Once a soul has been tempered in the fires of life, it is let rest until it cools and the vessel dies. At this point, changing the soul is nigh impossible. But that doesn't mean there isn't an afterlife. 

This is a book designed to break away from the stereotypical heaven or hell, devil or angel, and good or evil tropes. Not everything is black or white, but everything is a different intensity of grey.

The journey through the Serpentes Plains was extremely smooth as the Giant  Serpentes avoided Leylin whom had carried the Devilish Alabaster bloodline on  him, 

As for those snakes without intelligence that tried to harass Leylin or treat  him as a prey, they were swiftly slain by Belinda, which gave Leylin the cold  shudders. 

Perhaps, amongst the snakes, only those with intelligence could be considered  as the same family. Those without any ability to think or those that only acted  on instincts were not considered as part of them. 

Furthermore, between the different races under the Snake Dowager, cannibalism  and wars were often executed. 

These races were mostly hovering between ranks 1 and 2, even Sophia could deal  with them easily without Belinda’s help. 

Over time, Leylin’s party gradually entered the deeper regions of the plains. 

Under the purple moonlight, the plains were extremely tranquil. Time to time,  flickering red light from burning coals surfaced, bringing heat to the  surroundings. 

Suddenly, Leylin’s figure appeared above a tent with burning charcoal beside  it, before flickering into concealment again. 

”The distance is just right, it’ll be here!” 

Leylin looked up at the moonlight high up in the sky as he muttered and left  the camping grounds. 

He left behind a puppet equipped with basic A.I. Chip capabilities, which  would be enough to deal with most situations. 

Not long later, a marsh appeared in front of Leylin, where puddles seemed to  be strung together on the plains, like starry shining pearls in the sky. 

In this vicinity, Leylin felt large amount of energy waves which were  concealed, time to time hearing the hissing and roars of giant snakes nearby. 

Oftentimes, battles between creatures would surface to vye for the water  source. 

Leylin had passed through this region with Belinda a few days ago. However, to  avoid unnecessary battles, they avoided this area. However, Leylin had etched  this place into his memory back then. 

”Sssiii…..” 

A giant snake with the circumference of a vat emerged from the marshes and  opened its bloody jaws, wanting to swallow Leylin in just one bite. 

”Scram!” Leylin’s brows furrowed. The snake roared and escaped right after it  was flicked away. 

”These useless things that don’t know their place are so troublesome!” 

Not every low ranked snake would be subjugated to Leylin’s bloodline. Back  then, the grey snake that Sophia had encountered had only been subjugated due  to it being extremely weak. 

However, the moment rank 2 and 3 giant snakes without intelligence appeared,  Leylin would only be akin to a tasty prey to them. 

“Because they share the bloodline from the snake dowager, a higher ranked  snake would not strike fear in them?” 

Leylin suddenly grinned, “This is the right specimen that I want!” 

*Boom!* A gigantic white snake phantom the size of tens of thousands of meters  surfaced from behind Leylin’s back, as two scarlet vertical pupils the size of  stars let off a ferocious roar. 

At the same time, the regal aura emanated from the huge snake. 

Right now, those giant snakes without any intelligence had also slithered away  quickly and left the vicinity. 

Leylin was not a Warlock with mixed bloodline, hence just with the tiny trace  of regalness emanated would stop the giant snakes with insatiable greed to  devour him. Instead, these giant snakes with no intelligence were now extremely  frightened. 

”Slick….” Beds of snakes continuously left the marsh, forming a tide of giant  snakes. Mixed bloodlined snakes and even those that Leylin could not identify  were escaping. 

”Huh! As expected, they’re all weak. There aren’t any traces of rank 4 species  here, but it is also logical, since no matter how low their intelligence was  before, they would undergo a transformation after they enter rank 4. 

Leylin’s gaze swept through the horde of snakes, before his eyes brightened,  “It’s you!” 

A giant black snake was writhing and crying as it struggled in the grasp of  Leylin. 

This snake had black scales and its vertical pupils were filled with horror  and plea. As for its strength, there were rank 3 energy waves emanating from it. 

”Black Horrall Snake! The subspecies of Kemoyin! We meet again!” 

A trace of remembrance shuttered past Leylin’s thoughts as he watched the  snake in front of him, keeping its silence. 

Back then, his Kemoyin bloodline was extracted and purified from the Black  Horrall Snake. Thinking of it now, even though the great Magus Serholm left his  inheritance behind, it was not as powerful as it seemed to be, as he did not  have any intentions of passing down the Kemoyin bloodline. 

Perhaps, in Serholm’s eyes, a rank 3 Warlock was strong enough to conquer the  south coast and he did not want his inheritor to be swept up in the perilous  dangers of the central continent. 

However, it was all for naught. Even the great Magus Serholm did not expect  that his inheritor would be this heaven-defying, purifying the Black Horrall  Snake’s bloodline into the Giant Kemoyin Serpent, turning into a powerful  presence. 

”I have already done this much, now I will need your strength!” 

A dark red test tube appeared in Leylin’s palms, where the contents within  continuously frothed, filled with an ominous aura. 

”The quintessence from the clone of the Monarch of Gluttony — Beelzebub!  Leylin muttered. This was the huge risk he took to summon Beelzebub through the  constraining spell formation before he entered the Purgatory World. 

