I'm not just human!

Now, as a subordinate god with the strength of a Celestial Venerable, his knowledge is far beyond what it used to be. He has even attended the banquet of the son of a righteous god, so he naturally knows a lot of information related to the overlord-level secret contract of the "Primordial Stomach".

For example, under normal circumstances, the probability of a Primal Stomach Contractor gaining extraordinary talent through devouring fluctuates between one percent and one ten-thousandth.

Of course, if one encounters a truly desirable extraordinary talent, one can activate the Primal Stomach's secret ability, "Primal Extraction."

After initiating the Primal Extraction, one is guaranteed to gain a desired extraordinary talent upon absorption. The cost is a prolonged period of weakness, ranging from a few years to several hundred years, depending on the quality of the extraordinary talent.

Of course, absorbing the sacred metal corresponding to the primordial stomach, such as "Primal Explosion Secret Uranium," can shorten the duration of weakness.

However, if one possesses an exceptionally powerful talent, using "Primal Extraction" can easily lead to loss of control.

Another secret ability of the Primal Stomach is called "Primal Unraveling," which is a method to release all the supernatural creatures or monsters that it has devoured and fixed, thereby greatly enhancing its own strength.

Xia Fa had seen the secret ability "Primal Secrets" many times, whether it was Michel, Ruscond, or Pope Nidhogg, they had all used it.

"Devour, absorb, fix, primordial extraction, primordial secret unraveling..."

Xia Fa murmured, these are the five secret abilities of the "Primal Stomach". Devouring and absorption are easy to understand, and he just used these two secret abilities.

As for "fixation," it can be understood as a weaker version of "primordial extraction" with minimal cost, which can fix supernatural creatures or monsters that have been devoured into one's own body, thereby using some of their extraordinary talents.

However, strictly speaking, this kind of extraordinary talent is not as good as direct absorption. If the supernatural creature or monster being devoured is destroyed in battle, the corresponding extraordinary talent will naturally become unusable.

For some reason, Xia Fa has a natural aversion to having other supernatural beings or strange creatures "fixed" in his body, so he won't choose it easily unless he encounters something that is very worthwhile.

"coming!"

Xia Fa muttered to himself, his eyes shining as he awaited the result of this "draw".

The next moment, two whale phantoms emerged from the pitch-black stomach, looking exactly like the wandering whale.

One of the wandering whale phantoms repeatedly went through the process of being injured and recovering. No matter how serious the injury, it healed rapidly and was soon back to normal.

The second illusory wandering whale swayed its body, and ruby-like scales shot out from its body, covering almost everything around it in all directions, their sharpness reaching its peak.

"[Super Healing Body][Crystal Scale Eruption]..."

Xia Fa's eyes lit up. He never expected that out of more than a hundred extraordinary talents, he would actually draw two of them!

He was already quite content with just one!

In particular, both of these extraordinary talents are very useful. I just happen to lack the ability to heal injuries quickly, and I actually managed to draw them!

As for the "Crystal Scale Burst," it goes without saying that it can be used in conjunction with the god-level mutation "Absolute Guardian Giant Scale," easily achieving a surprise effect!

In particular, given the sheer toughness of the "Absolute Guardian Giant Scale," which could withstand even a Celestial Venerable's attack, it's unimaginable what the effect would be if it were launched like a flying knife.

Soon, the two illusory images of wandering whales merged into his body. Xia Fa quickly looked around and found that the patterns of the two wandering whales had appeared on his lower abdomen.

This is also the mark of the original stomach signifiers; the extraordinary talents they absorb will appear as patterns on their body or somewhere inside their body.

Xia Fa originally thought it would be on her forearm or neck, but now that it's on her lower abdomen, it's acceptable.

Otherwise, it would look a bit like a tattoo...

Without much thought, Xia Fa immediately looked at the back of his hand.

There, a stomach-shaped symbol appeared, translucent but with one-third of it filled with black.

Next to the stomach, there are two small dots of light, which are only about one ten-thousandth of the total length of the stomach's outline.

"So, before my stomach regains its digestive capacity, I can still devour two more quasi-celestial beings?"

"As for the extraordinary talents I can acquire... the total is ten thousand."

Ten thousand? That's just too outrageous. Xia Fa even checked it again to make sure it was correct before letting out a long sigh of relief.

The children of the true gods have all signed a contract with the Primordial Stomach, so Shafa specifically asked them about the total amount of extraordinary talents they could gain through absorption.

The highest is the "Necessary Fist," which yields around three hundred, while the lowest is the "Observer of All Things," which only yields a little over one hundred.

However, Xia Fa never expected that he would actually receive ten thousand...

"Looking at it this way, if I have nothing to do in the future, I'll try to find supernatural creatures or strange beings with many extraordinary talents and high status to devour. Hmm... maybe I can go and see other mysterious forbidden zones, or go deep into the Protoss Realm, or even visit the tombs of the Great Old Ones."

Ten thousand. I don't know if I can gather them all before becoming a true god. Of course, it's okay if I can't. Relatively speaking, becoming a true god is more important. There's no need to wait.

Anyway, you can continue to devour others after becoming a true god.

"By the way, can the Gold Cleaner devour?"

The audacious thought that suddenly popped into Xia Fa's mind startled him, but he immediately remembered what the children of the true gods had mentioned at the dinner table: some of the Outer Gods who had signed the Primordial Stomach had tried to devour the Bronze Cleaners, only to have their bodies explode...

Moreover, it was the kind of case that couldn't be saved...

Thinking about it this way, the Gold Cleaner probably can't devour it either.

