When the strange stones were displayed, Lin Qian was stunned. The jade tablet in his sea of consciousness moved!
The courage that had been lamenting the loss of its collection also sensed something. The little tiger instantly abandoned its beloved toys and rested its fluffy head against a rock.
The half jade tablet in the sea of courage stirred slightly, then returned to calm, as if it had the will but not the strength, and could only helplessly give up.
Lin Qian was a jade tablet in the sea that was emitting a suction force that was constantly absorbing Lin Qian's spiritual power. In less than ten seconds, Lin Qian felt that he was about to be drained dry!
"Hoo!" The little tiger couldn't take it anymore and took a deep breath.
Finally, the jade tablet stopped absorbing energy. Feeling the nearly one-tenth of his spiritual power remaining within him, Lin Qian smiled wryly. This stuff was truly beyond his current capabilities!
I'm afraid that even if you open another acupoint at level four, the spiritual energy will barely be enough for one more time.
After absorbing almost all of Lin Qian's spiritual power, the jade tablet did not change significantly, except that it changed from being off to being on, but the battery level was still less than 1% after being turned on.
Having expended such a huge amount of spiritual energy, Lin Qian felt bitter and helpless, yet also eagerly anticipated the effect of the jade tablet.
After a long period of preparation, the jade tablet slowly emitted a very faint, crystalline glow amidst Lin Qian's tense anticipation. This glow, even fainter than a firefly, seemed to have exhausted all the jade tablet's power.
As soon as the radiance appeared, the jade pendant dimmed somewhat.
Lin Qian watched nervously as the radiant starlight slowly drifted out of his sea of consciousness and then fell into a stone. In his spiritual sense, Lin Qian saw that the radiance was absorbing something—an extremely faint aura, invisible and untouchable.
After absorbing a trace of energy, the Radiant Star Point grew stronger and faster. In just a few breaths, it had already explored all of the dozen or so stones, absorbing the energy contained within them.
The radiance instantly returned to the jade tablet, absorbing the radiance which had grown several times stronger. The jade tablet returned to its original form, emitting a soft, shimmering light, while the faint patterns along its edges became clearer.
Lin Qian was somewhat disappointed that the jade tablet hadn't changed anything else. He had thought he could uncover the mysteries of the jade tablet, but it turned out to be just like this.
Disappointment was one thing, but Lin Qian didn't dwell on it.
The benefits of these stones have already been absorbed, so there are still some benefits to be had.
Having lost their mystique, these stones have become ordinary stones, utterly useless.
Courage kicked the stone away in disgust and went back to playing with his toys.
The tiger mom glanced at them and didn't think much of it. She had brought these stones out of curiosity, and she wouldn't have dug them up if she hadn't encountered the chipmunk.
The chipmunk, no longer concerned about the stones, carefully patted her chest.
Great, I've cleaned up another bunch of messy items!
Lin Qian directed the chipmunks to tidy up the space. Apart from the food (spirit beast meat, spirit beast bones, nuts, pine cones, spirit fruits, and spirit plants) and the animal skin bags and wicker baskets, everything else was cleared away.
After the chipmunk ate a spirit plant and a spirit fruit, it successfully broke through to level three.
However, its space has not expanded much, only by 3 cubic meters, and it is now 13 cubic meters in size.
Lin Qian was helpless and could only say that it was better than nothing.
The chipmunk was overjoyed. Although its space hadn't increased much after breaking through to level three, it now had a life-saving skill!
It can now hide in its own space!
The little guy can breathe, eat, and move around in the space, but he can't move around anymore.
In other words, the chipmunk will leave the same space it entered from.
Of course, this ability can only be applied to itself; other living beings still cannot be taken into the space.
Courage watched as the chipmunk appeared, disappeared, and reappeared like a magic trick. The little tiger tilted its head, stretched out its paw and scratched in the air. It lay there for a while, but even with its considerable intelligence, it still couldn't figure it out.
After all, the concept of space is not something a little tiger that "cannot read" can comprehend on its own. Even the chipmunk was completely bewildered when it first awakened its space and couldn't explain it at all.
If Lin Qian hadn't known these things, and if the chipmunk hadn't demonstrated such agility, even a tiger probably wouldn't have been able to comprehend the meaning of space.
Of course, at present, the tigers only equate space with caves and storage places.
Lin Qian explained it to Yongqi, who then realized how amazing the chipmunk's new ability was. When the tiger looked at the chipmunk with its brown eyes, it was filled with gleaming envy.
Courage had always envied the chipmunk's spatial abilities; it had so many toys it wanted to collect, but unfortunately, it couldn't take them with it anymore.
On the contrary, it doesn't envy this ability to save its life. As a tiger, it is not afraid of fighting, and its speed, as fast as the wind, is enough for it to protect itself.
The older brother left a few small toys for the chipmunk to keep, and left the rest outside.
Courage glanced at Lin Qian with a pitiful look, not daring to make a fuss. He turned around, picked up a leather bag, and started rummaging through the pile of tree roots and stones. He picked out the "toys" that he really couldn't bear to throw away and put them into the leather bag, intending to carry it away like that.
Although the tiger mother felt sorry for her cubs, she also felt that there were too many toys that could help courage, and many branches and stones were readily available, so she didn't move and didn't intend to help her cubs.

Although the stepmother dotes on her son, she doesn't plan to help. Before the spiritual energy revival, Yongqi and Lin Qian were already sub-adult tigers, so carrying some things was nothing to them.
