I Can Give Talents

Chapter 572: Chapter 572 - Bloodline Connection

Leyvi immediately noticed the two newly added talents in the list.

With this, he became even more certain that the Talent Bead would add new talents whenever one of his children was born.

Fast and Slow.

The Fast talent was easy enough to imagine. But what about Slow? There was hardly any reason to make yourself slower. Which meant the talent was most likely meant to slow down other things instead.

If that were the case, it would be an incredible ability in combat. Slowing an opponent’s movements, attacks, or even techniques could create a tremendous advantage.

Leyvi began wondering who should receive the two talents. His gaze shifted toward the sleeping Caterina beside him.

She was his wife now, so naturally she deserved a talent as well. However, Caterina was different from his other wives.

She was already a Soul Formation Realm cultivator with a well-established cultivation path and a complete set of abilities she had developed over many years. Unlike the others who had received their talents relatively early in their cultivation journeys, Caterina’s foundation had long since been set.

Giving her a random talent might not help her much. In fact, if the talent conflicted with her existing abilities, it could even become detrimental. After thinking about it for a while, Leyvi decided not to give Caterina a talent for now.

He would first learn more about her abilities and combat style.

Then, when a suitable talent appeared in the future, he could give her one that complemented her strengths instead of interfering with them.

As for his children...

Since the new talents had appeared because of their births, it only felt right that they should receive them.

Fast and Slow had appeared as a pair. In that case, he would simply give them to the twins.

The Fast talent would belong to Leyana. The Slow talent would belong to Leyina.

If Leyana ever became too fast, Leyina could help slow her down. Perfect. Leyvi chuckled inwardly at the thought.

Without a second thought, he assigned the two new talents to his daughters.

Like his son Leylin before them, both Leyana and Leyina showed ’??’ at their feeling points.

As for Leylin, his feeling points had now reached 50. Since the number had finally appeared, it was clear that he had started to become conscious of his surroundings and was beginning to recognize the people around him.

Leyvi’s gaze moved lower on the list of benefits.

Bloodline Connection and... Lullaby Expert?

Huh? Had he really just become an expert at putting babies to sleep?

Leyvi could not help but smile wryly. This was definitely one of those troll benefits again. Putting babies to sleep could be difficult for mortals, but for cultivators it was hardly a challenge. They had plenty of simple techniques for that.

Still, he quickly got over it. The other benefit seemed far more useful.

Bloodline Connection.

He could already guess what it did. In fact, he had already felt it the moment he distributed the talents to them.

He could now sense the whereabouts of his children in a way similar to how he could sense the location of his spirit beasts through their mental connections.

The difference was that this was not a mental link. It was a bloodline connection, since they were his own flesh and blood.

There were actually high-level methods out there for detecting bloodline connections. People sometimes used them to find lost family members or distant descendants. In some cases, they were even used to confirm whether children were truly theirs if infidelity was suspected.

That said, all the existing methods were quite difficult to learn, and the sensing range was usually quite limited.

As for his Bloodline Connection benefit, Leyvi was not sure yet exactly how far he could sense his children, but he knew it would not be inferior to any of the current methods available.

If he could sense their whereabouts no matter where they were in the world, that would be the best outcome. He would never have to worry about any of them getting lost or running into trouble.

Afterward, Leyvi closed the Talent Bead menu and lay down properly on the bed. He joined his wives in sleep. There was nothing else that needed to be done for now.

...

In the following month, the Leyan Family visited many places throughout the region.

A lot of locations that were usually closed to regular visitors became accessible thanks to Kajol. Having her as a connection helped tremendously.

They also went to visit the Institute of Universal Energy, the place where Barbara and Barcas worked. Of course, the siblings were not there since they were busy preparing for the upcoming wedding.

The more places Leyvi visited in this region, the more uneducated he felt about himself. There were so many different fields being studied and researched here, things that were mostly beyond his current understanding.

Some of the scholars might be arrogant, but Leyvi truly felt respect for all the academics and researchers. After all, they were the ones who made progress possible.

Without people like them constantly seeking to improve and explore new things, cultivation would never have reached the heights it has today.

To show his appreciation for their contributions to the cultivation world, Leyvi silently promised himself that he would put even more effort into his own cultivation from now on.

In this land of knowledge, it was Sawi who benefited the most among the Leyan Family members.

As an up-and-coming inventress, she saw and learned many things that would be extremely helpful for her future creations. Not only did she manage to get her hands on some rare materials that were not easily available on the market, she also came up with several new ideas that she was eager to work on once they returned home.

During this period, Leyvi had also tested the range of his Bloodline Connection with his children. So far, there did not seem to be any limit. The connection extended even farther than the mental link he shared with his spirit beasts.

What amazed him even more about the Bloodline Connection benefit was that he could precisely determine the distance between him and his children, much clearer and more accurate than the vague sense of distance he got through his spirit beasts’ mental links.

Apart from going sightseeing with his family, something unexpected also happened during their stay.

Over a month after his visit to the academy, a representative in charge of the Spiritual Cultivators program came in contact with Leyvi.

Apparently after his demonstration last time, the Spiritual Cultivators had excitedly reported his extraordinary showcase to their supervisor. This led to a thorough investigation into his identity.

Due to his growing popularity in the South Region, it became much easier for them to find information about him. This included some rather embarrassing rumors.

As a survivor of the recent Mystic Realm expedition, they assumed he had plenty of real combat experience as a Spiritual Cultivator.

So now the academy had approached him with a request. They wanted him to help train the academy’s Spiritual Cultivators in actual combat for about a week or so.

To say that he had plenty of combat experience specifically as a Spiritual Cultivator, Leyvi did not really think so. His fighting style was a mix of everything he had learned. He doubted he could guide them properly in pure Spiritual Cultivation combat.

However, he still accepted the request because he found the idea very interesting. Not to mention, it was only for a short period of one week.

Thus, under the academy’s arrangement, the supervisor brought Leyvi and the entire group of Spiritual Cultivators to a designated training ground. It was a vast mountain filled with low and intermediate level demonic beasts, as well as similar level demonic plants.

...

South Region.

Among all the mountains in the Cloud Continent, there was one that stood far taller than the rest. It was located within the South Region.

At its highest peak, a figure dressed mostly in white resided there, constantly surrounded by drifting clouds.

This person was an old man in a flowing white robe, with fully white hair and a long white beard.

The old man was none other than Gandolf, one of the Cloud Continent Protectors.

As usual, he was meditating at the peak, trying to gain further insight into the Dao.

Then, without warning, the clouds surrounding the peak began to split apart. A great stillness fell over the air as the swirling mist parted, as if bowing to an unseen presence. It revealed a wide, clear path cut straight through the heavens.

Gandolf sensed who was coming. He opened his eyes lazily.

Through the newly opened path, a middle-aged man with a refined and scholarly appearance floated leisurely toward him. His hands were clasped behind his back.

"Brother Gandolf, how are you?" the middle-aged scholar greeted with a warm smile.

"Oh, it is you," Gandolf replied, his tone flat. "I am the same as always. What brought you here? That is quite rare."

"Leyvi Leyan is your successor, is he not?" The scholar paused for a moment. "Can you give him to me?"

Gandolf was dumbfounded. He had not expected this topic at all. The last time he had heard about Leyvi was when the young man had returned safely from the Mystic Realm.

Did something happen? What exactly did he do to make this man become interested in him?
