Devouring the starry sky, the clone evolves into a primordial behemoth.

Chapter 17: The Clone Hunt!

On the fourth day after Chen Mo entered the wilderness area, he was still in County 0423.

About a kilometer above the county town, a huge black shadow streaked across the hazy sky, accompanied by a piercing scream.

It was a giant bird monster, about twenty meters long, like a large fighter jet. Its feathers had a faint metallic sheen, and the feathers on its head were dark black, like a black crown. Its sharp and huge claws were also golden yellow.

This is the extremely terrifying 'Black-crowned Golden Eagle' among avian monsters, ranking third among eagle-type monsters! Adults are generally lord-level monsters with terrifying strength.

The black-crowned golden eagle glanced down at the dilapidated county town with its sharp, cold eyes that gleamed with blue light, seemingly finding no prey that could interest it.

then--

"boom!"

The black-crowned eagle, which was already flying very fast, suddenly increased its speed, breaking the sound barrier in an instant and reaching a terrifying speed, disappearing into the northern horizon in the blink of an eye.

call!

The giant python clone, hiding inside a building in the small town, breathed a sigh of relief. Originally hunting, it had instinctively taken cover in the building, thus avoiding being seen by the terrifying black-crowned eagle. Otherwise, it might have become the eagle's prey.

"I never expected such a terrifying bird-like monster to appear in the skies above this small county town. It seems I'd better be careful."

The giant python clone waited until about ten minutes after the black-crowned golden eagle left before silently gliding across the ground and onto the street outside the building.

The python's keen sense of smell and temperature sensing ability allowed it to quickly locate its prey, a tiger-cat with a head and a tail.

The Tiger Cat is a high-level beast soldier. It has spots on its body, a size comparable to a calf, and is much more agile and ferocious than a one-horned wild boar. Its reaction speed is also much faster than that of a lion mastiff.

The tiger cat is a kind of monster that does not like to live in groups. At this moment, it was completely unaware of the danger approaching and was still lazily lying on the roof of a two-story building, looking like it had just had a big meal.

The two-story building was only seven or eight meters high, and the giant python's clone simply stood half of its body upright along the wall and easily climbed up.

At this point, the python's clone had grown to 19 meters in length and weighed a staggering 1000 kilograms!

This tiger mastiff weighs about 300 pounds, barely enough for breakfast.

"Miaowu~"

The tiger cat, which was stretching, suddenly became alert, its body tensed instantly, and its back arched high.

Its eerie green gaze fell on the outside of the rooftop railing, where a pair of fist-sized, dark golden pupils were coldly watching it, as if a high and mighty god was looking down on an ant on the ground.

A nameless fear rose within the tiger cat; the oppressive feeling emanating from the depths of its genes caused its body to tremble slightly involuntarily, and it dared not make the slightest move.

However, the instinct for survival ultimately triumphed over fear. After letting out a roar, the tiger cat decisively leaped out of the building at top speed, intending to jump to another small building next door and use its agility to shake off the terrifying giant python.

As for a direct confrontation? Don't even think about it; that would be suicide.

However, just as the tiger cat's body leaped into the air, a black shadow simultaneously shot up, its speed as fast as a black lightning bolt, arriving in front of the tiger cat in the blink of an eye.

A gaping maw opened in mid-air, biting right into the tiger cat's neck. Sharp fangs emanated a chilling aura, instantly piercing through the tiger cat's thick fur.

Accompanied by the tiger cat's mournful roar, the giant python, with a body as thick as a water bucket, tightly coiled around it, snapping all its bones in one fell swoop, causing it to lose its life.

"Even though they are both high-level beast soldiers, this tiger cat is really weak compared to the strength of this clone."

The giant python released the dead tiger cat, swallowed it whole, and slowly slid down the stairs.

Strangely enough, after the giant python's clone swallowed the food, its abdomen did not swell at all, even though it could clearly feel the food entering its stomach.

It's as if there's a whole universe inside its stomach, and the food isn't inside its body, but has gone to another space.

However, considering that the energy from the clone digesting food can enter the main body, the clone's stomach must be quite different.

