Returning To The Cultivation World Through A Game

Chapter 57 - Deal

Qin Tian immediately smiled as he felt his body recover. Luckily he was moving very fast, if the snake venom was left in his body for at least 10 minutes, he could have fallen paralyzed.

He then looked at the silver snake. After his blood essence was extracted, the snake's aura weakened extremely rapidly.

The essence of blood is very important for the body of every living being. It was because every blood essence stored a large amount of energy. Usually people would use energy from blood essence as backup energy when they ran out of energy in the middle of a battle.

And of course, the side effects of losing blood essence were even more severe than being depleted of energy. Not only did the body become very weak, it could even cause some problems with their cultivation.

The silver snake's cultivation was still very weak, and losing a drop of blood essence was enough to drain more than half of its strength.

With the Primordial Heavenly Needle, Qin Tian would walk in reverse if he still couldn't beat the silver snake.

However, even now the silver snake still looked confused when it saw how he was holding the needle between his fingers.

The snake seemed to be wondering why a god he didn't even dare to approach would suddenly be wielded by a human.

The problem is; The needle had even stopped emitting light ever since Qin Tian held it. Of course, it was Qin Tian who made the needle stop emitting light. But the snake didn't know that.

"Tsk, looks like this snake's intelligence is only slightly more mature than that of a baby." Qin Tian said to himself.

"But that's even better, that way, I don't have to kill it."

With that needle, Qin Tian could easily kill the snake if he wanted to. But he also felt very unfortunate if that spiritual monster was killed. It is probably the only spiritual monster on earth, and if the earth changes one day, it will become the first spiritual monster. If he could control the snake, that would be much better.

Besides, that snake was obviously quite unique in that it could integrate with the power of the Primordial Heavenly Needle. There were four snakes there before, but only the silver snake made it.

If the snake is properly cared for, there is a chance that it will become a divine beast one day.

"Do you want to know why?" Qin Tian started talking to the snake.

He raised his hand which was playing the needle between his fingers.

'....'

"Huh." Qin Tian exhaled. "Actually this is not a god, but an object. And this object is mine." Qin Tian started explaining.

Qin Tian could have tricked the snake with some boasting, but he chose not to because he seriously wanted to take care of it.

In addition, spiritual monsters will become more intelligent in no time. It was only a matter of time before the snake realized the truth. Telling it now to increase its trust in him in the future was clearly the best thing he could do.

The real world was not like the world of novels Qin Tian had ever read.

In the novel world, with a simple spiritual imprint, one could make another person completely a slave, but that was impossible in the real world. There is no history in which the universe has established such rules.

Of course, it was possible to make other people slaves, but that could only be done with absolute power. For example an emperor of matchless strength could easily bind the soul of a Paragon. But that also can't last forever. Time will make everything disappear, even the power of an emperor.

Even an emperor's carefully crafted imperial weapons needed maintenance with a lot of resources in order for them to continue to unleash their power.

...

However, upon hearing Qin Tian's words, the snake's expression changed so drastically that even an ordinary human could see the change in its expression.

"What are you saying? Little creature, how dare you deceive me. Quickly you return my god." The snake shouted angrily.

The snake might have started to doubt its beliefs, but no matter how much one doubted their god, it was still very difficult to completely abandon it.

After which, the snake once again charged towards Qin Tian.

"..." Qin Tian

"Huh. Looks like you do need a little lesson!" Qin Tian could only shake his head in the end.

As the snake moved towards him, he once again threw the needle up. Even though the energy within the needle was only a little bit left, they were still used enough to unleash several techniques.

After he threw the needle, it suddenly emitted light once again, and the light then formed thousands of needle shadows.

Whooss... Whooss... Whooss...

The needle shadows then flew towards the snake. Their speed was still lightning fast, the snake had only moved an inch but they had already reached the snake's body.

Shua... Shua... Shua...

They immediately pierced the snake's body, and in an instant, the snake's massive body spurted out a large amount of blood.

Hisssssss....

The snake hissed loudly as its body spat out blood. Its head which was held high almost fell to the ground because of that.

"You're not my opponent, stop fighting." Said Qin Tian.

The snake looked at Qin Tian with an astonished expression, but the snake's face had already started to show fear. "You, who exactly are you, how could my god attack me?"

"...."

"Didn't I say, this needle is just an object, and since it is mine, I can naturally use it to attack whomever I want." Qin Tian replied.

"Is it true?" Asked the snake with a doubtful expression.

"If I lied I might say that I am the god of this needle."

"Now I give you two choices, whether you want to stay in this place, or go follow me. As long as you call me master, you can continue to stay near this needle so you can continue to grow strong." Said Qin Tian with a faint smile.

Now, it was only a matter of words before the snake bowed to him.

But even though he thought that way, it turned out that it took almost an hour before the snake began to consider his words.

"Fine, I agree to follow you, but I will not call you master." That is the limit that the snake can accept.

"Alright." Qin Tian nodded. Even though Qin Tian felt less than satisfied, he still agreed to the snake's request in the end. Everything takes time and he can't make everything the way he wants it.

"But when I have business, you have to help out."

"Deal..." replied the snake.

After that, the snake's body shrank very quickly. A moment later, its body turned into the size of a needle. Now the snake looks like a caterpillar.

The snake then jumped onto Qin Tian's palm. There, too, was the needle.

But unlike before, the snake was no longer afraid to approach the needle.

"You can stay beside that needle so you grow faster." Said Qin Tian.
