My Mysterious Left Hand

[Nutritional Attribute +1]

[The aroma of meat +1]

[Nutritional Attribute +1]

Sure enough, almost everything he collected next was the attribute he wanted.

"It actually works! Now there are even more things we can do."

Li Chen beamed as he incorporated these attributes into the piece of flesh in his hand and continued collecting.

As more and more nutritional and aromatic properties of the food were collected, the black panther's carcass began to collapse, releasing a strong, foul odor, as if it were rotting.

At this moment, a large number of insects appeared not far away, all crawling out of the ground, probably attracted by the smell of blood.

He frowned slightly, gave up collecting the materials, and turned to leave.

Anyway, the remaining corpses were just shells of their former selves, with little of value left.

"call!"

Flames appeared in his hands, burning the pieces of meat in them.

Under his precise control, the flames did not burn the meat, but instead slowly roasted it over a low flame.

Gradually, a rich aroma of meat wafted out. Even without salt, the flavor was incredibly enticing and mouthwatering.

During this process, he clearly noticed that his flames had also become stronger.

Clearly, as he begins to cultivate, his fire-based abilities will also be refined.

"Hiss hiss hiss..."

The swarm of insects behind quickly arrived at the location of the black panther's carcass and covered it.

But more insects did not stop; they continued forward, chasing after Li Chen's location.

Li Chen's eyes turned cold as flames silently spread out from beneath his feet.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

The surrounding weeds were burned to ashes in the blink of an eye, as were all the insect swarms that followed, making a series of loud explosions, like firecrackers.

The night wind blew, fueling the fire and making it grow bigger and bigger.

"Buzzing..."

"Hiss!!"

Countless common poisonous insects scrambled out from the layer of decaying leaves, trying to escape.

However, these insects were burned to death as soon as they appeared.

Insects, such as spiders or caterpillars, were also smoked down from the top of the giant tree and fell into the fire, where they were burned to ashes.

In the blink of an eye, the area within a ten-meter radius became barren, pitch black, and covered in ashes.

Seeing that the meat was cooked, Li Chen began to eat it immediately and enjoyed it immensely.

Although the piece of meat is not large, it contains a lot of nutrients, so it has a huge amount of energy, which should be enough to fill him up.

At the same time, because it incorporates many fragrant properties, it tastes delicious even without salt.

One bite, and your mouth is filled with fragrance; it's indescribably delicious.

"Crackling and popping..."

The swarm of insects behind them continued to advance, attempting to extinguish the fire with sheer numbers, charging towards them recklessly, seemingly having their sights firmly set on Li Chen.

Sensing all this, Li Chen turned around expressionlessly, continuing to eat his food heartily as he walked forward.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Under his control, the flames grew even more powerful, sweeping forward and turning the decaying leaves to ashes in their wake.

The swarm of insects exploded one after another, then burned to death, turning into charcoal.

"Crackling and popping!"

It's like setting off firecrackers here; it's very noisy.

At the same time, flames shot into the sky, as if to ignite a forest fire, and the roars of beasts could be heard from afar.

The roar was filled with panic, and people fled in panic, their voices fading into the distance.

However, with Li Chen's precise control, it was impossible for a real forest fire to break out; he was simply wiping out these ignorant insects.

Soon, the black panther's body was also burned to ashes.

But he did not give up. It was unclear whether these insects were controlled by the same brain. Even as he slaughtered them, they did not give up and continued to surge forward relentlessly.

But this did nothing.

He continued to move forward, the flames moving with him, and soon he reached the entrance to the insect's cave.

The next moment, under his control, the flames slithered into the cave like serpents, burning everything inside.

"Squeak squeak squeak..."

A sound similar to a mouse could be heard, but it quickly disappeared.

Finally, the swarm was completely wiped out, not a single one remained.

Li Chen sneered, extinguished the flames, stuffed the last bite of meat into his mouth, chewed it up, and swallowed it.

As he expected, because it contained a lot of nutrients, this piece of meat was enough to fill him up.

I was even a little full.

Don't be fooled by the fact that this piece of meat is only the size of a palm. In fact, it contains almost a third of the black panther's nutrients, making it a highly compressed food.

"My physical abilities have increased dramatically, and I need more food, but that's not a problem for me at all."

Li Chen let out a satisfied burp and was about to leave when he suddenly sensed something inside the insect's burrow.

He quickly went to the entrance of the cave and started digging with both hands.

The cave was deep, but that was no problem for him now. His hands were like giant iron hoes as he frantically dug.

In an instant, earth and rocks flew everywhere.

A huge crater appeared in the blink of an eye, and the thing he had sensed was quickly dug out.

To his surprise, it turned out to be a bead, perfectly round and smooth, with a light blue color and a very smooth surface.

The bead was very heavy; it was only the size of a fist, yet it weighed more than two pounds.

After receiving it, Li Chen sensed an enormous amount of energy within it through spatial perception, which shocked him.

"It doesn't look man-made. What is this thing?"

Curious, he reached out with his left hand and tried to collect its attributes.

However, whether it was because the bead was too high-level or for some other reason, a full half minute passed and not a single attribute was collected.

"Interesting, this is the first thing that stumped my left hand."

He did not linger there but continued searching for a tree hollow to rest in.

Although his strength had increased dramatically and his energy and spirit had improved significantly, he was already very tired because he had been cultivating all day.

We must conserve our energy and strength so that we can concentrate on fighting the enemy when danger arises.

During this process, he kept rubbing and even kneading the beads with his left hand, trying to collect the properties within them.

Finally, after several minutes, perhaps due to his violent kneading, an invisible spatial fluctuation rippled out from the surface of the bead.

[Cave Heaven Attribute +1]

He collected a completely new attribute.

However, the surging fluctuations did not disappear after the attribute was collected, but continued to ripple outwards.

A thousand meters away from here, inside a huge tree hollow, a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, dressed in animal skin clothing, suddenly stood up.

"Could this fluctuation be...?"

His eyes were filled with excitement. He grabbed his bone knife and rushed out of the tree hole. After determining the direction, he leaped up and moved swiftly across the giant tree, heading towards the direction from which the fluctuations were coming from.

……

"Cave-heaven attribute? What kind of characteristic is that?"

Li Chen was somewhat surprised that he could find such an attribute from a bead; it was truly strange.

The cave's attributes were revealed, and the pale blue luster of the bead in his hand diminished slightly, but it remained undamaged.

He tried to integrate this attribute into his own body.

Without any discomfort or hindrance, this attribute successfully integrated with my body.

The next moment, he discovered that he could sense the inside of the bead; there was a very large space inside.

"This is..." He was startled and was about to examine it closely.

However, at that moment, a powerful aura rapidly approached.
