Chapter 21: Capturing a Common‑Level Little Spirit!

After swallowing the fruit, in an instant a faint sheen flickered across Miaomiao's body.

It was vague and fleeting.

"Meow!"

As Miaomiao let out a light chirp, its body emitted a series of crackling sounds.

Those were the sounds of its bones stretching.

At first glance, it seemed as if Miaomiao's size had grown a bit.

【Shining MeowMeow (General Type)】

【Level: LV19 (Novice Level)】

【Trait: Technical Expert】

【Skills: Scream, Gather Treasure Skill, Claw, Bite Hold, Palm Strike Surprise】

【Potential: Quasi King Level】

【Shining Trait: King of the Night: In darkness, all abilities increase by 50%】

Looking at the Shining MeowMeow before him, Lin Mo's mouth curved into a smile.

His power had risen to the peak of the novice stage, and his aptitude also broke through to Quasi King Level.

"I could go to the Dragon Head Secret Realm for some luck!"

Lin Mo muttered, then smoothly took a Spirit Ball from his pocket.

He gently touched the Shining MeowMeow before him.

Accompanied by a flash of red light, the Shining MeowMeow was instantly captured inside the Spirit Ball.

Since school ended early today, it's still not (time).

"Let's go!"

Lin Mo whispered a word, left the residential area directly, and hailed a taxi.

"Driver, Dragon Head Mountain!"

Hearing Lin Mo, the driver glanced at him and nodded slowly.

After a little over half an hour, Lin Mo had arrived at Dragon Head Mountain.

Water Spider: It normally lives in water, but will wear a bubble to go onto land in search of food. Because it only absorbs oxygen dissolved in water, it wears a bubble on land for breathing and to protect its soft head.

This is recorded in the Little Spirit Handbook.

Therefore, in Secret Realms crisscrossed by streams, Water Spiders may appear.

Surveying the myriad Secret Realms near Jinling City.

The Secret Realms with many streams also have them.

But those Secret Realms are too dangerous for Lin Mo to enter now.

"Hmm!"

Accompanied by a wave of dizziness, when Lin Mo opened his eyes again, he found himself standing in a dense jungle.

"Pat!"

Two Spirit Balls landed with a sound.

Da Zhen Feng, Miaomiao.

The two Little Spirits landed on either side of Lin Mo; Miaomiao's keen eyes scanned the surroundings.

It seemed to be on guard against dangers from the jungle.

"Hehe!"

Lin Mo chuckled softly, extended his right hand, and gently patted Miaomiao.

I must say, his efforts haven't been in vain; Lin Mo's bond with Miaomiao has grown closer.

Now it already acknowledges Lin Mo.

"Ding dong! A Little Spirit Rada spotted 100 meters ahead!"

【Rada (General Type)】

【Level: LV20 (Common Level)】

【Trait: Perseverance】

【Skills: Impact, Tail Wag, Flash of Electric Light, Grinding, Heavy Strike, Malicious Pursuit】

【Potential: Common Level】

Hearing the System Prompt Sound at his ear, Lin Mo's eyes brightened; he hadn't expected to encounter a Common Level Rada as soon as he entered the Secret Realm.

"Even though it's just a Rada, if you sell it—"

Lin Mo stroked his chin and murmured softly, "One or two ten‑thousands should fetch it!"

"Go take a look!"

Lin Mo glanced at the two Little Spirits beside him and strode forward.

With the System Prompt Sound present, Lin Mo needn't worry about Little Spirits suddenly appearing around him.

Each year, millions of trainers die at the hands of wild Little Spirits without ever summoning one.

But Lin Mo, who has the system, doesn't have to worry about that.

He pushed aside the shrubbery ahead, and a Rada appeared before his eyes.

The Rada kept swinging its sharp claws, scraping several branches.

"Crack!"

Its Common Level power allowed the Rada to lightly swing its claws, leaving deep, bottomless scratch marks on the tree.

Drops of milky resin dripped down.

Lada sticks out its tongue and gently licks.

These resins are Lada's food.

"Grinding!"

Lin Mo looks at the Da Zhen Feng beside him and says, "Then random strikes!"

"Bang bang!"

The Da Zhen Feng taps its steel needles, producing crisp bang‑bang sounds.

Faint strands of white light veil the steel needles.

After speaking, Lin Mo pats Miaomiao on the forehead, "Miaomiao, Palm Strike Surprise! You go first!"

"Whoosh!"

Accompanied by a slicing sound, Miaomiao leaps out first.

From afar it looks like a black silhouette that instantly appears before Lada.

"Stab!"

The sharp Claw instantly leaves a bloody mark on Lada.

Following that, the Da Zhen Feng's sharp steel needle drives hard into Lada's chest.

"Wooo!"

Affected by the Palm Strike Surprise, the wounded Lada curls up and lets out a howl.

It didn't even dodge.

"Stab!"

The razor‑sharp steel needle pins Lada to the tree trunk in an instant.

"Poison Needle!"

At close range, several deep‑purple Poison Needles continuously pierce Lada.

In the blink of an eye, Lada before us becomes a hedgehog.

"Stab!"

After successive wounds, Lada's eyes turn blood‑red; it swings its sharp Claw forcefully onto the steel needle ahead.

The tremendous force flings the Da Zhen Feng dozens of meters away.

"Buzz buzz buzz!"

The Da Zhen Feng beats its wings hard enough to dissipate that great force.

"Ordinary‑grade Little Spirit, you're stronger than I imagined!"

Lin Mo's eyes flicker; the repeatedly wounded Lada still has the strength to counterattack.

If it weren't for Lada's short arms, this Claw would have landed on the Da Zhen Feng.

It could have instantly stripped it of combat ability.

Lin Mo's eyes flicker as he glances at Lada in the distance.

He sees a hint of purple aura on its body.

Obviously, the earlier Poison Needles have taken effect.

"Consume stamina!"

Lin Mo glances at the two Little Spirits and says lightly, "Don't get hit by them!"

The Secret Realm journey has just begun, and Lin Mo doesn't want any Little Spirit injured right after entering the Secret Realm.

"Meow!"

Miaomiao understands and a dazzling golden light radiates from its forehead.

Under the shining gold, it instantly condenses into a pillar of energy light that slams down on Lada.

The Da Zhen Feng in midair swings its steel needle.

One by one, deep‑purple Poison Needles emitting a foul odor fall from the sky.

The already‑injured Lada's movement is restricted.

It cannot dodge at all.

It can only endure the two Little Spirits' techniques continuously landing on it.

"Rumble rumble rumble!"

Accompanied by a booming sound, Lada is instantly blasted to the ground.

Its eyes shut tight, its body convulses.

Clearly it has already lost its combat ability.

Seeing this, Lin Mo's mouth curves into a smile as he flicks his wrist.

A Spirit Ball lands steadily on Lada.

A flash of red light passes, and Lada is instantly captured into the Spirit Ball.

There is no hindrance at all.

Lin Mo walks forward slowly and picks up the Spirit Ball from the ground.

His gaze fixes on the Spirit Ball in his hand, a smile on his lips: "Ordinary‑grade Little Spirit! Got it!"
