Invincible Snake Emperor

Chapter 94: Chapter 93: Snake Spirit

Now that a peerless Snake Species had been bred, many related pharmaceutical studies could also begin.

”From now on, collect ten grams of the Vampire Snake’s venom daily for medicinal use. If its venom is used to create a serum or, perhaps, a painkiller, it will be a hundred times more effective than anything currently on the market.”

”Also, draw a vial of Snake Blood for lab analysis.”

”Additionally, prepare one thousand venomous snakes for it to eat every day.”

A staff member quickly jotted down Chen Mo’s words, but when he heard the last instruction, he hesitated. ”Dr. Snake, do they still all need to be rare Snake Species?”

One thousand rare venomous snakes a day... that would be an astronomical expense. And where would they even find that many rare venomous snakes?

My god, with an appetite like that, every venomous snake in the world might end up as food for the Vampire Snake.

Dongfang Ye frowned slightly upon hearing this but said nothing. Chen Mo, however, explained, ”The Vampire Snake’s bloodline has now broken through, making it a peerless Snake Species. It no longer needs rare venomous snakes. Ordinary venomous snakes will do, and even non-venomous ones are fine.”

At these words, the staff member secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If there were no special requirements for the snakes, the task would be much simpler.

”Raise it this way, and in ten days, this Vampire Snake will become a twenty-meter-long giant python.”

Chen Mo stated this calmly, but the faces of everyone around him changed drastically. They couldn’t even begin to imagine how immense and imposing a twenty-meter python would be.

According to the Guinness World Records, the largest python in the world to date was only eighteen meters long, and that was already terrifying enough.

Of course, in prehistoric times, a twenty-meter python wouldn’t have been anything special.

But you have to remember, this is a giant python evolved from a Mutated Bloodsucker Snake. It possesses a lethal venom and an incomparably massive body. Combining the two isn’t as simple as one plus one.

The experiment came to a perfect conclusion. Chen Mo had someone take careful care of the Silver White Snake, instructing them that as long as the Silver Needle in its head was not removed, it would remain a sickly snake and pose no threat.

Meanwhile, the ten-meter-long Vampire Snake was moved to another location.

Dr. Snake and Dongfang Ye left the laboratory. It was unknown what the two discussed in the end.

An hour later, Dr. Snake, Chen Mo, was resting with his eyes closed on the sofa in his private office. His brow twitched from time to time, and his heart was beating much faster than normal.

He was excited, still caught up in the thrill of the moment.

A young man knocked on the door and entered. Seeing Chen Mo on the sofa, he said happily, ”Congratulations, Master, on creating an unparalleled, peerless Snake Species! Master, you will be the number one figure in the modern scientific community!”

In response to his apprentice’s compliments, Chen Mo said flatly, ”If you hadn’t been fooling around, two peerless Snake Species would have been created today.”

The experiment on the Silver White Snake could have followed immediately, but its body was covered in wounds, making it unsuitable for an injection of the Giant Snake Gene. Thus, they had no choice but to delay it by a day.

”Master, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have let hatred blind me and delayed your important work.”

Jiang Xingze dropped to his knees before Chen Mo, an expression of utter regret on his face, his eyes welling up with tears.

Chen Mo’s expression softened slightly. He glanced at him. ”Fortunately, you didn’t make an irreversible mistake. I’ll let it go this time.”

”Rest assured, Master, I will definitely make up for it.” Jiang Xingze stood up, a look of delight on his face. Then, his eyes gleaming, he asked, ”Master, what was that treasure you fed the Vampire Snake earlier? It worked so well, and I’ve never seen anything like it.”

’The incredibly ferocious Vampire Snake immediately submitted after eating that black pill. It’s practically a Divine Medicine!’

Chen Mo had nothing to hide from his apprentice. ”It’s called a Snake Spirit. It’s a pill developed using a special Secret Technique. No matter the venomous snake, if it swallows this, it will recognize you as its master.”

Dr. Snake was an extraordinary figure; venomous snakes were like toys in his hands. If not for an extremely difficult-to-control Evil Snake like the Mutated Bloodsucker Snake, he would never have resorted to using a Snake Soul Pill.

”Master, does that mean whoever feeds it a Snake Spirit is the one it will recognize as its master?” Jiang Xingze’s eyes glinted sharply, and a greedy look appeared on his face.

Resting with his eyes closed, Chen Mo didn’t see his apprentice’s expression and continued nonchalantly, ”That’s right. Whoever feeds it the Snake Spirit, the snake will recognize as its master. It’s just that crafting these Snake Soul Pills is exceedingly complex and tedious. In the world today, I’m afraid there are very few Snake Catchers left who know this Secret Technique.”

It could be said that these Snake Soul Pills were exceptionally precious; even Chen Mo himself didn’t have many.

They were too troublesome to make and required many precious and rare medicinal ingredients.

”Master, could you give me a Snake Spirit?”

Jiang Xingze blurted out impatiently. Suddenly, Chen Mo, who had been resting with his eyes closed, snapped them open. He narrowed his eyes, his gaze sharp and piercing, and stared at his apprentice with an intimidating authority that needed no anger to be felt.

”Master, what’s wrong? Did I say something wrong?”

Jiang Xingze was startled, and his whole body trembled as if he’d been jolted awake from a dream.

’The master’s gaze was terrifying, as if it could see right through him.’

Chen Mo immediately looked at him coldly and said, ”You want to take a Snake Spirit and feed it to the Silver White Snake, to make it recognize you as its master, don’t you?”

”Master, I’m not trying to steal the snake from you! It’s just... that Silver White Snake humiliated me so horribly on She Mountain that day. I can’t let it go!”

’The best revenge wasn’t to kill the snake, but to make it acknowledge him as its master and command it from then on.’

Chen Mo was suddenly very disappointed in his apprentice. He closed his eyes again and spat out two words: ”Get out.”

”Master, please just grant me this one wish! You already have the Mutated Bloodsucker Snake anyway, so just give the Silver White Snake to me!”

”Get...”

”Master!”

Jiang Xingze cried out, his knees hitting the floor with a thud as he knelt again. ”I’m begging you!”

Chen Mo was silent for a moment. In the end, for some reason, his heart softened. He looked at the kneeling Jiang Xingze and said, ”I can give you a Snake Spirit. I don’t care what venomous snake you find outside to use it on, but you are not to use it on the Silver White Snake.”

Jiang Xingze looked stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth. ”Fine. I promise you.”

”I want you to swear it.”

...

「Bai Town, the Tu Residence.」

The lovely-faced Tu Xiaoyue stood in the backyard, stroking the head of her dog, Xiaobai. Her clear eyes, however, were dim and lifeless as she murmured to herself, ”Little Brother, it’s been a whole day and night. Where on earth did you go?”

The figure of the Silver White Snake was no longer in the backyard, filling Xiaoyue with worry. Vaguely, a terrible premonition bloomed in her heart.

”It’s over, it’s over! The House Snake is gone! This family is going to fall... it’s ruined!”

Wen Qiu stumbled into the backyard, her face as pale as a sheet of paper.

”Mom, don’t overthink it! The House Snake wouldn’t leave. He would never leave our family.”

It was as if Wen Qiu couldn’t hear her daughter’s words, repeating over and over, ”If the House Snake leaves, the family falls. If the House Snake stays, the family thrives.”

”It will fall... it will fall... we’re completely ruined!”

Seeing her mother in such a state, Tu Xiaoyue’s eyes filled with tears. Then, two silent streams flowed down her cheeks.

”Little Brother, where on earth are you? Please come back...”
