Beast Taming: Starting from Transmigration and Starting with a Cheat Code
Chapter 436 Relaxation and Crisis
With the help of the Creation Fruit, Keda and Cangxuan successfully broke through to the fifth rank.
In a certain place in the West Pavilion, spiritual energy surged like the tide, enveloping the body in a pale blue halo. The eyes were slightly closed, and the feathers on the body shimmered with a jade-like luster.
Cangxuan, meanwhile, was perched on the other side, and with each breath, the surrounding spiritual plants grew and withered along with him.
Two distinct yet equally powerful auras intertwined and rose, until at a certain moment, a crisp sound like shattering glass emanated from the two spirit beasts one after the other.
The fifth-order barrier burst open with a roar.
Qin Ming sat cross-legged to the side, feeling the surging feedback from the contract connection, and the spiritual energy pool in his body also increased sharply.
He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, opened his eyes, and his gaze was clear and bright.
Little Fatty lay in the corner, the patterns on his tortoise shell brighter than before his seclusion, but the unique aura of a breakthrough was slow to emerge from him.
This little money-grubber failed to break through as he wished because a considerable portion of the Creation Fruit's energy was diverted from his internal space.
But Qin Ming was not worried; on the contrary, he was happy.
Thanks to the energy feedback from Keda and Cangxuan's breakthroughs, he finally had the right to repay his "debt"!
Bringing Little Fatty back to Earth felt like a high-interest loan, and as Little Fatty grew heavier, Qin Ming often felt hopeless.
And now, the energy surge from the breakthrough washed over his entire body, and he became stronger! He could do it again!
In fact, although I have gained a lot during my time as an exchange student at Canglong Academy, my schedule has been packed, and my spirit is like a bowstring that has been stretched for too long.
Now that the assessment is over and the Creation Fruit has been refined, it's time to rest.
Moreover, as the spirit beast broke through, Qin Ming clearly felt that the contract space within his body loosened again.
The search for a new contracted beast has become urgent.
"Let's go back to Earth."
Qin Ming raised his hand and made a sweeping motion in front of him, his spiritual power condensing into a line and precisely pointing at the spatial imprint belonging to Blue Star in his sea of consciousness.
A gentle spatial fluctuation arose, slowly engulfing the figure of one person and several beasts.
The vision blurred and spun from the glowing spirit stone, finally settling again after a few breaths.
Sunlight.
Warm, natural sunlight streamed in through the windows, falling on the wooden floor and casting patches of golden light.
The air was filled with a faint fragrance of grass and trees, the scent of the old locust tree in the courtyard downstairs.
In the distance came the sounds of traffic and birdsong, familiar, peaceful, and long-lost.
"Black hole, welcome to Earth!" Qin Ming said, opening his arms and speaking in a light voice.
Not only Qin Ming, but the other spirit beasts also echoed his sentiment.
The black hole curiously rotated its tentacles, capturing every trace of this new world.
Upon arriving, Black Hole's excitement quickly overshadowed the slight discomfort caused by the lack of spiritual energy.
Keda circled above his head once, pointed with the tip of its wing at the blue sky outside the window, and Cangxuan cast a silent and gentle gaze at him. Even Xiaopang took out a spirit leaf that he had hidden at some point and generously pushed it in front of the black hole as a congratulatory gift.
The black hole shook its tentacles, and its lethargy vanished.
Qin Ming smiled as he watched this scene.
"Black Hole, you don't have any missions these days, just follow Keda and get familiar with the surroundings."
As fellow flying spirit beasts, Qin Ming believed they would have more in common.
"There's one thing you need to remember—" Qin Ming held up a finger, his tone becoming more serious, "When you go out, you need to shrink yourself. With your current size, I'm afraid you'll attract experts."
"Huh?" The black hole shook its head, quite confused by the instruction.
He lowered his head, spread his butterfly wings, and began to gesture carefully.
From head to wingtip, it was only about the size of two of Qin Ming's hands. Was that big? Compared to the beautiful senior butterfly, he was clearly still a tiny speck.
Is this considered big?
"Gah!" Keda nodded firmly, his expression solemn.
He was a top student who had diligently memorized information on protected animals on Earth.
The largest known butterfly on Earth has a wingspan of 31 centimeters, and the wingspan of a black hole is about to break that record.
If a biologist or photography enthusiast were to capture this image, the consequences could be dire.
"Huh." The black hole tilted its head and nodded as if it understood.
