Chapter 4: The Shadow Serpent

This Shadow Serpent is a descendant of the Ancient Shadow Dragon, an ancient xenomorph, and has the ability to blend perfectly into shadows, making it a natural stalker, or more appropriately, a killer.

Because once they merge into the shadow, they will merge with the shadow, and they will not be able to detect it with the naked eye, even if the divine mind cannot open a large enough gap with the level of the shadow dragon, they will not be able to find it.

An adult shadow dragon can even hide in the shadow of the Great Emperor for several years without being discovered, which is terrifying.

It's a pity that the number of shadow dragons is very small, and there have only been more than a dozen in total, coupled with the cruel fertility of the dragon clan, so the shadow dragon has been extinct hundreds of thousands of years ago.

However, their bloodline did not disappear with their extinction, but was preserved in various forms, just like other dragons.

The shadow snake in front of him had a wisp of blood in the body of the shadow dragon, but because its level and blood content were too low, it was easy to be discovered by Wu Chen.

"Don't hide, come out. Wu Chen yelled at the little guy.

With the blood of the shadow dragon, this snake is no longer an ordinary brute beast, and the spirit has long been born, although it can't be spoken, but it can still be done by listening to some simple words.

And this shadow snake's intelligence is obviously not low, it doesn't believe that anyone can find it at all, so it didn't run out because of Wu Chen's words at all, and still stayed where it was.

"It's kind of interesting. After Wu Chen finished speaking, he sucked it in with his right hand and sucked it into his hand.

This little guy is only half a meter long, the thickness of chopsticks, and looks like a slender willow branch, all gray, which can blend perfectly with the shadow.

It didn't seem to expect that it would actually be discovered, and it looked a little panicked, and the elm tree struggled desperately.

But after struggling for a while, he realized that he was not Wu Chen's opponent at all, so his body softened and drooped down like a noodle.

"Don't play dead for me, or I'll stew you in soup. Wu Chen was not deceived by this little thing's tricks, and immediately threatened.

Although the Shadow Snakes have a powerful ancestor, they themselves are weak and pitiful, especially before they have advanced to the Demon Beast, they have almost no attack power to speak of.

Therefore, in the early stage, they are very timid, and they will slip away as soon as the wind blows, and coupled with their special ability to blend into the shadows, it is almost difficult to be discovered.

Because of this, they usually feed on the carcasses of small insects or brute beasts.

This time, the reason why it took the initiative to ambush Wu Chen was because Wu Chen had just arrived at its territory, and it originally wanted to wait for Wu Chen to relax his vigilance and then immediately slip away.

But just as it was about to slip away, it found that Wu Chen's aura was very weak, making it feel that it could completely take it down.

So, it changed its mind.

But it never dreamed that this seemingly weak person would be able to find it and easily catch it, which made it regret that it had not done it at the beginning.

When he found that he couldn't break free, he instinctively chose to play dead, in order to deceive Wu Chen's eyes.

It turned out to be a big disappointment.

As soon as it heard that Wu Chen was going to stew it, where did it dare to pretend to be dead, it immediately stood up, and looked at Wu Chen pitifully, as if to say, "Don't kill me".

"Don't worry, not only will I not kill you, but I will also give you some benefits. Wu Chen didn't expect that this little guy's heart had so many twists and turns, and he stretched out his index finger and pointed at the head of the shadow snake.

With a flash of golden light, an exercise called "Dragon Transformation Technique" was implanted into the memory of the Shadow Snake.

"Dragon Transformation Technique" is a high-level beast decision, especially suitable for all brute beasts with true dragon bloodline to cultivate, it is said that the cultivation to the extreme can even incarnate into a real dragon.

Whether this statement is true or not, Wu Chen doesn't know, but he has seen the matter of demon beasts turning into dragons with his own eyes, so this statement should not be groundless.

And the reason why he didn't kill this shadow snake and gave it a technique was because Wu Chen felt that it was a pity to kill such a rare species.

"Remember, don't come out again until you break through to the demon beast, if you get caught by someone else, you won't have such good luck. With that, Wu Chen let go of his hand and let it go.

Although the shadow snake is rare, the dragon blood in its body is scarce, and its potential is limited, if nothing else, even with the help of the "Dragon Transformation Technique", it is already the limit when it reaches the level of demon beasts, and it is not worth spending a lot of energy to cultivate.

This shadow snake didn't seem to expect Wu Chen to let himself go, but it didn't care about anything else for the rest of its life, and it turned into a black shadow and disappeared among the grass in one fell swoop.

But it didn't take long for it to run back again.

"Why are you coming back, you still want to sneak up on me?" Wu Chen was a little strange, this was not quite in line with the habits of the Shadow Snake.

But the shadow snake looked at him with a somewhat complicated look as if it hadn't heard Wu Chen's words, and suddenly, as if it had made a decision, it stepped forward and bit Wu Chen's pants and pulled them in one direction.

"Do you want me to go with you?" Wu Chen asked a little strangely.

Hearing Wu Chen's words, the Shadow Snake immediately nodded, and then burrowed into the grass again, but this time it didn't go a few meters before it stopped again, looked back at Wu Chen, and saw that he was following, so it continued to move forward.

It didn't take long for them to come to a lake, and the Shadow Snake looked at Wu Chen, and then loaded into the lake.

"What the hell does this little thing want to do?" Wu Chen was a little strange, but out of curiosity, he also jumped into the lake, and at the same time, his mind let go and scanned the lake in Zhejiang.

But when he swept to the bottom of the lake, he found a strange place.

Because he found that his divine thoughts could not penetrate the soil below, as if something was blocking his divine thoughts.

The shadow snake in front of him kept diving, and soon took Wu Chen to a pitch-black cave entrance.

The Shadow Serpent then jumped straight into the hole.

At this time, Wu Chen hesitated a little, he was worried about what danger there was in this cave, after all, his divine thoughts could not penetrate, which made him very insecure.

But after waiting for a while, the shadow snake seemed to find that Wu Chen didn't follow, so it came out of the black hole again, shouted at Wu Chen twice, and drilled down again.

"Judging by the appearance of this little thing, there shouldn't be any danger down here. Wu Chen thought about it and jumped down.

As soon as he entered this black hole, Wu Chen's eyes lit up, and when he looked closely, this was actually a huge karst cave, and a huge luminous crystal was embedded in the top of the cave, illuminating the entire cave.

Then, he looked into the cave, and a behemoth appeared in front of him.

"It's ......"
