Everyone has a childish side, but adults face the harsh realities of the world from the moment they open their eyes, and their childish side is never shown to others.
Li Xingkong was the same; his pursuit of cultivation made him completely ignore everything else. If it weren't for the occasional need to interact with people, he would probably prefer to do everything alone.
But perhaps it was the slightly comical appearance of this Guapilong, coupled with its fairytale-like personality, that made Li Xingkong feel a little relaxed, and a previously unknown side of him was unconsciously revealed.
Wow, this ability of yours makes eating so much easier!
Seeing the abilities Li Xingkong displayed, the Guapilong's focus was clearly a bit strange. Its first thought was that this ability would make eating much easier.
"That's really convenient. Do you need my help?"
With a slight manipulation of his Divine Sense, Li Xingkong carved the sliced meat into a flower.
"No need, I can do it too!"
Guapilong pulled a strange headdress from his pocket, which looked like the kind of hat worn by science enthusiasts, and put it directly on his head.
The hat appeared to be some kind of mental energy amplification device. After wearing it, Li Xingkong could clearly feel that his mental energy strength had increased significantly, to the point that it could even interfere with reality.
This level of power can already be considered a weakened version of Divine Sense.
After putting on the hat, Guapilong stared intently at the takoyaki in front of him, as if he wanted to nail it to the ground with his gaze.
Li Xingkong's Divine Sense saw clearly, and he understood why this Guapilong was behaving this way.
He had never specifically studied meditation, nor had he trained in controlling his mental energy. His overly scattered thinking made it impossible for him to concentrate on controlling his mental energy to do what he wanted.
Even though it was staring intently at the octopus tentacle, from Li Xingkong's perspective, only a small portion of its dissipated mental energy was acting as it intended.
Most of the remaining mental energy was wasted on other things, and even made things worse.
Its spiritual world is quite rich; its Distortion spiritual energy occasionally forms all sorts of animals, as well as various humanoid forms, but it just refuses to settle down.
Driven by its wide-open gaze, the portion of mental energy it controlled finally managed to penetrate the tentacle, slicing it open crookedly.
Fortunately, the gloves helped, so at least I didn't lose face.
"Emmm, look, I did it too."
The Guapilong's crooked mental energy was still working hard, carving something on the piece of meat that had been cut out.
"These are my flowers, they're for you."
Li Xingkong looked at the mangled lump of meat handed to him, finding it hard to reconcile the image of it with that of a flower.
"Okay, alright."
Li Xingkong used his Divine Sense to lift the lump, and began to deduce the Hexagram in his mind.
This was the first time he had ever used his computing power for such a trivial matter.
After completing the calculations, Li Xingkong his finger, and the lump of stuff slowly began to adjust, eventually transforming into the shape of a flower.
"Wow, you're really amazing! That's exactly what I wanted to carve."
The Guapilong was stunned, not because of Li Xingkong's ability, but because Li Xingkong actually knew what it wanted to carve.
For a fleeting moment, Li Xingkong felt that having someone eating with him next to him was actually kind of interesting.
The meal was eaten quickly, after all, Li Xingkong had only had a sudden whim to satisfy his craving, and he really didn't intend to eat his fill here.
When Li Xingkong finished eating and was about to leave, the Guapilong had only eaten half of its food, but its belly was already quite swollen. It didn't let go of the remaining half of the tentacle either, picking it up with its gloves and stuffing it into its pocket.
Its pocket seems to be a spatial artifact, just like Doraemon's Four-Dimensional Pocket, growing out of its body.
Seeing that Li Xingkong was about to leave, it gritted its teeth, stuffed the remaining tentacle inside, jumped off the table, and ran quickly behind Li Xingkong.
"Wait for me, buddy!"
Li Xingkong stopped and turned to look at the guy.
"We've already eaten. Is there anything else you need?"
"Dude, buddy, we're so lucky to have met. You even treated me to dinner, so of course I have to repay you. Come on, where are you going? I'll take you there."
While talking to Li Xingkong, Guapilong walked to an open space and rummaged through his pockets.
Then, a spaceship, soaking wet, was flipped out and thrown onto the ground.
It took out a flashlight-like object from its hand, shone it on the spaceship, and the spaceship immediately shrunk to its normal size.
"Get in, this is a super-super spaceship, it's super fast."
Guapilong opened the door and crawled inside, his head popping out of the cockpit.
The spaceship was the perfect size for Guapilong, but for Li Xingkong, it was so big that he had to crouch down to stand, afraid of bumping his head.
Compared to the spaceship itself, Li Xingkong was more curious about its pocket.
"Can your pocket hold that much stuff?"
Li Xingkong was very curious.
"Hehe, don't underestimate this little pocket. It's connected to the largest treasure space of our Deep River Dragon Clan. All the pockets of the Deep River Dragon Clan are connected to it and share the same space."
"That space is enormous, bigger than a galaxy."
The Guapilong gestured with its hand, but its short, delicate arms were indeed hard to resist.
Li Xingkong quickly understood the principle behind its pocket.
It's actually similar to the first version of the Space Bag I learned; all the pockets are connected to the same storage space, and the pocket is just an entrance.
However, the fact that they can connect pockets across the entire known universe shows that their space technology is actually quite advanced.
Perhaps this storage method was adopted out of consideration for the entire race.
Or rather, it is precisely because they possess such a vast space for the exchange of goods that they have become a major merchant force in the universe.
Li Xingkong doesn't yet know about the pocket's security, but in terms of its convenience, it is undoubtedly quite useful.
"Come quick, come quick, I'll take you by boat."
Guapilong was still beckoning to Li Xingkong, and Li Xingkong couldn't refuse. After adjusting his height, Li Xingkong crawled into Guapilong's spaceship.
This spaceship was clearly a small one, with only a few key compartments, a small warehouse, a crew rest area, and a control console.
After Li Xingkong inside, there wasn't even a place to sit. Guapilong chuckled sheepishly.
Fortunately, if Li Xingkong to find a place to rest, Guapilong didn't need to make arrangements.
Its spaceship was very rudimentary. Li Xingkong only set up a small array, and the size of the entire control room increased several times. Although the size did not appear to change from the outside, the internal space had been expanded.
The space expanded, and Li Xingkong casually pulled out a chair and sat down.
No place to sit? Then build your own.
