As Bai Zhe observed the sable ahead, the animal suddenly snapped to attention and turned to look at Bai Zhe behind it.
Startled, the sable swiftly swam toward the shore, trying to escape.
Bai Zhe naturally would not let it succeed.
Sables are very agile. If it entered the forest, with their speed, Bai Zhe couldn't catch it.
But in this pool, although the sable was agile, it was no match for him.
Thinking this, Bai Zhe suddenly lunged forward like an arrow and bit the sable's hind leg.
At the same time, venom flowed into the sable's flesh and blood.
"Squeak!"
The sable screamed miserably. Its swimming speed increased, but when it reached the pool's edge, the venom had already taken full effect. Its strength diminished, and it began to sink slowly underwater.
At this moment, Bai Zhe swam over, dragged the sable's body to shore, and swallowed it after its death.
"This time I should be able to evolve."
Lying in the cave, Bai Zhe flicked his tongue and licked his lips. He suddenly realized that previously he had been just short of enough Evolution Points to evolve.
Now after swallowing the sable, once it digested, he would reach the required Evolution Points.
He had been so angry at the sable for stealing fish earlier that he forgot this important matter. Now awakened, he couldn't help but feel excited.
After being reborn as a snake, nothing made him happier than evolving. Only by continuous evolution could his strength improve and survive better in the cold and harsh wild.
Bai Zhe waited, and about twenty minutes later, a notification sounded in his mind: "Ding, Host gained 180 Evolution Points."
He felt uplifted and waited quietly again.
The system prompted again:
[Enough Evolution Points obtained. Host evolution conditions met.]
[This evolution will take ten minutes. Please ensure the surrounding environment is safe.]
[Do you want to initiate evolution?]
Without hesitation, Bai Zhe thought: "Evolve!"
As soon as he finished thinking, a burning sensation appeared over his body, marking the start of his evolution.
His body lightly rubbed against the cave walls. After ten minutes, the burning sensation disappeared, and he shed a layer of skin.
Looking at the shed skin behind him, Bai Zhe couldn't help but feel excited.
"Evolution complete. System, open my attribute panel."
Impatient, Bai Zhe said this mentally. At once, a light screen appeared in his mind.
Host Attributes:
Evolution Level: 7
Evolution Points: 125/6000
Skill Points: 8
Body Length: 3.0 m
Skills: Venomous Fangs (3/5), Phosphorus Armor Resistance (2/5), Fast Digestion (2/5)
Fame Points: 48,214
...
As expected, after evolving, his body length reached 3 meters, just as he had predicted, making him a large Forest Anaconda in the wild.
Besides that, all other attributes improved to varying degrees, which thrilled Bai Zhe—it meant his strength was increasing.
"Skill Points reached 8, just enough to upgrade 'Phosphorus Armor Resistance' once."
His eyes landed on the Skill Points section. Without hesitation, he spent all eight points on "Phosphorus Armor Resistance."
After this operation, the value of that skill changed to 3/5.
At the same time, his Defense value increased from 9.0 to 14.0, a full 5-point rise.
"Huh, my Fame Points also increased to over 48,000."
Suddenly, Bai Zhe noticed the change in Fame Points and was surprised. He hadn't checked his attributes for days and hadn't realized his Fame Points had reached this level.
Unfortunately, although his Fame Points increased by over 30,000, to gain more Skill Points he needed 100,000 Fame Points. He was still quite far from that threshold.
But Bai Zhe wasn't discouraged. Everything was moving in the right direction.
"There will be opportunities."
He said this to himself and pushed away distractions, then fell into sleep to save energy for tomorrow's struggles.
"Coo! Coo!"
In a dense forest, several large birds suddenly flew out in panic.
Behind them, a three-meter-long Forest Anaconda swiftly chased along the branches.
[Target locked: Great Gray Woodpecker! Each devoured individual grants 80 Evolution Points.]
The birds fleeing ahead were Great Gray Woodpeckers, large gray woodpeckers about fifty centimeters long.
They are resident birds and do not migrate seasonally, often appearing in groups of four to six in trees.
There were five Great Gray Woodpeckers in front of Bai Zhe.
This was the third day after Bai Zhe's Evolution Level reached 7. In the first three days, he roamed the barren forest and hunted around ten hares and many field mice.
Additionally, he ambushed a small wild boar near the pool beneath his cave.
These creatures provided him over two thousand Evolution Points. By now, his total was 2,410.
To avoid scaring away prey by staying in one place too long, Bai Zhe changed his hunting ground today.
He came to a dense forest area on the cave's left side.
When he first arrived, he saw these Great Gray Woodpeckers. Bai Zhe remembered eating several Great Gray Woodpecker eggs near the big pine tree before.
As he pursued them, the distance between him and the five woodpeckers gradually decreased.
Though Great Gray Woodpeckers can fly, their flight is awkward. They need time to gain momentum for takeoff, and the dense canopy limits their flying space.
Therefore, these five woodpeckers were running hard ahead, flapping their wings mainly to keep balance.
With a "whoosh,"
Bai Zhe suddenly accelerated, becoming a blur and quickly catching up to a Great Gray Woodpecker, biting its leg.
"Coo!"
The bird screamed and flapped its wings several times, lifting about ten centimeters before falling to the ground.
Bai Zhe ignored this bird, flashing his figure to pounce on another Great Gray Woodpecker.
After biting two, Bai Zhe paused.
