Reborn as a Snake: Many Children, Many Blessings, Only I, the Green Snake Immortal

In the center of the magic circle, a slender figure knelt, her snow-white hair swaying gently in the water. She had a graceful figure, her clothes were tattered, and her skin, as smooth as cream, could be vaguely seen underneath.

She was a white-haired woman who looked like a human.

To be precise... she was a white-haired woman with two small deer antlers on her head!

Two golden chains pierced through the collarbone, the chains stained with blood, constantly rubbing against the jade-like bones within the flesh as they swayed.

The white-haired woman stood at the foot of an array diagram, with her in the center of the diagram, and vital energy constantly flowing from her body.

She is still alive.

But it wasn't her that made Xu Qing feel a sense of crisis.

Xu Qing suddenly swung its tail, and a terrifying force erupted from the bottom of the water, causing a visible ripple to spread outwards.

boom!

A dull rumble resounded.

A shadowy figure in the darkness, like a ghost, dodges swiftly with incredible speed.

Xu Qing turned around, a glint of light flashing in her golden eyes.

Not far behind, a man with a face covered in lividity and a neck that was mostly broken off stared at Xu Qing with a pair of lifeless eyes.

He exuded a ghostly aura and was clearly not a living being.

"Ghost cultivator?"

Xu Qing's eyes flickered as she sized up the guy who was trying to ambush her.

The opponent was very strong, and the sense of oppression he felt was much stronger than that of the Monkey King and the corpses of Chizhenzi.

"With two thousand years of cultivation, you dare to trespass into my master's magic array? You're truly courting death!"

The sound came from the ghost cultivator's severed neck.

The voice was icy, and a murderous intent locked onto Xu Qing.

"Perfect, I'm missing the life soul of a great demon!"

The voice just fell.

A series of piercing and venomous shrieks rang out.

Nearly a hundred ghostly figures appeared, carrying a sinister aura, and rushed towards Xu Qing from all directions.

Hearing the noise, the woman inside the magic circle raised her head slightly and her eyes lit up when she saw Xu Qing.

But then, noticing the ghostly figures, the light in his eyes dimmed again.

A long time ago, the ghost cultivator advanced to the fifth rank, his strength equivalent to that of a great demon with more than three thousand years of cultivation.

The green snake that broke into this place only has two thousand years of cultivation; the difference in strength is too great.

In particular, the methods of that ghost cultivator are insidious and vicious; ordinary cultivators are no match for him.

The woman lost all hope and lowered her head again.

Xu Qing had been using his spiritual eyes, so he could naturally see the ghost's strength.

However, when he saw the ghost cultivator's methods, his sense of crisis vanished instantly.

Silently recite mantras and spells in your heart.

Just as those ghostly figures were about to pounce on him.

A glimmer of dark light appeared in the golden vertical pupil.

A profound and mysterious power suddenly descended upon this deep, dark seabed.

In an instant.

Hundreds of ghostly figures were unable to move.

The ghost cultivator's body trembled, and black blood flowed from the hideous wound on his neck.

It felt it had lost control of the ghostly figures!

A nameless sense of panic welled up in its heart.

Those ghostly figures are its life-bound treasures, refined over hundreds of years, and are of utmost importance to it.

It is the main source of its combat power!

Large amounts of black blood flowed from its neck as it used a secret technique to try and control the ghostly figures to continue the attack.

however.

Just now.

Xu Qing opened his blood-red maw, and hundreds of soul-fixing needles shrouded in black mist suddenly appeared in front of the ghostly figures.

"A soul-stabilizing needle! How did you come to have such a thing?!"

The ghost cultivator's face was contorted, patches of corpse spots were squeezed together, and his lifeless eyes were suddenly filled with horror and shock!

Hearing the ghost cultivator's scream, the woman in the magic circle raised her head, a glimmer of hope shining deep in her beautiful eyes.

A great panic arose in the ghost cultivator's heart.

But it was too late.

The Soul-Stabilizing Needle transformed into a streak of dark light, instantly piercing through hundreds of ghostly figures.

"Bang!"

The muffled thuds continued one after another.

