When he was about to catch fish by a large river, he accidentally … entered the territory of a giant anaconda.
This giant anaconda was as thick as a water bucket and six feet long. Its dark blue scales shone with a cold light. A pair of red eyes stared straight at Chu Mo. Its entire body was emitting a strong murderous aura.
Half of the giant anaconda's body was submerged in the water. No matter how the water flowed, it did not move. Coldly, it stared at Chu Mo as if it could attack him at any time.
Chu Mo felt a chill run down his spine because he recognized this anaconda!
This was a real elemental beast!
A fourth-order elemental beast!
Chu Mo did not recognize many elemental beasts. This anaconda was one of them.
It was called the Crimson-Eyed Frost Python!
In the eyes of the Demon King, this fourth-order elemental beast was probably no different from a small earthworm. He could easily pinch it to death.
But to Chu Mo, this was a terrifying creature that was extremely lethal.
The reason why Chu Mo recognized this thing was because he had seen a Crimson-Eyed Frost Python once when he was young.
Speaking of which, that was six years ago. At that time, Chu Mo was only seven years old.
At that time, Fan Wudi was guarding the border between Da Xia and Da Qi. Because there was no war, he brought Chu Mo over.
In the eyes of the old man, a boy had to be in the army to grow into a real man.
Not far from that garrison, there was a large river. It was the natural border between Da Xia and Da Qi.
All this while, nothing scary had appeared in the river. It was very peaceful.
But one day, a Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python suddenly appeared out of nowhere. That Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python was even larger than this one.
At that time, Chu Mo saw the Crimson-Eyed Frost Python swallow a soldier who went to fetch water. He was scared out of his wits.
After swallowing a soldier, the Crimson-Eyed Frost Python did not seem satisfied. It charged towards them again.
When the other soldiers saw this, how could they dare to resist? They immediately risked their lives to escort Chu Mo back.
The old man was furious when he heard the news. He led the army's elites to kill them.
Chu Mo didn't see what happened after that. He only heard about it from others.
That Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python had killed a total of 17 Huang level 1 captains, and injured more than 30 Huang level 2 captains.
A Huang level Level 3 Deputy General who had broken through the Yuanguan realm had one of his arms torn off and was heavily injured.
Although the old man was not injured, he was completely exhausted after killing the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python.
This was the result of a large number of experts from the army besieging them!
The old man was the first to rush forward!
And at that time, the old man was already a fourth layer powerhouse!
Chu Mo had heard that the scales of the Scarlet Eyed Frost Python were extremely hard. When a sharp saber slashed at it, it could only leave a faint mark. Martial artists in the first or second layer could not even break through its defense.
And when it opened its mouth, it could spit out large amounts of cold air. As long as one came into contact with it, they would be frozen.
And then it would use its strong tail to lash out viciously. His entire body would shatter like ice.
Incomparably terrifying!
In the end, after the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python was killed, it was dragged back. Its entire body was a bloody mess, and it did not look majestic at all.
But the destruction it caused was unforgettable for all those who had participated in that battle.
After the incident, Fan Wudi had said that even if he broke through to the fifth level and entered the realm of the Thousand Men Slayer, he would hide as far away as he could from this thing!
As for the heavily injured Huang Grade level three deputy general, he was now in the Fan Residence of Yan Huang City and had become the butler of the Fan Residence.
This was because after losing an arm, his strength had plummeted, and he was no longer suitable to stay in the army.
The guilt-ridden old man had arranged for him to be a housekeeper at home. At least he had an explanation.
From the moment Chu Mo left the mountain, he knew that his journey home would not be peaceful. But he did not expect that the first Meta Beast he would meet would be the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python!
Looking at the huge python, whose eyes were emitting a demonic glow, Chu Mo forced a smile. "Hey, Brother Python, how are you... The weather is good today. Are you out for a stroll too?"
Tier 4 Meta Beasts already had a certain level of intelligence. Although they might not be very high, they could understand human speech.
Hiss, hiss!
The Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python spat out its scarlet tongue. The murderous intent in that pair of scarlet eyes instantly intensified.
Chu Mo cursed inwardly and pounced to the side.
Hu!
A ball of cold air was spat out from the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python's mouth. It landed right where Chu Mo had been standing.
After a series of hissing sounds, the originally lush grass there was already covered in a layer of white. It had been frozen in an instant!
At this moment, a gust of wind blew past. The frozen grass let out a slight cracking sound and broke into pieces. It fell to the ground, still in a frozen state!
If Chu Mo's reaction had been slightly slower, the one who would have been frozen into a popsicle … would have been him!
Chu Mo felt his scalp go numb. Looking at the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python, he said, "Are you for real? We met by chance … Isn't it good to get along peacefully? "
As Chu Mo spoke, he slowly retreated.
The Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python had already regarded him as its prey. Its movements were extremely fast and violent as it charged towards him.
Chu Mo let out a loud cry and turned to run!
Even his grandfather was not willing to face this thing. How could he, a little fellow who had just broken through to the Yuanguan Realm, fight it?
Courage and hot-bloodedness also depended on the timing!
At least for now, it was not the time to fight with his life on the line.
