Chapter 104: Forest Wolf Tome, Level 3, Mind's Eye!
Chapter 104: Forest Wolf Tome, Level 3, Mind's Eye!
The Forest Wolf Tome was the first tome to awaken and illuminate in the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits, and it is the only tome that Su Ping has been diligently cultivating.
Su Ping had already experienced the effects of the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits, and without mentioning anything else, the connection-sharing ability of the Forest Wolf Tome alone, which had reached Level 2, was already considered heaven-defying.
And now, after a month of accumulation, the Forest Wolf Tome has finally reached the limit of full experience value again.
Without hesitation, Su Ping acted immediately upon the feedback from the tome:
"Yes!"
Instantly, a light shone from the Forest Wolf Tome, dazzling and even more brilliant than the last time it was upgraded.
At the same time, the card, which was previously green as the base color, became a deeper shade at this moment.
A touch of indigo and sky blue blended together, creating a hue that adorned the Forest Wolf Tome card.
Then, as if washing away all impurities, this hint of blue spread out, and soon, the Forest Wolf Tome, originally at Level 2, transformed from green to this new color.
Subsequently, a feedback of the origin appeared in Su Ping's mind from the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits, after the Forest Wolf Tome underwent a complete transformation into blue.
As expected, the reward for this upgrade of the Forest Wolf Tome was no longer an enhancement to his talent or any other ability, just like the last time it reached Level 2.
Instead, it was a special origin ability that only affected the Forest Wolf group.
If one had to describe it, it could be considered a special talent, but it was a unique derived talent born from the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits.
The effects of the previous connection-sharing ability need not be elaborated further.
Without going into details, during this month of training, one of Su Ping's Forest Wolves even advanced its skill to the Master Level, demonstrating the heaven-defying effects and capabilities of connection-sharing.
Su Ping believed that the feedback from the tome's upgrade to Level 3 would not disappoint.
The next moment, an ability named Mind's Eye appeared in Su Ping's mind.
"Mind's Eye (Forest Wolf): A specific ability derived from the Book of Ten Thousand Spirits, allowing Forest Wolves with sufficient intimacy to share their vision, as well as the option to share with other Forest Wolves. The user can also issue commands to connected Forest Wolves through the Mind's Eye during connection-sharing!"
"Note 1: If Forest Wolves share their vision abruptly, it may lead to discomfort and affect their combat effectiveness."
"Note 2: At the current realm, a maximum of 20 Forest Wolves can be connected simultaneously."
This ability? Su Ping's heart stirred.
On the surface, this ability seemed less heaven-defying than the previous connection-sharing, but his heart was filled with unimaginable joy.
Initially, when he first encountered the Zhang Family Brothers in the training grounds of Yun Tian and engaged in beastmaster battles with them, he had an idea.
Others might control a single or a few beasts in battle, but with the Beast Master's Haven talent, he could bring along a large number of beasts and naturally command a massive beast army in combat.
However, this was just an idea.
After all, history has shown that not all beastmasters who acquired the Beast Master's Haven talent skill could command a beast army in battle. Wolf and insect beasts were the easiest to control because wolf packs had wolf kings, and insect swarms had queen insects.
In theory, controlling just one could allow for the command of a beast army under certain circumstances.
But theory was theory, and reality was reality.
In practice, such a situation was challenging to achieve unless it was just minor skirmishes.
The primary reason for this was the lack of coordination between the beastmaster and the beast army.
The transmission of commands also had a time limit.
However, it seemed that this problem could now be resolved? Su Ping's current realm was at the Ordinary Rank Ten, and he could directly connect with twenty Forest Wolves, just like when he shared a connection with them.
In other words, he could now 'micro-manage' twenty connected Forest Wolves during battles and training!
What did this mean?
It was simple; it was like having the god-like perspective in an RTS (Real-Time Strategy) game while facing the enemy's 3D first-person view.
The difference between the two was evident, and Su Ping didn't need to elaborate further.
