Chapter 564: [Feast] Crawled Out

Feng Mu could feel something crawling out from inside his body.

Was he that egg?

The magatama in his eyes spun madly, clearly seeing the flesh and blood under his skin writhing eerily, as if countless tiny worms were crawling in his blood vessels.

"Ugh—!"

He grunted, his pores suddenly opened all over his body, and sweat surged out like a spring.

The sweat first seeped out transparent, then gradually mixed with blood streaks, finally turning completely into a viscous colloid.

The black colloid was like a living thing, flowing along his skin, forming a layer of writhing black sludge, as if a layer of living black jelly had been wrapped around his body!!

"What crawled out of my pores is at least filial, at least the 'eggshell' isn't broken!"

Feng Mu's heart was still relatively calm; the scene before him was better than he had expected by more than ten thousand times.

As if responding to his thoughts, countless hair-like neural tentacles probed out from the black glue, seeping into his skin and establishing a signal link with his nervous system.

In his consciousness, a blurred voice sounded in his Nao Hai:

"Father……"

The voice was tender and chaotic, yet carried a kind of fanatical attachment.

Feng Ju's pupils shrank slightly, and he moved his will.

Swish—!

The black colloid contracted instantly like a receding tide, seeping into his pores and disappearing in the blink of an eye.

But the strange sensation of writhing under his skin clearly reminded him: there was an extra "resident" inside his body.

He could sense the other party was settled beside his heart, like a pitch-black parasitic tumor, beating in sync with his heartbeat.

Like a second heart accompanying him!

Feng Mu quickly left the Incineration Room, returned to the Office, and looked at the mirror on the wall again.

As he softly called out in his consciousness, the black colloid appeared again, covering his whole body like living water, and in an instant condensed into a pitch-black "battle suit," leaving only his head exposed.

The material was smooth like liquid metal, yet under the light it emitted an eerie biological texture, just like……

An association flashed through Feng Mu's Nao Hai, and as his will moved again.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

His back suddenly tore open, and more than a dozen pitch-black tentacles burst through his body, between solid and liquid, twisting and dancing in the air like mad snakes.

They were as thin as an infant's arm, soft and boneless, their tips turning into sharp blades, revealing a bloodthirsty sharpness.

The image in the mirror was eerie and familiar, very much like a villain hero from a certain Marvel movie of his previous life.

Perhaps out of awe for his father, it did not dare climb onto his father's head, so it was an incomplete, headless villain hero?

Feng Mu stared at the mirror, suddenly chuckled softly.

"Venom?"

He narrowed his eyes, and the tentacles behind him immediately retracted all their sharpness, turning into a soft touch like silk, affectionately rubbing against his cheek.

"Father, is this the name you gave me?"

Feng Mu hooked the corner of his mouth into a gentle arc: "It seems you like this name."

The battle suit covering his whole body rippled with pleasure, and the voice in his consciousness was extremely filial:

"As long as it is a name bestowed by Father, I like it!"

Feng Mu grinned, very satisfied with his eldest son's attitude.

【Shadow Symbiosis】 had not yet given birth to a complete consciousness, the shadow was more like a puppet completely controlled by him, so it could not yet be considered... born.

"Besides possessing me, show me your other abilities."

Since neither father nor son had any objection to the name, let's just call it Venom for now.

"Okay, Father!"

The moment Venom's voice responded in his mind, the black glue covering Feng Mu immediately detached, like a strand of pulled maltose, flying off.

Then it spun and shot into the mirror.

The next second, the mirror began to twist and melt like a wax figure encountering heat, and in the blink of an eye was dyed pitch-black like thick ink, falling to the ground and turning into a pool of writhing black liquid.

Then it slowly rose, gradually condensing into a blurry human outline, but its whole body was covered with mirror shards, looking glittering.

The Venom fused with the mirror was only about one meter tall, with no nose on its face, only a pair of terrifying whites of the eyes, and a mouth covering half its face.

Looking up at Feng Mu, it smiled showing a mouth full of teeth.

Just then, cold words suddenly appeared in Feng Mu's Nao Hai:

【System Prompt!】

【Mirror Parasite Fusion Detected】

【Grant life attributes?】

【Yes/No】

Feng Mu thought to himself:

"The previous Feast could bring people back to life, and of course could grant life to dead things, but dead things, even if they gain vitality, are still dead things, just extending the 'shelf life', and now……"

"And now... items parasitized by Venom have actually truly transformed into some kind of strange life, coming back to life?!"

New System Prompts appeared in succession:

【Current Form: Mirror Symbiote】

【Trait Inheritance: Retains basic mirror characteristics such as refraction and reflection.】

【Life Level: Higher Life】

【Life Maintenance Consumption: Transmitting 1 day of vitality will consume 10-15 days of lifespan】

【Confirm transmission?】

"Interesting. Venom in Marvel needs to parasitize humans, but my Venom can not only parasitize humans, it can even parasitize dead things and gain their properties. Hehe—"

Feng Mu habitually pushed up his glasses and carefully read the upgraded entry explanation for 【Grand Feast】 again.

【Grand Feast】: The blood of one's own kind is filled with an alluring fragrance. Devour them, and you shall gain immortality~

【You can add this lifespan to yourself, or transform and bestow it upon another/it.】

【Note: Corresponding loss will occur depending on the recipient's Life Level.】

【After the symbiote parasitizes the converted target, the symbiote will gain corresponding traits, and you will gain the following synergy effects:

1. Visual Synesthesia (real-time sharing of the symbiote's perception)

2. Anchor Tracking (locate the symbiote regardless of distance)

3. Proxy Consumption (the symbiote eating counts as you eating)

Feng Mu closed the Attribute Panel, lowered his head to size up the Venom that was only one meter tall, and raised his brow slightly:

"You're only this tall?"

Venom's exaggerated big mouth immediately drooped down, its pale eyeballs widened, and its tentacles twisted together in委屈:

"Kill... eat... grow tall quickly..."

Feng Mu chuckled lightly and casually raised his right hand.

Venom was a bit disappointed, but immediately turned into flowing black slime and obediently shot into his palm, seeping into his body.

The mirror that lost its host shattered all over the ground, lost its black color, and turned back into clean, transparent color.

Liu Yi knocked and entered from outside the door, saw the glass scum all over the ground, asked nothing, quickly cleaned it up and quit.

After the room door closed again, since there was nothing to do today, Feng Mu simply cleared his mind and cultivated.

While cultivating to a certain moment, Feng Mu suddenly opened his eyes, and a flash of inspiration struck in his Nao Hai:

"Since the symbiote can parasitize dead things, can shadows also be parasitized?"

His train of thought continued to extend:

"And equipment, Ghost Mist Cloak? Magician's Playing Cards Playing Cards? Or... Base Vehicle!!"
