Reborn as a Snake: Many Children, Many Blessings, Only I, the Green Snake Immortal

Creatures living deep in the mountains, if given the opportunity to absorb the essence of the sun and moon, can be called spirits or monsters.

Only when one's cultivation becomes more profound and one gains sentience can one be called a demon!

The difference between the two is huge. Most mountain spirits and wild demons are ignorant and only have a little instinct until they die.

Once demons gain intelligence and develop more desires, they will naturally take the initiative to devour the essence of the sun and moon, thus becoming much stronger.

Xu Qing already possessed intelligence, and now with a century of profound cultivation, transforming into a demon was a natural progression.

"Your 101st offspring has been born. His physique is inferior. You have gained six months of cultivation!"

The system notification sounded again.

Somewhere in the jungle, one of Xu Qing's snake wives began laying eggs.

However, it seemed that his physique was not good enough. More than a dozen notifications sounded in a row, and they all indicated that his offspring had inferior physiques. They only increased Xu Qing's cultivation by five years.

"The rewards for offspring with inferior physiques vary in cultivation level, ranging from a maximum of six months to as little as less than a month!"

Xu Qing swam around, its blue scales scraping against the rocks with a crisp sound.

Bathed in the soft light of sunrise, the enormous, pale blue creature silently disappeared into the depths of the jungle.

The notification sound didn't stop.

Xu Qing's cultivation level continued to increase.

Over the next few days, his strength will continue to increase until all the female snakes have laid their eggs.

At that time, Xu Qing will reach the peak of his strength.

Its scarlet tongue flicks out, gathering information from the air.

Xu Qing discovered that his perception had become much stronger, and nothing within a hundred feet could escape his senses.

Fifty feet to the right, a wild boar is sleeping soundly in a tree hollow.

Eighty feet to the left, an unidentified strange bird was resting in a tree.

Not only these larger creatures, but even small insects, their every move was clearly perceived by Xu Qing.

This ability is very powerful and can help Xu Qing investigate the surrounding situation.

With his improved strength, Xu Qing's patrol speed increased significantly.

In half an hour, he reached the limit of the distance he had previously explored.

Before us was a small river about ten feet wide, and on the other side lay the depths of the mountains and forests.

"Your 150th offspring has been born, their bloodline mutated, and they will surely transform into a demon within a hundred years. You have gained the divine power: Earthly Fiend Technique - Soul Seizure!"

"Earthly Fiend Technique - Soul Seizure: Searching for and stealing souls; the one who seizes souls is the master of Yin and Yang!"

A glint of light flashed in his vertical pupils.

The Earthly Fiend Technique is a divine power of immortals. It is said that the Earthly Fiend Technique is the foundation and origin of many immortal arts, and ordinary beings have no chance to cultivate it!

Xu Qing was comprehending the new supernatural power he had acquired. He was deeply aware of the profound mystery of this power and was completely absorbed in it.

After a while.

"Truly worthy of being called the methods of immortals and gods, every aspect of it points directly to the essence of all things!"

"Go find a jinx and see what happens!"

Xu Qing's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he flicked out his snake tongue, preparing to turn around and return the way he came.

however.

Just now.

In his perception, a rather large heat source was stealthily approaching this side of the river from the forest on the other side!

What is that?

It seems to be a demon as well!

Xu Qing remained silent, quietly retreating and hiding in the shadows.

As his figure completely disappeared, a monster covered in earth-colored scales and with sharp claws and teeth appeared on the shore.

It began to cross the river, and very quickly, reaching the other side in just a few breaths.

He shook off the river water, and a hint of human greed flashed in his small eyes.

It didn't find Xu Qing and walked straight into the forest.

"A pangolin that has become a spirit?"

Xu Qing recognized the monster; if it could grow to a size of ten feet, it must be a demon!

A flicker of excitement and anticipation instantly appeared in his golden vertical pupils.

He had just acquired a powerful supernatural ability and was worried about not being able to try it out when a demon delivered itself to his door.

He didn't rush to make a move; the pangolin was acting suspiciously, and might be plotting something.

Xu Qing quietly followed them, wanting to see what they were up to.

at the same time.

The pangolin ahead seemed to have found its target and suddenly quickened its pace.

It was incredibly fast, turning into a blur as it rushed onto a patch of grass, its sharp claws digging rapidly at the ground.

"hiss..."

A sharp screech rang out.

A large black and white snake was pierced by sharp claws.

The large snake had a triangular head and was a venomous snake, struggling desperately.

However, its venomous fangs could not penetrate the pangolin's scales, leaving only two white marks.

A hint of disdain flashed in the pangolin's eyes as it grabbed the large snake and stuffed it into its mouth, looking quite pleased with itself.

Is this guy here specifically to eat snakes?

It seems we've encountered our natural enemy.

The giant snake was about ten feet long, and there were faint fluctuations of magical power within its body, clearly indicating that it possessed some level of cultivation.

Xu Qing decided to stop hiding it.

In his memory, there were several snake wives in the vicinity who had not yet laid eggs.

The creatures inside their bellies are the source of his cultivation, magic, and supernatural powers; they are his lifeblood, and he cannot allow them to be consumed by these pangolins.

He stopped hiding and peeked half his head out of the shadows.

The pangolin, which had just swallowed a large snake, suddenly turned around.

It was overjoyed when it saw Xu Qing.

Among demons, their strength is often distinguished by the malevolent aura they possess.

The green snake not far away had no trace of malevolence on it, and judging from its head and body size, it was quite large. It might be some kind of exotic species!

It must taste really good!

The pangolin's eyes burned with even greater greed, and saliva dripped from the corners of its mouth.

I don't know.

Xu Qing's cultivation and magical power are the purest power rewarded by the system. He doesn't need to fight and devour other demons at all, so he naturally doesn't have much malevolent aura.

But that doesn't mean he's weak!

"Hiss..."

The pangolin roared and charged at Xu Qing.

But when it came close to Xu Qing and saw the enormous body, more than three zhang tall, that was lurking in the shadows, a deep sense of horror immediately appeared in its two small eyes.

The next instant.

A flash of green light struck the pangolin hard.

"Bang!"

The pangolin was instantly knocked away, its body flying backward like a cannonball until it crashed into several large trees before slowly coming to a stop.

"Um?"

Xu Qing's pupils contracted.

The pangolin curled up into a ball, its thick scales protecting it from a fatal blow.

Its body stretched out again, and its expression changed from fear to surprise.

This pure snake seems to possess immense strength but lacks magical abilities!?

It suddenly felt like it had survived a disaster, and greed resurfaced in its eyes.

If I could eat this green snake, my cultivation level would definitely increase dramatically!

The pangolin was overjoyed; blood appeared on its claws, and a murderous aura emanated from it.

But it hadn't even launched its attack yet.

A sense of instinctive fear arose in the pangolin's heart.

In the distance, the giant snake opened its blood-red maw, and a spark of fire shone between its sharp teeth!

The next instant.

A dazzling flash of lightning suddenly burst forth in the jungle!

"boom!"

Strands of lightning descended.

The pangolin's tough scales, which had saved it from death many times, were instantly charred black!

A heart-wrenching scream echoed through the jungle.

It rolled frantically on the ground, its body crushing its charred scales into powder, its skin tearing open and revealing its bright red flesh.

The electric current drilled into the wound, making a crackling sound, and soon a meaty aroma wafted out.

"Spare me! Spare me!"

The pangolin screamed and begged for mercy.

Xu Qing moved his body and came to its front, saying calmly, "I ask, you answer."

The pangolin nodded repeatedly, not daring to hesitate for a moment.
