Squeak, squeak...
Xu Lu originally thought that the first animals to arrive would be agile animals or flying birds.
But to his surprise, the first thing to appear beside him was a mountain rat.
At this moment, the little mountain mouse stood up on its own and bowed repeatedly to Xu Lu, the 'mountain lord' who was giving orders.
Seeing this, Xu Lu smiled and muttered to himself:
"That's interesting. No wonder it ranks first among the twelve zodiac animals. It's definitely something special."
This little thing was probably the closest to me, so it was the first to arrive, but luck also plays a part!
Thinking of this, Xu Lu felt he should give the first little mountain mouse that came over a bit of good fortune.
Of course, it's also thanks to the fact that these little mountain rats are much more attractive than the rats that scurry around in the garbage dumps of the city.
Otherwise, our CEO Xu wouldn't have such thoughts.
A moment later, a second jungle creature appeared in front of Xu Lu.
Yes, it was a hawk.
This bird is considered a master of the skies, and it flies very fast, but it just happens to be within a few miles of the area.
Otherwise, it wouldn't receive Xu Lu's summons.
Eagles and mountain rats should have been mortal enemies, well, that's for the little mountain rat, of course.
However, even though the eagle saw the little mountain mouse in front of Xu Lu, it overcame its instincts and did not pounce on it to kill it on the spot.
Clearly, the eagle dared not act recklessly because of the presence of the mountain lord.
Subsequently, more and more kinds of animals appeared near Xu Lu.
There were squirrels leaping down from the trees, foxes and deer running at top speed, and birds flying over as well.
Before long, the open space in front of Xu Lu was filled with living creatures.
Seeing that it was almost done, Xu Lu pointed to the little mountain mouse that had arrived first.
This little creature cleverly stood out from the other animals.
Xu Lu nodded upon seeing this, and with another tap of his finger, the skill "Mythical Leap" under "Beast Taming Mastery" was activated.
The next moment, a flash of golden light appeared on the little mountain mouse's body, and a dramatic change began.
Unlike fish that grow to enormous sizes, the first change in the color of this small mountain mouse is its fur. Its originally grayish fur gradually turns into a color that flashes with gold.
His eyes, which had previously only shown a slight liveliness, suddenly gleamed with a sharp light.
This shows that this little thing definitely possesses a high level of intelligence.
Time passed little by little
The physical changes had stopped, but the little mountain mouse, now with golden fur that gave it a somewhat noble appearance, remained squatting there motionless.
After a few minutes, the little golden mountain mouse finally opened its eyes and squeaked...
It let out a cry, and then darted away in an instant.
Xu Lu stared in astonishment at the golden lightning bolt in the jungle.
Even with his keen eyesight, he couldn't keep up with the speed of this little mountain mouse after its 'mythical leap,' and could only see a golden line flashing in the jungle.
After a few breaths, the golden thread came closer and stopped in front of Xu Lu again.
Xu Lu looked closely and found that the little thing was bowing and scraping while standing upright again.
This little mountain mouse, which had already developed a considerable level of intelligence, knew that its good fortune all came from the great mountain before it.
So they are expressing their gratitude in this way.
"Alright, alright, go ahead. Remember, don't do anything evil, or I'll take away all your opportunities!"
Xu Lu waved his hand and gave the little mountain mouse another word of advice before it left.
The little mountain mouse squeaked twice, then turned into a golden thread and disappeared into the forest.
Xu Lu smiled and looked at the remaining small animals.
Since the eagle is the second one to arrive, let's bestow the second blessing upon it.
Thinking of this, Xu Lu waved to the eagle, which flapped its wings a few times and landed steadily on the tree branch in front of it.
Xu Lu did not hesitate and continued to use his 'Mythical Leap' ability.
Just like the little mountain mouse when it transformed, the eagle was also enveloped in a golden light.
However, its feathers did not turn golden like those of the mountain squirrel; they just looked more textured.
At the same time, the eagle's size is increasing.
Because they were standing so close, Xu Lu could even hear the sound of its bones growing.
A few minutes later, the eagle that had stopped growing had changed dramatically. Just standing there, it was over a meter tall, majestic and imposing, with feathers as black as ink and incredibly textured.
call out……
Suddenly, the eagle let out a cry, and then the small animals around it all fell to the ground with a thud.
Even Xu Lu felt the intimidating power of the voice, but at this moment he was 'possessed by the Mountain Lord', and this negative effect was instantly dispelled.
Clearly, the little mountain mouse had achieved extreme speed, while the eagle now, in addition to its changed size, had also gained some kind of special ability related to sound.
With these two test subjects, Xu Lu roughly understood what the 'mythical leap' was all about.
It's obvious.
As long as he uses this ability on other animals, those animals will gain the power from myths and legends.
The higher Xu Lu's level of beast taming proficiency, the greater the benefits he can bring to these animals.
He currently only has 'Level 5 Beast Taming Mastery', and he has just unlocked 'Mythical Leap Chapter', so the benefits that small animals can obtain are limited.
Even so, these small animals that he had 'handpicked' had already broken free from the constraints of their species and become extraordinary.
Furthermore, with the awakening of their intelligence, these animals, within the realm of fantasy and martial arts, have successfully transformed into 'demonic beasts'.
Whether they can continue to advance to become lesser demons, or cultivate for a hundred years to become greater demons, depends on their future opportunities.
Next, Xu Lu used his 'golden touch' on each of the small animals that came to him.
He saw some strange and unusual abilities.
For example, after a little fox was 'enlightened', in addition to its intelligence greatly increasing, it even gained the ability to charm.
Once again, it bewildered the other small animals, leaving them all swaying back and forth.
It seems that the legend of the 'fox spirit' is actually based on some truth.
After sending the 'charming little fox' away, there were basically no animals left.
Xu Lu then gave up.
However, at the same time, a bold idea arose in his mind:
"I can enlighten these animals, and humans are essentially animals too, so can I enlighten humans?"
When this idea came out, Xu Lu himself was quite startled.
Enlightening a 'human' is far more complex than enlightening an 'animal'.
Another issue is that he doesn't know whether the skill 'Beast Taming Mastery' works for humans.
If it really works.
After he enlightens them, do they become 'superpowered individuals', 'awakened individuals', or 'extraordinary individuals' or something like that?
