Wait… I’m a Druid in a Cultivation World?! - Chapter 101

In the game, the skill Natural Perception had limited use, only coming into play in a few specific dungeons and remaining idle most of the time.

But in the world of cultivation, this skill proved useful almost every moment, becoming Qi Ping’s greatest confidence for navigating the cultivation world!
Whether Qi Ping was sleeping or traveling outdoors, in any place belonging to the natural world, he could sense things in advance.

Whenever danger, disaster, or even good fortune was approaching, Qi Ping could sense it beforehand!

Although he couldn’t predict the exact details, he could make judgments based on these sensations and his surroundings, then prepare accordingly.
“Now, when I travel through the cultivation world, I finally have something to rely on…”

Qi Ping was genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart about obtaining this skill!
Especially now, with the Qingtian Domain undergoing turbulent changes, and no one knowing when disaster might strike.

With the [Natural Perception] skill, no matter what dangers Qi Ping might encounter in the future, he could always find an environment to escape from in advance. Then, he could transform into a bee and disperse to flee among tens of thousands of bees!

For the two skills, [Natural Perception] and [Wild Transformation], Qi Ping was willing to call them the two super life-saving divine skills in the cultivation world!

[Skill selection completed. Generating data panel…]

(Druid Level EXP +196, Plant Growth EXP +81, Beast King’s Grace EXP +6, Bark Skin Technique EXP +236, Healing Technique EXP +51, Beast King’s Flame EXP +157)

Looking at his increasingly rich and powerful attributes panel, a smile unconsciously appeared on Qi Ping’s face.

Although he was already well aware of most of this data, all gained through continuous practice and comprehension, occasionally pulling it out to see how much stronger his attributes had become still gave him genuine satisfaction.

Moreover, this time he had added the two powerful skills, Natural Perception and Beast King’s Flame, both of which could provide significant help to Qi Ping at his current stage.

His Animal Companion slot had also increased by one, so it was indeed time for Qi Ping to contract a soul-type animal companion, especially since the companion slots were temporarily available.

And having ordinary talent in Comprehension and Soul had always been an issue.

Although continuously casting Plant Growth had exercised his soul considerably, enough to keep up with his current realm’s progress, the training effect was obviously less significant with his average innate talent. With the same effort, someone with better talent would achieve better results.

Therefore, fundamentally, obtaining talent related to Soul and Comprehension was absolutely essential!

“Besides, if my soul becomes stronger, I can cast Plant Growth more times, which would also increase the speed of cultivating spiritual herbs!”

To some extent, Soul and Comprehension talents were interconnected; gaining one would correspondingly enhance the other.

“Then, one week later, after the Spirit-Nurturing Honey is successfully brewed, I’ll make a trip to the Greenstone Market. I’ll use the Disguise and Bone-Shrinking Technique to change my appearance and meet Shopkeeper Gao. If possible, I’ll also visit Meng Yan and ask them to help find a soul-type spirit beast.”

Now that Qi Ping possessed both [Natural Perception] and [Wild Transformation], he could afford to be bolder in his actions.

Finding a suitable spirit beast probably wouldn’t happen immediately and might take considerable time, so Qi Ping felt it was better to inquire early. By the time one was found, he should have earned enough money.

Also, because the bees had been searching far and wide for food in the depths of the Misty Cloud Mountains during this period, the demand for Hundred Herb Grass had decreased significantly, allowing Qi Ping to have more Hundred Herb Grass for brewing Spirit-Nurturing Honey. Qi Ping could only think how considerate his bees were!

“If I find a good spirit beast early, I can also use Plant Growth to cultivate some more Hundred Herb Grass to increase my money-making speed; worst case, I can sell some other things…”

In any case, finding the third animal companion was a matter of sooner rather than later!

Finally, the attributes panel gave Qi Ping one more pleasant surprise: [Beast King’s Flame], newly acquired, had directly gained 157 experience points, raising its level directly to two.

“It seems my diligent study of the Fire’s True Meaning over the past two/three weeks has been effective. The strength of Beast King’s Flame is linked to my comprehension of the power of fire. This massive experience gain for Beast King’s Flame proves that my recent harvests in the path of fire have indeed been substantial.”

This small surprise also made Qi Ping particularly happy.

His tireless research, often forgetting food and sleep, had not been in vain; he was now reaping part of the rewards!
Although he was still far from comprehending the Fire’s True Meaning, which he most eagerly anticipated.

“Let’s see the power of this Beast King’s Flame.”

Qi Ping wanted to test the power of the level 2 Beast King’s Flame.

As he focused his mind, a flame instantly took shape in the palm of his hand.

It was a pure golden flame, looking particularly noble and magnificent, emitting an extremely unique aura of majesty.

“This appearance really lives up to the name Beast King’s Flame. Its presence and look are quite intimidating.”

Qi Ping found this somewhat amusing. If possible, he would have preferred something more low-key.

“But it’s not a big problem. Beast King’s Flame usually remains hidden within the body, and when used, it can be condensed from anywhere on the body…”

“As for power, it currently seems weaker than Ya Ya’s Sunfire Flame. But Beast King’s Flame has plenty of room for growth. Once I comprehend the Fire’s True Meaning, it might even match Ya Ya’s Sunfire Flame.”

Qi Ping had sufficient confidence in the growth potential of Beast King’s Flame.

Just as Qi Ping was about to dismiss the Beast King’s Flame, Ya Ya, smelling something, came flapping over at high speed.

“Caw caw! (Boss! What kind of flame is this?)”

“Caw! (It feels really powerful!)”

“This is my innate spirit flame that I’ve comprehended.”

As Qi Ping answered, he actually saw a rare look of desire in Ya Ya’s eyes.

“Caw caw! (Boss, can Ya Ya refine a little bit? I feel like this could be really good for Ya Ya’s innate spirit flame!)”
