"In the future, if my strength allows, I also want to catch a dragon to eat! I wonder what it tastes like? Does it melt in the mouth or is it chewy..."
Jiang Che mused in his heart.
Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow!
This is a treasure that exists only in legends.
In mythological tales, Dragon Liver and Phoenix Marrow are delicacies only gods and immortals are qualified to enjoy!
If dragons and phoenixes really exist in this world, he naturally would want to taste them, experiencing the treatment of gods and immortals.
However, at the moment Jiang Che was just imagining. With his current strength, growing to the extent of hunting dragons and phoenixes, who knows how many years it will take.
While Jiang Che was daydreaming, Fang Yuan beside him was staring intently at the children outside the glass, eyes filled with greed, unable to resist licking his lips.
"These children, with their tender skin, smell delicious; they’re truly exquisite blood meals!"
But when he thought of the thick barrier between them, the fiery blaze in Fang Yuan’s eyes was instantly extinguished, leaving him in despair.
Being displayed like a monkey every day for people to view was extremely humiliating for Fang Yuan.
"It’s all because of this damned barrier!"
"When my strength grows a bit more, I will break this barrier and devour these blood meals, eating to my heart’s content!"
Fang Yuan cast a fierce glance at the tempered glass, cursing angrily in his heart.
The sight of these blood meals was like a beautiful woman tempting him, but he could only look, not touch. How could he not be enraged!
Jiang Che came to his senses, inwardly speechless, thinking, does this guy have anything else in his head besides blood meals?
This guy should be grateful he’s just a young tiger and obstructed by tempered glass, unable to harm anyone.
Before the Spiritual Energy Revival, if he dared to bite or swallow a human, he might have ended up with a bullet to the head.
It wouldn’t matter if the old second died, but he occupies one of his slots!
Then, Jiang Che stopped looking at the off-kilter guy, closed his eyes, and comfortably lay down again.
Time flew by, and Jiang Che has been reborn for over a month now. The most update n0vels are published on novel※fire.net
With ample food supply, coupled with the Body Refining Technique, each of them had grown to the size of an ordinary earth dog, shoulder height reaching or even surpassing the zookeeper’s knee.
That day, Nangong Luo kept ramming into the trunk of a camphor tree, as thick as a thigh, causing the tree to tremble slightly, with pale yellow leaves drifting down.
Suddenly, Nangong Luo’s momentum paused, his body trembled, and he let out a joyful roar before a faint crackling sound came from within him.
Instantly, Nangong Luo’s tiger body shook, his bones expanded, his muscle contours became more pronounced, his fur shone bright, appearing like a Divine Tiger standing under the tree, glowing with golden light!
Clearly, after a month of rigorous body refining, Nangong Luo’s strength had greatly improved.
[Ding! Detected Nangong Luo’s strength improvement, congratulations host on receiving tenfold feedback.]
With the system’s notification ringing out.
A warm current flowed into the body, continuously nourishing and tempering the tiger’s body until the stream depleted.
Jiang Che noticeably felt his own qualities enhance a bit more.
He opened the attribute panel to check.
Species: Northeast Tiger
Bound Targets: Nangong Luo, Fang Yuan
The comfortably lying Jiang Che immediately felt refreshed, having leveled up and grown stronger.
Feeling the surging vitality within, Jiang Che flexed his tiger paw, gauging his strength, and began contemplating.
Previously, he could smash a tree trunk as thick as an arm with a single swipe, and now his strength had increased again.
If someone were hit by him, even if they didn’t die, they’d be seriously injured.
In just a month, this rate of progress was incredibly fast!
If the system wasn’t limited, Jiang Che really wished he could bind eight thousand targets all at once, having them refine their bodies together, his strength would soar like a rocket!
Sadly, the system is not that supportive...
Sigh, little brother and sister, big brother can only rely on you for now, work hard.
Whether big brother can taste Dragon Meat depends on your performance!
After receiving the feedback, Jiang Che turned over and fell asleep again.
The iron door inside the Tiger Garden was pushed open, and a middle-aged lady in a zoo uniform walked in, carrying cleaning tools to start tidying up.
Upon hearing the sound, Fang Yuan immediately woke from his body refining, stood up, and stared at the lady entering the Tiger Garden, his eyes flashing bloodthirstily, tiger saliva dripping from his mouth!
"If I could devour this fresh blood meal before me, my demonic skills might advance further! Then escaping here would be more hopeful!"
Since being reborn, stuck in this damned Tiger Garden, only able to eat low-quality meat chunks every day, his Heaven-Swallowing Demon Scripture showed little progress.
Fang Yuan had long been anxious, and now finally the opportunity had come.
Circling around, Fang Yuan sneaked behind the middle-aged lady, slowly approaching without making a sound.
Nangong Luo was a cultivation fanatic, presently engrossed in body refining, his golden tiger body ceaselessly ramming the tree, completely oblivious to the anomaly.
As for why the zookeeper didn’t stop Nangong Luo from ramming the tree, naturally, it’s because repeated attempts have failed, making the zookeeper give up.
Nangong Luo didn’t notice, but Jiang Che, who heard Fang Yuan’s inner thoughts, couldn’t sit still.
Before the Spiritual Energy Revival, no deaths should occur in the Tiger Garden, or Fang Yuan might die, and Jiang Che and Nangong Luo would also be implicated, possibly even split up.
Moreover, if Fang Yuan died, Jiang Che would lose a slot, something he absolutely couldn’t allow!
There were only five slots in total. Having just bound two targets, losing one would make Jiang Che’s heart bleed.
Actually, the zoo’s Tiger Garden had a human-tiger separation policy; when zookeepers cleaned, all tigers would be locked away to prevent them from hurting people.
However, that was for adult tigers. The three of them, not yet large, were regarded as cubs, hence the human-tiger separation wasn’t implemented.
No human-tiger separation posed no issues for other young tigers, given their limited intelligence and lack of hunting intent.
But for Fang Yuan, with human intelligence and a mind constantly filled with blood meals, it’s a huge problem.
Earlier, they were too small in size, so even if Fang Yuan wanted to target the zookeeper, he was powerless, hence there was no danger to the zookeeper.
But now, after a month of growth, the trio had grown considerably, their sharp teeth could easily tear into flesh, and if Fang Yuan acted unexpectedly, he could definitely kill the zookeeper.
"This idiot! Do you realize you’re committing a foolish act? This is no different from suicide!"
"This fool can’t distinguish between one hearty meal and consistent nourishment!"
Then, Jiang Che jumped up and charged towards old second.
