Naturally, this enlargement was not limitless. When the body of the pig increased to more than a meter, it had reached its peak.
This enhanced modulation had consumed two hundred pieces of flesh.
Naturally, the most important point was that after consuming the flesh, 500 evolution points had been consumed.
Luckily, the cost was only 500 evolution points, which left him relieved.
Next, Wei Xiao Bei immediately gave it the ability of [Skin Hardening]. This was an ability originally possessed by the Dang Kang. It consumed a hundred pieces of flesh and 200 evolution points.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei granted the High-Temperature Bird’s wings on the first foundational creature. This time the consumption was big.
The flesh consumed amounted to five hundred. It must be known that the capacity of the Fledgling Life Altar was only three thousand.
In other words, the storage was almost clean.
Wei Xiao Bei had no choice but to pull out a Dang Kang’s corpse from his storage bracelet. Then from his palm, tendrils shot out and inserted into the corpse to absorb it.
A total of five hundred pieces of flesh and 1000 evolution points were consumed.
This made Wei Xiao Bei feel hurt.
If he had not wildly farmed evolution points and increased it to 11080 points, he would have felt even more hurt.
Wei Xiao Bei’s evolution points were currently unable to make ends meet.
This also made him cancel his plans of moving the High-Temperature Brid’s high-temperature ability to the first foundational creature.
He had no choice as a pair of wings had cost him 1000 evolution points. If he moved the special ability, he might need to spend 3000 evolution points for it.
If that happened, Wei Xiao Bei would rather just use enhanced modulation on the High-Temperature Birds. In that case, the cost would be lower.
At this point, he ended enhanced modulation. However, before he ended it, Wei Xiao Bei used bestowal and gave [Web of Roots] to the foundational creature.
This had consumed 3000 evolution points!
It could be said that bestowal had great costs.
It was possible to see the cost of bestowal before it comes to effect.
Wei Xiao Bei had already seen it before.
If he bestows the [Release Electricity] special skill, then he would need to use up 6000 evolution points. Moreover, after the bestowal, the special skill will be at its most basic stage. If he wanted to make it stronger, he had to insert more evolution points.
In other words, if Wei Xiao Bei wanted the foundational creature to obtain a strong [Release Electricity], he would at least need to spend 20,000 or maybe 30,000 evolution points, and this was just a conservative estimate.
However, this kind of consumption was also worth it.
The reason was simple. If he bestows it on the foundational creature template, then the foundational creatures that would be bred would possess this ability.
If he only bestowed it on one foundational creature, then the consumption would be small. However, only one foundational creature would have it. This was a major difference.
Between one time use and continuous use, continuous use was a lot more profitable in the long run.
Naturally, this depended on Wei Xiao Bei’s evolution points. Now, even if Wei Xiao Bei himself was sold off, it might not even gather enough evolution points.
Now, the enhanced modulation on the foundational creature template had been finalized.
After filling up the storages of the Fledgling Life Altar, the Dang Kang’s corpse was left with bones and four small legs.
Wei Xiao Bei immediately moved his left hands toward the legs and wrapped them up into a two-inch ball.
When the ball broke open, a wild boar whose body was wet came out. When its body came out it was around two inches large.
It appeared to be very hungry as it devoured the ball. Its body also expanded as if the air was blown in. After it finished eating, it expanded to around a meter.
1.5 meters was the limit of bred creatures. It looked like a half-sized breeder pig.
Compared to the Weakling Pig or the First Foundational Creature, this pig was a lot stronger.
Wei Xiao Bei threw a [Status Appraisal] on it. This Third Foundational Creature was a lot stronger than the High-Temperature Birds. It had directly become a 2-Star Elite Creature.
The effects of enhanced modulation was a success.

......
For this Third Foundational Creature, Wei Xiao Bei had directly named it Digging Pig.
It could be said that just from its status, its strength, agility, and vitality had exceeded Huang Kun’s.
Moreover, it had 8 intelligence. This was not low, although the intelligence of monsters had a limit. However, many normal people only had 8 in their intelligence.
