The peak of the snow mountain was enveloped by dark clouds.
A terrifying giant python circled within the gloomy clouds. Just a small part of its body was enough to terrify its opponents and make their hearts shudder in fear.
It pushed its large head out of the dark clouds and stared down at the two humans below with its chilly gaze.
Unexpectedly, one of the humans didnt seem to possess any fear towards it. His expression was extremely calm.
This expression isnt right!
This isnt right!
How could a mere human remain composed in front of me, the Nether World Giant Python?
When did my force of presence drop so low?
A tinge of confusion floated in the Nether World Giant Pythons heart. It didnt understand, so it opened its mouth and spoke to Wang Teng, Human!
Wang Teng was sizing up the giant python and comparing his ability with it. He felt that he could kill his opponent and was wondering how to do it when he suddenly heard the giant python addressing him.
It wasnt strange for this star beast to speak. After all, it was extremely powerful, so it must have high intelligence.
The weird thing was, it was speaking in Earths language.
This was a little interesting. Was this giant python born on this Earth? Was that why it could speak their language?
But when did such a frightening star beast appear on Earth?
It didnt make sense!
Wang Teng was in deep thought.
The giant python got furious when it saw the human ignoring it. Anger welled up in its heart, and its gaze froze over.
Human, who gave you the balls to ignore me! An angry bellow came from the giant pythons mouth. A powerful force of presence pressed down on him from the sky.
Wang Teng and Zhou Xuanwu were hit directly. The force pushed against their bodies.
Zhou Xuanwus face turned slightly pale. He took a step back uncontrollably and was flabbergasted.
What a terrifying aura!
He knew that this giant python was formidable, but he didnt expect just its aura to be so suffocating. It was incredible.
Why are you shouting? My eardrums are itching from the vibration, Wang Teng regained his senses and said in a contemptuous tone. He dug his ear with his finger.
Silence.
Zhou Xuanwu looked at Wang Teng helplessly. He felt that this fellows focus point was a little off.
Huh? The Nether World Giant Python was astounded. This human didnt get affected by its presence?
Looks like his ability is not bad!
No wonder he could maintain his composure. So this is his confidence!
When Wang Teng was hiding his ability, he looked ordinary on the surface. Even the Nether World Giant Python couldnt see his true power.
Suddenly, disdain and mockery appeared in its eyes. The humans on Earth didnt have any legacies, so they could only struggle at the general stage. No matter how strong this human was, he could only be at the general stage.
A general-stage human martial warrior was as weak as an ant in front of it. The confidence this human thought he could rely on would be easily shattered.
This was its confidence as an emperor-level star beast!
For star beasts, the emperor level was similar to the planetary stage.
The Nether World Giant Python suddenly recalled the hardships it went through in its life. It started to shed tears of sorrow. In the past, it was still a naive and innocent little snake playing happily in the valley. After it got tired of playing, it would go home to find its mother. Life was mundane but joyful.
However, it didnt know that it was a little snake that was meant to become a protagonist.
One day, it climbed up this snow mountain out of curiosity and noticed an interesting little crack.
It swore that it only used its tail to tap it cautiously because it found it interesting and wanted to play with it.
It was just a light tap. It never thought of entering the crack.
However, the situation went beyond its expectations. A powerful suction force came out of the little crack and sucked it in.
That was what happened. It wasnt its fault!
The force was so strong that it got sucked right in.
The little snake fainted after it entered the crack. When it woke up, it realized that it was in a strange place. The surroundings were pitch-black. The sky was dark and looked terrifying!
It wanted to go back home to find its mother, but it couldnt find the small crack anymore. It had no choice but to roam around this strange world...
However, there were many frightening huge beasts here. They were malicious and wanted to eat it. Once they spotted it, they would pounce on it like hungry beggars. It was so scared that it scurried away in fear.
However, it was destined to be a protagonist. It managed to escape every time and remained alive. Finally, one day, it was chased by a terrifying large beast to a cliff. It had nowhere to run, so it could only jump down.
At that moment, its eyes were filled with tears of regret.
Mother, I should have listened to you. I shouldnt have run around. I shouldnt have touched that little crack... Mother, if theres another lifetime, I promise I will be an obedient child...
It closed its eyes and waited for a round of excruciating pain before it left this hellish world.
But things werent as simple as it thought.
It managed to survive. It got tangled into some vines and dangled in mid-air.
Come on, it was a snake. Vines couldnt trap it. It crawled out slowly from the vines and slid down the cliff. It was only around ten meters away from the bottom.
There was a deep pool right below the cliff. It seemed bottomless, and it was giving off a bone-chilling cold.
The little snake was born to love the cold. When it saw the ice pool, the injuries on its body seemed to hurt less, and the uneasiness in its heart disappeared.
It seemed to have found its home. It hurriedly dragged its injured body and wriggled towards the pool with all its energy.
Plonk!
It finally slithered into the pool. The ice-cold water might be lethal to other creatures, but to the little snake, it was the perfect tonic. It closed its eyes comfortably.
From then on, the pool became its home.
There were no frightening large beasts here to eat it, and this place was a huge playground. It considered it as its amusement park.
As it stayed longer and longer in the ice pool, it got stronger and stronger. Its body grew bigger until one day, it got enlightened and possessed the intelligence of a human.
It knew how to think and became a thoughtful snake!
It was unwilling to stay here and wished to leave this place. However, before departing, it wanted to swim into the depth of the pool to discover its secret.
This ice pool was strange. The chill it gave off strengthened its ability. Besides, there was a strange power in it. In the past, it didnt understand, but after gaining intelligence, it knew what it was.
Hence, it decided to swim to the bottom of the pool.
It headed in the direction of the chill and swam all the way until it saw a gigantic skeleton.
The skeleton was half covered by the soil. It circled the entire pool, and there seemed no end to it. The snake was at the location where the skull was.
It saw an uneven round crystal floating inside the skull. It was giving off a faint mysterious glow and an ice-cold stream of energy, which spread to the entire pool.
The snake couldnt shift its gaze away after seeing the crystal. It had a lethal attraction toward it.
