Lin Qian was completely unaware of the changes happening in human cities, and life in the forest was quite pleasant.
Although occasionally some mutated beasts would foolishly appear and cause trouble, the tigers were not afraid. These beasts were not strong and could be killed with a single swipe of their claws. It was just that they would appear from time to time, which was really annoying.
Because mutated beasts are inedible, even though their meat is fresh, both the flesh and blood have an extremely foul and fishy smell.

The energy contained within is chaotic and mottled; absorbing this energy is not beneficial and will instead affect the purity of one's spiritual power.
Therefore, not only do Lin Qian and his group not eat mutated beasts, but even spirit beasts like the panda mother and cub would not eat mutated beasts. As spirit beasts, they can sense the chaotic and mottled energy and distinguish whether something is edible or not.
Ordinary animals, given a choice, would mostly not eat the meat of mutated beasts.
Mutant beasts are alien creatures that have failed to evolve, or losers, while ordinary beasts are beings that have not yet truly begun their evolutionary journey.
Therefore, ordinary beasts may evolve into spirit beasts over a long period of time. However, if they consume beasts that have failed to evolve and absorb their fragmented energy, they will completely lose the possibility of evolution, which would be a great loss.
Although he was having a relaxing and pleasant time in the forest, Lin Qian's mind was not completely at ease.
Besides the necessary patrolling and hunting, Lin Qian also trains with Tiger Dad and the others every day to continuously improve his combat experience and abilities.
In addition, he continued to study the methods of operation. As his level increased, he used more spiritual energy, and Lin Qian became more and more certain that the methods of absorbing and refining spiritual energy were particularly important.
The way things are run is one of the fundamental factors affecting evolutionary efficiency and outcomes!
Just like the martial arts techniques in novels, it is the foundation of one's life and should not be underestimated.
Of course, creating something from nothing is extremely difficult. Up until now, Lin Qian has only been able to adjust his own operational path.
Lin Qian also studied and adjusted the absorption routes of the tiger mom and tiger dad. Although it was the simplest method, the efficiency was two or three times higher than before. With Lin Qian's spirit gathering effect, the family of tigers absorbed spiritual energy at a speed and in quantity that far exceeded that of other spirit beasts.
As the number of strange beasts continued to increase, Lin Qian also began to make some judgments. Based on his observations over this period of time, he made some summaries and now has a general understanding and summary of the evolution of creatures under the revival of spiritual energy.
Based on the information he has gathered so far, biological evolution can be divided into three directions.
Spiritualization, alienation, demonization.
Spiritualization is what beings like Lin Qian do. By absorbing spiritual energy, they awaken supernatural abilities, develop intelligence, become spirit beasts, and refine spiritual power. This is the best way to evolve, without any risks or harm.
Alienation refers to creatures like pangolins that have failed in their evolution. While alienation sounds similar to evolution, it is not; it is a failed form of biological evolution.
In summary, they went astray during the process of spiritualization and ultimately failed to achieve the correct evolution.
Although their bodies were enhanced, the spiritual energy they absorbed was disordered and impure due to the failure of evolution. This caused the nature and intelligence of the creatures that failed to evolve to be destroyed by the restless and violent energy, turning them into monsters that only had bloodlust and the desire to eat.
Because of the failure of the evolution in the direction of spiritual energy, the alien beasts are extremely sensitive to the aura of the spirit beasts. They instinctively yearn to obtain the correct evolution, so they will tirelessly seek out the aura of the spirit beasts. This is why Lin Qian and his companions have been encountering alien beasts recently.
The last type of demonization is extremely rare. Examples include the two-headed crows and six-tailed foxes in the Snow Mountain Secret Realm, as well as the flocks of birds that the Golden Eagles encountered when they first arrived in the forest.
The energy contained in demonized creatures is more violent and complex, and their bodies are filled with turbulent energy. Therefore, after death, when the energy contained in their bodies dissipates, their flesh and blood quickly turn into soil-like decaying matter.
This is different from mutated beasts, whose flesh is fresh and does not rot quickly.
Furthermore, the demonized creatures are somewhat similar to spirit beasts. This can be seen from the feathers produced by the two-headed crows, which are materials containing energy, only the energy is somewhat different from that of spirit beasts.
There are no materials produced by mutated beasts, which may be because the current level of mutated beasts is too low to produce parts containing energy.
Although the mutated creatures Lin Qian has encountered so far have not displayed any supernatural abilities, Lin Qian has a vague feeling that mutated creatures do possess supernatural abilities.
We just haven't encountered it yet, so we'll have to wait and confirm it later.
After all, Lin Qian hadn't encountered many demonized creatures, and he didn't know the reason for their demonization, but he guessed it wasn't caused by the evolution of spiritual energy.
It must be due to the mixing of other energies, which caused the energy to become mottled, restless, and unstable.
What is known so far is that the mutated creatures are extremely bloodthirsty and powerful in combat. Like spirit beasts, they have ways to level up, but their intelligence is extremely low, or even non-existent.
Therefore, once they encounter a demonized creature, it becomes a fight to the death.
Once Lin Qian had reached a conclusion, he began to "teach" a group of tigers, imparting various kinds of knowledge. Although it was a bit difficult for the tigers to understand, Lin Qian was quite adept at it and could manage it with a little more time.
Lin Qian never concealed the information he knew from Yijiahu, because he knew the impact of information asymmetry.
If something bad happens in the future because of a lack of understanding of this information, then it will be too late to regret it.
