Chapter 76

Yu Sui slept very warmly that night. Xu, who had lost the fight, fell asleep at the entrance of the cave. He turned into a snow wolf and moved with difficulty in the narrow cave while cursing. He slept at the door to block the cold wind.

Qi ignored his nagging and kept a calm expression, but Yu Sui saw a hint of pride in his eyes.

Feeling quite puzzled, Yu Sui always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with the way these two people got along...

Finally, Qi laid a thick layer of animal skin on Yu Sui's bed and slept beside the embers of the fire for the whole night.

The next morning, they set out on their journey. Qi also took fresh tiger meat with him so that they wouldn't have to eat dried meat for the next two days. Yu Sui didn't like the stinky smell of dried meat.

Yu Sui was amazed along the way. Although magical beasts rarely appeared in winter, the noise they made while traveling would scare many magical beasts and cause them to flee in all directions.

This was the first time that Yu Sui had seen so many living monsters. All he had seen before were dead creatures hunted by the tribe's warriors.

There are many huge monsters in this mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles. Qi and Xu will avoid each other when they get close to each other's territory, which adds a lot of distance for them.

But there are exceptions, just like now, Yu Sui saw from afar that a white smoke was rising from a towering tree not far in front of them, and it lasted for a long time before rushing into the sky.

There's a chimney here? Yu Sui wondered.

"What is this? It looks like smoke, but it doesn't smell like burning."

Qi's voice became deeper after he transformed into a snow wolf. "That's the airflow from the Sky-Swallowing Python's breath."

Breathing? Yu Sui's eyes widened in disbelief. Just the breathing itself was so exaggerated. How big must this monster be? Just the name itself sounded awesome.

"Is it more powerful than a seventh-level monster?" Yu Sui asked with interest.

Xu's cheerful laughter was heard, "When we were little, we were all frightened by our parents using the Sky-Swallowing Python. How could it be only level seven?"

"It is the only divine beast on this continent. It is said to be on the verge of evolving to the tenth level. It has been sleeping on this land for thousands of years and will not wake up easily."

Qiwei explained to Yu Sui.

Tenth level... Yu Sui thought that the Scorpion-tailed Lion was already very powerful, but compared with this Sky-Swallowing Python, it was nothing.

So this place is also a famous attraction in the Fantasy Continent, the sleeping King of Hell. No wonder this is the most peaceful route for them. I guess even monsters dare not approach here.

"Then it will be okay for us to pass by here..."

Hearing that this monster was so powerful, Yu Sui asked worriedly.

Xu's laughter turned into a mocking laugh. "Xu Yu Sui is as timid as he is tall. The Sky-Swallowing Python has been sleeping for so long, how could it possibly wake up just because we passed by?"

Hearing this, Yu Sui silently rolled his eyes, clutched the wolf fur under him, and looked ahead with curiosity and nervousness.

"Its territory is too vast. If it wakes up, this entire mountain range will be off-limits, so there's no need for us to take a detour."

Qi spoke slowly, but his feet did not stop, getting closer and closer to the white smoke.

"In fact, its body is under our feet." Xu's long hair fluttered in the air as he ran. He accelerated to catch up with Qi, and looked at Yu Sui with his huge black eyes with a smile.

Yu Sui stood up and looked around, somewhat unconvinced by Xu's words.

There are clearly trees and rocks all around, so how could there be the body of a giant python? Brother Xu is now increasingly fond of lying to children.

Seeing that Yu Sui didn't believe him, Xu became anxious. "I'm not kidding. This entire mountain range is covered in his body. If the Sky-Swallowing Python wakes up one day, these mountains will collapse."

"He's right. There's only its head there. Its body is all under our feet. If the beast moves, the whole continent can feel it."

Qi laughed a few times and said the same thing.

Knowing that they had aroused the cubs' curiosity, the two snow wolves deliberately moved closer.

Passing through the giant trees with dense branches that blocked out the sun, the land was unexpectedly quiet, and Yu Sui couldn't help but slow down his breathing.

The further they went in, the denser the branches became, until the gaps between the trees became difficult for both of them to walk through, and they finally managed to get through.

Yu Sui's eyes widened as he looked at the steep mountain in front of him in shock.

The extremely high mountain was extremely steep, almost as dangerous as Mount Tai, which Yu Sui had climbed before. The most shocking thing was that at the top of the mountain, one could vaguely see the shape of a snake's head.

The giant python closed its eyes tightly, its body twisting and undulating. It was unknown how long it had been sleeping. Trees and rocks grew all over its body, as if it had merged with the earth.

One could feel the majesty of the pitch-black snake just by looking at it. Yu Sui's eyesight was now better than before, and he could even see the scales of the snake if he squinted his eyes.

The white smoke that rushed into the sky was emitted from the head of the big snake. At the same time, a faint light of jagged rocks could be seen on the top of the mountain.

"Brother Qi, what's that shiny thing? Could it be that the magic core of a tenth-level magical beast is outside its body?"

Yu Sui didn't dare to speak loudly and asked in a low voice.

Qi also looked up at that place, his eyes filled with respect and ambition for the strong.

"A tenth-order magical beast is already a divine beast. It can generate a large amount of energy with just a breath. It is a high-level spiritual plant that has been nurtured for a long time."

Xu Datou came up to Yu Sui with a grin and said, "Those spiritual plants are very valuable, but unfortunately there is a domain above them, so we can't get up there."

Yu Sui nodded, not quite understanding. He knew about spiritual plants, but usually only low-level spiritual plants could be seen. High-level spiritual plants were extremely rare. And it was well known that there must be ferocious beasts next to treasures. Here, the high-level spiritual plants were guarded by high-level magical beasts.

They, the snow wolves, did not cultivate magic power, and the low-level spiritual plants they collected were only regarded as slightly palatable food. At most, they could enhance their physical strength, but they were of no great help.

Although orcs are naturally powerful and have an advantage, there are always gains and losses, and many things have little effect on orcs.

After satisfying their curiosity, the three of them started on their journey again. They walked a long way before they saw any traces of various magical beast activities.

For Warcraft, this giant sky-swallowing python is probably the ancestor, but this ancestor has fallen into a deep sleep, so the safety factor of this mountain range is much higher than that of the Fantasy Moon Forest.

I heard that although there are no divine beasts in the Fantasy Moon Forest, there are magical beasts as high as level eight or nine, and they are very active. They are no match for them, and it would be very dangerous if they were accidentally caught in their fight.

There are also orc tribes living in this mountain range, and it is said that there are also dwarf tribes.

Small orcs cannot survive here. It is said that except for the brown bear tribe, the remaining tribes are all large snake tribes.

The snake tribe probably chose to live here out of admiration. When Yu Sui heard these things, he got goose bumps all over his body. He was most afraid of snakes.

Humans are genetically programmed to be afraid of snakes. Even though he has become an orc now, he is still terrified at the thought of a scaly, slippery snake.
