“Nine-headed snake? The black shadow in the water just now was an enlarged version of the nine-headed snake?” Huang Yueli’s eyes widened in astonishment,” Why didn’t I notice that it has nine heads?”
The nine-headed snake was a type of fierce beast that was very famous in the G.o.d Realm. Supposedly, an adult nine-headed snake, each head could reach strength equivalent to Dao Profound Realm.
The nine heads added together could erupt with the power of nine Dao Profound Realm powerhouses.
In the early years, there were often experts who raised this kind of ferocious beast as a helper. However, the Nine-headed Giant Snake was too fierce and bloodthirsty. Sometimes, when it was mad, it would even swallow its own master. In addition, as the Profound Qi density of heaven and earth decreased, the resources needed to raise the Nine-headed Snake increased. As time pa.s.sed, almost no one in the 12 continents of the G.o.d Clan raised the Nine-headed Snake anymore.
Legend had it that there were quite a number of nine-headed snakes in the
Wildlands, and there were even huge nine-headed giant snakes. But Huang Yueli had never ventured deep into the Wildlands so this was her first time seeing the legendary nine-headed snake.
Li Moying smiled as he said,” If I didn’t guess wrongly, Rui Jiang should frequently throw down the Ancient G.o.d Clan’s pract.i.tioners into this deep pool to feed this nine-headed giant snake. “Therefore, it must have treated me as a new food at the beginning. It didn’t expect me to have such great lethality, so it only popped out one head and wanted to devour me. In the end…”
The result was obvious. He didn’t get to eat the food, but he lost his head.
Huang Yueli had heard before that the nine heads of a nine-headed snake were actually nine lives. As long as one head was chopped off, one life would be lost.
Of course, losing a life meant that he could still be resurrected.
However, this resurrection process would take at least hundreds of years.
Therefore, no matter how many lives this nine-headed snake had left, at the very least, it had stopped for now.
Otherwise, the two of them would not be afraid of one head, but when nine heads appeared together, even they would find it difficult to resist.
Underwater was the territory of the nine-headed snake and she and Li Moying weren’t good at water battles so when the time came, the trouble would be huge.
When Huang Yueli heard Li Moying’s words, she recalled the black shadow she saw back then and felt a lingering fear in her heart.
“I heard that an adult Hydra’s body is usually five to six meters long. However, the one I saw just now was already eight to nine meters out of the water. The total length is at least sixty meters! The density of the devil qi in this deep pool is really high. It can actually nurture a nine-headed snake into such an astonis.h.i.+ng ferocious beast!”
Li Moying also sighed,” Luckily when I fell into the water, I felt that there must be something strange in this deep pool so I had been secretly on guard. If not, if I were to be suddenly attacked, I might suffer a loss…”
If the pond water could breed huge ferocious beasts after being eroded by the devil qi, one could imagine what the ores in the surrounding mountain walls were like.
Huang Yueli immediately agreed with Li Moying’s judgement earlier.
“In that case…lt really was like this! I’ve never heard of it before. devil qi can actually be extracted from ores! However, now that he thought about it, since the Profound Qi of Heaven and Earth could condense into crystal jade in ores and form spiritual springs in water. That devil qi can naturally seep into the mountains and rivers.. In that case, my knowledge is too shallow…”
