Devour and the Body Will Grow Further

編集者: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The pile of leaves gave off a rotting stench.

Because Ye Bei had just fought with the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger, the smell of rotting leaves was mixed with the heavy, acrid scent of blood.

All the surrounding animals with a shred of intelligence ran far, far away without even daring to look back.

Crunch, crunch, crunch…

As for Ye Bei at that very moment…

Dragging his bloodied body, he was frantically devouring the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger's flesh.

It was strange.

Ye Bei's body was clearly torn apart in the middle, and the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger was terrifyingly large, but even after he had consumed more than half of the tiger, his stomach didn't increase in size at all. In fact, in place of the original gaping gash, new flesh was growing out rapidly, and it slowly melded into place and grew stronger with the rest of his body.

"This is delicious! It's remarkable!"

"Is this what tiger meat tastes like?"

"With each bite I take, it feels like a surge of refreshing energy is spreading through my body…"

"It feels like my body is becoming stronger yet again."

While devouring the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger, Ye Bei's eyes were widened, and noises kept coming from his mouth.

In terms of texture, flavor, and the hot energy it gave, this meat was over ten times better than the eggs and two eagles he had eaten!

Although it had a very metallic tang, since he was eating it raw…

But at that moment, Ye Bei didn't notice this. His eyes gazed coldly at the tiger as fresh red blood oozed out from the corners of his mouth. He was completely absorbed in his feast.

Twenty minutes…

It took Ye Bei a total of 20 minutes to finish devouring the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger.

Seeing that he had eaten the entire tiger and that he had grown to a length of four meters, Ye Bei sized himself up, satisfied.

The injuries he'd gotten while fighting the Sabre-toothed Tiger were completely healed.

His body was now approximately four meters long.

And 20 centimeters thick in diameter.

His snakeskin had gotten at least three times tougher… It was so thick that an ordinary dagger wouldn't be able to penetrate it.

His jaws had also grown much stronger; it felt like he could crush a thick bowl into smithereens…

His overall strength had also greatly increased. If an elephant were to appear in front of him, he could very possibly kill it just by wrapping his body around its neck and strangling it to death!

These were the first thoughts and sensations that Ye Bei had after he finished eating the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger!

Of course…

In addition to all these, there was still one other thing that made Ye Bei extremely excited.

The voice of the System rang out again.

"Congratulations to the Host on successfully devouring the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger and gaining 3000 Evolution Points. You are currently only 950 points away from the next stage of evolution! Keep it up, and all the best!"

He was only 950 points away from the next stage of evolution…

In other words, as long as he kept eating creatures, he would be able to complete his current stage!!!

"System, if I can evolve that quickly, does that mean if I ate all the creatures on this island, I could easily complete a few stages of evolution?"

Excited, Ye Bei asked the question out of curiosity.

After all, he was thrilled by his current evolution speed.

"The evolution process is divided into stages! Host, currently, you're only undergoing an evolution as a Blood Python. This process will eventually reach its limit! After all, you are still at LV1, and this is just one of the ways of evolving. When you have completed the first stage of evolution in LV1, you will break free from the species limitation, and there will be significant changes."

"What?"

Hearing this, Ye Bei was taken aback.

Breaking free from the species limitations and undergoing the genetic evolution of LV1 was merely the beginning of the evolutionary process.

This information, truth be told, shocked Ye Bei to his core!

"In other words, the evolution I'm going through currently only affects me as a Blood Python? I'll only increase in level when the Blood Python's evolution reaches the top? So, what is my next level?"

Ye Bei was fairly curious.

"Titan Python!"

"That's amazing! I'll become a Titan Python just like that?"

Ye Bei's pupils dilated…

Under normal circumstances, a Blood Python's body was approximately two feet long. However, Ye Bei had already reached four meters. With the System's help, the evolution process would clearly surpass the usual species limitations.

Applying this same ratio…

Once he leveled up and became a Titan Python, wouldn't he be at least a few hundred meters long?

At that thought, Ye Bei couldn't contain the excitement that started coursing through his veins…

However, from the looks of it, he still had a very long way to go!

"Host, according to the System's calculations, in order to break free from the Blood Python's evolution limits, you'll have to consume every single species on this entire island. But before that, you should first complete the second stage of evolution for the Blood Python!" the system stated solemnly.

Ye Bei's excitement grew when he heard this.

It was the Titan Python that the System was speaking of—the ancient species of legends! Now, with such simple requirements, all he had to do was consume every single species to become one...

"Understood! I'd already planned to turn this entire island into my private domain, anyway," Ye Bei declared decisively.

Hiss. Hiss. Hiss…

Then, his body, which was coiled on the ground, immediately started to move. The scarlet veins in his eyes grew prominent, and his body exuded a terrifying, chilling aura.

The Blood Python…

Was about to begin his next step in devouring!!!
