After using cheats, I became the strongest Beast Tamer

Chapter 277: Chapter 237 Skills Optimization 2.0



```

After having barbeque with Chi Ziyao, Chen Xing returned to his residence.

With military training the next day, he summoned his three Beast Tamings.

He was ready to see if there was anything that could still be optimized.

For Sìxiàng, there was no need for Chen Xing to worry; it trained automatically and independently, honing its primary beast on its own.

Without the need for its master's concern, its skill proficiency levels soared daily.

Chen Xing casually checked Sìxiàng's skill list.

To his surprise, he discovered a new skill that had breakthrough to a proficiency level surpassing advanced.

It was none other than the often-used Thunder Assault.

"Not bad, you're making quick progress." Chen Xing praised Sìxiàng.

Sìxiàng maintained a composed expression, but the feathers on its tail swayed slightly twice.

If it weren't much taller than Chen Xing, he might not have noticed it.

Lying in the back and acting as a backdrop, Taotie called out discontentedly.

It indicated that it had also been working hard lately.

"Good, I know you've been putting in a lot of effort lately, I'll check on you in a moment." Chen Xing soothed Taotie, who perhaps spurred by some stimulus, had recently started to put in more effort as well.

But this was a good thing.

If a Beast Taming worked hard, the Beast Tamer could relax quite a bit.

Upon hearing his master's praise, Taotie happily squinted its eyes.

Lately, it had been secretly training skills even while sleeping; however, some skills were too loud, so it could only pick those that were quieter, like Water Devouring.

For Water Devouring, the action involved repetitively swallowing water, drinking water, swallowing water, drinking water...

Whenever the water in the pool was nearly finished, it would have Dong Jun turn on the faucet nearby and fill the pool with water again.

Thunder Assault, as a skill that combines movement and damage, is still very practical.

Chen Xing opened the Sìxiàng's panel.

He found four skills that could be optimized.

Thunder Flash, Thunder Spear, Thunder Assault, and Soul Shock.

Let me take a good look at what the new optimization effects could be.

Please choose one of the following four optimization directions.

1. Increase skill casting distance. (Ordinary)

2. Reduce skill cooldown time. (Ordinary)

3. During skill cast, become completely immune to all physical damage and capable of releasing other skills while the initial skill is active. (Rare)

4. Increase skill power and add a paralysis effect. (Rare)

Chen Xing hesitated for a moment, both three and four were of rare quality, but in the end, he decided to choose 3.

Mainly because the description for three was a bit longer, and also the ability to release other skills while the initial skill is active.

If he could use Thunder Flash while on the move with Thunder Assault, wouldn't that be equivalent to a blink combined with Thunder Assault?

Because Thunder Flash isn't a spatial skill; it's just that it's so fast, it's almost at the speed of lightning, making it seem like a flash of light.

In terms of speed, it's much faster than Thunder Assault, although it doesn't have as far of a casting distance.

But if Thunder Assault is combined with Thunder Flash, wouldn't that be equivalent to a two-stage movement?

And in the meantime, he could also use damage skills like Thunder Spear.

Next, he optimized the Thunder Flash skill.

However, perhaps due to bad luck, he didn't encounter rare quality optimization effects in two consecutive attempts.

So, Chen Xing chose to reduce the cooldown time both times.

As a primary skill, Thunder Flash originally had a short cooldown; now, after reducing it twice, the cooldown time for Thunder Flash had become extremely short.

It could almost be used as a regular basic attack...

Thunder Flash+3

[Extra Effects]

1. After each Thunder Flash, a clone remains in the original location, the clone has a physical body, will temporarily stay for 30 seconds, and mimic the daily actions of the original according to the original's habits; the clone has only 10% of the original's physical strength and is unable to cast skills. (Law)

2. Skill cooldown reduction +2.

The Thunder Flash's law-level effect proved to be very useful; during the battle with the Burning Demonic Winged Evil Dragon, according to Sìxiàng's retelling afterwards, it left behind a clone on the spot after using Thunder Flash.

The Burning Demonic Winged Evil Dragon took the clone for the real thing and struck down hard...

As a result, it collided with the ground, and most of the force was absorbed by the earth; only a small part of the aftermath was borne by Sìxiàng.

Taking the opportunity with Thunder Flash, it swiftly moved behind the enemy's neck and dealt the final blow to the weak point there with Thunder Spear.

Even so, it still suffered serious injuries; had it taken that hit head-on, it's uncertain whether Sìxiàng would have been able to stand until the end.

So this Law effect was highly effective in the rapidly changing battlefield.

After all, this was a Law-level clone, not an illusion created by magic, and singling out the real body amidst the chaos was still very challenging.

Next were the remaining two skills.

Thunder Spear and Soul Shock.

The enhancement for Thunder Spear was also an ordinary one out of three, and in the end, Chen Xing chose to increase the power of the skill.

With a +5 Thunder Spear, the increase in power had already reached +4.

As an intermediate skill, Thunder Spear, having received a +4 enhancement, was already comparable in ordinary power to most solo thunder element advanced skills.

When it came time to optimize Soul Shock, a law-level effect finally appeared!

Chen Xing breathed a sigh of relief at heart; it was about time he got something good after being unlucky three times in a row.

Soul Shock+5

[Extra Effects]

1. Enhanced shock effect +3

2. When the target's soul quality is far inferior to Sìxiàng's, Soul Shock has the chance to shatter the target's soul directly. (Rare)

3. When casting the skill, soul damage comes with thunder damage and has a purification effect. (Law)

This purification effect is rather mysterious; he'll have to find some test subjects to try it out on when he has the chance.
