24: Chapter 24 The Green Snake's Slow Life

Early in the morning.

The Green Super-Self-Disciplined Snake, having decided to change, got out of bed early.

He looked at the newly risen sun and swept his Divine Sense toward another snake den not far away.

It seemed to be sleeping soundly.

"As the future of the snake race, how can you still be sleeping so early in the morning!"

"You should know that the plan for the day begins in the morning!"

Xu Qing flew to the front of the Snake Cave, looking like he was lamenting its misfortune and angry that it wouldn't strive for better.

Then, he resolutely burrowed into the Snake Cave and dragged the Lazy Snake out.

Even after being dragged out, the Lazy Snake was still sleeping.

Xu Qing felt a bit dizzy, and the tail he used to grab the snake coil felt slightly numb.

It really was very poisonous.

Too poisonous!

Xu Qing was so envious; thinking about such a powerful skill being on this Lazy Snake made him even more envious.

"Wake up for This Snake!"

"Go for a morning flight right now!"

"You have over a hundred and thirty years of Dao Cultivation and are almost at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, yet your flight is only lv1. How can you sleep!"

The Lazy Snake raised its head, shook it, then lowered it again and continued to sleep.

You say your piece, I'll sleep mine.

Xu Qing could only use his tail to coil around pre-cut crocodile meat, luring the Three-Colored Venomous Snake into the air.

The Green Pokémon Master Snake!

Xu Qing felt a full sense of accomplishment.

Next, Xu Qing began to train the Silly Snake's Swiftness skill.

As expected, except for poison-type skills, the Silly Snake's other skills were eyesores.

As long as it didn't use poison, he could play with it however he wanted.

After a while, the Silly Snake was so angry it kept flicking its tongue.

Then it stopped training and crawled back into its cave in a huff.

It even used poison gas to seal the cave shut.

It looked like it was sulking.

Indeed, for a useless snake that spent its days slacking off, was such a fulfilling life still unacceptable?

But we are the future of the Yao Race; how can we stay in a cave and be a shut-in snake!

Xu Qing tried throwing a few pieces of crocodile meat into the poison mist.

Then he placed some crocodile meat in front of the cave.

Sure enough, after a while, the snake's head poked out.

Xu Qing used Crocodile Meat.

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake began to resist.

Capture successful.

Obtained a new Pokémon, Three-Colored Venomous Snake.

The second round of training began.

This time, Xu Qing appropriately went easy on it, carefully training the Three-Colored Venomous Snake.

After all, in order to squeeze this little snake's potential in the future, he had to raise its various skill levels.

Otherwise, when he fought in the future, This Snake's basic strength wouldn't even allow it to join in.

No matter how powerful that Snake Venom was, there would be no room to use it.

It was just like the previous fight with the crocodile Yao.

It was actually bounced back by the ice layer the crocodile condensed!

Clearly, their Dao Cultivation didn't differ by much, and the Three-Colored Venomous Snake's Bloodline and potential were far stronger than the Blue Ice Crocodile's.

My god, even the Resurrection Green Snake felt ashamed for This Snake.

The prestigious name of the Three-Colored Venomous Snake was completely dragged through the mud by This Snake.

A venomous snake that kills upon contact and dominates the world with its poison.

Heh.

[Ding, proficiency has reached the requirement]

[Learned skill: Poison Reduction lv1]

[Poison Reduction lv1] Reduces poison damage to a certain extent

As he flicked the Three-Colored Venomous Snake away with his tail, the System's voice rang out again at the moment of contact.

"Poison Reduction!"

"I actually obtained this skill!"

Xu Qing looked at the panel excitedly; a new skill had indeed appeared in the skill column.

"As expected!"

"As long as one is in contact with poison for a long time, resistance will inevitably be generated!"

"The Three-Colored Venomous Snake's poison actually has this kind of use!"

Xu Qing looked at the Three-Colored Venomous Snake excitedly.

