The top of this tree canopy is Ah Liu's most treasured spot. Normally, if Ah Shou wants to jump up and take a bite, he has to be hung up for an hour.
Standing on the treetop, Lin Ruo chuckled softly, and roughly understood what A Liu was thinking. It was using this way of submission to express its trust and dependence on her.
Gently patting the willow branch wrapped around her waist, Lin Ruo said with a smile, "Aren't you hungry after leveling up? Then I can save the trouble of preparing the mutated beasts."
Upon hearing this, A-Liu quickly put Lin Ruo down. Liu Zhi gently nuzzled Lin Ruo's face, wanting some food.
Lin Ruo smiled helplessly and skillfully placed the whole level 2 mutated beast she had prepared in front of A Liu. "Eat up."
A-Liu didn't stand on ceremony with Lin Ruo. She stuck more than a dozen willow branches into the mutated beast and quickly sucked its flesh and blood.
The several hundred kilograms of Level 2 mutated beast rapidly shriveled up, leaving Lin Ruo speechless. The energy of this Level 2 mutated beast was different from that of Level 1; it seemed to have a larger appetite after upgrading.
In just over ten minutes, Ah Liu had devoured the entire mutated beast, leaving only skin and bones.
When Ah Shou saw that Ah Liu had finished eating, he pounced on her, trying to bite the willow branch that Ah Liu hadn't put away after finishing her meal, to see if he could still bite it off. However, he was suddenly entangled by another willow branch of Ah Liu and hung in mid-air.
Ah Liu is now 50 meters tall, while Ah Shou is only 6 meters long. Hanging upside down on the tree, Ah Shou looks tiny in comparison. He keeps thrashing his front paws, but he just can't get down.
Only then did Afu pounce on it and scratch at A Liu's trunk, but he only left a few claw marks on the trunk and didn't even scratch off a piece of bark.
Ah Liu tied the two of them together with thickened willow branches and hung them on the tree, taking turns playing with them up and down.
Ah Fu and Ah Shou seem to have gotten used to this punishment, and even find it somewhat exhilarating, like riding a roller coaster.
After the three of them had finished playing, A-Liu put A-Fu and A-Shou on the ground and picked a red fruit from the tree crown and handed it to Lin Ruo.
Today's surprises kept coming one after another. Lin Ruo looked at the fruit in front of her with delight, "Wasn't it supposed to ripen in two months? It's ripe so quickly? Did the residual energy from the upgrade ripen it?"
A Liu gently tapped the willow branch, and pulled Lin Ruo's arm up, placing the fruit into Lin Ruo's hand.
Lin Ruo didn't stand on ceremony with A Liu, put away the red fruit, and gave A Liu's tree trunk a big kiss. "My mental power has been stuck at a bottleneck for so long! A Liu, your fruit ripened just in time!"
The willow branches of the entire tree twisted rapidly, and the whole tree felt lightheaded as Lin Ruoqin kissed it.
Afu and Ashou nudged Lin Ruo's body with their big heads, one after the other. Lin Ruo chuckled and pulled the two big heads over to give them a big kiss.
You guys are all amazing!
After saying that, she left Afu and Ashou outside to play with Aliu. She took the fruit and returned to the fortress, ignoring the uneaten chicken leg rice on the table, and went straight into the training room.
She sat cross-legged on the futon in the training room, took a deep breath, suppressed her resistance to the extreme pain, and then put the red fruit into her mouth.
Her mental energy expanded wildly outwards again, one thousand meters, five thousand meters, until it stopped at six thousand meters. She felt the mental energy in her mind boiling and surging.
What followed was that all-too-familiar, intense pain, this time far more intense than the pain from the previous fruit, and time seemed to drag on endlessly...
Lin Ruo clenched his fists, the veins on the back of his hands and neck bulging, and cold sweat covered his entire body the moment the pain struck.
She gritted her teeth and persevered. As long as she could hold on, she would break through the bottleneck and her strength would definitely increase significantly!
Time passed second by second, and Lin Ruo felt she could hear the clock on the wall ticking away.
Just when she was about to give up, "crack," she seemed to hear the sound of glass shattering in her mind, followed by an intense warmth and comfort that enveloped her, and her mental energy was recovering at an extremely fast speed.
She finally broke through that barrier, and the whole world opened up before her! She could clearly feel the various molecules in the air chasing and playing with each other, intertwining and forming countless objects around her.
She felt that same feeling again, the feeling that seemed to see through the essence of the whole world, and she quietly contemplated it.
While she was still immersed in this feeling, her body suddenly stiffened, and a vortex-like suction force suddenly appeared around the white crystal core deep in her mind. Her spatial ability was finally about to be upgraded again after more than a year!
It looks like she and Ah Liu are going to team up for a level-up today!
She dared not be careless, and immediately used her mental energy to take out a large number of crystal cores from her space, so many that they could bury her whole body.
Then she felt herself fall into a strange space. There was nothing in this space, but she could feel the rich spatial energy around her. The energy here was so similar to the spatial energy in her life space. Where was this?
While playing outside, A-Liu suddenly stretched out her willow branches and peered into the room, observing Lin Ruo's condition through the training room door. A-Fu and A-Shou also quickly ran in to get a closer look.
Seeing that Lin Ruo was surrounded by crystal cores, they probably knew that their master was about to level up again.
Ah Liu retracted her willow branches, shifting the position of all her twigs as they drooped, covering the entire fortress beneath them and blocking all outside views.
Afu and Ashou also consciously stood guard, one at the entrance to the living room and the other at the entrance to the training room.
All three of them are silently protecting Lin Ruo in their own ways, allowing her to focus on leveling up without distractions.