The ghostly figures were pierced by the Soul-Stabilizing Needle and dissipated into ghostly energy.

"puff!"

Black blood gushed from his neck, and the ghost cultivator's head almost snapped off.

It turned to run, but was met with a pair of golden vertical pupils.

"Spare me..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

"boom!"

Flames appeared in the water, and the intense heat briefly created a vacuum space underwater.

The ghost cultivator was engulfed in flames, screaming and struggling desperately.

One after another, soul-stabilizing needles flew over and pierced his body, suppressing the magical power within him.

Immobilized by the Soul-Fixing Needle, the ghost cultivator's strength plummeted, making him even less able to resist the scorching flames.

After a while.

The screams abruptly stopped.

The ghost cultivator vanished without a trace, his body and soul extinguished.

He was originally a ghost, and now that he's dead, his soul has been completely scattered.

Actually, he is very strong.

But Xu Qing's methods were too effective at restraining him!

With the Earthly Fiend Divine Power capturing and imprisoning ghosts, and with the assistance of the Soul-Fixing Needle from the ancient Qi Refining Master, all his skills were completely ineffective!

If Xu Qing didn't know the Soul-Capturing Technique, or didn't have the Soul-Fixing Needle, he wouldn't be a match for him.

But reality doesn't offer "what ifs".

A ghost who had cultivated for many years died a pathetic death.

Xu Qing only withdrew his supernatural powers after confirming that the other party was dead.

at the same time.

Then, strands of golden light of merit descended and blessed him.

Ghost cultivators plunder living souls to refine spells and supernatural powers, interfering with the cycle of reincarnation. Killing them will also bring some merit.

After dealing with this matter.

Xu Qing turned around and slowly passed through the intertwined chains to the front of the magic circle.

The woman with deer antlers on her head raised her head, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.

She looked at Xu Qing with eyes full of emotion and managed to say, "Save...me!"

Xu Qing wasn't in a hurry to make a move. Since the other party's identity was unknown, it was better to find out more clearly.

"Who are you? Where did you come from? Why are you imprisoned here?"

When it comes to the top three ranks of the demon realm, it's always good to be cautious.

The woman with a pair of small deer antlers forced herself to remain calm and answered Xu Qing's question word by word.

After a while.

Xu Qing figured out the identity of the woman in front of him.

The woman's name was Bai Ling. She came from the demon realm. Her father was a dragon with tens of thousands of years of cultivation, and her mother was a carp spirit.

Because of her impure bloodline, she was not well-liked. One day, while she was out for a walk, she was kidnapped by the master of the Purple Canopy Cave.

Imprisoned here, her blood essence and soul are refined using a magic array. The dragon's soul is used to activate the array, transforming the yin and evil energy and transmitting it to the bronze coffin to help Chi Zhenzi's corpse transformation.

"The reason I've been able to persevere for so many years is because of a rare treasure left to me by my mother, which can protect my soul; otherwise, I would have turned into withered bones long ago."

Bai Ling was very weak; she had already expended a lot of energy just explaining.

She was originally quite powerful, with over six thousand years of cultivation.

However, her years of confinement have greatly diminished her strength, and she could probably be killed by any monkey demon in the Flower Fruit Forest.

After Bai Ling finished speaking, seeing that Xu Qing did not react, she hurriedly spoke up.

"If you can rescue me, I can give you my cave in the demon realm; it's full of wonderful things!"

Xu Qing was not tempted by these conditions.

The Chizhenzi token in his hand contained treasures that Bai Ling couldn't match even if she offered a hundred cave dwellings.

In his view, the most valuable thing was not the treasure promised by Bai Ling.

So he shook his head.

A hint of despair flickered in Bai Ling's eyes as she continued, "If all else fails, I'll give you the soul-protecting treasure my mother left me, if you just want to rescue me."

"There's no need for that. You can just repay me with your body."

Xu Qing said in a serious tone, "It's perfectly reasonable to repay a life-saving debt with one's body, isn't it?"

"What!?"

Bai Ling was taken aback upon hearing this, and then a blush appeared on her cheeks.
