Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf

For the third Genetic Barrier, Su Lin decided to test it with these Flora Spirits.

With this thought in mind, he did not hesitate too much, and after using an Evolution Potion, he took out more than ten types of exotic plants stored in the cave to consume.

The first one was a two to three-meter tall, ink-black poisonous mushroom.

This ink-black poisonous mushroom was Level Thirty, and it contained toxins potent enough to bring down a New Species.

Therefore, despite having pure energy within it, no Exotic Beast in the Southern Territory Mountains had ever consumed it, because it had lived there for a very long time.

However, during Su Lin's previous slaughter of the Fourteen Kings of Beasts, it was damaged by the residual energy and had its foundations hurt, which led to it being collected and brought back to the cave.

Otherwise, Su Lin would not have wanted to consume those Exotic Flowers and Rare Herbs that still had potential for growth.

At this moment, Su Lin's wolf maw directly swallowed the two to three-meter ink-black poisonous mushroom in two or three bites.

The venom on the ink-black poisonous mushroom had no effect on Su Lin, who was immune to all poisons.

As he chewed with big gulps, the Healing Talent he was using evaporated the venom into streams of black smoke that dispersed into the air.

Moments later, once inside his stomach, it turned into rolling energy and Evolution Points under the influence of the Mysterious Devouring Force,

and a light gray notification prompt popped up in front of him.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming the Variant Fungal Species Black Poison Mushroom and gaining 60 Evolution Essences."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming the Variant Fungal Species Black Poison Mushroom and gaining 59 Evolution Essences."

....

Su Lin gained more than one notification of Evolution Points for devouring an entire ink-black poisonous mushroom.

Dozens of messages concerning Evolution Points flashed before his eyes in succession.

Just one unevolved ink-black poisonous mushroom provided Su Lin with thousands of Evolution Essences at once. Simultaneously, the genetic fragments of the black poisonous mushroom also turned into fuel, hastening Su Lin's Genetic Metamorphosis. This caused a thrilling gleam to flash across Su Lin's pair of wolf eyes.

With the lure of a huge amount of Evolution Points and the speeding up of Genetic Metamorphosis, Su Lin could no longer restrain his desire to continue consuming the remaining exotic plants.

The second plant was a spruce Exotic Tree.

This time, Su Lin, in order to gain the maximum Evolution Points, directly chose to consume the most essential parts of the spruce Exotic Tree.

As for the remaining spruce branches, they could be rewarded to his Wolf Pack in the future.

Currently, as he consumed, the light gray notification of Evolution Points kept flashing in front of Su Lin.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming the spruce Exotic Tree and gaining 90 Evolution Essences."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming the spruce Exotic Tree and gaining 89 Evolution Essences."

...

As he fed, time quietly slipped by.

Su Lin was unable to finish consuming all ten-plus exotic plants in one day,

and he spent the following several days silently feeding and digesting the pure energy and genetic fragments of these exotic plants in the cave.

This caused Su Lin's Evolution Points to accumulate rapidly, and he could faintly sense the pace of his Genetic Metamorphosis accelerating significantly.

This feeling of growing stronger was truly gratifying to him from the bottom of his heart.

During this period, Exotic Beasts like the Silver Ringed Pit Viper, Black Rat, Bai Die, and the species under his command all steadily increased their strength by consuming the large quantities of pure flesh Su Lin allocated to them.

The Silver Ringed Pit Viper, which had reached Level Thirty-Seven three months ago, was a New Species that had survived the Southern Territory Mountains by experiencing many frays, thus it had gathered enough to advance again.

Through consuming the flesh of New Species allocated by the Wolf King, it had risen to the peak of Level Thirty-Seven and was on the cusp of reaching Level Thirty-Eight.

The Level Thirty-Five Black Rat had reached Level Thirty-Six, and its originally fifteen to sixteen-meter frame had become even larger, reaching seventeen to eighteen meters.

The Black Rat's combat power was considered mid to low amongst the New Species,

but it was very wise, being the first King Beast to submit to Su Lin.

The Black Rat possessed extremely strong ambush capabilities and one major Healing Talent plus two auxiliary talents.

Especially the Holy Light Blessing Talent, which at just A+ Level, could enhance the attributes of several members,

Meanwhile, it significantly expedited the recovery ability during battle and also had effects that could weaken poison and curse attacks.

In earlier tests, when the Holy Light Blessing talent was added solely to Su Lin, it could enhance Su Lin's overall attributes by a full twenty percent.

Su Lin's strength far surpassed that of the Black Rat, and the mere twenty percent enhancement was enough to reveal the heaven-defying nature of this talent.

