Chapter 239 The first transformation(1/2)
Su Ming was gnawing at the corpse of the strange snake, and the taste was not delicious. The dark green and poisonous blood tasted like spicy black pepper sauce, but the spiritual energy and nutrition contained between the flesh were very rich.
Upgrading three levels in a row and obtaining 3 attribute points, the Black Tiger still invests it in [Qi and Blood]. The three cornerstone talents on his body are all related to the physical body. The stronger the Qi and Blood, the greater the effect it plays.
The big cat continued to walk westward, where the terrain was higher, perhaps preventing the invasion of black smoke and clouds after the volcano erupted.
The environment is getting more and more severe, with toxic particles such as carbon monoxide permeating the atmosphere, and the magma from the earth rises, which is stuffy and dirty, and the visibility is very vague.
"Cough cough cough, bah!" The big cat coughed violently, then a mouthful of dark green sputum was spit out, falling on the ground and making a "hissing" sound, instantly rotting a small piece of land, and a foul stench emanating from the charred blackness.
"This environment is getting harder and harder." Su Ming spat, scratched his huge head with his tiger claws. Fortunately, there was [Cat's Breath], and the respiratory system automatically filtered the air rich in poisonous smoke.
The black tiger's eyes were visible, and its size was two times larger again, and its body was even more than a heavy truck. It was fine to pat the chest and say that it was "Optimus Prime".
However, the hair loss is getting worse and worse, with small pieces of light dark and tough skin exposed, which looks weird overall.
In addition, Su Ming is still looking for a source of water. He can survive by eating soil by eating soil, but it cannot get rid of the moisture.
But everything was like steaming, and many grasslands had dried up, revealing the cracked loess below, and the water source was rarely seen as precious as a miracle.
The big cat can only go west. It vaguely remembers that it stores a large amount of solid fresh water on the plateau, so it can escape from the fire. The snow in the mountains prevents the spread of the fire.
And just yesterday, Su Ming finally met the water source and other trialists who had completed the transformation.
It was a magma river, and the long red river blocked the two places. The hot and high temperature shone on a piece of red elixir, and the other side of the magma partition was a small puddle that Su Ming had dreamed of.
In addition, a group of mutated huge ants also encountered the black tiger beast unexpectedly.
Su Ming was carefully observing the other party. This was a very common colony of red ants, but each worker ant was very large than a human head. The big cat was sharp-eyed and saw a group of larger ants clustered.
Those mutated ants with sharp sickles and wings on their backs have strong combat power, their bodies are as big as cheetahs, with flying ability and strong toxicity, and their agile skills. They can tell at a glance that they are not good to share.
And in the horrifying and terrifying colony of ants crowded with a huge abdomen, a huge queen with a huge abdomen entrenched. Her black and plump abdomen looked extremely disgusting, like a caterpillar.
The body is slightly larger than the mutant worker ant, and the tail is still laying eggs continuously. The viscous liquid is secreted by a pile of white and tender eggs.
The big cat is alert to confronting the ant colony and estimates its strength in his mind.
And the ants were stunned when they saw such an exaggerated giant beast.
The ant colony has evolved initially, and the worker ants have grown strangely similar hands, holding various simple stone tools.
Seeing this, Su Ming was surprised by this evolutionary direction.
"Friends, what we do is just a source of water. The water here is enough for us to replenish, so there is no need to kill." Suddenly, a gentle and magnetic female voice echoed in the big cat's mind.
Su Ming was stunned, and then curiously looked at the bloated and disgusting queen of the ant colony, and felt "very disgusting". Did the female soul masters in the past be so wild?
The sound is very nice, but unfortunately I have grown up.
Wait, the big cat's body, which had been relaxed, was tensed again, and it looked at the queen of the ant with a vigilant look.
It didn't know why just now, but suddenly developed a kind of intimate mentality towards the queen of the ant, and even lost its basic precautions, as if it was sure that the other party decided not to hurt it.
