Chapter 512: Zhou Yingxue“s superpower advancemen

Ren Xiaosu recalled that Zhou Yingxue was the first floral supernatural being he had encountered since the “Rise of Gods” started. She could be considered a relatively rare type in this sense.But even if she were a floral supernatural being, she shouldn’t be this weak. Although she could produce three types of seeds, only one of them could be used for combat.

Ren Xiaosu thought that since Zhou Yingxue could control plants, would there be a possibility that she could continue to further develop this superpower?

Importantly, all supernatural beings always had room for improvement.

After the two of them got out of the vehicle, Ren Xiaosu asked in the woods by the road, “Tell me, how did you first awaken your power?”

Zhou Yingxue said, “During a secret mission, I fainted after I got shot at. After waking up from my coma, I realized I could produce a seed out of thin air.”

Then Zhou Yingxue stretched her right hand out. A green glow continuously swirled at the tip of her index finger before finally “solidifying” into a seed.

Ren Xiaosu was taken aback. “It can even be done like that? Why does it sound like your awakening process was so simple?”

Zhou Yingxue said in surprise, “No one said it has to be difficult for supernatural beings to awaken their powers. That’s why some people say supernatural beings are Heaven’s chosen ones, and that they awaken once the moment is right.”

“Alrighty.” Ren Xiaosu had never asked others about how they awakened their powers before. He only felt that his own process of awakening his power was very tedious. The awakening itself might have only taken one moment, but the problem was that he kept falling into a coma every night before that happened.

It was precisely because of this that the refugees in town claimed something was wrong with his head.

Ren Xiaosu asked, “Can you communicate with other plants? Have you tried to before?”

Zhou Yingxue felt surprised again. “How can I communicate with plants when they don’t have a consciousness?”

Ren Xiaosu frowned. Zhou Yingxue had already shown she had an affinity with plant life when his Potato Shooter did not automatically attack her. In that case, could she control other plants as well?

He said in seriousness, “Sit over here and close your eyes, then try to sense the plants around you.”

Zhou Yingxue obediently sat cross-legged on the ground and closed her eyes. But less than a minute later, Ren Xiaosu heard a rumbling come from Zhou Yingxue’s stomach.

Zhou Yingxue opened her eyes and looked at Ren Xiaosu with distress. “Master, I’m hungry.”

Ren Xiaosu’s expression darkened. “Close your eyes and get a proper sense of the plants. If you don’t achieve any results, you can forget about eating!”

Ren Xiaosu had high expectations for Zhou Yingxue because he also possessed a floral power. Ever since he learned she was a floral supernatural being, he had always wondered if Zhou Yingxue could help strengthen his seeds.

As a matter of fact, the Potato Shooter was actually almost useless in combat. At most, it could be used to guard his home. However, it couldn’t withstand a supernatural being.

He could not really treat the Potato Shooter as a food power, right? That would leave the Potato Shooter with no dignity at all!

Of course, if other supernatural beings knew about his superpowers, they would probably find it even more unbearable than him. All other supernatural beings basically only had one power. ‘Since you already have so many other powers, what’s the big deal if one of them is almost useless?’

All of a sudden, Ren Xiaosu saw Zhou Yingxue open her eyes. A green glow had once again formed at the tip of her index finger which she then gently infused into a jujube tree. The entire tree started sprouting new buds, and the originally green jujubes on the tree turned fleshier one after another. They even ripened into a reddish color.

Not only that, but the tree also started lowering its branches slowly. It was as though they were offering the jujubes to Zhou Yingxue.

Ren Xiaosu asked, “Is this power something new?”

“Mhm.” Zhou Yingxue happily took a bite from a jujube. “It’s so sweet!”

“Is this the fucking time to eat jujubes?” Ren Xiaosu snapped at her. “So what power is this?”

