Spirit Plant Masters Sweep Across the Beast Taming Interstellar Space

Chapter 91 Last-Minute Preparation [Part Two]

Ge Bai could clearly sense that the system remained silent for a long time after he finished speaking.

It's not the kind of silence where you finish speaking and then ignore people, but the kind of silence where you're suddenly silenced because you haven't finished speaking.

"Okay, okay, just kidding."

Ge Bai quickly added, "Heaven and earth bear witness, I just can't control my mouth right now, I really want to say something sarcastic."

The Shennong 3.7 system circulated its energy wildly to calm itself down. It had chosen its own host, so it couldn't hold a grudge. It wouldn't hold a grudge.

Seeing that Ge Bai had given them a way out, the system went along with it.

In all honesty, he didn't want to kill the host out of boredom.

The Shennong system in version 2.7 did not have the ability to unbind from the host.

If, by any chance, he misjudged the situation and the host couldn't demonstrate the ability to grow rapidly, he couldn't possibly spend decades with the host.

They, he and they, don't have much time left.

As soon as the upgrade was implemented, he immediately stopped mentioning the matter of annihilation.

If you can break up peacefully, who wants to escalate it into a life-or-death struggle?

"The coordinates of the remaining secret realm will be obtained after the host completes the mission."

Knowing what Ge Bai wanted to ask, the system thoughtfully provided an explanation.

"So what changes have you noticed after this upgrade?"

Ge Bai finally remembered to ask about the important matter. Having crossed a major stage, he was looking forward to the system bringing him some new surprises.

"The updated version includes two new functional modules: Spirit Plant Skill Research and Spirit Plant Upgrade Simulation."

I made a profit!

The Shennong 3.7 system simply and clearly presented two terms, but Ge Bai's eyes lit up as soon as he heard them.

Who said her system was useless?

She declared that the Shennong 3.7 system was the most powerful system in the entire Interstellar Alliance!

Tell me more!

After the upgrade, the logic of the Shennong system is not complicated. Generally speaking, as long as Ge Bai can complete the tasks issued by the system, he can obtain a certain number of points.

Using points, you can request the system to calculate the spirit plant's skills from scratch, or simulate the spirit plant's upgrade path.

The former requires 1 point at a time, while the latter requires 5 points at a time.

"System, how many points do I have right now?"

"Currently, the host has 10 points, which is the sum of the points obtained from the previous two missions."

How many points will I get after completing the next task?

"7 points."

"Could you post more tasks?"

Without the pressure of elimination and with the reward of points, Ge Bai's desire to complete the mission became even stronger.

The Shennong system remained silent for a while before issuing a semi-new task.

"Daily Task 1: [Pet Battle] Any pet battles against a pet with higher spirit power than yours. If you win, you will receive 1 point."

"Daily Task Two: [Exterminate the Beast] (Task details will be displayed after the host encounters a beast)"

How stingy! Ge Bai curled his lip in disdain, but something is better than nothing.

After pondering the Shennong 3.7 system for a while, Ge Bai still opened the [Spirit Plant Skill Research] section page with great interest and began to study it carefully.

In the Skills Research and Development section, the only available candidates are Ooyagi, Chiyo, and Momo.

I wonder if, once the Shennong System is upgraded again, Ge Bai will be able to help the spirit plants that are not under her contract to research new skills.

Without hesitation, I clicked on Chiyo.

The page immediately changed, displaying all of Chiyo Haruka Ran's basic attributes, skill details, and skill mastery status.

Subsequently, a prompt box appeared at the bottom of the page.

[Do you want to research the most suitable skill for Chiyo Haru Lancelot at this stage, based on her existing skills? Requires 1 point.]

Instead of directly choosing "yes," Ge Bai used the spiritual communication system to ask another question.

"Besides researching skills based on Chiyo Haru's existing skills, what other research methods are there?"

The system remained silent, and the answer was displayed directly in the page's display box.

[By scanning spirit plants or spirit beasts using the Shennong 3.7 system, the system will automatically record the scanned skills, forming a skill library.]

[You can select one or more skills from the skill library that you want your research subject to learn, and begin your research based on those skills.]

[There is a possibility of research failure. The research points cost for this research path are related to basic skills, and the points spent are non-refundable.]

This is pretty good too. It seems I'll have to see powerful pets more often in the future, especially powerful spiritual plants!

Ge Bai made up his mind.

"Return to the previous screen and agree to spend 1 point."

This time, Ge Bai didn't hesitate and directly asked the system to research Chiyo's new skills.

[Chiyo Haruka, New Skill: Spatial Binding (Advanced Skill), Skill Description: Uses spatial spiritual power to bind and restrict the target, fixing them in place, preventing them from moving or attacking.]

That's it!

Ge Bai left the Spirit Plant Skill Research section, opened the Spirit Plant Cultivation Chart, and flipped to the page with Chiyo. Sure enough, it had been updated.