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake widened its large eyes and tilted its head at Xu Qing, seemingly curious about what kind of fit this green-skinned snake was throwing now.

"Poison me!"

Xu Qing communicated the message excitedly.

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake looked at Xu Qing with a gaze used for idiots.

To be honest, being looked at by a Silly Snake with such a gaze made Xu Qing's mood quite complicated.

"A small amount of poison, don't make it too toxic."

Xu Qing continued to communicate the message.

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake rushed forward, and pale green poison gas floated in the surrounding air.

Xu Qing felt his head spinning slightly.

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake's eyes lit up, and it rushed forward, seemingly wanting to take the opportunity to turn the tables.

But it was easily slapped away by Xu Qing's tail.

It probably didn't have a clear idea of its own combat power.

"A little dizzy."

"Increase the poison's power!"

"Poison me!"

Before Xu Qing could finish, the Three-Colored Venomous Snake's poison gas became a bit denser.

It couldn't help but make the Green Snake suspect.

Was it taking the opportunity to seek revenge?

Forget it, for the sake of skill proficiency, he would forgive it.

"Hiss hiss~"

The two snakes continuously fought at a low altitude over the lake.

Xu Qing held back his strength, bit by bit improving the Three-Colored Venomous Snake's combat power during the training.

He also felt his head getting dizzier and dizzier, and the world before his eyes felt slightly blurred.

Moreover, he felt a bit like vomiting.

It was like motion sickness; as expected, he was going to throw up, it was poisonous enough.

"Blegh, blegh..."

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake saw its chance and rushed right in front of Xu Qing at this moment...

...

The next day.

"Cough cough, I really didn't mean it."

"Don't sulk anymore, here's some crocodile meat."

Xu Qing coiled in front of the Snake Cave, and the entrance was again blocked by poison gas.

Xu Qing, who only had lv1 Poison Reduction, didn't dare to burrow into the poison mist formed by lv5 Snake Venom.

Perhaps this was also a way to increase the proficiency of Snake Venom and poison gas.

"Hiss hiss~"

The three-colored head poked out, staring warily at Xu Qing.

Xu Qing threw the crocodile meat over.

The large vertical-slit eyes flashed with a light of wisdom, and it bit the crocodile meat in mid-air.

It might be a bit impolite.

But it reminded him of the Husky his neighbor kept in his previous life.

It often came to his place to scavenge for food and water, and it caught food just like this back then.

"Come, come, time for training."

"Become stronger, and there will be more meat to eat."

Xu Qing began his familiar trickery.

The Three-Colored Venomous Snake could only follow behind Xu Qing with a wary face.

"Poison me!"

"Poison me with all your might!"

...

[Ding, proficiency has reached the requirement]

[Poison Reduction lv1 promoted to Poison Reduction lv2]

Even with the Three-Colored Venomous Snake, it took Xu Qing three days to raise the Poison Reduction skill by one level.

"It seems that this type of skill is quite difficult to level up."

No wonder he hadn't seen any Yao Beasts or humans mastering reduction-type skills for so long.

Those human Cultivators from before also only obtained the Poison Reduction skill for a short time by taking Medicinal Pills.

"Logically speaking, there should be other types of reduction skills."

Xu Qing looked at the System panel.

Reduction-type skills were truly something a snake would covet.

What defensive skills, what Space Barrier.

Defenses may come and go, but reduction is forever.

No matter how powerful a defensive skill is, it's empty and hard to maintain; reduction is more practical.

For example, would there be Spell Reduction?

Or Demonic Technique Reduction, Physical Attack Reduction.

When he mastered all types of reduction in the future and raised them to the maximum level.

All the damage in the world would no longer touch the Green Snake in the slightest.

The Green Snake would be completely invincible in the Cultivation World.

Just thinking about coiling up while a group of Cultivators came at him with knives.

"What are you doing? Haven't you eaten!"

Just thinking about it made the Green Snake's scales stand up one by one with excitement.

So cool he could take flight right then and there.