Being at the third level of the Yuanguan Realm, his running speed was naturally very fast. Although the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python was a Meta Beast in the water, it was not slow on land at all!
In the blink of an eye, the man and the python had already charged a distance of several hundred feet.
...
The girl in the blue dress was not far away at this moment. Naturally, she saw this scene. She looked on with interest as she pondered in her heart whether she should help him.
"If I don't help him, there is a high chance that … he will die in the hands of this little snake."
"I can feel that he is related to my objective this time …"
"Aiya, this is so annoying. God knows what my objective is!"
"But I can't let him die."
"Let's wait and see. Even if I help him now, he might not be grateful to me. Hmph, what a detestable brat. It's good to let him suffer a little."
The girl in the blue dress muttered. Her eyes were locked onto the Scarlet-Eyed Glacial Python, ready to act at any time.
However, she did not know that there was another person in the void further away!
Dressed in black, the Demon King's face was even paler than before. He was watching this scene coldly.
Although he had chased Chu Mo out, this road was destined to not be a peaceful one. How could the Demon King be at ease to let him go alone?
Standing in the void, the Demon King could clearly feel the weakening speed of his body … It was constantly intensifying.
Originally, he was already prepared to die.
Being thrown into this world was equivalent to cutting off any hope he had!
He was looking for a successor because he did not want this line of inheritance to end in the hands of the Demon King.
However, he had never expected his disciple to avenge him or help him in anything. Even if he could, he did not need it.
In this life, other than that beautiful figure in the depths of his heart, it could be said that he had nothing to worry about. He had no restraints.
He had never accepted a disciple. If it was not for the fact that he was about to die, he would not even have such thoughts.
So … his thinking was very simple.
"Find a talented child that I like, teach him what he needs to be taught, and then let him scram!"
"What does it have to do with me whether he dies or not?"
"Anyway, the inheritance did not end in the hands of the Demon King. At least I will not be ashamed to face my ancestors after death."
But thinking about it was one thing, doing it … was another thing altogether.
As long as one was not cold-hearted, how could one be truly heartless?
After throwing Chu Mo off the mountain, and when Chu Mo ran back and kowtowed to the empty space, the Demon King already understood that it was actually very difficult to let go.
So he went to catch a few more elemental beasts to extend his life, and secretly followed Chu Mo.
Death, to him, was already inevitable, and he could not reverse it. It was just a matter of time.
Previously, his plan was to pass on all his cultivation techniques, fulfill his wish, and then find a quiet place to wait for death.
But now that he had something to worry about, he could no longer be so carefree.
He wanted to see Chu Mo return to Yan Huang, wanted to see Chu Mo grow to a certain extent before he could be completely at ease.
This was the truest voice in the depths of his heart!
Even if he did not want to face it, he could not avoid it.
"Sigh …"
The Demon King let out a rare sigh.
That pair of cold eyes looked at his own disciple, who was being chased around by the little bug in his eyes. He muttered, "Looks like … this thing still has to be used after all."
"Die, you are right. If you have something to worry about, you will never be truly carefree."
As he spoke, a small white jade bottle appeared in the palm of the Demon King. He opened the bottle stopper, and an extremely rich medicinal fragrance wafted over.
"Seven Cycles Immortal Pill …"
"Back then, in order to get this thing, you did not hesitate to sneak into the Pill Sect and steal it to give to me."
"Because of this matter, your entire clan was enraged. For the sake of appeasing the Pill Sect's rage, those damnable elders didn't care about being of the same clan in the slightest, and they personally shattered your body and destroyed your cultivation …"
"They also imprisoned your primordial spirit on the Spirit Refining Platform, and let it be roasted by the divine fire day and night."
"Hehe, they are really ruthless … They really could do it!"
"The people from the Pill Sect … could not stand it and said forget it. This girl is guilty of stealing the elixir, but there is a reason for it. As long as the appropriate compensation is paid, this matter would be forgotten."
"But that group of bastards … for a little bit of resources, for their selfish desires, they directly suppressed you!"
"My poor Die Er …"
"They all deserve to die!"
"I deserve to die even more!"
The Demon King's angular face revealed a ferocious expression, and his eyes were filled with self-blame and pain.
"And I … can do nothing!"
"Can't do anything!"
"The one who should die is me!"
"The one who should be roasted by the divine fire … should be me!"
"I originally thought that the Seven Evils Poison could be cured. After I was knocked down to the mortal world, I wanted to cure this poison and save you."
"But I still underestimated this poison … I still overestimated myself!"
"I am a useless person!"
"I can't cure this poison, so I can only wait for death."
"I had already resigned myself to my fate, but who would have thought that I would meet such a talented young man …"
"Die Er, he is really an outstanding child, you will definitely like him when you see him."
"Forgive my selfishness, I want to see him grow up …"
"The Seven Transformations Immortal Pill, one cycle to extend life for one year … Die Er, I am sorry, wait for me for another seven years!"
"After seven years, when this child grows up, I will turn into a dead soul and look for you. Even if my soul is destroyed, I will let you be free!"
As the Demon King spoke, a drop of tear flowed down from the corner of his eye.
Then, with trembling hands, the Demon King took out the elixir from the jade bottle and swallowed it.
