After the Druid’s animal companion contract formation entered the little tricolor deer’s brow, Qi Ping quickly entered a special state of enlightenment. This time, his enlightenment lasted longer than any before. Even his previous sharing of the Mystic Fairy Spirit Fox’s Mystic Fairy Spirit Seal talent was far shorter than this.
When Qi Ping finally woke up from that special state, two whole days had passed!
“Goodness!”
“Two days went by!”
Upon learning how long he had been in that special state, Qi Ping was completely stunned.
“Maybe it’s because the tricolor deer is a Tier 3 Low spirit beast, or perhaps this time involved changes in comprehension…”
“But it was all worth it. After contracting three soul-type spirit pets, the comprehension talent I’ve been longing for has finally arrived!”
It took three tries to succeed just once—that probability isn’t exactly high.
But that single success gave Qi Ping a directly overpowered Tricolor Spirit talent!
[Shared Talents: Grand Brewer, Yang Fire Body, Mystic Fairy Spirit Seal, Hundred Pupil Demon Realm, Metal and Stone Body, Tricolor Spirit]
[Tricolor Spirit: Your soul possesses a special affinity for the forest. With this unique spirituality, you gain extremely high comprehension. You can also use this to perceive the power of the forest and command the strength that belongs to the forest!]
Tricolor Spirit is the core talent that makes the tricolor deer so powerful.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that after sharing the Tricolor Spirit talent, Qi Ping’s progress took off like a rocket!
Not only has his previously lacking comprehension greatly improved, but he can also use this talent to master the power of the forest.
And since he is a Treeman Shepherd who evolved from a Forest Druid, his affinity for the forest was already very high. Stacking Tricolor Spirit on top of that is truly a case of strength combining with strength!
At this moment, Qi Ping closed his eyes, and the power of the surrounding plants, trees, and forests appeared with crystal clarity within his perception.
Wherever his senses reached, countless forest plants and trees were cheering for him!
When the little tricolor deer saw this extraordinary scene, it was absolutely astonished!
“Yoyo~ (Wow! What’s going on?)”
Why was Qi Ping causing the power of plants, trees, and forests to resonate?
And it looked even stronger than its own!
Although the little deer was still a cub, it had inherited memories within its bloodline.
It knew very well the special status its bloodline held among plants and forests. There should be no creatures that could match it in this regard.
Yet now, it was seeing someone even stronger than itself in this aspect!
How could it not be surprised?
Qi Ping also noticed that his affinity for the power of the forest had increased quite a bit.
But that wasn’t the biggest change.
What truly shocked Qi Ping was his perception of various special forces—powers uniquely belonging to plants, trees, and forests!
His intuition told him that if he was willing to learn, he could grasp these powers and turn them into complete spells!
“Isn’t this just the Druid talent ‘Emulating Nature’?”
Emulating Nature is the core talent of the Cataclysm Druid branch. This talent allows a Druid to learn from the heavens and earth, transforming the forces of natural disasters into powerful spells.
In the cultivation world, the greatest manifestation of this is observing and comprehending terrifying natural disasters like heavenly lightning tribulations and the fierce winds of the upper atmosphere, then turning those disasters into spells.
In terms of potential, the Cataclysm Druid is by no means weak.
It’s just that Qi Ping’s talents were too poor initially. Only Beast King Druid and Forest Druid could help him grow. If his starting point hadn’t been so low, he might have considered including Cataclysm Druid in his options.
“I never thought I’d get a simplified version of ‘Emulating Heaven and Earth’ today. Although it’s far inferior to the Cataclysm Druid talent, it’s still a nice surprise and will provide many ideas for creating spells!” Qi Ping was very happy to gain this ability.
But what delighted him even more was the enormous change brought by his improved comprehension. In just this short time, problems he used to face while understanding formations and spells were suddenly solved.
Aspects that used to baffle him despite constant thought now suddenly made sense!
It was almost unbelievably miraculous!
“Isn’t this improvement way too massive?”
Qi Ping looked somewhat incredulously at the little tricolor deer not far away.
Is the tricolor deer’s comprehension talent really this high?
Or is this particular tricolor deer especially unique?
“Then again, it might also be because my original soul talent foundation is relatively strong. With the boost from Mystic Fairy Spirit Seal + Beast King’s Will, plus my almost daily consumption and training, I’ve provided the best possible soul foundation for the comprehension talent. It’s on this basis that my comprehension has reached such a level.”
Of course, it could be a combination of all these factors working together to produce this effect.
“This basically solves the biggest difficulty I had in learning formations and creating techniques and spells!”
Having solved this problem, Qi Ping was incredibly happy.
With his current comprehension, creating Foundation Establishment-level spells and techniques is definitely not difficult for him. It’s even sufficient for creating techniques for condensing a Golden Core, as long as he has enough time and foundational knowledge of techniques and spells.
Moreover, the speed at which he studies formations and comprehends the true meaning of laws and principles will certainly increase greatly as well.
At this point, Qi Ping can finally settle down and study for a good while on his territory.
“The Tricolor Spirit talent is truly outstanding!”
After a series of tests, Qi Ping couldn’t be more satisfied with this talent’s remarkable effects.
“So from now on, improving the tricolor deer’s tier and bloodline must become a priority. If this talent can keep evolving all the way to the Nine-Colored Deer’s talent [Nine-Colored Sacred Spirit], my comprehension will reach an incredibly terrifying level!”
Because of the Tricolor Spirit talent, Qi Ping immediately elevated the importance of upgrading the tricolor deer’s bloodline to the highest level, worthy of priority cultivation using resources.
When it comes to nurturing animal companions, resource limitations mean there has to be an order of priority.
Key animal companions can be cultivated first to provide the greatest combat support and shared talent enhancement. Those that are less critical can be developed a bit later.
By the time Qi Ping reaches the Golden Core stage, cultivating Foundation Establishment-level animal companions will be extremely easy, so the ones that lag behind won’t remain stagnant forever.
“Conveniently, when I was at the place where I encountered the little stone spirit, I obtained a manual on cultivating spirit beasts after defeating my opponent. I can study how to raise the little spirit fox and the tricolor deer as quickly as possible!”
“But before that, I should first settle the Spirit Vein Essence!”
A powerful spirit vein is the fundamental factor for the development of this territory. Just how far this spirit vein can be nurtured is something Qi Ping will only find out through experimentation.
