Chapter 331: Hidden Danger of the Serpent Soul

"The soul of this Ancient Heaven Serpent is not that simple," Venerable Tian Huo stated, remaining vigilant as his face displayed no signs of joy despite the smooth progress.

As someone who had existed as a soul for countless years, he had a deep understanding of soul bodies. Based on his judgment, if the soul body of the Ancient Heaven Serpent had resisted, they would have needed to exert considerable effort to subdue it.

The fact that the serpent soul was not resisting now meant it had its own plans.

"I will find a way to neutralize its ability to resist," Xiao Ming declared, squinting his eyes as he fixed his gaze on the massive Ancient Heaven Serpent.

The serpent's soul was currently obedient because it lacked a physical body. If it wanted to survive in Qing Lin's body, It could only let itself be controlled by her Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils. However, as the power of the Ancient Heaven Serpent gradually recovered, it would inevitably attempt to overpower its master and take control of her, leading to an alternative kind of resurrection.

But with Xiao Ming present, it could only dream about that.

In Xiao Ming's eyes, the Ancient Heaven Serpent was nothing more than a tool. He knew how to erode its will, such as by cultivating in the Ancient Dragon Tomb on Ancient Dragon Island. It served as the resting place of ancient dragons over generations and contained an extremely abundant dragon energy that could suppress the nine-headed Heavenly Serpent's soul, allowing it to be fully refined and absorbed.

When the time was right, he would make the necessary arrangements. With his connection to Zi Yan, she would undoubtedly support his decision. By then, Qing Lin's strength would also skyrocket.

Speaking of increasing strength, Xiao Ming thought of his partner.

After condensing the Poison Pill, Xiao Yi Xian's strength would also increase to some extent, making it possible for her to reach the low-star Dou Venerate level without much difficulty. If there was an advanced version of the Poison Pill Method, the Poison Mark Method, her strength would increase even further.

Currently, the Poison Mark Method was not available, but the Poison Pill was feasible.

However, they still needed a place with abundant Yang Qi, which was not easy to find.

The only place Xiao Ming knew of was the Sun Fire Ancient Altar of the Ye Clan.

With his thoughts in motion, Xiao Ming contemplated his next steps:

'It has been a few months since I've been away. It's about time for me to return and officially assume my position as one of the Eight Great Elders. Moreover, I can leverage the Pill Tower's extensive network to search for the burial place of the Woeful Poison Body.'

The burial ground of the Ancient Heaven Serpent seemed exceptionally special, and Xiao Ming even discovered that it had a blocking effect on exploration. But it was still a little disappointing.

Just as Xiao Ming was feeling regretful, Qing Lin looked up and said, "... Young Master, when we subdued the Ancient Heaven Serpent's soul, I managed to obtain fragments of information from it. This blood pool was formed after its fall, and it holds great power for snakes. Perhaps we can allow Xiao Cai to absorb it."

Xiao Ming looked at the blood pool in surprise. It seemed that this had not been mentioned in the simulations before.

Thinking of the features of the simulator, Xiao Ming shook his head inwardly. The simulator was like this. It was impossible to present every detail of the simulated life.

"Does it have a great effect on snakes?" Xiao Ming whispered as he raised his right hand, rolling up his sleeve to reveal a small seven-colored snake coiled around his wrist.

With a flick of his finger, he lightly tapped the head of the small snake. In response, the snake shook and slowly opened its eyes.

As the seven-colored snake awakened, it floated in front of Xiao Ming. Its tiny head rubbed against his cheek, exuding an affectionate demeanor.

Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin, who were standing beside him, couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy when they witnessed the snake's affection for Xiao Ming.

Women naturally found cute creatures irresistible, and the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python was no exception. Otherwise, Xiao Ming wouldn't have brought it along on their journey.

Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin were aware that the seven-colored snake was none other than Medusa, but they still found it incredibly endearing. However, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python showed intimacy only towards Xiao Ming and Zi Yan, displaying a rather cold attitude towards others unless they brought food in front of it.

Venerable Tian Huo observed the scene silently, sometimes he couldn't help but marvel at Xiao Ming's fortunate encounters. He was surrounded by individuals with extraordinary physiques and bloodlines - the Woeful Poison Body, the Triple Jade-Green Snake Flower Pupils, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, and even Zi Yan, that little girl was also not simple.

"Okay, okay."

He pointed towards the not-so-wide pool of blood and said, "Go and see if that thing is helpful to you."

The Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python halted its movements, its curiosity piqued by Xiao Ming's gesture. It followed his finger, directing its gaze towards the blood pool brimming with potent energy.

Hiss!

With a swift movement of its tail, the rainbow-colored snake vanished from Xiao Ming's sight, reappearing above the blood pool.
