I Can Absorb Animal Abilities

Chapter 8: First Stumbling Block

Swoosh!

He took off in search of the food.

His target had changed from normal-looking animals to abnormal looking. There was a slight chance of them being mutated beasts.

"Maybe I can find QI absorbing ability from one of them." He was hopeful about it.

He climbed to an altitude of 2 km (6500 ft) and started scouting for any abnormal-looking animal.

After minutes of careful searching, he spotted a herd of rabbits. They looked like normal rabbits except for the fact they had a sharp horn on their head.

"I should check one of them." He dove and caught one of the rabbits.

He flew to a tall tree with the prey in his claws. Once he reached there, he quickly disposed of his prey.

[Congratulation to the host for eliminating the horned rabbit!]

[You have obtained 2 Evo points1]

"So, it wasn't mutated?"

It was different from the rabbits in his previous world. However, it seemed to be normal here.

He had no interest in normal animals, but he didn't want his prey to go to waste. So, he was contemplating what he should do about it.

Suddenly he remembered, "I can sell it to the system."

"System, I want to sell the rabbit."

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

[Horned Rabbit]

[Selling Price: 5 Evo points]

"Sell."

[Host has obtained 5 Evo points!]

Swoosh!

He took off and went for the hunt again.

He went to the same location again and carefully inspected every horned rabbit while flying in a circle.

He wanted to check if anyone of them had a unique feature. Suddenly, he spotted something red.

His sharp vision allowed him to get a clear view of a red-horned rabbit trying to blend in with others.

"It must be their leader. I must catch it."

It was blending with other rabbits, so he couldn't afford to make any mistakes.

He flew to an altitude of 10000 ft(3.1 km) and started diving below.

"Breeze." His speed suddenly increased to 320 kmph.

After 30 seconds, he had already reached the prey, so he used his claws to grab the red-horned rabbit.

Other rabbits were left astonished, everything happened too quickly for them to react.

As usual, he took the prey to a tree and disposed of it.

[Congratulations to the host for eliminating the mutated horned rabbit]

[You have obtained 5 Evo points!]

"No ability drop? System what is the chance of rare ability drop?"

"5%."

"Well, I can forget about the drop then."

Feeling hopeless, he started eating the rabbit. Unlike last time, there was no change in his ability, only his hunger was gone.

He suddenly had an idea about getting rid of threats from his surrounding, but he quickly gave up on his idea.

He could still remember his mistake from the previous reincarnation, and he would not repeat the same mistake. So, he decided to co-exist with others.

He was on his way home when he suddenly spotted a group of wild boars.

They were different from any animals he had encountered before. Their entire skin was bronze and it was glowing. He could also feel an intimidating aura coming off them.

"They must be the real mutated realm beast." He had guessed because of their aura.

He searched for a wild boar that was separated from the herd and tried attacking it.

However, to his surprise, his attack didn't even leave a single scratch on its skin.

Not convinced, he flew high and started diving.

"Breeze." His speed increased substantially!

"Contract." He also strengthened his body by 5 times.

However, to his dismay, there were only claw marks on its skin.

"I couldn't even penetrate its skin even after using my full force!" He was shocked.

Feeling defeated, he flew towards home.

"I should become stronger first."

Side note:

I will be using the term 'animal' for normal animals and 'beast' for animals that can cultivate.
