🔥 Boss's Death Guide 🔥 by Jue Jue
Chapter 139: Triple Ability
After the jujube tree was dug up, there was still plant energy remaining in the ground, which made sense because the tree's roots were still buried in the mud. However, this time the plant energy became stronger instead of weaker, which was unusual.
Qi Jingchen carefully sensed the energy with his spiritual power, and finally jumped into the big pit where the jujube tree was dug out, and began to search inside.
Seeing this, Nie Yi also jumped into the pit and started searching with Qi Jingchen.
The soil under the valley was somewhat soft and wet. Qi Jingchen didn't care about getting his hands dirty. He grabbed the clumps of soil and rubbed them between his fingers. After a while, he held up a piece of soil, "Found it!"
"What is it?" Nie Yi asked. He first washed his hands and shoes clean with his water-based supernatural ability, and then walked to Qi Jingchen's side, and cleaned Qi Jingchen's shoes as well.
Qi Jingchen broke apart the soil in his hand, revealing a fingernail-sized crystal that was a brilliant green color.
The crystal was small, but the plant-based supernatural ability it emitted was very strong, almost completely condensed from pure energy. This thing looked a bit like the crystal composed of dark energy on Yao Mengzhi's hand that Qi Jingchen had found before.
Yao Mengzhi's crystal of dark energy was completely condensed from dark energy, and even the energy inside it was purer than Yao Mengzhi's own dark supernatural ability. However, Qi Jingchen's stone was different. The stone was not composed of bright energy. It was more like a container that could only contain bright energy.
As for the crystal in front of him? It was obviously not a container, but condensed from plant energy. The energy inside was pure and surging. With such a crystal, it would probably not be difficult for them to create more mutant plants.
Thinking of this, the giant jujube tree and the roots of the jujube tree they had planned to dig up seemed to suddenly lose their value...
"Your luck is always god level." Nie Yi smiled, washed Qi Jingchen's hands with his water ability, and took the chance to caress them.
"Indeed." Qi Jingchen smiled and scratched Nie Yi's palm with his finger.
"This stone is prettier than the emperor's green jade. The only problem is that the energy in it is too strong. Where should we put it?" Nie Yi asked.
Qi Jingchen also thought of this problem. Although he was not a plant ability user, he did not dislike this like he disliked the dark ability. However, he was still uncomfortable having two different kinds of energy together because they weren't totally compatible.
He looked at Xiaomao while holding the crystal. Xiaomao immediately said, "Xiaomao doesn't want it!"
Looking at the way Xiaomao reacted, Qi Jingchen knew he couldn't store the crystal in Xiaomao's space. He could only look at the little monkey.
The little monkey immediately held out its hand, asking for the crystal.
Qi Jingchen placed the crystal in the monkey's hand, and the monkey immediately held it firmly in its arms, pleased. But soon after, it suddenly screamed and threw the crystal on the ground, then looked at the crystal with a hint of fear and began to shiver.
What's going on? Qi Jingchen frowned and walked over to the little monkey, giving it a little bit of light energy. The little monkey's condition improved a bit, but it still dared not look at the crystal again.
"What's wrong with it?" Nie Yi picked up the crystal from the ground and asked.
"Perhaps the energy in this stone is too much for it to handle." Qi Jingchen said. The little monkey's ability was far less pure than the energy inside this stone, which was probably making it uncomfortable.
"I'll take it." Nie Yi said.
"Won’t it be uncomfortable?" Qi Jingchen asked worriedly.
"It's okay. I used to feel this kind of discomfort every day when my two different ability cores conflicted with each other." Nie Yi said, putting the crystal in his shirt pocket.
He had a fire ability and was not afraid of the cold. Although the weather was still a bit cold, he only wore a shirt.
"Let's go back." Qi Jingchen said. They had been out here for so long that the people in the safety zone were probably getting worried.
They could use Qi An’s ability to take them all out of the cliff together, but it might make it impossible for them to land in the pre-planned spot. It was better to take them out one by one. Nie Yi was the first to go out to explore ahead.
After bringing Nie Yi to the crack, Qi An returned to the bottom of the valley. However, as soon as he got back, he saw something that made him scream—the huge snake, as thick as a person, suddenly emerged from the side and snapped for Qi Jingchen's head!
