However, the large flower python in front of him did not seem to feel the danger from its own kind.
Instead, it nodded its snake head to Xiao Teng in a very friendly manner, greeting him.
"Hiss hiss ~"
If you do this, I can't bring myself to kill you.
Xiao Teng stared at his fellow creature, who was innocently nodding its head and greeting him.
He sighed, still not striking a fatal blow.
After all, his talent only had a chance to devour the other party's talent; the probability was not one hundred percent.
There was a high probability of getting nothing.
It's better to cultivate a subordinate first.
"Your talent is not bad. If you're still alive after the Inspiration Recovery, then follow me. I just happen to need a meat shield."
"This area has Golden Eagles, which is very dangerous. I advise you to quickly find another place to live!"
"You know Golden Eagles, right? A very large bird!"
Of course, the current Xiao Teng still couldn't speak, using only the snake tribe's communication methods.
After a few hisses, the large flower python opposite him seemed to understand his meaning.
It also hissed twice at him.
"Hiss hiss ~"
Xiao Teng was stunned; he understood, it meant thank you.
"Quite polite."
"I hope you don't die in the future, otherwise my kindness today would be wasted."
Xiao Teng mumbled, watching the other party's departing back, and also found a direction to leave the place.
............
A four-meter python is neither big nor small.
Xiao Teng dared not provoke jackals, wolves, tigers, or leopards, but some small creatures, like rabbits, mice, and squirrels, were still on Xiao Teng's menu.
In half a day, Xiao Teng caught one rabbit, one mouse, and one squirrel.
He didn't devour any talents, but his evolution points reached over seventy, just enough to advance two stages.
"System, advance at full power!"
Two System prompts came, and Xiao Teng's body size once again surged by two meters, reaching six meters, about half a person's waist thickness.
Xiao Teng nodded with satisfaction.
"Finally, I have some combat power."
"A six-meter python should at least be at the top of the food chain in nature, right?"
Xiao Teng remembered that his species could generally grow to about ten meters.
Six meters was still far from the limit.
He roamed around the vicinity twice.
He saw many small creatures, but they were all too cautious and difficult to catch.
Xiao Teng found that most creatures' talents were below A-rank; so far, he had only seen an S-rank from that previous fellow creature.
In one afternoon, Xiao Teng caught a few more small animals, raising his rank by another stage, and his body size reached seven meters.
He also devoured a talent.
【Aura Concealment (A-rank): You can hide your Qi, making it difficult to be discovered.】
With this talent, Xiao Teng felt he could freely control his Qi.
After becoming stronger, his body would faintly exude a deterrent force.
But with this talent, Xiao Teng could hide himself like an ordinary wild beast.
"This talent is simply a life-saving divine skill!"
It not only reduced the possibility of being discovered by natural enemies but also helped with hunting.
"This way, my hunting efficiency will greatly increase."
The probability of the Endless Devour talent is not very high; it's not always possible to devour a talent.
However, even so, the effect of this talent is Heaven-Defying.
When most creatures only Awaken one innate talent, Xiao Teng can accumulate a dozen or even dozens of talents.
Over time, Xiao Teng's strength will reach a terrifying level.
"I can't even imagine how strong I will be in the future!"
At night, Xiao Teng did not go out hunting again.
He had been active all day today and also needed to rest.
He casually found a tree hollow and burrowed into it, considering it a temporary home.
He covered the outside of the tree hollow with some leaves, then concealed his Qi, listened to the cicadas outside, and Xiao Teng gradually fell asleep.
The next morning, as the sun shone into the tree hollow, Xiao Teng opened his vertical pupils and woke up on time.
He yawned, slowly came to his senses, looked at the unfamiliar scenery in the wild, was momentarily dazed, and then remembered that he was no longer human.
His thoughts gradually cleared. After reviewing yesterday's experience, Xiao Teng fell into contemplation.
"Yesterday, I only devoured two talents all day, and the evolution points needed for advancement are also increasing. I need to speed up."
"Not a single day of the seven days can be wasted."
"Hunting is too difficult. It's better to kill more insects first and devour their talents, so that hunting will be easier in the future."
After wandering around the mountains yesterday, Xiao Teng found that not only wild beasts had Awaiting Awakening talents above their heads, but many insects also had Awaiting Awakening talents above their heads.
Insects are numerous and easy to catch.
"It's just that the evolution points obtained from killing insects are too few. Yesterday I just Rebirth and needed to quickly improve my strength, so I couldn't waste time eating insects."
"I am now seven meters long, and most wild beasts cannot defeat me. As long as I don't court death, there is basically no danger to my life. I'm not in a hurry to advance stages; I can calmly devour talents."
Xiao Teng made up his mind not to hunt today, but to find a few insect nests and wipe them out.
"I remember seeing a beehive yesterday when I was chasing a rabbit. I missed it because I was busy chasing the rabbit. I'll go take a look today."
Bees can be said to be creatures that most animals dare not provoke.
They would rather sacrifice their lives to drive away intruders. When hundreds or thousands of bees attack together, even a Wolf Pack has to retreat three paces.
But unfortunately, Xiao Teng just happened to be that small portion of animals that are not afraid of bees.
His entire body is covered in hard scales, and the bee's stinger cannot penetrate even a fraction of an inch.
It's just that normal pythons generally wouldn't provoke bees, because the honey that the swarm protects with their lives is simply not on the python's menu.
Buzz buzz buzz ~
A beehive hung on a tree branch seven or eight meters above the ground.
Countless diligent little bees were flying around the beehive.
It was foreseeable that once a creature approached the hive, they would launch a fierce attack.
Xiao Teng saw that some bees had Awaiting Awakening above their heads, but not all bees had it.
Many bees did not show Awaiting Awakening talents above their heads, only their rank.
This ratio was about one to ten, with those having talent compared to those without.
However, all the wild beasts he had seen before had Awaiting Awakening talents, without exception, at least F-rank.
This situation seemed to be different when it came to insects.
"What's going on? Does it mean that some insects won't Awaken talents after the Inspiration Recovery?"
Xiao Teng was very confused.
If that were the case, the number of talents that could be devoured would not be as many as imagined.
However, even if many bees did not have Awaiting Awakening talents, there were still thousands of bees here.
"Hehe! I can have a good feast."
Putting this question aside, Xiao Teng climbed up the tree trunk, aimed his tail, and swung it with force.
"Take off!"
Immediately, the beehive was sent flying like a ball by the force of Xiao Teng's tail.
Buzz buzz buzz?
Buzz buzz buzz!
Many bees immediately rushed out of the beehive, and the buzzing sound was several times louder.
Xiao Teng could feel the swarm's extreme anger from this buzzing sound.
