Following his arrival, countless small animals by the stream hurriedly jumped away. It was obvious that Bai Chuan was an extremely terrifying predator in their eyes. It was the truth. As the King Cobra, excluding a few natural enemies, a few creatures that could compare to him or be stronger than him, he was invincible.

Seriously, am I that scary?

Looking at the small animals fleeing in panic, Bai Chuan, who had no intention of hurting them, could not help but laugh and shake his snake head. As they left, the world in his eyes fell silent again, becoming lifeless, save for the gurgling of the stream.

Perhaps this was the price of being a king? After laughing at himself, Bai Chuan calmly drank his water before leaving again.

The three-meter-long snake slithered in an S-shape. His scales were layered and twisted, bringing about an indescribable smooth beauty. His tongue kept flicking, searching for the aura of his prey, other snakes.

Soon, he stopped and propped up his upper body to look left and right. Then, he climbed up a tall tree trunk. This place was filled with tall and dense forests. As long as he was careful to hide his tracks, he could easily hide on the branches and wait for other snakes to appear.

According to the techniques in his memory, Bai Chuan quickly found an excellent position and quietly coiled around the tree branch, waiting for the prey.

Time passed slowly.

During this time, he saw a green vine snake trying to eat a bird egg, but it was eaten by the returning rhinoceros as a spicy strip. However, he did not move. That was because the snake was too small. To be honest, if he fought the rhinoceros head-on now, there was a high chance that they would die together. It was not worth it.

In this cruel world where the strong preyed on the weak, being injured meant that one’s survival was unstable. Once one encountered an inflamed wound or when it rained continuously, without a source of food, it was no different from death.

Suddenly, Bai Chuan’s spirit was shaken. His snake head slightly raised, and his snake tongue quickly spat out and captured various scent molecules. His prey had appeared.

A two-meter-long snake with yellow scales had appeared in the distance below.

Seeing this, Bai Chuan immediately recognized that it was a brocade snake. Of course, he did not know its exact name. In the end, they were all his spicy strips.

He raised his head slightly and stretched his snake body again. He looked at the brocade snake. He could not move recklessly at this moment in case he was discovered. At this distance, he probably could not catch up.

At this moment, below.

Amidst the fallen leaves, the brocade snake kept flicking its tongue as it moved forward with a purpose. Its body moved with an incomparably light sizzling sound. It was the sound of its weight pressing down on the fallen leaves.

It was very faint, and it was even less obvious amidst the wind. Soon, it was close. What greeted its eyes was a rat hiding in the pile of fallen leaves and eating a plant fruit.

The snake’s body was constantly approaching. At this moment, it was already getting closer and closer to the brocade snake’s attack range. However, the rat had yet to discover it. Perhaps it could not bear to give up on the fruit?

At the same time, Bai Chuan also got off the branch and followed closely behind the brocade snake. This made him suddenly feel like a mantis stalking a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. He just didn’t know if there was a hunter behind him.

In the next moment, accompanied by a whooshing sound, the rat’s scream sounded, especially abrupt in this quiet forest.

Seeing this, Bai Chuan crawled over calmly, ignoring the brocade snake that was releasing its prey from its mouth and retreating vigilantly.

As for why?

Of course, it was because this brocade snake was already dead in his eyes.

It was the truth. Snakes did not crawl fast, and as a king cobra, he was not a snake that was famous for waiting for an ambush.

His hunt took a grand and imposing path. He appeared in front of his prey openly. No matter how vigilant his prey was, he did not take it seriously. It was as if he was telling it, “I’m definitely going to eat you! Even Jesus can’t keep you!”

To him, what he needed to do was to distinguish whether the prey was poisonous or not. Then, he would bite the prey tightly and not let go. He would inject a large dose of poison and wait for the prey to die.

In any case, among the venomous snakes, those who were bigger than him were not as poisonous as him. In addition, his poison resistance was high, so most poisons were useless against him.

He was the perfect creature among snakes! There was no need for any fancy attacks. He only needed to bite and inject!

In the next moment, his upper body was propped up. Then, he gathered his strength and stretched forward. He swooped down at lightning speed and bit the body of the brocade snake. The sharp fangs easily bit through the yellowish scales and pierced deep into the muscles. Then… inject!

The golden mixed poison was quickly injected into the body of the brocade snake. Moreover, for the sake of conservation, Bai Chuan chose to inject 300 milligrams of poison.

The brocade snake looked blankly at Bai Chuan, who ignored its warning and bit its body. Then, a sharp pain and a warm current surged into its body, making it subconsciously open its mouth. It didn’t understand what was going on and watched everything in a daze.

One minute… two minutes…

Finally, the poison began to take effect.

An incomparably intense pain mixed with an intense suffocating feeling assaulted the brocade snake’s heart. At this moment, it finally understood what had happened to it. It was going to die! At this moment, it finally knew how to resist. It let out a weak hissing sound from its mouth and stretched out to bite Bai Chuan’s neck.

But was it useful? No!

He was the snake king among poisonous snakes! How could a mere brocade snake bite through the hardness of his scales? If he was really such a weak King Cobra, he wouldn’t be so famous.

As the saying went, there was no falsehood in fame. Soon, the brocade snake lay on the ground weakly. The pain caused by its heart, the increasingly congealed blood, and the pain caused by being unable to breathe was not something a mere brocade snake could withstand.

Seeing this, Bai Chuan let go of his mouth in satisfaction and sized up his “Spicy Strip” in satisfaction.

Just as he was about to eat…

Suddenly, at this moment, a slight but incomparably obvious pain came from about four inches above his body. The alarm in his heart rang loudly. In an instant, he reacted and instinctively understood that this was the ability he had just strengthened yesterday—Danger Perception was reminding him that there was danger!

He instantly opened his neck and turned around. He opened his mouth in a show of force and looked around. The next moment, a huge mouth with sharp barbed fangs appeared from below and headed straight for his neck. There was no time to think. In an instant, the muscles on his upper body tightened, and the spine that supported his upper body tilted to the right, barely dodging the fierce bite.

Then, he used this power to coil up like a coiling dragon. This kind of soft and flexible dodging method could only be done by snakes.

At this moment, Bai Chuan finally had the chance to size up who the attacker was.

It had a triangular head with a slightly strange small horn on the top. Its short and thick body was densely covered with strange diamond-shaped patterns. The color was almost the same as the fallen leaves here.

At this moment, it seemed to be slowly retracting its body as it missed its attack.

Seeing this, Bai Chuan immediately recognized the attacker. It was a five-step snake!