Connection-sharing was an advanced skill for cultivating Forest Wolves, and Mind's Eye was an even more advanced skill for cultivating the group combat abilities of Forest Wolves.
Almost in the instant his mind moved, Su Ping felt that in his mental image, twenty small perspectives appeared.
These twenty small perspectives were the twenty Forest Wolves sharing their spiritual connection!
He even felt that he could convey his commands to any of these twenty Forest Wolves.
After the courtyard.
In front of the forest, Old Sha stood before the ten Forest Wolves, and the Wolf King's majesty made eight of them tremble with fear, staring at Old Sha. Only the other two, who had broken through to the Elite Rank and also possessed the Wolf King's Majestic skill, were Overlord Rank Forest Wolves, and they could barely resist.
But they only resisted slightly.
Old Sha looked at the ten obedient Forest Wolves, and the two small saplings' antlers swayed slightly, obviously very satisfied.
However, at this moment, a voice suddenly echoed in Old Sha's heart:
"Old Sha, go and get some tree fruit for these Forest Wolves. Each of the eight Elite Rank Forest Wolves should carry five, and each of the two Overlord Rank Forest Wolves should carry ten!"
"Howl?!"
Old Sha blinked, and a hint of confusion flashed in his emerald green pupils.
Was it because he hadn't gotten enough rest these past few days due to his young master's training?
Why did he seem to hear his young master's voice and commands? Moreover, these commands made him feel so disgusted! What's with this math stuff, so annoying!
He must have misheard!
No mistake!
Old Sha shook his head and refocused his gaze on the little guys that his young master was going to cultivate.
However, just as he did so, that voice echoed again:
"Hurry up and get the tree fruit, or you'll have to redistribute the tree fruit to all the Forest Wolves later!"
Old Sha shuddered, and amidst the surprised gazes of the surrounding Forest Wolves, he quickly ran to the nearby hut and picked up a large wooden barrel of tree fruit.
How strange, how did his young master do it?
Old Sha didn't know how, but he knew that if he didn't follow the instructions, he might have to face those nightmare-like combination problems again.
Watching Old Sha's actions through the mental perspective, Su Ping nodded in satisfaction.
This ability was indeed extraordinary!
Su Ping then tried something else; he placed the training perspective of a Forest Wolf onto Old Sha's perspective.
And indeed, Old Sha's actions became slightly sluggish.
But he adapted quickly.
This feeling was like multitasking, like playing chess while working, as if two additional perspectives had appeared in his mind. One was his own field of view, and the other was like watching the other Forest Wolves' perspectives on a screen.
If something happened on the other side while sharing this mental perspective, the connected Forest Wolves would also be able to discover it immediately.
However, after trying it briefly, Su Ping didn't continue.
Instead, he quickly summarized some key points about this mental perspective ability in his mind.
The most important and versatile ability was to have a more thorough understanding of the connected Forest Wolves, and even to try using them as a command group for group combat.
Twenty Forest Wolves for micro-management.
Commands could be issued from a distance through this ability,
However, sharing the mental perspectives of other Forest Wolves with the Forest Wolves shouldn't be done casually.
It was very uncomfortable for the Forest Wolves.
Perhaps, for human Beastmasters, it was like watching a surveillance screen, and even for them, observing the other perspectives in their minds was challenging. After all, the Forest Wolves' intelligence was not on par with humans.
Only Old Sha could slightly adapt to sharing the perspectives of several Forest Wolves. The rest of the Forest Wolves, even while running, would sometimes lose focus and crash into tree stumps.
If they couldn't adapt to this ability in combat, it would be suicidal.
However, as the Forest Wolves were cultivated and their levels increased in the future, it should become much easier.
With this thought, Su Ping exhaled deeply, relaxed his mental focus, and opened his eyes.
Then, a sense of fatigue he had never experienced before washed over him, making Su Ping realize that even he couldn't use this mental perspective ability casually.
...
Two or three days passed quickly.
Su Anyong had been gone for several days.
And today was the day Su Anyong was leaving.