However, although there is no change in the abdomen, the feeling of fullness is real. Once full, the clone will also move slowly and be unwilling to move. Therefore, the clone's combat power will decrease significantly during digestion.

Of course, swallowing only a 300-pound tiger cat wouldn't have much impact on the clone's strength.

At this moment, the python's clone, relying on its senses, once again meandered forward to find its next prey.

"Ordinary high-level beast soldiers are no match for them at all; their strength is on a completely different level. It seems I need to find one that is close to the level of a beast general to try."

Judging from its strength, speed, and reaction speed, the giant python clone is indeed only at the level of a high-level beast soldier. However, Chen Mo discovered that his ability to utilize the clone's power seemed to be naturally at a very high level.

As the giant python moves forward in a serpentine motion, it exerts its power in a special way. Once this special way is used in combat, it can easily unleash a powerful force that surpasses its own strength.

On a sudden whim, Chen Mo had his clone cultivate according to the power exertion method of the Nine-Fold Thunder Blade, and surprisingly, it easily mastered the first four levels! It could unleash a terrifying 3.5 times the power!

Moreover, it's not just about strength.

The clone can exert force from its entire body in a special way, resulting in a speed that is 3.5 times faster! That's a true 3.5 times the combat power!

Chen Mo thought about how he had practiced his power generation techniques for four whole days without making any progress, while his clone had directly reached the fourth level. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

At this moment, the giant python clone had silently arrived at a residential garden. In the overgrown square, a group of bright red rhinos were drinking water around the swimming pool. One of the rhinos was particularly tall and strong, and looked to weigh at least 8 or 900 pounds.

"It's you." The giant python's clone slid across the grass with a soft rustling sound, heading straight for the giant fire rhinoceros without making any attempt to conceal its presence.

"Moo~"

The surrounding fire rhinoceroses seemed to sense the approaching danger, and they quickly scattered, all staring at the uninvited guest with their large, bell-like eyes, exhaling hot breath from their nostrils.

These ordinary fire rhinoceroses are only mid-level beast soldiers, while the fire rhinoceros king is at least a high-level beast soldier at its peak, and may even be a low-level beast general.

At this moment, the Fire Rhinoceros King walked out, shaking its head and letting out a low roar in a show of defiance, while pounding the ground with its front hooves, preparing to attack.

Unfortunately, its opponent was not deterred and did not even stop approaching.

"hold head high!!"

The Fire Rhinoceros King was utterly enraged. This was undoubtedly a provocation, and it had to personally crush its enemy's body to maintain its authority within its tribe.

The Fire Rhinoceros King stomped its four hooves on the ground, then suddenly lunged forward and leaped high into the air. Its terrifying body, weighing nearly a thousand pounds, instantly soared into the air before stomping down hard on the black python on the ground.

If this step lands, the giant python's clone will likely be crushed with several holes.

However, the giant python clone showed no intention of dodging. Instead, it swung its long tail fiercely at the Fire Rhinoceros King in mid-air.

boom!

The terrifying power and speed caused the air to explode as the black tail collided violently with the giant fire rhinoceros king in mid-air—

The imagined evenly matched scene did not appear. The Fire Rhinoceros King, which seemed as powerful as a small mountain, was instantly sent flying. While still in mid-air, it was torn in two because it could not withstand the terrifying force, and blood mixed with the corpse rained down.

The Fire Rhino King, suspected to be a low-level beast general, was killed with a single blow!

Chen Mo had a rough estimate of the power of his giant python clone. If his current base strength was 4800kg, then 3.5 times that would be 16800kg!

Even without relying on mental power, the clone possessed strength nearly equivalent to a mid-level beast general! This was confirmed by the fact that it killed a Fire Rhinoceros King, which was suspected to be a low-level beast general, with a single whip of its tail.

After killing the Fire Rhinoceros King, the remaining Fire Rhinoceroses scattered and fled. The giant python clone didn't bother with them. After devouring the Fire Rhinoceros King's corpse, it crawled back to the darkness of the underground parking lot and began its tenth digestion.

Once this digestion is complete, the third genetic evolution will begin...
