Douluo Continent: I am a Hyperion larva, and I devour Xiao Wu at the start.

Chapter 28 Foolish! Killing you wouldn't make you mine either!

At this moment, the queen bee still had her last breath, after all, she was one of only two winged bees of the 10,000-year age besides the queen bee.

Queen bees are quite resilient.

But this powerful vitality brought him a painful end.

The queen bee could only watch helplessly as Jiang Chen grabbed her with his claws and slowly moved closer to the glowing crystal on Jiang Chen's abdomen.

Finally, the queen bee's consciousness remained at the moment she was absorbed by Jiang Chen.

When Jiang Chen absorbed a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, he felt that the difference between it and a thousand-year-old one was truly enormous.

Although it had previously absorbed Yao Chen's martial soul power, it was still at the level of a 20,000-year-old soul beast.

But that's just energy, and it's different from what a real soul beast absorbs.

That's because the feeling of pleasure it brought to Jiang Chen was different.

After absorbing the queen bee, Jiang Chen headed towards the few guard bees that had fallen to the ground.

These few guard bees are only a few thousand years old, a far cry from the queen bee who is tens of thousands of years old.

So when Jiang Chen arrived here, all the guard bees were already dead.

Four deep purple millennium soul rings spun continuously on the corpse of the Guardian Bee.

Fortunately, these guard bees hadn't been dead for too long, and their spirit rings still existed and hadn't disappeared.

Otherwise, the disappearance of the spirit ring would mean that Jiang Chen lost a large portion of his energy, which is a bad habit of wasting resources.

Jiang Chen then stretched out his claws and began to eat.

Because of the Queen Bee's jade bead, Jiang Chen didn't feel much about these few guard bees.

"Then you're next, the most delicious queen bee."

Jiang Chen couldn't wait to try what this oldest queen bee tasted like.

Walking up to the queen bee, Jiang Chen stretched out his two claws, grabbed her, and prepared to tear her in half and devour her.

The severely injured queen bee sensed that Jiang Chen was about to devour her, and fear inevitably arose in her heart.

Unfortunately, the queen bee's lifespan is only a little over 2 years.

Although this level of soul beast already possesses intelligence, it is still not as capable as a human.

Therefore, the Queen Bee's fear still cannot provide Jiang Chen with any information.

Even if they could instill fear in Jiang Chen, he would still devour these soul beasts.

Unlike soul masters, soul beasts don't consume the soul power along with the martial soul they eat.

Feeling her body being torn apart in pain, the queen bee began to beg Jiang Chen for mercy.

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

The queen bee transmitted a message, indicating that she could become Jiang Chen's subordinate and continuously breed new worker bees for him to eat.

Meanwhile, her hive also contains royal jelly, a higher grade of honey than the honey on the outside.

She was willing to let Jiang Chen devour all of these, only asking that he spare her life.

After understanding the Queen Bee's meaning, Jiang Chen felt that she was indeed worthy of being a soul beast that had lived for tens of thousands of years, and had already learned to beg for mercy.

But after the queen bee finished speaking, she still felt a pain in her body.

Hiss! !

Jiang Chen tore the queen bee's body apart.

"I don't have that much time to wait for you to slowly reproduce so I can eat you. Besides, even if I kill you, the royal jelly inside the hive will still be mine, won't it?"

"Foolish!"

As he spoke, Jiang Chen pulled the queen bee, which had already been torn in two, into his body and began to devour it.

"Buzz!!"

The queen bee let out a final, mournful cry before being devoured by Jiang Chen.

Thus, the most powerful race in the Soul Hunter Forest, the Winged-tailed Bees, were completely wiped out by Jiang Chen, and their energy was transformed into the power for Jiang Chen's growth.

Jiang Chen remained where he was, beginning to digest the energy within his body.

"It'll be soon."

After digesting the food, Jiang Chen felt his current physical condition and realized that his next growth was not far off.

Jiang Chen then turned his gaze toward the winged bee's hive.

Jiang Chen felt that he could gather all the resources he needed for this growth without leaving this place.

After all, there's still a lot of honey in the hive that I haven't eaten yet, and there's also that royal jelly that the queen bee mentioned, which is probably quite good too.

Jiang Chen then began to devour the winged bees in their hive.

After consuming all the honey on the outside, Jiang Chen felt that his energy was almost there, but still a little short.

Jiang Chen then began searching inside the beehive for the royal nectar that the queen bee had mentioned.

While searching, Jiang Chen continued to eat the honeycomb of the winged bees, since the honeycomb also contained energy that couldn't be wasted.

Although it's not as good as honey, it's still acceptable.

In the end, Jiang Chen did indeed find the royal jelly that the queen bee had mentioned in the center of the hive.

Looking at the crystal-clear, golden-lustered imperial nectar, Jiang Chen felt it was indeed quite good; it was clearly a valuable item.

Jiang Chen then started eating directly, deciding to eat the good stuff first.

During his journey of absorbing the Emperor's Elixir, Jiang Chen's body underwent another period of growth.

"Four meters."

Feeling a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, a complex emotion encompassing both emotion and reflection) as he looked at his current physique.

This Soul Hunting Forest is truly a treasure trove! Before I even finished eating, I had already grown a full seventy centimeters.

Finally, after devouring all the royal jelly in the winged bee's hive, Jiang Chen was satisfied and prepared to leave.

But Jiang Chen only realized what was happening after he had just stepped out of the beehive, which he had already devoured most of.

"I almost forgot our fine traditions."

Jiang Chen then devoured the entire winged bee hive before leaving.

Next, Jiang Chen shrunk his size and went to hunt other soul beasts.

However, when Jiang Chen began to shrink his body, he was surprised to find that he could shrink an additional 5 centimeters.

Jiang Chen can now shrink to a minimum size of 45 centimeters.

After a moment's thought, Jiang Chen realized that it was the improvement in his own strength that had driven the growth of his abilities.

This is not surprising, though. In fact, even Jiang Chen, who is only 45 centimeters tall, feels that he is far from being tall enough.

It's worth noting that Ultraman Seven and Jack, as Ultra Warriors, can shrink their bodies to the size of an ant, or even a cell.

As for Jiang Chen, who is a Hepa larva, even if he doesn't shrink to the level of a cell, he should be able to shrink to the size of an ant.

As a result, it can only be shrunk to 45 centimeters now.

The road ahead is long, but we still have to keep eating.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen continued on his journey of growth.

Our reborn God King Tang San is currently experiencing a very unsatisfactory life.

Tang San was originally going to the Seventh Dormitory to find Xiao Wu, despite the burns caused by Jiang Chen's dark fireball.

They couldn't find it, and instead got beaten up, which made their injuries even worse.

After several days of treatment and rest, Tang San's body has finally recovered significantly.

Because he discovered that Xiao Wu had not appeared at Notting Academy, Tang San knew that something had changed in the world after his rebirth.

In order to find out why Xiao Wu did not come to Notting Academy, Tang San decided to improve his strength and then go to find Xiao Wu.
