Cloudflow's body suddenly shrank back, and he took a closer look before he heaved a sigh of relief. It was a large white snake that was as thick as a bowl and several meters long. Its entire body was emitting a faint white glow, and it was abnormally beautiful. It should be his mother. The innate closeness made Cloudflow not feel any fear. The white snake stared at Cloudflow and gently flicked its tongue. It then stretched its head over and licked his body. Her cold snake eyes contained a care that only Cloudflow could sense.
Cloudflow felt a warmth in his heart. He relaxed and looked around.
" What kind of species is the Musashi White Snake?" He asked the system.
"Musashi White Snake, a spirit beast with an extremely low survival rate during its infancy in Musashi Kingdom. It has a certain mysterious power. It was a long-lived white snake. In its Level 3 state, it had a lifespan of about 300 years. Because of its beautiful appearance, it was considered a symbol of good luck and was a rare beast that hunters loved.”The system answered mechanically.
"Do all Musashi White Snakes have three talents?”Cloudflow asked curiously. If he was born with a talent, he wouldn't die so easily, right?
"Ordinary Musashi White Snakes can obtain a talent when they grow to level 3.”the system replied.
Cloudflow looked around and only saw a large white snake. There was no sign of its 'father'.
"System, do you know what kind of world this is?”Cloudflow asked tentatively.
"Inuyasha Warring States Period."
" Huh?!" Of course, Cloudflow had seen this anime with explosive martial strength. A low-level mysterious race like them was probably equivalent to one of the hundreds of monsters killed by Inuyasha's Wind Inflicted Pain. They might even be inferior…
Even Inuyasha, the son of the Fighting Tooth King, who was one of the most powerful warriors in this era, had escaped death countless times. Of course, the Musashi White Snake was not a demon, but a spirit beast. It did not use demonic power, but spiritual power, the same spiritual power as the witch monk. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been regarded as an auspicious symbol and sought after by countless humans.
"What time is it now?" Cloudflow asked.
"Fifty years before the birth of Inuyasha.”the System said.
" At this time…" Cloudflow was about to cry." Isn't this the era of great demons?”
" True Name: Cloudflow
[Level: 1]
[Race: Musashi White Snake (White snake spirit beast living in Musashi, can be upgraded to level 3)]
[Physical Strength: 2/2 (Maximum Strength that can be increased within current Strength/Level)]
Spirit: 1.5/2
[Elemental: 0.5/2]
[Combat power: 3 (The average combat power of an ordinary adult human is 1)]
[Experience Points: 0/2]
Although his attributes had increased by quite a bit, his combat power was still at 3 points. Cloudflow was helpless against this rough data, but it was still useful. He knew that he had increased his Spirit by 0.3 and Elemental Power by 0.5. However, these two powers were only of little value at the moment because he did not have any related talents or skills.
The big white snake placed some white crystal fragments beside Cloudflow. These crystal-like stones emitted a faint glow, like a solidified liquid.
"White Spirit Stone is a stone that contains rich nutrients and energy for spirit beasts.”
[Mission: Survive]
He had to endure the pain of being baptized by the White Spirit Stone for the first time.
[Mission Reward: Obtained 3 experience points.]”
Cloudflow's eyes darted around. It was indeed System Bai. There was no failure notification, but it would probably not feel good if it failed. According to the quest prompt, this was an edible stone. Perhaps it was the food of the Musashi White Snake, but eating it for the first time would cause a lot of pain. If he could survive, he could level up.
The white snake nudged Cloudflow, who was deep in thought, and let out a low growl, signaling him to eat the White Spirit Rock. Cloudflow opened its tiny mouth and swallowed a medium-sized stone. It immediately felt the stone melt in its mouth, turning into a milk-like fluid that poured into its body. A scorching heat ran amok in its young body, and a tearing pain came from its internal organs.
"Ah!"
Cloudflow rolled around in its nest. Why did it hurt so much! It was as if he had sustained a gunshot wound.
Blood seeped out of his scales, and soon, his white body turned blood-red. Cracks appeared in his golden eyes like glass, and he lost his sight.