There wasn't much sentimentality; neither father nor son was sentimental, and if Su Ping had to describe his mood, he felt a bit resentful.
Yes, the old man had left without leaving behind the 'ShadowBlade'.
That mechanical core smart car, worth over two hundred million on the market, was something Su Ping had wanted to get his hands on.
Su Ping couldn't help but feel a little regret.
After obtaining it, he could sell it and add some more to buy that smart extraction machine.
Then, he could continue his research on the unfinished Wolf Tobacco.
Unfortunately, this old guy was more tight-fisted than his stingy wife. Not only did he not let Su Ping play around with it, but he kept it locked away in the Beast Mastery Space, not even giving Su Ping a chance to touch it.
'Damn, I'll make something even cooler, flashier, and more awesome in the future, and make this old guy drool!'
However, after glancing at the small wooden box in the Beast Mastery Space, Su Ping let out a sigh.
Oh well, oh well.
Seeing the value of this item, Su Ping decided to forgive the old man.
Previously, he had heard Qin Xiaoxue mention the two primary core materials required for a wooden evolution into a Crowned Tree Wolf.
One was Natural Essence, and the other was a Thorned Crown.
He didn't know what the latter was, but the former was undoubtedly an Imperial Resource.
However, Su Ping had never imagined that within less than a month, he would obtain this Natural Essence, and it was through his father's hands.
This was the treasure Su An Yong originally wanted to bring back to prolong Old Sha's life.
But now that Old Sha had completed his evolution, he no longer needed it, so Su An Yong gave it to Su Ping.
This undoubtedly made Su Ping even more curious about the old man's identity.
He had never doubted that his father had secrets and power.
After all, for his grandfather to be a Monarch Rank Beastmaster in that era, he would have to be a useless and incompetent man.
But while Su An Yong was eccentric and unreliable, Su Ping had never seen him being mistreated or showing weakness, nor had he seen him indulging in food and entertainment every day.
Su Ping simply ignored him after that.
During these two to three days, Su Ping had also shared some of his ideas for the future development of Toxinwood Heart with Su An Yong.
Expand the area! Diversify the industry! Increase the breeding of other pets, especially plant-type and aquatic pets!
Su An Yong didn't show much interest, repeatedly saying:
'Your dad supports whatever you do! But there's no money!'
As for selling the hover car? Is that what you're selling, kid? That's Su An Yong's life!
Su Ping decided not to bother with him anymore.
During this time, he familiarized himself with the use of Mind's Eye to the greatest extent, making further plans for the breeding of the ten Forest Wolves and confirming the development scope for the coming days.
Additionally, two notable events occurred during these two days.
First, the neighboring Cloud Heaven Resort sent someone else, not the previous manager Qian or Dong Muyun, to propose developing the unknown Mystic Realm together with Su Ping.
However, Su Ping neither refused nor agreed.
Recently, Old Sha had been able to sense that the ripples in the Spirit Stream Bank were becoming more frequent, indicating that the portal to the Mystic Realm was about to appear.
It would be better to wait and see what the Mystic Realm was like before making a decision.
Second, the present moment.
After Su Ping advanced to Ordinary Rank Ten, Xiao Qing's cultivation also reached Ordinary Rank Nine.
After so many days, Xiao Qing, as the primary beneficiary of the 'Link Share' ability,
With the Sunlight Siphon skill breaking through to the Master Level, the little guy's cultivation also rose!
Reaching Ordinary Rank Ten! Once again on par with Su Ping!
Su Ping planned to wait a few more days for Xiao Qing's cultivation to stabilize before giving her the Elite-tier poison resource, Devil Willow Leaf, hoping to help her break through the Elite Rank!
Once the pet beast advanced, it might also drive Su Ping to break through the threshold of the Elite Rank.
After all, with the Creation Stone and the previous resources, Su Ping could feel his psychic energy constantly improving,
Reaching an exciting threshold.
During these two days, the resources Su Ping had instructed Zhang Lie to prepare were finally delivered.
