"Snake egg!!!"
Zhang Chen was so startled by this statent that his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but cry out. What about the exotic fruit promised? The fruit that was said to grant the power of lightning and fire upon consumption? How did it turn into a snake egg?
At this mont, Zhang Chen, having heard the words of the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, suddenly understood why this fruit had to be consud within the Spiritual World, as it would rot once it reached the Material Realm. Because in the Spiritual World, the mysterious power is abundant, which can maintain the vitality of the embryo, but once it returns to the Material Realm, the reduction of mysterious power in the air leads to the loss of a survival environnt for the embryo, which would perish imdiately.
At this point, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon beside him offered his explanation: "Once a person consus the snake egg, it will parasitize within their bloodline, rging with it, making it a nurturing ground for itself. Although people can borrow the power of the Ba Snake, in the end, during the transformation of their bloodline, they will beco a Ba Snake and be devoured and possessed by the consciousness inside the Ba Snake embryo."
"Actually, it’s not just humans who are the Ba Snake’s targets. Humans are just an alternative, a desperate choice. The Ba Snake looks to confuse those naturally born creatures or those with strong bloodlines. Humans’ bloodline is insignificant to the Ba Snake. However, due to the scarcity of life in the Spiritual World, and the fact that this Ba Snake has been dead for countless years, with its embryo’s vitality continuously declining, the appearance of humans has beco the Ba Snake’s only choice." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon explained to Zhang Chen.
"But you have the devouring skill, so the snake egg is the best supplent for you. If you can devour the Ba Snake embryo and steal its essence, you might undergo a complete transformation, even potentially awaken so latent abilities." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon ntioned this slightly enticingly beside him.
Zhang Chen felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this. He knew that his devouring skill could devour everything to transform his own root foot. Currently, he was just an ordinary mortal with diocre cultivation aptitude. If he could transform into so type of Dao Body, or acquire so bloodline, or innate root foot, it would be a significant gain.
"But still, forget it. This Ba Snake was a ’fruit’ level existence when it was alive, even though its essence, qi, and spirit have dissipated over countless years, and its power is less than one-tenth of what it was, it’s absolutely not sothing you can covet. Besides, you see the flesh and blood on the ground continually disappearing; I suspect this old Ba Snake is attempting to use the flesh and blood of all creatures to resurrect itself." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon remarked, observing the disappearance of flesh and blood on the ground.
"Resurrected after death?" Zhang Chen was astonished upon hearing this.
"You underestimate the caliber of a ’fruit’ level existence. Fruits are classified into varying degrees of strength, and those potent fruits can be resurrected from others’ mories as long as soone rembers them. Moreover, the world has countless bizarre and formidable thods, so if this Ba Snake has a ans to resurrect, it would be unsurprising." The Great Freedom Celestial Demon explained.
Zhang Chen turned his head to look at the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, feeling thoughtful. The Great Freedom Celestial Demon’s resurrection was inexplicable, claiming to be just a fragnt of soone else’s mory before becoming alive again. What about the Ba Snake before him?
However, according to the Great Freedom Celestial Demon, if the Ba Snake before him intends to resurrect, Zhang Chen beca spirited.
His Soul Hooking and Soul Stealing skill was specifically suited to restrain this. Under the influence of the Law of Cause and Effect, once soone is dead, even if the Celestial King himself appeared, they must fall prey to his Soul Hooking and Soul Stealing.
Zhang Chen’s eyes fell on the Ba Snake’s corpse, and at the next mont, he activated the Soul Hooking and Soul Stealing skill:
[Target detected: Ba Snake Remaining Will]
[Status: Markable]
Seeing the Golden Finger’s response, Zhang Chen beca excited, while also feeling a bit eerie. Fortunately, he was reminded by the Great Freedom Celestial Demon to use his skill in advance, or else he would have indeed been plotted against by this old piece of work.
"Mark!" Zhang Chen thought, directly executing the skill.
The next mont, a mystical mark flew out, and Zhang Chen felt a profound sense of connection with the Ba Snake before him.
As Zhang Chen’s Soul Hooking and Soul Stealing mark fell into the Ba Snake’s body, the Ba Snake’s remaining will seed to have a sense of awareness. In its body, a black qi chanism circulated, thumb-thick and twenty centiters long, with no facial features at the front, only two green flas resembling eyes that glanced at Zhang Chen before retreating into the body again.
Beside him, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon saw the Ba Snake’s remaining will actively appear and suddenly thought of Zhang Chen’s peculiar thod. He inquired, testing Zhang Chen’s reaction, "Did you put your mark into its soul?"
"Of course." Zhang Chen replied, "You figured this out?"
"I observed everything present and deduced that only your thod could prompt a response from the Ba Snake’s remaining will." Having said this, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon hesitated slightly as he looked at Zhang Chen. After contemplating for several breaths, he finally said, "Do you know the true effect of your mark?"
"What do you an?" Zhang Chen sensed there was more to the Great Freedom Celestial Demon’s words, so he asked for clarification.
The Great Freedom Celestial Demon stated, "Although your mark can control the souls and true spirits of the deceased, it can also stabilize those incomplete true spirit origins at the cusp of dispersing, causing their true spirit to halt its dissipation and enter an immortal state, thus holding out hope for revival."
Concerned that Zhang Chen might not grasp the implication of his explanation, the Great Freedom Celestial Demon added, "For example, take the Ba Snake remnants before us. It’s rely a shred of remaining will, not even a remnant soul—just a leftover notion of the Ba Snake post-mortem, which can only act harmfully on instinct. Even if it devours everyone, it would just prolong its pitiful state, not having enough essence, qi, and spirit to resurrect. But with your mark, that notion of Ba Snake now has a basis to survive. As long as your mark remains, the Ba Snake’s remaining will will not perish. It can continuously cultivate and strengthen itself, summoning back the original essence that dispersed through ti and space, eventually gathering a complete soul for resurrection."
