Ultimate Series, Past Lives Revealed

91: Lingfeng’s progress[Zombie Ling Feng’s eyes widened. Looking in the direction where his ’kindred’ Xiao Lizi had disappeared, a surge of anxiety welled up in his heart.]

[Xiao Lizi was the only existence willing to pay attention to him. Although her words left him feeling as if he were lost in a fog, she was, after all, the only one who had communicated with him!]

[Ling Feng pondered that he must find Xiao Lizi, but when he tried to move his body, he found he couldn’t move at all—because he had no hands or feet! This sense of powerlessness made him feel incredibly frustrated.]

[He raised his head, looking longingly at the many kindred passing by. A series of muffled, indistinct roars issued from his mouth: ”Roar, roar-roar, roar-roar-roar!? Roar-roar?”]

[The meaning was roughly asking them why they all had healthy limbs while he was so incomplete, and exactly how he could grow those limbs.]

[At first, not a single zombie noticed Ling Feng lying on the ground asking questions.]

[But Ling Feng was not discouraged. He persistently questioned every passing zombie, even going so far as to bite one and refuse to let go.]

[Finally, this zombie stopped in its tracks, though it seemed a bit dim-witted.]

[Faced with Ling Feng’s urgent question, the zombie froze for a moment before reacting, its mouth also letting out a roar: ”Roar-roar-roar? Roar-roar-roar-roar!”]

[It was as if it were mocking Ling Feng for being an incredibly stupid fellow, not even knowing something so innate.]

[Ling Feng was not about to give up. He continued to roar loudly: ”Roar-roar-roar,” urging the other to hurry up and tell him the answer.]

[Perhaps feeling there was no need to get too entangled with a ”fool,” or perhaps simply wanting to get rid of Ling Feng’s pestering, the zombie replied helplessly: ”Roar-roar-roar,” meaning that as long as Ling Feng ate more, he could Level up and then grow hands and feet!]

[Hearing this, Ling Feng repeated in confusion: ”Roar-roar?”]

[Clearly, he didn’t quite understand what kind of connection there was between so-called ”eating” and growing limbs.]

[However, at that very moment, Ling Feng’s keen hearing caught a low yet clear shout: ”Level up!”]

[These words seemed like a mysterious incantation, echoing continuously in his mind.]

[Ling Feng’s concept of food was very vague; he wasn’t even sure what the so-called ”meal” was. But at this moment, a strong sense of hunger surged into his heart like a tide, making it unbearable.]

[His hollow, soulless eyes stared intently at the kindred walking around. He thought to himself that perhaps the only things that could fill his stomach were these beings similar to him.]

[Ling Feng could not move. Despite this, he still fixed a greedy gaze on a nearby zombie that was gradually approaching.]

[When that figure finally walked beside him, Ling Feng suddenly opened his mouth, revealing sharp fangs, and bit down hard with lightning speed!]

[The bitten zombie let out a series of panicked roars: ”Roar-roar-roar! Roar-roar-roar?”]

[It seemed to be questioning why Ling Feng had suddenly attacked and signaling for him to quickly let go.]

[But Zombie Ling Feng ignored it completely, only caring about desperately tearing at the prey in his mouth. With a crisp ”crack,” one of the zombie’s legs was instantly bitten off.]

[Surprisingly, this injured zombie didn’t show the slightest sign of pain. After all, as zombies, they had long since lost the ability to perceive pain.]

[At this moment, its only thought was to break free from this crazy fellow as quickly as possible.]

[But Zombie Ling Feng remained relentless, his mouth still muttering: ”Roar-roar-roar? Roar-roar-roar?”]

[As if he were confused why this piece of meat he bit off had no flavor at all, while also bitterly pondering how exactly to achieve the so-called ”Level up.”]

[Since he received no response, Ling Feng could only continue to tear away frantically. Before long, the other leg also became something in his mouth.]

[This time, he had no intention of stopping. Using all his strength, he desperately bounced his body, moving bit by bit with great difficulty, his target aimed directly at the zombie’s head.]

[Zombie Ling Feng went all out this time, using every ounce of strength to suddenly open his mouth and bite down hard.]

[This time, the zombie that had previously shown no reaction finally responded.]

[A low, angry roar came from the zombie: ”Roar-roar-roar! Roar!”]

[As if cursing: ”Bastard! Ah!”]

[However, this did not make Zombie Ling Feng retreat one bit. On the contrary, he suddenly became exceptionally excited, as if he had discovered some rare treasure.]

[Thus, he did not hesitate to exert force and bite down hard again, mouthful after mouthful, until he finally completely ended this zombie’s ”undead life”!]

[Just then, something unexpected happened—inside the head of the zombie he had bitten to death, Zombie Ling Feng unexpectedly discovered an item emitting a mysterious light that was very attractive!]

[Looking closely, it turned out to be a crystal-clear crystal core!]

[Zombie Ling Feng’s eyes widened, staring curiously at this shiny little thing, his heart full of doubt and confusion.]

[Although he didn’t know what it was, an instinctive intuition told him that this thing might help him achieve some important Breakthrough, perhaps even allowing him to complete a Level up!]

[Without much thought, Zombie Ling Feng relied on instinct to bite the crystal core hard and then swallowed it into his stomach without hesitation.]

[Just as it went down, a powerful surge of energy instantly exploded within his body.]

[Ling Feng was instantly beyond excited, unable to suppress his internal agitation as he roared toward the sky: ”Roar-roar-roar!”]

[It was as if he shouted: ”I can jump now!”]

[Before his voice even faded, Zombie Ling Feng kicked off, his entire body springing up like an arrow released from a bow.]

[Immediately after, he quickly turned around and sprinted into the distance without looking back, searching for new prey while running, ready to continue ”enjoying his meal.”]

[After all, there were still many kindred like him in this area. However, for the now greatly strengthened Ling Feng, he could easily manage to eat while on the move!]

[Wang Dadong of the Gold Time Dimension: Narcissist, you’ve already fallen to this level, eating your own kind to Level up!]

[Arthur Wang of the Gold Time Dimension: Arrogant One, are you looking for a fight!?]

[Huyan Jue Luo Xiu of the Iron Time Dimension: That crystal core can actually allow zombies to Level up!]

[Silver Time-Space Zhang Fei: So that’s the kind of ”meal” it meant!]

[Gou Zhui of the Copper Time Dimension: It turns out zombies can communicate with each other.]

[Hao Jiaqi of the Gold Time Dimension: And it’s also very interesting; it’s as if they’ve become a whole new race!]

[Sun Shang Xiang from Silver Space: And zombies feel even more cruel. If zombies really become a race, I think the survival space for humans will become even more difficult!]

[Illusion Time-Space: After all, they even eat their own kind!]
