The bats in the forest were a glossy black, covered in a layer of soft fuzz. They had small, round heads with two large ears, beneath which their tiny eyes were shut tight. Their teeth were especially remarkable, featuring two sharp fangs like a tiger's and a row of fine, pointed teeth below, just like a movie vampire's.
'So, what's this? They want to suck my blood?'
Tu Xiao'an's gaze was cold and placid, yet it held a lofty disdain. 'So they want to use my shedding as a chance to ambush , is that it?'
A continuous stream of bats flew out from deep within the forest. Their numbers were simply staggering.
The night belonged to the swarm of bats. They had co out en masse to forage, but they were srized by the light bursting from a crack in the Silver White Snake's skin.
One bat arrived ahead of the rest, flying above the large Silver White Snake. As it bathed in the faint golden light, it imdiately let out a series of joyful chirps.
Tu Xiao'an understood at once. 'The light bursting from my body is what attracted them. It seems to hold an irresistible allure for them.'
In the blink of an eye, dozens of bats were circling above Tu Xiao'an.
'Hmph. You're looking for death.'
Tu Xiao'an's serpentine eyes narrowed. 'Envelop them with my Consciousness!'
The space around him instantly trembled as a Formless power surged out, enveloping all the bats circling overhead.
'Explode!'
The mont he gave the ntal command, the dozens of bats were instantly filled with terror. Fear showed in their eyes as they felt the Death God beckoning to them.
BOOM... BOOM... BOOM...
A horrifying scene unfolded. In an instant, dozens of bats exploded, turning into clouds of blood and flesh that rained down from the sky.
Dozens of faint currents appeared in the air, gathering strand by strand and flowing into the Silver White Snake's body.
These currents were the life force of the animals—Tu Xiao'an's Energy Value.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for killing a Level 3 bat. You have gained 100 Energy Value."
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for killing a Level 4 bat. You have gained 150 Energy Value."
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for killing a Level 4 bat. You have gained 150 Energy Value."
...
The system notifications rang out one after another. Tu Xiao'an laughed happily. 'So they're just here to deliver Energy Value to ? In that case, I'm more than happy to welco them.'
But the real show was yet to co. Those few dozen bats were just a drop in the bucket. A massive swarm had already arrived, circling collectively above Tu Xiao'an. They bathed in the light, ecstatic, completely oblivious to their impending doom.
'Envelop them with my Consciousness.'
Tu Xiao'an looked up and unleashed a powerful wave of his Consciousness Power, completely enveloping the swarm of bats gathered overhead.
'Holy cow. There must be over a thousand of them within the range of my Consciousness.'
It had to be said that his improvent after reaching Level 10 was enormous. The combination of the Giant Snake Gene's modifications and the system's boons had completely transford him, especially when it ca to the strength of his Consciousness Power.
Enveloping a thousand bats at once was a feat that would have been utterly impossible for him before.
At that mont, it was as if ti in the dense forest had been frozen. In an instant, all one thousand bats stiffened, as if they had been caught by a Freezing Technique.
'Perfect. A chance to test out my newest ultimate move.'
Killing Intent flared from Tu Xiao'an like a hurricane. His serpentine eyes narrowed. 'Consciousness Outburst!'
The space above him trembled violently as a Heaven Shocking Power erupted. It felt as if space itself was about to shatter, and a series of fierce explosions imdiately followed.
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOOOM...
A massacre unfolded. The bodies of the bats, frozen mid-air, suddenly exploded, turning into a bloody mist that filled the sky. One after another, they burst in a chain reaction. It was as if a torrential blood rain was falling, filling the entire forest with a sickening stench of blood.
Over a thousand bats died in a collective explosion.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have successfully advanced to Level 11."
'Aweso. This feels fucking aweso.'
KRAK...
His Snake Skin began to crack open. KRAK, KRAK, KRAK. With every new fissure, a ray of faint golden light burst forth in a miraculous display.
As his Snake Skin continued to fissure, the light bursting from his body grew ever more intense. Deep within the forest, countless animals began to move as if summoned by a Divine Spirit. They stampeded across the ground in dense throngs, while flocks of Flying Birds blotted out the sky.
The dense forest had turned into a veritable zoo. Countless animals appeared in an instant, greedily converging in the direction of the Silver White Snake.
Small insects, small animals, Flying Birds—all sorts of creatures. It was a terrifying and unbelievable sight.
'Holy shit...'
Tu Xiao'an was dumbfounded. 'Isn't this a bit over the top? Are they all here for so kind of animal convention?'
'No... hehe, they're here to provide with Energy Value.'
"Co on! The more, the better! This Snake King welcos all cors!"
The Silver White Snake opened its gaping maw and roared. It was as if a symphony of death had begun to play throughout the dense forest.
Countless faint currents of energy appeared in the air, gathering strand by strand and flowing into Tu Xiao'an's body.
His Energy Value skyrocketed continuously.
At the sa ti, his body began to grow at an explosive rate as his Snake Skin cracked open all over.
A 6-ter Giant Snake.
A 7-ter Giant Snake.
Ding! You have advanced to Level 12.
An 8-ter Giant Snake.
Four-fifths of his Snake Skin had now cracked open.
In the forest, countless animals appeared. Now, even various large animals were stampeding over, eager to bathe in the light bursting from Tu Xiao'an's body.
'They must all die...'
Ding! You have advanced to Level 13.
A 9-ter Giant Snake.
Eventually, Tu Xiao'an grew numb to it all. His Level was soaring like a rocket, and his serpentine body was growing at an unrestrained pace.
He was now experiencing the sa thrill the Vampire Snake must have felt. He rembered watching in the lab as the Vampire Snake's aura grew more and more intense, becoming just as terrifying as this.
However, while Tu Xiao'an's Level seed to be increasing rapidly, it still fell short of the Vampire Snake's. But for him, every single level up represented a qualitative leap in power.
In the dense forest, the symphony of death played on. Ti passed quickly as countless creatures died.
「Early morning...」
When the first rays of dawn pierced the thin mist and shone upon the forest, a ten-ter-long Giant Snake, which had been lying prone on the ground, suddenly shot upwards. It roared at the sky, as if to welco the brand new day.
His system data appeared.

Evolutionary Energy Value: 1,000/100,000

Talent 2: dominance ability

Tu Xiao'an stared at his newly updated stats, hardly daring to believe his eyes. 'This isn't just a small improvent; it's a massive leap.'
A single night had passed, and he was already Level 15. 'My God, that's terrifying.'
Ten ters. He had transford from a venomous snake just over a ter long into a terrifying, ten-ter venomous Giant Snake.
Moreover, his physical strength and Consciousness Power had both increased by an unimaginable degree. His entire body surged with explosive power.
With a light flick of his thick, powerful tail, the ground rumbled. The earth was torn asunder, and a massive fissure appeared.
'Strong. I'm so strong.' He felt that even a building would seem like it was made of plastic before him, sothing he could destroy with ease.
