Especially that Variant Species Musk Ox, which weighed over a ton.

This was a significant haul.

However, the crisis had not been completely averted. Having consumed the heart of the Variant Species Wolf King,

Su Lin, whose strength had slightly recovered, looked up at the enormous Grizzly Bear whose size had nearly reached five meters!

A relentless killing intent shone in his eyes, undiminished.

Having obtained three more Recovery Potions, Su Lin now had a total of five!

Therefore, he did not mind wasting one Recovery Potion to take down this Grizzly Bear too!

In one day, slaughtering five Variant Species,

there was no doubt Su Lin's feat would set an unprecedented record in the Arctic Tundra!

But just as Su Lin let out a low howl, signaling to Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom to clean up the battlefield, and he stepped forward once more,

he found that the Variant Species Grizzly Bear standing on the snow slope was retreating!

And the speed of its retreat was extremely fast!

"Aoow!"

Su Lin's somewhat hoarse wolf howl suddenly bellowed out!

He quickly pursued the Variant Species Grizzly Bear!

But since the battlefield was quite far from the snow slope,

he soon saw the Variant Species Grizzly Bear, radiating a green fluorescence, disappear from his sight at an incredibly fast pace!

Su Lin's mind raced, wanting to bring up the attributes of the Variant Species Grizzly Bear to see what that green fluorescence was exactly.

But he failed!

From this distance, he could not access the Variant Species Grizzly Bear's attributes.

However, Su Lin was certain that the green light was not the grizzly's Talent.

Because during the slaughter of that group of Poachers that day, he had seen the Talent of the Grizzly Bear,

which was a pale gray fluorescence that could greatly increase the Grizzly Bear's defensive power,

making its skin as hard as stone and steel, impervious to harm from ordinary rifles.

But if that green light was not a Talent, what was it?

Just now, even Su Lin had felt a sense of danger from the green fluorescence!

And even Su Lin's remarkably acute sense of smell had detected a scent in the green light that did not belong to the grizzly.

"Hmm? Could it be that this Variant Species Grizzly Bear has stumbled upon another stroke of luck?"

His eyes were filled with a bone-chilling glint.

Although this Variant Species Grizzly Bear was timid and cherished its own life, its luck had always been enviable among other Species.

The last time at the Ice Mountain fissure,

even without obtaining the Ice Mountain Lotus, by devouring Polar Ice Worms day after day, it had greatly increased its strength.

Should it encounter another stroke of luck this time, Su Lin would not mind thwarting it once more!

The thought of the Ice Mountain Lotus and its thousands upon thousands of Evolution Points still lingered in his mind.

"But why would the Variant Species Grizzly Bear run when I'm so weak at the moment?"

Su Lin stood on the snow slope, a hint of confusion in his blood-stained Wolf Eyes.

However, he didn't dwell on it much longer,

for although he failed to kill the grizzly, he did save a Recovery Potion.

As for his doubts, he believed they would be answered in the future.

And that green fluorescence gave Su Lin the feeling that perhaps in the future, he might gain some surprises from the Variant Species Grizzly Bear.

"Huff... huff..."

The rapid sprint had completely exhausted the bit of Physical Strength Value Su Lin had recovered.

His limbs felt weak as he forced himself on wobbly legs to the corpse of the Variant Species Musk Ox,

panting intensely to recover his strength while also sucking several big mouthfuls of blood from the wound on its neck!

The blood of the Variant Species Musk Ox was sweet and delicious, quickly transforming into a substantial amount of energy once inside the body.

"Ding! The host has consumed Variant Species Musk Ox, gaining 45 Evolution Points,"

came the light grey message about the Evolution Points.

The blood, flowing into the stomach, replenished some Physical Strength for the utterly exhausted Su Lin.

Wolf Dad and Wolf Mom had also gone through a brutal battle,

with three members of the Wolf Clan under the command of Wolf Father fallen, and the rest of the Wolf Clan more or less injured.

However, they were still faring much better than Su Lin as they were collectively dragging the prey together.

This was the territory of the Wolf Pack, where hunters wouldn't usually dare to come and plunder.

But just in case, Su Lin let out a low howl,

signaling Wolf Father to dispatch a member of the Wolf Clan to gather Little Lone Wolf and Xiao Hui.

"Ao!"

Wolf Father responded readily.

After this fierce battle, Wolf Father had deeply felt his inadequacies.

Just the fact that a large Wolf Clan had infiltrated his ranks undetected spoke volumes of his significant dereliction of duty as the Lead Wolf.

Moreover, after evolving into a Variant Species and gaining significantly more intelligence, he no longer regarded his own authority too seriously.

Especially towards his own offspring and spouse, Wolf Father would no longer assert his authority as the Lead Wolf.

Add to that, today Wolf Father had thoroughly witnessed the terrifying combat strength of Su Lin.

The strength far exceeded his imagination.

Initially, Wolf Father had thought this was an apocalypse for the Wolf Pack, ready to face death alongside Wolf Mom.

He only hoped his offspring could escape.

But never did he imagine that Su Lin had no intention of fleeing,

and single-handedly caused the wolves to scatter, with the Wolf King dying in his blood!

Meanwhile, he, leading only a dozen members of the Wolf Clan, barely held off some thirty wolves of the enemy's clan.

This disparity made Wolf Father realize his place and he started to obediently follow the words of his offspring.

With a low howl, he sent out a Wolf Clan member with some remaining Physical Strength to call for Xiao Hui and the others from Su Lin's territory.

This member of the Wolf Clan was an experienced veteran and naturally recognized the scents of Xiao Hui and Cousin.

"Ao! Ao!"

After receiving the orders with successive low howls, it swiftly ran towards the direction of Su Lin's territory.

Meanwhile, after greedily sucking up a considerable amount of fresh blood, Su Lin finally regained some strength and had also acquired many Evolution Points.

He stood up again and thoroughly opened up the belly of the Variant Species Musk Ox, searching for essential parts.

It had been two or three hours since the Variant Species Musk Ox had died, and it was uncertain how much of the Talent Essence on the essential parts had dissipated.

As soon as Su Lin flayed the musk ox, he quickly located the essential parts within.

The essence of the Variant Species Musk Ox was substantial, comprising a piece of brisket.

The brisket has always been a popular edible part of various cattle species.

And the brisket of this Variant Species Musk Ox was emitting a faint fluorescence and aroma.

The presence of an aroma indicated that the Talent Essence on the brisket hadn't dissipated, causing Su Lin's appetite to surge as he began to devour it eagerly.

This brisket weighed a good twelve or thirteen jin.

But under Su Lin's voracious consumption, it entered his stomach in less than two minutes.

After all, Su Lin's form had already reached a full four meters in size, taking bites amounting to nearly one jin of meat at a time.

The meat from the essential parts was incredibly delicious.

Not only was it tender and enjoyable to chew, but it also had the aroma of Talent Essence, making it a feast for all senses!

After consuming the brisket, two light grey messages appeared in front of Su Lin.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming Variant Species Musk Ox Brisket (Level 11), gaining 600 Evolution Points."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for consuming the remaining Talent Essence of the Variant Species Musk Ox and refining a dose of Talent Serum (Substandard)."
