Humans were the spirits of all living beings. They were born with three souls. Even the most ordinary people were born with intelligence that other creatures did not have. They could be said to be favored by God.
Other animals only had Heavenly Souls and Earthly Souls. Although they had some intelligence, they could only be regarded as stupid and ignorant compared to humans.
Fortunately, all living beings had the desire to advance. Most animals with only two souls had a long lifespan that was difficult for humans to seek. After a long period of cultivation, these creatures also had the possibility of cultivating a natal soul under certain coincidences.
As long as they cultivated a natal soul and completed the three souls, there was not much difference between these creatures and humans in other aspects, except for the difference in body shape.
Moreover, it was rumored that some creatures with profound cultivation could even get rid of the shackles of their physical bodies after breaking through some barriers of heaven and earth. They could transform into humans and be no different from humans.
Of course, this was something that only an extremely small number of living beings could achieve. Moreover, during this process, they had spent countless years and experienced endless suffering. When they took human form, they already possessed great power, and this was something that was very difficult for humans to possess.
The snake spirit was a thousand-year-old snake spirit when it was alive. Although it was still a long way from transforming into a human, after cultivating a natal soul and completing the three souls, all of its behaviors were no different from humans.
Moreover, creatures who embarked on the path of cultivation yearned for the life of humans. In ancient times, marrying wives and concubines was naturally not something too unimaginable.
The snake spirit was very excited along the way. I could understand. After its death, it had been living in this magical compass for many years. Occasionally, it could recall its extraordinary years in the forest. Finally, it was lured out of the compass and met the Pupil Demon King. During this period of time, its life could only be described as pitiful.
Now, it could finally see its old friend. It was not about being a wife or concubine, but it was an old friend who had seen its glory in the past.
Humans were eager to find their place in the memories of others, and other creatures were no exception.
The tiger that had fallen to the ground was definitely eager to see the little squirrel that had been submissive to it in the jungle. The snake spirit that was now trapped in the shallows was naturally eager to see the little concubine that had been clingy to it in the past. This was the same logic.
The spirit snake led us to a rocky beach at the exit of the canyon. It flicked its thick tongue back and forth. It flicked twice to the left and twice to the right. Eventually, it confirmed a direction. Its giant body floated in the air. It opened its mouth and shouted, "Huihui, Huihui, it's Brother Long. Where are you?
Come out and see me! "
The spirit snake screamed many times in one breath, but nothing happened. I felt bored watching the show. "Did you find the wrong place? Do you want to go somewhere else to look for it?" I asked.
The spirit snake shook its head at me, looking angry. This time, it cursed loudly.
"Huihui, you little b * tch. Hurry up and come out for Brother Long. If you don't come out, when I find you, I'll teach you a lesson tonight!"
His sudden change in style had a miraculous effect. On the rocky beach in front of him, a black gas suddenly spurted out, and a small snake about the thickness of a thumb popped its head out from a crack in the rocks. It looked at the Snake Spirit in midair, and then with a "whoosh", it turned into a white light that the naked eye couldn't see clearly, and almost instantly rushed to the front of the Snake Spirit. Its two ruby-like snake eyes stared fixedly at the Snake Spirit, and after a long while, it let out a soft voice with a sobbing tone.
"Brother Long?
You heartless thing. Is it really you?
I thought someone was pretending to be you … You bastard, it's been so many years. Where have you been? "
Then, the little snake with a white body and red eyes slithered to the Snake Spirit's giant head. Its small body coiled around the Snake Spirit's head. However, the Snake Spirit's black head was just an illusion. The little snake's body directly pierced through its head.
"Brother Long, why are you … Why are you … Are you already dead?"
The little white snake turned pale with fright. It stared at the Snake Spirit for a while. Then, its small body arched, and a large amount of black gas emitted from its back. It looked really scary.
The Snake Spirit smiled cheekily. Its tongue was bigger than the little snake's body. It licked the little white snake's body and said in a mushy tone, "Little Huihui, let's not talk about this. Why did you come here?
Did anyone bully you while Brother Long wasn't here? "
The little white snake ignored him and suddenly turned to look at me. It asked angrily, "Brother Long, did that human kill you?
Looking at your current appearance … Did he capture you to be his weapon spirit? "
I couldn't help but feel a chill run down my spine as the little white snake's red eyes stared at me. It felt as if the surrounding temperature had dropped by a few degrees.
