Chapter 1937 Willow Grove Slope, Catching a New Favorite!
So one can imagine.
Until Fang Yun was reborn in his previous life.
The Mana Trap skill has not only failed to become popular, but has almost been forgotten.
However, the situation is much better for Manjusaka's other special skill, "spell resistance".
Spell resistance increases spell defense by level * 6, but reduces physical damage dealt by 10%.
The effect of Advanced Spell Resistance is to increase spell defense by level * 8, while also reducing physical damage dealt by 10%.
Judging from the skill description.
This spell resistance, like defensive skills, is a passive resistance skill.
The only difference is that the defense increases physical defense and reduces magic damage by 10%.
Spell resistance increases spell defense but reduces physical damage by 10%.
At first glance.
Applying this skill will increase your baby's magic defense, although it will reduce physical damage.
However, as long as it's applied to a magic-type pet or a blood-type pet, the magic resistance effect is still quite good.
But the problem is.
This skill appeared too late.
Before its emergence, spell defense had already dominated the world of spell resistance.
The key difference is compared to the effect of spell resistance.
Aside from requiring one turn to manually activate, spell defense is almost completely superior to spell resistance in every other aspect!
and so.
In a situation where only one of the two options can be chosen.
Unless someone's completely out of their mind, no one would choose spell resistance.
Of course, if you have plenty of money, then you can choose to have it all.
As for Fang Yun...
He might need to consider developing mana traps, but spell resistance is a no-brainer; as long as there's a slot, just spam it.
After all, it's a free boost to magic resistance, so why not take it?
Besides the Manjusaka, which comes with two brand-new special skills.
Two of the newly released summons also come with brand new special skills.
One is a golden-bodied Arhat with a built-in "shield aura" skill.
The effect of Shield Aura is to temporarily increase the user's defense by 1 level when entering battle after the 2nd round, and then decrease the defense by 0.2 levels each round thereafter, lasting for 5 rounds.
Judging from the skill description.
Like spell resistance, shield aura is a skill that adds value to existing abilities.
It would be better if it were there, but it wouldn't affect the overall situation if it weren't.
Moreover, this skill has an advantage over spell resistance: it can be used for both physical and magical attacks, since it has no side effects.
The other is the rare summon beast [Vine Fairy Flower], which comes with the special skill "Psionic Activation".
The effect of Psionic Activation is to temporarily increase the user's spell damage after use.
At first glance.
This skill is very simple and straightforward, and the improvement is obvious.
Fang Yun had taken the test in his previous life.
When the Psionic Energy is activated, a magic pet can generally increase its damage by 30%, which is even more powerful than a high-level Magic Heart!
But that's how powerful that skill is.
In his previous life, until the day Fang Yun was reborn, he was still in a state of limbo.
The biggest reason for this situation is...
Firstly, because psychic energy activation requires active release, which wastes a turn's opportunity to attack.
The psionic activation can only last for 5 rounds, including the round in which it is released.
Well known.
Just like magic-based characters, magic-type pets are designed to deal area-of-effect damage.
For players who deal area damage, the biggest taboo for both the player and the sect is wasting opportunities to attack.
It is a skill that can only last for 5 rounds.
If you choose to activate Psionic Activation in the first round.
So you'll find that after five rounds, you'll be able to finish it off quickly.
Compared to a magic pet that doesn't activate its spiritual energy, the total damage dealt by both is actually about the same.
This is very embarrassing.
Not to mention that psionic activation also comes with a taunting effect.
Once you activate this thing, you're almost guaranteed to be targeted by enemy fire in the next round.
In this situation.
Are you sure you can last 5 rounds?
Therefore, this skill attribute is typically theoretically invincible, but ineffective in actual combat.
of course.
It's not that psionic activation is completely useless.
Although it wastes a turn and makes you vulnerable to being focused down.
But if it hits Nefarian, the situation is different.
Nefarian is inherently very survivable.
Even when facing concentrated fire, as long as you can hold out, you can still reap good rewards.
You can even do the opposite and use this skill on a pure tank.
This way.
In actual combat, once you activate your spiritual energy, 'good luck' will naturally come.
all in all.
Compared to the almost useless magic traps.
The potential for developing psionic energy is quite large; it all depends on how Fang Yun wants to use it.
While recalling the various new skills in this version in his mind.
Fang Yun did not slow down and soon arrived in front of the innkeeper on the far left of the map of Longevity Village.
[Innkeeper]
"I can teleport you to the mysterious Willow Grove Slope. Would you like to go?"
