Reincarnation Paradise: The Crucible

In the valley, Xu Yue looked at the equipment in his hands with a slight smile on his face.

With this thing, he will be more certain to assassinate the Snake Demon King, and not only the Snake Demon King, he may be able to kill the entire Snake Valley in one go.

Recalling the terrain of the Snake Valley that he learned from the snake demon, his eyes flashed with golden red fire. After reorganizing the plan in his mind, he put the cloak back into space and put the painting in his hand close to his chest.

With a thought, the painted skin that fit the skin quickly dissolved and turned into a puddle of cyan solution. The solution quickly spread along the skin and wrapped him completely.

After a moment, Xu Yue in human form disappeared, and what appeared instead was a domineering male snake demon. The tall humanoid upper body was powerful, the arms were muscular, and the lower body was a thick blue-black snake tail and palm-sized cold snake scales. The layers are sealed and look like they are made of pig iron.

"Fortunately, the gender has not changed. I thought it would be the female snake demon form before."

After looking at his new form, Xu Yue sighed happily. As he spoke, the scarlet snake letter unconsciously spat out from his mouth. After he took it back, a lot of information suddenly emerged in his mind.

"This is...snake olfactory perception."

After sorting out the extra information in his mind, Xu Yue was stunned for a moment, then closed his eyes, tentatively spit out the snake letter, swayed it up and down, and then took it back into his mouth.

Sure enough, his mind automatically recognized the scents of many creatures around him, such as rabbits hiding in the grass in the distance, moles wandering underground, and the trajectory of the previous group of snake demons in the valley. This information passed through his mouth. Snake letter was quickly recognized by him.

It seems that this disguise is not that simple. It actually gives snakes the ability to distinguish odor factors.

After feeling Snake Xin's ability, he held on to the rock beside him and began to stand upright. As the thick snake tail on his lower body stood upright, a large shadow was cast on the ground.

He was originally 1.9 meters tall. After putting on the skin of the snake demon and standing completely, his body reached a height of 2.56 meters. The overall appearance looked domineering and fierce.

"interesting."

The snake's tail swung under Xu Yue's body, and his body had climbed onto the large rock beside him. The snake's tail was tightly wrapped around the boulder. As the snake's tail shrank, the blue-black scales rubbed against the surface of the stone to produce fine stone powder.

The sound of cracking stones continued to sound. Finally, after a roar, the big stone was completely crushed by the snake's tail. In the rising gray smoke, a black shadow quickly jumped out and ran towards the direction outside the valley, leaving behind A wide winding snake path.

………

Wilderness, Black Scale Snake Valley.

This is the only existing large-scale snake demon gathering point outside Xingyang City. Every time it is close to noon, all the snake demons who go out to hunt will rush back to the valley.

At this time, it was time for the snakes to return to their nests. When they climbed up and looked up, they saw an endless stream of snake demons rushing towards the Snake Valley from all directions. The rustling snake tails made a sound of friction. The scene was particularly spectacular.

In addition to the snake demons, there are also many prey of various colors captured by the snake demons in the group of returning snake demons. The beasts roar in terror and the humans cry in despair, mixed with the rustling sounds of the snake demons as they advance, giving this scene It renders a touch of horror.

As a species that can survive in a dangerous wilderness, each snake demon is very strong individually. Although its upper body is close to that of a human and it also has flexible hands, they rarely rely on tools. The only thing they rely on is, It's his strong body and hard scales.

Unlike skinny humans, adult snake demons are usually more than five meters long. When standing upright, their height can generally reach two meters and two three meters. Individual strong ones can even grow to about two and a half meters. With such a physical gap, ordinary snake demons can reach around two meters. Any human being who confronts any snake monster will be completely crushed.

Only in the Xuanwu Kingdom, a country where everyone practices martial arts, can the powerful race of snake demons be suppressed and roam around in the wilderness.

Among the group of snake demons returning home at this time, a strong male snake man with an erect height of nearly 2.6 meters was undoubtedly the most outstanding and eye-catching group in the group, attracting frequent glances from the female snake demons in the team.

Xu Yue wandered among the team, turning a deaf ear to the blazing gazes coming from all around. He was now assessing the numerical strength of this snake demon tribe.

