The hellhound’s appearance had already halfway transformed into that of a Hell Flame Wolf.
The irregular shape made everything look so bizarre.
Tang Feiji furrowed his brows and said,
"Can we still eat this meat later?"
Bai Mansheng glared at Tang Feiji. Although in Tang Xian’s fabricated version of "The Legend of the White Snake," the hellhound clan played the role of Fahai’s forces, leading to Bai’s dislike for the species, she could still see that this hellhound was in tremendous pain.
Tang Xian remained silent.
Dog meat was always edible, the question was what kind of dog meat you ate.
Under the current circumstances, was it a Hell Flame Wolf or a hellhound?
"I really wish I had X-ray vision so I could see how its Soul Crystal is changing."
As Tang Xian thought this, the hellhound underwent another transformation.
Now, most of its body had become that of a Hell Flame Wolf, but a small part still bore the characteristics of a hellhound.
The most shocking scene was about to unfold before Tang Xian.
The Hell Flame Wolf part of the creature began to transform anew.
Black flames slowly seeped out from its skin, and its originally brown fur started to rapidly darken.
Bai Mansheng suddenly became alert, her Soul Crystal sensing the presence of a creature of the same tier.
She looked incredulously at the hellhound.
This creature, which was still at the elite stage, had first evolved to the perfect stage, and then started to exhibit signs of evolution into the calamity stage.
Tang Xian noticed this scene as well.
The current hellhound had only a small part of its head retaining the characteristics of a hellhound.
The rest of its body was mostly that of a Hell Flame Wolf, with a small part distinctly taking on the form of a Tengu.
It was as if three different creatures were merged into one.
Even though it was related to the evolutionary chain, this state of evolution, which hadn’t been completed before starting anew, shocked Tang Xian.
His knowledge level was even higher than some of the doctors in the evolution area.
And yet, even so, it was Tang Xian’s first time witnessing such a shocking event.
"The fruit from the Zudun sacred tree indeed brings evolution, but what color is this hellhound’s Soul Crystal now? Or does it, like that fruit, display a multitude of colors?"
Microscopic elements often unlock the secrets of broader levels.
Just as humans understand the cosmos and stars, they must also understand molecules and atoms.
And the mutual support of both has led to advanced physics fields.
For Tang Xian, understanding the origin of the Soul Crystal might be another way to unravel the various mysteries of this world.
Tang Feiji looked at their expressions and was unconcerned.
After all, they were but foolish humans and weak snakes.
It was just a little dog after all; even if it evolved to a purple-tier existence—it would still be just a purple-tier dog.
The evolution of the hellhound continued, the Hell Flame Wolf part slowly transitioning into a Tengu.
Tang Xian’s keen sense of smell told him that many creatures had already stopped approaching.

They were even retreating continuously.
When the fruit of the Zudun sacred tree was completely absorbed, especially with the addition of roughly half of a calamity-tier boss creature, plus Tang Feiji and Bai Mansheng, such a powerful presence naturally caused all beasts in the blue zone to scatter.
And with that, the evolution drew towards its final phase.
The only hellhound trait remaining was a single pupil.
The remainder of its form was mostly that of a Hell Flame Wolf, with a small part turned into a Tengu.
The black flames originated from the Tengu part, but these flames were unbearable for the Hell Flame Wolf, or rather, the hellhound.
It howled in agony, and Tang Xian didn’t even know what species the canine creature before him was anymore.
"I am in so much pain, kill me! Please, kill me!"
The voice of the hellhound was filled with frenzy and torment.
Tang Xian watched the scene and nodded slightly.
There was no need to continue observing. Neither the primary nor the secondary evolution was complete, meaning that due to the overly rapid pace, it skipped natural evolutionary rhythms, resulting in the hellhound’s extremely abnormal state.

Even if he didn’t kill it, it would die from the Tengu’s flames.
"Tang Feiji, kill it," Tang Xian said softly.
Tang Feiji did not ask any questions. A flash of orange light twinkled in his Dragon Eyes, and an ice spike penetrated the hellhound’s head.
"Can you melt it down?" Tang Xian looked at Tang Feiji.
"Aren’t you going to eat the dog meat?" Tang Feiji was still thinking about the meat.
"This dog is probably inedible."
Tang Feiji pursed his lips but ultimately complied.
Dragon flames began to consume the hellhound’s body.
Tang Xian stood by, quietly watching everything.
This hellhound actually had significant experimental value, but it couldn’t be taken back to the Pyramid; it was simply too big.
The only option was to extract its Soul Crystal and give it to Shang Lu’s wife for research.
Bai Mansheng, thoughtfully watching the dragon flames incinerate the hellhound, said,
"I remember reading in books that humans seem to really like dogs. Dogs are man’s best friend, or so they say. But there also seem to be quite a few humans who really like to eat dog meat."
After a moment’s thought, Bai Mansheng said,
"Humans really are complex creatures."
Tang Xian replied with a smile,
"It’s foolish to love every single creature of a species."
"What do you mean by that? So you no longer like the people of my Nvwa Snake Clan?"
"We tend to like just one aspect of something. If humans cannot even manage to love everyone, how can they love everything? If you find Tang Xian interesting, would you like all humans?"
