Chapter 127: Chapter 125: Kill a Few More
Xiaohei meant that there was also the presence of snakes ahead, and it seemed there were many snake-type desolate beasts nearby, and they could go look for more.
After pondering for a moment, Xiang Beifei said, "Okay, let's go check it out!"
He felt his energy was still quite robust. For some reason, although he had fought with a giant black snake, he wasn't tired at all. His spiritual power even quickly replenished itself.
Turning to look at his shoulder, where he had been burned in the exchange with the black snake, he noticed that a surge of spiritual power not his own had emerged and rapidly healed his wound.
"This spiritual power?"
Xiang Beifei was somewhat puzzled, then suddenly remembered that he had eaten some of Luo Laotou's sunflower seeds today.
Could those seeds not only replenish spiritual power but also heal injuries?
Luo Laotou had been so polite in offering him to eat those seeds, and it turned out there were benefits after all.
He got up and ran in the direction Xiaohei had indicated, carefully avoiding other desolate beasts along the way. He even accidentally stepped on and killed a centipede the size of a chopstick. The blood of the centipede splashed onto his pants, corroding a hole in the fabric. Luckily, this centipede wasn't strong, but with so many desolate beasts around, he had to be cautious.
About ten minutes of running later, following Xiaohei's guidance, he pushed through a thicket of thorny bushes and quickly saw a large snake as long as a carrying pole lying in a ditch. The snake was completely white, but uniquely, there were three red ring-like patterns encircling its neck.
Three rings!
It matched the "three" in "Three Souls."
Xiang Beifei looked at the giant black snake with three horns in the small bubble and then at the white snake with three red rings around its neck and fell into contemplation.
"Could this also be the Three Souls Desolate Snake?"
"Learn by Analogy" couldn't help him confirm what the Three Souls Desolate Snake was precisely; without an illustrated handbook, he didn't know if the one he killed was the right one.
The three horns might be the Three Souls Desolate Snake, and so could the three rings.
Chin in hand, Xiang Beifei thought for a moment and said, "Why not kill both? Since we don't recognize it, just kill a few more and take them back for them to choose. One of them must be what they want."
Yuchi Shen had always been looking for a reason to find fault with him. If he didn't bring back the Three Souls Desolate Snake, who knew how his strange face would twist with smugness.
"Woof woof woof!"
Xiaohei leaped onto Xiang Beifei's shoulder, seemingly in full agreement. Killing desolate beasts and obtaining Beast Pills sounded good.
Hiss, hiss, hiss!
The Three Souls Desolate Snake had been napping in the water after just swallowing a ferocious man-eating mud loach and was digesting it when it suddenly raised its head to see a massive fist, ablaze with flames, smashing down towards it.

The elite students at the training ground were all looking around. Today was supposed to be about observing the performance of the N-level newcomers during their entrance examination, but the training ground's big screen was instead showing Guo Han and Sun Rui!
It was hard to say whether it was these two being assessed at the moment or if it was the N-level newcomer.
Guo Han and Sun Rui had no idea which direction Xiang Beifei had gone off to since everyone had a system, and anything could happen. But considering that Xiang Beifei was only an N-level Awakener, even with some system trick, he probably couldn't have gone too far.
However, the wilderness beyond the domain was vast, and Xiang Beifei could have gone in any direction. Searching so aimlessly was undoubtedly like finding a needle in a haystack. But with the little iron ball following them, they were both very aware that this amounted to a live broadcast of the "Searching for Xiang Beifei Operation," watched by many teachers and classmates. They couldn't complain and had to press on with the search.
Most importantly, they could not shout. Because if they called out Xiang Beifei's name, what might emerge was not necessarily Xiang Beifei but possibly various weird and vicious desolate beasts!
"How are we supposed to find that freshman?" Guo Han quietly asked.

Sun Rui glanced up at the iron ball above and whispered, "We have to find him, whether or not we can! We failed to protect the new egg earlier, and we're definitely going to get scolded by Elder Yuchi. If we don't find him, do you dare to go back?"
"It was he who said not to intervene until the last moment."
Guo Han kicked a stone on the ground in frustration and muttered. After a moment, he added, "The wilderness outside the domain is so dangerous, and this area is particularly infested with snake-type desolate beasts. These desolate snakes are 'terrors even to ghosts' and have eaten who knows how many people. Having left our protection, the newbie might have already become snake food by now."
"Stop complaining; even if he's been eaten, we still have to find his bones or hair, or even a piece of his clothing would suffice to report back."
Although the two were quietly complaining, neither dared to speak too loudly. They climbed the small hill where the Ghost Giant Snail had lurked, looked around, and then walked down.
But at that moment, there was a sudden outbreak of angry roars around them, and from the nearby woods, countless tentacles surged out.
"Damn it, it's that group of Claw-tailed Monkeys from before!"
Guo Han's complexion changed slightly, and he exclaimed in a low voice.
Eager to move because of the Ghost Giant Snail's presence, the monkey group had lingered nearby. But when they quickly realized the snail had been eliminated, and Guo Han and Sun Rui reappeared here, they set their sights on the two men.
"Don't panic; the venom from the Iron Flying Hawk will make them lose their fighting strength."
Sun Rui was relatively calm; they were well-prepared after all, with all sorts of high-tech gear for dealing with desolate beasts in their backpacks. This was a low-risk area of the wilderness beyond the domain, and those high-tech devices were very effective.
