When Ye Wen absorbed the entire Devil Core, he didn't feel that sensation of his Pre-cancerous Cells being filled with energy at the time.
It seemed like one such item wasn't enough energy, and he needed to continue absorbing energy to allow the Pre-cancerous Cells to keep dividing.
Ye Wen packed his things and set off again.
Since he had absorbed a lot of energy just now, he wasn't in the mood to eat Ape Meat. After all, it was humanoid. The sudden urge to eat it was purely out of anger. He was walking peacefully when he was ambushed and almost died. That was an emergency reaction after extreme rage.
Now, Ye Wen was full of confidence after killing the Ape Giant Beast.
Along the way, he was no longer as cautious as he was at the beginning. Even if he encountered another Giant Beast, Ye Wen would try to fight it, of course, only those that didn't look too big.
But what frustrated him was that many of those Giant Beasts could spit fire, wind, or water.
The skill attacks they spat out were something Ye Wen couldn't withstand at all.
So Ye Wen came to a very depressing conclusion: he couldn't defeat Giant Beasts that possessed skill attacks.
Some Giant Beasts were even incredibly fast, attacking and retreating with ease, which completely destroyed the confidence Ye Wen had built up from the Ape Giant Beast.
After that, Ye Wen stopped provoking Giant Beasts and just hurried on his way, wanting to leave this damned place as soon as possible.
He continued to hurry along, and after a few days, Ye Wen suddenly heard sounds of fighting ahead, as well as a woman's crying and screaming.
Finally, he encountered humans again, and Ye Wen was incredibly excited.
So he quickly ran over and saw a troop of soldiers protecting a young woman.
Behind them, a Giant Beast that looked like a tiger was chasing them.
Well, to be precise, it was toying with them, like a cat playing with a mouse.
Among them, a middle-aged man in a green shirt was fending off the Giant Tiger, and it looked like he couldn't hold on for much longer.
The soldiers were unable to harm the Giant Tiger at all. They could only help the middle-aged man by attacking the Giant Tiger to distract it when it was about to attack.
But the consequence was that whoever went died. Over a dozen soldiers had already died along the way.
At this moment, the girl was filled with despair.
Just now, the Giant Tiger pounced, and although two soldiers blocked it with their bodies, the girl was so frightened that she stumbled and fell.
When the girl got up and saw the Giant Tiger pouncing again, she instinctively cried out in despair.
Fortunately, the middle-aged man fearlessly flew forward and once again blocked the Giant Tiger's pounce. However, it was just a dying struggle. If there were no miracles, everyone would become a vengeful spirit under the Giant Beast's claws.
A few soldiers took the opportunity to rescue the girl who had fallen to the ground, dragging her as they fled again.
Seeing this, Ye Wen didn't continue watching. If he watched any longer, this group of people would all die.
He took out his dagger and, while the Giant Tiger was being held back by the middle-aged man, he swiftly pounced, slashing his dagger towards the Giant Tiger's throat.
But the Giant Tiger was very agile. At the critical moment, it dodged in mid-air, avoiding Ye Wen's sneak attack.
Although his throat wasn't cut, the dagger still left a bloody gash on the Giant Tiger's foreleg.
Because of Ye Wen's sudden appearance, he saved this small team that was about to be massacred.
When the middle-aged man saw Ye Wen, he understood that if they didn't repel this Giant Tiger this time, it would mean complete annihilation.
So he roared, "Charge together and kill the ferocious tiger!"
The remaining 8 soldiers obeyed and approached the Giant Tiger, ready to fight to the death.
Ye Wen suddenly shouted at this moment.
"You guys find a chance to sneak attack it, I'll attract its attention."
With that, he charged forward alone. Ye Wen noticed that this Giant Tiger was a type of Giant Beast with extremely fast attacks.
It hadn't even used its skills yet. He didn't know if it couldn't or wouldn't. If it used its skills, these people would have already died.
He couldn't worry about that now. With the middle-aged man helping to restrain the Giant Tiger, its speed was significantly limited.
So Ye Wen pounced again.
The middle-aged man, startled, shouted.
"Be careful, the Giant Tiger's attacks are incredibly powerful. Touching it means death or serious injury."
Ye Wen turned a deaf ear and closed in.
The Giant Tiger, seeing that the person hurting it was actually charging forward alone, also excitedly pounced.
Only a "thud" was heard. The Giant Tiger slammed its palm onto Ye Wen's back, but before the Giant Tiger could hit Ye Wen, Ye Wen's dagger once again sliced through another patch of the Giant Tiger's fur, and blood gushed out.
Taking advantage of the Giant Tiger's injury, the others attacked it again with their weapons.
The Giant Tiger roared in pain and prepared to pounce on them again. But it didn't notice that Ye Wen, who had been knocked to the ground by its palm, had pounced again.
