Chapter 35

As carnivores, Nine-Tailed the fox and the wind wolf naturally wouldn’t be like Ox Demon, which could satisfy its appetite by eating some grass.

To them, hunting wild beasts was inevitable.

And because of this, Lin Meng also let these guys bring their prey back.

As for the reason, it didn’t need to be said.

Thinking of this, Lin Meng’s heart skipped a beat.

Shua shua shua!

Five consecutive sounds pierced through the air and the branches grew with the wind.

In an instant, they actually turned into five long sharp swords.

Slash, slash!

Before they could react, the four wind wolves and Nine-Tailed the fox’s remaining prey had all died.

Ding-dong! “You killed a Level 2 Mutant Porcupine. Evolution Points +20.”

Ding-dong! “You killed a Level 1 Mutant Hare. Evolution Points +10.”

…

The crisp sound of the system notification rang in Lin Meng’s ears, causing his smile to become even wider.

Perfect.

It was perfect.

He raised his eyes and looked at Nine-Tailed the fox and the wind wolf who were already eating at the entrance of the canyon.

Looking at the 60 evolution points that he had gained, Lin Meng felt that there was no wiser decision than this.

He only needed to make these guys not kill their prey immediately when they were hunting.

Then, they could bring them back and kill all of them to become his evolution points.

Ah, he had to admit that this idea was really wise.

Until now, because of this decision, Lin Meng had already obtained 120 evolution points from these pets.

In addition to what he had left, his evolution points had reached 172 points.

What was worth mentioning here was that perhaps it was due to the process of spiritual energy recovery.

There were more and more mutated beasts.

Even the prey that they casually killed had almost reached entry level 1.

Of course, this definitely couldn’t be compared to the beasts around Lin Meng’s willow tree.

In just a few days, even the white crane beside Lin Meng had used the water from small spirit lake that Lin Meng had personally created to reach level 2.

Not to mention, the little golden monkey had also picked up the willow leaves that Lin Meng had dropped on the ground in addition to the water from the spirit lake.

He took a bite.

With that, the little monkey had already entered level 3.

He had also awakened a very good innate talent—extreme absorption.

Compared to ordinary mutated beasts, his body could absorb more powerful substances to strengthen his body.

It would speed up his evolution.

In other words, with the passage of time, the body of the golden monkey would become harder and harder.

Until one day, his body would be harder than steel.

Of course, this was the ideal state.

However, overall, the extreme absorption was a good innate talent.

It was not much weaker than his super regeneration.

In fact, from a certain point of view, the golden monkey’s innate talent was more conducive to combat.

However, the most suitable one was the strongest.

Compared to its innate talent, extreme absorption, Lin Meng preferred his super regeneration.

With this innate talent, Lin Meng could freely extend his branches.

Even the roots that he hid underground grew rapidly and extended even longer.

…

At this moment, Lin Meng’s field of vision was raised and he looked at the entrance of the canyon.

Squatting on the ground was Nine-Tailed the fox whose fur was as red as fire. Lin Meng smiled.

Nine-Tailed the fox was sitting on its hind legs with its ears erect. Although there were fresh drops from its mouth, it did not look ferocious.

On the contrary, it gave people a bloody sense of beauty.

On the contrary, the wind wolves were eating in big mouthfuls.

As they ate, they would look around vigilantly from time to time.

Without comparison, there would be no harm.

With comparison, the wind wolve’s eating was naturally much more pathetic.

“In the future, try to let these pets eat some cooked food, or teach them how to eat elegantly.”

After thinking about it, Lin Meng also had this idea.

As his subordinate mutated beasts, they naturally couldn’t look ugly when they ate meat like normal beasts.

Along with their strength, their intelligence would also increase correspondingly.

However, Lin Meng didn’t want their intelligence to be purely used in battle.

Only by allowing them to display their intelligence in more fields could they develop their intelligence to the greatest extent.

And some of the human’s customs and culture could greatly develop their intelligence.

Here, it also revealed some of Lin Meng’s ambitions.

As a treant, the hope of coexisting with humans was too small.

It was almost impossible.

Lin Meng was familiar with the bloody history of human development, especially the colonization and wars.

A race that could even slaughter its own race without hesitation, would you expect them to pity a different race?

Moreover, it was a willow tree?

Even if some people were willing, in the face of most people’s decisions, they could only follow the general trend.

Moreover, if you were to put yourself in their shoes, as a race that stood at the peak of the natural world, would you hope that other races would threaten your position?

No one would hesitate, right.

Because, this was not a matter of one person, but of tens of millions of people.

Pity at this time would only push the human race into a pit of fire.

Lin Meng also understood that not only did he have no other choice, but even the humans also would not have too many choices.

Between races, there was no right or wrong.

There was only an eternal struggle between the strong and the weak.

…

Unless one day, Lin Meng’s strength made the humans fear him, otherwise, he would not have the right to speak.

And this was the so-called, “If you are strong enough, the world will be gentle to you.”

If you want others to be gentle to you, you have to be strong enough to make them fear you.

And before you are strong enough, what can you do?

Wait?

No.

Absolutely not.

Lin Meng was not good at waiting.

Before he was strong enough, what he had to do was to hide and develop his pets.

Then he could strengthen his own power.

Just like humans, small individuals could be slaughtered by mutated beasts at will.

But if they banded together, they would be the most terrifying race in the world.

Lin Meng had the same thought.

He wanted Lin Meng’s own ability to build an empire that belonged to him.

In this way, even if humans noticed his existence…

They would fall into real hesitation due to various misgivings.

The worst outcome would be to start a racial war.

With tens of millions of beast hordes attracting the attention of the humans and, at that time, Lin Meng could also hide behind the scenes.

Here, it had to be said that Lin Meng was a little selfish.

But for him, who had to live a new life, selfishness was necessary.

He was not so great that he would sacrifice himself to help others.

At the end of the day, Lin Meng was just a lucky man.

Reborn into a willow tree.

And now, he was just fighting to survive.
