Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 608: Chapter 244: Marvelous Uses of Innate Qi

Xu Ran muttered softly about everything he sensed from the wind. Even at night, the information was still plentiful. Many animals might naturally come out to forage at night.

In other words, as long as it’s within the range of the Smell Wind Skill, anything that poses a threat to Xu Ran or has intentions can be perceived.

”I didn’t expect the beast hides sent by Old Qi and Aunt Mei would be so helpful.”

Initially, Xu Ran only felt the hides were somewhat peculiar, but he did not expect they contained a Divine Skill like the Smell Wind Skill.

With the Smell Wind Skill and the dangerous perception of the Celestial Acupoint, survival is guaranteed.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and Xu Ran looked south, saying, ”I just sensed the stream to the south.”

As soon as he felt curious, Xu Ran detected a familiar scent from the wind and shook his head helplessly.

”Little White really has great eyes; even in such a dark night, it can see prey at the bottom of the stream that has just become a demon fish.”

”Didn’t even get to feel the demon’s power before Little White killed it...”

Indeed, the demon fish in that stream was slain by Little White.

Recently, my old dad is preparing for the third Body Refining. If not for today’s sudden arrival of a group of people at home, he might have gathered everything already.

Xu Binghu was at home all day, so the task of collecting beast blood could only be entrusted to Little White.

Just after perceiving the surroundings, a raptor’s shrill cry came from the sky, and the next moment, Little White appeared beside Xu Ran, with a yellow fat demon fish in its beak.

”Dad, the beast blood for the third Body Refining is collected.” Xu Ran shouted towards the house.

At that moment, Xu Binghu was drinking with Old Qi, Master Yang, and a few others. Upon hearing Xu Ran’s voice, he sobered up instantly and they all came out.

Upon coming out, they saw the white raptor beside Xu Ran, the Peregrine Falcon—Little White.

In Little White’s beak was a plump grass carp, almost a meter long, its scales extremely smooth—clearly not an ordinary species.

”Xiao Ran, wasn’t there another one needed?” Xu Binghu asked, swaying slightly.

Indeed, before tonight, they were still missing one kind of Demon Beast Blood. It was agreed to hunt in the Great Mountain tomorrow during the day. However, unexpectedly, a newly transformed demon grass carp appeared in the stream not far outside the village, making it effortless to obtain!

”I’ve just grasped a Perception Skill, which allows me to sense distant scenes through the wind. That’s how I knew there was a demon grass carp in the stream outside the village.”

”Thinking about how the collected beast blood for Body Refining lacked the blood of a demon fish, this should be even more effective.”

Xu Ran shared this development with everyone, causing Old Qi, Master Yang, Cui Hua, and Aunt Mei to express envy.

Now, it’s clear, the Xu Family not only has strong power but incredible luck too.

However, Xu Binghu was somewhat perplexed by Xu Ran’s words and asked, ”Xiao Ran, how did you comprehend another Perception Skill?”

Before today, Xu Ran had been with him the whole time. How could he not know anything about another Perception Skill?

Others also looked at Xu Ran, full of confusion.

”Is the Perception Skill self-taught, requiring no manual at all?” Old Qi asked.

Others also looked at Xu Ran, wanting to know the answer.

After all, everyone had just started Body Refining, and even though there was a Body Refining Manual, many things remained unknown.

Xu Ran looked at everyone and explained, ”This morning, Grandpa Qi sent me a beast hide. At that time, I sensed the hide’s supernatural quality.”

”In the afternoon, Grandma Mei also sent a beast hide.”

”Out of boredom, I compared them and discovered they were actually one hide split in two. It turned out to be a stroke of luck to grasp the Perception Skill within this hide.”

Xu Ran’s tone made it all sound like sheer luck.

Others stood at the door, faces full of astonishment as they listened to his words.

Old Qi was most aware that the hide came from a monkey he once killed by chance when he was young, finding the hide on its body.

At that time, he felt the hide had its mystical qualities, so he brought it back to study. Decades passed without result, yet he always believed it held mystery, hence gifting it to Xu Ran.

To his surprise, not a single day had gone by before Xu Ran perceived the Perception Skill from it, specifically the skill related to wind—a truly shocking outcome.

”Xiao Ran continues to surprise us in every way. A hide I spent decades researching without result was deciphered in less than a day. It was indeed a wise decision to give it to Xiao Ran,” Old Qi generously praised.

Aunt Mei, being the former owner of the other hide, though amazed, didn’t seem as excited as Old Qi.

Her hide was given to her by a young Stone Village man as a token of gratitude when she was young.

According to that young man, the hide was obtained from an ancient tomb, which didn’t initially convince her, but might actually be true now when she looks at it.

”I’ve always felt the hide was meant for Xiao Ran, and seeing this, it seems truly the case.” Aunt Mei praised continuously.

Master Yang and Cui Hua, while unaware of the hide’s hidden secrets, understood that a Perception Skill that senses danger through the wind sounded extremely powerful.

Especially in the Great Mountain, nothing would escape Xu Ran’s perception, allowing reckless hunting within.
