[Beast King Druid (choose one of two): Curse Immunity, Beast King's Will]
lv1 Curse Immunity: Reduces or immunizes most curse damage. (Passive, cannot be upgraded)
lv1 Beast King's Will: As a Beast King Druid, you possess a special kingly presence, which can immunize or reduce most mental attacks and slightly enhance spiritual power. (Passive, cannot be upgraded)
"Curse Immunity... Beast King's Will..."
"Which of these two skills should I choose?"
Qi Ping hesitated for a moment, but eventually decided to choose Beast King's Will.
The skill Curse Immunity is quite good and very rare, but currently, the chances of needing it are too small.
Moreover, Qi Ping does not like causing trouble, so the likelihood of encountering such enemies is too low. Wasting a skill slot for a highly unlikely event is obviously unwise.
"This skill can be saved for later. If I encounter curse-type magic in the future, I can choose Curse Immunity after increasing my Druid Level..."
"This time, it's better to choose Beast King's Will, which can resist mental attacks and slightly enhance spiritual power!"
Compared to the probability of using Curse Immunity, the frequency of using Beast King's Will is much higher.
Firstly, while mental attacks aren't numerous, the ability to perform them isn't uncommon. Especially after breaking through the Foundation Establishment Stage, mental attacks will gradually increase.
Secondly, the slight enhancement of spiritual power can also make Qi Ping's spiritual power a bit stronger.
This benefits Qi Ping in comprehending the True Meaning of the Law, studying arrays, casting the Plant Growth Skill... and other matters, and the benefits are not small.
Moreover, it's something Qi Ping can almost always use, making its value much greater.

"It's been over six months since the last time my Druid Level rose to level four, and the progress is quite good!"
Looking at the data on the attribute panel, Qi Ping's face unconsciously displayed a satisfied smile.
Thanks to his efforts, the Druid attribute panel has become more luxurious!
Every significant change in the Druid attributes brings Qi Ping immense joy.
Usually, he assesses whether he is comprehending the right direction and sees the fruits of his labor by observing the increase in experience.
Since Qi Ping's Druid skills don't gain experience by mechanically casting spells, Qi Ping can only gain more experience by grasping the correct direction, therefore experience isn't gained consistently, but varies with comprehension.
But regardless of whether experience is gained quickly or slowly, each time Qi Ping sees the results of his efforts, a sense of satisfaction rises in his heart, giving him more motivation to continue these pursuits.
And similar to today's upgrade, it's a time when Qi Ping reaps significant rewards after all this time.
Considering the current display on the attribute panel, the success is gratifying!
Jungle Druid profession advanced to Tree Shepherd!
And gained the key talent [Tree Spirit Contract], which allows Qi Ping to cultivate spirit trees to nurture spiritual land, produce resources, and cultivate battle-type spirit trees...
[Natural Affinity] talent evolved to [Heart of Nature], greatly enhancing Qi Ping's affinity for plant energy, laying the foundation for him to become an elite Array Master.
The Beast King Druid also gained the new skill [Beast King's Will], not only enabling Qi Ping to resist mental attacks but also enhancing spiritual power, bringing endless benefits!
These don't even account for the new Animal Companion contract slots Qi Ping gained, or his achievements in Immortal Cultivation Techniques.
Such significant improvements justify the countless days and nights of effort Qi Ping has put in over more than half a year!
...
After the Druid advanced to level five and Qi Ping familiarized himself with his new powers, he gave himself a few days off.
After all, both a person's spirit and will have thresholds and need rest and relaxation.
Maintaining a balance ensures the efficiency of Immortal Cultivation and helps maintain a better mindset to face the various challenges on the Path of Immortality.
Occasionally, pushing oneself to the limit feels exhilarating, but constantly being tense may not be beneficial.
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, there are many who have driven themselves mad, either being repressed by other cultivators after going on a killing spree or misled by a Heart Demon, destroying a lifetime of cultivation!
On this day, Qi Ping lay leisurely on a comfortable, soft lawn, enjoying the gentle breeze and warm sunlight.
Breathing in the fresh air of the forest mixed with the fragrance of medicinal herbs, and feeling the robust vitality and comfort of his body, Qi Ping felt incredibly good.
This is the true meaning of Immortal Cultivation!
Just then, Qi Ping heard the sound of playfulness in his ear, and he turned his head to see the little spirit fox and the little flower demon playing together.
They are both still in their childish nature, at the age where they love to play.
Every day, aside from completing the training Qi Ping requires, they either play or sleep deeply, living carefree and leisurely lives.
Especially the little spirit fox, which enjoys eating many spirit fruits, living happily, and it even has a stash of spirit fruits hidden in a place known to no one!
The little flower demon, having developed spiritual intelligence from the very moment of birth here, has fewer thoughts, sometimes clinging to Qi Ping or playing with the little spirit fox.
The only thing that puzzles it is the large crow that perches on the treetop day after day, basking in the sun, not keen on playing with them.
As for the bee swarm, they continue their daily task of diligently collecting nectar and producing honey, as their happiness lies in the strengthening of their tribe.
...
And as Qi Ping gazed at the increasingly lively and warm mountain peak, while feeling satisfied, he also felt a sense of regret.
This place is getting better, but ultimately it doesn't belong to him, and it constantly faces inspections and threats from the sect.
Outside, an unknown war is ongoing, causing many cultivators to die tragically, and the flames of war could reach here at any time.
What Qi Ping wants is a territory where no one can disturb him, capable of dealing with all risks, allowing him to farm and raise bees in peace, study honey, and research spirit trees with various special effects.
Like the Star Spirit Wood engraved with the Spirit Gathering Technique, which can efficiently produce spiritual land.
Or spirit trees that efficiently gather Great Sun Essence, or can launch Flame Burst Fireballs, and so on.
Gradually reaching the Immortal Dao of Longevity and Invincibility.
As he thought about it, a sudden realization arose in Qi Ping's heart, and a special mental realm slowly formed around him.
"Is this... Dao Heart Realm?"
