Chapter 296 - 176: Brushing Past, Coming Back To Life_3
It was rare to see a Level 9 Giant Beast engaged in a covert attack, as their bodies had undergone almost a complete change, and they no longer needed to hunt for food.
Once normal mutated creatures reached Level 7, their bodies would gradually undergo a qualitative change under the influence of their gifted powers, such as the metal giant beast encountered previously.
Similarly, creatures like the Single-horned Tiger Whale and Deep Sea Dragon Turtle actually had little reliance on the flesh and blood of mutated creatures.
Most of the time, they absorbed energy from heaven and earth for their consumption and purified their bloodlines to grow.
After reaching Level 8, the physical change would become even more pronounced. The flesh and blood of the Fire Giant Beast would largely crystallize into magma, and the rock-type creatures’ bodies would transform into Vajra-like rocks.
Of course, this elemental transformation was merely a description, and they still possessed the characteristics of living flesh and blood.
Among these mutated creatures, the Thunderflame Behemoth was one of a kind, just as Jack Clark’s body was different from conventional cultivators.
Capable of rapid growth through devouring, it had a strong demand for the biological energy of flesh and blood, requiring several times its body size worth of mutated creatures per day.
It would digest these foods into biological energy to supply its body’s growth and evolution.
This was also the reason why its strength had increased so rapidly — its digestion capabilities were too strong, almost like the talent for devouring.
So, it was highly likely that the human satellite had discovered it and was monitoring it from the sky; otherwise, the faint unease with no discernible origin was unexplainable.
Moreover, Jack Clark knew that human satellites monitored global mutated creatures.
As many material challenges were overcome, human military technology was becoming more and more advanced, not only in weapons, but high-definition satellites have almost covered the whole world.
It seemed that he had to be more careful in the future and only appear on the sea surface at night when there were clouds.
In the midst of pondering this, the Thunderflamc Behemoth dragged the corpse of the ancient giant crocodile beast to the seaside and disappeared with a splash beneath the sea surface.
After all, it wouldn’t trust its own safety to others. Although its original form was human.
Deep within the Cloud Mist Mountain Range.
Boom!
With a ground-shaking tremor, a 32-mcter-long Mutated Beast resembling a Tyrannosaurus Rex but more ferocious slammed into the ground amidst the enveloping mist.
Its chest scale armor was broken, pierced by a massive bloody hole three meters in diameter. Just as its scorching hot blood was about to gush out like a fountain, a surge of black Demonic Qi blocked it.
Wearing black armor and surrounded by swirling black smoke, Mikus walked in front of the corpse, and the tail behind him hissed like a poisonous python, piercing through the Unique Beast’s corpse.
Omm! With the surge of black Demonic Qi, Mikus devoured and absorbed the visible blood energy along with his tail, growing stronger.
As the flesh and essence were devoured, the speed at which the Unique Beast’s corpse withered was visible to the naked eye.
In just over ten minutes, the corpse of the Level 6 Mutant Beast appeared dim and lifeless like it had been dead for half a year, giving off a putrid smell.
It was only then that Mikus, now a great deal more powerful, retracted his tail with satisfaction.
Just then, a shadow emerged from the trees behind him and knelt on one knee, respectfully saying, “Sir.”
Mikus slowly turned around and looked at the Shadow Divine Church Infiltrator hidden beneath the black robe, saying indifferently, “So, what’s the news from Cooper?”
The black-robed man respectfully answered, “Ilisa Wesley has been wandering around the mountain range aimlessly since leaving, apparently with no particular purpose. She ignored two Federal Geniuses she encountered.” “However, as the distance increases, Cooper will have some difficulty transmitting information.”
“What are those madmen of the Eternal God Church thinking all day long?” Mikus frowned slightly, then asked solemnly, “What are the others doing?” “The others haven’t exhibited anything unusual; they followed your orders and hunted mutated creatures and devoured Essence Blood to recover from their injuries within a range of tens of kilometers.”
Mikus nodded slightly, “I see. You may leave.”
After the Shadow God Sect follower had left, Mikus looked at the ’dried-up’ corpse of the Mutated Beast in front of him, and the armor on his left arm slowly cracked open.
Subsequently, Mikus took a deep breath, and his right fingertips tore through his left arm like a sharp blade, digging out a mass of wriggling black flesh with dense roots from his blood and flesh.
Ah! As the black flesh was pulled out, a piercing, ear-splitting spiritual scream erupted.
Hiss!
An invisible spiritual impact made even Mikus’s face turn pale. Enduring the headache, he decisively threw the black flesh onto the wound of the Mutated Beast’s corpse.
Upon smelling the somewhat rotten stench of the flesh, the black flesh soon squirmed like a living thing, quickly burrowing deep into the corpse of the Mutated Beast.
Bam!
The corpse of the long-dead Mutated Beast suddenly convulsed, as its body continued to tremble and struggle with growing intensity.
Glancing at the now-reactive Mutated Beast’s corpse after a successful parasitic takeover, Mikus’s eyes revealed a hint of disgust, and he vanished into the mist..
