Chapter 259 — The Timeless Ginseng Baby
The Beast-Taming Craftsman · Page 8 of 10
Still, it was more or less acceptable.
Though Moonburst's self-detonation power sounded far stronger than conventional self-detonation, it definitely couldn't be used that way. As for other uses, compared to the heaven-defying Time-Secret-element skills, it was merely so-so.
By comparison, they suggested swapping the grades of the Time-Secret Fruit and Moonburst.
But skill grades are often determined by a skill's upper limit. The moon, that enormous thing—being able to draw on a planet's power to generate a massive explosion was indeed somewhat extraordinary.
Trained to the extreme, its power might even rival an asteroid explosion.
"Ee-yah!!!" Ginseng Baby shouted loudly. Should it experiment with Moonburst too?
It absolutely loved this Moonburst.
With its current strength, self-detonating should be enough to blow those Monarch-tier beasts with energy values in the millions to death.
And if, after it broke through to Monarch-tier, it simply self-detonated—wouldn't it then be invincible at Monarch-tier, and able to grievously wound Overlord-tier creatures?
"It wants to try Moonburst, especially the self-detonation power." Shi Jin translated, making everyone beside him twitch their eyelids.
W-wait a moment—you've gone muddle-headed from evolving, haven't you?
"Try the self-detonation power???" The old Chancellor of the Imperial Capital University and Ye Hui wondered if they had misheard.
Their faces darkened. Seeking death?
"What does that mean? This Moonburst makes you self-detonate—won't you die..." President Ye said. "Don't tell me you won't die. A self-detonation that inflates energy tenfold... that's even more absurd than those Mechanical-element self-detonation skills."
"Of course it'll die, and die so thoroughly not even scraps will remain. But don't forget its species name—Undying Ginseng..." Shi Jin said.
Everyone was stunned.
Shi Jin: "Ginseng Baby's last Wood and Time-Secret dual-element super-tier skill is formed by combining the power of death. It can condense a Time Imprint, also called the Undying Imprint, recording its own state. Then, after it is injured or dies unnaturally, it can use the Time Imprint to reverse time and secrets, reverse life and death, healing its wounds or resurrecting itself."
"So in theory, it can be combined into a self-detonation plus resurrection combo technique..."
When Shi Jin finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell silent.
The old Chancellor, President Ye, the Owl, and the Gem Cat all stared wide-eyed.
What did you say?
"Eeh!!" Ginseng Baby looked at everyone, eager to try. So—shall we experiment? Find an opponent and experiment! This time, when it awakened its skills, it just happened to come with a Time Imprint!
If it didn't use it, it would feel terrible inside.
The old principal of Imperial Capital University and Chairman Ye stared at Ginseng Baby, which was raring to blow itself up, expressions screaming "that's absurd." It took them a long moment to react before they shouted, "What did you just say??!!"
"This skill?? A skill like this even exists???"
Their ability to think shut down completely.
"Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit." The Prophecy Owl was stunned for a moment, then turned green with envy. Both were Time-type skills—so why was Ginseng Baby's skill this outrageously broken?
Teacher Ying beside them looked equally dazed. What the hell kind of skill was this?
Even a game wouldn't dare design a skill like that, all right?
"Infinite self-destruction plus revival??" Chairman Ye was floored.
"Are you sure you're not joking?"
This was supposed to be a tonic? Not a special-type forbidden weapon?
Suddenly, the Prophecy Owl had a jolt, remembering the vision it had foreseen about Ginseng Baby.
A pack of Totems chasing Ginseng Baby, then popping Ginseng Baby into their mouths...
If Ginseng Baby already had Overlord-tier strength at that time, then the Totems—danger.
