"Xiao Ruan, use Dragon Breath!"

As Bai Mu's voice fell, a green beam of light shot out from Zygarde's mouth.

Dragon Breath landed precisely on the Poison Mist Snake's head, causing it to stagger.

It also successfully broke the balance between the two!

"Well done, Flash Staff!"

The Dean seized the opportunity and smashed hard, repelling the Poison Mist Snake.

He stepped on the air, suddenly flashing three meters above the snake's head.

Wielding his staff, he brought it down with unparalleled force, smashing wildly at its head!

The giant snake felt something was wrong and wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.

BOOM!!!

Mud and water surged into the sky. The Poison Mist Snake was smashed into the mire, letting out a pained hiss.

But it was a seven-hundred-year Spirit Beast after all. The heavy blow instead ignited its ferocity.

"Hiss!"

The next instant, the Poison Mist Snake, disregarding its injuries, sprang out like a coiled spring, its maw wide open, lunging straight at Zygarde, which had just ambushed it!

While in mid-air, its two fangs emitted a purple toxic glow.

"Dragon Breath!"

Zygarde's expression remained unchanged. It gathered its full strength and unleashed a Dragon Breath into the Poison Mist Snake's mouth.

Bang!

An explosion erupted, and smoke filled the snake's mouth.

But the ferocious Poison Mist Snake seemed unaffected, continuing its charge with undiminished momentum, its venomous fangs tearing towards Zygarde!

"Hoo~"

The distance between them rapidly closed. Zygarde, unable to dodge the incoming attack in time, seemed to be able to smell the bloody stench from its mouth.

But it was completely fearless!

The next instant, the snake's maw snapped shut, and Zygarde's body transformed into a green light, flying back into Bai Mu's body!

"???"

Deep confusion flashed in the poisonous mist snake's scarlet eyes—how did the dog that was about to be eaten fly away?

Suddenly, a sharp shout rang out.

"Charge Attack!!!"

Dean of Notting, wielding the Wind Fire Staff, smashed down on the poisonous mist snake's head like a falling meteor.

Boom!

Scales shattered, and snake blood splattered!

"Ah~!!!"

The poisonous mist snake let out a piercing scream. After writhing frantically in the mud for a few seconds, it lay on the ground, lifeless.

"Xiao San, hurry!"

Fearing the poisonous mist snake would die prematurely, Yu Xiaogang urged him on.

"Thank you, this is the Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus."

Tang San cast a grateful glance at Bai Mu. Without the latter's assist, it would have been difficult to take down the poisonous mist snake in a short time.

"I was only doing it for myself."

Bai Mu waved his hand dismissively, his expression cold.

As a transmigrator who valued emotions, he was unwilling to let so-called feelings cloud his judgment and let Tang San's starving mother go.

Tang San didn't mind seeing this and killed the poisonous mist snake to absorb its Spirit Ring.

On the other side, the Dean had carefully picked the Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus, along with a clump of clean soil from its roots, and presented it to Bai Mu.

After leaving the soil, the lotus bloomed even brighter, its life force so dense it was almost tangible.

"The Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus is relatively gentle. With your physique, you should be able to absorb it easily."

The Dean handed the Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus over and said, "Kill it, then use meditation to guide the Spirit Ring and absorb it. Remember to stay conscious."

"Thank you, Dean."

Bai Mu smiled as he took it, then crushed it in his hand, destroying the flower with ruthless hands.

Subsequently, a bright yellow Spirit Ring slowly solidified from the broken body of the Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus.

Bai Mu sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and meditated, attempting to circulate his Soul Power to guide the Spirit Ring over.

The Spirit Ring gradually absorbed, and a cool energy instantly flowed into his body.

Unlike the imagined pain of absorbing a Spirit Ring, the energy of the Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus transformed into Soul Power, gently washing through his meridians like a trickling stream, nourishing every cell.

His Soul Power was steadily increasing, and his physique also improved accordingly.

Just as everything was going smoothly, Bai Mu's consciousness suddenly sank, and he was no longer awake!

"This is..."

When his consciousness returned, Bai Mu saw some information "before his eyes"--

[Successfully absorbed a 290-year Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus Spirit Ring, obtained the first Spirit Skill: Spirit Healing Aura (Can release life aura to slowly heal self and target.)]

[Pokemon moves that can resonate and replace: Photosynthesis, Growth, Ingrain, Heal Pulse, Aromatic Mist, Refresh, Purify...]

"What is this?"

