Beast Taming Patrol Chapter 1523: 427: Lin Su's Decision (Double-Length, Finale Countdown: 24)
Previously on Beast Taming Patrol...
Caught in a moment of helplessness, Gui Gui swiftly hoisted the massive claw positioned behind him. With a bone-chilling howl, the limb expanded instantly against the wind until it reached a staggering size of several hundred meters, before lunging forward to seize the oncoming flames.
Talent Skill: Shadow Ghost Claw!
The dark, colossal claw erupted with the power of the Death Rule, grinding violently against the fiery radiance.
As the two opposing forces collided in the vacuum, the resulting shockwaves transformed into turbulent Energy Storms.
Following a piercing screech that set one’s teeth on edge, both the Shadow Ghost Claw and the blaze shattered at the same time. The fierce residual impact of the explosion forced Gui Gui to retreat several paces.
The other four onlookers were visibly stunned by the sight.
Tata had utilized the Fifth Movement, and its sheer strength had actually succeeded in repelling Gui Gui in a direct confrontation.
The feat was undeniably remarkable.
However, they now shared the same confusion that plagued Gui Gui.
Where was the retaliatory strike that had been promised?
Their bewilderment was short-lived, as the answer revealed itself in the very next heartbeat.
Once the offensive concluded, the aura of Recovery Power surged naturally around Tata’s form.
In an instant, Tata returned to her absolute peak condition, her energy reserves fully replenished after the exhaustion of performing the Divine Court Sacrificial Song’s Fifth Movement.
“This is the retaliation,” Tata remarked with a shrug, her expression radiating innocence.
She struck her foe and retaliated with her own restoration.
Gui Gui: “???”
The other four: “???”
Lin Su: “???”
“Your skill…” Lin Su’s face shifted dramatically, “The effect allows you to heal yourself after you launch an attack?”
“Precisely!” Tata confirmed with an excited nod. “It’s a passive skill; every strike generates an equivalent amount of recovery.”
What?!
Even though the group had suspected as much when they saw her reach full strength again, hearing the confirmation from Tata herself left the other five brimming with envy.
Did this not mean she possessed a limitless supply of power?
“Furthermore, this skill isn't limited to just healing me!” Her excitement grew as she felt the depth of the skill’s potential. “I can control the generated recovery to mend my allies as well.”
Upon hearing Tata’s further explanation, the shock on the faces of Lin Su and the others intensified.
One could only imagine the hopelessness an enemy would feel in future conflicts. Tata could battle her opponents while simultaneously restoring herself and her Sect members, with both actions occurring in perfect harmony.
“Aside from your core retaliatory strike and the Recovery Song, which has transitioned into a standard Talent Skill, what other abilities do you possess?” Qiuqiu couldn't resist asking.
After seeing Tata push back Gui Gui, he realized there was another formidable little comrade in the group to be wary of.
“This one is Comet Strike!” Tata brandished her Magic Wand and pointed it toward the distance.
A moment later, a terrifying sequence of sonic booms rang out. The Five-colored Stars revolving at the wand's tip exploded into five distinct beams of light, discharging immense power as they raced toward Tata's target.
The five beams spiraled and twisted around one another during their flight, drawn together like passing comets.
Eventually, they merged in a complete collision.
A thunderous roar followed as a devastating Energy Storm swept across thousands of meters. A mushroom cloud ascended slowly into the void, the apocalyptic explosion leaving a trail of dread.
The potency of this attack was only slightly inferior to the Fifth Movement Tata had previously used, the one known as Tribulation Ash.
Crucially, this skill required no chanting; it was a direct offensive technique that Tata had mastered herself.
As the retaliatory strike triggered once more and the Five-colored Stars began to reform at the tip of the wand, the expressions of the five companions shifted again.
Combining such a long-range assault with the broken passive effect of the retaliatory strike made her nearly invincible.
Noticing their reactions, a hint of pride surfaced on Tata’s face.
From this day forward, she was officially a beast capable of true combat!
In truth, she had already formulated a new combat strategy in her mind.
Since performing the Divine Court Sacrificial Song required time, she could simply chant while using Comet Strike to keep her enemies at bay!
She would no longer need her teammates to shield her during her songs; she could hold her own ground!
“This ability is called Thunderous Impact!” Tata proceeded to showcase her next new skill.
With a mere thought, the unique structure atop her head began to vibrate softly, and the gemstone set within it radiated a Five-colored glow.
The halos above her started to spin, trembling like ripples of sound waves.
Suddenly, Tata raised her Magic Wand and began to sing a familiar melody.
The Recovery Song!
The two abilities fused instantly. The restorative energy within the Recovery Song was massively amplified and bolstered.
If her previous healing capacity was rated at one, the support from Thunderous Impact boosted that effect to ten!
Once the song concluded, Tata explained, “This skill integrates the previous attributes of Singing Loudly, Going Crazy, and Lingering Echoes, while also adding a few extra effects.”
“What about the final two skills?” Youyou asked, her curiosity piqued.
Witnessing Tata’s growth in power made Youyou, her frequent sparring partner, eager to test her own limits.
“One is known as Head-on Blow!” Tata cheered up, waving her Magic Wand once more.
It was yet another offensive skill!
As she spoke, the Magic Wand underwent a rapid transformation.
The encircling Five-colored Stars were pulled into the wand, which then grew against the wind, shifting into a long, Five-colored staff.
