Chapter 246 Devouring Star Core
Su Yuan quickly left the room in a blink of an eye, and came to a secluded square behind the camp.
Raising his hand to release the slime, Su Yuan put his hand on its head.
"Suck it."
"Puff!"
The slime rubbed against Su Yuan's palm, and then began to devour the star power released by Su Yuan.
As the slime began to devour, Su Yuan's eyes did show a little surprise.
"This devouring ability is actually ten times stronger than before!"
To say that the speed at which slimes devoured star power was just a thin trickle as thick as a toothpick, but now it is just a chopstick.
"Gee?!"
Slime also seemed to be surprised by his sudden increase in devouring ability, and quickly slowed down the devouring speed and looked up at Su Yuan.
Su Yuan said: "It's okay, let go and breathe."
After hearing this, the slime devoured it at full speed again.
"Puff Chi Chi!"
It didn't take long for the slime to replenish its star power and become chubby!
For Su Yuan who is gold-ranked and has a star spring, this star power is naturally nothing.
Su Yuan asked: "Can you really do what you just said?"
"Puff!" Slime nodded heavily.
"Okay, let's try."
Su Yuan flipped his hands and took out a star core, which was the star core obtained from the water elemental spirit in the Haicheng ruins.
Su Yuan threw the star core at Slime, and Slime swallowed it directly.
Slime closed his eyes, the golden lines on his body lighted up slightly, and a layer of black light gradually filled the body surface.
In less than a dozen seconds, Slime opened his eyes again, revealing a hint of excitement in his eyes.
I saw water flowing on his body, and after a little power accumulation, a long spear transformed into flowing water gathered in front of him.
"Puff!"
Slime gave a low shout, and the flowing water spear flew out and went straight to the distance.
Su Yuan's figure flashed, and he appeared in front of the flowing water spear. He raised his hand and smashed the flowing water spear, and then flashed back to the original place.
"Puff! Puff!"
Slime is extremely excited.
"It actually succeeded!" Su Yuan's eyes were full of surprise.
After the breakthrough just now, the slime said that it can now devour the star core.
Moreover, when devouring the star core, you can choose to devour the energy in the star core, or absorb one of the skills.
The former Su Yuan can understand that the star core is a pure energy crystal after all, and ordinary humans and star beasts cannot directly absorb it.
Now that slime has reached the bronze level, the law of devouring has been greatly enhanced, and it is not surprising that it can devour star cores.
But being able to absorb one of the skills...
? ? ?
Su Yuan was startled, isn't this better than the "extraction function" of his own system?
Moreover, if the stardust system wants to extract a certain skill in the star core that is "not obtained by killing yourself", it needs to spend a lot of stardust equivalent to upgrading the skill to the transformation environment.
But slimes don't need it.
Su Yuan asked again: "Is there a limit to the number of devouring skills?"
"Puff (it doesn't seem to exist now)!"
"What about the other restrictions?"
"Puji Puji (There is a quality limit, it cannot exceed its own quality +1)!
"Self-quality +1? That is... epic?!"
Su Yuan's heart trembled, looking at the little slime in front of him, he was terrified.
This ability is much stronger than the star beast manifested in human form!
Humanoid manifested star beasts can be inlaid with one or two additional skills, and like human star card masters, epic star cards can only be inlaid at the gold level.
But slimes are different, can absorb epic purple cards now?
Su Yuan thought for a while, and took out another star core, which was the star core obtained from the cold crystal sea lion.
If you don’t have an epic star core for slime to try, use the blue star core to confirm first.
Seeing that Su Yuan threw another star core, the slime jumped up to catch it and swallowed it again.
But this time, it took longer.
After several minutes passed, Slime opened his eyes again, trembling all over, as if he was accumulating skills.
"Puff!"
Water elements gathered in the mid-air in front of it, and a transparent and invisible water cube quickly formed. It was the [Water Town Ice Prison] that the cold crystal sea lion had used before.
Although the water town ice prison used by slime is only as big as a basketball court, there is no doubt that it can be used!
Su Yuan opened the panel and made another unexpected discovery:
【Familiar Beast: Slime (Royal Reincarnator)】
【Law: Devour】
…
【Additional skills: Water Town Ice Prison (Blue | Dacheng), Riptide Spear (Green | Mastery)】
These extra skills have completely inherited the opponent's skill level!
"Okay, not bad!"
Su Yuan was delighted in his heart. Until now, Su Yuan has fully felt what it means to be an emperor-level reincarnator who carries the ultimate law.
Such a potential... No, such a cheat is simply against the sky!
Slime was praised and couldn't help dancing around Su Yuan happily.
Su Yuan suddenly thought of something, and took out a bead with a mark from the ring, which was the original bead obtained from the ancient Naga.