No matter what was said, Wei Xiao Bei was very satisfied with this Digging Pig. It was truly worth it for him to pay a high price for it.
Its special points were its high power, strong defense, and high regeneration. Moreover, the [Charge] skill and the [Explosive Charge] special skill could increase its agility to terrifying levels.
However, this was not the end. Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei touched the Digging Pig with his left hand as tendrils once again wrapped it up. Blood and flesh entered the ball and in around ten seconds, Wei Xiao Bei used up another five hundred pieces of flesh. This was the limit that the Life Altar was capable of inputting.
At this time, the ball already expanded to three meters and soon suddenly cracked open.
A Digging Pig the size of three meters dug out from within the ball. Its large snout twitched a few times. Not only did it swallow the ball, it even dug the ground everywhere, creating a hole in the ground. Its [Dig] skill was a lot stronger than the wild boar.
When the ball was digested, the Digging Pig suddenly grew to six meters. Its body appeared to be a lot stronger than an elephant. Even the Dang Kang might appear inferior to it.
Looking at its status, it had elevated it from 2-Star Elite to 2-Star Terror. Its status values were also close to a 3-Star Creature’s.
It could be said that Wei Xiao Bei’s investments had made the Fledgling Life Altar show its true potential.
Under Wei Xiao Bei’s command, the Digging Pig dug the ground and immediately ran toward the black smoke.
The sound of the elephant-sized Digging Pig was quite loud.
Not only did the Border Patroller move his gaze, but Wei Xiao Bei could even feel the black oval in the fog move its gaze.
Luckily, the gaze was on the Digging Pig’s body as it completely ignored him.
The Digging Pig was too imposing. Although it was only close to a 3-Star Creature, its strength made it appear like a 3-Star Elite Creature.
As it was running, the Digging Pig used its [Charge] skill. As it approached the plaza, it activated [Explosive Charge]. In a flash, its speed increased even more. It was now like a heavy truck charging toward the black fog, striking against the black oval.
At this moment, the giant rock had already expanded to five meters in size. In terms of size, it appeared close to the Digging Pig, but under the Digging Pig’s charge, a crack had appeared in it.
On the contrary, the Digging Pig’s head was also badly bruised but it appeared to be all fine. It snorted and charged out of the plaza.
Soon, the Digging Pig once again charged into the plaza and activated its [Explosive Charge], like a night charging at a tank.
Boom!
A loud sound once again echoed. The black oval boulder unexpectedly rocked as another crack appeared.
After repeating a few times, the Digging Pig had knocked itself dizzy in front of the boulder.
However, its desperate charges were not useless.
Following the appearance of the crack on the boulder, the black particles that were continuously pouring into the rock had decreased. On the other hand, the smoke pillar that was as tall as the heavens began to wane.
Wei Xiao Bei’s intuition was telling him that the danger was weakening.
That was right. The black smoke pillar appeared to be absorbing energy from somewhere, seeming to wish to breed some kind of creature from the black oval boulder.
Wei Xiao Bei smiled, this was a point that was similar to him. It was also similar to the Dark Priest’s origins.
However, he was using flesh and evolution points, while the Dark Priest was gaining power from who knows where.
“AO!”
A roar echoed from the black oval boulder. The black oval boulder exploded open as countless rock fragments were sent flying, engulfing the black smoke covering the church and dissipating the smoke pillar.
At this time, the Shing Wong Broder Patroller stood up. His eyes glinted as he stared at the monster that was about to come out of the black oval boulder.
Wei Xiao Bei’s gaze also landed on the creature.
After looking, Wei Xiao Bei could not help but be stunned. The monster was familiar-looking. As he blinked again he recognized it.
Isn’t this the famous centaur?
However, its form appears to be closer to a demonized creature in games.
There were two curved horns on its head and its body was dark red. The upper half was human and the head appeared to be a mix of a goat and a human. It had grown a long red beard, and its body bulged with muscles. The bottom half was that of a horse with four legs and it had grown a pair of wings out of its back. It held a shield on its left hand and a two-headed hammer on its right hand. It was more than three meters tall.
