Chapter 106: Still Food
Page 1/3
Lin Fan stared blankly at the howling beast, waiting for it to burst apart and die.
But in the next moment, Lin Fan’s pupils suddenly contracted!
After the Yeti leader’s agonized wails reached a peak of swelling, instead of exploding, it suddenly shrank!
The massive body, inflated by the tremendous energy of the Tianshan Snow Lotus, began to contract instantly, yet it did not weaken. Instead, it gave off an impression of growing more solid and compact.
It shrank rapidly from over ten meters tall to about three or four meters—in other words, from the terrifying height of a five-story building down to that of a single floor.
The wounds on the Yeti’s body completely healed, and it stood quietly, its aura surging even more intensely!
It surged directly from the ninth rank to a demigod!
Although its size had decreased, the oppressive presence it emanated grew even stronger!
If before Lin Fan had faced what felt like a towering mountain, now he felt as if he confronted an unbreakable diamond!
This pressure was not born of size.
The Yeti leader before him no longer bore the monstrous bulk, but every muscle on its body was sharply defined, visible even through its fur.
Its white fur had turned silver, shimmering with a radiant glow, and beneath the fur, its skin was snow-white, crystal clear like jade!
Were it not for the savage face and fangs, this body could be mistaken for a masterpiece of art.
Its purity had risen!
As if it had transformed from a mere stone into a hard jade.
“Revenge!!!” The Yeti roared with bloodshot eyes.
“Coincidentally, I want revenge too.” Lin Fan’s smile was grim as he raised his blade and charged forward!
Lin Fan knew he could not afford to delay any longer!
Without giving the beast any chance to adjust, Lin Fan’s Green Dragon Saber struck again. The sharp blade vibrated through the air, its sound resembling a dragon’s roar!
A fierce blade of light sliced through the air, ruthlessly aimed at the Yeti who had swallowed the Tianshan Snow Lotus.
“Whoosh!”
The Yeti neither dodged nor avoided but countered with its claws, unleashing terrifying speed in an instant. Before the members of the Godslayer Squad could react, a white shadow collided with the blade’s gleam!
“Ding!”
The blade flashed brilliantly.
The claws tore through the air.
Demigod versus demigod!
“Bang!”
A dull sound rang out as Lin Fan was thrown backward, crashing to the ground!
At this moment, the Yeti who had consumed the Tianshan Snow Lotus had surpassed Lin Fan in strength!
It blocked Lin Fan’s Green Dragon Crescent Blade with a single enhanced claw, while the other claw...
The Yeti stood there, looking down at the fallen Lin Fan.
Among its silver fur, a strand of golden hair appeared!

An aura beyond the mortal realm radiated from this body brimming with wildness and power.
The heavens and earth trembled.
This body, already surpassing humanity and filled with primal strength, had transcended the demigod state under the influence of the Tianshan Snow Lotus, stepping into godhood!
A first-tier godly body!
Transcending the mundane, wielding divine power!
“Pfft!”
Blood surged forth from the deep, grisly wound in Lin Fan’s chest, staining his battle attire!
“Impossible...” Lin Fan stared blankly at the colossal beast before him, his eyes full of disbelief. “You were only forcibly awakened recently. You haven’t even had a chance to eat... How could you possibly endure the Tianshan Snow Lotus!”
The power granted to the Yeti by the Tianshan Snow Lotus left Lin Fan stunned.
But what he could not comprehend was how the Yeti could even withstand the Snow Lotus!
It had just awakened, and yet it had no time to feed...
“Who said I didn’t eat during my slumber?” The Yeti leader’s grotesque face twisted into a chilling, sinister smile. “Food can also be my own kind...”
“You weak humans.”
“You talk about protecting your own, but how could you understand the exquisite taste of consuming your kin...”
Food... kin...
At that moment, Lin Fan’s eyes were filled with shock.
This creature actually regarded its own kind as food!
This was a possibility Lin Fan had never considered. It was his misjudgment!
He truly never imagined the Yeti would be so ruthless as to consume its own kind to satiate hunger during slumber!
The nutrients from its kin’s bodies enabled it to withstand the energy of the Tianshan Snow Lotus!
Suddenly, Lin Fan understood why the Yeti had watched its fellow Yetis die without intervening, striking only now.
Those Yeti corpses... were precisely the food it desired—the flesh of its own kind!
It had deliberately allowed its kin to be slaughtered!
“Seems you understand now.” The Yeti stepped before Lin Fan, raising its claws high!
Just as it was about to tear Lin Fan open, the members of the Godslayer Squad regained their senses and rushed forward.
“Save the commander!”
“Damn beast! Kin are not food; kin are to be protected!”
“Protect the chief!”
“How can mighty Daxia lose to a beast like you!”
Seeing Lin Fan on the brink of death, the Godslayer Squad members went mad, unleashing their full strength to attack!
Not because Lin Fan was their commander.
But because Lin Fan was their kin!

At this moment, the Yeti and the Godslayer Squad seemed divided by an invisible line.
This was the boundary between civilization and savagery.
The beginning of civilization is learning to protect one’s kin.
Only savagery would see one’s own kind as food.
This was a clash between reason and instinct!
The people of Daxia, regardless of wealth or status, shared the same bloodline!
Kin who protect each other!
They could never stand idly by while their kin were slaughtered!
Anyone who harms their kin—even a god—must be confronted in battle!
“Boom!”
Blazing flames, piercing ice spears, rolling wooden pillars, and massive stones all rained down upon the Yeti’s body!
The various elemental power wielders unleashed their abilities as if possessed, exerting every ounce of strength.
Meanwhile, the Immortal-Slaying Sword, the Fish Intestine Sword, and numerous ancient relics of Daxia flew toward the Yeti!
But—
“Roar!!”
The Yeti’s single punch shattered the flames, snapped the ice spears, and dispersed the boulders!
Those razor-sharp relics could not pierce the Tianshan Snow Lotus-enhanced, resilient skin, and the Godslayer Squad members who charged alongside were sent flying by the force of the blow.
A chasm forever separates gods and mortals.
Though the Yeti had just acquired a godly body and was not yet a true god—unable to wield divine power to condense divine arts or manifest a godly domain—its strength was far beyond a true god’s.
Its physique was that of a first-tier god!
A divine body!
A godly form imbued with divine power!
“Pfft!”
Dao Wanjian crashed heavily to the ground, suddenly spitting blood, his aura withering.
The Immortal-Slaying Sword was lodged askew in the earth beside him, trembling slightly.
“Weak humans,” the Yeti looked down on them all, its ferocious fangs gleaming menacingly as it rasped, “you are nothing but food.”
“Even if you possess so-called weapons.”
“Without claws, without fangs, without muscles filled with wild power.”
“Weapons or not, food is still food.”