Please take me there~
"I won't go yet."
Click to talk to the innkeeper. When the options box pops up, Fang Yun gently clicks the first one, and then his character appears in a brand new, lush green map!
The summoned beasts produced in Liulinpo are "Shura Puppet Ghost", "Vine Demon Flower" and "Mirage Demon".
Aside from the Mirage Demon, which is a rare summon, the Asura Puppet Ghost and the Vine Flower are both regular summons that can be captured once you reach level 155.
The map of Liulinpo in the previous life was not very popular.
But at this time of year, Liulinpo has become a popular spot for many players to level up their characters.
After all, many players were still in the leveling-up phase at this time.
Liulinpo is also a good place for players with a skill level of 153-163 to grind doubles.
So one can imagine.
When Fang Yun teleported into Liulinpo, quite a few teams had already arrived.
These teams aren't necessarily all there to grind for double experience; many are there to see something new and maybe catch a new pet.
But it is undeniable.
At this time, Liulinpo was not exactly overcrowded, but it was still bustling with activity.
Fang Yun came here for two reasons: first, to revisit familiar places, and second, to see if he could catch a few new babies to take back and play with.
Although the Willow Forest Slope map produces three types of summoned beasts, Fang Yun is only interested in one of them.
That's right, what interested him was neither the vine demon flower with its own spiritual energy nor the rare summon beast Mirage Demon, but the Asura Puppet Ghost!
At first glance, the new version of the Asura Puppet Ghost doesn't stand out among the many new summoned beasts.
But if you examine its panel and qualifications carefully, you'll know.
In terms of development potential, the Asura Puppet Demon is the undisputed king!
It is a summonable beast that can be carried by players who only need to be level 155.
The Shura Puppet Ghost's maximum growth rate reached an astonishing 1.285, which is 0.01 higher than the rising star, the Humanoid Mad Leopard!
Although it is slightly inferior to the Humanoid Mad Leopard in terms of offensive capabilities.
However, the Shura Puppet Demon's inherent skills completely make up for or even surpass this point.
Although both are five-skill summons.
However, the humanoid leopard comes with five skills: sneak attack, life steal, night battle, advanced flight, and advanced power.
And what about the Asura Puppet Demon?
Bloodthirsty Pursuit, Advanced Night Battle, Counterattack, Advanced Critical Strike, and Powerful!
Of these five skills, only the counter-shock is not very useful.
Other skills, whether it's Bloodlust Pursuit or High Night and High Critical Strike, are definitely top-tier offensive skills for pets!
Theoretically speaking.
A fully-skilled Asura Puppet Ghost doesn't even need a single skill book; it can be leveled up and used immediately after being crafted!
Its incredible practicality makes it so powerful that even calling it a "wild leopard" wouldn't be an exaggeration.
But when the Midas Touch expansion was first released.
Many players concluded after seeing the powerful aptitude and initial skills of the Asura Puppet Ghost.
The era of the Mad Panther will surely be ended by the Puppet Demon!
But actually?
The Asura Puppet Demon was released in 2012.
But more than ten years have passed.
Until the likes of Vaisali appeared and completely replaced the Mad Leopard.
The Asura Puppet Ghost has never become mainstream; the Humanoid Mad Leopard remains the top choice for players undergoing tribulation!
There are two main reasons for this peculiar phenomenon.
Firstly, humanoid leopards are rare, while Asura puppet ghosts can be caught easily.
Historically, rarity increases value, and in terms of rarity, the Asura Puppet Ghost is really nothing compared to the Mad Leopard.
Secondly, and most importantly.
It is common knowledge that humanoid leopards always possess the abilities of life steal and sneak attacks.
As a mainstream pet for demon fusion, it is necessary to have multiple skills, so the Mad Leopard is still the best choice for demon fusion. It is easy to fusion it with 6-7 skills.
But what about the Asura Puppet Demon?
Although his aptitude is excellent and his innate skills are very powerful.
However, the Asura Puppet Ghost only has one mandatory skill: Bloodlust Pursuit; the other skills are random.
Bringing too few items is already a major taboo in demon refining.
Not to mention, the Asura Puppet Ghost not only has only one mandatory skill, but the probability of getting it to have all the skills is also extremely low.
So one can imagine.
The two qualifications are not significantly different.
But it's just because of the difference between having one more or one less mandatory item.
The Asura Puppet Ghost, with its superior innate skills, was completely outmatched by the Humanoid Mad Leopard and could only become "other".
