Qin Shi had seen this little snake's abilities before, so when he saw the Cloud Tripod Sect disciples look down on this inconspicuous little fellow, he couldn't help but gloat in his heart, "How dare you underestimate this little guy. These little rascals will suffer."
As expected, just as the Cloud Tripod Sect disciples were about to rush into the cave entrance, a disciple who was only at the early Spirit Sealing realm had his foot ring bitten by the seven-colored little snake.
"Ah!"
With a painful howl, the few disciples at the side panicked. They raised the weapons in their hands and chopped towards the small multicolored snake. However, most of the weapons in this group of people's hands were Common grade weapons. They only had a few spirit weapons, and they were only low-grade weapons. How could they injure the seven-colored little snakes?
Bang!
The Seven-Colored Serpent Qilin broke a mortal weapon.
"Hiss hiss, this little guy is weird."
"Damn, I've underestimated this little guy. Why is it so powerful?"
The few of them had invaded the small seven-colored snake's territory. It was as if it had been injected with chicken blood as it attacked recklessly. When it saw someone, it would open its big mouth and ruthlessly bite them.
In the blink of an eye, seven or eight disciples were wounded, but not even the little snake was hurt.
"B-big brother, what should we do?" The few of them panicked as they asked the leader impatiently.
The disciple leading them was also stunned. He gritted his teeth and asked, "What do we do? What could he do? Run! "
"Run, big brother said run, this beast is too strong, we are not its match, go back quickly and call us over." Hearing the word "run", the group of disciples did not dare to hesitate any longer. One by one, they turned around and ran with their lives on the line.
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
But would the little snake let them run so easily?
Obviously not. The little snake's body was drawing 'S' on the ground. It relied on its flexible abdomen to quickly swim around the forest. In the blink of an eye, it pounced towards the few people around it.
Qin Shi stood at the side and was overjoyed. Looking at the Cloud Tripod Sect disciples being defeated, the corners of his mouth raised in delight as he muttered, "Heh heh, these unlucky bastards, now do they understand what a snake looks like?"
However, just as Qin Shi was about to rise up, his gaze shifted. He saw a disciple of the Cloud Tripod Sect with a sharp beak and fox cheeks, climbing up the back of the mountain and taking advantage of the chaos to rush into the cave.
"This kid is quite smart."
Qin Shi's mind spun as he stared at this disciple with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.
He groped his way into the cave, his eyes shining brightly. Finally, they landed on the skeleton of the Rainbow Cloud Snake. He kicked the skeleton a few times, separating the skull from the torso. After holding it up, a look of excitement appeared in his eyes.
Then, ignoring the screams of his brothers outside, he ran down the mountain in panic when the little snake didn't notice him.
"Trying to run?" Qin Shi's eyes narrowed at this sight and let out a snort of contempt. His body flickered as he rushed in front of the disciple with monkey like mouth and pulled out his Bloodthirsty Sword. He laughed coldly, "Hehe, this brother. Is your decisiveness in selling off your teammates a little too kind?"
Being blocked by Qin Shi, the disciple was shocked in his heart, "You, who are you?"
"Who am I? There was no need to know about those who were on the verge of death. "You said that you're not even going to spare his corpse, that's simply worse than an animal. Tell me, how do you want to die?" Looking him up and down, this person was only at the middle stage of the Spirit Sealing Realm. He was completely unable to enter Qin Shi's eyes.
Seeing Qin Shi, the sharp-tongued disciple bared his teeth and pulled out a sharp sword, saying coldly, "Hmph, a Middle Spirit Sealing Realm disciple from the Li Huo Sect, do you think you can kill me? I think the one who's going to die should be you. "
"Wrong, wrong, this young master is so carefree, the beauties of the world cannot bear to see this young master die!" Qin Shi smirked as he shook his head. Then, his eyes turned serious. "The one who will die will be you, you scary bastard." Just as he finished speaking, the Vampiric Sword in his hand turned. The instant the blade and the scarlet sun clashed, nine streaks of sword aura filled the sky, and with lightning speed, they took away the disciple's life.
After killing this person, Qin Shi held up the skull.
At this moment, the small snake had already bitten the other seven disciples to death. Only then did it notice the battle occurring on Qin Shi's side. In an instant, its anger flared as it charged forward without even thinking.
"Here, take it."
When the little snake rushed over, Qin Shi smiled warmly and handed the skull over.
Seeing the skull, the little snake felt a wave of gratitude. It flicked its tongue out of its mouth and let out a hissing and hoarse sound.
"Enough, stop being pretentious with this young master. Just stop chasing me and call for a beating." Feeling the gratitude of the seven-colored snake, Qin Shi tentatively lifted his hand and touched the snake's head. Then, his gaze stopped at the cave.
There was definitely a treasure in this cave.
However, Qin Shi did not want to take advantage of the situation. He helplessly shook his head and sighed, "Ah, this isn't his own luck."
Thinking of this, Qin Shi turned around and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, the little multicolored snake suddenly approached Qin Shi and bit his leg.
Qin Shi furrowed his brows as his pants was bitten. He asked with a puzzled expression, "Little rascal, you can't be asking for a debt of gratitude and an enmity, right?"
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!" The little multicolored snake bit the bottom of Qin Shi's pants, shaking its head while making hissing sounds.
