"Alright."
The Patrol Guard Bureau departs.
The next two days.
Mom pays special attention to the news about the ghostly creatures.
All over the country, there are ghostly creatures emerging, but with increased patrols, many ghostly creatures have been slain.
[Here is a special news report on the ghostly creatures]: After some research, Cultivators have discovered that ghostly creatures are actually ghostly beings naturally born from ghost pollution by Exotic Stars.
They have two heads; during their operations, one head splits off and uses illusion skills to deceive mothers with children and the children themselves to achieve the goal of abducting the children.
The main body usually abducts the child, while the head remains by the victim mother’s side, deceiving her for five days. After five days, the head sneaks away, leaving no trace behind.
From today onward, Cultivators are conducting district-by-district investigations of ghostly creatures nationwide. Additionally, Cultivators have found an initial tier magic to suppress ghost pollution and have already announced it to the public.
...
Even after the news broadcast, Mom still feels uneasy.
She follows the news reports every day.
However, the ghostly creatures have indeed suffered a significant blow.
In just three days, as many as ten thousand ghostly creatures have been slain and purified...
Along with 435 child trafficking gangs being dismantled...
And after Cultivators swept the area, Xu Ran didn’t see any ghostly creatures near the rehabilitation area.
Incidents of missing children have also significantly decreased.
It seems... the ghostly creature incident has come to a conclusion.
But the one thing Xu Ran finds puzzling is that not a single missing child’s body was found...
The bodies seem to have vanished, not even leaving behind bones.
Xu Ran still feels that something is unresolved, but the ghostly creatures have indeed disappeared, and in his Celestial Human Form achievement, only one abduction incident remains.
Indicating that the ghostly creature incident has indeed settled!!!
"Next, all that’s needed is to fully prepare for the next abduction incident, right?"
Xu Ran nods slightly.
...
Time flies by like a white horse galloping past a gap.
While being disciplined every day, Xu Ran also explores new skills from time to time...
After all, the second golden achievement, Perfect Cubs, must be secured in hand.
Of course, the exploration results are also evident—
[While bouncing on the bed, you triggered a new skill—Jump High. With diligent training, it can be promoted to the next sequence (Promotion Sequence: Jump High—Cloud Ladder Jump—Cloud Transition—Somersault Cloud...)]
[Current Jump High progress: 1/10000...]
[You attempt to observe the details of everything, triggering a new skill—Observing Carefully. (Promotion Sequence: Observing Carefully—Piercing Flaws—Heavy Pupil Treasure Skill—Daluo Cave Observation...)]
[Observing Carefully]: By carefully observing things in life, you can see the slightest detail.
[Piercing Flaws]: Allows you to see the flaws in things, giving you an edge over others.
[Heavy Pupil Treasure Skill]: Enables you to see through enemies’ combat habits, routes, predict their flaws, and catch them off guard.
[Daluo Cave Observation]: You can perceive the full picture of everything from a high-dimensional perspective.
[Current Observing Carefully progress: 1/10000...]
[You attempt to scare a dog by the roadside, triggering a new skill—Infant Intimidation. (Promotion Sequence: Infant Intimidation—Horror Whisper—Domain of Fear—Bestow Misfortune—Nail-Head Seven Arrows...)]
[Horror Whisper]: Your whispers create fear in listeners, shaking their will to fight and causing them to make more mistakes.
[Domain of Fear]: You create a domain that panics everything within, suppressing it all.
[Bestow Misfortune]: You inflict negative effects on enemies at a soul level; the longer they fight or entangle with you, the more they fall into a whirlpool of misfortune.
[Current Infant Intimidation progress: 1/10000...]
...
"Hmm? It works like this?"
Xu Ran was completely taken aback.
He just had a sudden whim to play a joke on a roadside dog.
Who knew the dog would jump in fright, tucking its tail and running away yelping.
And thus providing him with his tenth magical skill!
"The distance to securing the second golden achievement [Perfect Cubs] is within reach..."
"As long as all ten magical skills are promoted to the second sequence, it can be secured!"