However, for Fang Yun...
He doesn't actually care whether the summoned beasts have many or few essential skills.
After all, there's a system to back it up.
Don't even mention that there's only one Asura Puppet Demon that you absolutely must have.
Even if it doesn't have any of the required skills, as long as you put in the effort and patience to combine them, you can always combine a multi-skill Shura Puppet Ghost.
The only potentially tricky thing is...
It's too difficult to reset the skills of a fully-skilled Asura Puppet Ghost.
Moreover, even if you manage to get it cleaned, it's difficult to create a top-tier embryo that's comparable to the Mad Leopard.
He will probably have to pay double or even several times the price, which is not cost-effective.
Too lazy to think too much.
Once inside Liulinpo, he took control of his character and quickly began exploring the entire map.
Willow Forest Slope is a map with hidden mines.
Before he could run very far, the scene shifted and instantly switched to a battle.
After entering the battle, he quickly glanced at the summoned beasts that appeared on the other side. He found that two of them were vine demon flowers and only one was a Shura puppet ghost.
He decisively chose to deal with the two vine demon flowers first, and then patiently began to capture the only Asura puppet ghost.
It didn't take long.
After several tugs of the gun, he successfully captured the Asura puppet ghost.
After his initial victory, he continued exploring the map while casually opening the interface of the Asura Puppet Ghost.

A quick glance revealed the unremarkable aptitude of this Asura Puppet Ghost.
Fang Yun remained expressionless, turned it off, and then threw himself back into a new round of catching pets.
Before we knew it, twenty minutes had passed.
It's really boring to wander around the map and catch babies all by yourself.
But for Fang Yun, who spends all day wandering around the map alone catching pets and refining demons, this feeling is not lonely at all, but rather quite comfortable.
So he wandered around Liulinpo for a long time.
Until the baby space he had vacated was almost full.
He then stopped and prepared to head home.
But just as he was about to leave, he subconsciously clicked the mouse, and his character was dragged back into the battle!
"Eh?"
Once again, we went into battle.
Fang Yun had originally planned to capture another Asura puppet ghost and take it back.
When he looked closely, he saw that a Shura puppet ghost baby had appeared opposite him!
"Isn't this a coincidence?"
Looking at the Asura Puppet Ghost Baby standing blankly opposite.
Fang Yun chuckled and grabbed him without hesitation!
And then he acquired this chance encounter with the Asura puppet ghost baby.
His baby compartment was completely full and there was no room left.
Leave the battle.
He first used the flight talisman to return to the rooftop of Chang'an, and then opened the summon beast list to check the aptitude of the Asura Puppet Ghost Baby he had just encountered.

"What the hell?!"
Open the qualifications interface.
As the Asura puppet ghost, which he had encountered by chance and acquired, came into view.
When Fang Yun saw that the candidate's qualifications were almost perfect in all aspects and the explosive growth rate of 1.285, he couldn't help but utter a national treasure!
When he saw the five initial skills lined up at the bottom.
He almost thought he was seeing things!
Be nice.
Don't people say that a fully-skilled Shura Puppet Ghost is extremely rare?
How come my guy just randomly grabs one and it's full of potential, full of growth potential, and even full of skills?
That's...quite unexpected.
seriously.
Judging from the aptitude of this Asura puppet demon.
Even if Fang Yun were to wash it himself, it would probably be difficult to get it clean in a short time.
Unfortunately, it's incredibly rare to find a baby with top-tier aptitude.
This made him sigh inwardly, could this be what they call an unexpected success?
And with the acquisition of this top-tier Asura Puppet Ghost.
Fang Yun, who originally just wanted to casually combine items to pass the time, suddenly felt that he needed to take it seriously!
Although the Asura Puppet Demon is not as popular as the Humanoid Mad Leopard, that's all from a past life.
At this point in time, or rather from today until the end of the year.
The Asura Puppet Ghost will become a popular pet during this period.
On the very first day that the new summoned beasts were released, he caught such a pet with unparalleled and explosive aptitude in every aspect.
Why not take this opportunity to merge them all and create a top-tier puppet ghost?
That would be a terrible waste of today's luck.
Just do it.
Hang the character on the rooftop.
He opened the warehouse, took out C66, and quickly started washing it.
Although that Asura Puppet Ghost Baby is very strong, it alone cannot be used for demon refining.
I want to create a embryo that I'm satisfied with.
He still needs to cleanse the other wild puppet ghosts first.
