Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique-Chapter 1368 - 4: Evil Snake

This was an Evil Snake with three eyes. This snake was terrifying, moving forward in the darkness, and even the Skeleton Giant Lizard was unwilling to be its enemy.

Everywhere were Fierce Beasts roaming; this was the Exile World, a frightening and cold night.

These Fierce Beasts especially liked to eat humans.

In fact, there was a reason for their fondness of human flesh.

Other Fierce Beasts often had hard scales and thick animal hides.

Moreover, they were strong, and whether they could be killed after a fierce battle was another matter. Even if killed, breaking through their scales and hide required effort.

Many Fierce Beasts were too lazy to even break open their prey’s scales and hides and would eat the bodies, resulting in a less desirable taste.

And humans? Weak in strength, without scales or hides, with tender flesh, making for an excellent taste.

Therefore, many Fierce Beasts, like the Yin Beast, Skeleton Giant Lizard, and Evil Snake, loved to hunt humans as food.

And now, the Evil Snake that appeared was no exception, equally fond of hunting humans.

The Evil Snake sensed the presence of human aura deep within this valley.

Flicking its Snake Core, it slithered its massive body across the ground, quickly entering the valley.

Its sinister eyes gazed at a large cave within the valley.

The Evil Snake rushed directly into the cave.

"Ah..." A piercing scream echoed. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Something’s coming in!" Xiaoshen screamed in terror.

Ying’er’s body trembled violently.

Three years ago, their parents were similarly devoured by a Yin Beast that stormed into the cave.

That time, the villagers quickly drove away the Yin Beast, and only then did the siblings narrowly escape.

"It’s the Evil Snake..." A panicked voice soon rang out.

The Evil Snake, terrifying as it was, surged into the cave, continuously devouring villagers hiding inside.

But no one could resist the Evil Snake; ordinary Yin Beasts were far weaker in comparison.

Furthermore, even ordinary Yin Beasts were difficult for these common folk to contend with, let alone a terrifying presence like the Evil Snake.

Suddenly, an icy aura spread, as a gigantic serpent’s head appeared outside the cave.

"Sister, the Evil Snake..." Xiaoshen cried out in fear.

Ying’er turned pale with fear, her entire body shaking.

"Roar..."

The Evil Snake opened its bloody maw, ready to swallow Lin Feng, Ying’er, and Xiaoshen inside the cave.

Danger loomed, Lin Feng leapt up, arriving beneath the serpent’s head, and punched its jaw.

Bang!

With a forceful, heavy strike, Lin Feng punched the underjaw of the Evil Snake, causing its head to collide harshly against the rock wall.

The Evil Snake let out a cry of agony, then rammed its head toward Lin Feng.

The cave was narrow, making it difficult for the massive head of the Evil Snake to maneuver. Lin Feng quickly dodged its attack, then jumped onto the serpent’s head, striking its third eye with another punch.

Bang!

The punch landed with great force.

The Evil Snake’s third eye was cracked, blood flowing out, causing it to emit a painful screech, its head swinging violently, flinging Lin Feng away.

Clang!

Lin Feng’s body hit the rock wall, the immense impact feeling like his insides were on fire.

However, the Evil Snake didn’t continue its attack on Lin Feng. The space was too narrow, and the snake had gained some Spiritual awareness.

Knowing that fighting this human here was disadvantageous, the Evil Snake glared venomously at Lin Feng before retreating its massive body.

"Big Brother, are you alright?" Xiaoshen got up and ran to Lin Feng’s side.

He could hardly believe he had survived.

That was a monster more powerful than the Yin Beast.

Yet it was driven away by the "Big Brother" he had brought back.

Ying’er was also astonished, quickly rising and joining Xiaoshen to check on Lin Feng with concern.

Lin Feng shook his head, indicating he was fine.

Yet inside, he felt quite helpless.

If he had Mana, he could have killed the Evil Snake easily.

But now, with his Mana suppressed, unable to perform Divine Skills, he could only fight the Fierce Beasts with his physical body.

Killing these tough-skinned Fierce Beasts was truly not an easy task.

"If only I had a weapon, it would be better. But unfortunately, this world cuts off my connection with the storage ring, and I can’t retrieve any treasures from it," Lin Feng sighed inwardly.

Crying could be heard throughout the cave. The appearance of the Evil Snake had caused the village to lose over forty lives.

The village chief came to Lin Feng.

Because Lin Feng drove away the Evil Snake, they were very grateful to him.

If it weren’t for Lin Feng, the entire village of over a thousand people might have become the snake’s food.

Lin Feng motioned for them not to be polite.

Subsequently, no one felt like sleeping, perhaps due to having witnessed so much death.

When dawn came, the atmosphere of sorrow had already faded away.

No matter how difficult life was, it had to continue.

Perhaps in gratitude for Lin Feng’s act of repelling the Evil Snake.

In the morning, Lin Feng was invited to have breakfast with the village’s hunter team.

The hunter team was crucial to the village’s survival.

They were the foundation of the village’s existence, setting traps to capture small beasts.

But capturing small beasts was extremely challenging in the Exile World, where beasts were exceedingly rare, and they could go long periods without catching anything.

If they did catch something, the village was reluctant to eat it, opting instead to trade the hide and meat for grain in town.

In reality, at the start of each month, every household received a portion of grain, but the amount was pitifully small. With over a thousand people, sustaining the village was utterly challenging.

The remaining grain had to be self-sufficient, which was why Ying’er, Xiaoshen, and others sought Fire Pattern Stones. The grain allocated by the village was insufficient to last a month, hardly even half a month. Without searching for Fire Pattern Stones to exchange for taro, they would starve to death.

Even the food the hunters ate was simple—coarse grains and taro mixed into a kind of bread, with each hunter receiving two pieces and a bowl of vegetable soup with a few leaves floating in it.

Yet even such meals were enviable to others.

Lin Feng received four pieces of bread, and the village chief had someone cut a piece of meat, stewing it with wild vegetables to make broth for Lin Feng, a treatment even the other hunters didn’t get. The aroma of the meat broth wafted out, attracting many people who all eagerly eyed the bowl, swallowing their saliva.

To them, meat broth might just be the most delicious food in the world.

In a year, they had only the chance to drink broth once, at year’s end, and if lucky, perhaps eat a piece of meat.

Lin Feng gazed at the four pieces of bread and meat soup before him, lost in thought, seeing villagers in the distance hungrily watching the soup in his bowl, his mood heavy. Such food, back on the Heavenly Martial Continent, wouldn’t even be glanced at by the average person. Yet here, it was the most delicious food.
