Chapter 1043: Jade Contract
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Yuan did not know what the Mother of Bloodbath was thinking. If he did, he would feel extremely wronged.
How was he a perverted hopeless romantic?
If he were, he would not still be single.
Lin Yuan sat in the snow for the entire night. He noticed that Gray absorbed both the snowy weather and cloudy weather together. There was no conflict between the two kinds of weather.
Now, Gray had evolved to Elite IX/Epic.
It only needed one more step up to evolve to Bronze grade.
The night was almost over, and the sky was slowly becoming brighter.
There was less cloudy weather for Gray to absorb. Instead, there was now more clear weather for it to absorb.
The sky was almost completely bright, and the snowfall had slowly decreased.
Gray was now Elite X/Epic, and its cloud abruptly expanded.
It now had three exclusive skills as well for Lin Yuan to choose from.
With this, Lin Yuan knew that Gray had evolved to Bronze grade.
Lin Yuan straightened his posture and solemnly looked at the first exclusive skill.
{Endless Clouds]: When the cloud becomes thinner, it can fuse with and control natural clouds to increase the area covered by its cloud.
Lin Yuan ma.s.saged his temple vexedly.
Previously, Endless Cloud would have struck all the right chords with Lin Yuan.
He had wanted Genius to use Connected Tails to connect Wen Yu and Gray so that Wen Yu would be able to hide in Gray’s clouds and use Hear Heaven’s Secrets to go out and collect information.
Endless Clouds would be able to execute this idea perfectly.
But now, with three kinds of weather within it, Gray was just like a blinking traffic light. If its cloud expanded, it would only stand out more. Hence, Lin Yuan abandoned the first exclusive skill.
As Gray increased its power, its cloud would also become bigger.
Lin Yuan moved on to the second exclusive skill.
[Flowing Clouds Nirvana]: The cloud will never fade, and its life will never end. If the body is killed, but a wisp of cloud remains, the cloud will turn into an egg that will eventually hatch and revive.
Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow at the second exclusive skill as it suited his needs well.
It was now extremely easy to spot Gray.
If it were attacked before it became stronger, it would likely lose its life.
However, Flowing Clouds Nirvana would increase Gray’s chances of survival.
Lin Yuan decided that if the third exclusive skill was just as useless as the first exclusive skill or if it was unusable, he would choose Flowing Clouds Nirvana.
When Lin Yuan saw the third exclusive skill, he immediately started to guffaw.
Uade Contract]: Condense every type of weather absorbed into a jade. The jade will adorn the feathers. Once the weather turns into a jade decoration, the cloud will no longer carry the aura of that weather. When the jade decoration is activated, every type of weather will turn into a jade beast.
The third exclusive skill solved the issue that Lin Yuan had been grappling with ever since Gray started absorbing weather phenomena.
With Jade Contract, Gray would be able to blend in with the other clouds and s.h.i.+eld the Floating Island Whale and Dark Blue as well.
Moreover, Jade Contract also gave Gray a new fighting technique.
Gray would be just like a spirit qi professional while the weather types would become its feys.
It would be able to absorb different weather to evolve its jade beasts.
Now, Gray would be able to fight head-on as well by strengthening itself while weakening its enemies.
Naturally, Jade Contract also had its weaknesses.
Jade Contract would result in jade accessories appearing on Gray. The more weather types Gray absorbed, the more accessories it would gain.
This would make Gray stand out even more.
Luckily, Gray could also obscure itself in its cloud. As such, it would be difficult to spot it even with all the accessories on its body.
‘The jade accessories on Gray’s body would also make it easier for Lin Yuan to follow Gray’s movements.
After Lin Yuan chose Jade Contract as Gray’s exclusive skill, the cloud in the sky dispersed.
As it stretched further, it eventually covered an area of 1,000 square meters.
The silhouette of a crane with a sun-shaped yellow jade accessory, a moon-shaped purple crystal, and a snowflake-shaped blue crystal on it emerged from the cloud.
Lin Yuan knew that Gray was flying toward him, and he stretched his arms out to catch it.
He soon realized that it did not become any heavier despite having evolved.
After absorbing the snowy weather, Gray gained a new ability.
[Frozen Snowy Day]: In an area covered by clouds or after the weather has been changed to become snowy, all lifeforms will be branded with the snowy weather imprint. Friendly lifeforms will be able to produce more powerful ice-type attacks, and water-type abilities can also become ice-type. Enemies
will be frozen, numbed, and experience other negative effects. Fire-type effects will also become less effective.
Lin Yuan did not know if it was because Gray had absorbed more snowy weather than clear weather and cloudy weather, but the effects of Frozen Snowy Day were more elaborate than Radiance of a Sunny Day and Darkness of a Cloudy Day.
Lin Yuan immediately thought of Dark Blue.
If Frozen Snowy Day could turn water-type abilities into ice-type, when Dark Blue used Halted Flow, the waterfall that descended would become a mountain of ice instead..
