As the herds of beasts gradually grew stronger, they continued their southward migration, just as Lin Qian had planned.
Almost all animals chose the south, perhaps out of survival instinct or experience from previous migrations; in any case, the south was a tacit understanding among all animals.
The moonlight streamed down, making the cold night even more chilly.
Suddenly, Lin Qian's spiritual sense detected something unusual.
He instinctively activated his spiritual senses and began to observe his surroundings.
But there was no danger hidden in the surrounding forest. If it wasn't in the woods, could it be in the sky?
Lin Qian raised his head and looked up at the sky.
No! It's underground!
Before Lin Qian could continue his investigation, a dark figure suddenly burst forth from the earth!
Having anticipated this, Lin Qian leaped up and instantly dodged the unexpected attack.
The tigers beside them instantly dodged and quickly jumped to a suitable angle for attack.
Amidst the flying mud, a hideous, gaping maw was revealed!
Before they could even see what kind of creature it was, a stench assaulted their nostrils, making the beasts wrinkle their noses.
The chipmunk covered its nose and instantly shrank back.
Without a second thought, Tiger Dad jumped up and slapped him with his paw!
"Bang!
A loud bang was followed by a cloud of dust and the sound of tree branches being destroyed.
Under normal circumstances, no animal could withstand a slap from the tiger dad; it would either die or be seriously injured.
Although the attacker was knocked to the ground, he kept moving, seemingly trying to get up.
Tiger Dad and Tiger Mom went over first, ready to give it another swipe.
At this moment, both tigers became somewhat angry.
Everyone was on their way, and suddenly someone was trying to cause trouble?
Isn't this a provocation against their dignity as the king of beasts?! This cannot be tolerated, absolutely cannot be tolerated.
Lin Qian's spiritual sense had already spotted the attacking creature, with the little tiger close behind. He was quite curious about it.
When the tiger dad and tiger mom saw a giant centipede struggling on the ground, both tigers were stunned.
Ugh! What garbage! I thought I'd get an extra late-night snack!
The two big cats glanced at it, and seeing that the centipede's struggles were getting weaker and weaker, they simply ignored it.
Lin Qian approached, scanned the area with his spiritual sense, and then left.
This thing is one meter wide and over five meters long. Despite its size, it's still inedible.
Under the scan of spiritual sense, this thing was similar to a mutated ant, both being defective products of evolution induced by heavy rain.
The rattan ball hanging beside Tiger Dad rolled to the ground with a thud, and then rolled towards the giant centipede.
Just as it was about to get close to the centipede, the vine ball braked suddenly and came to a stop. A vine suddenly pierced into the mutated centipede's body, and some subtle pulsations could be seen on the vine, as if it was sucking something.
Lin Qian's eyebrows twitched, but after thinking for a moment, she didn't stop it. Since the mutated vines wanted to absorb nutrients, they must need to replenish their reserves.
After the vines were retracted, Lin Qian grabbed the vine ball with one paw and examined it carefully.
In his spiritual sense, the aura of the mutated vine did not change much, but the mutated vine expressed the idea that it was "delicious" to Lin Qianchuan.
Delicious? Lin Qian was puzzled. When he absorbed animal flesh and blood before, the mutated vines had given him feedback that it was "unpalatable".
Could it be that plants are more attracted to insects?
Upon inquiry, the mutated vines gave a "different" answer.
As for what's different, the mutated vine can't answer that now. Its consciousness is still hazy, and the information it conveys is very simple, so Lin Qian has to figure it out himself.
Lin Qian thought that mutated insects must be more beneficial to the mutated vines, otherwise he had never seen the vines catch and eat ordinary insects.
Releasing the rattan ball, the mutated vine rolled back to Tiger Dad's side and nimbly hung itself up again.
Tiger Dad was very satisfied with Tengqiu. This guy knows how to find food on his own now. Not bad, not bad. No need to worry about him dying on the way.
Although the mutated vines were in good condition, Tiger Dad was still quite worried. In his mind, plants would die soon after being removed from the soil.
Fortunately, this guy has been alive and well all along, and he is very good at finding opportunities to take care of himself. Whenever he gets the chance, he finds a place to settle down. He is very clever.
The snow fox cautiously observed the whole process, its pale purple eyes widening slightly, before it flicked its tail and darted away.
Oh dear... how did the bugs get so big?! And the vines are eating these big bugs! How are the foxes supposed to survive?!
The panda mother didn't go over; the scent from before had died from the overpowering smell, and she didn't want to smell it again.
The little panda eagerly followed Lin Qian around and peeked at the centipede. When it saw the giant centipede's gaping maw spewing out venomous gas, the little guy darted away.
"Aww!" Mommy!
The chipmunk, perched on the red panda's head, was also drawn along, but the little guy showed absolutely no interest in these mutated insects.
Looking at her cub huddled beside her, the panda mother began to question her very existence. Her eyes swept over the tiger family, then back to Lin Qian and Yong Qi.
In the end, all I could do was sigh deeply.
Although bears aren't as fierce as tigers, we're still bears, you little panda! Are you sure it's okay for you to be so much weaker than them?!
The little panda seemed to sense its mother's distress, and raised its round head, its eyes glistening with tears.
Those dark eyes seemed to be saying, "Mommy, I'm only seven months old! How can you make me compete with a tiger that's six months older?!"
The panda mother quickly withdrew her disdainful gaze from her cub and continued to follow the group at a leisurely pace, carrying her basket. Because she was at the back of the group, the situation here wasn't so noticeable.