Although it had been purified many times, the quintessence still contained  large amounts of Beelzebub’s branding. Once used, the target will definitely be  affected by the sin of gluttony. The target’s intellect will disintegrate,  turning into Beelzebub’s puppet or the preparatory body of a clone. 

“Purgatory World is too quiet, I have to introduce chaos to this place!” 

Leylin chuckled as he poured half of the contents of the test tube into the  Black Horrall Snake’s jaws. 

“Sssii!….Grrrroarrr.” The Black Horrall Snake struggled continuously within  Leylin’s grasp as dark coloured runes appeared on its body, so much that the  scales seemed to be breaking apart, as if a devil within its body was trying to  break free. 

“Go!” Leylin tossed the Black Horrall Snake back into the horde of snakes. 

Immediately, the Black Horrall Snake attacked the other giant snakes beside  it. Its pupils were filled with a type of overzealous rage, as the aura on its  body exponentially increased. 

*Ka-cha!* A giant boa had it’s head bitten off by the Black Horrall Snake,  before it was devoured completely by it. 

*Sssii!*! A crackline appeared on the head of the Black Horrall Snake and  expanded continuously until it exploded. 

Large amounts of skin were molted. Now, a larger, stronger Black Horrall Snake  appeared, its strength nearing that of a rank 4 Magus. 

The Black Horrall Snake with it increased strength continued to devour the  other snake species. Eventually, another head appeared from its neck,  accompanied by fiendish flames spewed from its mouth. 

“The fiendish transformation is even more apparent now!” Looking at the scales  on the Black Horrall Snake that looked even more malevolent now, Leylin shook  his head. 

“Sssii…” The double headed Black Horrall Snake in this Purgatory World had  advanced into rank 4, yet it did not dare to provoke Leylin. 

After looking at Leylin with fear in its eyes, the black coloured purgatory  snake dashed into the distance, leaving behind a trail of corpses. 

“Not so stupid huh. Although you won’t live happily ever after, claiming  yourself as the king amongst all snakes on the plains for a short while should  be a blazing glory as you were originally only rank 3 huh? 

Leylin muttered, as he tossed the other half of the test-tube into the marsh  behind him. 

*Gulp! Gulp!* Dark red colour contents that were frothed expanded quickly in  the marsh, leaving behind a peculiar smell lingering in the air. 

Under the enticement of this scent, very soon a huge grey rat conquered its  fear of snakes and scurried over, before lapping the water. 

With each mouth, this rat only grew larger in size. Very soon, its eyes turned  red, as if in an enraged mode. 

Very soon, more grey rats scurried over. There were even white rabbits,  accompanied by more snakes. 

After these organisms had finished quenching their thirst, they began to  attack other animals ferociously, at the same time transforming into  unrecognisable creatures. 

Looking at this scene, the corners of Leylin’s lips curled up maliciously. 

“Heyo Beelzebub! Are you satisfied with this Purgatory World that I found?” 

By just thinking about it, Leylin knew that Beelzebub hungered for this world.  It was a huge world with abundant resources. Even with the chaotic World’s  Will, it did not reject these new life forms on the world. 

To Beelzebub, such a world held an incomparably huge enticement. 

Even if Beelzebub knew what Leylin was scheming out in the open, he would  still be attracted by the benefits and take a gamble. It was an irresistible  trend. 

“Of course, the power of gluttony is still weak in the beginning and has to be  protected!” 

Leylin smiled, as a pair of chaotic grey wings appeared, with the power of  chaos, enveloping the marsh and its nearby region with a grey barrier. 

“With this disguise, high ranked organisms would not be able to notice it  until it’s too late!” 

Leylin laughed blandly. 

Although the Snake Dowager was considered a dignitary, she would not be able  to understand the continent like the back of her palms, much less monitoring  the happenings across the Hale Continent. 

Furthermore, with Leylin using the power of chaos intentionally for disguise  and concealment, nothing can be changed when the Snake Dowager has realised it. 

Moreover, this was the marshes. Any organisms which were attracted were just  expendables. Leylin would not feel the pinch in his heart even if all of these  creatures were completed dead. 

“Man-made environments are often the weakest type of ecosystems. After this  has blown out of proportions, I’m sure it will cause the Snake Dowager and the  Holy City enough headaches for a few years…” 



Leylin is transported from an advanced technological era into a medieval world— except there’s magic. Equipped with only his quick wits and an A.I. chip fused to his soul, he sets out to become the most powerful magus the world has ever known. In a land divided into the Light and Dark Magi, the weak can either be cattle or disposable slaves. Only the strong can determine their lives, and only they have the luxury for virtue. Yet strength is only a tool for Leylin, like any other. His goal, in the end, is his own.

You want me to help you? Sure… but what benefit can I get out of it? Nothing? Bye. 

