Awakening The Gluttony Talent: I Become Stronger By Eating

185 Instant Healing, An Ability Like The Fearsome Beast’s!

The endless wasteland was filled with deadly silence. In that place enveloped by the poisonous gas, corpses that had turned into pieces of human skins lay strewn all over.

“This is the 235th. Who the heck did this? When I find out, I will definitely not forgive him!”

Ouyang Wen, the captain of the 6th Battalion, looked at the corpses of his own team members, as well as the GPS beacon that had dropped to the ground with a grim face.

“Captain, there’s another signal coming from the beacon at another location.” Just then, a team member reported back.

!!

“Move out immediately and rush to the location where the signal is as fast as possible!” A stern look flashed in Ouyang Wen’s eyes as he turned around with his sword. He was the first to rush to the front.

At the same time, the instant an anguished scream rang out, a tentacle retracted. Looking at the corpse with a bloody hole lying on the ground, Du Feng, standing on the shoulders of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast, said with a scornful laugh, “Number 236. Weak, too weak. I need powerful experts at the level of battalion captains to make the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast stronger.”

Moreover, a faint layer of black light had wrapped around Du Feng’s body vaguely. It was connected to the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast. As the strength of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast became greater, his own strength would also grow more powerful.

“Huh?” Suddenly, Du Feng’s brow furrowed, then he looked very pleased. “Speak of the devil!”

In the billowing poisonous gas, a human figure came charging out. When he saw the ground covered with countless corpses as well as the huge body of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast, and the man standing on that huge beast’s shoulder with a black demonic mask, Ouyang Wen roared angrily, “Du Feng, you traitor! I will slaughter you today on behalf of the military zone and the military zone’s cultivators who died so tragically in your hands!”

Du Feng looked surprised and said with a frown, “Ouyang Wen, how did you recognize me?”

Ouyang Wen said icily, “You think that by covering your face with a mask, you can fool people and get away with your crime?”

Ouyang Wen was only testing him when he uttered the earlier words. Now that Du Feng had taken the initiative to admit his identity, Ouyang Wen became even more angry.

Everything that Qin Yong said turned out to be completely true. It was this traitor who orchestrated the whole incident of the Fearsome Beasts attacking the city behind the scene.

“Since you’ve found out, there’s no point for me to hide anymore.” Annoyed, Du Feng took off his mask, revealing his sinister face. He patted the body of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast. “My little pet, this is the food I bestow on you.”

Roar! The Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast became excited instantly. It let out a loud roar and thousands of huge tentacles came stabbing instantly, blocking out the entire sky.

Ouyang Wen swung with his full strength. The aura of a Grand Master erupted and his body was as swift as lightning. Dodging numerous tentacles, he swung his sword to chop on the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast.

Bang! Several tentacles swept around and attacked from behind. Ouyang Wen sensed them and swung his sword to block them. The sword in his hand shattered straightaway, and his whole body was thrown out violently by the huge impact. He sustained serious injuries instantly.

“SS-class (simulacrum) Fearsome Beast!” Sensing the aura of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast, Ouyang Wen’s face changed drastically. “Du Feng, is this the Fearsome Beast that you manipulated to release poisonous gas?”

“It is still not qualified!” Du Feng said in a scornful voice. “But it won’t be long before it reaches that height under my nurturing.”

“Du Feng, do you know what you’re doing? You’re asking for trouble by nurturing that beast. You will end up suffering the consequences of your own actions!” Ouyang Wen yelled.

“Shut up!” Du Feng waved his hand, and countless tentacles instantly stabbed at Ouyang Wen.

In the nick of time, a ray of sword light flashed out and chopped off all these tentacles. They dropped to the ground and turned into puddles of slime.

The Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast roared out in pain. As the slime writhed at the wounds, new tentacles grew out.

“So you have regeneration ability… There are always too many things that can surprise me in this world.” An aged voice rang out.

Uncle Fu emerged from the poisonous gas fog holding a large sword. He looked at the humongous Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast and said in a low voice, “No, it should only have the ability of partial body regeneration. It is not possible for a creature that can regenerate completely and be indestructible to exist in this world.”

Sensing the aura on Uncle Fu, Du Feng’s eyes lit up. The visitor was actually a Great Grand Master. He was a more delicious type of food than the previous Ouyang Wen and would be able to allow his pet to grow faster.

“Hahaha… So it’s a Great Grand Master. You have come at the right time! Old man, since you like to stand up for other people, you can go to hell first.”

Du Feng pointed with his hand, and immediately, the thousands of tentacles from the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast changed their target and came stabbing at Uncle Fu.

What was different from before was that each tentacle was as straight as a gun, bursting out with terrifying penetrating power. Uncle Fu swung his sword. As the ray of sword light cut off the tentacles, signs of damage appeared on the blade at the same time.

Uncle Fu was shocked. This was an S-class weapon, but it was damaged under the attack of this Fearsome Beast.

“Thousand Mountains Sword Technique!”

Uncle Fu’s aura changed dramatically in an instant, becoming incredibly swift and fierce. The instant he leaped a hundred meters into the air, a sword energy as massive as a galaxy poured straight down, crashing right onto the skull of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast.

“So you want to attack its brain? But that won’t give you what you want.” Du Feng gave a disdainful laugh.

In the next moment, tentacles sprouted from the head of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast too. Those tentacles shot toward the sky to block this cascade of sword energy.

“Old man, your plan has fallen through.” Du Feng said in mockery. However, when he saw the corner of Uncle Fu’s mouth curling upwards in a smile, Du Feng’s expression changed slightly.

Following that, the big sword changed direction suddenly. It was no longer erupting with explosive sword energy. Instead, it headed straight for the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast’s shoulder, or more precisely, it headed for Du Feng standing on the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast’s shoulder in a devastating slash.

Right from the beginning, Uncle Fu’s target was Du Feng!

When Ouyang Wen saw this, he was overjoyed. No matter how powerful the Fearsome Beast was, the master controlling it was only a Grand Master. If he were killed, this SS-class (simulacrum) Fearsome Beast would also be eliminated as a matter of course.

Du Feng was greatly alarmed and hurriedly took control of the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast. Those tentacles circled back to defend, forming a ball around Du Feng, covering and protecting him inside.

However, everything was too late. The sword energy split the ball open and a gush of blood splattered out. Although Du Feng was not killed by this sword strike, his entire chest was almost cut away, revealing the macabre white bones.

“Hoho! Old man, I was too careless. I will definitely not give you such an opportunity next time.” Du Feng said maliciously.

Something unbelievable happened next. Du Feng’s chest, which was almost split open, oozed slime that was similar to that on the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast. In just ten seconds or so, the wound healed quickly, leaving only a shallow sword scar.

“Impossible!” Uncle Fu’s eyes widened in shock. “How can you, a human, have the same ability as a Fearsome Beast? No, to be precise you are no longer human, but half human and half beast!”

This was because as Du Feng’s wound healed, he emitted the aura of a Fearsome Beast. He crouched on the Thousand Tentacles Demonic Beast, gradually becoming more and more like the beast itself.