Su Ming was horrified. When he recalled the sound transmission of the queen's heart, he realized in his heart that he met a trialist who specialized in [soul].
After observing again, Heihu discovered some details, such as the group of ants in front of him, all of whom were trialists.
That's right, they are all the same trialists. The soul power of the queen ant fills the entire clan and controls every ant, so they can make uniform expressions and actions.
Su Ming didn't know how this was done. This path was completely different from what it took. The big cat had a vague premonition that if these ants developed to the end, they might be very terrifying and would be the greatest enemy of the world.
The queen of the ant noticed the vigilance and murderous intent in the black tiger's heart, and a soft voice came into Su Ming's mind and explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't deliberately distort your emotions. This is the talented ability I pointed out, which can create a sense of affinity for all things. This is the early survival method of our ant colony."
Upon hearing this, Su Ming was silent. After weighing the pros and cons, he jumped lightly and flew through the red lava river.
Now that his qi and blood have not yet been completed, he is still a flesh and blood body, and he cannot withstand the ants' eating. The queen of the ant's mind is very restrained. Of course, she really can't beat her, and she can run away if she runs away.
The vast ant colony on the side breathed a sigh of relief. They were unwilling to fight against such giant beasts in the early stages of development. Even if they win, they would severely damage the clan and delay the maturity period.
You should know that the time wasted in the early stage should be returned a hundred times in the later stage. If it is not necessary, the queen of the ant should try not to conflict with other trialists and cherish this relatively "peaceful" environment.
When the ants are successful, it is time for the ant colony to strike hard.
The ant colony began to cross the river. They skillfully merged into a giant ball, crushing through the hot magma in a mighty way. The layer of ants outside was instantly burned into black charcoal and fell into the lava.
Fortunately, the ant colony still crossed the river easily, but the dense black and brown balls shrank in a circle.
Su Ming looked at this scene curiously, lowered his cow and drank the water source.
However, when the big cat was staring at its blurry reflection on the water, he couldn't help but be stunned.
It was like a bolt from the blue, and the black tiger was dull: "Damn, I'm actually bald!"
It looked at the baldness of a large area of light black and tough skin, and then looked at the four big words shining with [Demonic Toughness] on the panel.
Su Ming was sad. It sighed and opened the page to turn the page. The subsequent talent of demonization and resilience was relieved by the advanced [Magic Scale Armor] talent.
Now the flowing hair is only temporary, and it looks a little ugly, but when it is covered with heavy scales, the handsome big cat is back.
However, Su Ming secretly made up his mind that the next infinite wild point must be advanced first [Demonization Resilience].
Fortunately, it is now at level 14. After leaving the big snake, it encountered several out-of-control mutant creatures one after another, and it rose to level 14, not far from level 15.
Su Ming drank water, supervised the ant colony waiting quietly beside him, and casually threw the 1 free attribute point into the [Soul] attribute.
If the growth of qi and blood will automatically feed back the soul, Su Ming does not seek omnipotence, but only seeks that the other two items will not become absolute shortcomings.
Lakeside.
The two were in peace and separated after drinking the water. Heihu not only replenished the water, but also stored two entire sources of water from the stomach bags in his body.
As for the puddles that the ants touched, Su Ming didn't dare to drink them again. Who knows if the poison was released inside?
The big cat wanders in the barren purgatory, encountering some evolutionary creatures from time to time to hunt and gain experience.
After half a month, the level rose to level 16. I have to say that Su Ming's evolution efficiency became much faster after the explosion of spiritual qi.
The two free attribute points obtained are invested in [Qi and Blood] and [Magic Energy] respectively. As for 1 precious wild point, Su Ming pointed out the advanced talent [Magic Energy Scale Armor] without hesitation.
The panel properties instantly become as follows.
