Chapter 236: Flame of the Soul
Yuan Rui’s eyelashes trembled, Zhang Mu had sensed the tremendous energy fluctuations caused by the earth-shattering changes within her body, resonating with his spiritual power. It seemed like she had awakened now.
He approached, meeting Yuan Rui’s gaze as she opened her eyes.
Yuan Rui joyfully looked at the man who had always protected her, smiling and saying, “Uncle, I did it! I seem to have become much stronger.”
Zhang Mu pulled her up from the ground, furrowing his brow, and asked, “Oh, awakening some new ability, let me see?”
Yuan Rui was like a child who couldn’t wait to show off to Zhang Mu as if she had found a treasure.
She gently placed her palm on Zhang Mu, and the green energy that was similar to the first rank now slightly changed to white, flowing slowly into Zhang Mu’s body.
The energy looked like a big lump at first, but soon divided into small green dots, spreading evenly throughout Zhang Mu’s body.
Zhang Mu could clearly feel something different. As the energy entered his body, the green dots gradually merged into every part of him. He felt his energy filling up, completely mobilized, and his excitement levels soared.
Although his body was already in the best condition and his injuries had almost healed, reaching the optimal combat state still required some warm-up and time.
Yuan Rui’s energy not only restored Zhang Mu’s cell activity, but also immediately boosted his energy to the best combat state, skipping the time needed for him to reach it.
“Is this your second-rank new ability? Looks like I can’t fight without you now.” Zhang Mu teased Yuan Rui, realizing how essential this ability was for him. Normally, it would take him two minutes to adjust all his states to the best during battles.
Although Zhang Mu intentionally slowed down his observation to understand how to use this healing energy, the actual time it took to take effect was only two seconds. Now, with Yuan Rui’s help, he could immediately unleash his full strength without any preparation, completely ignoring the warm-up process. It meant that Zhang Mu could defeat his opponent right away as soon as they transitioned from non-combat to combat status.
The difference between two seconds and two minutes was huge. In normal combat state, the fighting power was about eighty percent of the best combat state. That twenty percent could change the outcome of the battle.
Yuan Rui was very pleased to see the surprise on Zhang Mu’s face and said with a big smile, “What do you think, Uncle? Is my second-rank evolution ability good enough?”
Zhang Mu nodded unconsciously and replied, “More than good, it has been incredibly helpful to me.”
Yuan Rui’s eyes lit up with joy, being recognized by Zhang Mu was the best reward for her advancement. She pretended to be mysterious and said to Zhang Mu, “Besides, I feel like my healing power has increased significantly. Before, I could only use it twice, but now, if I want to restore energy or heal injuries like before, I can do it up to ten times!”
As for more serious injuries, I haven’t tried it yet, but I have a gut feeling that if I use all my energy, I can restore a severely injured person back to full health.”
Although Zhang Mu sighed, he wasn’t very surprised because healers in the evolver world always had such incredible abilities. Using their power once was equivalent to a second-rank healing potion in the Era Store, which was extremely rare. Furthermore, the cost for these healer evolvers was only energy depletion, without any harm to their bodies.
Even if there was temporary weakness from using up all their energy at once, as long as they rested and recovered for three days, they could bounce back. However, because of this, most healer evolvers wouldn’t use up all their life energy to avoid any emergencies and be prepared for themselves or those around them.
Zhang Mu patted Yuan Rui’s head and said, “I remember you have another ability, right? Want to surprise me with it?”
Yuan Rui mischievously smiled and looked at Zhang Mu, saying, “So Uncle, you know about it? I wanted to keep it a secret. But I’m not sure about the power of this ability, although I can sense that it holds a very strong force. I don’t know how to demonstrate it to you, what if I can’t control it properly.”
Zhang Mu playfully rubbed her head and said, “You don’t think your newly awakened ability can harm me, do you? You little rascal, hurry up and show me. I want to see if the awakening of this beast core ability really possesses two equally powerful abilities.”
Yuan Rui playfully blinked her eyes and replied happily to Zhang Mu, “I know Uncle is very powerful, so I’ll give it a try.”
Zhang Mu nodded slightly. Even though he had a relaxed smile on his face, he had focused all his mental energy and was on high alert. He didn’t want to embarrass himself and ruin his image.
Just now, Zhang Mu sensed a huge amount of energy within Yuan Rui’s body, giving him an illusion that a ancient fierce beast was hiding inside her.
“Here I come!”
As Yuan Rui casually spoke, her mental energy instantly surged and began to materialize.
Zhang Mu, who also had mental energy, could see that Yuan Rui’s condensed mental energy was taking shape, rising continuously as a large blue flame.
Is it a soul flame? It’s also a good soul attack method.
However, as Yuan Rui threw it towards herself, Zhang Mu’s body trembled with fear.
This sense of crisis, it was definitely not an ordinary flame!
Without caring about his earlier boasting, Zhang Mu suddenly summoned his mental shield and focused intently on the approaching flames that were big enough to engulf him.
At the moment of impact, Zhang Mu’s eyes widened as a lifelike phoenix emerged from the flames, a mythical ancient beast, a phoenix!
What shocked Zhang Mu even more was that as the phoenix appeared, the color of the flames started changing, with parts turning into a golden red and blending with a deep blue.
Zhang Mu’s mental shield was actually melting away!
The mental shield he relied on to withstand psychic attacks was now starting to disintegrate!
