"This is the magic of nature, because after weighing the benefits of life and spiritual power, they will choose to obtain more spiritual power. This is just like the world's pursuit of wealth, and they will not be satisfied at all. Every day Beasts of one level, their goal is to get to the next level.”
Hearing what Ye Xiaowu said, a very vivid picture suddenly appeared in Peng Zhan's mind, just like those who were officials, as soon as they stepped down from high positions, they would be immediately replaced by strong men in lower positions.
"With so many ferocious beasts gathering, will the spiritual energy of the medicinal herbs be enough?" Peng Zhan asked worriedly, fearing that the presence of these cobras would damage the spiritual energy of the medicinal herbs.
"The spiritual grass itself will also be affected by the essence of the guardian beast. They have a complementary relationship. According to the guardian beast at this level, the spiritual grass here is about level four."
"Level 4, weak or strong?" Peng Zhan asked quickly.
"In general, we generally divide spiritual grass into tenth level. I have only seen a seventh-level one once. The fourth level is actually very rare. The tenth-level spiritual grass itself can be transformed into shape, and their guardian beasts can also be transformed. They must be existences at the level of great demons. Not to mention mortals, even cultivators who encounter them will be reduced to food."
At this moment, he heard a hissing sound, and then Peng Zhan saw something like a pillar rising slowly from the grass not far away.
If you look closely, you will see that it is a giant python with a head as big as a basin.
"Why, how come there is a giant python here? There was never one before." Peng Zhan said with some surprise.
"Have there been more powerful beasts here before? In the deep mountains, real beasts will have their own territories. This giant python should have just become the overlord here."
"Here, when I fell here before, there were no venomous snakes or beasts!" Peng Zhan muttered in a low voice. Suddenly he was startled. Could it be because of the existence of the Lord of Lingxiao Palace that other beasts did not dare to get involved?
According to Ye Xiaowu, the place where this kind of spiritual grass gathers in the jungle must be a favorite in the eyes of beasts. They will definitely fight for it, and then the strongest one will become the overlord here.
Peng Zhan really guessed it right. It was because the Lord of Lingxiao Palace was here before that those poisonous snakes and beasts did not dare to come here.
Although the Lingxiao Palace Master's hands and feet were locked by special iron chains at that time, she was a master at the peak of the late Earth Stage. The murderous aura emanating from her body made no poisonous snakes or beasts dare to approach.
Some ignorant animals came here and became the food of the Lord of Lingxiao Palace.
As long as there are animals approaching, she will use her internal power to refine them into energy to absorb nutrients.
During these years of being trapped, she relied on refining wild animals to maintain the energy she needed to survive.
After the Lord of Lingxiao Palace left, a huge power vacuum was formed here. During this period, this place must have experienced brutal killings, and that giant python should be the new overlord of the Demon Locking Cave.
Of course, it is difficult to say whether it will be the final overlord, because if a new beast intervenes, there will inevitably be another desperate struggle.
This is probably why those guardian beasts take advantage of their spiritual power to step up their efforts to improve their abilities, because they may be replaced by stronger ones at any time.
Of course, when the guardian beasts are so powerful that they can no longer satisfy the spiritual strength provided by the spiritual grass, they will also leave and look for spiritual grass with more powerful spiritual power.
Therefore, if the spiritual grass wants to retain the guardian beast, it also needs to continuously improve its own spiritual strength in order to maintain the guardian beast's loyalty to it.
Once the guardian beast is replaced by a new beast, the outcome waiting for them can only be death. It is obvious that the giant python has regarded Peng Zhan and the others as the beast that wants to replace it, so it has shown a very strong malice. .
"Can it listen to you?" Peng Zhan asked Ye Xiaowu softly, looking at the giant python's head shaking in the air.
"I'm not sure. If it has become a guardian beast with other spiritual powers before, its intelligence will be very high, and it will be difficult for me to fool it."
Just as he was talking, a hissing sound suddenly came from the grass, and Ye Xiaowu quickly said: "Peng Zhan, be careful, the giant python is about to attack!"
Before Ye Xiaowu finished speaking, Peng Zhan felt a huge snake head coming straight towards the door.