【Species: Cymbidium goeringii (dominant species)】

[Age: Age of the spiritual plant being 2, age of the spiritual consciousness at birth 2]

[Spiritual Power: Mortal Spirit Realm Level 8 (784.39/800)]

[Initial Attribute: Spatial]

[Skill: Spatial Teleportation - Proficient (191/200)]

[Skills: Chiyoken - Proficient (187/200); Pseudo-Chiyoken - Proficient (168/200)]

[Skill: Spatial Binding - Beginner (0/100)]

Ge Bai shook his head with some regret, thinking that the skills developed by the system would be easy to learn and master.

Unexpectedly, just like when Da Liu and Xiao Tao first formed their contract, Ge Bai could only see that they could master these skills, but when and how they would master them had to be explored together by the spirit plant master and the contracted spirit plant.

That's understandable, since the system's module is called "Skills Research and Development," not "Skills Teaching."

Having a way is better than doing nothing at all.

Kabai was good at comforting himself, and he quickly adjusted his mindset, cheerfully inviting Chiyo over.

Seeing Ge Bai waving at her with a smile, Chiyo was still a little reluctant. She felt that Ge Bai was nothing serious, just taking up her time.

Even though she was busy practicing her skills, she also noticed that her own beast tamer had been leaning there in a daze for a long time.

Sensing Chiyo's reluctance, Gobai sighed helplessly, "Come on, good news! I'll teach you a new skill!"

"Huh?"

A new skill? Upon hearing this, Chiyo perked up.

She has only had two skills since birth. Some time ago, under the guidance of Kaku, Chiyoken differentiated into Chiyoken and Pseudo-Chiyoken, but she still did not break away from the category of having only one skill.

Seeing that Ooyuki had four skills, Chiyo was truly envious, even though she didn't say it.

"Bye-bye! What new skill? You're not kidding me, are you?"

In just two steps, Chiyo teleported directly to Ge Bai's face, forcing Ge Bai to reach out and pull her away.

"I'm not lying to you, listen carefully."

After telling Chiyo the results of the system's intelligent research in detail, Ge Bai confidently assured her.

"Trust me, you can definitely master this skill; you just need to understand it well and try it more."

Chiyo was still a little hesitant. This was her first time trying to learn a new skill, and she really didn't know where to start.

Kabai could understand Chiyo's reluctance, after all, Ooyagi had gone through the same thing.

She spoke gently and calmly, telling Chiyo her thoughts on the skill.

"I think you can find inspiration for using spatial teleportation, Chiyo, in dealing with this spatial constraint."

"Spatial teleportation is actually a temporary control of the other party, opening a spatial channel, and using spatial power to move the other party to another spatial coordinate."

"The key to spatial binding lies in using spatial power to bind the opponent."

Chiyo seemed to understand, but she still honestly said, "Bai Bai, when I teleported, I didn't think about binding or controlling the other person. I just controlled the landing point, and it happened naturally."

Gobai wasn't in a hurry and took further steps to guide Chiyo.

"I'm not talking about you teleporting yourself or Da Liu. Such teleportation wouldn't be resisted by the other party, so you wouldn't feel it."

"Think carefully about that time you used spatial teleportation on the bloodthirsty hyena."

At this point, Chiyo finally began to understand.

Indeed, she could still clearly remember that the spatial teleportation had been met with a frenzied counterattack from the bloodthirsty hyenas, which had drained a huge amount of her spiritual power.

Even though the point of spatial teleportation was very close, she still had to exert all her strength to succeed, and a lot of her energy was spent using spatial power to suppress the bloodthirsty hyenas that were retaliating.

Thinking it over, Chiyo mobilized her spiritual power and used it on a piece of equipment in the training room.

Within two seconds, she stopped channeling her spiritual energy and pouted as she complained to Ge Bai.

"Bye, I need a sparring partner. Still life won't do; I have no feel for it at all."

Ge Bai also realized what was happening, frowned and pondered for a moment, then took out his mobile device and ordered a litter of pet golden mice online.

She specifically chose a seller in the same city and added a markup, requesting delivery within half an hour.

This litter of golden hamsters will first help Chiyo practice spatial restraint, and then help Ouyagi practice his tolerance to rodents.

This mouse has two uses in one, it's a great buy!

Chiyo has done almost everything she can; she's just waiting for her sparring partner to arrive.

Ge Bai first comforted Chiyo with a few words, telling her not to worry, and then had Chiyo take him into the spiritual energy room. He glanced at Da Liu and, seeing that everything was normal, carried Xiao Tao to the living room on the first floor.

Since we've set our sights on the top spot in the special admissions for Beijing-Hong Kong No.1 High School, we must do everything we can to make thorough preparations.

"Peach?"

Xiao Tao slept for most of the day in the spiritual space, and now that she has just come out, she is not sleepy.

