In the dim cave, Su Bai was still eating.

His food was still the semi-solid balls brought by the worker ants, but compared to before, his eating speed had increased more than tenfold.

Originally, it took him over a dozen bites to finish a semi-solid ball, but now he could eat one in a single bite.

Because in just a few days, his body size had increased several times!

By the standards of his previous life, the worker ants in the cave were about 0.8 centimeters long, and the newly born larvae were only 0.3 centimeters. But now, Su Bai’s body was a full 1.2 centimeters long.

Correspondingly, his four-dimensional attributes had also undergone significant changes.

When he was first born, Su Bai’s four-dimensional attributes were: Strength 0.008, Agility 0.005, Constitution 0.002, Spirit 0.03. Now, his attributes were:

【Name】: Su Bai

【Species】: Ant

【Rank】: Dim-Level

【Level】: Dim-Level

【Attributes】: Strength 0.05 (Ant Limit), Agility 0.05 (Ant Limit), Constitution 0.05 (Ant Limit), Spirit 0.1

【Talents】: Soul Point Allocation (Soul Talent), Devour Evolution (Unique Talent), Adaptability (Species Talent)

【Skills】: None

Compared to before, Su Bai’s four-dimensional attributes had increased tenfold!

Compared to humans and real monsters, his attributes were insignificant. But within the ant species, he was undoubtedly a giant!

And this was just the first step in his evolution!

—

After days of frenzied eating, Su Bai had grown from a larva into an adult ant.

His four-dimensional attributes had also reached their limits.

After reaching the limit of an ant’s attributes, the experience gained from eating the semi-solid balls had become negligible.

To continue improving, he needed to eat different foods.

[Devour Evolution: Even the weakest insect has infinite potential. With the Devour Evolution talent, you can gain experience through eating, and specific items can provide gene points and evolution points. Sufficient gene and evolution points can allow you to evolve from an insect into a higher form of life.]

After glancing at the description of his Devour Evolution talent on the attribute panel, Su Bai prepared to leave the cave.

Staying in this cave was certainly safe, and the simple-minded worker ants would continuously bring him food, ensuring he wouldn’t starve. But this singular diet, suitable only for larvae, had its limits.

Staying here would mean he would always remain an ant, eventually dying as one.

“It’s time to leave.”

Su Bai turned and looked around.

The once bustling cave had become empty, as most of the larvae had hatched and become adult ants, joining their respective groups and starting their work.

Those who hadn’t hatched would never get the chance to emerge.

“Eat…

“Eat…”

The strange scent came again.

The worker ant that had been bringing food to Su Bai appeared.

Placing a semi-solid ball in front of Su Bai, the worker ant released pheromones, urging him to eat quickly.

With almost no intelligence, this worker ant couldn’t understand why Su Bai had grown so large in just a few days, nor did it know that Su Bai was now much stronger than it.

It was a worker ant, responsible for transporting food for the larvae.

As long as Su Bai stayed here, it would continue to bring food.

“I have to go.”

Looking down at the much smaller worker ant, Su Bai gently touched its antennae with his own and silently said, “Thank you.”

After one last glance at the cave he was born in, Su Bai crawled along the dark tunnel towards the outside.

Behind him, the worker ant picked up the food, moved its tiny antennae in confusion, and released another scent.

“Eat…

“…Not eating?”

—

Su Bai didn’t know what the world looked like to other ants.

In his vision, the world was still the same.

He could clearly distinguish various colors, smell different scents in the tunnel, and taste the sweetness of the larvae food.

As he continued along the tunnel, Su Bai’s view suddenly expanded.

A tunnel about three centimeters high and nearly ten centimeters wide appeared before him.

In this tunnel, hundreds of worker ants were scurrying around, almost all carrying bits of food. He even saw a group of worker ants dragging a dried-up green worm’s corpse into the depths of the cave.

“Food!”

Seeing all this, Su Bai was overjoyed.

To him, food meant power.

If the larvae food in the cave could still provide him with significant experience, he might have stayed there his whole life!

Just as he was about to leave the ant nest, he was greeted with a greater variety and abundance of food.

Especially that dried-up green worm’s corpse — just a glance and Su Bai couldn’t look away.

He had a feeling that eating that green worm’s corpse would bring him great benefits!

Without hesitation.

Su Bai rushed forward and took a bite of the green worm’s corpse.

[Feeding… gained 2 experience…]

[Feeding… gained 3 experience…]

[Ding! You devoured the green worm’s corpse and obtained 1 Green Worm Gene.]
