As dawn broke, the remaining flowers gradually withered.
The aroma quickly dissipated, leaving only a strong smell of blood.
The python woke up first. It looked in surprise at the direction of the bushes. A moment later, a flash of silver light appeared, and a small female that looked about five or six years old appeared in the bushes.
The giant python curiously nudged the other with its nose.
The scent of its own kind reassured it, and coincidentally, it had just lost its own baby, so it unconsciously regarded this little female as its own child.
At this moment, it keenly sensed the approach of other high-level beasts nearby, and quickly used its tail to curl up the little female and burrow into the deep forest, returning to its own territory.
Before long, several beasts surrounded the place and ate the tiger's carcass.
In this plane, even the corpses of beasts contain spiritual energy, and the higher the level, the more spiritual energy a beastman contains than the flesh of a beast.
It took Xia Yixin three days to fully absorb the spiritual energy, and she "grew" to the appearance of a ten-year-old. The original owner was already eighteen years old and an adult, but due to physical defects, she had never transformed into a beastman form. Although she has now replaced her, she still needs some time to recover.
Perhaps because this plane is different from the previous one, she brought internal energy with her when she merged into this body, and this internal energy flowed through the dantian, which conflicted with the beast power of this plane.
Therefore, she cannot simply absorb spiritual energy like the other beasts or beastmen here; she needs to go through an additional step of fusion!
Using the principles of internal energy cultivation, absorb the spiritual energy here, open up the eight extraordinary meridians, and then gather it into the dantian to become internal force.
So even though she looks like a low-level beastman now, her inner strength is pure, and her explosive power and agility are comparable to those of a beginner or intermediate level beastman.
If he were from the previous ancient world, he would definitely be a top-notch master, invincible under heaven.
But in this dimension...
Based on her previous conversation with Da Hua, her skill level was still some distance from Da Hua's, but dealing with a mid-level beast was no problem for her.
By the way, Da Hua is that giant python, and it should be "she".
Because they had fought together and were of the same race, the sentient Big Flower treated her as a friend, although she always felt that Big Flower seemed to regard her as its baby...
At dawn, Xia Yixin opened her eyes and jumped down from the cave on the high cliff where the giant python was resting.
The distance of more than ten meters was very easy for her, and she landed silently.
She circled around and found that Big Flower had disappeared again. She was a high-level beast in this area, and no one dared to provoke her, so she wasn't too worried.
As usual, she went to the nearby area to collect herbs. She had some finished products in her storage ring, but she discovered that this plane had many rare herbs, even pieces of thousand-year-old ginseng.
She dug up a lot and piled it all in her storage ring.
After working for half a day, she lit a campfire and prepared to cook something to eat.
These past few days, she also let Da Hua try cooked food for the first time, and from then on, she enjoyed it so much that she would always hunt back things for her to cook.
For example, the day before yesterday she somehow stole an egg from who-knows-where, and she used the thick eggshell to make a pan, and the two of them ate fried eggs.
She still keeps the eggshell to this day to use as a cooking utensil.
I guess Da Hua went out to catch ingredients before dawn again.
Xia Yixin skillfully grilled some meat to fill her stomach first. Although it was delicious, the lack of salt in her mouth was really painful.
She figured she'd talk to Da Hua when she got back, and it was time for her to go find the male supporting character.
Da Hua knew the location of the "Huaxia Clan" of the original female protagonist, which was hundreds of kilometers away from here, requiring her to cross the territory of three or four high-level beasts.
But it's no big deal for her; the male supporting character should be right there now.
Just as she was idly roasting an extra large piece for Da Hua, suddenly, birds took flight from the distant jungle.
Sure enough, it wasn't long before we saw the huge, grayish-white body of the big flower, but this time there were two humanoid creatures wrapped around her tail.
Before they even got close, Big Flower hissed excitedly, "Hiss, hiss hiss! (My little one, I found two silly beast spirits today, can we roast them and eat them?)"
Since they were both snakes, Xia Yixin naturally understood.
Xia Yixin frowned, looking at the two blood-soaked figures approaching. She thought of the orc corpse she had brought back last night. "Didn't I tell you not to bring back corpses? They'll make the cave stink."
"Hiss! (No, no, they're alive! They're both still breathing. They wandered into the Shadowless Flower's territory and got drugged; they can't move now!)" Big Flower proudly tossed the two humanoid creatures to the ground and excitedly asked, "Hiss hiss hiss! (Can we eat them? How do we eat them? Are they tasty?)"
Xia Yixin knew that this was a jungle, but she still couldn't accept the beast spirits that ate humanoids. Just as she was about to ask Da Hua to throw the people away, a system notification sounded in her mind.
"Ding! Congratulations, host! You have picked up a male supporting character and a male lead! And activated the side quest: rescue the male lead and the male supporting character. You will receive 100 points for completing the quest. Currently, both of them have less than 30 health points. Please hurry up and rescue them!"
"..." Xia Yixin was a little flustered. You're saying the two bloodied people in front of you are the male lead Han and the male supporting character Xiao, whom she's trying to seduce?
How did they end up in the deep forest?
However, upon closer reflection, it seems that the original text mentions several times later on that Xiao attempted to escape after being sentenced to slavery by the Huaxia tribe.
Could it be that Da Hua discovered it by chance on one of those occasions?
But now was not the time to think about these things. She quickly explained to Da Hua that the two of them couldn't eat for the time being, and asked her to go to the river and bring some water.
Da Hua was extremely disappointed, but she still went to the riverbank.
During this time, Xia Yixin checked the wounds on the two of them.
These were two tall, muscular men, covered in black saliva from the Shadowless Flower, their faces so dirty that only a vague outline could be made out.
