System: Infinite Evolution into Qilin Bloodline

The fat man's voice trembled slightly, as if even the air itself had frozen in fear.

"That giant insect was a nightmare in nature. Every outline of it painted a terrifying picture, like a demon crawling out of the abyss, silently waiting for its prey to approach."

As he spoke, he unconsciously shrank back, his eyes filled with awe and a desire to avoid the unknown.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Hao gazed intently at the enormous creature, his heart churning, but his outward appearance remained remarkably calm.

He pondered to himself, "Indeed, that insect is like a mobile red fortress, exuding an aura of inviolability."

However, since it is currently bound by chains and unable to move, why should we make trouble for ourselves? Thinking of this, Zhang Hao nodded slightly, a faint smile appearing on his lips, as if to express his understanding and reassurance of the fat man's worries.

Seeing this, Wu Tianzhen quickly chimed in, "Yes, our purpose here is to find the Phoenix Feather, not to confront such a terrifying creature."

"The fat man is right. It's better to avoid trouble. Let's use strategy and quietly bypass him from the side, then continue on our way."

So the group carefully adjusted their steps, like dancers walking on the edge of a knife, each step taken with extreme caution.

They kept a low profile and made as little noise as possible, for fear of disturbing the sleeping giant.

As they drew closer, the insect's full appearance became increasingly clear, and its terrifying nature left everyone speechless.

The insect's body seemed to be carved from ancient rocks, each carapace shimmering with a dark luster, like the deepest star in the night sky.

Its tentacles, like twisted vines, stretch freely in the air, seemingly able to see the secrets of all things in the world.

And those enormous compound eyes were even more chilling; they seemed like two gates leading to an abyss, ready to devour any creature that dared to peek into their secrets.

Even more bizarrely, the corpses floating on the water were either incomplete or twisted and deformed, as if they were cursed by some unknown force and could never rest in peace.

The corpses formed a stark and eerie contrast with the giant worm, adding to the horror and unease of the scene.

As Zhang Hao and his group passed by the giant worm from the side, the giant worm suddenly pounced at them.

As soon as it approached, a system notification sounded in Zhang Hao's mind.

[Ding! Rare item, Undying Worm, detected.]

[Ding! Rare item Blue Toad detected.]

"Ok?"

Zhang Hao never expected to encounter two special items at once. If he fused them all, he would gain 20 points of bloodline evolution progress and 20 points of system experience, bringing him very close to the level 10 system and the ninth-tier Qilin bloodline.

Having finally come across two rare items, I certainly couldn't miss them.

"Back off!" Zhang Hao roared, and at the same time, his figure sprang up like lightning, rushing towards the immortal worm, protecting Wu Tianzhen, Fatty and Zhang Qilin behind him.

His movements were swift and powerful, each step carrying immense force, demonstrating the formidable strength he had accumulated through long-term training.

Faced with this sudden attack, the Undying Worm let out a piercing scream, its huge body drawing an arc in the air, trying to avoid Zhang Hao's sharp edge.

However, Zhang Hao had anticipated the enemy's move. He leaped forward, clenched his right fist, gathered all his strength, and slammed it hard against the seemingly indestructible shell of the Undying Worm.

With a deafening roar, the surrounding rocks trembled.

The body of the immortal worm shattered instantly, like a ceramic jar broken by a heavy hammer. Countless black fragments scattered in all directions. At the same time, a thick red mist surged out from the crack, quickly filling the entire space and shrouding everything in a hazy mist.

Everyone was shocked by Zhang Hao's astonishing power, and at the same time, they were deeply wary of the undead worm's strange abilities.

However, just when they thought the crisis was over, the scattered fragments of the undead insect began to recombine at a visible speed under the red mist, as if some mysterious force was driving them.

In no time, the shattered undead worm returned to its original state, even more ferocious and terrifying than before. The red mist surrounding it was also thicker, revealing a terrifying aura of immortality.

It roared to the sky, its voice filled with anger and resentment, as if declaring its immortality to Zhang Hao and the others.

"This...how is this possible?!"

The fat man stared wide-eyed, muttering to himself in disbelief.

Wu Tianzhen and Zhang Qilin were also astonished. They had never seen such a bizarre and powerful creature before, and a sense of powerlessness arose in their hearts.

This was the first time Zhang Hao had encountered a monster whose shattered body could actually heal, and he was very curious.

If such terrifying insects were to be fused, could one also gain the same abilities? If so, that would be incredibly powerful.

However, before that, we must first figure out how to kill the immortal worms.

Everything in the world has its counterpart; no matter how powerful something is, it always has its weaknesses. Even an immortal insect, although its body can heal in a short time, does not mean that it is truly immortal. As long as you find the right method, you can definitely kill it.

Zhang Hao slowly approached the immortal worm. Its enormous body had recovered, and the immortal worm's regenerative ability was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

The Palm Lightning technique, which contains the power of lightning, can instantly release a powerful electric current, enough to paralyze or even kill ordinary creatures.

However, when Zhang Hao gathered all his strength and struck the undead worm's hard shell with his palm, he only heard a soft "crack" sound. The power of the palm lightning seemed to be neutralized by some mysterious force on the shell, leaving only a faint scorch mark.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao frowned, but he was not discouraged. Instead, he quickly adjusted his strategy.

With a thought, Zhang Hao sent out dozens of seeds at the same time. Like bullets with eyes, they accurately struck the immortal worm, instantly turning its body into a cloud of red mist.

However, the red mist receded again in the next second, and the immortal worm's body was restored once more.

Zhang Hao understood that the key to killing the Undying Worm lay in the red mist; only by eliminating the red mist could the Undying Worm be completely killed.

Just then, a thought suddenly flashed through Zhang Hao's mind.

The eternal chill is an extremely rare and powerful natural force capable of freezing the life force of all living things.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hao felt a sudden thought and a wisp of cold air appeared out of thin air.

Although they were far away, everyone could still feel the bone-chilling cold emanating from the cold air mass, as if it could freeze everything around them.
