31: The hatred for killing my father is irreconcilable!

“Ding, a devourable and evolvable individual has been detected.”

Thus, a system panel appeared before Chen De.

It displayed information related to evolving by devouring the Shadow Wolf King.

Evolution: Celestial Crystal Armored Rat

Devour Target: Blood Fiend Wolf

Synthesis Points: Common Blood Fiend Wolf bloodline

Evolution Target: Blood Fiend Heaven Crystal Rat (A demon beast with a trace of ancient bloodline)

Synthesis Points: A wisp of the Shadow Wolf King's ancient fierce beast Blood Devouring Demonic Rune Beast bloodline (One-tenth awakened, can be fully awakened after synthesis)

Evolution Target: Slaughter Blood Demonic Crystal Rat (A demon beast with a wisp of synthesized ancient bloodline) (Can acquire traits: Blue-Red Markings, Blood Devouring, Blood Mark Demonic Crystal…)

Chen De had observed the battle from the sidelines for so long, so he naturally knew that the Shadow Wolf King was actually a Blood Fiend Wolf, not a Shadow Wolf.

However, Chen De had no interest in the so-called Blood Fiend Wolf bloodline.

His goal had always been clear: the Shadow Wolf King's ancient bloodline.

Therefore, Chen De unhesitatingly chose the Shadow Wolf King's wisp of ancient fierce beast bloodline.

“System, I choose to fuse the Blood Devouring Demonic Rune Beast’s bloodline!”

“The bloodline the host wishes to fuse is that of an ancient fierce beast, which inherently carries a blood-devouring, berserk nature.”

“After fusion, the host’s moral standards may decline towards the average value between the host and the Blood Devouring Demonic Rune Beast.”

Upon hearing this, Chen De did not hesitate in the slightest.

For Chen De, the two words he valued most in this life were 'morality'.

To make him abandon morality would be to tell him to die.

However, Chen De felt that since his current morality was already so high,

it would inevitably make others who tried to catch up to him feel despair.

This was not what Chen De wanted to see, as his dream was to fill the world with morality.

But heaven had given Chen De invincible morality, cutting off the possibility of others catching up.

Whenever he thought of this, Chen De felt very helpless!

So this time, for Chen De, it was an opportunity.

It could both give others hope of catching up to Chen De in morality again, and allow Chen De to experience the feeling of improving his morality once more.

After all, since becoming the ceiling of morality, Chen De’s morality had fallen into a bottleneck.

He hadn't experienced the feeling of moral growth in a long time.

Moreover, Chen De believed that even if his morality declined, he would still be the ceiling on the path of morality.

Thus, Chen De chose to confirm the fusion.

As his voice fell, Chen De placed both hands on the Shadow Wolf King’s body.

However, the Shadow Wolf King's body at this moment was already disemboweled, with many broken bones.

It was covered in blood, its body no longer resembling a wolf, and there were some food scraps-like things around it.

Nevertheless, none of this affected Chen De’s devour evolution.

Instantly, the Shadow Wolf King’s body began to melt, slowly integrating into Chen De’s body.

Gradually, red and blue halos began to emanate from Chen De’s body.

The two colors of light intertwined and merged.

Chen De’s body shape also slowly changed during this process.

Rodent features gradually diminished, his limbs lengthened, and simultaneously became thicker.

In shape, he became more akin to a crawling demon beast like a wolf.

Soon, Chen De’s devour evolution was drawing to a close.

As the light dissipated, Chen De’s appearance after devour evolution emerged.

Because the bloodline concentration of the Blood Devouring Demonic Rune Beast was far higher than that of the Apocalypse Divine Crystal Ant,

the characteristics from the Blood Devouring Demonic Rune Beast were significantly more prominent than those of the Apocalypse Divine Crystal Ant after the devour evolution.

Even some of the original characteristics of the Apocalypse Divine Crystal Ant were transforming towards those of the Blood Devouring Demonic Rune Beast.

First, his head had the characteristics of a wolf-type demon beast.

The crystal between his brows turned a red and blue intermingled color, and it also appeared to have thinned somewhat, showing a tendency to transform into markings.

The crystalline armor on his body also thinned slightly, but its defensive power was stronger than before.

After all, after fusing with the new bloodline, it merely added the characteristics of the new bloodline without affecting the foundation of the original bloodline.

The Apocalypse Divine Crystal Ant bloodline still functioned with the same effect as before.

It was just that its characteristics were not as obvious as before.

The markings on his body also emitted red and blue intertwined light, and the light flow gathered along the markings towards the center of his brows.

Chen De opened his eyes, and the color of his pupils had already turned a deep blood-red.

Chen De felt very good; his body was extremely comfortable after the devour evolution.

Moreover, he didn't feel any decline in morality; on the contrary, Chen De even felt that his morality had improved.

This made Chen De think of a terrifying possibility that Chen De found hard to believe, yet was logical and reasonable.

Although Chen De was unwilling to believe this possibility, things had come to this, and Chen De had no choice but to believe it.

After all, Chen De was a person who dared to face reality, not a coward who would only evade it.

That possibility was that...

Even Heaven did not want him, this ceiling of morality, to fall here, and instead made his morality increase rather than decrease.

Chen De couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Indeed, apart from himself, Heaven and Earth were still fair; no one could be as perfect as he, Chen De.

While possessing strength, he could also possess morality so high it made people despair.

Then, Chen De opened the system panel and looked at it.

Seeing the panel, Chen De's heart was filled with excitement; he now had three more talents and two more skills.

His attribute values hadn't changed at all, but Chen De's combat power at this moment was many times stronger than before the evolution.

This made Chen De eager to immediately find a demon beast to test his new talents and skills.

So, Chen De silently turned his gaze towards the direction of the Silver Scale Rhino King.

The Silver Scale Rhino King also seemed to be severely injured; Chen De couldn't help but think of the Silver Scale Rhino King’s inheritance.

The Silver Scale Rhino King had ruled the Vortex Forest for so many years; he must have many resources, right?

Somehow, perhaps it was Chen De's newly increased morality at play after fusing the bloodline.

In Chen De's heart, a deep sense of guilt suddenly arose for his adoptive father, the Shadow Wolf King, whom Chen De had accidentally killed.

Chen De seemed to recall bits and pieces of his life with his adoptive father.

Under the influence of his conscience, Chen De decided that he would avenge his adoptive father.

Yes, Chen De admitted that the Shadow Wolf King had indeed died accidentally by his hand.

But if the Silver Scale Rhino King and the others hadn't put the Shadow Wolf King in such a state,

with the Shadow Wolf King's Demon Spirit Realm strength, even if he stood there and let Chen De hit him, Chen De wouldn't be able to kill him.

So, on the surface, the Shadow Wolf King was killed by Chen De.

But Chen De had initially only wanted to play a joke on the Shadow Wolf King.

Is it wrong to play a joke?

Therefore, the true culprit should actually be the Silver Scale Rhino King.

The Shadow Wolf King's death actually had nothing to do with him, Chen De.

Indeed, he, Chen De, was innocent from beginning to end.

Yes, the hatred for killing his father is irreconcilable!

He, Chen De, must avenge his father!

He must crusade against the Silver Scale Rhino King!
