Chapter 1083: Chapter 1082: Feathers
"Quick, tell me why you’ve suddenly made such progress," Yanran urged.
Ba Lv has always been making mediocre progress in Spiritual Power training, and coupled with her anxiety in this mental discipline, she indeed hasn’t achieved much.
Before she broke through to the third stage this time, she had been stuck in the second stage for a long time.
However, on just the third day after following Jiang Cheng, Yanran broke through the first stage of Spiritual Power training. After fourteen days, she had already reached the second stage.
Spiritual Power training cannot be rushed, so Jiang Cheng specifically advised Yanran not to hastily pursue the higher levels but to solidify each stage’s foundation, and then continue forward on this solid base.
This step-by-step approach will result in particularly amazing achievements, and according to this training method, it will avoid any unexpected occurrences during the process.
So at this moment, Yanran was speaking half in jest, worried that Ba Lv might recall being reprimanded by Jiang Cheng before meditation.
"What good method do I have?" Ba Lv calmed down from her initial joy, and said softly, "Whenever I think of my teacher not wanting to accept me as a student, I manage to calm down."
"Are you kidding? There’s really such a method?" Yanran widened her eyes.
"It’s true!" Ba Lv earnestly looked at Yanran and said, "When I think like this, a chill runs through my body, and then I calm down, and can quickly get into a meditative state."
This method is truly incredible. Not just Yanran, even Jiang Cheng didn’t expect there to be such a quick way to enter meditation.
He touched his nose, unsure of what to say.
Perhaps it was by chance; maybe this method is suitable for Ba Lvluo. After Ba Lv was severely reprimanded by Jiang Cheng, she achieved excellent progress in Spiritual Power training. Even Jiang Cheng was surprised by Ba Lv’s approach.
"Teacher, teacher!" Yanran called Jiang Cheng.
"Hm?" Jiang Cheng didn’t understand why Yanran was calling him so excitedly.
"Scold me," Yanran demanded.
"What?" Jiang Cheng didn’t understand what Yanran meant by that request.
Scold her? Why would he need to scold her out of the blue?
"Scold me to see if I can feel like Ba Lv," Yanran said, "I want to try."
"If I slap you, do you think the effect will be even better?" Jiang Cheng pretended to want to hit Yanran.
Recently, his two female disciples have made quite significant progress in Spiritual Power training, which made him feel happy.
So, rarely, he joked around with his disciples.
Yanran pretended to be afraid and hid behind Ba Lv.
Ba Lv watched Jiang Cheng and Yanran, feeling warm inside. She knew they did this for her, to distract her from recalling being scolded earlier. Even her teacher was joking for her sake.
However, all of this could only be kept in her heart; Ba Lv wouldn’t say such words out loud.
"Teacher, since I’ve made some progress, can I go out and play now?"
Ba Lv remembers well; she clearly recalls Jiang Cheng’s response to her.
"I keep my word!" Jiang Cheng nodded.
He turned and walked to the star system map, calculated the route, and said to Ba Lv and Yanran, "There’s a planet not far away; you can go down and play, but I can’t guarantee if you’ll be able to land."
What does "unable to land" mean? Yanran and Ba Lv didn’t understand what Jiang Cheng meant.
Jiang Cheng beckoned them, and when they came forward, he pointed to a planet within the star system map and said, "We’ll soon arrive here, but there’s no human life here. Are you willing to stay?"
Yanran and Ba Lv exchanged a glance; how desolate a planet without humans must be.
Jiang Cheng seemed to notice their thoughts and said with a slight smile, "You don’t need to overthink, let’s just go see the planet."
Yanran and Ba Lv nodded; human presence or not, it’s better than being cooped up in the cabin all day.
As they approached the planet Jiang Cheng mentioned, Yanran and Ba Lv finally understood what he meant by "unable to land."
It’s a planet almost covered by oceans.
Of course, this environment isn’t suitable for human survival.
Although the planet is not large, it is still a planet, so it wouldn’t be too small.
After Ba Lv circled with the spaceship for a few rounds, she found a narrow stretch of land and slowly landed.
On the land are some green grasses, occasionally some clusters of wildflowers blooming between them, scattered as a simple scenery.
To Jiang Cheng and his companions who have seen the scenery of space, such fresh scenes are quite appealing.
The cool sea breeze blew against them, carrying the unique scent of the ocean, making them feel refreshed; the waves rolled, reaching their feet, and created white foam.
After being inside the spaceship for many days, though the ship was comfortable enough, the space was still small, and being in cramped places for a long time made one want to get out into the wide-open world.
So, when they all came outside, they couldn’t help but take deep breaths of fresh air.
The Flaming Firebird flapped its wings and soared into the sky. Jiang Cheng was surprised to find that the Flaming Firebird now looked almost identical to her mother.
Perhaps having eaten well in the human world, the Flaming Firebird’s body even appeared slightly larger than her mother’s.
At this moment, the Flaming Firebird spread her wings, her fiery red feathers flashed brightly.
She flew continuously up and down in the sky, venting the repressed feelings from being confined inside the spaceship.
Yanran gazed in fascination at the Flaming Firebird’s figure, seemingly mesmerized by her sudden display of elegance.
Ba Lvluo rolled up her pants and walked barefoot on the beach, occasionally searching for beautiful shells.
Her harvest seemed to be quite good; her two pockets bulged, indicating she had found what she was looking for.
Jiang Cheng squatted on the ground, repeatedly turning over a small piece of item in his hands, which clearly bore signs of human civilization.
In other words, Nature would not naturally produce such things.
"Teacher, what are you looking at?" Yanran, having returned beside him at some point, bent down out of curiosity to look at the item in Jiang Cheng’s hands.
"Look," Jiang Cheng raised the item in his hands, letting Yanran see it more clearly.
Yanran inspected closely, and after a while, she raised her head in surprise, "This... this item looks like a piece of plastic?"
Haha, you figured it out too." Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "That’s right, it’s a piece of plastic. Either left behind by another spaceship passing through or...
