Snake Immortal: Devour the Immortal Emperor at the beginning
Chapter 14 The annual breeding season
The mountain temple outside Chenjia Town was built at an unknown time. It has a history of a hundred years. The appearance of the statue has been weathered and the full picture cannot be seen clearly.
It is said that strange things often happen here, and no one dares to approach, which leads to gradual desolation.
This year, there are not even beggars, only a wild dog, going in and out, looking for food.
Suddenly.
The huge statue in the center shook slightly, shaking off all the dust and snow.
"Woof!"
The big black dog trembled with fear, as if seeing a ghost, and crawled out of the mountain temple.
A sigh came faintly from the statue.
"After two hundred years, this seat finally woke up. It's time to find a physical body. Unfortunately, the last two physical bodies were destroyed by that little beast!"
"That little beast is also half of my disciple. When he comes next time, I will make him find a perfect physical body!"
…………
Unknowingly, three months passed.
Winter is gone and spring is here, all things revive, and the ice and snow melt.
The villagers of Snake Village started sowing for the new year, but compared with previous years, there are fewer farmers this year.
In the deep mountains and old forests, everything bursts with new vitality. Whether it is plants or animals, they are all growing wildly. Hibernating snakes have awakened one after another, crawling out of the caves, and starting to forage for the new year.
In the underground cave.
The temperature gradually rises. On the ceiling, water drops seep down from the rock layer, fall on the ground along the stalactites, making a dripping sound, forming small puddles.
Xu Hei, who has been sleeping for a long time, finally opened his eyes.
After a winter of hibernation, Xu Hei's body is a little stiff. He breathes in and out, and the spiritual energy flows through his body along the meridians. After a long time, it slowly recovers.
Xu Hei looks inside his body.
At this moment, the spiritual cloud in the Demon God Cauldron expands again, covering 80% of the area from a small point that has just been broken through.
Most of the 80% came from swallowing the bear monster.
This surprised Xu Hei a little. The flesh and blood of the bear monster not only allowed him to break through once, but also directly reached the peak of the third level of the spiritual stage.
It seems that the fourth level is not far away.
The black and gold scales on the tip of the tail have reached six.
"Sure enough, the greater the risk, the greater the benefit. It is difficult to make progress by peaceful cultivation alone. Only by devouring and plundering!" Xu Hei said in his heart.
Xu Hei's spiritual sense spread out and covered.
Now, his spiritual sense can be expanded to a range of 30 meters, which is a lot better than at the beginning.
"According to memory, only humans who reach the middle stage of Qi Refining can use their spiritual sense initially, but it will not exceed 10 meters. What's wrong with me?"
Xu Hei was a little confused.
Just like Chen Fan, he could also use his spiritual sense at the beginning. Maybe their talents are different from ordinary people.
During the three months of hibernation, human knowledge and memory often emerge, not only cultivation knowledge, but also some advanced ideas.
Some of them inspired Xu Hei deeply.
He also often reviews his own actions, which are mostly immature.
For example, eating human food is obviously a stupid behavior. If someone wants to plot against him, they can do it.
A few days later.
The temperature rose again, and Xu Hei started to move.
He crawled around in the cave and stretched his muscles. Although it was dark, he had already seen the 30-meter radius with his spiritual sense.
The cave was very large, deep and narrow, and it was unknown where it led.
There was a pond next to it, which was where he passed by when he came in.
However, there was nothing in the pond, no living creatures, not even insects, and there was only a lonely big black stone at the bottom of the pond.
Xu Hei jumped into the pond and swam towards the shore. He didn't dare to stay for long, and immediately swam to the other side and climbed to the shore along the steep rocks.
This pond was quite strange. Xu Hei didn't plan to explore it, and he ignored the stone. When his cultivation was stronger, he would let others try it first.
The warm sun was shining, and it was the early spring season.
The ice and snow melted and flowed down from the mountains, gathering into streams and waterfalls in the mountain streams.
Xu Hei came to a pond and caught some frogs, as well as a few river clams and crabs.
There were many creatures here. Xu Hei found hundreds of them with a sweep of his spiritual sense. He immediately took action and swallowed them one by one.
He also found some snakes that had just ended hibernation, which he also swallowed.
Only then did Xu Hei feel a little full.
"I've eaten too much here. Let's eat in another place."
Xu Hei resisted the urge to continue hunting, left this pond and went to the next one.
There was a lot of food in spring. If it was in the past, he would not hesitate to eat it all here, but now, he understood.
During hibernation, he gained a new knowledge point, called ecological balance.
If a certain creature in a place loses a lot, it will gradually become extinct until it becomes extinct.
This is undoubtedly a nightmare for Xu Hei.
By then, he will be forced to go down the mountain and go to the human village to find food and drink, which greatly increases the danger.
In addition, he would deliberately let go of some pregnant females or those with babies to allow them to reproduce smoothly.
"Even the hunters in the Snake Village would choose to release the cubs and small fish they caught. My appetite is huge, but it is still much smaller than that of the insatiable humans."
"As long as I control it a little bit and occupy two hills, I will definitely be self-sufficient."
Xu Hei thought to himself.
…………
Days passed one by one.
Xu Hei had been wandering around the two hills, eliminating his competitors one by one.
As long as no other beasts break in, he is the only king here.
Through spiritual observation, he has a rough idea of what species there are in these two mountains.
"Twenty-five roe deer, twenty wild boars, thirty musk deer, and hundreds of rabbits."
"There are also monkeys, spotted deer, wild goats, mountain cats, and hundreds of them."
Xu Hei only counted the larger ones, and he could be full with just one. He really couldn't count the other small rodents, amphibians, birds, and fish.
As long as these species reproduce normally and he doesn't eat them indiscriminately, he can definitely be self-sufficient.
As for other hills, because there are scent marks left by monsters, Xu Hei didn't dare to trespass, and he also left his own marks on the edge.
He took the time to go back to the Snake Village and took a look at the Wang family's child. Compared with last year, Wang Xiaoniu has grown a little taller, less naughty, more mature and stable, as if he has grown up in one year.
But there was no figure of Wang Daniu in the melon field, only a lonely grave.
Xu Hei sighed and turned away.
Xu Hei had passed by the mountain temple outside Chenjia Town once. He wanted to burn incense and worship the gods, and he also caught a pheasant as a tribute.
When he got closer, he suddenly couldn't bear to part with the chicken, so he ate the chicken and turned away.
…………
Another month passed.
On this day, Xu Hei left his territory and went deep into the mountains.
His direction was very clear, as if he had precise navigation, pointing directly to a certain place.
Unknowingly, he came to a valley.
This is a basin terrain, surrounded by mountains, the air is damp and cold, there are many puddles on the ground, and snake holes are scattered around.
With a casual sweep of the divine consciousness, no less than ten snakes were found.
This valley is called Wanshe Valley.
Xu Hei came here by the smell of his own kind. He comes here every year at this season, and it has become a habit.
This is the season for snakes to breed!
As an adult male black snake, Xu Hei didn't know what species he was, but he left a lot of seeds here.
Maybe his offspring would be among them if he scanned them with his spiritual sense.
Of course, he didn't have much impression of these things.
He didn't come here to reproduce this year, but he remembered something important.