Hmmm… that guy looks like he might cause me problems in the future. Should I let him off for now and let him grow into someone that can threaten me….. Nahhh. *kill*

Qingfeng Li carefully observed the drained planet and sensed an extraordinary presence from it.
The presence was familiar to him; it was the chaotic presence that he had encountered before.
Since he possessed a chaotic ultimate treasure, the Black-and-White Millstone, he was familiar with this chaotic energy presence.
Besides Qingfeng Li, even Treasure-Seeking Mouse had sensed the difference.
The word "treasure" it spat out had hovered above the drained planet, but now it had been turned into sparkles by a mysterious energy and vanished.
Treasure-Seeking Mouse said in a low voice, "Master, I sense the presence of Chaos Spirit herbs from the drained planet; however, great dangers are hiding there too and they are making my soul tremble."
"Even an immortal master can't scatter the word 'treasure' I condensed with the Law of Energy, but it was easily erased here, which means something extraordinary is concealed in the drained planet, probably something at the pinnacle stage of the Immortal Realm. We must be careful."
Qingfeng Li nodded and said, "Got it. Let's go in there."
Qingfeng Li drove the immortal ship toward the drained planet below them.
While they descended, Qingfeng Li felt special energy which was different from any energy he encountered in the Universe's Saint Realm; it was something he had never seen before.
This energy was grey and contained the grey presence of death, eroding everything around it.
The top of Qingfeng Li's immortal ship began to disintegrate into particles before vanishing in the universe, which stunned Qingfeng Li.
He knew that his immortal ship was not an ordinary thing. It was made with Thunderstruck Wood, Immortal Ice Grass, and Black Wood Immortal Ivy, which were all immortal-grade materials. But now it was being eroded by this mysterious energy.
Besides the immortal ship, Qingfeng Li found his own body was being eroded and openings began to appear in his skin.
By his side, Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and Treasure-Seeking Mouse were not faring better; their fur began to fall.
Although only three to five hairs fell, they were terrified of the change.
After all, they were animal ancestors who had cultivated to the immortal beast realm. What was the mysterious and weird energy that even they couldn't resist?
The Treasure-Seeking Mouse said in astonishment, "Master, bad news. This is the Death Race Curse. According to the legends, there was a bountiful planet that had been cursed by the Death Race in the Chaos Era of the Universe."
"The Death Race is a special species who possess and passes death energy. They erode all things that are alive or have life energy and disintegrate them into particles before absorbing them into their own bodies."
Qingfeng Li frowned, finding the situation quite tricky.
He released the immortal energy in his body and formed a defensive light shield around the immortal ship to protect it.
However, the moment his defense light shield was formed, it was eroded easily by the grey particles.
Not wanting to admit defeat, he launched the Heavenly Immortal Chant, Mortal Purgatory Body, and other techniques, but they were all useless.
The grey misty particles contained horrifying energy and the orthodox techniques couldn't block it.
Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and Treasure-Seeking Mouse tried their demon energy and super powers, but the result was the same.
They were terrified to see their fur was still shedding.
At this moment, Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake both said, "Qingfeng Li, we should leave the drained planet. It's too dangerous here and if we continue the descent, all of our fur will be gone."
Qingfeng Li shook his head, not wanting to return without success.
It had taken them great effort to get here and find the presence of the Chaos Spirit herbs and he wouldn't return without getting what he wanted.
Besides, he knew that it was great luck that he found Chaos Spirit herbs and that even the Reincarnation Immortal probably couldn't find them. If such treasures appeared in the Universe's Saint Realm, they would cause a universe war.
Everyone would fight to the death over them and only these grey Death Race particles could block those treasure hunters.
Qingfeng Li looked at Treasure-Seeking Mouse and asked, "You are a favored being of the world and know a lot of secret stories. Tell me how to deal with the Death Race particles."
The Treasure-Seeking Mouse said in a low voice, "Master, according to the legends, only the black hole can deal with these Death Race particles. As the nemesis of the Death Race particles, the black hole can easily devour them and send them to some unknown space."
Qingfeng Li was pleased and a trace of excitement entered his eyes.
With his Devourer bloodline, he could form a black hole to deal with these Death Race particles.
Without hesitation, he activated the Devourer bloodline in his body, forming a black vortex above his head.
The vortex had a diameter thousands of feet in size, engulfing the immortal ship and the people in it.
The grey Death Race particles were easily swallowed by the black vortex and vanished.
Qingfeng Li found the black hole his bloodline formed was extremely powerful and even he couldn't explore the mysterious world it connected to.
He knew it was because he had awakened too little of his bloodline.
After his power increased or his understanding of the Devourer Bloodline deepened, he would know the world the black vortex was connected to.
Shortly, most of the grey Death Race particles around the immortal ship were devoured by the swallowing vortex.
The rest of the particles fled as if they had encountered their nemesis. Knowing they couldn't mess with Qingfeng Li, they vanished quickly.
With the disappearance of the grey Death Race particles, the planet before them looked grey again.
Qingfeng Li was pleased to see the immortal ship and his skin was no longer eroded and Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and Treasure-Seeking Mouse had stopped shedding hairs. Everyone was exhilarated.
They drove the damaged immortal ship downward and shortly reached the surface of the planet.
The soil on the planet was totally different from that of other planets. The surface was made with a huger rock whose surface looked grey as if it had been soaked by great amounts of blood.
They could even hear voices from the depth of the planet.
These sounds came from the Chaos Era of the Universe and a distant time-space.


Qingfeng was known as the Wolf King, a legendary mercenary that had mastered peerless martial arts and the sophisticated art of medicine. He originally wanted to just live a peaceful life, but his arranged wife, who is a CEO, thinks he is a loser and wants a divorce. The cold war between husband and wife began.

A violet streak of light moved fast like a lightning bolt, dodging the corpses and rocks that were sparse around the large cave. It moved toward the south, towards a large entrance surrounded by strange statues of vertical eyes.  

The violet figure left behind it a strange trail of grey swirling lines that immediately congregated themselves to form barriers. Those strange high grey doors lasted only for some moments, before being destroyed by the passage of another figure. 