"Boss!" Qi An shouted and launched an attack without hesitation.
The snake was facing Qi Jingchen directly, and attacking it there would easily hit Qi Jingchen by mistake. Qi An could only throw his spatial blade at the snake's vital point.
Unfortunately, his spatial blade was not strong enough, and in the end, it only cut through the snake's skin, unable to stop the snake from snapping for Qi Jingchen!
Fortunately, Qi Jingchen, despite being pampered and spoiled in this life, was once a powerful ability user, with strong combat awareness. He rolled on the spot and dodged the snake's attack, relying on his own spiritual power to dodge the snake's second and third attacks!
But he could only dodge.
This snake was probably a mutant. Fighting with light energy would not harm it, but instead enhance its strength... Qi Jingchen had no way to attack it.
The end of the world was indeed full of danger... Qi Jingchen couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had thought he was lucky just now, but in the blink of an eye, he encountered a mishap and was thrown into chaos by a mutant that was not even at his level.
He was trying to use his spiritual power to dodge for a while, waiting for Nie Yi to come and save him, when suddenly he felt a pain in his chest and leg.
Could it be that Nie Yi was also in danger? Qi Jingchen's heart jumped, and he really wanted to try to find Nie Yi. However, the snake's head in front of him was suddenly surrounded by flames!
He looked up and saw that Nie Yi had already arrived and was using his fire ability to burn the snake.
Qi Jingchen felt relieved, but then he saw Nie Yi's shirt that was not only torn, but also covered in blood, and his heart tightened again.
The snake's head was surrounded by flames from Nie Yi's fire ability. It writhed in agony on the ground. The roots left behind by the jujube tree began to grow some small jujube trees as the snake rolled.
The small jujube trees had wooden thorns on them, and Qi Jingchen quickly dodged them. Nie Yi burned the ones around him using his fire ability. In the end, only the snake was pricked... After rolling for a while, it died.
Seeing this, Qi Jingchen also understood that this snake was probably a mutant animal born and raised in this place, awakened to the plant ability by the crystal. The plant ability was relatively abundant here, and the snake was hiding in the nearby cave, hidden from them by the soil. They hadn't noticed it before. And this snake... it probably liked the light energy on his body, but was afraid of Nie Yi, which was why it attacked Qi Jingchen as soon as Nie Yi left.
But after all, a snake was a snake, and its intelligence was far lower than that of a monkey. Despite having plant ability, it could not use it, nor could it accurately discern the situation, so it was roasted by Nie Yi...
The snake's head was cooked by Nie Yi's fire ability, and the air was filled with the smell of snake meat. Qi An looked at the large snake and couldn't help but swallow his saliva: "So much meat..." he said, and had Xiaomao collect the body of the snake.
Xiaomao was scared when she saw the snake just now, but now she got excited when she heard Qi An say that snake meat was edible, and collected the whole snake.
At this time, Qi Jingchen had no time to pay attention to the big, flashy, and quickly dead snake. He walked to Nie Yi and threw several light balls at him, while asking, "Are you okay? How did you get hurt?"
"I jumped down from above and got a little hurt, but it's okay, it will heal soon," Nie Yi smiled at Qi Jingchen.
When he heard Qi An's exclamation from below, Nie Yi was startled and jumped down from above without much thought. Although he had extended the duration of his fall with his ice ability, he still got injured.
He scraped against a sharp stone on the cliff, not only scratching his chest, but also his shirt. He didn't notice that the plant crystal got lodged in his flesh as he was in a hurry to save Qi Jingchen. As a result... the crystal ended up in his body and the plant energy spread from his chest...
The feeling of a completely different energy invading his body was not comfortable, but Nie Yi's biggest concern was whether he would get injured. If he got hurt, would Qi Jingchen be okay?
Qi Jingchen was stunned when he heard that Nie Yi had jumped from the top. The expression on his face was not pretty—he was dozens of meters away! Was Nie Yi not afraid of dying?
Although he couldn't attack, he was still a fifth-level ability user with a protective shield. Even if he was swallowed by a snake, he wouldn't necessarily die!