This pain lasted for an unknown period of time until his entire body turned into a puddle of rotten meat. A warm current rose up and began to repair his broken body bit by bit. A complete blood-colored soft snake scale peeled off his body. It was as if he had been reborn. New white scales had grown out of his body, and a refreshing feeling was born in his eyes. His golden snake eyes condensed into a thick liquid again and solidified into two shining golden stars.
Cloudflow stretched out his tongue from his nest and let out a long breath. It was finally over. At this moment, he had truly become a Musashi White Snake. His body had grown from the size of a palm to more than a meter long, and every scale was the size of a thumb, shining with a white light. On Earth, this could be said to be completely against the principles of biology, but here, it was a natural change.
"Mission accomplished.
Obtained 3 experience points, leveling requirements met.
Current level 2, character stats window updated.”
"Check the stats window." He thought to himself.
" True Name: Cloudflow
[Level: 2]
[Race: Musashi White Snake (White snake spirit beast living in Musashi, can be upgraded to level 3)]
[Physical Strength: 5/5 (Maximum Strength that can be increased within current Strength/Level)]
[Spirit: 3.5/5]
[Elemental: 2.5/5]
[Combat power: 6 (The average combat power of an ordinary adult human is 1)]
[Experience Points: 1/5]
His combat power had doubled, but his physical strength was still at full capacity. The effect of his talent was indeed amazing. It seemed that even if he leveled up to level 3, he might still be at full physical strength.
" Do you want to choose a new talent?"
" I choose the spiritual power talent." This was what he had thought of long ago. The spiritual power talent had two abilities, illusion and telekinesis. Compared to the direct destructive power of the elements, it was obviously more mysterious. He was too weak now, and his physical strength was enough for his attack ability. It was better to use mystery to protect himself.
Elemental power was the manifestation of various powers through pure spiritual power. One could also choose to directly use spiritual power to carry out low-efficiency attacks, or increase the utilization rate and transform it into special power, such as magic-breaking power. However, that was obviously not something that could be easily controlled. In short, elemental power referred to energy attacks.
A clear stream of energy flowed through his mind. Cloudflow looked at his stats window and indeed, his spiritual power had increased to 5/5. His combat power had also increased to 10 points. This didn't mean that he could only deal with ten adults. Ten adults added up to less than 5 points of combat power. If he reached 10 points of combat power, he would be considered a little monster. He was only slightly stronger than Mica in the anime, but he might be weaker than the Thousand-Legged Centipede in the first episode.
"Hiss!" A loud cry woke Cloudflow from his thoughts.
The white snake actually defied the laws of physics and floated in the air, circling Cloudflow once as if celebrating his survival. Only then did Cloudflow realize that the mother of the white snake was gifted with mental power, which was the manifestation of telekinesis.
"Mother." He tried to use his spiritual power to send out a signal.
"Child." The white snake gave a simple response. It was not a language but a mysterious message. Cloudflow could understand it, and it was also the use of spiritual power. She floated to Cloudflow's side and nudged him." Eat the rest. It won't hurt anymore."”
Cloudflow obediently swallowed the rest of the White Spirit Rock. Sure enough, he did not feel any pain. He could feel the spiritual energy in his body slowly increasing, and the elements in his stats had also become 4/5. However, his combat strength did not change. It was still because he lacked energy attacks, so he could not release any more energy.
" You have received an urgent mission. Destroy the Cat Demons that invaded Maple Village.
[Mission Details: Maple Village is being attacked by Cat Demons. As a resident of the Divine Imperial Tree that has been guarded by Maple Village for generations, and as an auspicious spirit beast, you should set an example for the spirit beasts and protect humans.]
Reward from the mission, 10 experience points.”
"So, I have to go through life and death on the first day I'm born?”Cloudflow was powerless to retort." This is actually the Divine Imperial Tree? My home is Divine Imperial Wood…"
"Boom!"
The pitch-black horizon lit up, and a huge explosion accompanied by a strong red demonic power came from not far away. The entire ground felt a slight tremor.
"Hiss!" The white snake mother became restless.
As an intelligent spirit beast, she wanted to protect Maple Village, but she was worried about her only child.
"Mother, I want to go…"
" They are indeed kind-hearted spirit beasts." Cloudflow sighed. From the introduction, it could be seen that humans would never treat them kindly, but they always had the heart to save others.