This little white snake was much stronger than Zhao Yongkun. After being stared at by her, I didn't even have the slightest thought to resist. I only felt incomparably frightened.
Fortunately, the Snake Spirit hurried to stop her. After explaining for a long time, the little white snake shifted her gaze away from me. Then, she coquettishly told the Snake Spirit about what had happened to her all these years.
According to her, after Brother Long had disappeared, she had searched everywhere but to no avail. Then, a human Daoist priest had found her and chased after her. She had fled all the way here and had been hiding in this canyon for all these years.
Then, the little white snake seemed to recall something. She hurriedly said, "The souls of the dead will come soon. The Snake Spirit should hide with her."
When Tong Tong and I had collected the souls, the Snake Spirit had been in the compass. It didn't know what was going on. It asked the little white snake, "What souls of the dead are you talking about?"
The Snake Spirit stuck out its tongue disdainfully when it learned that it was just a bunch of human souls. "Aren't they just ghosts? They're very nutritious. What's there to be afraid of? I can eat a hundred of them."
The little snake's face didn't look relaxed at all. Instead, it said with fear, "They are ghosts, but it's not just a hundred. There are at least a hundred thousand of them …"
The Snake Spirit was so scared that it almost fell from the sky. It grinned and said, "What? A hundred thousand?"
The little white snake nodded. The fear on its face didn't disappear. Then, it said, "The reason why I've been hiding here all these years is because of these ghosts. Every day, I would secretly catch some to eat. This has been going on for more than a hundred years. But no matter how much I eat, the ghosts still fill the entire canyon. I can't see the end of them."
The Snake Spirit's huge head revealed a human-like fear. It looked around and shook its head. "How could there be so many ghosts? I don't believe it."
The little white snake was a little anxious. She shook her tail and black gas gushed out of her body. On her originally smooth head, there were two blood-red sarcomas. Then, she said, "Brother Long, look. That year, I had just cultivated my natal soul. Now, look at me …"
Before she could finish her sentence, the Snake Spirit looked as if it had seen a ghost. It stared at her head in horror and said, "You're going to transform into a flood dragon!
Or two horns?
It's only been a hundred years. How could it be?! "
The little white snake nodded and excitedly said, "It's because I've eaten ghosts for more than a hundred years. Now, do you believe me?
Those ghosts are weak, but there are too many of them. We should hurry and hide. "
This time, the Snake Spirit didn't say anything else. However, it pointed at me and said, "I'm your friend. You should take me and hide with you."
At first, I wanted to tell them that there were no more ghosts. However, after hearing the little white snake say that it wanted to take us to hide, I was a little curious. Why would it take a living person like me to hide in this rocky area?
The little white snake asked us to follow her. After a few steps, the little white snake's body suddenly surged with black gas, directly covering me and the Snake Spirit. Then, my vision turned black. When I could see again, I found myself in a huge, simple, and crude cave.
I looked around with interest. Just now, when the black air wrapped around my body, I felt a fluctuation similar to that of a Feng Shui formation. The little white snake unexpectedly had the ability to arrange formations. Hidden in the middle of this rocky beach was a big cave.
After entering the cave, the little white snake took the Snake Spirit to another cave, leaving me here alone.
The Snake Spirit couldn't leave the compass too far, but I didn't mind it. I sat there and slowly considered if I should meet up with the fatty and the others.
I stayed here for more than half an hour. Then, the Snake Spirit and the little white snake reappeared.
The little white snake stayed far away from me and didn't come over. The Snake Spirit swaggered in front of me.
I felt strange. Recently, the Snake Spirit had been as obedient as a grandchild in front of me. Why did it suddenly return to its previous arrogant manner?
Before I could figure it out, the spirit snake ran to me and said proudly, "Kiddo, do you see anything different about your Uncle Snake Immortal?"
I focused my eyes and saw that the remaining Yin energy in the Snake Spirit's body had disappeared. It had become a pure Snake Spirit. I guessed the White Snake Spirit had used some tricks.
Before I could say anything, the Snake Spirit laughed and said, "All right, hand over the compass to me and release that little girl. Let this Uncle Snake Immortal beat her up. Then, I'll let you go."
"Beat Tong Tong?
Are you sure? "I looked at the Snake Spirit and didn't understand.
