knew that plants in Jingsu had very long lifespans.

But A Xian shook her head. "Transforming into plants consumed an enormous amount of energy. They would basically die immediately after carrying out an attack."

The Untrustworthy would only fully transform into plants when their lives were in danger. After delivering a fatal blow to their opponent, they would become seeds.

If they had not accumulated enough strength and could not find a suitable environment to germinate, they would remain seeds indefinitely.

During that time, their memories of the past would gradually fade. In the end, they would choose to retain memories most beneficial to their race and discard those that were unimportant.

Xi Xiu sighed. If they had not treated the Anvile People that way, perhaps they would not have ended in such decline.

The two talked as they dealt with the huge pit left behind after the Teleportation Channel was destroyed.
