True Soaring Water Riding Waves!
Ze Cauldron shone brightly, scattering points of light onto Awei and his Fist.
The evolutionary situation is similar to that of the Cannot Move and Fat Catfish, but the scale is slightly smaller.
A moment later, the light dissipated like ashes.
The Fist, originally with six legs, gradually moved forward, and then a pair of Segmented Legs grew behind the six legs, making a total of four pairs of eight legs.
The pincers were larger, their tips gleaming with a cold light, and were even sharper than a dagger.
The eye stalks protruding from the body cavity are much shorter, making them exceptionally agile and difficult to attack.
So the Fist has eight legs? Liang Qu fell into deep thought.
With its Fist, six legs, and two claws, he had always assumed it belonged to the king crab family and was supposed to be like that, but he never imagined it was due to insufficient evolution.
With this addition, the Fist's weaknesses have been reduced, and its attack power has been enhanced.
Awei was still wriggling in the mud, his appearance unchanged except that his carapace had become shinier.
After the evolution was complete, Awei stopped wriggling and swam to Liang Qu's palm, its antennae on its head swaying up and down.
It has an extra detoxification gland in its body!
In the future, it will not only be able to release poison, but also detoxify!
Perfect evolution.
Currently, we're dealing with Spirit Monster, so there's no need for detoxification, but it's hard to guarantee that it won't be used on humans in the future.
At the very least, it's more convenient to eat meat.
Liang Qu cooked and ate the Armored Beast; it didn't bother him at all.
It's really bad that Cannot Move. I've eaten a lot, and I have wounds in my mouth. Now I'm feeling dizzy and have no energy while lying in the swamp.
The Armored Beast's blood either spilled into the water or was sucked dry by Awei.
Only a few capillaries remained in the meat chunks, and the toxins were already in very small amounts. Yet, when they entered the wound that Cannot Move, they still managed to make such a big guy dizzy.
It's truly a deadly poison.
Having an antidote gland, Awei ran to the Cannot Move creature and gave it a prick.
After about the time Cannot Move, he got up from the ground, shaking his head and stirring the water, and became lively again.
The Fat Catfish immediately came over, waving its whiskers and bubbling.
Seeing that Cannot Move, Liang Qu nodded repeatedly. Then, he and the Fat Catfish darted into the water plants. With a turn, he swung his long tail and cut down a large patch of water plants.
Broken grass fluttered about, the cross-sections neat and orderly.
The two beasts compared themselves and then went at it again.
After observing for a while, Liang Qu realized that the two beasts were competing to see who could sweep out a larger and neater area.
The wager is admitting that the other person is better.
I wonder how long they can wreak havoc on such a large patch of water plants.
[Can consume 1495.6 points of Marsh Essence to evolve the Rock Turtle Crab into the Rock Turtle Crab King]
[Can consume 1494.7 Marsh Essence to evolve the Heavenly Water Centipede into the Two-Winged Heavenly Water Centipede]
The evolution requirement has increased from 800 and 1000 to 1500 Marsh Essence.
The data all match up.
Even the name of the Fist has changed; the Stone Turtle Crab has become the Rock Turtle Crab, and its evolutionary direction is also Rock Turtle Crab King.
Awei's name hasn't changed, but his evolutionary direction has changed from large wings to two wings.
The future of both beasts is brighter!
Speaking of which, could he replenish the non-dominant Water Beast? Liang Qu was slightly interested, but unfortunately, the Marsh Essence was never enough, and using it for experiments was too extravagant.
After both beasts completed their evolution, they took stock of themselves.
Communicate with Ze Cauldron.
[Innate Skills: Water Leap, Water Breathing, Water Prison Soaring Water Riding Waves]
Three more Innate Skills can be added at once.
Water Breathing, needless to say, literally means breathing underwater.
Water Prison and Soaring Water Riding Waves are hard to understand, but as Innate Skills, their general effects are clear.
Liang Qu looked around and launched Water Prison on a clump of floating water plants.
The water area changed in an instant, and the aquatic plants that were swaying with the waves remained frozen in place, unlike the other undulating aquatic plants.
The Fist was greatly surprised. It went to the water plants and stretched out its pincers to try to move them, but found that its "hand" felt like it was probing into the mud, no, it felt even more stagnant than mud.
The Liang Qu water-pressing Water Prison has extremely high internal resistance; inserting a finger feels like sinking into a lump of gel.