Seeing that his body was full of divine power and spiritual energy, and that he had also gained two very useful extraordinary talents, Xia Fa felt full of motivation and prepared to find two more quasi-celestial beings in the [Mortal Python] to devour.

In the Celestial Spirit Realm, supernatural beings or strange creatures at the Quasi-Celestial Venerable level are rare, so we must take advantage of this place to search more.

He took a few small steps and returned to Veronica, the Poison Patriarch, and the Bee of Nature, startling them both.

There was nothing they could do; Xia Fa's speed was now too fast, exceeding the range of their spiritual intuition.

"Master, did the...devouring succeed?" The Nature Bee asked cautiously, seeing the smile on Xia Fa's face.

"Yes, it worked. Let's go, let's continue looking for the bee swarm." Xia Fa replied with a smile, waving his hand and immediately leading the way.

This time, we didn't encounter anything worth devouring along the way. Mainly because our standards have risen, and we only want those at the Quasi-Celestial Venerable level.

Chasing the silver bullet, the three flew for more than twenty light-years before finally stopping outside an underwater valley.

"This should be it, there's no mistake."

Xia Fa made a joke, but at that moment, Veronica and the Bee of Nature seemed to be stunned by some extremely spectacular sight, staring blankly ahead.

A few kilometers ahead, there was a beehive comparable in size to a planet, like an ancient and ancient city. Countless wasps, numbering in the billions, scurried back and forth in the hexagonal grid, their wings buzzing and causing the surrounding water to ripple.

These wasps are also quite unique in appearance; instead of a sharp stinger, their tails are emerald green snake heads that sway and flick their forked tongues, giving off an extremely dangerous feeling.

"Is this the kind of bee colony you wanted?" Shafa asked.

But Veronica shook her head blankly:

"No, no, these are called snake-headed wasps. The truly powerful swarm should live in that hive; they are its masters. But..."

"But what?"

“I sense that there is a queen bee with the quasi-celestial level in this hive. I... I can’t defeat her.” Veronica lowered her head.

"Are you sure about the Queen Bee, who has the rank of Quasi-Celestial Venerable?" Xia Fa's eyes suddenly lit up.

Isn't this the second quasi-celestial-level supernatural creature that I can devour?

In truth, all he ever wanted to do in his life was protect a few people.

--wedge

Yurioubi leaned against the round window, peering nervously out.

The massive hive structure was collapsing with a deafening roar, and no matter how brave the bee warriors were, they couldn't hold out for even a moment.

The fifth line of defense, formed by the bees, has been breached.

Just a few days ago, and even in the history of the Swallowtail Bees, no Swallowtail Bee could have imagined that their city of the Insightful Hive, on which they depended for survival, would be destroyed with such devastating speed.

Even the Queen Bee, who was skilled at prophecy, could not have foreseen such a day.

Cough cough! Cough!

As the figure enveloped in chaotic lightning rapidly approached the palace, Yurioubi coughed violently twice.

He was physically weak from a young age, making him the least competent member of the royal bloodline of the Swallowtail Bees.

While his peers, the Queen Swallower Bees, had already quietly sneaked into the three-inch zone to catch humans for food, he remained nestled in the warm hive, only able to watch enviously as his brothers and sisters brought back one human or demi-human after another.

"Have humans... finally attacked?"

A deep, resonant voice came from behind. Yuri Ubi turned around and immediately saw the tall, silent figure.

The figure was already wearing armor and holding a trident, seemingly prepared to die.

This is his father, or rather, the father of all his brothers and sisters, the Queen of the Swallowtail Bees.

"Yes, it's human."

Yuri said these words in silence. In the past, people always said that he was very similar to his father in temperament, and that he was usually so taciturn.

The only difference is that his father is a hero who can fight off alien monsters, while he can do nothing.

"So this day has finally come."

The Queen Bee with the Swallowing Tail sighed, as if she had already resigned herself to her fate:

"We have consumed too many humans, so it is only right that we are wiped out. After all, most of the legendary nine great gods are human."

As he spoke, he gripped the trident tightly, a fierce fighting spirit suddenly erupting from his face:

"However, we, the Swallowing-Tail Bee clan, can die, but we will never surrender!"

boom!

Yuri watched helplessly as her father's figure crashed through the door, heading straight for the chaotic lightning figure that had already pressed against the entrance.

"Protect the Queen Bee!"

These were the last words my father sent me.

Yurioubi turned his head and looked towards the innermost part of the palace, at the enormous and bloated "monster".

It was a queen bee that was a hundred meters long. Her upper body was as slender as a wasp and her face was beautiful, but her lower body was as bloated as a maggot. Countless snake heads and tails grew out of her, each snake head biting a snake tail, as if they had accomplished some strange and sacred ritual.

Beside it, there were tens of thousands of human skulls, piled up into towers.

That is the leader of the Hive City, the Queen of the Swallowing-Tail Bees, who has been born and existed for countless ages since time immemorial.

In the myths and legends of the Swallowtail Bee clan, even the city of the hive was created by the Swallowtail Bee Queen. However, unlike other queen bees, the Swallowtail Bee Queen does not lay eggs. Instead, she sits in the palace, silently influencing the entire bee city with her extraordinary talents.

In this situation, bee colonies born in the City of Insight have a chance to mutate into "Tail-Swallowing Bees," and even a "Tail-Swallowing Bee Queen" can be born every few hundred years.

The Queen of the Swallowing Tail Bees is the true lord who understands the city of the hive. Her offspring all possess the noblest and most powerful bloodline of the Swallowing Tail Bees.

This led all the bee colonies in the City of Insight to revere the Queen Swallowtail Bee as a deity, because without her, the City of Insight might become extinct in a few hundred years because it would no longer be able to produce Swallowtail Bees.
