Super Zoo

Chapter 449 The Second Evolution

Suming was taken aback!

Ever since he obtained the ability of Animal Friend, his spiritual power had always been increasing slowly under normal circumstances; even when it decreased, it was because he actively used his spiritual power. He had never encountered a situation where his spiritual power was out of control and being "sucked away".

For Suming, the importance of spiritual power could be considered akin to 'Inner Strength' in martial arts novels, and perhaps even more important! All his abilities to manipulate and communicate with animals, including the Soul Attachment Ability, were built on the foundation of his spiritual power!

And now, this lifeless piece of Tridacna shell was just like Ren Woxing with his Star Absorption Skill, it didn't ask for Suming's permission, the master, and was ruthlessly absorbing his spiritual power!

And the speed was alarmingly fast!

The current Suming was no longer the poor man who would exhaust his spiritual power by dealing with a few dozen bees; after over a year of substantial supplementation with Monkey Wine, his spiritual power had accumulated to an astonishing extent.

If he released his spiritual power without any reservations, he could cover half a zoo, and communicate with thousands of animals at the same time. Controlling hundreds of more advanced animals like monkeys at the same time was definitely not a problem.

If he were to face an attack from lower animals like bees and mosquitoes, it could be said that within the range covered by his spiritual power, the more that came, the more would fall.

Even with fierce animals like tigers, lions, and crocodiles, Suming could effortlessly suppress them instantly!

Measured by the Soul Attachment Ability, he could easily make contact with Haidong Qing within a thirty kilometer radius.

In other words, his current spiritual power almost left him without an equal in the zoo.

Since the New Year, after a battle with venomous snakes on Sun Town's Rear Mountain, he had nearly never been pushed to the brink of exhaustion of his spiritual power.

Before, when his spiritual power was less, a jar of big blue bee honey could instantly replenish it, or if he did nothing and rested for a day or two, it would be full. But now, even drinking dozens of jars of honey wouldn't be enough to replenish it.

Such formidable spiritual power was actually being absorbed by the Tridacna shell in a matter of seconds, almost half gone! And it still continued to rush crazily out of his body, how could Suming not be shocked, so much so that he didn't even notice Ding Jing later saying 'Xiankelai is his closest ally'.

Even though spiritual power could be replenished, Suming still disliked the feeling of being out of control.

He gritted his teeth and did his best to stop the outflow of spiritual power.

"Mr. Su?! Mr. Su?!"

Ding Jing saw Suming standing there frozen as if spellbound, sweating profusely, and promptly pushed him.

"Ah?! Oh... oh..." Suming then came to his senses.

Strangely, when he didn't deliberately resist, his spiritual power crazily flowed into the Tridacna shell, but the moment he thought about it and deliberately stopped it, the spiritual power suddenly ceased to flow out.

But, he could still feel the attraction from the Tridacna shell, as if it were a ravenous monster, eagerly trying to suck out his spiritual power.

"Mr. Su, are you okay?" Ding Jing asked worriedly.

"Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine," Suming replied, not in the mood to say much to Ding Jing. He said, "Since that's the case, I can help with this, and I'll keep the pearl. But like I said, I won't acknowledge anything."

Ding Jing was overjoyed, "No problem! Thank you for your help, Mr. Su!"

Could it be that the amount of spiritual power was too little? The clamshell couldn't be bothered to absorb it?

Gulp... Gulp... After downing the whole bottle, even though it had been improved, consuming such a large quantity still made one feel slightly nauseated. Suming grimaced.

The spiritual power within him was restored a great deal.

Still, the clamshell did not make a move.

This only deepened the mystery. Could it be that the clamshell's absorption ability was exactly on par with his own level of spiritual power? That seemed too coincidental.

If the enemy does not move, I must act. With the clamshell remaining still, Suming boldly sent a trace of his spiritual power into it.

He thought with a hint of mischief, wondering if, being 'satiated,' the clamshell would now regurgitate the spiritual power when he deliberately fed it more.

Spit out what you ate of mine!

Unexpectedly, as soon as the spiritual power made contact with the clamshell, a 'boom' exploded in Suming's mind!

This surge of spiritual power that was meant to burst the clamshell, like a primer, completely ignited the already full clamshell!

A wave of energy, all too familiar to him, returned from the clamshell to his body in an instant, becoming a 'light orb' only he could feel!

This change was hard to describe, but he could clearly sense that the 'light orb' contained the very spiritual power that the clamshell had absorbed earlier!

It naturally became clear why the orb had appeared.

It was akin to a 'backup spiritual power storage,' containing precisely the amount of spiritual power that had been absorbed. Should he wish to use it, he need only shatter the orb in his mind to gain access.

"I think I understand now..."

Suming was overjoyed, realizing that this indeed was another upgrade from his friends in the animal kingdom!

The clamshell had absorbed all his spiritual power, then nourished him in return, becoming his storage depot. So, once his body was fully replenished with spiritual power, it meant he effectively had double the amount he started with.

But... there was currently no use for spiritual power. If this was the extent of its abilities, it seemed a bit too ineffectual...

Could there be some special effects yet to be discovered?

————Dividing Line————

What's going on today? There are so many rewards... It seems like I have to add more chapters after all. Let's add two chapters as a small token of appreciation.

I was supposed to go on a blind date tonight and would likely return very late. These two chapters were prepared in advance... But then I thought about it, blind dates come and go, but rewards are rare. So, I decided to take care of the extra chapters first!

Though only two chapters, the sentiment they carry is priceless...