According to the data obtained from the assassin's tavern, the average adult snake demon should only be 2.23 meters tall. However, from what he saw along the way, the snake demons at this gathering point were basically over 2.3 meters tall. There are nearly ten male snake monsters with a height of about two meters and six meters.

From this point of view alone, the snake demons in this tribe are far more powerful than ordinary tribes. Years of assassinations have eliminated the weak ones, and the rest are the best. And in this The snake demon king born from the group must have extraordinary strength.

During the observation, Snake Valley soon appeared in front of Xu Yue. Compared with the desolate scenery with scarce external vegetation, Snake Valley appeared to be much more vibrant.

A clear long river meanders through one side of the Snake Valley, which brings rare water and green life to the gathering point. This is also the reason why the Snake Demon King finally set his headquarters here after the three gathering points merged.

At the entrance of the Snake Valley, two tall snake demons, even half a head taller than Xu Yue, were guarding both sides. Their eyes were coldly watching each snake demon that stepped into the Snake Valley. They were hesitating about the snakes in their mouths, constantly analyzing the smell factors of the coming and going. .

What they are wary of is none other than assassins like Xu Yue. Disguise is an assassin's specialty.

A few days ago, two of the top 100 assassins sneaked into the Snake Valley and assassinated the Snake Demon King.

But the final result was that one person was blown up on the spot by the Snake Demon King's tail flick, and the other person ran away immediately when he saw that the situation was not going well. Finally, after paying the price of an arm, he was lucky enough to escape from the Snake Valley.

Although this assassination did not cause many casualties, from that day on, the Snake Demon King sent two snake demons to guard the entrance of Snake Valley to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

However, this method may be able to uncover the disguised assassin, but if you want to catch Xu Yue who has almost completely turned into a snake demon, you are overthinking.

When he passed the valley entrance, the guarding snake demons on both sides were only attracted by his strong figure. After taking a second look, they stopped paying attention.

As for Xu Yue being a stranger, that's nothing worth worrying about. Every few days, snake people from the wild will come to join them. From the day the snake demon king was born, this tribe has been attracting snake demons from outside. Start gathering.

If the birth of the Snake Demon King was not too short, the number of snake demons in the tribe would have increased by at least three times. By then, this Snake Valley would have truly become a serious problem for Xingyang City.

In fact, even if Xu Yue fails to kill the Snake Demon King today, at most three days later, the army of the City Lord's Mansion will directly march out to surround Snake Valley, but it is hard to say how many soldiers will be lost by then.

Entering the Snake Valley, unlike Xu Yue's imagination of the scene filled with bones, the environment in the valley was actually quite clean. There was no stench, no corpses, only green lawns and scattered boulders.

On the west side of Snake Valley, there are streams passing through. They are the biggest contributor to the vegetation that can grow in this valley.

On the rock walls surrounding the Snake Valley, there are dozens of caves of various sizes, which are the habitats and storage rooms of the snake demons.

The snake demons who returned with their prey carried their prey into a cave in groups as soon as they entered the Snake Valley.

As for the other snake demons, after entering the Snake Valley, they found a place to lie down. It was almost noon and they were now in a lazy state.

Xu Yue also found a rock on the edge, then wrapped himself around it, looking down at the snake demons swimming below.

After transforming into the snake demon form, he inexplicably liked the feeling of the snake's tail wrapped around things. Judging from the many boulders in the valley, he should not be the only snake to have this habit.

While waiting quietly, time passed by minute by second, and the snake demons returning at the mouth of the valley became increasingly sparse, and it should be nearing the end.

At the edge of the Snake Valley, Xu Yue was lying quietly on the boulder, his tail occasionally slapping the stone wall beneath him a few times, seemingly carelessly. As time went by, more and more of the characteristics of the snake demon were reflected in him.

This is the instinctive erosion mentioned in the equipment introduction. Of course, this is also the result of Xu Yue's deliberate indulgence. Before the snake demon king comes out, he must integrate himself into the identity of the snake demon as soon as possible to avoid exposing any flaws.

Suddenly, Xu Yue's divergent snake eyes solidified slightly. He seemed to see a familiar person among the snake demon prey that had just been brought in.