Right behind the violet bullet, constantly destroying the barrier left behind by violet shadow, there was a dark silhouette constantly trying to catch up with.

The speed of the two colored lights was almost equal. At least for a while. 

When the grey traced left behind by the violet shadow became weaker and formed smaller barriers, the dark pursuer started to gain speed over the violet. 

One hundred meters.
Fifty meters.
Ten meters.
One.

The two light were now running side to side. The black one darted on top of the violet, trying to intertwine itself with the violet light. 

The moment right before the violet shadow could be caught by the black silhouette, the former burst with a great explosion of grey energy. The detonation helped the violet light to escape, propelling it for thousands of meters while pushing behind the black shadow for hundreds. 

However, while the black shadow managed to ride the grey wave of energy, the violet one was overwhelmed by it. The explosion forced the violet light to the ground, crushing it so hard that it formed a large cloud of dust a deep dent on the ground.

 When the dust settled, an out of breath violet serpent emerged a small hole.

The violet light was obviously Devassa. 

She was bleeding and looked exhausted. She had nasty looking grey veins that were protruding all over her body. Her eyes were bloody and the aura around her was incredibly unstable. 

Her sorry figure was way different from the mysterious and prideful cultivator from the journey towards the tomb. 

"Dammit... not even the Karmic Kage stopped him"

Her voice was broken, directed to no one in particular as the only living thing there was her and the countless mushrooms that lit up the place.

Her eyes run towards a certain direction and she saw that the black shadow that was following her, stopped for a second. It was a small black snake, with purple energy covering his translucent scales and shining violet eyes.

A deep sense of danger fell over her when she locked her eyes into the evil eyes of the creature. She could feel the madness and the ferocity contained inside them even with the great distance that separated them.

The snake looked at her for a second and roared with anger, dispersing the last traces of grey energy that kept him from moving. He then immediately again to move towards her direction. 

"Fucking idiot" 

Cursed the snake, transforming herself in a violet light and darting toward the large structures towards the south. 

The shadow that was following her was Darkscale! The serpent had completely lost his mind after absorbing the Ghost insect. 

At first, she didn't understand what it was happening, but seeing how his aggressivity continuously increased more he fought with her, she finally understood what was happening.

Those overly aggressive methods of attack that he was employing were an indication of Soul contamination. It seemed that the black serpent didn't absorb only the energy of that ghost, the fool absorbed even his bloodline power!

Only a complete moron would do something like that. Even the bravest of Devils wouldn't dare to take in the bloodline of someone else inside his body. 

Bloodline Energy and normal Energy were two completely different things! 

If one had an affinity to a certain element, let say Fire, he could easily absorb Fire Elements thanks to a Fire Cultivation Technique. However, if the same cultivator had also an affinity to a certain bloodline he couldn't simply go around and absorb bloodline using the same Fire Elemental Technique!

To absorb Bloodline Energy one first needed to have the same bloodline already inside of him. 

There were cases where someone without bloodline managed to gain one by taking the bloodline power of someone else, but those were very far and few. The majority of cultivator that tried to gain a bloodline by injecting themselves with bloodline power, died excruciating deaths.

Absorbing Bloodline energy was even more dangerous than absorbing elemental energy without having an affinity with it. The latter thing only made it very difficult for a cultivator to manipulate that energy, the former was a death sentence most of the times.

Why? Energy was usually without owners. It was clear of impurities and could be absorbed with little to no effort. There were exceptions, but those could be also compensated by using powerful methods and cultivation techniques.

For example, Ghost Energy was energy that was contaminated. Being literally the soul power of dead people, it was obviously contaminated by the owners. It contained wills, fears and even fragments of memories. 

It was very difficult to use it without sullying one's cultivation base and soul. Absorbing it raw was possible, but it could turn someone completely mad in the long run.

However, a powerful method like the Heavenly Battleground Technique was able to purify that energy and transmit it in its clear form to the cultivation base of the user. Only the power was kept, all other irrelevant information was extracted by the technique and expelled. 

This made the Heavenly Battleground Technique incredibly valuable. However, the purification didn't work on everything. The Heavenly Battleground Technique only worked on Battleground Energy. 

It couldn't purify Bloodline powers!

When Darkscale absorbed the large insect, he should have expelled the bloodline energy instead of letting it fuse with his own. Not doing so he contaminated his own body and soul with the impurities that still were hidden inside the bloodline energy.

Devassa used her secret Negative Karma technique to examine the body of the serpent during their fight and noted that the black snake had been contaminated by the energy of the Ghost Insect.

She understood that trying to reason with him will be pointless, so she decided to lead him toward the place where she found the Insect. Maybe there were other agglomerations of Negative Energy similar to the Ghost Insect in that place.

If she was lucky, the serpent would leave her to go fight with the other Ghosts. 

While she knew little about Bloodline users, she had some experience with Devils that lost their minds after devouring too many cores.

 She knew that even when they lost their minds, Devils would always feel the position of suitable preys and even abandon fights to the death to go and try to devour those suitable preys.

She just hoped that bloodline users were similar. The violet snake moved rapidly, her eyes full of worry.  She needed to be fast. The next time the snake would come near to catch her, she wouldn't have the energy to use another Karmic Kage to stop him.

After moving for hundreds of meters she finally arrived at a distance where her probing technique could be used to scan that strange place she was heading to.

Devassa gathered a small amount of grey energy from her cultivation base, and pushed into her eyes activating her cultivation technique and scanning with her gaze the location she was moving towards.

