Traveling through the world of beasts, making a living

Chapter 119 Teng Snake Clan Privacy

The whole family stayed awake anxiously until dawn, but only the cute baby was still sleeping soundly. Mona gently shook her:

"Cute, wake up, we're going home."

The cute cub rubbed his sleepy eyes and sat up. "Mom, are you ready to go?"

"Yes, I'll hold you, let's go!"

"Let me hold the baby, you be careful!" Bixi took the cute baby, and the three of them stepped out of the room, and Bai Chen came up to meet them.

"Let's go! I don't think something is right. The sooner the better!"

As soon as the four of them reached the river, they met the mountain guard.

"Brother, sorry to bother you. We'll say goodbye to each other now. Take care!" Bai Chen clasped his hands together in greeting. Behind him, Mona immediately pulled out dozens of green crystals from her pocket.

"Yes, big brother, these beast crystals are given to you as payment for letting us stay overnight yesterday!"

"Hurry up and go. I don't need these. Remember not to linger on the road and keep going forward. This place is not as safe as you think."

"Brother, can you tell us where we can get out? We are not familiar with this place at all. We really can't find the exit."

"You don't look like bad people. To tell you the truth, this is actually the secret place of the Teng Snake Clan."

Bixi put Mengmeng down in surprise. Excitedly, she immediately asked, "Brother, you said this is the secret realm of the Teng Snake Clan, is it true?"

"It's true. This is the secret realm of the Vine Snake Clan. Our ancestor isolated it from the outside world. He himself was sealed here when his time was up. I can't get out, but you can come in, which proves that you are also destined to be together. Then, go back the way you came!"

"I'm from the Teng Snake Clan, his descendant. We didn't discover this secret realm before, and it only appeared now because I encountered his barrier while flying. Do you think you don't believe us?"

Bixi explained anxiously, hoping that the mountain guard would believe her.

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I don't want to, and I don't want to believe that there's still a member of the Teng Snake Clan here."

Bai Chen quickly dragged Mona and Mengzi back and said to Bixi:

"Bixi, show him your true form!"

"Brother, take a look! I'll transform into my true form and show you. Then you'll believe me!"

Bixi walked forward and spoke, first transforming from its head into a huge snake head, and then its body slowly transformed into a long emerald green snake body.

"Oh! Yes, he is really from the Teng Snake Clan. It's Teng, it's Teng, a descendant of the Teng Snake."

The mountain guard stuttered with excitement. He really didn't want to believe it, but he had to believe it. The emerald green flying snake in front of him was really not a dream. He rubbed his eyes vigorously and looked again.

"Yes, he is indeed a descendant of the Teng Snake Clan, and he returned to his ancestral home yesterday. Wait and see the wings growing from behind him. Bixi, stretch out your wings and let him see them."

Bixi raised her head straight up, then slowly stretched out her long green wings from behind her, and flew up into the sky with a "whoosh".

The mountain guards below watched all this intently, astonishment beyond words. "You! You! You! You truly are a descendant of the Teng Snake Clan, and one who has successfully reverted to your ancestral form. Hahahaha, God will not abandon me! Then you can go save your ancestors. We can get out now!"

"Bixi, come down quickly, come down quickly. What did you say? Our ancestor?"

"Yes, it's your ancestor. He sealed himself here. I'll take you to see it. You must conceal your scent along the way. All the beasts here have awakened their intelligence and are ferocious. They will look for opportunities to eat you. Just follow me."

When Bai Chen heard what the mountain guard said, he immediately took out the herbs and chewed one each.

Seeing that they were ready, the mountain guard led them left and right, along the long river, and finally arrived at a cave.

"Hey, isn't this the cave we fell into yesterday?"

Mona asked curiously.

"You fell from here yesterday. Didn't you see the ancestor?"

"No, when we came in here, a big rock fell and collapsed the passage, so we chose another passage and came all the way to your side."

The mountain guard walked around the cave in circles and saw a spot of blood on the stone platform. He suddenly understood.

"No wonder, it's the bloodline that's pulling us together. Come on, I'll take you to see the ancestor! Be careful not to step on any traps."

Several people followed the mountain guard closely and finally arrived at the collapsed cave. After digging through rocks one by one, they finally arrived at a large cave.

On the stone platform in the center of the cave, a gigantic python was coiled. It seemed to be sleeping, its body tens of meters long.

"This... this is our ancestor?" Mona said in surprise.

"Yes, this is your ancestor." The mountain keeper's eyes flashed with reverence.

Bixi walked forward and called softly, but the giant python did not respond.

"It seems that the old ancestor's injuries have not healed and he has fallen into a deep coma. We must find a way to wake him up." The mountain guard frowned.

At this time, the cute cub pulled Bixi's clothes and whispered, "Father, I can feel that he is in pain. We must save him."

After some discussion, they decided to find a way to save the python first. They searched for clues in the cave and finally found a picture on a stone wall.

The picture showed five beads, with some strange symbols beside them. "This might be the key to saving our ancestor." Bai Chen observed the pattern carefully.

The cute kid pointed at the beads and said, "Father, we have these beads!"

"Mengzi, are you saying this is a painting of five elements beads?"

Mona asked happily, holding the cute baby's shoulders.

The cute kid smiled and nodded, reaching out to touch the beads on his head. The three of them understood immediately. The beads' hint must be right.

Mona took out the Five Elements Bead and placed it beside the giant python. She waited quietly for a reaction. For a long time, the Five Elements Bead didn't emit any light, leaving everyone puzzled.

"That's not right! This is a painting of a Five Elements Bead, it should react!"

Mona spoke uncertainly, and the mountain guard pointed at the giant python and said, "The ancestor set it up for bloodline traction. You are his descendant, and your blood can come in handy!"

Bixi held the pot and poured it on his head, then cut his wrist with the snake scales. The blood slowly flowed into the giant python's mouth along its dry lips.

After a moment, the giant python's body began to emit a faint light.

Gradually, the light grew brighter and brighter, and the giant python opened its eyes. It looked at everyone with gratitude, then turned into a green light and merged into the body of the tourmaline.

Bixi felt a powerful force surging in his heart, and his strength increased several times in an instant.

"Thank you, my descendants. Mountain Guardian, your new master has appeared. You must follow him until death!" The voice of the giant python sounded in the cave.

"Youngster, you must make good use of the power I give you to revitalize my Teng Snake Clan. I am going to meet the Beast God. Now, I will grant you the Teng Snake inheritance."

After Bixi had digested the inheritance, he said to the mountain guard, "Take us out."

The mountain guard nodded and led them to the exit of the cave. A mysterious light gate appeared before their eyes.

"Go through this door and you will be able to leave the secret realm."

The cute cub ran towards the light gate excitedly, but was bounced back by an invisible force.

"Don't worry, cute kid."

Mona held the cute baby:

"It might require a certain method to open."

"Master, it's the power of blood!" said the mountain guard.

Bixi listened to the mountain keeper's words and carefully observed the light gate, noticing strange patterns on it. He experimented by placing his hand on the patterns and injecting his inner energy. The light gate flickered and gradually opened.

"It seems to be the right way." Bixi said.

The five people walked into the light gate together. After a dizzy spell, they found themselves back in the outside world.

"Finally out!"

Mona sighed. They looked back towards the secret cave, their hearts filled with respect and gratitude.

"This experience is truly amazing," Bai Chen said. "Not only did we find our ancestor, but we also gained powerful strength."

"Yes, but our journey has just begun." Bixi's eyes were firm, "We must protect the Teng Snake Clan and make it flourish."
