Chapter 40 Activating Dual Evolution!
Big Head, positioned to Chen Fei's right rear, caught a whiff of the opponent's scent, took a small step back, regained his footing, and moved forward to catch up.
The aura was too strong, so he took a small step back.
Make it up.
They retreated again.
It circled there three times before finally stopping about half a meter behind the starting point, raising its head, straightening its ears, and displaying an expression more solemn than ever before.
The black-maned lion glanced at Chen Fei and then looked away.
It sniffed Chen Fei for a long time.
Its nostrils paused for a moment when it smelled the warm scent.
Chen Fei didn't move.
He scratched the back of his left ear with his hind leg, ran his knuckles along the base of his ear twice, then put his hind leg back down and turned his gaze back to the other person.
The black-maned lion stared at Chen Fei.
There is a silent rhythm in the standoff.
Two male lions stood, their breaths exchanging in the wind.
The black-maned lion took three steps forward.
He made tentative advances, each step carrying deliberate weight, his feet leaving slight indentations on the ground.
Chen Fei pushed the heat flow forward half a step from the charging position, not with full force, but simply to significantly increase the concentration of the burning aura and disperse it towards the opponent.
The black-maned lion did not take its fourth step.
Its front paws were raised, paused in the air for a second, then lowered back to their original positions.
Chen Fei took two steps forward.
At a steady pace, the heat in my limbs vibrates slightly with each step, and the burning sensation expands outward with each step as the ground vibrates.
The black-maned lion lowered its center of gravity slightly, sensing something.
There was a characteristic in Chen Fei's aura that it had never detected in the past five years.
Its glandular secretion system is built on five years of ruling experience; it has smelled almost every scent worth smelling on this grassland, and it has a complete evaluation system that has been calibrated over five years.
But this system failed with Chen Fei.
Meimei was to Chen Fei's left rear. When the aura of the black-maned lion pressed down in that direction, she didn't move. She shifted her weight slightly forward, but didn't lower her head.
Big Head, on his right rear side, rubbed the wound on his left shoulder against his right front leg, sniffed it, and then raised his head again with a serious expression.
The black-maned lion's gaze swept over Chen Fei, Mei Mei, and Da Tou before settling back on Chen Fei.
Chen Fei pushed the heat flow forward another half gear.
This time it pushed even deeper, seeping from the limbs to the tips of the claws. The tips of the claws pressed against the ground, and a trace of heat leaked out along with the pressure of the ground, carrying that burning texture, leaving a very fine trace in the smell of sand, a trace that only an extremely sensitive nose could detect.
The black-maned lion lowered its head and sniffed the ground.
After sniffing, it raised its head and moved half a body length to the right.
Giving way is a very ancient gesture rarely seen between lions, and it means very simply: you go first.
Chen Fei did not move.
He drew the heat back from his body to a position of recharge, allowing the intensity of the burning sensation to gradually decrease to a stable, non-aggressive level.
Then he let out a low hum.
The frequency that was tested was half a level lower. It came out from deep within the chest cavity, rolled around on the ground, and shook several weaverbirds on the surrounding grass off the grass stems, causing them to flutter and scatter in all directions.
The low growl reached the black-maned lion's location, causing its mane to stand up slightly along the back of its neck, then slowly flatten out again.
Chen Fei fell silent.
The black-maned lion stood still for about ten seconds, gathering all the information it needed to take with it, then turned and headed south.
It walked about eighty meters and disappeared into the open grassland on the south side.
The air was receding southward at a steady pace, like the tide.
Chen Fei followed the scent with his sense of smell for a while, until he reached the edge of his perception, and confirmed that the other party had no sign of turning back.

[Energy Points: 798↑]
Chen Fei suddenly felt a burning sensation in his eyes, which then quickly disappeared.
The heat flow in his limbs was somewhat depleted during this standoff, but the replenishment rate was faster than the depletion, and his energy points climbed another level after that low hum.
798.
Two points away from 800.
He could sense something approaching.
It wasn't a system prompt; it was a sensation from my body.
It's like something moving very slowly beneath the skin, gathering upwards.
Leading to the eye socket.
The energy points are still increasing.
Something deep within the sockets of both eyes began to heat up.
Like the burning heat deep within coal, it pushes all the way to behind the retina.
Chen Fei slowed down.
His field of vision remained unchanged, but at the edge of his field of vision, in the area his peripheral vision swept across, something was becoming slightly, inexplicably, clearer.
A blade of grass, twenty meters away, was originally just a line in his peripheral vision, but now the edge of that line has an outline, texture, and the direction of leaf veins.
He didn't move.
[Host: Chen Fei]
[Identity: Sub-adult male lion]
[Energy Points: 800↑]
The burning sensation deep within his eye sockets suddenly expanded outwards!
Then, circle after circle, it was as if something was slowly being ignited behind the eyeball.
Push forward from the deepest part of the retina, past the vitreous humor, to the cornea, and to the surface of the skin.
Chen Fei stopped in his tracks.
The heat suddenly tightens at a certain point, shrinking to an extremely thin line, like the last millimeter of a bowstring being fully drawn.
Then disconnect.
freed!
The heat exploded outward from deep within his eye sockets, blasting into his retina, his pupils, and his entire visual system. In that instant, Chen Fei's vision felt as if something had swept over it from the inside, redefining the meaning of every edge, every outline, and everything he thought he had seen clearly.
Big Head came up from behind and bumped his head directly into Chen Fei's lower back.
It hit hard.
The big head bumped against it with its lower jaw, and it took two steps back. It raised its head and looked Chen Fei up and down with a serious expression. Then it rubbed its nose with its front paws and continued to maintain its serious expression.
Chen Fei ignored it.

[Dual activation of night vision and super-long-range vision]
He raised his gaze toward the grassy area to the east.
At first glance, I didn't notice any difference.
The grassland is still grassland, the sky is still sky, and the distant horizon is still a blurry dividing line, no different from before evolution.
Chen Fei walked a few steps eastward and found a slightly elevated sandstone platform. He stepped onto it with all four paws and pushed his gaze to the eastern horizon as far as possible.
I still don't feel any difference.
He tilted his head to the right and focused his gaze on an acacia tree about 500 meters away.
trunk.
He could see the longitudinal cracks on the surface of the tree trunk.
It wasn't a blurry texture, but a concrete depiction of the direction of each crack, the black stains accumulated within them, and above the stains a small beetle moving about, its elytra bearing three asymmetrical orange spots.
500 meters.
Previously, all he could see from this distance was the outline of a tree.
What he was seeing now was the number of spots on a beetle's wing.
He continued to look into the distance.
One kilometer.
A kilometer away, there was a herd of zebras, about twelve in number, grazing with their heads down in the low grass. He could see the fine, short hairs on the inside of the ear of the zebra closest to him, as well as the arc of its jaw muscles contracting as it chewed.
Two kilometers.
The clarity at the edge of his field of vision began to decrease slightly, but only slightly; the outlines and individual identification were still present. He could distinguish the size difference between an adult male wildebeest and a sub-adult female wildebeest from two kilometers away.
He continued to look into the distance.
Three kilometers.
