its enormous size, it moved surprisingly fast, flashing by in an instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun had always been intensely curious, but most of the time, he didn’t go out of his way to stir up trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he had been waiting on Yushan for almost three days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nothing out of the ordinary had happened during that time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Considering the moderately good lot that mentioned the Fourth Rank Opportunity, Lei Jun felt a little stir inside, and finally chose to follow that giant shadow.*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though the other party’s movement was quick, Lei Jun, determined to track it, soon caught up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the mountain forest, that huge shadow shuffled along, stopping and going, occasionally lowering its head to sniff here and there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he saw it lift up a paw and dig at the ground, unearthing something from the woods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The night was cloudy, the moonlight originally hidden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, the cloud cover parted a little, letting moonlight spill over the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enormous figure became clear in that beam of light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...Lei Jun raised a hand, rubbing his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Short, chubby limbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black and white all over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A perfectly round head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two neat, semicircular tufts on top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Great big black rings under both eyes...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, his master’s kin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before traveling here, back on Blue Star, creatures like this had been called \"maoxiong,\" or giant pandas, but here, they were called Mountain Pi or Iron-Eating Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was actually his first time seeing one with his own eyes since arriving in this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Still, it looked a bit too big...* Lei Jun raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the giant pandas he remembered from Blue Star, the Mountain Pi before him looked identical in every other way, except it was way larger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its head was as big as a baby elephant’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting there on the ground, it looked like a massive round ball, almost the size of a small cottage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like somebody had scaled up a Blue Star giant panda several times over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Is it just this one that’s out of the ordinary, or are all the Gungun in this world this huge...* Lei Jun wondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was springtime now, and the wild bamboo shoots grew strong across the Bashu mountains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bamboo forest here on Yushan wasn’t as sprawling as the Southern Shu Bamboo Sea, but it was still impressively large.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant panda, the thing it had just dug up from the dirt, turned out to be a cluster of spring bamboo shoots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, compared to its massive body, those bamboo buds looked even tinier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clutched in its paw, they looked like sunflower seeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the panda raised its paw, and just like a person eating seeds, peeled away the bamboo shoot’s shell before tossing the flesh into its mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its big cheeks wobbled as it chewed happily, and honestly, it had the makings of a great eating show star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had a healthy appetite of course, munching down those shoots in a couple of bites,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>before getting right back to digging for more, snuffling around noisily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun stood off to the side, watching for a moment, not revealing himself just yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he wandered around the area a bit more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t find any other Mountain Pi or spirit beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nor did he find anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that only this one giant panda was in the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although, the commotion it was making did attract a few Yushan Temple disciples who came to investigate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lei Jun quietly helped the panda from the shadows, covering up its presence and sending those disciples away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun still wasn’t in a rush.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides watching the panda, he kept scanning his surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until, after finding nothing else, and failing to locate anything that looked more like a Fourth Rank Opportunity, Lei Jun finally drew closer to the panda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After observing for a while, Lei Jun figured out that the giant panda wasn’t just a glutton—it looked like it was searching for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it was definitely greedy; while searching, it stuffed its face the whole way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it never seemed to find whatever it was looking for, and eventually, it started circling in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun watched, clicking his tongue in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did a thorough check and got the sense that it probably wasn’t someone secretly luring the panda to Yushan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*So what was it that attracted the panda here?*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun’s mind suddenly flashed, and his expression turned a little strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He released the hidden form of his Wind-Thunder Talisman \"Night Wind,\" quietly revealing himself among the trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, he saw the big guy’s round eyes suddenly whirl, sharp and full of spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The panda’s big, round head snapped his way, its gaze fixed right on Lei Jun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The huge, lumbering creature, surprisingly quick and nimble, tumbled over to Lei Jun’s side, knocking over trees and sending up clouds of dirt as it went.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reaching Lei Jun, its pair of eyes spun ceaselessly, and instead of lunging, it began circling Lei Jun, that huge body revolving around him again and again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked for all the world like a kid pestering an adult for a toy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun was again at a loss whether to laugh or cry, \"Good grief, for such a big ball of fluff, you sure aren’t short on wits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to other animals, this tubby thing’s intelligence seemed rather high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, only compared to most animals—it wasn’t smart as a real person, nor as clever as those Great Demons or Immortal Spirits who’d cultivated enlightenment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By Lei Jun’s initial reckoning, its wits might be at about the level of a human child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for its physique, never mind most humans—even most animals couldn’t measure up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive body wasn’t just strong, but also nimble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It looked slow and silly, but was really very agile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for its strength—let’s not even go there. Look at that panda: from the chin down, it was like a double-door refrigerator...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun could easily sense the torrent of life force and muscle power surging beneath its black-and-white fur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*No idea if it was born like this, or if it ate some spirit flowers or spirit grass to get that way.*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*So, just what was it that drew this guy here?*\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lei Jun rose upward, stepping into the air, and hovered lightly above the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, with a flick of his hand, something appeared in his palm.\u003C\u002Fp>",1079,"2026-06-06T15:53:51.376Z",1,"novelbin.me","51c16c27da1e76a4765f9ccb45527f51971def17c8ca1c7f23d10122058fd1d5","cultivation-fortune-by-lots-chapter-160","cultivation-fortune-by-lots-chapter-158",801,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcultivation-fortune-by-lots-cover.jpg"]
