4: Devil-Yin Claw!

Xiao Chen swam around the leaf slowly, thinking deeply on weather he should leave the area or not..

"The fastest way for me to train is to devour other beings, even thought I can cultivate, this is a faster way" xiao Chen thought, he slowly moved towards the bundled up group of eggs..

He was thinking of devouring all of these unborn babies, but his heart wouldn't let him..

"This is the only time I will be kind" xiao Chen thought, he didn't want to be known as the person who swallowed his siblings, he got rid of his urge and moved further away..

"Hmm, I can devour anything with life or spiritual Qi?" Xiao Chen thought, if he could devour things with spiritual Qi then that meant that even treasures found in heaven and earth could be devoured and refined to help his cultivation..

[system mission!!

Task: reach the 3rd stage of the body refining realm..

Reward: [Devil -Yin claw technique] a mechanical voice sounded off in his head, startling xiao Chen..

"A new system mission?" Xiao Chen became excited as he read through the contents of the system mission, it didn't have a time limit and the reward was very eye catching, he didn't know much about martial techniques but from the name of his skill he knew it was very powerful..

Xiao Chen suddenly thought about something and stopped, his eyes flashed with a strange light as he viciously looked at the over hundreds of eggs on the leaf..

"Hehe, they are just fish babies after all, they won't know it was me, yes that's right, no one will know" he laughed manically in his head as he slowly approached the eggs..

Xiao Chen slowly swallowed a whole egg into his belly before hurriedly circulating the Primordial Yin and Yang Art.

The egg which was in his small belly slowly turned into a form of energy as it slightly boosted his cultivation..

"Doesn't taste bad" xiao Chen thought, after breaking through his body was a lot bigger, if not he would not be able to swallow the eggs easily just like this..

Xiao Chen continued to swallow more eggs and slowly refined them, it would be best to raise another to another level before he left the area..

He continued to stuff his small face with the eggs of his family members while slowly refining them into yin and yang energy after, his huge belly would always turn back to normal once he finished, but it was soon stuffed back up..

Xiao Chen would rather gain the devil-yin claw before fighting anything, after all it would boost his survival rate in this large pond, he knew the fish in this world wouldn't be as docile and weak as in his last life, in this world of cultivation anything could take his life.

2 hours went by as xiao Chen finished devouring all the small eggs, surprisingly he was able to raise 1 cultivation level, his body was a lot stronger and bigger than before, he was at least twice the size he was before..

"Haha, I will rule this world" xiao Chen became excited at the thought of ruling over the strongest force in the universe as a divine dragon..

He knew it wouldn't be easy, and anything could take his life and the system would be gone forever, he wouldn't dare to make any rash decisions...

"Hmm?" Xiao Chen decided to test his strength, he had a sharp set of small teeth and his whole body was very strong, even his scales were like cold weapons..

Xiao Chen noticed a small little fish swimming around near the side of the pond, it seemed to be staying around the area where he was born..

Swoosh!!

The air seemed to burst as xiao Chen shot out, his body was like a bullet as he blasted out, he didn't even feel any resistance from the water around him..

Boom!!!

His body was a lot bigger than that of the small fish, with a twist of his small neck he fiercely bit into the body of the fish..

The water around them was moving ferociously as the small fish struggled in xiao chen's jaws..

It was shocked, all it saw was a flash of golden light before its vision started blurring..

"Too easy" xiao Chen said as he devoured the small fish, he then refined its body to aid his cultivation, he was disappointed, that small fish hadn't given him much..

"What is that?" Xiao Chen had sharp eyes and noticed a strange glow at the side of the pond, he noticed a small blue rock etched into the dirt..

"Is that what I think it is?" Xiao chen's heart shook as he hurried over, with his small but strong fins he dusted away the dirt..

"Just like I thought, a spirit stone" xiao Chen started at the small blue stone, he had read many Xianxia Manhua, and all spirit stones looked exactly like this, even though it's aura was faint and the stone was small, xiao Chen could feel a strange force of energy and his mind was telling him that it was very valuable.

Xiao Chen started biting the spirit stone but it wouldn't break no matter the amount of force, he decided to just swallow it..

The spirit stone was now inside of his stomach, he started circulating the Primordial Art, after a few long minutes the spirit stone turned into a ferocious flow of energy as it freely flew around until it was absorbed fully by him, the original stone seemed to dissipate mysteriously as he absorbed all the Qi...

Boom!!!

His body shook as it extended out, growing to become a lot bigger, his sharp teeth even carried a cold flint of light..

He had broken through instantly...