With Water Control capacity of ten tons, he can create a ten-cubic-meter gel field, rendering the organisms within it immobile.
The physical exertion is not too great; a one-cubic-meter Water Prison lasting for one minute consumes about 10% of one's physical strength.
After testing the Water Prison, it was time for the most anticipated part of the Liang Qu.
Soaring Water Riding Waves!
Liang Qu remained silent and composed.
Using Innate Skills such as raising arms and extending legs is extremely smooth.
Underwater currents surged forth, spiraling around the Liang Qu, and a tremendous lifting force came from beneath one's feet.
Liang Qu used the lifting force to rise, rushing from the bottom of the water to the surface until he was completely floating, as if he were walking on the waves!
With a thought, the waves will change direction on their own, rushing across the wide lake surface.
Liang Qu sped along for a while, then stopped and tried a different way of playing.
Water ripples surged upwards, transforming into a gushing spring, with large amounts of white foam rising up.
The water column rose higher and higher, and the surging water splashed into the river, like a man-made waterfall, making a loud noise.
The waves rose like dragons in the water, the Liang Qu rose several meters above the surface of the lake, and the view suddenly opened up, facing the Great Sun on the horizon.
Soaring Water Riding Waves, truly Soaring Water Riding Waves!
It's not a fake that manipulates water flow!
When manipulating water flow to simulate Soaring Water Riding Waves, Liang Qu floats to the surface by stirring the water.
If you try to lift a heavy object, such as Fubo, it will sink to the bottom of the water immediately and cannot be lifted at all.
It can Soaring Water Riding Waves. The greater the weight it lifts, the more energy it consumes. As long as it has enough energy, it can stay afloat! "Wuhu!"
The four beasts floated to the surface, their eyes filled with envy.
The Cannot Move, Fat Catfish found cutting water plants with its tail not fun at all.
The water Dragon Pillar slowly descended, and the Liang Qu fell back into the water.
Today's voyage was definitely the most fruitful of all his voyages.
Marsh Spirit was promoted from White Marsh Spirit Water Monkey to Azure Marsh Spirit Marsh Ape.
The martial arts path progresses from the first level to the Second Barrier, and then immediately to the third.
Awei and his Fist make up for their shortcomings.
The Jianghuai Marshlands are truly blessed lands!
Opportunities are fortuitous opportunity!
Why worry that great things cannot be accomplished?
After they finished enjoying themselves, Liang Qu called on the Cannot Move and the Fat Catfish to move the remains.
The Armored Beast was all eaten, and the few bones left were so thick that even the strongest bite force Cannot Move bite them down; they had to be taken back to be used as fertilizer.
After burying the fertilizer, Liang Qu rowed a boat through Yi Xing City.
Upon arriving at the dock, one could hear a chorus of voices discussing the matter. The villagers coming and going all looked worried, as if something had happened, and they all gathered together to talk to each other.
Liang Qu stopped the boat and looked around carefully, discovering many unfamiliar faces on the street.
There are over a thousand people in Yi Xing City. Liang Qu wouldn't dare say he knows them all, but he recognizes most of them. Even if he can't recall their names, he can tell whether they are villagers or not.
The reason is simple: we are currently in a period of peace, so there are naturally strict restrictions and management on population movement.
Everyone needs to abide by the household registration system; they cannot move around at will, let alone flee.
But suddenly many strangers appeared, many of them carrying large and small bags, with their families in tow, as if they were refugees.
Liang Qu immediately wanted to ask Lin Songbao.
Lin Songbao was a local strongman, well-informed, and knew exactly what was going on.
But Lin Songbao had sharp eyes and spotted Liang Qu early in the morning. Before Liang Qu could even come over, Lin Songbao took the initiative to visit him and explain what had happened.
"They all fled from other places. We are considered one of the few, with only one or two hundred people. The Magistrate sent someone to tell us to collect some rice and grain from our village to give to them for disaster relief."
Liang Qu frowned. "Disaster? What disaster? What disaster could there be around here? Could it be that those officials are trying to cheat us out of our grain?"
He had never heard of any natural disasters. Besides, since it was a nearby town or township, there was no reason why something would happen to them while Yi Xing City Ping Yang Town were fine.
Lin Songbao looked around and said, "Hey, I heard, but I only heard, don't take it seriously. What they encountered wasn't a natural disaster, it was a man-made one!"
