Chapter 53

That massive body and the heavy power it contained were enough to make one’s scalp tingle.

Chen Ang was naturally no exception; even if he could block it, he had no desire to take such a blow for nothing, so he dodged without hesitation.

And the very moment Chen Ang dodged, the Magic-Horned Rhino trampled down.

Rumble—

The ground shook violently.

The trampled ground formed a massive crater, with spiderweb-like cracks spreading all around it.

The power was truly terrifying.

"But this won't hurt me, and if you touch me, you can only blame your own bad luck."

Chen Ang said with a faint smile.

He took a step forward, the sound of breaking air rang out, and he attacked again.

Seizing the opening after the Magic-Horned Rhino’s attack landed, he launched an assault from the right, channeling his Rending Claws to strike once more at the spot he had previously injured.

The Magic-Horned Rhino’s sluggish reaction speed was nowhere near enough to block this blow; it could only watch helplessly as Chen Ang’s attack landed.

With a squelch.

Blood splattered.

This strike caused the wound that had already been injured earlier to tear open even wider and deeper.

Blood gushed out like a fountain, and one could even see the ghastly white bones and flesh inside.

If it had only been a minor injury before, it was now a severe one.

The extreme pain caused the Magic-Horned Rhino to lose its sanity, completely consumed by rage and frenzy.

Roaring, it ignored its wounds entirely and charged recklessly toward Chen Ang.

"You should die."

Chen Ang sneered, dodging the attack with quick reflexes, then fixed his gaze on the Magic-Horned Rhino’s wound, his eyes flashing with a sharp glint as his attack erupted.

"Rending Claws—"

Squelch.

Another strike landed, driving straight into the already gaping wound, piercing through the flesh and bone inside, and touching the Magic-Horned Rhino’s heart, tearing it apart along with everything else.

At that instant, a mournful cry rang out.

And the moment it sounded, the Magic-Horned Rhino fell to the ground with a 'thud,' turning into a gradually cooling corpse.

The Magic-Horned Rhino was strong.

But unfortunately, Chen Ang was stronger.

With a wave of his hand, Chen Ang put away the Magic-Horned Rhino’s massive body, then turned and left.

Upon reaching a massive ancient tree and carving out a hollow, Chen Ang went inside, lit a campfire, and only then began to examine the Magic-Horned Rhino’s corpse.

"Tsk, good luck."

With a wave of his hand.

A horn appeared in his hand, radiating demonic energy and shimmering with luster.

Without a doubt, this was the horn of the Magic-Horned Rhino; he hadn't expected it to be a material as well.

And looking at the level of demonic energy, if nothing went wrong, this should be a material with a demonic-attribute talent, which was expensive, and it came from a Tier 4 Magic-Horned Rhino at that.

If all went well, this single horn alone could sell for fifty thousand.

But what made Chen Ang happiest was the Magic-Horned Rhino’s meat.

"This should be enough for me to activate the trait, right?"

Chen Ang thought to himself, waving his hand again with anticipation as the horn vanished.

In its place was a front leg of the Magic-Horned Rhino.

After cleaning it, Chen Ang immediately began to roast it.

While waiting, Chen Ang also began to practice Ancient Yoga, consuming the energy within his body in preparation to let go and have a massive feast.

Before long, the meat was roasted.

Chen Ang was hungry, so he picked it up and ate it regardless of the heat.

"Not enough."

After finishing one leg, Chen Ang was somewhat full.

But the trait had not yet been activated.

Clearly, it wasn't enough.

Without wasting time, Chen Ang took out another leg and began to roast it.

Then he practiced combat arts again to consume the energy in his body.

A cycle like this.

Meal after meal.

It was fortunate that the Magic-Horned Rhino’s body was massive enough, with many edible parts.

Otherwise, it really wouldn't have been able to withstand Chen Ang’s eating.

Soon.

Chen Ang let out a satisfied burp, took out the last piece of meat, and continued to roast it, muttering to himself, "If this piece isn't enough, I'll just have to wait until tomorrow."

The sky was dim, and he would have to rest in a little while.

Shaking his head, Chen Ang stood up, straightened his posture, and practiced Ancient Yoga again.

When the meat was roasted, Chen Ang picked it up and ate it in large bites.

Bite after bite.

Gradually, Chen Ang felt a sense of scorching heat emerge in his body.

"Is it about to activate?"

Chen Ang thought happily, and he began to eat even faster.

Sure enough.

This feeling soon swept through his entire body.

Vaguely, a strange sensation emerged.

And Chen Ang even put down the roasted meat in his hand, a flash of realization appearing in his eyes for no apparent reason.

"Is this... the trait of the Recovering Body?"

Yes.

The trait had already been activated.

As a talent holder, he noticed it the moment it activated.

With just a thought, Chen Ang checked it...

Please collect, flowers, and rating tickets~.

Volume One

53: Goblin Merchant.

[Blood Spring: When consuming items rich in Qi and blood, a certain amount of Qi and blood will be stored and consumed to recover from injuries when damaged.]

"Hmm?"

"A recovery trait?"

Chen Ang’s eyes flickered.

The trait of the Recovering Body, tsk, how should he put it, it was actually quite good.

If viewed purely in terms of the Recovering Body, it was actually quite average.

Because it had no combat power bonus.

But as a second talent, it was indeed very good.

Because Chen Ang himself was not lacking in combat power.

The recovery ability of the Recovering Body, combined with this trait which clearly accelerated recovery, was very good for a melee talent holder like Chen Ang.

Especially since this thing seemed to pair very well with his 'Life-Stealing' trait.

The Life-Stealing trait itself was for recovering from injuries.

Plus the abilities of the Recovering Body and its trait.
