Chapter 422 - 422 421 Ouroboros Snake
Chapter 422: Chapter 421: Ouroboros Snake Chapter 422: Chapter 421: Ouroboros Snake At first, there was nothing in the Gloomy Dreamland, not a sliver of light to be seen, but after Russell mounted the Little Dream Dragon,
the light of magic power erupted.
Now, accompanied by a roar from the Little Dream Dragon, the sound of magic power also blossomed.
Immediately, Russell rode the Little Dream Dragon straight towards the direction of the Fir Parasitic Cordyceps, and upon arriving at the branches, he could hear the magic sound emitted by the Fir Parasitic Cordyceps, a very faint sound, like the rustling of leaves.
Then,
Russell listened intently and soon heard another sound, like the hiss of a snake flicking its tongue.
Following the sound, right near Russell’s encampment, it came from beneath the roots of a Snow Fir Tree.
Upon closely examining the shadowy outlines that formed the tree roots, one could discover a tree hole about the size of a bucket.
“So, this Phantom Beast is hiding in the tree hole, that’s why I cannot see its magic light?” Russell suddenly realized.
He then laughed heartily, “Let’s go, Ice Cream, we’re going in!”
In their Primordial Spirit form, both the Little Dream Dragon and Russell were small and easily flew into the tree hole, then after twisting and turning inside it and descending about three to four meters underground, they finally saw the magic light at the end of the passage.
It was a serpent-like Phantom Beast coiled into a serpentine loop.
The light of magic power outlined the patterns on its scales, and its size was similar to the King of Ebony-waisted Snakes contracted by Mr. Luo Man, an ordinary snake with the thickness of an arm, not one of the enormous pythons.
Strangely, this serpent-like Phantom Beast that slept at night was biting its own tail in its dream.
“Hiss, hiss…”
The sound of magic power radiated continuously from its body, truly as if a snake were flicking its tongue.
“Ga?” The Little Dream Dragon sniffed with its nose and then, as if discovering something, its eyes lit up suddenly, “Ga!”
“What?”
The Little Dream Dragon couldn’t speak, but its gesticulations made it easy for Russell to understand: “You like this Phantom Beast… not like, you look down on all Phantom Beasts… you mean, your feeling towards it is the same as towards Polly?”
“Gaga!” The Little Dream Dragon nodded repeatedly.
This caused Russell’s eyebrows to rise: “The same as Polly, which means that this Phantom Beast’s talent is related to the Gloomy Dreamland!”
Out of all Phantom Beasts, undoubtedly, only Unicorn Polly was highly regarded by the Little Dream Dragon.
The reason for the regard was Polly’s talent for Wraithwalk. Her Primordial Spirit had been pulled into the Gloomy Dreamland and could even wield the Dreamy Unicorn Horn to pierce the barrier between the dream and reality, thereby drawing magic creations from reality.
Other Phantom Beasts, like the Pseudo-Harpy Dragon Hape contracted by Russell, even being a descendant of the Phantom Beast Pseudo-Dragon lineage, still failed to earn a second glance from the Little Dream Dragon.
It was clear that the Little Dream Dragon was quite a practical giant dragon, favoring those that could be of help to it.
“This… Ouroboros Snake, has caught your eye, Ice Cream, and evidently, it will soon become our companion,” Russell immediately pledged, “Don’t worry, give me a few days and you’ll see how I’ll capture it!”
“Ga!”
“Let’s go, I’ve made note of this place. We’ll come back tomorrow to subdue it,” Russell said as he gestured with his hand, “It’s a pity that there’s no other sound of magic power, and no fairies to be found… Let’s wander around the Heibo Mountains and look for traces of Snow Giant Da.”
They
“Is that so?”
“That’s right, as a Phantom Beast, we are much more cautious about everything around us than humans are.” Polly said with a laugh, “I can sympathize with the Ouroboros Snake. Since it wants you to touch its tail, sooner or later, it will accept you.”
“Alright, I’ll go with your advice,” Russell agreed, pliable.
He no longer rushed to see the Ouroboros Snake and also shelved the idea of digging a hole to catch it alive.
The Ouroboros Snake, with its talent related to Quiet Dreamland, was undoubtedly an excellent candidate for a contract.
So, in order for their future cultivation to go smoothly and to avoid any emotional barriers, it was best to win its heart first.
Only when the Ouroboros Snake proved to be intractable should he consider digging a hole to capture it alive.
