"Am I going to travel through ti?"
The sweet voice ringing in his ears forcefully pulled Chen Yuan’s thoughts back. He looked around and found himself still in the bedroom, outside the window was pitch-black darkness.
No, no ti travel.
Chen Yuan pondered, yet discovered the spot in his mind was close at hand, emitting dazzling fluorescence.
At the sa ti, the voice from earlier sounded again:
"Huh? No ti travel?"
Chen Yuan clearly heard the disappointnt in the tone.
He stared blankly, gazing at the spot in his mind for a mont, then seed to understand sothing, tentatively said, "Hello?"
At this mont, the fluorescent light of the spot trembled madly as if frightened, followed by an excited and delighted voice:
"Hey, hello hello!"
"Are you also Donghuang People?"
"Where are you? Why can’t I see you?"
"My na is Jiang Wenning, what’s your na?"
Hearing a string of questions, Chen Yuan’s expression stiffened, quickly interrupting, "Don’t rush, don’t rush, you have too many questions."
With these words, both fell silent.
Chen Yuan rubbed his brow, asked, "Can you see ?"
Jiang Wenning’s reply was particularly quick, "I can’t see, I can only see a gray space, and a glowing spot."
Chen Yuan’s eyes flickered, pondering, "It’s the sa as what I see."
Many thoughts erged in his mind. After so contemplation, he continued to ask, "Can you tell how you ended up in this state?"
This ti, Jiang Wenning, perhaps realizing the wonder in the scene before her, hesitated before answering, "I was ditating."
"ditating?" Chen Yuan was taken aback.
He had just been ditating too.
"Yes, during ditation, I noticed the jade pendant glowing, looked down, and then..." Jiang Wenning trailed off.
"Jade Pendant!" Chen Yuan’s pupils shrank, exclaid in surprise.
"What? Do you also have a jade pendant?" Jiang Wenning asked in confusion.
Without concealing the truth, Chen Yuan described the shape and appearance of his ancestral jade pendant to her, which was t with an excited response:
"Yes, yes, yes, my jade pendant is like that too!"
"My dad says it’s been passed down for several hundred years from our ancestors."
"Wow, could we have been relatives 500 years ago?"
Chen Yuan’s expression paused, murmuring quietly, "It’s quite possible."
Leaving the historical context of the jade pendant aside, it seed to possess remarkable traits, allowing contact with other jade pendant owners during ditation, enabling communication across great distances.
Upon hearing Chen Yuan’s speculation, Jiang Wenning’s eyes lit up, impatiently asking, "I’m in Shanghai, where are you?"
"Uh..."
Chen Yuan hesitated for a mont before answering seriously, "Baokun City."
"Indeed, over a thousand miles away!!! Yet, my dad never ntioned this ability of the jade pendant..."
Chen Yuan speculated, "Maybe it’s due to the world’s changes."
"Makes sense." Jiang Wenning nodded slightly. Her excitent gradually faded, muttering softly, "But we live in an era with phones. Communication across distances has already been achieved, making the jade pendant rather redundant..."
Chen Yuan remained silent for a mont, agreeing with Jiang Wenning’s perspective.
A phone is much more convenient for communication than a jade pendant, right?
But he suddenly rembered sothing, straightened his expression, and inquired, "You ntioned ditation earlier, are you already a Beastmaster?"
Jiang Wenning’s face displayed a smile, her voice cheerful, "Yes, yes, yes, I succeeded in awakening during my first ditation!"
"Impressive." Chen Yuan sincerely complinted.
A level akin to his own, truly worthy of a fellow jade pendant owner.
"And you? Are you a Beastmaster too?"
"Yes."
"Then have you made a contract with a Pet Beast?"
"I have contracted a falcon."
"I contracted Glutinous Rice."
"Glutinous Rice?" Chen Yuan paused.
"Glutinous Rice is my ragdoll cat. It snuck so Spirit Plant my dad left at ho and evolved into a Pet Beast." Jiang Wenning replied.
Chen Yuan’s gaze flickered, asked without hesitation, "What is a Spirit Plant?"
"Are you a Beastmaster yet don’t know Spirit Plant?" Jiang Wenning exclaid in surprise, then explained, "Spirit Plant is the abbreviation for spiritual plants. They usually contain wondrous natural energy that can aid in the growth and evolution of Pet Beasts."
Chen Yuan nodded in understanding.
Jiang Wenning’s voice continued, "Dad also said that during the rainstorm, the level of Spiritual Energy Revival wasn’t high, only a few animals can directly evolve through Spiritual Energy."
"More evolve by consuming Spirit Plants."
"But with the advancent of Spiritual Energy Tides, more ordinary animals can directly evolve into Extraordinary Creatures."
Chen Yuan tily praised, "Very impressive, you know so much."
Jiang Wenning’s face bead, her voice lively, "Hmm-hmm, if you have questions in the future, just ask ."
At this point, Jiang Wenning paused briefly, choosing her words carefully before continuing, "Oh, there’s another very important piece of information."
"Please share." Chen Yuan gathered his thoughts.
"Extraordinary Creatures are categorized into different grades based on their potential and combat power. The higher the grade, the greater their capacity for developnt and strength."
"Therefore, the grade of contracted Pet Beasts should be as high as possible."
"However, it seems that the grades of Extraordinary Creatures aren’t fixed; they can be upgraded through certain paths."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but recall the [Advancent Path] on the data panel, his heart trembled.
"Ah, actually I’m not very familiar with these things yet." Jiang Wenning coughed lightly, continued, "I’ll tell you more after I learn at the Beast Taming Academy tomorrow."
"Beast Taming Academy?"
"Yes, because I successfully awakened during my first ditation, I was invited to join the Beast Taming Academy for further studies on Beast Taming Knowledge."
At this point, Jiang Wenning glanced at her watch, realizing it was close to midnight, quickly said, "Enough talk, I need to hurry and sleep, have to get up early for a flight tomorrow."
"By the way, you haven’t told your na yet!!!"
Chen Yuan’s mouth twitched, surprised that Jiang Wenning hadn’t forgotten this.
Initially reluctant to reveal his real na, he reconsidered as the girl nad Jiang Wenning spoke sincerely and unhesitatingly shared Beast Taming Knowledge with him.
"My na is Chen Yuan, like the saying ’Accumulated water becos a deep pool.’" He said.
"Alright, Chen Yuan, goodnight then."
Her voice remained sweet and light, though Jiang Wenning suddenly appeared puzzled, "By the way, do you know how to exit this state?"
Chen Yuan speculated, "Since it was entered during ditation, then stop ditating, and don’t focus Spiritual Power here."
With these words, the spot in front of him gradually dimd until it disappeared.
The gray space also slowly vanished, as if it had never appeared.
Chen Yuan lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling, touching the cold jade pendant on his chest, gradually falling asleep.
Night deepened.