"Stone, he wants you to bury her mother's body for him." The book's jade floated out. As a girl, there were tears in her eyes as she delicately said, "It, it said that it was too small and its mother had died many years ago. Now, there is only loess and bones left, but it hasn't been able to help my mother settle down."
"It said that you are a good person. As long as you can help it and help its mother, it will be willing to help even if it has to take her life." The words of the Jade in the book rang in Qin Shi's ears like an ancient tomb bell. Qin Shi only felt a buzzing sound in his head as he felt some pain.
So did the beasts, and the men?
How many people did not care about kinship because of their skills?
"Shitou, let's help him, okay? This little guy is so pitiful." The Jade in the book begged.
With a frown on his face, Qin Shi didn't give him an answer. He picked up the skull from the ground and walked step by step towards the cave entrance. As he reached this point, he drew both the Bloodthirsty Sword and the Azure Snow Sword at the same time. The two blades fell to the ground like a torrential downpour.
All the emotions of the raging waves were completely vented on the earth.
Just like this, after countless of attacks, a three meter square pit appeared. Afterwards, Qin Shi walked quietly into the cave and placed the dead Rainbow Cloud Snake skeletons one by one into the hole. He channeled his spirit energy to bury the piles of dirt around him.
As it was doing this, the seven-colored little snake was watching from the side. It did not make a sound or cry, but its eyes were filled with unspeakable sorrow.
After filling up the hole, Qin Shi waved his sword, and with a 'whoosh', a streak of sword light appeared. The ancient tree at the side had been broken at the waist. After it broke, Qin Shi split the ancient tree into a tombstone and carved a few large words on it: Tomb of the Rainbow Cloud Snake. He stood firmly in front of the pit and bowed deeply.
"Rest in peace!"
Taking a deep breath, Qin Shi said.
After carving the tombstone, the seven-colored snake wiggled its body and stuck its head into the ground.
A drop of imperceptible tears flowed out of its eyes and merged into the soil.
"Ahh, to part with one's life and death is fated. I hope this little guy can understand how to change his fate." Qin Shi clenched his fist tightly as he looked at the grief-stricken little snake. His fingernails dug into his palm, causing him to feel a wave of pain.
The jade in the book, as a girl, was already full of tears.
"Let's go." Not wanting to linger here, Qin Shi turned around.
However, at this moment, the little multicolored snake suddenly rushed forward and bit the bottom of Qin Shi's pants. A weak, hoarse voice came from its mouth, as if it was begging for something.
"Stone, he said he wants to follow you." Soon after, it began to cry again. "Why don't we bring it along? Look at its lonely appearance in this secret realm. It's really pitiful."
Qin Shi was stunned.
"This is quite new. To be able to bring an Earth Rank Huang Beast as a pet is a good choice." As he was joking around, Qin Shi rolled his eyes and nodded, "Alright, little guy. Seeing your pitiful appearance, big brother will take you in."
Seeing that Qin Shi had agreed, the seven-colored snake wiggled its body happily a few times and nimbly crawled along Qin Shi's calves, up his waist, and under his clothes. It then found a very comfortable position to lie down.
"Haha, this little fellow sure knows how to choose a place." When Qin Shi looked into his arms, he could not help but laugh. He saw the seven-colored little snake lying on his chest, making him think, "It looks like it's a female snake, and a small one at that."
"Shitou, you're so wicked."
Upon hearing Qin Shi's unorthodox words, the Jade in the book cursed in disgust, "So, I thought you were a man and a woman who ate both humans and beasts. I didn't expect you to be a beast that eats both humans and beasts!"
"That's …"
Qin Shi arrogantly raised his head and blinked his eyes. "Bullsh * t. When did this young master start eating both men and women?"
"Hehe, who knows." Yu from the book laughed very happily.
After this mess, Qin Shi couldn't be bothered to deal with the Jade in the book. He touched the seven-colored snake in his arms and said, "Little guy, look at your body covered with rainbow colored scales. From now on, I'll call you Little Mi Cai, right? What about the name? Isn't it a bit too foreign? "
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!" Little Mi Cai nodded. She really liked this name.
"Alright, Little Mi Cai, let's go." Qin Shi smiled and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, Little Mi Cai's body shrunk and tightened around Qin Shi's waist. "Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
"Shitou," Little Mimi said, "I told you to take a look inside the cave." In the book, Yu explained.
"A cave? I forgot about it. " Patting his head, Qin Shi came back to his senses, and could not help but become excited, he walked towards the cave with big steps, touching Little Mi Cai in his arms, praising her: "Little Mi Cai is good, you know how to respect your master, you are not like some people who only know how to oppose me!"
Little Mi Cai shook her head.
But in the book, Yu was gritting his teeth, "Who did you say?"
"I'll say whoever goes against me."
With a mocking reply, Qin Shi shrugged his shoulders and stepped into the cave.
The cave was very dark, and one couldn't even see his fingers when he stretched out his hand. When the cold wind blew, it sounded like a demon with fangs and claws constantly exploding in front of Qin Shi's ears, as if his soul would go insane because of it.
"How sinister." The moment he entered the cave, Qin Shi felt a chill down his spine. However, for the sake of the treasures inside, he could only bite the bullet and grope his way deeper into the cave. They continued to advance, but they didn't expect that the cave was so vast that they didn't even reach the end after a few turns.
He turned around a few times and saw that Qin Shi was about to give up. However, at this moment, a strong medicinal fragrance suddenly assaulted his nose. A faint purple glow flickered in front of him.