Ge Bai habitually handed her a bottle of nutrient solution, which she happily drank while holding it.

Opening the Spirit Plant Cultivation Chart, I hadn't looked at Xiao Tao's page in a long time, and at first glance, I found that she had made considerable progress.

【Type: Golden Peach Demon Tree (Leader of Bloodline)】

[Spiritual Power: Level 4, Tier 0 (171.99/400)]

[Initial Attribute: Life]

【Skill: Spirit Peach - Ultimate Technique (35/1000)】

【Skill: Peach Blossom Fragrance - Ultimate Technique (375/1000)】

【Skill: Spirit Peach Stealing - Beginner (45/100)】

[Skill: Golden Peach - Beginner (0/100)]

Ge Bai strongly suspected that Xiao Tao's level four spiritual power was mostly built up by nutrient solution.

Despite how hard Oyagi and Chiyo train, when it comes to nutrient fluid consumption, the two of them combined don't even compare to Momo.

Not only Ge Bai, but Da Liu and Chiyo have also gotten into the habit of slipping a bottle of nutrient solution into Xiao Tao's hand whenever they feel like it.

It seems that the skill proficiency is actually quite good, with both the Spirit Peach and the Enchanting Peach Fragrance skills reaching the ultimate stage.

However, this doesn't stand up to scrutiny. After all, the Peach Fragrance is constantly increasing proficiency, while the Spirit Returning Peach, once condensed, can increase proficiency by 5 points. This increase is incredibly rapid.

Ge Bai still doesn't dare tell Chiyo the exact progress of Momo's skill proficiency, for fear that Chiyo, who has to practice a skill five or six times to gain one proficiency level, will feel resentful.

Today I have only one goal: to see the Golden Peach! Who knows, it might be my trump card in the special recruitment battle.

"Xiao Tao, have you been tired lately? How are you feeling?"

Every time Ge Bai sees Xiao Tao, he unconsciously speaks softly and gently.

Carrying Xiao Tao, Ge Bai walked to the sofa area and sat down. He propped himself up on his elbows and held her in front of him, at eye level.

Xiao Tao leaned against Ge Bai's hand, feeling extremely comfortable.

"I'm fine, Bai Bai, what's wrong?"

"How about we have a little training session today?"

To be honest, Xiao Tao has always been very obedient. Although she doesn't particularly love training, she usually agrees to whatever Ge Bai asks.

"Great! Little Peach can now conjure two kinds of fruit, and it can also emit a super, super rich peach fragrance! Bye-bye, what are we practicing today?"

Xiao Tao may be young, but she's not stupid; she's very clear about her own skills.

Ge Bai shook his head, his smile becoming even gentler.

"No, how about we create a new kind of fruit today?"

Xiao Tao was clearly taken aback when she heard about the new fruit.

"Little Peach can actually condense a new kind of fruit that's different from the Spirit Return Peach and the Spirit Stealing Peach, right?"

Ge Bai looked at Xiao Tao with great certainty.

Golden Peach is a skill that was displayed in the system when Ge Bai and Xiao Tao signed the contract. It can almost be said to be Xiao Tao's original initial skill.

Xiao Tao blinked, frowned, and thought hard. Suddenly, she called out softly.

"Ah! I remember now! Yes, I do!"

Ge Bai's eyes lit up. He remained silent, only smiling and encouragingly looking at Xiao Tao.

"Bye, this fruit consumes a lot of nutrients. I need nutrient solution, lots and lots of nutrient solution."

Xiao Tao said to Ge Bai in a very serious tone.

"good!"

Without saying a word, Ge Bai carried Xiao Tao back to the basement.

When she purchased spiritual resources, she also bought a large batch of nutrient solution, which was stored in a storage room in the basement. She hadn't paid any attention to it before.

Chiyo comes to restock regularly, and Ooyagi and Momo always ask Chiyo for their supplies.

Opening the door to the nutrient solution storage room, Ge Bai took out a box of nutrient solution for juvenile spirit plants and a box of nutrient solution for life-type spirit energy, opened one bottle of each, and handed them to Xiao Tao.

"Which one do you want?"

Xiao Tao usually loves to drink the nutrient solution of juvenile spiritual plants, but this time, just as Ge Bai predicted, she pointed to the life-type spiritual energy nutrient solution with her tender green leaves.

"this!"

Sure enough, when it comes to replenishing depleted spiritual energy, specialized spiritual energy nutrient solution is the most reliable option. Tao'er usually craves the taste of nutrient solution for young spiritual plants.

"Is one box enough?" Ge Bai asked.

Xiao Tao shook her head and said crisply, "Three in this box!"

Looking around, Ge Bai didn't waste any words. He found a transparent glass tank in the corner of the storage room, which looked like a fish tank, and poured all five boxes of life-type spiritual energy nutrient solution in the storage room into it.

"Come on, Xiao Tao, it's your turn."
