"Forget it, I'll test the amulet tomorrow during simulation."
Jiang Tian abandoned swallowing the amulet and tossed it at his feet.
"Li Feng, you should devour your old body for a substantial boost."
Jiang Tian pointed to the blackened corpse in the Underground Palace.
"Okay, Boss!"
Li Feng agreed without hesitation.
His eagerness to grow was great despite being an ant now.
He had died due to weakness and a surprise attack.
Now resurrected, he desperately wanted to grow stronger.
Seeing hope in Jiang Tian—a mere ant with human wisdom and skills—was incredible.
More importantly, he knew this was a world of miracles.
Though weak now, opportunities would make him stronger.
"Maybe one day I'll surpass my former power and become even stronger!"
A strange hope blossomed within him.
...
Li Feng descended into the Underground Palace and without hesitation began chewing his former body.
As an ant, his old body was useless—better to use it to strengthen himself.
"Eat!"
"Only by eating can I grow!"
Li Feng bit chunks from the corpse, transforming food into energy through the Insectoid Race's talent.
He felt the energy enhancing his body, some converting into familiar lightning power.
Blue lightning sparked on his shell, making his brown hair stand erect.
At this moment, three prompts appeared before him.
[Congratulations on evolving to Level 1. Upon reaching Level 1, you unlock the experience channel. Killing monsters grants experience; gaining enough levels you up.]
[Each Level 1 increase adds one point to your four attributes.]
[Your body is now fully datafied; all values are concrete.]
Li Feng's body evolved to a Level 1 monster under the energy stimulation.
"Reached Level 1?"
"Can I kill monsters to level up???"
He smiled broadly, unaware his easy progression was thanks to Jiang Tian.
Without Jiang Tian's Insect Nest Overlord talent, Li Feng would have little chance of reaching Level 1.
Upon leveling, some experience gained from kills would go to Li Feng, some fed back to Jiang Tian.
...
Li Feng's energy shifted mostly into lightning power.
Blue lightning flickered on his shell.
His cells dyed blue, signaling a gene mutation.
He was undergoing a transformation.
Li Feng noticed his faster digestion and increased eating speed.
"Crunch!"
"Crunch!"
"Crunch!"
...
He swallowed charred meat chunks, instantly broken down and absorbed.
The Corpse King's flesh visibly vanished, leaving only the skeleton.
Li Feng's power increased, with lightning feedback felt by Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian sensed his own strength growing.
...
As Li Feng devoured the Corpse King, the brown hair turned fully blue.
A prompt appeared before him.
[Species tier upgrading, maintain energy input.]
"Tier upgrading?"
Li Feng was puzzled but knew it would bring great benefits.
His problem: his corpse was gone and no high-energy items nearby to consume.
At this moment, Jiang Tian's voice came from above.
"Eat these!"
Jiang Tian tossed down a metal fragment and three green stones, along with the Corpse King's small bone.
Li Feng felt strong energy fluctuations from the items.
"Thanks, Boss!"
Li Feng sincerely thanked Jiang Tian.
He then swallowed the items, blue lightning bursting forth.
"Crackle!"
The lightning struck nearby objects, blackening them, but was quickly absorbed by Li Feng.
His entire body turned blue.
[Congratulations on advancing to the Excellent Tier template. You have gained the new species name—Volt Ant.]
[Congratulations on acquiring the talent—Lightning Body, current level Elite. Devouring top-tier lightning treasures allows further advancement.]
[Congratulations on learning skills—Lightning Orb, Lightning Talisman, Lightning Wrap. Current skill levels: Lightning Orb Level 7, Lightning Talisman Level 8, Lightning Wrap Level 6.]