With the reliable Keda looking after him, Qin Ming felt relieved.
He straightened up, clapped his hands, and drew everyone's attention.
"You've all worked hard these past few days. Take some time to relax." His gaze swept over everyone, his tone gentle. "Of course, don't forget about the intelligence networks you've each built. Don't worry about expanding them, just make sure they don't lose contact."
"Gah!" Keda flaps his wings.
"Hmm!" Little Fatty raised his head.
"Aww!" Cang Xuan responded softly.
Everyone responded enthusiastically, and then dispersed to find their most comfortable way to relax.
Keda's figure shrank, turning into a snow-white ball no bigger than the palm of his hand, and flew out of the window along with the black hole.
Outside the window stands a lush old locust tree, where a dark flock of birds—sparrows, magpies, doves, and even two grey falcons—are already perched or resting, waiting for their turn.
When Keda appeared, the flock of birds took flight in unison, emitting melodious and orderly calls, as if welcoming a visiting monarch.
"Keda is getting more and more impressive." Qin Ming leaned against the window, watching Keda's figure gradually disappear into the distance surrounded by flocks of birds, and couldn't help but murmur.
He has recently seen residents discussing in the owners' group more than once how the community environment has improved, there are more kinds of birds, and even the green plants that were troubled by pests have become much more vibrant.
He was very proud of this.
As for Little Fatty traveling by water and Cang Xuan's excellent concealment abilities, neither of them would attract the attention of others.
With the beast taming arrangements complete, it was finally my turn.
Qin Ming stretched lazily, his joints cracking seven or eight times. He drew the curtains, plunging the room into a comfortably dim light.
After several inexplicable all-nighters, followed by secret realms and assessments, Qin Ming's mind was constantly on high alert, though the breakthroughs of his spirit beasts provided some relief.
But no matter how much you catch up on sleep, you're still not feeling well if you're always sleep-deprived!
At least Qin Ming himself felt uneasy.
Now, he threw himself heavily onto the bed, the soft blankets enveloping him like clouds.
He exhaled a long breath, his consciousness like a piece of sugar thrown into warm water, slowly and irreversibly sinking into the depths.
I have no idea what day it is.
Who cares what day it is?
……
A secluded house across the street.
The curtains were drawn tightly shut, and the room was filled with smoke, making it difficult to open one's eyes.
Three men squeezed around a small, temporarily moved square table, with a camera with a telephoto lens set up in front of them, aimed precisely at Qin Ming's window.
The ground was littered with cigarette butts; a rough sweep revealed no fewer than twenty.
There were many takeout boxes piled up on the table, and no one was cleaning them up. The air was filled with the smell of smoke and the tangy aroma of cold, spicy hot pot, so pungent it was almost suffocating.
One of the tall, thin men looked up from the viewfinder, rubbed his bloodshot eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "This guy the organization's supposed to be staking out is a real sleeper! He's been sleeping for a whole day and night!"
They were highly educated individuals who received the assignment early yesterday morning and were completely defenseless.
The three were eager to fight a tough battle, but what happened?
From yesterday until now, the lights across the street haven't been turned on at all. The windows are closed, the curtains are drawn, and once people go inside, they haven't come out.
In a whole day and night, let alone figuring out the pattern, they didn't even get a second glimpse of the target's face.
"How can someone who wastes so much time be on the bounty list? People are really different."
Another burly man stubbed out his cigarette and shoved the butt into the overflowing ashtray, his tone full of resentment and confusion.
They've been doing this for a while now, and they've seen at least dozens of people. They've seen all sorts of people, but this is the first time they've ever seen someone go home, collapse into bed, and sleep for a whole day and night without turning on the lights or eating or drinking.
"Yeah, how does he manage his time? Is he cheating?" The third person squatting by the window couldn't help but mutter.
The burly man who had stubbed out his cigarette was silent for a moment, then slowly said in a knowing tone, as if he had experienced the ups and downs of life, "It's right that we don't understand, otherwise, how could they be on the bounty list?"
The room was silent for two seconds.
"That's true." The other two nodded, suddenly realizing.
Each of the three found a flimsy explanation for themselves and continued to squat down, feeling at ease.
He lit another cigarette, his gaze fixed on the window opposite, patiently waiting for someone who might wake up at any moment.
Even in his drowsy state, Qin Ming still felt uneasy. He quickly concluded that he hadn't had enough and needed to continue.
So he turned over and fell into a deeper sleep.