“In the past, I thought that since plants don’t have consciousness, they’d have no way to establish a connection with humans, so I never tried to do so before.” Zhou Yingxue thought for a moment and said, “After you reminded me, I realize they felt familiar to me, and it’s like they yearn for the green glow in my hand. After I infused the plants with that green glow, I could gain control over them, and they became stronger than before and can even change their shapes slightly.”

Ren Xiaosu suddenly fished out a seed and handed it to Zhou Yingxue. “Infuse this with the glow again, then plant it personally.”

A moment later, Zhou Yingxue repeated the same process with the Potato Shooter seed. Then, she buried it into the soil. In just the blink of an eye, some buds started sprouting out of the ground and grew into… a Potato Shooter that didn’t look any different than before.

Ren Xiaosu was a little curious as he could still control the Potato Shooter. He did not lose his control over the Potato Shooter to Zhou Yingxue like what she had said earlier.

He looked at Zhou Yingxue. “Can you control it?”

“Yes.” Zhou Yingxue sized up the Potato Shooter curiously. “What is this? It’s like there’s a lot of fruit hidden underground, and it can even spit them out at breakneck speed.”

When Ren Xiaosu took back control of the Potato Shooter, he asked again, “Can you still control it now?”

Zhou Yingxue shook her head. “Not anymore.”

She looked at Ren Xiaosu in surprise. Was this Ren Xiaosu’s superpower? But it couldn’t be! Ren Xiaosu did not have a superpower like this based on the intelligence reports. Could it be that Ren Xiaosu had two superpowers?

Of course, if she knew the truth, she would likely get very annoyed. Ren Xiaosu’s superpowers did not only stop at two.

By this point, Ren Xiaosu had realized the Potato Shooter was a little different. After Zhou Yingxue had established a connection with the Potato Shooter and infused it with her power, it could be controlled by the two of them. Moreover, the most important difference was that it could now produce a 100 potatoes a day from its “magazine.”

Was he really about to embark further down the path of agriculture?!

Zhou Yingxue urged the Potato Shooter to spit out a potato. She suddenly looked up. “So the reason you gave me so many potatoes to eat back in town was because this plant produces potatoes?”

“Ahem, wouldn’t it be a waste if they’re not eaten?” Ren Xiaosu changed the subject and said, “Alright, let’s camp here for the night and set up the tent!”

Zhou Yingxue plucked a bagful of jujubes and ate them as she set up her tent. Her bulging cheeks made her look just like a hamster.

At this moment, a convoy of vehicles drove down from the north. However, it was made up of off-road vehicles that looked a little different than those commonly seen in the wilderness. For example, Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue had only driven either a green or a khaki-colored off-road vehicle before, while Luo Lan and his men traveled in off-road vehicles that were a solemn black. Things were different for this convoy that had appeared before them. It looked like the vehicles had been specially spray painted garish colors, and even the fitted tires were larger ones. The off-road vehicles had all been modified until they almost looked like dune buggies.

As the convoy approached, Ren Xiaosu could even hear the loud music coming from their vehicles. The young men and women in the cars were swaying to the beat of the music.

After the vehicles drove past Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue, they slowly turned back around. A group of young people got out and someone asked Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue, “Excuse me, is this the road leading to the Zhou Consortium?”

Ren Xiaosu looked up at them. As they were pretty polite, Ren Xiaosu answered, “Yes. You’ll get to the Zhou Consortium by traveling south for about 300 more kilometers.”

“Thank you.” Then the young man who had just asked for directions returned to the car and was about to step on the gas to continue on their way. However, a girl in the car suddenly exclaimed, “Look at that jujube tree! The fruit’s all so red and ripe!”

Ren Xiaosu quietly pulled his hood up and asked softly, “What’s that logo on their vehicles?”

There was a white logo that was exceptionally eye-catching on the bodies of the garish cars. It was obvious that it was an image of a snow mountain.

Zhou Yingxue whispered, “That’s the logo of the Qinghe Group. These people are from there. Reportedly, the snow mountain was designed by the founder himself after he conquered the highest mountain in the world.”