"Yes"

She immediatly saw three big negative energy traces that moved around. Tears of happiness started to fill her eyes. She was right! There was still a chance to survive.

Then her eyes fell into a fourth Negative Energy trace and her heart skipped a beat.

Black Collar Snakes are the worst.

In the "Hierarchy of the Beast Clans" compiled by the Heavenly Ice Tiger Emperor, they are placed among those who are not even deemed worthy to be cattle. Human cultivators won't even try to catch them as they're deemed worthless. Even amongst mortal animals, they're at the very bottom of the food chain.

However, in a fated night, a little serpent of this species changes after a fortuitous encounter and start dreaming to become a Cultivator.

Chapter 380: Godly Beast Dark Elegant Horse

Standing on the Whole Gale Eagle, Teng Qingshan was surrounded by the dark masses. Numerous birds bypassed Teng Qingshan and the Whole Gale Eagle and rapidly flew away.
"Caw~~Caw~~"
The screeches sounded one after the other and resonated to the heavens. 
"According to the book, these Snake Devouring Birds feed on venomous snakes, and there are numerous venomous snakes in the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland. According to reason, the Snake Devouring Birds shouldn't be migrating." It just seemed slightly strange to Teng Qingshan. The number of Snake Devouring Birds that blotted out the sky and the land was really too large. The dark masses were still before Teng Qingshan, blocking his sight.
"Neigh~~"
A cry that sounded like the neigh of a handsome horse mixed with  the cry of a dragon rumbled from the distant horizon. Immediately, those Snake Devouring Birds exerted even more effort to flap their wings even faster, escaping as quickly as they could. Soon, Teng Qingshan and the Whole Gale Eagle arrived at the end of this enormous group of Snake Devouring Birds.
The Snake Devouring Birds departed and there was nothing left in front of Teng Qingshan.
"Is that?" Teng Qingshan looked into the distance and saw a completely black, tall, and handsome horse galloping and flying in the air.
It galloped as it flew. It was as if the great earth was beneath its galloping hooves.
Its dark colored mane fluttered along with the wind, causing it to appear as if the heavenly horse was wearing a cape. With the same speed as that of the Snake Devouring Birds, it wasn't flying fast. As it continued galloping, it emitted loud cries that resonated to the heavens sounded. It cheerfully followed the Snake Devouring Birds.
"It is actually able to fly without wings...Is this the ruler of the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland, the Godly Beast Dark Elegant Horse?" Teng Qingshan gasped in surprise.
Being able to dash in the air without wings proved that this was definitely a demonic beast that had reached the Transcendent Emptiness Realm! 
The Dark Elegant Horse galloped in the sky, while the Snake Devouring Birds seemed to have encountered an extremely terrifying predator as they escaped with all their might towards the endless horizon.  
Suddenly, the Dark Elegant Horse turned its head and stared at Teng Qingshan with its dark and gloomy eyes.
"This is..." Teng Qingshan felt a strange power emanating from the Dark Elegant Horse's eyes. It was as if a gloomy and cold flood of water inundated him. Immediately, he felt dizzy; his body swayed involuntarily as he stood on the Whole Gale Eagle's back and his face became slightly pale. 
One was a Godly Beast Dark Elegant Horse that was galloping in midair, while the other was the human that stood on the Whole Gale Eagle. The eyes of the two met briefly. Seeing that Teng Qingshan's face suddenly turned pale white, the Dark Elegant Horse emitted a proud neigh, which sounded like the cry of a dragon, and continued pursuing the flock of Snake Devouring Birds.
As Teng Qingshan watched the Dark Elegant Horse gradually disappear into the horizon, his heart was still anxious.  
"As expected of the Dark Elegant Horse! As expected of the mount of the Omnipotent Expert Duanmu Yu!" Teng Qingshan exclaimed in admiration.
Teng Qingshan had a feeling that…
This Dark Elegant Horse could probably kill him with just a look!
"The extremely perilous Cloudy Dreamy Swampland is not even dangerous to me. To the Dark Elegant Horse, this Cloudy Dreamy Swampland is probably its garden, given that it’s the ruler of this Cloudy Dreamy Swampland." Teng Qingshan sighed inwardly as he thought to himself. If he could subdue a Transcendent Emptiness Realm Demonic Beast, he would be able to do anything in the Land of the Nine Prefectures. 
However, with Teng Qingshan's current level of ability, it was just a dream.
"I should just continue searching for the Cloudy Dreamy White Fruit. If I find it, not only will it give my father a chance to stand again, I will also obtain those six stone inscriptions, which will help me reach the Emptiness Realm." Teng Qingshan continued to stand on the Whole Gale Eagle, and carefully scanned the vast Cloudy Dreamy Swampland below.  
On the eighteenth night of his journey into the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland…
"Whew~~" The Whole Gale Eagle darted downward from a high altitude and descended onto a mountain, which was several several zhang tall. To be more specific, this short mountain that was several zhang tall didn’t even count as a mountain; it could only be considered as a hill.
The moon was very bright that night. The almost completely round moon hung in the night sky like a jade plate.
The color of the night shrouded the entire Cloudy Dreamy Swampland. At that moment, there was a range of hills in Teng Qingshan's surroundings, and there were many marshes amidst the hills. Under the cover of moonlight, one could distinctly see...the misty steam rising up from the surface of the marshes. 
The misty steam gave the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland a dreamy and illusory feeling. 
"Little Grey, rest well," Teng Qingshan patted the Whole Gale Eagle's feathers, and immediately placed a bird that was half the height of an adult onto the ground. He had randomly grabbed it while he was riding the Whole Gale Eagle.
That would be Teng Qingshan and the Whole Gale Eagle's dinner!
Teng Qingshan pulled out a tree with a trunk as thick as a human thigh from the side. He easily cut the tree into thin slices with his bare hands, as if playing with dough. Flames emerged from his hands and he easily sparked a flame on the dried slices of tree trunk. Afterward, he then simply made a big bonfire.   
"Chichi~~"
He plucked the big bird's feathers and removed its internal organs. After washing it with the Water Elemental Supreme Force, he placed it on the bonfire and  slowly roasted it. With the use of some of the ingredients he had brought from the Cloudy Dreamy Ancient City, the flavor of the roasted wild bird became extremely delicious. 
"Screech~~" The Whole Gale Eagle sat beside the bonfire and peered at the big bird.
