Douluo: Evolution from the Human-Faced Demon Spider

Chapter 19 Slime Lair (Please vote for recommendation!)
It was night again, and the Star Forest was completely silent, save for the occasional bonfire lit by adventurers.

The soul beast that had been hiding in the dark for a whole day began to become active again, and Fang Chang's harvest time also arrived.

In the low bushes, a tabby cat with a soul power of eighty years poked its head out, looked around to see that there was no one around, and then it bravely slipped out.

It ran briskly along a path, jumped onto the pear tree full of fruits across the path, stretched out its furry paws, pulled off a pear and put it in its mouth.

The sweet juice from the pear went down its throat and moistened its stomach, which had been hungry for a long time, making it feel very comfortable.

Just at this moment, eight eyes with red light in the darkness in the distance had already locked onto it.

Under the cover of night, Fang Chang spread out his eight spider legs and took as light a step as possible, silently approaching the pear tree from the back.

After eating a pear, the tabby cat glanced around vigilantly, but failed to notice Fang Chang who almost blended into the night.

It turned its head and slowly stood up on the treetop, holding onto the trunk with one paw and stretching out the other paw, trying to reach the larger pear that was a little further away from it.

At this time, Fang Chang was less than half a meter away from the pear tree where he was. One of his shield-shaped front legs was placed on the trunk, and the other one was also gently lifted up.

The tabby cat stretched out its paw and finally reached the pear it had been longing for, but before it could put it in its mouth, its vision suddenly went dark.

A bloody mouth seemed to grow out of the ground and swallowed it whole, leaving it no room to react.

This was already the fifth little soul beast Fang Chang had eaten tonight. Their soul powers were not high, only a few dozen or a hundred years old, so they were extremely easy to deal with.

Fang Chang cleared his lips, feeling the tabby cat transforming into pure soul power in his body, burped, and continued on his way to find the next unlucky little guy.

Fang Chang ate and walked along the way, and before he knew it, he arrived in front of a cave.

The cave is located at the lower part of a mountain over a hundred meters high, about four or five meters higher than where Chang was standing.

A faint medicinal fragrance wafted out of the cave and drifted into Fang Chang's olfactory organ with the wind, causing his spider body to vibrate.

This tastes like slime!

Fang Chang took a half step back and activated his "Soaring Leap" skill. The entire spider body turned into a ray of black light and shot straight into the cave.

The road in the cave was winding, with many upside-down pointed stone cones hanging on the top. The deeper Fang Chang went, the stronger the medicinal fragrance became.

It seems that there is more than one slime here, and Fang Chang became even more excited.

Slimes are one of the recognized useless soul beasts on Douluo Continent, and almost no soul masters are willing to take the soul rings they transform into.

This is mainly because the soul skills carried by the slime's soul ring are mostly restorative skills.

In theory, this should be a very popular existence, especially for those auxiliary soul masters.

But the mistake is that the value of the recovery skill brought by the Slime Soul Ring is so shockingly low!
Just like Fang Chang’s extra skill of “Regeneration Level 1”, it can only restore 3 HP points in an hour!

If this were converted into the soul skills of a human soul master, it would be even weaker!
Imagine that you are an auxiliary soul master, your teammate is injured on the battlefield and is urgently waiting for treatment, and you use a soul skill with a strong aura on him.

Then, an hour passed, and his wound finally stopped bleeding; another hour passed, and his wound finally healed; another hour passed...

Thus, after several generations of soul masters' unremitting attempts, Slime was finally recognized as one of the most useless soul beasts.

There is even a saying in Douluo Continent: If you hate him, let him absorb slime.

To most soul beasts, slime is nothing more than a pool of slime-like substance without any substance. It has no flesh or branches or leaves.

It has little appeal to either carnivorous soul beasts or vegetarians.

Occasionally, some bored soul beasts would take a bite of them for fun, but most of them would spare their lives, and they would grow back after a while.

But because of this, slimes are one of the few weak soul beasts with good survival conditions, and their numbers are also exceptionally large.

It's a pity that he was once such a powerful figure in another world, but now he has fallen to this point here. The influence of the golden finger can't be said to be small.

As he was talking, Fang Chang had already entered the deepest part of the cave. At a glance, there were actually more than a dozen slimes here. The ones with strong soul power had a soul power of fifty or sixty years, while the ones with weak soul power had a soul power of less than one year.

They didn't show any reaction when they saw Fang Chang, as if they knew he would walk around here and then leave.

The slimes in the cave are so unguarded? They are much less alert than the slimes in the outside world.

Fang Chang felt helpless when he saw this scene. However, he was still happy to see the helpless rage and desperate struggle of the weak before death.

It's less fun to have prey that don't resist.

Despite this, you still have to eat what you need to eat.

He walked towards the nearest slime step by step as if he was taking a stroll in his own yard, and with a sudden stab of his spider legs, he brought it back into his mouth, and the jelly-like texture reappeared.

The other slimes were stunned when they saw their companions being eaten.

But the next moment they continued to roll around leisurely in the cave, as if nothing had ever happened.

In their eyes, as long as the big spider was full, it would no longer harm them.

Fang Chang sighed, how is this different from leeks?
But he continued to eat, one bite at a time. There were fewer and fewer slimes left, and they finally felt a little nervous.

Those slimes moved towards each other, forming a group.

But when Fang Chang walked towards them, the loose little group they had temporarily formed immediately began to waver.

At this time, they all did the same thing, using their bodies to push their companions around them as much as possible, pushing them towards the side, so as to make themselves safer.

Chang Fang naturally accepted them all and continued to eat them one by one.

When there was only one slime left in the cave, it finally panicked.

It roared and screamed, denouncing Fang Chang for his cruelty and scolding its companions for their lack of resistance.

Finally, it was eaten.

After eating the slimes, Fang Chang stretched his body and noticed a strange spring in the cave.

The medicinal fragrance came from here. The spring water was extremely viscous, and there seemed to be a few slimes slowly taking shape inside.

Oh my god, this is where these slimes come from.

Fang Chang did not choose to destroy the spring water, but silently memorized the location of the cave.

In his previous life, he had been to a southwestern province where wild mushrooms were abundant. There was an unwritten rule among the local mountain farmers.

You can only cut off the flesh of wild mushrooms without destroying their root cells, so that you can pick them again next time.
