The path to immortality through demonic cultivation begins with devouring snakes to become immortals

Li Xiaobai was completely paralyzed; this system was indeed a defective product.

Before you got hit, you didn't have the feature unlocked, but after you got hit, you can add information, right?!

However, after being tripled in physique, Li Xiaobai frantically swung his short tail.

Even carrying a twig laden with fruit, it was still as fast as a duck! The little female monkey truly witnessed its speed...

What?! What the hell is this?! Snake-body aerodynamics?!

Fortunately, the little female monkey hasn't unlocked the other two toolbars yet. If she were to learn the skill of throwing stones, that would be a nightmare!

But this running only made them further away from their nest.

Li Xiaobai didn't dare run back into the den. The little female monkey had long arms, and he was afraid that his older brothers and sisters would be taken out of the den and eaten. After all, no matter how powerful he was in his previous life, he was just a young snake now.

Then Li Xiaobai himself got into trouble. Exhausted, he collapsed like a tattered rope under a pile of withered leaves, his big eyes filled with utter despair.

The whole snake was in pain! It was more tiring than working a whole day in an electronics factory.

"Phew... even a little monkey could kill me."

Li Xiaobai felt bitter. The dangers of this world were far greater than he had imagined. This... was only the beginning.

Even after being battered and bruised, the old corporate slave's tenacious vitality allowed him to accept reality at an extremely fast pace.

The small flame in his heart that had never been extinguished and was still flickering made him feel that he might not be inferior to any empress or demon lord. They all came from the same nest, so who was more noble than whom? Besides, he had a system.

Li Xiaobai's snake-like face darkened at the thought of the system.

[Ding~ Random task completed.]

The notification sounded in his mind, and Li Xiaobai instantly perked up!

Cultivation techniques! Cultivation techniques! He has a foundation in cultivation; with cultivation techniques, he can cultivate!

[Random cultivation technique reward being drawn. Congratulations, host, you have obtained...]

The notification sound suddenly stopped there! Then, a crackling sound of electricity came from Li Xiaobai's mind.

Even the system's notification sounds started to become intermittent.

[Random skill extraction in progress...]

This feeling is like being engrossed in a movie when your internet connection suddenly drops!

And what about my own cultivation technique? I can't let it be stolen.

【Ding~】

Just as Li Xiaobai's heart was pounding nervously, the notification sound became clear again.

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the cultivation technique: Upper Clarity Dragon Technique!]

"Buzz!!"

Before Li Xiaobai could even be shocked, he felt as if his head had been hit by a heavy hammer.

Her big, watery eyes were wide open, and her pink tongue drooped limply next to her small teeth at the corner of her mouth.

In that instant! The soft, withered leaves that had enveloped Li Xiaobai seemed to have turned into a muddy swamp, rendering him completely immobile. The unknown fear instantly filled Li Xiaobai's heart!

It was this feeling that Li Xiaobai later realized. This feeling... was clearly the pressure emanating from an all-powerful expert, even unintentionally.

Even during that long journey, Li Xiaobai never again encountered even the slightest bit of oppressive aura.

But when Li Xiaobai vaguely saw an old man dressed in hemp clothing, holding a ruyi scepter, appear in front of him, everything changed.

The old man had white hair and a youthful face, with long eyebrows that drooped down his face. Although his eyes and brows were gentle, he possessed an indescribable air of majesty!

He emanated a gentle light that miraculously dispelled the fear that filled Li Xiaobai's heart, and even gave him a strange sense of intimacy.

The old man looked at the little snake, remaining silent, but his clear, bright eyes were full of smiles. He raised his hand and gently tapped Li Xiaobai's round head with his index finger...

Just like that! The feeling of being stuck in the mud completely disappeared, and Li Xiaobai's entire snake was bathed in this warmth!

It was as if, even though he had drifted to another world, even though he had become a snake, from this moment on, he had found his roots.

One's own roots...

Still there!

Li Xiaobai stared blankly up at the old man until his figure disappeared.

He murmured:

"Shangqing...Lingbao Tianzun!"

The world before him became clear again, but Li Xiaobai, still immersed in the shock of what had just happened, felt as if he were different.

But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was different.

Only the technique, deeply imprinted in his mind, remained clear in every word, and was called: Shangqing Dianlong Jue!

Duang!!

Li Xiaobai was so excited that his body stiffened into a straight wooden stick.

"Really! It's true!"

"Hahahaha!!"

"What the hell is this 'Upper Realm Empress' and 'Demon Lord'?! Everyone has a background, right?! I, Li Xiaobai, am a descendant of the Shangqing lineage! No, I'm a descendant of the Shangqing lineage!"

With this technique, as long as I master it, I will definitely be able to live a prosperous life in this world, not to mention that I also have a system!

From then on, a snake appeared on the Divine Continent, always proclaiming itself a descendant of Shangqing, although... none of the living beings knew who Shangqing really was...

They were probably too cocky, like a loser who wins the lottery and is already planning how to spend the money even though they haven't received it yet.

Li Xiaobai was completely unaware that he was not in a cave, but in the dangerous wilderness, with a bunch of ripe fruit skewered on branches beside him.

The fruit is secondary; the most important thing is that Li Xiaobai himself is a chubby, plump little flower snake!

A fishy smell wafted over, and Li Xiaobai instinctively dodged. He saw a snake much larger than himself, its vertical snake eyes staring intently at him.

The cannibalistic nature of snakes is a fundamental principle that holds true even in the world of cultivation, especially since this snake appears to have been starving for a long time.

The feeling of being targeted like prey made Li Xiaobai furious. He had just obtained the qualification to cultivate and the cultivation technique, but he hadn't had time to put it into practice yet!

This thing is so much bigger than me…

Li Xiaobai panicked, his snake-like muscles tensing, and he swallowed a non-existent mouthful of saliva: "System...system?"

Wow! You can definitely beat them...

"Shut up!!"