Since the fate disk in the ruins of Haicheng was pierced by the anode sharpshooter and the revival of the demon emperor failed, the strange power on this source bead also disappeared, and it can be received in the ring.
Su Yuan originally wanted to extract the pure energy from it and absorb it, but found that it was impossible.
This bead is obviously a well-made star power prop. Extracting the energy in it is more difficult than extracting the energy in the star stone or even the star core.
"This bead was prepared by the Demon Emperor after he was resurrected. Apart from providing pure energy to restore part of his strength, the imprint on it is probably the more important thing..."
Countless years later, even if the Demon Emperor is successfully revived, it will be difficult to restore his full strength all at once.
This point can be found from the sea city ruins that chose to turn the land of resurrection into a gold-level secret realm, most of which are gold to shining stars.
The ten source beads were prepared by him for the "weak period" after his resurrection.
Besides the pure energy in the source bead, what this mark represents may be even more complicated.
Ordinary people and star beasts can’t use this source bead, but slimes should be able to absorb it through the devouring law retained by reincarnation…
At this time, as Su Yuan took out the source bead, the slime immediately felt a certain pull and looked over.
"Puji (want)!"
Su Yuan thought for a while, then threw the Yuanzhu to it.
Now that the beast-following contract has been completed, the slime's life and death are all in his own mind, and he is not afraid of anything in the source pearl that is not good for him.
The slime caught the origin bead and swallowed it into the body, just for a moment, the slime started to devour the origin bead little by little like eating candy. The look is relaxed, and it doesn't seem to be very laborious.
As a large amount of energy is swallowed by the slime, through the contract, Su Yuan can feel that the slime is getting stronger every second at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Su Yuan felt it for a while: "According to this speed, I am afraid it will take a while to completely swallow it."
What exactly can be obtained from the imprint of this bead can only be known after the devouring is completed.
Aside from this matter, Su Yuan leaned down to look at Slime, and said, "You are now my royal beast, so let's give you a name."
"Puff!"
Hearing the name, the slime, who was savoring the source beads, suddenly became excited, and looked up at Su Yuan expectantly.
Su Yuan kneaded the slime, and it felt good: "Well... let's call it soft."
"Gee???"
Slime didn't expect Su Yuan to be so casual, and immediately widened his gilt pupils in a daze.
"Chi Chi!"
Slime felt a strong reluctance.
It's not that it sounds good or bad, it's just that the name looks very weak!
"Okay, that's it." Su Yuan directly made a decision, and then squeezed the slime vigorously, "So soft, it's worthy of the name."
Names like this, of course, are simple and easy to remember.
The mighty and domineering name of "Shi Aotian", full of the atmosphere of the second grade, flashed through Su Yuan's mind just now. Presumably, the immature slime will definitely like it very much.
But when it grows up and becomes mature, it may not even have the face to report its own name when dealing with people...
"Puff Chi Chi..." The protest was ineffective, and Slime could only accept it rather discouraged.
As the naming was completed, the system was automatically updated without Su Yuan issuing instructions.
Not only has the name been updated, but even the power of the Law of Devouring has been refined:
【Familiar Beast: Ruan Ruan (Royal Reincarnator)】
【Law: Devour (restraining breath, devouring energy, looting)】
…
"Catching breath, absorbing energy, and plundering should correspond to the three abilities currently possessed by Ruan Ruan.
In addition, after the breakthrough, the system seems to have become a little more intelligent..."
A flash of surprise flashed in Su Yuan's eyes. In the past, unless a clear instruction was issued or a predetermined condition was triggered, the system would not make any movement.
But now, it is possible to update some information independently according to the wishes of the Master.
However, after Su Yuan tried a bit, he found that it was nothing more. Although it was a little smarter, there were no new functions.
"In any case, this shows that the system is also growing. I don't know if there will be any new changes after the Yaoxing star."
Su Yuan calmed down, and said softly to the slime: "You go back to the beast-fencing space first?"
"Puff Chi Chi Chi (can you not come back The Beast Familiar Space is too boring, Ruan Ruan seems to really not want to go back.
Su Yuan thought for a while, and said, "That's fine, but just like before, you can't make any noise."
Ruan Ruan excitedly said: "Puff (good)!"
Afterwards, Ruan Ruan turned into a blue bracelet with gold patterns again and wrapped it around Su Yuan's left hand.
Su Yuan himself has the powerful ability to hold back breath brought by proficient breath, and now with Ruanruan assisting in swallowing the breath and star power fluctuations, even the third-level sun, moon and star masters may not be able to feel Su Yuan's breath. .
"The breath-holding effect alone is not bad for me, and as the softness becomes stronger and the law of devouring becomes stronger, the breath-holding effect will definitely be stronger."
Su Yuan glanced at the softness on his left hand, nodded in satisfaction, and then set off to return to the camp.
