How do you strengthen yourself?

New Monster Powers!

Your current state as a weakling might play in your favor. Melanoche said that you could acquire new monster powers based on fulfilling conditions. Finding the TimeFruit Juice or gaining an Elemental Infusion was impossible since you were completely immobile, as was the Status Effects Monster power. Broodsire was quite worthless as an ability, leaving you with Final Form. Thinking back, you remember that Final Form was quite a tough power to acquire.

To acquire final form, you would have to face off against opponents of equal or superior strength on a regular basis and face **** repeatedly. For a normal monster, such a thing would be hazardous, gambling your life facing off against greater and greater prey. For you, this was Thursday.

The monsters invading your dungeon outlevel you by a significant margin and have the advantage of ice magic. Of course, your buffs ensure that you are still capable of fending them off, but in pure stats they outclassed you. It seems plants and sex monsters weren't particularly known for their combat prowess. The only thing you overwhelmed them in was pure defense, slowing their advance to a crawl. Since your new body has no need for sleep or rest and completely heals every hour, you can take as many beatings as possible and heal over them faster than they can be destroyed. Grinning to yourself, you begin your training regiment.

Ordering your minions to your main body, you permit several of your enemies to enter your dungeon, storming through the jungle that is your body crushing everything in their path. When they've cleansed more than 90% of your biomass, you call upon your minions to aid you, buying you time as you pump your restoration potions into your own body. Your already incredible vigor is boosted by the restoration potions, allowing you to return to full health in several minutes, giving you the means to grab ahold of your invaders and throw them to the very borders of your dungeon to repeat the process. This process continues repeatedly until one day, your eldest daughter calls you up.

"Father, this one stopped moving." Halria shouts, her elven features contorted into a mix of annoyance as she threw a rock at the fallen creature, her blow doing nothing to stir the creature. The beast was one of the many wolves in the area that realized the you are a verdure/Erosarkin hybrid, meaning that you were a constant self replenishing source of meat hidden in a wooden tree shell. It had been attacking you for the past week nonstop, freezing you and feeding off the chilled meat.

"I see. Good work Halria." You say, activating God's Eye and staring at the wheezing wolf.

Activate Skill: God's Eye

Race: Elder Arctic Wolf

Class: N/A

Level: 640

Skills: Detection, Hibernate, Frigid Fang, Howl, Slash, Frenzy

Status: **** Fatigue

Though your instincts tell you to kill the wolf here and now, leveling up would be working against you. You need your enemies to be stronger than you at this very moment.

"What shall I do with this thing?" Halria asks as you grab the wolf with several of your tentacles.

"Take it to a safe area, and after a few hours, kill it." You order while injecting the wolf with several paralytic toxins, thinking back to the odd experience system of this world. If you fought an enemy alongside an ally, the experience points were divided up equally with everyone. Conversely, if you were to capture an enemy, wait a few hours, and then kill it, the killer would reap all the experience points. Obeying your wishes, Halria followed the wolf, disappearing into the jungle while you returned your focus to fending off yet another wave of monsters. As they reached the core of your dungeon for what felt to be the thousandth time, you feel your body shift, a strange surge of power filling you.
