Elijah looked at Yello in astonishment. Somehow, the dog had grown a bit taller without anyone noticing.


    Its fur had be extremely smooth, as if a breeze was constantly flowing over it, and its eyes were more lively than before!


    "Has Yello awakened too? What ability?" Daisy ran over joyfully and hugged Yello, feeling its fur was incredibly soft, and sensing a gentle breeze emanating from it.


    "I''ll try to mimic the ability!" Since Yello couldn''t speak, Elijah attempted to imitate it, but quickly realized that the dog''s physiological structure waspletely different from a human''s, making it impossible for him to replicate.


    "I can''t mimic it!" Elijah shook his head, then a hint of coldness shed in his eyes. If he couldn''t mimic the ability, what use did he have?


    "Why not just ughter and eat the dog; maybe it could awaken someone else!" Sensing Elijah''s cold gaze, Yello broke free from Daisy''s embrace and skipped over to Elijah, rolling over and showing a remarkably human-like expression, as if to say, "I''m very obedient."


    "Alright, get up now. Go outside and demonstrate your ability for us!" Elijah couldn''t help but chuckle at Yello''s antics.


    Yello immediately flipped over and dashed a few steps outside the vi.


    "This speed..." Elijah and Daisy exchanged a nce before joining everyone outside.


    Once Elijah and the others hade out, Yello shook its body and then nced back at Elijah, indicating it was about to begin!


    With Elijah''s nod, Yello immediately shot off, its body moving gracefully and silently, like a ghost, without making a sound throughout its sprint.


    Yello swiftly circled nearby and returned to the front of the vi without approaching Elijah and the others.


    Instead, it stood behind a row of shrubs and suddenly let out an ear-splitting roar.


    The roar howled, and a gale force wind rushed out, blowing towards the bushes in front of it. The shrubs seemed to be swept over by a typhoon, countless leaves torn and swirling!


    By the time the wind wave reached Elijah and the others, it had lost most of its power.


    "This fellow has awakened wind abilities, enhancing its speed to run like the wind and using roars to release strong winds carrying tiny wind des. The damage isn''t great, but it''s highly insulting!" Elijah pinched his nose. The stench was unbearable!


    "Well, we''re not expecting it to fight. Just to roar as a warning at critical moments!" Daisy also pinched her nose, frowning slightly.


    "Yeah, that''s right. With Whitey patrolling the sea and Yello patrolling the ind, it''s not bad at all!" Elijah nodded in satisfaction.


    "Oh, Katherine, don''t waste the branches of the harvested Red Fruits. Give them to the cowster; who knows, they might awaken some ability too!"


    "Alright!" Katherine responded.


    After everyone had watched Yello''s disy of abilities, they returned to the vi one by one.


    Then Elijah took out a bottle of potion and said to everyone, "Today, I''ve made another second-tier potion. I want to give this bottle to Katherine. There are two reasons: first, she has cultivated a mass-producible variant of spirit nts—the low-grade version, Red Fruits!


    When the Red Fruits mature on arge scale in the future, everyone can eat them daily, which I believe will rapidly enhance everyone''s strength. The second reason is that I hope Katherine, after advancing to the second tier, will have stronger abilities to cultivate Red Fruits for us.


    Hopefully, one day, we can cultivate Red Fruits that are not inferior to spirit nts and can be grown on arge scale!"


    The women listened without objection, all apuding enthusiastically.


    Katherine quickly stood up to thank everyone and then epted the advanced potion.


    "I added some Red Fruit into this potion, so the taste shouldn''t be too bad, and you won''t need to replenish Chi through food anymore!" Elijah said with a smile.


    Katherine nodded and then, under everyone''s gaze, tilted her head back and drank the awakening potion.


    True to Elijah''s words, this advancement didn''t cause her any difort; instead, she felt a warm sensation throughout her body, as if she had boundless energy.


    "How do you feel? Any changes in your abilities?" Grace asked beside her.


    "The energy inside me feels much stronger now. It should be much easier to cultivate spirit nts in the future!"


    Katherine recalled how exhausted she had been after cultivating Crystal Grassst time.


    "In addition, I feel like I can grow nts faster now, and I can also control their movements!" Katherine continued, pulling out some seeds from her pocket.


    After carefully selecting one, she released her ability on it.


    The seed quickly sprouted and grew into a vine at an incredibly fast pace, then, under Katherine''smand, it entwined towards Grace nearby.


    Grace cooperated without resistance and was soon securely tied up by the vine around her legs and chest.


    Elijah watched as the vine wrapped around Grace''s chest, making her front particrly prominent, and nodded approvingly.


    "Katherine seems quite talented at binding! We should exchange ideas sometime!" he remarked.


    "This vine is quite strong!" Grace tried to struggle but couldn''t break free.


    "Hehe, of course. I deliberately chose a tough variety of vine!" Katherine stopped her ability, and the once lush vine immediately withered and died, bing dry and fragile.


    "If used unexpectedly, it''s actually a pretty good control skill!" Elijah nodded.


    After cleaning up the dishes and chatting for a while longer, everyone dispersed.


    Jasmine finished three Red Fruits with great anticipation but unfortunately didn''t awaken like Yello had. With even the dog on the ind gaining abilities, she felt left out.


    Before leaving, Jasmine cast a somewhat resentful nce at Elijah. Over the past few days, she had tried every means possible to please him, hoping to win his favorpletely.


    Her resentful look made Elijah feel a bit awkward for a moment. But then, an idea struck him.


    "Katherine has reached the second tier in her abilities. Maybe if she cultivates Zombie Grass now, the results will be better?" he thought to himself.


    Acting on the thought, Elijah entered the spirit nts cultivation room and switched to Katherine''s ability. He targeted a newly growing Zombie Grass and elerated its maturation.


    As expected, where Katherine used to only be able to grow one leaf, Elijah effortlessly coaxed two leaves out of the Zombie Grass. It rapidly entered thete growth stage, nearly reaching maturity.


    "This should do the trick," Elijah thought, immediately sending a signal to Jasmine.


    "Tonight, bothnd and sea!" he signaled. "Time for her to really impress."
