Chapter 785: Chapter 785: Lake
The little demon lizard that erged from the skin had a tender new shell on its body, and the color was sowhat different from before.
The original demon lizard had a mix of black and white colors, but now its new shell was completely black, without any spikes, and was very smooth and shiny.
"The shedding demon lizard, its color changed from black and white to black, will it gradually grow white later?" While Chen Guan was pondering this, he noticed that the other little demon lizards also began shedding their old shells.
One by one, the small demon lizards crawled out of their old shells, much to Chen Guan’s surprise, completely at odds with his previous assumptions.
The demon lizards that shed their old shells were not all black; there was one white, one cyan, one blue-gray, one red, and one earth-yellow.
The colors of these little creatures’ new shells were all different, giving Chen Guan the feeling of opening a blind box.
"This isn’t right, their mother was black and white mixed, and they used to be that color too, so how did they change to different colors this ti?" Chen Guan thought to himself.
"They drank the water from the lake and suddenly started shedding, could it be that the lake water here facilitated their transformation? And even caused them to mutate?"
Chen Guan couldn’t help but glance at the lake water, clear as a green gem.
"If it really is as I think, then this whole pool of lake water - what a vast amount of energy that would be?" As Chen Guan thought, his eyes started to shine.
After all the little ones had returned to normal, the big demon lizard swept their discarded old shells into the lake with its tail and then waddled away with the multicolored little demon lizards.
Chen Guan didn’t follow them but summoned a falcon to track those demon lizards to see if they would return.
Chen Guan himself went to the lakeside, standing so distance away, and first summoned an ordinary ghost pet to drink the lake water.
"If this lake’s water could really let Secret Spirits grow and mutate, wouldn’t all my pets beco mutant babies?" Chen Guan thought happily.
The ghost pet approached the lake, ready to lower its head for a drink, but the lake water seed to recede like a tide, pulling back slightly.
"Eh!" Chen Guan frowned slightly and had the ghost pet continue to chase and drink the water.
But the lake retreated faster and faster, the ghost pet chasing desperately, unable to match the speed of the receding water.
Chen Guan told the ghost to stop, and the lake also stopped moving, no longer retreating.
Watching this, Chen Guan felt astonished: "Could this lake be alive? Why would it move on its own, preventing the ghost from drinking, do you need its chosen Secret Spirits to drink it?"
With this thought, Chen Guan recalled the ghost and summoned various pets, attempting to have them drink from the lake.
The results were almost the sa: as soon as the pets neared the lake and tried to drink, the lake quickly retreated.
From above, Chen Guan watched as the massive lake bizarrely moved through the desert at an incredible speed, even a speed-based level 60 Secret Spirit summoned by Chen Guan couldn’t catch up.
"Could this lake be a type of Secret Spirit as well?" Chen Guan thought, and withdrew the pets.
Recalling the demon lizards drinking water, he rembered that the big demon lizard didn’t drink at all, and its shell was the usual black and white, suggesting it possibly hadn’t drunk before either?
Of course, there’s another possibility: it drank the water before, leading to its black and white shell and giving birth to similarly colored offspring.
In any case, it didn’t drink the water this ti.
Could it be that adult Secret Spirits can’t drink the water? Or can the lake’s water only be drunk once?
Chen Guan couldn’t determine this and had to continue experinting.
If only young Secret Spirit children could drink the lake water, Chen Guan indeed didn’t have such a Secret Spirit Pet around.
Even Zhao Cai had grown up, now the size of a full-grown Siberian tiger, yet as fat as a pig.
Still adorable in appearance despite growing up, not having grown ugly.
Nonetheless, the little tiger, having grown for several years, still showed no signs of growing up, leaving Chen Guan wondering if it was innately dwarfed.
When it ca to using the little tiger for experints, Chen Guan was hesitant, as Warring States always treated it like his son, and if anything happened to it, Warring States would be devastated.
He has taken that responsibility well, treating the little tiger exceedingly well.
Interestingly, the little tiger hadn’t grown in size over the years, but its fur had deepened in color, now tinged with a reddish hue.
Plus, the little tiger was already several years old, probably not considered a baby now?
After thinking it over, and finding no young Secret Spirit Pets, Chen Guan had to change his strategy.
He recalled the small demon lizards drinking water, their shed shells being tossed into the lake by the big demon lizard.
If this lake really has self-awareness as a Secret Spirit, could this behavior be regarded as an exchange?
The lake knew the small demon lizards would shed after drinking, and needing those shells, led to a mutual understanding.
The lake not letting his Secret Spirits drink was because there was no such mutual understanding between them.
Thinking this way, Chen Guan took out a Ten Thousand Year Vermilion Fruit, tossing it into the lake, attempting an equal exchange.
But as soon as Chen Guan threw the Vermilion Fruit, the lake imdiately receded, not interested in his Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.
Chen Guan tossed several things, including Heavenly and Earthly Treasures and various Secret Spirit materials like bones, skins, and horns.
Yet the lake, acting as if it had cleanliness issues, no matter where Chen Guan tossed the items, would swiftly dodge, left and right, agile as a flying fat man despite being a huge lake.
"Fine, fine, you ungrateful lake, you refuse good intentions, right? Let
ask you once more, what will it take for you to let my pets drink water? If you behave, I’ll have them drink and leave, but if you ss things up, don’t bla
for getting rough." Chen Guan shouted at the lake.
After Chen Guan spoke, he waited for a while, but the lake showed no response, leaving him very frustrated.
"You really don’t know how to appreciate kindness," Chen Guan snorted coldly, trailing his finger through the air, weaving words of spiritual brilliance.
