"Master, look—" Qian Duoduo pointed at the blood on the Ming Iron hook and shouted into the Golden Toad.
Liu Boli floated out, saw Qian Duoduo had hung up another cooked spirit chicken egg, and lowered his long whip.
As soon as the long whip was put down, it immediately trembled visibly.
"It's here!"
Qian Duoduo yanked it up—the long whip felt heavy, so he must have caught something.
He quickly pulled up the long whip, and on the Ming Iron hook hung a Cold Flame Snake over three meters long.
When the snake saw Qian Duoduo, its eyes immediately widened, and ignoring the Ming Iron hook still stuck in its throat, it opened its mouth and spat a stream of cold fire at Qian Duoduo.
This high-level battle beast didn't put Qian Duoduo, a Cultivator who had just reached Foundation Establishment, in its eyes.
"Oh no! You dare to mess with me!"
Qian Duoduo activated the Golden Light Technique, and a copper coin appeared at the Cold Flame Snake's vital spot, pinning it firmly against the stone wall.
"Woah!"
The snake's tail swept over, but Qian Duoduo grabbed it, and no matter how much it struggled, it was useless.
The Cold Flame Snake's voice came through Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Awareness: "Let me go, or our King will not spare you."
The Cold Flame Snake's body was powerful, similar to a Body Refining Cultivator, but its Spiritual Awareness was relatively weak.
Compared to it, Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Awareness, refined by The Righteous Foundation Establishment, was dozens of times stronger.
With its vital spot controlled, Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Awareness easily entered its mind.
"If I dare to catch you, I'm not afraid of your King."
Qian Duoduo concentrated his Spiritual Awareness, suspending it like a towering mountain over the Cold Flame Snake's Spiritual Awareness, which was as small as a stone table.
If Qian Duoduo wished, by attacking the Cold Flame Snake with his Spiritual Awareness, the Cold Flame Snake would instantly turn into a foolish snake.
The Cold Flame Snake endured for a while but couldn't bear the pressure, and its entire body went limp.
Seeing it yield, Qian Duoduo withdrew his deterrence and asked with his Spiritual Awareness, "Tell me about your King, how powerful is it?"
"Our King!" The Cold Flame Snake's head lifted again.
"It's similar to your Yuanying Perfected cultivator."
"How many like you are there below?"
"Innumerable!"
Qian Duoduo looked at the Cold Flame Snake's proud eyes and wasn't sure whether to believe it, only feeling that the possibility of it lying was small.
Liu Boli, from the side, commanded the Cold Flame Snake with his Spiritual Awareness.
"Don't resist; I want to see your world."
The Cold Flame Snake was about to say something else, but when Liu Boli's Spiritual Awareness, which was even stronger than Qian Duoduo's, entered, it fainted directly.
Qian Duoduo and Liu Boli, within its Spiritual Awareness, saw a vast, white underground world.
At the bottom of the cave, dark and cold Ice Gale drifted, and on the ground lived tens of thousands of Cold Flame Snakes.
Their food was a type of spirit moss that grew in the rock crevices.
This spirit moss grew extremely slowly and tasted bitter.
These Cold Flame Snakes lived such a bitter life!
After seeing the Cold Flame Snake's Spiritual Awareness, this thought immediately appeared in Qian Duoduo's mind.
"These Cold Flame Snakes aren't wild."
Liu Boli told Qian Duoduo with his Spiritual Awareness.
"They are confined to fixed locations. What these places are, we need to go down to see."
"Now that we've confirmed there are Cold Flame Snakes below, should we go down?"
Seeing tens of thousands of Cold Flame Snakes, Qian Duoduo's heart had long been stirred.
"Good. A Nascent Soul Great Perfection, you can barely handle it."
Liu Boli rolled his eyes at Qian Duoduo.
Earlier, he advised Qian Duoduo not to go down, reasoning that he didn't know if there were any Cold Flame Snakes. Now that he knew there were, he naturally couldn't object anymore.
Qian Duoduo grinned, knowing he was teasing him.
"The Nascent Soul Great Perfection is for his Master to deal with, not for him to deal with."
He set up about ten Formations at the cave entrance, some to stabilize the entrance, others to block sound, and then placed about ten Xuanshi Puppets at the entrance, with instructions to prevent others from entering.
Fixing the long whip to the stone wall, Qian Duoduo gripped the whip with his left hand and slid down into the cave little by little along the whip's body.
Just as he entered the Ice Gale, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but shiver.
