70: Start brushing black fish

"Intermediate Recovery? Not bad."

Su Yuan saw the upgraded mutated ability and nodded secretly.

If it weren't for Beginner Recovery last time, he might not have survived the severe injuries caused by the mysterious battle armor and the Seven-Colored Toothed Fish so easily.

The effect of Intermediate Recovery would definitely be even more abnormal, perhaps even capable of repairing severe injuries during battle.

"Next, I still have enough evolution points, so I'll continue to evolve!"

Su Yuan didn't leave and continued to evolve.

Immediately, his evolution points rapidly disappeared, transforming into a mighty power that descended.

Su Yuan's body was shrouded in this mighty power, emanating a faint terrifying aura that frightened the surrounding fish and shrimp, making them stay even further away from him.

After an unknown period of time.

In the dark Underground Dark River, a pair of giant pupils opened. Their profound depth was enough to make some thalassophobes ascend on the spot.

Huge tentacles moved slowly, appearing dimly in the darkness, carrying an incredibly astonishing pressure.

"system panel!"

Su Yuan checked his attributes immediately.

[evolution points: 88 / 10000] (Increasing by devouring spiritual energy)

"This upgrade, my body length reached twenty-five meters, and my defense also improved. Although it's not bad, it's a pity it's not a skill."

"The previous times I gained skills were all five Ranks apart. Does it really mean I only get a skill every five Ranks?"

Su Yuan frowned slightly.

Compared to body mutations, the skills that have appeared so far are clearly more powerful.

Even Mind Whisper, which seems like a chat skill, has various incredible effects.

Having read cthulhu novels in his previous life, Su Yuan felt that this skill was very similar to cthulhu's prerequisite skill.

If his body size increased a hundredfold, and he evolved a pair of wings and a pair of large feet, he might be able to make a cameo as a low-spec cthulhu.

After completing the evolution, Su Yuan returned to the river. It was still night.

At this time, there were many predators hunting in the river.

But with Su Yuan's arrival, this body of water instantly quieted down, as if welcoming the arrival of a king.

Su Yuan's eyes calmly scanned the surroundings, found a decent spot on the riverbed, swam over, activated his Camouflage Ability, and fell into a deep sleep.

Soon, the night passed, the sun rose, and it was another clear day.

When the sunlight shone down and penetrated to the riverbed, the silt at the bottom of the river began to stir.

The water rippled, as if a prehistoric giant beast had appeared.

A giant Egyptian Walking Catfish seemed to sense something and swam over to look for prey.

This Egyptian Walking Catfish was three meters long, reddish all over, with a sturdy and powerful body. The sway of its huge tail could cause turbulence in the water.

But suddenly, this giant Egyptian Walking Catfish began to struggle, as if it was being bound and entangled by something.

The Egyptian Walking Catfish's eyes were extremely cold, glowing red, and its body suddenly ignited with raging flames, causing the surrounding lake water to boil!

"A fish in the water, actually capable of fire abilities?!"

Su Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly. The tentacles wrapped around the Egyptian Walking Catfish were almost cooked by its flames.

Su Yuan immediately released the Egyptian Walking Catfish, and his camouflaged body also appeared as he stared at the Egyptian Walking Catfish.

Seeing such a huge Su Yuan, the Egyptian Walking Catfish was also startled and frantically fled into the distance.

"You roasted a large piece of my flesh, and you think you can just leave like that?"

"There is no place for you to live, neither in the sky nor on the ground!"

Su Yuan's gaze was cold, and his mouth and nose glowed. The scorching white laser illuminated the riverbed, and a Laser Beam instantly shot out!

In an instant, the Laser Beam penetrated the Egyptian Walking Catfish's head at the speed of light!

This was the ultimate speed in the world! The supreme speed in the Universe!

In most current theories, the speed of light is described as the highest speed in the Universe, impossible to surpass!

In an instant, this Egyptian Walking Catfish, which had dominated this body of water, died on the spot and slowly sank towards the riverbed.

At this moment, its body was no longer burning with raging flames. One of Su Yuan's tentacles wrapped around its body, pulled it back, and swallowed it whole.

[You devoured an Egyptian Walking Catfish and gained 300 evolution points.]

"This breakfast is quite good, and it gave me three hundred evolution points."

Su Yuan grinned, then muttered to himself, "It's time to start today's task, to achieve the 'Blackfish Killer' achievement. By then, I'll probably meet the requirements for an upgrade."

"After upgrading, I can go back. After all, Dayang Lake still has the highest concentration of spiritual energy."

However, Su Yuan also knew the difficulty of this achievement.

Unlike Pond Snail, blackfish are ambush predators and usually hide in the dark.

And Su Yuan currently lacked corresponding abilities. Although his eyesight was extremely strong, he didn't have the ability to find prey like the Seven-Colored Toothed Fish from earlier.

"No more thinking, let's get to it!"

Su Yuan's lips curled up. His eight tentacles, carrying immense power, fiercely ravaged everything around them!

"Crack!"

A rock on the lakebed was struck by one of Su Yuan's tentacles, immediately cracking into numerous fissures, and then shattering.

Such a commotion was truly too great. The river surface churned with huge waves, and the water surged.

Countless creatures hidden in the dark ran out in a panic, frantically fleeing the area.

Among them were several blackfish, leaving the area with astonishing explosive force.

"Blackfish!"

Su Yuan's eyes fixated on them. Several tentacles swept over, catching them at an even faster speed.

After eating these blackfish, Su Yuan chose a direction and began a path of destruction!
