Live Strong in the Wilderness

Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Feeding the Illusionary Flower Beast

Xu Yi and Lu Ke didn’t mind, as the food was already heated up.

Moreover, Xu Yi had just set up the tent outside, so they could rest or train after eating.

After finishing these tasks, Xu Yi and Lu Ke went to train.

Over an hour later, Lu Yao was the first to exit the illusion.

After all, she was at the peak of level 5, and the situation was completely different from when Xu Yi and Lu Ke first encountered it.

So, Lu Yao immediately woke up.

She touched her flushed cheeks and then glanced at Xu Yi.

She stared for a few minutes, then decisively shook her head and quickly glanced at Lu Ke.

After that, she walked over to the table.

The pot was still steaming, letting her know that Lu Ke had heated up food for her and Su Yan.

So, Lu Yao sat down, waiting for Su Yan to wake up.

Normally, she should be waking up soon too.

Sure enough, in less than 10 minutes, Su Yan woke up.

She first looked around in confusion, then bit her lip and glared at Xu Yi.

Lu Yao could tell that, in Su Yan’s illusion, she must have been ’bullied’ by Xu Yi.

Then, Su Yan touched her cheek with her hand before finally walking over to Lu Yao.

The two of them did not communicate, nor did they have the intention to.

The secrets from within the illusion came from their inner selves, how could they possibly bring them up in conversation?

However, they both felt Xu Yi did it on purpose, letting them fall into an illusion once.

But do they blame Xu Yi?

Of course not, the memory was still beautiful, so they naturally wouldn’t blame Xu Yi.

Their only dissatisfaction was that the illusion was just that—an illusion, unable to become reality.

After silently finishing their food, they left the tent.

Once outside, the two felt a bit more comfortable.

Inside the tent, the atmosphere always seemed too strange.

"Su Yan, don’t wander too far; my energy can’t cover that far."

Xu Yi’s voice suddenly floated out, making Su Yan shiver involuntarily, her face reddening further.

She collected her thoughts and silently returned to the tent.

Actually, she wanted to set up her own tent.

That way, it would be much more convenient.

However, she had forgotten about Xu Yi’s spiritual power issue.

Xu Yi’s spiritual power could perceive many things.

But Lu Yao had no such concerns.

So, Lu Yao took out her own tent. Having her own tent was more comfortable. For herself, as well as for others.

Before, they didn’t have these conditions. But now it’s different; they have plenty of resources, with single tents equipped for two people. Therefore, there was no need to squeeze together like before.

Lu Yao quickly entered a training state, but Su Yan did not.

She felt like Xu Yi was constantly watching her.

So, she felt somewhat conflicted.

Actually, Xu Yi wasn’t perceiving Su Yan; he merely used his spiritual power to construct a barrier around Su Yan, slowing the inflow of spiritual energy.

After all, Xu Yi thought that using spiritual power to perceive others, especially if it involved privacy, would be very...

If he perceived too much, he might become a pervert, wouldn’t he?

Therefore, it’s better not to start this kind of thing.

Pandora’s box, better left unopened.

Being a pervert wasn’t the issue; rather, it was terrifying if a pervert couldn’t be stopped.

At least, that’s how Xu Yi saw it.

So, when it came to more private matters, he decisively avoided them.

Otherwise, with his current abilities, anyone changing clothes in front of him might as well be undressing in front of him. But Xu Yi didn’t do that. Even though he had the capability.

However, Su Yan didn’t quite see it that way.

So, she didn’t even want to go to the bathroom and used telekinesis instead.

This method was still very discreet; unless Xu Yi paid special attention, he probably wouldn’t notice.

Su Yan believed that Xu Yi wasn’t a pervert.

In this, Su Yan had confidence.

Time swiftly passed through the night.

In the morning, Lu Ke got up early to make breakfast.

After breakfast, Lu Ke planned to go hunting Fierce Beasts.

The beasts she’d hunt, naturally, were level 5 peak Fierce Beasts. Level 6, she didn’t stand a chance against.

Lu Yao, also at level 5 peak, went with her.

So, only Xu Yi and Su Yan remained.

Su Yan felt the air becoming a bit more ambiguous.

Of course, this was just her wishful thinking.

For Xu Yi, nothing had changed.

"Here are three Telekinesis Fruits, you should eat them." Xu Yi handed three Telekinesis Fruits to Su Yan, new ones would soon mature.

Xu Yi hoped that after eating these three Telekinesis Fruits, Su Yan could breakthrough to level 5 peak.

Su Yan was delighted, immediately accepting the Telekinesis Fruits.

These fruits not only boosted her telekinesis but also tasted exceptionally good.

After eating the Strawberry Telekinesis Fruits, Su Yan immersed herself in training.

Compared to last night, she was much more focused now.

Xu Yi returned to his tent and cast an active skill on the snail.

Then, Xu Yi began to train.

However, Xu Yi’s current training cycle was set to an hour, after which he would exit his training state and continue using the Taming Skills on the snail.

Though the snail was still in its juvenile stage, it could continuously grow as long as it kept feeding.

Xu Yi had discovered that the snail could indeed absorb the energy from Brain Crystals.

Moreover, when its tendrils penetrated the Brain Crystal, the telekinesis within did not dissipate but was gradually absorbed by the snail.

Before leaving, Xu Yi had Lu Ke record the time; currently, it took most of 38 hours for the snail to absorb one Brain Crystal.

This efficiency was exceedingly fast.

Moreover, you could clearly feel its change.

Its floral body was blooming.

That’s why Xu Yi had Lu Ke go hunt level 5 Fierce Beasts.

The snail never got full or overstuffed; it could continuously ’feed,’ absorbing the life and body of Fierce Beasts.

By constantly feeding, it could continuously grow.

Wild Illusionary Flower Beasts attract Fierce Beasts with their aroma to gain nourishment.

But the snail is different—it can be hand-fed.

In the human world, feeding is aimed at increasing production.

If the snail’s feeding succeeds, it would be a massive benefit for Xu Yi’s team.

Even though Xu Yi had not asked the Spirit God and did not know the ultimate level where the Illusionary Flower Beast could enhance telekinesis and spiritual power, Xu Yi believed it would be effective at least up to level 20.

Moreover, the higher the target level it absorbs, the faster it should grow, and the better the effect should be.

Currently, Lu Ke and her team can only secure level 5 peak Fierce Beasts, but once Su Yan breaks through, Xu Yi can pursue level 6 Fierce Beasts. Eventually, he can target level 7 and level 8 beasts for the snail to absorb.

Hence, in Xu Yi’s eyes, the snail is a strategic resource.

If the Spirit Race wanted to trade, Xu Yi would flatly refuse.

Still, Xu Yi believed the Spirit Race might choose to tame their own.

A creature tamed personally can only be loyal to oneself.
