Invincible Snake Emperor

The once-imprisoned and despairing people were reborn, trembling as they walked toward the dawn light at the cave’s entrance. They supported one another, each person helping the next.

They had, after all, escaped the jaws of death together.

As they filed past the Black Snake, the python no longer had its previous ferocious aura. It didn’t dare block their path, merely prostrating on the ground, not daring to move an inch.

Once everyone had left the cave, another wave of Power of Faith surged wildly into Tu Xiao’an’s system.

Faith varied in intensity; the stronger the belief, the more Points contributed.

The thirty or so people who walked out of that cave each provided Power of Faith numbering in the hundreds.

In total, it amounted to over five thousand Points.

Accumulated Faith Points: 512,000.

Ever since the Snake King Temple appeared, Tu Xiao’an’s Faith Points had skyrocketed several times over, soaring from the original 150,000 to more than 500,000.

Just by circling above Bai Town for a few seconds, he had reaped 320,000 Power of Faith in an instant.

Now, only a small, gold-and-silver snake and a fifteen-meter Black Snake remained in the dim and gloomy cave.

The Black Snake, submitted to Tu Xiao’an’s Snake King aura, dared not act out of line, looking for all the world like it was at his mercy.

Tu Xiao’an watched with cold indifference. With a thought, the Mutated Two-headed Snake materialized out of thin air before the Black Snake.

’It’s all yours.’

’This fifteen-meter Black Snake can’t go to waste. Subduing it is useless to me—what would I do with such a large python? But it’s perfect for cultivating the Two-headed Snake.’

The Mutated Two-headed Snake had just recently eaten a full-grown Eagle. Now, with a fifteen-meter Giant Snake before it, the little guy showed no fear at all. Instead, it grew exceptionally excited.

To the snake, this was undoubtedly a magnificent feast.

Its two heads swayed, Spiritual and Fierce, as its three-meter-long body slithered straight into the Black Snake’s gaping maw.

Tu Xiao’an watched quietly, not stopping the Two-headed Snake’s seemingly suicidal act.

He allowed its entire body to crawl inside, making it look as though it had been swallowed by the Black Snake.

In contrast, the Black Snake’s bronze, bell-like eyes were filled with terror. Its massive body, prostrated on the ground, trembled and shivered uncontrollably.

Immediately after, the Black Snake’s aura began to weaken, and its Life Force started to drain away rapidly. The Two-headed Snake had crawled inside its body and was now absorbing its Energy.

”ROAR...!”

The prostrate Black Snake let out a miserable, agonized roar. The sound even made Tu Xiao’an’s skin crawl. He could clearly sense the Black Snake growing weaker and weaker. Its fifteen-meter body was actually shrinking, becoming desiccated.

’It’s a good thing this Mutated Two-headed Snake ended up in my hands,’ Tu Xiao’an thought. ’If it were left to its own devices, it would be even more cruel and terrifying than a Vampire Snake.’

A few minutes later, the Two-headed Snake emerged from the tip of the Black Snake’s tail. Its body, originally three meters long, had grown to five.

As for the Black Snake, its aura was completely gone; it had died a violent death. Its once-massive body now looked like a desiccated husk.

”Ding... Mutated Two-headed Snake has been promoted to Level 15.”

The newly emerged Two-headed Snake excitedly swayed its two Snake Heads in front of Tu Xiao’an, its body radiating a terrifying, chilling, and dreadful aura.

By devouring a full-grown Eagle and a fifteen-meter Giant Snake, it had shockingly reached Level 15. Its power had surged, and most terrifying of all, its growth had no upper limit. Its Level was increasing far too quickly.

The Two-headed Snake possessed the bloodline of an Ancient Snake Species, had been gestated in a human womb, and was Thunderstruck upon birth, turning it into a super-mutant. And now, it had Tu Xiao’an to cultivate its growth.

It was practically born with a silver spoon in its mouth.

They say being born well is a skill in itself. This Two-headed Snake had a limitless future ahead of it; it was destined to become an incomparably terrifying existence in the world.

After recalling the Two-headed Snake into his system, Tu Xiao’an flew out of the cave and headed toward the depths of the Snake Gully.

A long trench in the earthen ground snaked its way deep into the mountain forest. Seen from the sky, it looked like a Giant Snake with an infinitely long body slithering along.

After flying for several kilometers, he found the previously empty gully was now filled with all kinds of venomous snakes. They slithered along the gully toward the deeper regions, scrambling over one another in a vast and mighty procession.

Imperceptibly, Tu Xiao’an caught a strange, exotic fragrance in the air, seeming to drift from a place very, very far away.

This place could now be considered the true Snake Gully. Traces of venomous snakes were everywhere.

There were many species of venomous snakes that even Tu Xiao’an couldn’t name, species he had never seen before in his life.

After flying along the gully for a full hour, Tu Xiao’an was astonished. ’Where do the depths of this Snake Gully lead?’ he wondered. The path was so long it seemed endless.

Tu Xiao’an had no idea how many venomous snakes he had seen along the way; there had to be at least tens of thousands.

And the most terrifying part was, as far as the eye could see, the gully seemed to be filled only with rare venomous snakes, densely packed together. It was as if common species of venomous snakes weren’t even qualified to be in the gully.

At first, when he saw rare species of venomous snakes, Tu Xiao’an would still collect some in his system to take back to Meilin Street for sale.

But eventually, he grew numb to it. There were just too many. Snake Gully truly deserved its reputation as the main camp of the Snake Race. He hadn’t even reached its central area, yet rare venomous snakes were already everywhere.

If any Snake Catchers were here, they would surely be shouting in excitement that they’d struck it rich.

Such fine snakes, all of them.

Of course, that was assuming they could even make it here alive.

Gradually, as he continued flying along the gully, Tu Xiao’an began to see some large snakes, and even giant pythons.

Snakes have their species, and pythons have theirs, but here, all the rules were thrown out the window.

Many species of venomous snakes had grown to the size of pythons.

What shocked Tu Xiao’an the most was a large black python slithering ahead, nearly ten meters long. At first, Tu Xiao’an thought he had encountered another Black Snake.

But as he flew closer, he was stunned. It was a Black Mamba.

Black Mambas were rare and deadly venomous snakes that typically reached about three meters in adulthood, yet this Black Mamba was a full ten meters long.

It seemed the Snake Race here had broken through the shackles of their bloodlines, achieving limitless growth.

This defied the normal laws of nature.

’Could it be that these venomous snakes have also eaten those small, bright red fruits?’

An exotic fragrance now permeated the air, and all the venomous snakes were scrambling toward the depths of the Snake Gully. An unknowing observer might think they were all heading to a festival.

’It’s a good thing these giant snakes are all staying within the Snake Gully,’ he thought. ’If they slithered out, they’d all become man-eating monsters.’

Watching one giant snake after another, Tu Xiao’an felt a bit awkward. Even if he reverted to his original form, a fifteen-meter-long python, he would be completely unremarkable here. It wouldn’t be anything special, and no member of the Snake Race would be shocked by him.

If Dr. Snake, Chen Mo, were here, it would completely shatter his worldview. He had exhausted his efforts to turn venomous snakes into giant pythons, giving them massive bodies and deadly Venom.

Here, that was nothing special. You could grab any random snake, and it would meet his requirements.

Many members of the Snake Race had transformed into giant pythons.