"Little Grey, relax." When the bird had almost finished cooking, Teng Qingshan tore off a small piece and tasted it. He nodded and said, "Yes, it's done." With this, he tore an entire thigh off the fully roasted bird for himself, and placed the rest in front of the Whole Gale Eagle. One whole thigh had at least seven to eight jin of meat on it. 
The human and the demonic beast ate with relish! 
Hiss~~
Hiss~~
Soft noises could be heard in the vicinity, so Teng Qingshan flicked a glance and saw a black and green snake approaching from among the weeds and tall grass. When Teng Qingshan saw this, he shook his head. He was already used to it. Lighting a bonfire at night would easily attract some of the different kinds of poisonous insects and aquatic beasts that inhabited the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland.  
Plus, the fragrance of the roasted bird also attracted the aquatic beasts and poisonous insects. However, Teng Qingshan already had a solution.
"Little Grey," Teng Qingshan shouted. 
"Screech~~" The Whole Gale Eagle emitted an ear-piercing screech, and the aura of an innate bird-type demonic beast pervaded the air. The aura immediately scared the horrifying black and green snakes away, causing them to retreat far away.  
"Hiss~~" A hoarse and unpleasant sound came from afar.
When the Whole Gale Eagle heard that noise, it immediately became enraged and emitted an even higher pitched cry than before. 
"Hiss~~" The unknown beast sounded very angry. The surrounding one hundred li was its territory. Since it was the ruler of the surrounding area, how could it condone the proud roars of other demonic beasts? It was apparent that this unknown monster deemed the Whole Gale Eagle's roars to be a deliberate provocation.
Teng Qingshan grabbed the roasted thigh and took a few bites. He then placed the roasted leg to the side. He instantly removed the oil on his fingers with the Supreme Force and leaped out with the Reincarnation Spear in hand as he shouted, "Little Grey, stay here! I will go check it out!"
The Whole Gale Eagle nodded cheerfully.
The Whole Gale Eagle was an innate demonic beast, but it was only a novice innate demonic beast. According to reason, it didn't dare to act so arrogantly towards other demonic beasts.
However, since it was following Teng Qingshan, it could act this arrogantly! However, it was precisely because of its arrogance that some demonic beasts would feel offended and would roar furiously in return. As a result, Teng Qingshan could find out the location of the demonic beast through the sound....This was Teng Qingshan's method of seeking demonic beasts!   
……
"Bringing Little Grey along was indeed a wise choice. With its help, the search for demonic beasts has become a lot easier." Teng Qingshan was able to find over thirty demonic beasts within eighteen days, and over half of those demonic beasts were found because of the Whole Gale Eagle's proud roars at night. The roars made those demonic beasts roar in turn, and that was how they were discovered by Teng Qingshan in the end. 
With the Reincarnation Spear in hand, Teng Qingshan stepped on the surface of the swamp and walked amongst the mist.
Splash~~Splash~~
Every step produced ripples on the swamp’s surface, and venomous snakes or some strange fish and aquatic beasts, which were twice the length of an adult, occasionally emerged from amidst the swamp. Teng Qingshan glanced over and ignored these venomous snakes and aquatic beasts. He rapidly approached a hill, which was where the roar came from.
"Crack~~" A horrifying grey fish that appeared similar to a crocodile sprung up, and  a sharp pair of small crisscross teeth bit towards Teng Qingshan. 
A wave suddenly undulated from the aqua battle armor that enveloped Teng Qingshan's body.
The grey fish was blasted away. It did a few flips in the air and fell back into the water, creating splashes.
Teng Qingshan suddenly climbed a hill, which was around  one hundred zhang tall.  The rocks that made up the hill were azure and black, the hillside itself was incredibly weedy, and there were also some trees and vines on the hill.
"So many snakes?" Teng Qingshan frowned.
It was normal to see snakes in the water. However, a great number of snakes were present everywhere on the hill, which was a rare scene in the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland. 
"Snake hill? Snake lair?" Teng Qingshan pondered. Simultaneously, he treaded over the hill and strode forward.
There were too many snakes on the hill.
"Tsk!" Teng Qingshan trampled two snakes to death. There were many snakes hissing in his surroundings, and some even leaped and bit towards him. Yet, he paid no attention to them, and continued to rapidly stride forward. All of the snakes that tried to attack him were struck and killed by the fierce Supreme Force or crushed to death underfoot by Teng Qingshan himself.
Within the time it took to breathe ten times, Teng Qingshan had found the location of the demonic beast. 
"It really is a big fellow!"
As Teng Qingshan watched, a section of a snake tail emerged from a cave in the hill. With the thickness of a water tank, the snake tail was covered with black and violet scales, and just the sight of it would cause one's heart to shudder.  
This place was indeed a snake lair. Snakes were everywhere. That big fellow was also a snake-type demonic beast." Teng Qingshan stomped his feet!
Rumble~~~
The entire hill trembled, and a great amount of rocks tumbled down, smashing many snakes to death.
"Hiss~~" A furious hiss came from within the cave, and a snake tail could be seen coiling.
Teng Qingshan raised his head.
A snake head, which was a size larger than the wheels of a car,  popped out from the top of the short hi and glared at Teng Qingshan. Soon after, another huge snake head emerged from the top of the mountain.
"Two demonic beasts?" Teng Qingshan was shocked.
Chichi~~
The two snakes wound downward, and soon Teng Qingshan was shocked to realize that it wasn't two demonic beasts, but instead a Twin-Headed Violet Coral Serpent! He stared at this demonic beast’s ong, thick body and its two horrifying snake heads. He immediately recalled the description of this demonic beast in the book.
The Violet Coral Serpent: with violet colored ring-like marks on its chest, an adult Violet Coral Serpent is ten zhang long. The Violet Coral Serpent at this stage is still an Innate Demonic Beast, but once it goes through a transformation, another head will grow and it will become a Twin-Headed Violet Coral Serpent, with a body length of fifteen zhang. This Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beast can spit out venom that can melt both metal and rocks.
"Tsk, tsk. It's been eighteen days since I ventured into the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland. I have encountered over thirty demonic beasts. Including you, I have only met three Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beasts."
Teng Qingshan was not alarmed, but actually happy.
A Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beast...the Medical Herbs or Spiritual Fruits in its lair must be some top ranked treasures." Through his previous encounters with the two Golden Dan Innate Demonic Beasts in the Cloudy Dreamy Swampland, Teng Qingshan had profited greatly.