Race: Black Tiger
Level: Level 16
Attributes: [Qi and Blood]: 15 (Martial Arts 2), Magic Energy: 2 (Spiritual Qi 1), Soul: 4 (Vision 2)
Talent: [Cat's Breath], [Magic Scale Armor], [Spidering Stomach Bag].
roar!
Su Ming roared, roaring since this long suffocation, enduring this transformation.
The new muscle strength stretched over the bones and burst out with terrifying power. The big cat stood up and stretched its limbs, and a sour and numb feeling flowed into the bones.
In addition, a sensation of extreme hunger rose.
Su Ming couldn't help but lower his head and pulled a few weeds from the land to eat. As he ate, he felt that the taste seemed good, sweet and delicious, so let's take a few more...
So, under the dark red and dark purgatory, a giant tiger beast bent down and chewed the lawn in big mouths. It pulled out the rhizomes from the ground, swallowed them into its mouth, chewed them for a few times, and swallowed them.
Then I found that the earthy tasted good.
It's a bit like dark, bitter and mellow, and some minerals are like 'nut' particles.
He smelled it and it tasted good. Well, I was sure I could eat it, and then he started to eat the soil in big mouthfuls... From time to time, fine stones rubbed between the teeth and sparked.
In the pit, the big cat focused on eating the soil and grunting the ground. In just a few minutes, he had dug a huge pit on the ground and ate at least ten tons of soil.
But my stomach was not bloated at all, and I didn't even put a single fart.
As Su Ming ate a lot of soil, large pieces of flowing black and shiny hair on his body fell away, revealing the light black flesh. Then some fine black scales on his skin were derived, and then they surged up layer by layer, covering the whole body of the tiger beast.
Finally, it formed a dark and covered with strands of purple hard scales and carapace, which formed complex patterns, and many body tissues were covered with sharp and hard chitin tissue.
Including the four claws, even the black tiger's chin has a sharp angle, like a sharp blade, which can kill people, and its tail also generates rows of hideous black bone spurs.
There was no trace of skin on my body exposed. When I opened my mouth, two rows of hard and sharp teeth were exposed under the sharp shell. After rubbing, sparks flew out.
Su Ming transformed in just over a dozen minutes and his weight suddenly rose. The most amazing thing was that he was wearing this thick scale armor. The agility of the big cat did not decrease by half. The tiger had three axes, and the power of one pounce, one bite and one shear was even stronger.
The ability to maintain agility is attributed to [Cat's Breathing], which not only promotes the progress of breathing methods, but also innovates the physical flexibility system.
There is no doubt that before the threshold of level 15, Su Ming attracted the greatest transformation. The three talents were linked together, and quantitative change caused qualitative change.
When Su Ming woke up from endless hunger, he stared at this scene in a daze. A huge pit appeared on the ground, with uneven edges, as if he had been gnawed by a dog.
Looking at his huge body, he was almost as tall as a two-story villa. It was even more exaggerated when he stood up. He was full of giant beasts and his appearance was full of scales and could no longer see any shadow of a cat.
It makes people wonder if this is a dragon species.
The muscle mass has been greatly improved, mixed with metal components. Su Ming can now spit out any saliva and corrode a small pit.
"It seems that level 15 is a threshold for the trialists. Of course, this is the result of me focusing on one option. Others have different talents, and they will transform only at about level 20, but no matter what, before level 20, it is the final limit."
The scaled black tiger pondered, at least with its current strength, an ordinary ten thousand-year soul beast that was enough to stand side by side was about the same as the Soul King.
"Now, survival should be...it's probably fine." Su Ming thought.
At the same time, other trialists who ranked among the top in this three-level merger assessment also made their first transformation.
The blue forest is surrounded by oceans, but at this time the sea is burning with a vast sea of fire. After the volcano erupts in the entire plane, the oil field leaked somewhere.
In this way, a small part of the southern coastal area was ignited with endless red flames, accompanied by thick black smoke, coupled with a roaring tsunami, majestic tides, rising red water vapor, and a doomsday scene.
To be continued...
