"These snake-human hybrids seem to lack a strong life force, like a flickering candle fla swaying in the cold wind, as if they might extinguish at any mont," Zhou Siyi expressed her doubts.
Liu Jiang returned to his previous gloomy deanor and explained, "After all, these are two different spiritual beings combining, so their physical forms are sowhat unstable."
"That's exactly why I want them to mate and give birth to the next generation of human- snakes. Naturally, this should solve the problem of their physical instability."
"However, these hybrids have no desire to mate. Even when given beast essence, there's no reaction."
Zhou Siyi stared at the snake-humans in the pool, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and a sense of exploration.
Then, her body began to tremble slightly, filled with unusual excitent and enthusiasm.
At this mont, her deanor was vastly different from her usual innocent and naive self.
"Have you tried any aphrodisiac like 'Hehuan Powder'?" Zhou Siyi asked.
"I have tried, but it had no effect," Liu Jiang replied.
"Have you tried mating them with the Green Jade Snakes?" Zhou Siyi inquired.
"I've tried that too, but there's a species barrier, making it impossible to naturally conceive a new generation of human-snakes," Liu Jiang said.
Listening to their conversation, Song Wen felt a strange thought rise in his mind.
The two before him seed completely unconcerned about morality.
Liu Jiang appeared to be a mad scientist, obsessively exploring the mysteries of life by creating an unnatural creature, showing a kind of delusional insanity.
Perhaps due to their upbringing and environnt, Zhou Siyi displayed an extre indifference to human ethics.
In their eyes, perhaps, re mortals without cultivation were not of the sa species as them.
It was like how humans viewed ants-why would a human care about the lives of ants?
Reflecting on the various experiences since he began cultivating, Song Wen realized that it wasn't just these two; many in the cultivation world likely shared this mindset.
Moreover, the higher one's cultivation, the more indifferent one beca to the lives of ordinary people.
It had nothing to do with righteousness or evil; it was rely about cultivation levels.
"This is a bit tricky! To develop a new kind of aphrodisiac specifically for human-snakes is no easy task," Zhou Siyi muttered to herself.
After pondering for so ti and failing to co up with a solution, she turned to Song Wen.
"Junior Brother Wu, do you have any insights on this?"
Song Wen shook his head. "I'm neither skilled in alchemy nor familiar with the habits of human-snakes, so I really can't think of any counterasures. However, since the human- snakes are not naturally conceived beings, perhaps they simply can't reproduce. Their unstable physical forms are evidence of that."
Liu Jiang interjected, "That's not entirely accurate. I once cultivated a particularly unique human-snake that not only had a stable body but also possessed intelligence comparable to humans."
"That creature was so intelligent that it even understood the concept of hiding its strength, concealing its abilities, and could restrain its aura. It secretly advanced to a second-level beast without my noticing."
"One day, taking advantage of my carelessness, it escaped from this underwater snake enclosure and disappeared into the vast lake."
Song Wen and Zhou Siyi were both shocked upon hearing this.
"A second-level human-snake!"
Liu Jiang nodded, a proud expression crossing his face.
Zhou Siyi turned to Liu Jiang, admiration flashing in her eyes.
"Elder Liu, may I see your notes on cultivating human-snakes?"
Liu Jiang frowned. "That may not be convenient. Showing you the existence of human-snakes is already an exception. Normally, only those with the status of Law Enforcent Elders at the peak of the sect are qualified to know about human-snakes. The notes are even more of a sect secret and cannot be easily shared."
Zhou Siyi didn't press the matter further but instead sent a ssage through spiritual power.
Upon hearing it, Liu Jiang's eyes brightened.
He said to Song Wen, "Elder Wu, you should go rest in the guest room. I have so matters to discuss with Elder Zhou."
Song Wen, sensing the situation, nodded slightly.
There were only three of them here, yet Zhou Siyi had used spiritual energy to communicate, clearly wary of Song Wen.
As Song Wen walked toward the cave entrance, he paused suddenly after taking a few steps and turned to ask.
"Elder Liu, I have a question in my mind. If it's convenient, could you help clarify it for ?"
"Given the weak abilities of the human-snakes, why bother investing so much ti and effort
in cultivating them?"
Liu Jiang replied, "This is a secret of the sect, and I do not know the reasons behind it."
"Thank you."
Song Wen bowed and bid farewell, turning to leave the underwater snake enclosure.
Song Wen initially thought Zhou Siyi and Liu Jiang would co out soon, but unexpectedly,
The waited for a full half month in the guest room arranged by He Su.
Fifteen days later, Zhou Siyi finally erged from the underwater snake enclosure.
She looked exhausted, clearly having used up a lot of ntal energy, yet her eyes sparkled
with vitality.
It seed that during this half month, she and Liu Jiang had been diligently studying the notes and had gained so insights.
"Sister Zhou, are you alright?" Song Wen asked.
"Elder Wu, I'm fine, just a bit ntally drained. A couple of days of rest will have back to
normal," Zhou Siyi replied.
"How did the mission go? When can we leave?" Song Wen was anxious to return to the Beastmaster Sect to work on the Explosive Blood Pill.
Zhou Siyi said, "The problem hasn't been resolved yet. I'm afraid we can't leave just yet."
With that, Zhou Siyi entered an empty guest room to recuperate.
Song Wen frowned slightly; he didn't want to stay in the Spirit Breeding Workshop any longer.
Since he was already there, he might as well make himself comfortable.
Since they couldn't leave for the ti being, Song Wen settled into the guest room to
ditate and cultivate.
Ti passed quickly, and two days went by.
One day at noon, a dium-sized flying ship, over thirty ters long, descended over the
Spirit Breeding Workshop.
More than ten disciples from the Beastmaster Sect, at the Qi Refinent stage, disembarked from the ship, each carrying a fainted young woman.
After delivering these won to a separate pavilion, they returned to the ship and brought
down another young woman.
These back-and-forth continued multiple tis, ultimately delivering over two hundred
won to the pavilion.
These young won shared a common characteristic; each had a vigorous life force emanating from their lower abdons, indicating they were all pregnant.
At that mont, Zhou Siyi walked out of the guest room and knocked on Song Wen's door.
"Elder Wu, are you there?"
After a mont, Song Wen opened the door. "Sister Zhou, what's the matter?"
"I and Elder Liu will be in seclusion in the underwater secret chamber for a while. During this
period, we cannot be disturbed by outsiders. I ask you, Elder Wu, to watch over the safety of the Spirit Breeding Workshop and rember not to let anyone intrude into the underwater snake enclosure."
Song Wen nodded helplessly in agreent.
For the next half a month, Zhou Siyi and Liu Jiang remained in the underwater secret chamber,
rarely showing themselves.
Every day, quite a number of won were sent into the underwater chamber, ranging from a
few to twenty or thirty.
After the won were consud, the disciples from the Beastmaster Sect went out to capture
more.
That night.
While Song Wen was ditating and cultivating, he suddenly opened his eyes.
His spiritual sense detected a dark aura rapidly approaching the underwater snake enclosure
from the lake bottom.
This dark aura was extrely obscure; if not for its rapid movent causing ripples in the
water, it would have been nearly imperceptible.
In an instant, Song Wen vanished from the room and appeared on the surface of the water.
He quickly ford a sword formula with his hands, and a low-grade flying sword shot into
the water, racing toward the mysterious aura.