With five strikes of his axe, Emperor Yu split the mountains and unified everyone beneath the heavens. He partitioned the land into nine prefectures and erected the nine cauldrons. After Emperor Yu's death, incessant disputes arose within the Land of the Nine Prefectures. 

One thousand years later, a once-in-a-generation genius—the Heavenly Emperor of Qin Mountains—emerged from out of nowhere. With a strike of his palm, he was able to stop the motion of the 100-meter wide Yan River. With his peerless martial prowess, the Heavenly Emperor of Qin Mountains was ultimately able to unite the land beneath the heavens. However, when he died, chaos once again shrouded the Land of the Nine Prefectures. Several thousand years passed by, and still, no one was able to consolidate the nation.
 
Then the Grandmaster of the Xing Yi Martial Art—Teng Qingshan—arrived here unexpectedly from the modern world.

In a wet jungle, a 20-cm-long grey snake stared at a black-spotted frog not far from it.

        The snake was hidden between a cluster of dead leaves. The color of its body made it almost integrated with the surrounding environment. The nail-sized black-spotted frog, although vigilantly shifting its eyes, did not find the existence of the small snake.

        "Target: black-spotted frog, amphibious, can provide 1 bioenergy point."

        A mechanical voice rang in Fang Yun's mind, telling him the basic information of the creature in front of him.

        "1 bio-energy point? Not bad."

        Fang Yun flicked his tongue slightly, staring at the black frog, looking for an opportunity. As time passed the frog eventually dropped its guard. Fang Yun muscles instantly tightened, attacking the frog with lightning-like speed.

        His mouth opened, biting the black-spotted frog, not letting it go even as it struggled. Finally, after a minute of trashing, the frog stopped moving. Only then did he release his fangs.

        As the frog fell into his mouth, he slowly swallowed it, causing a small bulge to raise in his stomach.

        At the same time, his stomach began to secrete a large amount of strong acidic gastric juice, digesting the black-spotted frog that he had just swallowed in a short time.

        Having finished his meal, Fang Yun rushed towards the pile of rocks on his left, slithering into them.

        Inside the rock pile was a huge abandoned ant mound. There are no ants left, allowing it to become a temporary hiding place for Fang Yun.

        He laid down in the nest as he quietly digested the black-spotted frog in his stomach.

        Snakes are very slow to digest, especially snakes that are still in their adolescent stage. However, because of the particularity of Fang Yun himself, in less than an hour, he completely digested the frog.

        Ring! "The host has successfully gained 1 bio-energy." The previous mechanical voice once again sounded in Fang Yun's mind.

        Hearing this voice, Fang Yun, who had been resting his eyes, opened them to look at the panel in front of himself. Letting out a sigh of relief, Fang Yun said in his mind, "System, open my information panel."

        A curtain of light appeared in front of him, and on this light curtain was a line of text:

        Host: Fang Yun

        Race: grey snake (variant species)

        Status: Juvenile period

        World: Blue Planet (Earth-like Planet)

        Main task: The host taking the role "Gray Snake", must get 10 million reputation points in the world "Blue Planet".

        Mission period: A grey snake life cycle (ten years)

        Task Tip: The host can hunt prey, gain bio-energy and evolve himself, improving his power and ability to gain the required reputation value in the world "Blue Star".

        If the host does not gain sufficient reputation point before the character "grey snake" naturally or accidentally dies, the system will determine that the task has failed and will execute the penalty of completely killing the host, Body and Soul.

