Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger-Chapter 104 - 100: Is the Second Spiritual Energy Revival Coming?

Chapter 104: Chapter 100: Is the Second Spiritual Energy Revival Coming?

September 21, Saturday.

Clear.

As the first ray of sunlight streamed through the window, Iron Head slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing his little companions still sleeping soundly, Iron Head quietly got up, carefully opened the door, and stepped into the yard.

The storm had subsided, and the sunlight was gentle.

Iron Head looked ahead, the yard was full of traces left by the ravages of the storm, a total mess.

"Clack."

Iron Head’s eyes glimmered as he decided to do something.

He stepped forward, clearing the fallen branches and leaves into the corner. After finishing this, Iron Head began to inspect the various areas of the farm for any safety hazards.

At nine in the morning, Chen Yuan woke up.

He couldn’t help but stretch lazily, squinting toward the window: "The rain has stopped."

The storm had lasted through the night, thankfully not like the continuous seven-day rain before; it stopped early this morning, sparing further impact.

But when Chen Yuan checked his phone, he found the internet flooded with reports about this storm:

[Storms sweep the globe; could this be a prelude to major events?]

[Second Spiritual Energy Revival approaching; everyone prepare!] 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

"Global again?" Chen Yuan frowned, realizing he had been misled by last night’s news.

He thought the storm was limited to Baokun City, but it turns out it was global.

After returning home exhausted last night, he hadn’t paid attention to online information, eating dinner and quickly falling asleep.

"In that case, this storm is quite peculiar."

"The last continuous seven-day rain marked the beginning of the Spiritual Energy Revival."

"So what about this time?"

"Could it really be the Second Spiritual Energy Revival?"

Thoughts quickly flashed by, and Chen Yuan shook his head, deciding not to dwell on them.

Professional issues should be left to professionals.

His task now was to check on the farm after the storm.

Getting dressed, he went to the hall where the three little ones who loved to sleep in were still sound asleep, and Bean Chicken and the chicks were nowhere to be seen.

Chen Yuan quietly left the hall, opened the door to the yard, breathing in the fresh air after the storm, observing the lush greenery and distant mountains shrouded in mist.

In the next moment, he saw the old man cleaning the piled branches and leaves in the corner with a broom, quickly going over: "Grandpa, let me."

Chen Weiyi turned towards Chen Yuan, his once slightly hunched figure now surprisingly upright, and smiling, the wrinkles on his face seemed to have faded, full of spirit compared to yesterday.

Chen Yuan paused, then realized: "Grandpa, did you successfully meditate?"

Chen Weiyi smiled slightly: "Just tried meditating after getting up, didn’t expect success."

Pausing briefly, he felt his distinctly different body and expressed with emotion: "So this is what it feels like to become a Beastmaster."

Since getting older, although Chen Weiyi hadn’t had major illnesses, minor ailments kept cropping up, and he lacked the vigor of his younger days.

He hadn’t felt this refreshed in years.

Chen Yuan laughed: "Grandpa, you haven’t contracted a Pet Beast yet, so you’re not truly a Beastmaster."

The old man had been trying to meditate for several days, not expecting success after one stormy night.

"Grandpa, what kind of Pet Beast would you like to contract?" Chen Yuan curiously asked.

Chen Weiyi shook his head, chuckling: "No rush, let’s take it slow."

Chen Yuan nodded.

The old man, at his age, surely wouldn’t be as keen as young Beastmasters about pet beast battles, so the Pet Beast he contracts should have a gentle temperament and enough strength to protect him.

If possible, a riding Pet Beast that could take the old man around would be best.

Chen Yuan kept this in mind as he began inspecting the farm post-storm.

He looked around and saw the two towering Luminous Fruit Trees still standing in the yard, their branches and leaves even more lush, seemingly untouched by the storm.

And next to them, the Blazing Fruit Tree...

Wait a moment.

Did it grow taller?

Chen Yuan rubbed his eyes and looked again — the previously just over two-meter Blazing Fruit Tree had surpassed three meters, with more branches and leaves sprouting.

At the same time,

Chen Yuan keenly noticed many new sprouts had emerged in the nearby field, numbering eighteen in total.

Previously, every time he ate a Luminous Fruit, he would plant the seed, but not every seed sprouted successfully.

But now... the majority seemed to have sprouted.

The field now had two mature Luminous Fruit Trees, one growing Blazing Fruit Tree, one Blazing Fruit Tree sprout, and seventeen Luminous Fruit Tree sprouts.

If they all matured, these towering trees would fill the whole field, resembling a small forest from afar.

How much fruit would he harvest then? How much Contribution Value could he exchange?

Chen Yuan was momentarily dizzy with joy from the sprouting spirit plants, only regaining his composure to murmur: "Solved! There’s definitely something about this storm."

"Could it really be the Second Spiritual Energy Revival?"

"Cluck cluck cluck~"

As Chen Yuan pondered, familiar clucking sounds reached his ears, prompting him to follow the sound and find Bean Chicken with the little chicks gazing helplessly at the collapsed chicken coop.

Last night’s storm hadn’t caused too much damage to the farm, but the makeshift coop with an oilcloth roof had fallen.

Chen Yuan said: "It’s okay, I’ll build you a new nest."