Qi Jingchen suddenly felt a pain in his chest again. He quickly opened Nie Yi's blood-stained shirt, but he couldn't find any wounds—Nie Yi's original wounds had all been healed by his ability.
"Are you okay?" Qi Jingchen couldn't help asking.
At this time, Nie Yi also felt that something was wrong with his chest. He frowned and smiled bitterly: "It seems that the crystal went into my body."
Nie Yi closed his eyes and stopped talking, then began to work hard to mobilize his abilities, trying to drive out the energy that did not belong to his body.
He was too anxious, and the mixed energy of water and fire rushed towards the plant energy.
After the collision, the energy fluctuations emitted by the three abilities made Nie Yi's chest even more painful and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
This method obviously didn't work. Nie Yi took out a small knife from his pocket and wanted to dig out the crystal in his body. However, just at that moment, his body changed again.
His water and fire abilities were merged together. After colliding with the plant energy, they collided with the crystal.
This made him very uncomfortable, but there seemed to be a hint of green in his mixed abilities?
Nie Yi suddenly had an idea.
With a grit of his teeth, Nie Yi began to control his abilities to wrap around the green crystal, and then, the green crystal was actually melted by his abilities.
This process was not easy, but Qi Jingchen's light ability kept flowing into him, allowing him to persist. The soft light energy not only prevented the three abilities from exploding and harming his body, but also made them more peaceful.
He began to slowly melt the green core, and the mixed abilities of water and fire melted some of the plant energy, which then diffused into his body...
Nie Yi actually felt an impulse to pull the green crystal into his mind, as he could probably dissolve it faster there, but when he thought about his life being connected to Qi Jingchen's now, he didn't do it.
The three energies bumped and collided in his chest. Even with Qi Jingchen's help, Nie Yi still felt a sense of having his heart and lungs crushed, but the plant energy was also slowly being integrated.
If he persisted like this, he...should become a three-ability user!
Realizing this, Nie Yi's heart beat faster, but soon, the gentle light energy that entered his body calmed down his heart, and the pain in his chest became less pronounced.
The light energies also made his three abilities fuse faster.
Nie Yi felt warm in his heart. Just at that moment, he felt Qi Jingchen hug him.
Worried that Qi Jingchen would again make him drink blood, Nie Yi immediately opened his eyes: "I'm fine."
Qi Jingchen didn't say anything, but his spiritual power entered Nie Yi's body, and the light energy rushed in.
The two people hugged each other for a long time. Although Qi An and Xiaomao didn't understand the reason, they didn't dare to disturb them and simply cooked something to eat by themselves.
Qi An was especially fond of the snake. He cooked the snake meat and made soup. The soup was very delicious, but the meat was a little tough. He even bit it and loosened a tooth...
He seemed to be about to lose his teeth...Qi An covered his mouth and suddenly felt a little sad.
Nie Yi and Qi Jingchen finally woke up.
Another kind of energy had melted into Nie Yi's ability core now- he only had one core, but had three abilities.
He had become a three-ability user!
"I'm level five now," Nie Yi looked at Qi Jingchen.
When Qi Jingchen had reached level five before, he didn't know when he would reach it, but he didn't expect it to be so fast...and he also had three abilities...he had never met a three-ability user before.
Nie Yi's eyes were full of excitement. Qi Jingchen suddenly pounced on Nie Yi and then bit Nie Yi's chest.
This was the third time he had bitten Nie Yi's chest, but he didn't give him any treatment afterwards: "Are you stupid? You're so high up but still jumping down!"
Nie Yi hugged Qi Jingchen and kissed him: "I'll make you food."
Qi Jingchen took a deep breath and suddenly said, "I want to eat tender corn!"
Xiaomao's space had many things, but it was impossible to have tender corn. He said that just to see if Nie Yi's ability was really okay.
Nie Yi's abilities were completely fine. He took out a few corn seeds from Xiaomao and grew a lot of corn, then cooked it.
With the plant ability, he could cook a variety of dishes!
Although Nie Yi was not very skilled at using the plant ability, he still quickly picked up how to use it. Then he suddenly thought of something, "Jingchen, if I get different crystals, is it possible to awaken all the abilities?"
