Chapter 165 Training the Little Sable
"Ow~!"
Squeak~!
Bang~!
"Ow~!"
Squeak~!
Bang~!
Under the pine tree, as sunset approached, Cangnian was training the little sable.
However, what he was training was not the little sable's spatial confinement, but its most basic skill—storage space.
In fact, the little sable has used this skill, which it acquired very early on, frequently and is already quite proficient at it.
But after seeing its performance in yesterday's battle, Cangnian had a new idea.
Of the little sable's three skills, only spatial confinement seems to play a crucial supporting role in battle.
But upon closer examination, there are actually quite a few areas that can be developed.
Just like before, when it used a spatial gate to sever the head of the Mountain Eagle.
This could be a short-range teleportation skill, or it could be an incredibly powerful attack skill!
However, the little sable is not fast enough at opening and closing the space door yet.
Now, Cangnian is training its speed and accuracy in opening and closing the light wheel of the storage space exit.
This skill has one characteristic: it can only be used to install things that have no independent consciousness.
Creatures with independent consciousness, however, will be blocked by the halo.
So, looking at it this way, isn't this a shield with unlimited defensive capabilities?
Therefore, Cangnian personally sparred with the little sable, training it to accurately judge the enemy's attack path, so as to open the storage space exit light wheel on the enemy's inevitable path of attack, thus achieving the purpose of defending against the enemy's offensive.
Now, the speed at which the Little Sable can switch on and off the light wheel can be basically a fraction of a second.
Therefore, Cang Nian first practices how to use this skill.
Each time Cang Nian called out, it was a reminder to the little sable that he was about to attack!
Then, he would immediately raise his claws and attack the little sable!
The little sable needs to anticipate its own attack path within one second, and react accordingly to defend itself, provided it is warned, otherwise it will be hit by its own attack!
To ensure the effectiveness of the training, Cangnian's attacks were unpredictable and entirely arbitrary.
Sometimes, different attacks follow different attack paths.
Sometimes, two or three attacks in a row will target the same spot.
This unpredictable and erratic attack style put immense pressure on the little sable.
However, Cangnian would not kill him, otherwise, how could a small sable withstand his claw?
He controlled his strength perfectly; the force of his swipe was just enough to send the little sable flying, making it feel pain but not get injured.
Even so, the little sable still got quite a few beatings.
But the little sable, who hoped to play an increasingly important role in the team, was very resilient. After being hit, it whimpered twice and immediately got up to prepare to defend against the second blow.
Under such training, the little sable's reaction improved by leaps and bounds and became more and more skillful.
Later on, Cangnian only deliberately controlled his speed, not his strength, and every claw strike was solid.
But the little sable, already well-trained, was able to defend itself every time.
[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (6666/10000)]
[Ding! Scratching skill proficiency +1! (6667/10000)]
In this way, Cang Nian can also practice his tearing skills and accumulate skill proficiency, without neglecting either aspect.
And so, after the battle where the pine cones matured, the Cangnian family returned to a peaceful and fulfilling life.
……
Fifty-five days after birth, early morning.
[Ding! Used Lightness skill once, Lightness skill proficiency +1! (10000/10000)]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your Lightness Skill proficiency has reached maximum. This skill has evolved into—Soaring!]
As a system notification sounded in his mind, Cang Nian felt his hind limbs become much stronger, as if his body had become lighter.
"Soaring into the air? Does that mean I can fly?"
Hearing the system notification, Cang Nian, who was practicing tree climbing, thought excitedly.
Then, he ran to an open space and jumped up!
The powerful hind limb tendons unleashed an amazing elasticity, allowing Cang Nian to leap up from the ground and soar nearly ten meters into the air!
However, the imagined flight did not occur; he continued to fall due to gravity.
Fortunately, his physical body is now extremely strong, and with his agile movements, he landed with a roll and was not injured at all, and didn't even feel much pain.
"Okay... a jump of ten meters high can be considered a leap into the air. I wonder when I'll actually be able to fly..."
Cang Nian had anticipated this outcome, but he was still somewhat disappointed, yet filled with anticipation.
Flying through the air in one's own body is a scene that almost everyone has imagined.
Even though he is no longer human, Cang Nian still harbors such simple fantasies.
Moreover, if I could fly, I would almost be considered a perfect life form!
The idiom "like adding wings to a tiger" describes how incredibly powerful a tiger, already a top predator adept at both land and water, would become if it grew wings.
But Cangnian quickly adjusted his mindset.
A week has passed since the pine cones matured in the battle.
During this time, he not only made the most of his own time, spending almost all his time exercising except for eating, drinking, and relieving himself, but also helped the little sable exercise.
Such immersive training is also very effective.
The sixth-tier skill "Riding the Wind" in the running skill chain requires 1000 kilometers to reach one level of proficiency. Cang Nian completes this skill once a day to accumulate one level of proficiency, and he is currently at level eight.
The howling skill, which he hadn't deliberately practiced, had reached the fourth level a few days ago and evolved into the roar skill. This made Cangnian's voice much louder and less childish than before, giving him the imposing presence of a forest king.
The Scratching skill, during its training with the little sable, also advanced to the fourth tier, evolving into the Tear skill. This made Cang Nian's claws seem to have a weakened version of the Law Armor Break, making them incredibly powerful.
Tiger Brother was most pleased with this, because he discovered that after his older brother started training the little sable, he rarely beat him anymore.
Cangnian's previously neglected climbing skill has also reached the fourth tier and evolved into the Ascending Cloud skill. The name puzzled Cangnian, but the effect of strengthening his limbs was quite good.
Overall, although Cangnian did not break through to the third tier of evolution during this period, the enhancement of his strength after the evolution of several skills that mainly boosted combat was clearly visible.
【Strength: 180】
【Speed: 220】
[Defense: 180]
[Stamina: 180]
【Spirit: 180】
Maximum free attribute points: 50%
[Maximum Overlimit Burst Attribute Points: 20%]
Looking at the system panel, which was significantly improved compared to a week ago, Cang Nian felt that all his efforts over this period of time had truly paid off, and he was extremely satisfied.
"Um... Lords Tiger, Lord Mink, Lord Snake, and Lord Tree, there's something I want to say."
At this moment, the fisherman stood up, took a deep breath, and said.