        Host property list: not expanded

        After browsing the text on the information panel, Fang Yun couldn't help but sigh.

        It has been ten days since he came to this world, but he still has an unreal feeling, and in his heart, he is always hoping that this is just a dream and that he will eventually wake up.

        But every time he looked at the system panel in his mind, he has to recognize the reality. He really did cross over to another world, and most importantly he reincarnated as a snake.

        Fang Yun, 18 years old, a high school student without any defining characteristic and no bad habits; An average high school student. That's why he doesn't know why this happened to him, why this system chose him.

        Ten days ago he set off from home, as usual, going to school to attend classes. Unexpectedly, this system appears halfway to school, killing him and taking him directly to this earth-like planet.

        On the first day of crossing into this world, Fang Yun's mind was filled with boundless fear and despair.

        Unlike the excitement of those who cross to new worlds in online novels, he was particularly depressed.

        After all, crossing means that he can no longer meet his parents, relatives, and friends, surviving alone in this world. Without even mentioning the fact, of all the things that he can reincarnate into, he reincarnated as a snake.

        In such a state of panic, Fang Yun kept praying in his heart, hoping that God would send him back again.

        But what he prayed for was not realized. In the end, he could only accept his reality with helplessness, planning on how he could complete the system's main task.

        Not to mention that this bastard of a system that brought him to this place said that if he died, he would die completely, both body and soul, with no chance of ever reincarnating.

        Life is better than death. Even if he became a snake, Fang Yun did not want to die so easily. He wants to try to complete the system task. Maybe then he would have a chance to go home in the future.

        Fang Yun's emotions are very complicated in regards to this system in his mind. On the one hand, this system is the culprit, killing him and then taking him to this broken place, but on the other, he has to rely on this system to survive.

        This system is called the Universe Adventurer System. As its name implies, it is a system that can take Fang Yun on an adventure throughout the Universe.

        But looking at the information on the system panel, If he wants to survive and possibly go back home, he has to complete the task assigned to him by the system; to earn 10 million reputation points in this world.


 
        These so-called reputation points, according to the interpretation of the system, is his fame in this world. The louder his name in the world, the higher his reputation value will be.

        However, Fang Yun is still an ordinary snake, not to mention earning reputation value, even if it's simply surviving, it is still very difficult.

        "If I want to complete this task just relying on myself, I don't know when it will be completed. Fortunately, this system provides me with some convenience."

        In the current world, Fang Yun can gain bio-energy by consuming various prey, and bio-energy allows him to evolve and grow up quickly.

        Five days ago, Fang Yun experienced his first evolution, causing his physical attributes to increase linearly. 

        Looking at the last word in the last line of the information panel, after the "host attribute list," he said in his mind, "System, expand my properties panel".

        The next moment, the curtain of light in his mind flickered, and the text refreshed.

        Host property list:

        Level: 2

        Bio-energy: 10/15 (once bio-energy is full, the host can evolve)

        Skill Points: 1 (rewarded by the system after the evolution, used to activate and upgrade skills)

        Body length: 20cm

        Diameter: 0.7cm

        Strength: 0.1

        Defense: 0.05

        Speed: 0.2

        Agility: 0.2 

        Spirit: 1.2

        Physical strength: 0.5

        Skill: None

        Reputation value: 0/10000000 (you don't have any sort of fame in this world)

        Seeing that he only needs 5 bio-energy points to upgrade, Fang Yun's couldn't help but cheer up. Once he evolves again, his body properties will certainly increase.

        In this way, his ability to live in this world will become more solid.

        Feeling more secure, Fang Yun is no longer anxious or trying to complete the system main task, but strives to let himself evolve.

        His current place is in a jungle that is inaccessible, or at least in the ten days after Fang Yun's rebirth, he did not find any signs of humans.

        In such a jungle, there is certainly no shortage of animals.

        Fortunately, in the area around his nest, Fang Yun hadn't found any carnivorous beasts yet, but this does not mean that he can take the situation lightly.

        Because he is too small now. With his current size, even many of the small rodents and animals are his natural enemies: mice, lizards, owls…

        While going out to hunt, he will likely encounter at least one of these natural enemies of his.

        Therefore, it is very important to strengthen himself as soon as possible to gain the ability to live in this jungle.

        Thinking of this, Fang Yun shifted around, wanting to hunt while it was still bright. Slithering forward, he leaves his den to see if he can find other prey.

Fang Yun has become a snake and got a system, the system requires him to brush up to 10 million reputation values, or face eternal death. So Fang Yun began to crazily upgrade!

A beautiful outdoor streamer in the mountains, facing the camera and the live friends sending gifts but was caught by a one-meter-long python.

3,000 meters above the sea surface, Lake Logar is suspected of the appearance of water monsters, causing a large number of tourists to explore.

On the calm sea, a luxurious cruise ship is slowly moving forward. Visitors stood on the deck as the sea breeze blow. Suddenly, someone found that under the water behind their cruise ship, a black shadow hundred of meters long is following closely.

This is not my story. I so not claim it as such and will thus not be turning on any sort of restrictions or locked chapters. 

I have tried to find the original author and translator, however I am unsure if I’ve found the right one. If they are wrong please do write it and I will change it. 

I have not found the original story and every site have different amounts of chapters so I will link the site on novel updates where you can find what I hope are the original author and translators.

Please do enjoy as this only meant to spread the story on to this platform.
