Chapter 18 Communicating with Animals
You experienced chases, confrontations, tests, and compromises with ancient beasts.
You have finally established an initial cooperative relationship, and the wild beasts have voluntarily entered your territory, marking a new stage in the bond between you.
You have gained a completely new understanding of the art of beast taming. True beast taming is not about subjugating them, but about walking alongside them.
【Beast Taming: Lv1 → Lv2】
[Lv2: You have gained the passive ability "Basic Beast Language": You can roughly sense the emotions and intentions of beasts with whom you have formed a bond.]
[Pampering Level: Lv2→Lv3]
Bai Sheng leaned against the door frame.
I read those lines again from beginning to end.
The term "favorability" refers to the close relationship he has with animals.
The higher the level of affection, the more pets will be willing to get close to him, trust him, and follow him.
The concept of "beast taming" is extremely mysterious.
For example, after reaching the second order,
They awakened the ability to communicate with animals.
Bai Sheng tried to focus his attention on the two fluffy balls on the sofa.
The passive ability "Basic Understanding of Beast Language" triggers automatically.
Sure enough, the signal came through immediately from the calico cat's side.
It was as if an invisible thread connected his forehead to itss.
But there was no response from Fat Orange.
It's like being blocked from the outside by a foggy barrier.
He guessed that the level of affection might not be high enough, meaning the favorability value was insufficient.
It's also possible that the ancient beasts are of too high a grade, and the passive abilities cannot penetrate them for the time being.
He didn't care anymore; he would listen to Sanhua first.
The three-flowered cat curled up on the sofa armrest, licking its front paws.
Lick twice, pause, and twitch the ear.
Thoughts came through my mind intermittently.
It did not form a specific sentence.
More like emotions and feelings.
It was automatically translated into human language by his brain.
"My front paws are covered in dirt, and I feel uncomfortable if I don't lick them clean..."
"This place is much better than outside!"
I'm sleepy...
as predicted,
About two minutes later,
Sanhua shifted her position, pressing her back against Bai Sheng's outer thigh.
With a snort.
Fell asleep.
Bai Sheng moved the calico cat further onto the sofa cushions.
I got up and sat down at my desk, turning on the desk lamp.
The neighborhood was quiet.
All that could be heard was the humming of the air conditioner's outdoor unit.
Bai Sheng stared at the label "Xiantian Daoshu" on his Chinese textbook.
He's gotten used to people having entries appear on their names.
He's started to accept terms related to animals.
However, it appears on objects, such as textbook necklaces.
These inanimate objects also began to show labels.
That would mean something entirely different.
If I'm not overthinking it.
The appearance of labels on objects marks a key date:
That day, in a mountain village on the southeastern coast of the Federation,
The thick fog was so thick that even indoors, people's faces were not visible.
Yangcheng is only three or four hundred kilometers away from that village.
Bai Sheng was convinced that this was no coincidence.
The changes in the future will inevitably be earth-shattering.
Thinking back to the beginning,
In 752 AD, housing prices across the entire Federation rose steadily.
It has been rising steadily for a full twenty years.
Who could have imagined that in just three to five years, it would turn into the current decline?
There will definitely be even bigger changes in the future.
Bai Sheng believed that
There will be a reshuffling that is even bigger than the real estate industry.
At that time, the underlying logic of the federal government's operation will change.
Thinking of this,
Bai Sheng couldn't help but feel his heart surge with excitement and his blood boil.
Compared to ordinary people who are completely unaware of this, how much ahead are they?
How delightful!
Bai Sheng paced excitedly around the room.
When I was in school, I always tried to stop myself from thinking about these things.
So as not to let the other people in the dormitory notice anything amiss.
Now I have my own room and I'm undisturbed.
I found myself unable to suppress my overwhelming emotions.
Bai Sheng walked to the refrigerator, opened a bottle of cola.
He gulped it down.
"Ha~" Bai Sheng burped.
comfortable.
How strong am I right now?
Bai Sheng calmed down and began to think about the problem.
Basic,
Has he broken any world records in terms of strength and speed?
It's basically a sure thing.
Bai Sheng took out his phone.
I first checked the world records for several basic physical fitness events.
Snatch 220 kg, Clean and Jerk 267 kg, 9 sprint 58 seconds...
Bai Sheng went to the refrigerator and gripped the bottom edge of the refrigerator with one hand.
I tried lifting it up a bit.
Without using all their strength,
The refrigerator is off the ground on all four legs.
The Coke can in the freezer made a clattering sound.
Put it down.
There was no discomfort in my fingers.
We don't have the means to measure the data yet.
But after searching for the refrigerator's specifications,
The weight is conservatively estimated to be over 200 kilograms.
well,
He broke the world record in weightlifting with one hand.
We don't have the means to measure the speed yet, but there's no need to worry.
It has broken the world record.
Bai Sheng didn't feel particularly excited.
On the contrary, I feel a bit... is it really that simple?
In just a few days, humanity has broken through its limits by a tiny fraction of what takes years to achieve.
He broke through directly.
Human limits are still too weak...
He easily broke the world record in the second stage of body tempering.
Going forward, the idea of indestructible bodies and immortal flesh might not be such a pipe dream after all.
Thinking of this,
Bai Sheng eagerly flipped to the second lesson in his textbook.
Four chapters of the *Tao Te Ching*.
I memorized it in high school.
"The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao; the name that can be named is not the eternal name..."
Start reciting silently from the beginning.
Having learned from the experience of "Exhortation to Learning", this time I won't rush to solve the mnemonic devices; I'll memorize the whole text first.
The four chapters of Lao Tzu are not long; he memorized them perfectly in less than twenty minutes.
"It is precisely because he does not contend that no one in the world can contend with him!"
Once the words were spoken,
The true qi in the dantian suddenly started moving on its own.
Unlike the surging, fierce momentum of the innate grappling technique, which rushes towards the fingers,
A warm, moist current slowly spread across his chest and abdomen.
It felt like someone had opened a valve inside his chest.
Small black text then popped up in front of me:
[Mental Cultivation Method: Profound Qi Technique (Beginner): 0/5] +
Bai Sheng tried to activate the Mysterious Qi Technique.
It completed one small cycle.
The slight exertion required during a physical fitness test can be completed in the blink of an eye.
It was quickly made up for.
It seems to be a mental cultivation technique that provides sustained power.
It's just a pity that there aren't enough cultivation points to invest right now.
"I almost forgot again."
Bai Sheng glanced at the clock.
I almost forgot that I had to tutor Little Fatty today.
Bai Sheng took a taxi to the chubby boy's house.
Two hours passed quickly.
Before leaving,
Little Fatty took a bottle of iced tea from the refrigerator.
He insisted on stuffing it into the side pocket of his backpack.
Stepping out of the building entrance and standing at the stairwell,
You sat and discussed the Dao with your servant disciples, assisting them in their cultivation and teaching them divination techniques, gaining considerable insight.
Your perception of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth has become more acute.
[Second-order Perception: 5/20] → [Second-order Perception: 10/20]
"I really want to give that chubby kid extra lessons for free..."
Bai Sheng quickly dismissed the idea.
It simply won't work.
Why not use this time to look for opportunities hidden in the city?
I scanned a shared bike, with no destination in mind.
He rode south along the main road at the entrance of the residential area.
Walking through the food street in the old town,
I passed by a construction site fence that was still in operation.
Turn into a dimly lit alley,
Pink lights,
There were many girls soliciting business.