Keep in mind that when the Flying Squirrel King Beast unleashed its three major curse-type talents, it only managed to reduce Su Lin's strength by twenty to thirty percent.

Exotic beasts like the Black Rat and Flying Squirrel, with auxiliary and curse-type talents, often don't dominate through raw power. In battles of the same level, having such an auxiliary can often turn the tides.

Especially the Black Rat, whose other auxiliary talent was a clan-based one, could fully affect its own subordinate Rat Tide.

It made its subordinates fight more fiercely and bloodthirstily, and its saliva had great corrosive properties.

This clan-based talent was similar to that of the Gold-patterned Traveling Rat encountered previously on the Arctic Tundra.

However, both the Black Rat and its subordinate Rat Tide were stronger than the Gold-patterned Traveling Rat and Rat Tide from the Arctic Tundra.

One could imagine the magnificent scene when millions of Rats surged under the direction of this talent.

Next up was Bai Die, possessing only Level Thirty-three in strength attribute.

During this period, in order to unify many exotic beasts within the Southern Territory Mountains, it naturally went through numerous battles. Coupled with the supply of new species flesh, it broke through to Level Thirty-four.

Though its level was the lowest among the three new species, its combat power was in no way inferior.

With its Four Great Spiritual Talents, once it truly went berserk, even the Silver Ringed Pit Viper would have to avoid its sharp edge.

As for the species each commanded, after the large-scale distribution of Variant Species Flesh, they too had notably enhanced their strength.

Most notably, the Evil Tiger rose to prominence, advancing from Level Thirty-three to the peak of Thirty-four and starting to transform into a new species.

The Evil Tiger possessed a talent that made it increasingly valiant the longer it fought, and should its transformation succeed, its combat power would not be underestimated.

While the improvements of other exotic beasts weren't as conspicuous as that of the Evil Tiger, they all were steadily advancing.

Bai Die also impelled its subordinates to breed large herbivores and wild boars, which were penned and tended to by designated exotic beasts.

Among the large herbivores and wild boars, those that evolved into exotic beasts with high growth potential were absorbed into Bai Die's subordinates,

while those with lesser potential continued to be raised as food.

Regarding the various Exotic Flowers and Rare Herbs as well as the Giant Trees, some were already assigned exotic beasts as guardians.

Because, per the Wolf King's instructions, this batch of Exotic Flowers, Rare Herbs, and Giant Trees would become the source of pure energy for the Wolf Pack.

Now, with the unification of the Southern Territory Mountains and the cessation of inter-species predation, the entire mountain range bathed in a peaceful ambiance.

And amidst this tranquility, Su Lin was still in the cave, calmly devouring Exotic Plants as he strived for the third Genetic Metamorphosis.

If not for the supremely pure and surging Vitality of Flora from the Flora Spirits, he had the feeling that once he devoured it, his strength would undergo an earth-shattering enhancement, and he might even be able to leverage it for a breakthrough in the third Genetic Metamorphosis!

At this time, Su Lin stood tall and mighty amid a chaotic Southern Territory Mountains painted with fresh blood, his immense wolf body dripping red.

The peerless aura that rose from his being sent shivers of awe through everyone who felt it.

Currently on his wolf body, there were several corroded wounds, tinged with the green Vitality of Flora — a gift left by the Flora Spirits.

Yet, under the operation of the Healing Talent, they were slowly recovering.

Su Lin once again activated all his Extreme Senses to search the area for hundreds of miles around, and only after realizing that he had truly lost the scent of the Flora Spirits, did his intense desires for Hunting and feeding begin to subside.

But he still remembered the Flora Spirits,

wondering whether it was a sign from the Theological Alliance instructing the Lophis Family to dismantle the Alliance between the Wolf Pack and Great Russia.

After all, if the Arctic Wolf King and his Wolf Pack truly formed an offensive and defensive alliance with Great Russia, it would mean a substantial enhancement of the human camps' strength!

And it would have profound subsequent impacts!

Considering this, the Wolf Pack threat theory promoted by the Lophis Family not only failed to affect them but instead solidified the top echelons of Great Russia's decision to pursue an alliance with the Wolf Pack even more.

Because this was exactly what the Theological Alliance feared!

With the support of this alliance with the Wolf Pack, even the Apocalyptic Godspeed Golden Eagle would have to think thrice before invading Great Russia!

After all, the Arctic Wolf King was also of Apocalyptic Level, and judging by his solo conquest of twelve King-level Exotic Beasts and two hundred Monster Level Mutated Creatures in the Southern Territory Mountains, his combat prowess was likely among the strongest in the Apocalyptic Variant Species!
