Ye Qin was not complacent about strangling a natural enemy several times bigger than himself. He recalled the scene in the battle just now and was still reviewing it.
To be honest, if it weren't for cultivation, it would be impossible to kill such prey in nature.
After all, he was not the original snake. The fact that he was once a human still gave Ye Qin an advantage, and it was also the basis for his future foothold.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have embarked on the path of spiritual practice.
Because animals have spirit but no intelligence, but now they are connected to both, they can undergo strange changes.
After lying on the ground and resting for a while, Ye Qin finally recovered.
Looking at the body of the falcon, I felt troubled.
Since he had eaten a squirrel earlier, he was not hungry, not to mention that he couldn't eat such a big one.
Besides, there are too many feathers on the falcon, and the taste is not good, just like some people don't like to eat fish because there are too many spines in it.
For Ye Qin, the same was true for the falcon in front of him, so he didn't bother to take care of it and waited for other predators to get rid of the falcon.
Ye Qin didn't know that not long after he left, there were no other predators waiting here.
A tall figure came from not far away. He slowly picked up the feathers that fell on the ground, and then saw the body of the falcon not far away.
"Hey, I was watching it fly this way before, why did it suddenly die?"
The man was puzzled. He picked up the falcon's body and examined it carefully. He suddenly discovered that the bones in the falcon's body were all soft, as if they had been broken by some force.
The surrounding grass is also a bit messy, with scattered feathers and some traces everywhere.
According to the situation at the scene, not long ago, this falcon had a big battle with other creatures.
Although the size of the falcon is not as good as that of lions and tigers, it is the absolute king in the sky. In addition, it can fly and has absolute speed and sprinting ability.
Except for those huge animals, most land creatures are no match for it.
The man's pupils shrank, as if he saw something. Between the green grass leaves, a few black scales shone in the sunlight.
He picked it up and took a look, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "These are snake scales."
"Could it be that the one who just fought with the falcon was a snake?"
The man was a little unbelievable. Eagles and falcons are the natural enemies of snakes. Their sharp claws and beaks are extremely lethal to snakes.
Once caught by them, there is almost no chance of survival.
Seeing the hawk and the falcon, the snake couldn't outrun it, so how could it take the initiative to fight?
But in this battle, the snake won.
It simply goes against the common sense of nature. Looking at the entire ecosystem, it is impossible.
However, the scene before him made him disbelief.
Snakes suffocate their prey by entangling themselves, causing their bones to break and die. The marks on the bodies of falcons are consistent with this characteristic.
In addition to the snake scales he found, there was no trace of other animals.
All signs indicate that the creature that killed this falcon was a snake!
In the past, only falcons hunted snakes, but now it's the other way around. Although this kind of thing happens, it's not common.
Although there are examples of counter-killing in the animal kingdom, there are prerequisites and conditions. The difference in strength and size between them will not be particularly outrageous.
The man looked at the snake scales on his hand and couldn't tell what kind of snake it was for a while, but the scales of the snake in front of him were relatively small, so he speculated that the snake's body shouldn't be too big either.
As we all know, the strength and size of living things are directly proportional.
A 5.5-meter-long python exerts a pressure of up to 1 kg/cm² as it wraps around its prey.
Calculated, if you have such snake scales, the winding power can kill two sparrows at most, or a giant field mouse that can reach the sky.
It is simply a fantasy and impossible to wrap the eagle in front of you to death, because small snakes simply do not have such power.
And according to what he knew, all small and medium-sized snakes lived in this mountain, and it was impossible for pythons to appear.
If a large snake or a highly venomous snake kills it back, it is understandable. But a small snake is still non-venomous. Want to kill an eagle?
It's just incredible.
Even the biologists were amazed when they came.
Everything in front of me was beyond common sense and unbelievable.
The man was a little strange, but he didn't think too much about it. "The world is so big, there are so many wonders."
...
On the other side, Ye Qin has returned to the cave. With this full meal, he probably won't have to go out for food for a few days and can concentrate on practicing in the cave.
Not far from the bones, there is a pit several meters deep. From a human perspective, this is not an exaggeration.
But if the protagonist digging the hole is replaced by a snake, it will be amazing.
As we all know, snakes do not dig their own holes. They do not have this habit. They usually occupy the caves of other animals, or find a hole in the wild to barely serve as their own nest.
Not to mention digging such a big hole, it simply goes against the common sense of living things.
Ye Qin cleared all the soil to the side, and the newly dug hole became more and more impressive. In a little more time, it will probably be completed.
After doing all this, Ye Qin began to continue practicing.
"Rumble--"
There was constant thunder outside the cave, approaching from far away, indicating that a new round of rain was coming.
The rain outside the cave was dripping, like big beads and small beads falling on a jade plate. Occasionally, there were a few loud frogs croaking, like playing a high-pitched symphony, but none of this affected Ye Qin.
He was able to enter the state of visualization very quickly, but it was a pity to say that.
The state of 'being in concentration' that I experienced when I first entered cultivation has never appeared again.
After this period of visualization, he guessed that the previous state did not happen often and did not appear every time. It represented an extraordinary state of enlightenment.
If he could enter that state, his body might undergo inexplicable changes, and even his cultivation would become more diligent.
But these are just Ye Qin's conjectures. After all, he just entered ignorantly last time and didn't even have time to figure out what was going on.
Later, when he tried to enter again, he couldn't get the point. He didn't know whether it was the wrong time or the wrong method.
Maybe he won't understand the truth until he enters that kind of epiphany for the second time.
When Ye Qin opened his eyes again, the rain outside had stopped.
Without the annoying sound of rain, his mind became restless, like a small stone thrown into the lake of his heart, causing slight ripples.
"Hey, I feel like something isn't quite right during these days of practice."
Ye Qin couldn't tell the specific details. It was as if he had clearly touched the threshold, but only the last layer of paper window was missing, and he couldn't break it no matter what.
There is a feeling of seeing flowers in the fog, obviously only a little bit close, but because there is no way to do it, I can only keep wandering.
Ye Qin couldn't help but murmur to himself, "This is probably the so-called bottleneck period, and I am also secretly confused about the future path of cultivation. I have no plan. I just take it step by step."
