Python Rebirth on Survival Island

The Second Stage of Evolution Begins!

Whoosh!

Hiss hiss hiss…

The island was huge.

As for exactly just how big it was, Ye Bei was unable to tell.

However, judging from the direction the tree leaves were fluttering in and the cool sea breeze he felt, Ye Bei determined that the island was surrounded by an endless sea.

Moreover, the beasts on this island were mutated for some special reason, which was also very strange!

However, Ye Bei was only using his body to move fast, and he didn’t bother to ponder this matter at all.

As he was looking for more creatures to consume, he started contemplating a strange dilemma.

“This is such a mysterious island. So, do any humans live here?”

“Even if there aren’t any humans here, there might be people who come to explore or hike…”

“If that’s the case, and I happen to meet them, should I eat them or not?”

Indeed, at that moment, Ye Bei’s mind was fully occupied with this very problem.

However, these questions soon disappeared.

After eating the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger, Ye Bei had covered a very far distance. Still, there was no sign of any creatures nearby, and he started to feel extremely unsettled.

“System, why don’t I see any other creatures? This doesn’t make sense, scientifically speaking…”

After traveling more than 300 meters, Ye Bei couldn’t resist asking this question.

After all, no living creature had appeared within his field of vision. However, when he first arrived in this jungle, he had been absolutely sure that numerous creatures lived in this jungle.

“The Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger is the natural enemy of many living creatures! All living species possess the ability to detect danger! This is a basic guarantee for survival… Currently, you’re able to efficiently decimate most of the creatures living within this jungle. Hence, it is only normal that they would flee.”

“Huh?”

After listening to the System’s explanation, Ye Bei widened his eyes.

Because he’d eaten the Mutant Sabre-toothed Tiger, he’d gained the ability to protect himself. But he also now posed a terrifying threat to all the creatures around him…

However, the reason why the system’s announcement made Ye Bei’s eyes widen was something else altogether.

As of now, he was able to decimate most of the creatures living within this jungle!

If that was that case…

In other words, there were still creatures on this island that could pose a threat to him!

The stronger the creature he devoured, the more Evolution Points he would gain.

At that moment, Ye Bei’s heartbeat quickened, and he began to stir…

“In that case, System, since ordinary creatures are avoiding me, you should be able to tell me exactly what powerful creatures are on this island, shouldn’t you?”

Ye Bei sharpened his claws, figuratively speaking.

A python that didn’t want to evolve quickly was definitely not a good python!

Readying himself for the challenge of crushing the other powerful foes was the way to go…

However, just as Ye Bei was preparing himself for a huge showdown, the System curtly responded to his question.

“I’m sorry. You are required to discover all the creatures on the island for yourself. The System will not provide any help in this regard!”

His request had been unceremoniously rejected.

Fine… Ye Bei had been ready for a huge battle, but when he heard that reply, all the fight in him instantly left.

In the time ahead…

It was going to be much harder to hunt creatures.

It took more than an hour for Ye Bei to find and devour a rabbit, which gave him one hundred evolution points. Every time Ye Bei was about to accomplish his goal, the creatures would react even quicker and escape at the first opportunity.

Only a small number of less responsive creatures remained behind.

In this difficult environment…

Ye Bei was always counting the time.

After 8 hours, 23 minutes, and 5 seconds had passed, he—with a grand total of 4980 Evolution Points—finally found a lone pheasant!

“Cuckoo…”

“Cuckoo…”

The pheasant’s tail was extremely long, and its body was very meaty. Probably sensing that danger was near, it started cooing.

It spread its wings, intending to fly away.

Eat it! Eat it! Eat it!

As for Ye Bei, the instant he caught sight of the pheasant, his mind was filled with that phrase and nothing else.

As long as he devoured the pheasant and obtained the Evolution Points, he would be able to complete the second stage of the Blood Python’s evolution… Ye Bei had been waiting for almost nine hours, and excitement began to course through him.

Whoosh…

He quickly twisted his body.

And exerted an enormous amount of strength…

The very next instant, Ye Bei lunged towards the pheasant with a loud swoosh.

At the same time, he opened his mouth wide.

A four-meter-long python was no laughing matter… After having the pheasant in his grasp, Ye Bei swallowed it entirely within less than two seconds.

The delicious meat slid down his throat.

However, unlike the previous times, Ye Bei didn’t stop to savor the delectable taste of his food.

The moment he swallowed the pheasant, the System’s voice rang out.

“Congratulations, Host, on successfully devouring one pheasant and gaining 20 Evolution Points. You have reached a total of 5000 Evolution Points. Would you like to begin the Evolution Milestone?” The System’s voice sounded mildly excited.

This was unprecedented.

“Of course! Begin immediately…”

“Host, the second stage of evolution will require some time. The moment it begins, your body will enter a dormant period! The evolution will take between 8 to 12 hours. Please choose a safe place before beginning the evolution process,” the System warned.

“Dormant period?”

Ye Bei’s mouth dropped open, and his forked tongue peeked out.

“In other words, during the dormant period, even if another creature attacks me, I won’t be able to defend myself?”

“That is correct, Host! Once you enter the dormant period, you will lose control of your body until the evolution process is completed.”

“Got it!”

Ye Bei nodded his head.

His mind churned as he wondered where to find a place safe that other creatures wouldn’t be able to find.

This jungle was huge.

However, the bigger the jungle, the more dangerous it was!

In order to evolve as quickly as possible, Ye Bei had to try his best.

After struggling with the task for more than five hours, he finally found a huge boulder. Then, using his teeth, he slowly made a hole where the boulder met the ground. After stuffing his body inside, he used his head to block the hole, thus cutting himself off from the outside world, and was finally done with his task.

“This place should be safe enough.”

Ye Bei murmured to himself as he hid in the dark cave.

“Well then, begin the second stage of evolution!”

His voice was laced with excitement.

The System had created such a huge fuss that Ye Bei couldn’t help but be curious about what sort of improvements he would gain after the completion of this evolution!!!

The moment he gave the command…

A powerful wave of energy instantly coursed through Ye Bei’s entire body. Inside the dark cave, Ye Bei’s eyes suddenly opened wide!!