"Could it be that depending on the Spirit Ring absorbed, I can replace the obtainable Spirit Skill with resonating Pokemon moves?"

Bai Mu was stunned. So, he had this ability all along!

So... should he replace it?

"Replace! Definitely replace!"

Although Spirit Healing Aura was strong and didn't consume much Soul Power, its slow healing speed was unacceptable!

In a dangerous moment, how could an opponent give him the chance to heal slowly!

Even a genuine Photosynthesis would be more practical than this Spirit Healing Aura!

But... what should he replace it with?

Bai Mu looked at the dozen or so moves in front of him, feeling a bit troubled for a moment.

But soon, a peculiar move caught his eye.

"No way! This move can also resonate?"

Bai Mu's eyes lit up as he looked at a move called [Jungle Healing]!

Jungle Healing, a signature move of the Mythical Pokemon Zarude, can restore 1/4 HP (and Soul Power) to the user and companions, and heal abnormal status conditions for the user and companions.

Although the healing amount was not as good as Photosynthesis, it excelled in its wide range and broader functionality. Moreover, it adaptively recovered Soul Power as a Douluo World Spirit Skill, making it the most perfect first Spirit Skill!

Bar none!

In addition, as Zarude's signature move, this move could also make plants grow rapidly!

[Do you wish to replace Spirit Healing Aura with Resonance Jungle Healing?]

"Confirm!"

--

The afterglow of the setting sun filtered through the gaps in the forest, casting light on an open space by the mud pit.

Tang San absorbed the Spirit Ring from the Poison Mist Snake, his Blue Silver Grass entwined with a faint purple aura. Bai Mu absorbed the Spirit Epiphyllum Jade Lotus, his body radiating a pure halo.

Yu Xiaogang stared at the two, his expression complex.

The Dean kept watch around them, acting as a guardian for the two.

Suddenly, both men opened their eyes simultaneously, their auras surging.

Bai Mu's aura became even more ethereal, possessing a natural affinity that drew people closer.

Tang San's temperament gained a touch of malevolence, and dark green patterns appeared on his Blue Silver Grass, the leaves resembling those of a viper.

"Did it succeed?"

Yu Xiaogang asked eagerly.

"My second Spirit Skill, Blue Silver Poison Mist. My Blue Silver Grass can spray poison mist to attack. The mist is corrosive, and opponents affected by it will gradually slow down, their Soul Power constantly eroded."

Tang San raised the corner of his mouth and controlled his Blue Silver Grass to spray poison mist at a large tree.

The leaves and trunk immediately withered, and in a short time, it turned into a dead tree.

Yu Xiaogang was overjoyed: "Good! Good! Good! It's a perfect match as per my theories!"

"How do you feel?"

The Dean asked with concern.

"Good! Better than ever before!"

Bai Mu stood up and stretched his limbs, feeling completely at ease.

Then, he waved his hand and summoned Zygarde, nodding at it.

"Xiao Ruan!"

"Roar~"

Zygarde let out a long roar, its body glowing green, as if merging with the surrounding jungle. A peculiar fluctuation rippled outwards.

Everyone within the affected area felt a warm life energy surge into their bodies.

"What a powerful Spirit Skill... I feel the Soul Power and stamina I just consumed are rapidly recovering."

A hint of surprise flashed in the Dean's eyes.

"So strong! It can even heal and restore a Soul Ancestor!"

Tang San suddenly wanted to become good friends with Bai Mu.

Who wouldn't want a powerful support teammate?

"Hmph~"

Zygarde returned to Bai Mu's side with a proud huff, rubbing against him.

"First Spirit Skill: Jungle Healing. Zygarde can heal the target and restore a certain amount of their stamina and Soul Power."

As the user of the skill, it was difficult for Bai Mu to push the Spirit Skill beyond its limits, but it was not difficult to deliberately weaken the skill's power and hide his strength.

"It's not a support spirit, yet it possesses a healing Spirit Skill stronger than any support!"

Yu Xiaogang's eyes shone with amazement as he looked at Zygarde.

With this move, Zygarde could freely switch between assault-type Spirit Masters and support-type Spirit Masters in team battles.

This Zygarde spirit was truly terrifying!

"No matter what, I must take Bai Mu as my disciple and restore my reputation!"

Yu Xiaogang made up his mind. After returning, he would pester Bai Mu relentlessly until he was moved!

"No matter what, I must find the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and obtain the Immortal Herbs!"

Bai Mu also made up his mind. After returning, he would graduate early and plan to obtain the Immortal Herbs!
