Chapter 1: Reborn as a Silver Ring Snake, Captured to Raise Gu at the Start!

In the deep and tranquil forest, sunlight filtered through the dense branches and leaves, the mottled light and shadows dancing like mysterious runes upon the ground covered in moss and rotting leaves.

Outside the forest, a black luxury car sat quietly.

The car door opened slowly, and a woman wearing sunglasses and tactical gear, with a cold temperament, stepped out.

Her figure was slender and lithe, and every step she took carried an unquestionable firmness.

Behind her followed two capable-looking bodyguards; their gazes were sharp and their muscles tense, as if ready at any moment to deal with any sudden danger.

Just then, a poacher emerged from behind a large tree, carrying a large pack on his back, his expression nervous and urgent.

Seeing the woman in tactical gear approach, the poacher hurried forward and said in a low voice, "Miss, the thing you wanted is here."

As he spoke, he opened a corner of his pack, revealing a black and white Silver Ring Snake.

Under the dim light, the ring patterns on the snake's body appeared eerie and dangerous.

The woman coldly removed her sunglasses, swept a glance with her frigid eyes, and said coldly, "The goods are not bad, name your price."

The poacher held up five fingers and quoted a high price.

The wealthy young lady was silent for a moment, then gave a light hum, signaling the bodyguards behind her to get the money.

"Miss, you are truly a straightforward person; I will notify you immediately next time I have good goods."

A greedy smile appeared on the poacher's face as he took the money and hurried off into the depths of the forest.

The wealthy young lady glanced at the goods she had obtained and turned around expressionlessly.

Followed by her bodyguards, she walked toward the luxury car, her cold silhouette gradually disappearing at the edge of the forest.

"Miss, why are you buying so many poisonous insects and snakes?"

In the car, a bodyguard looked at the several baskets in the trunk, all filled with poisonous creatures, and couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Luoli gave the bodyguard a cold look and said indifferently, "Don't ask what you shouldn't; just drive your car well."

Upon hearing this, the bodyguard immediately shut his mouth and focused on driving, though he felt puzzled in his heart: how had the once gentle-natured Miss become so cold during this period?

Jiang Luoli looked at the scenery outside the window and murmured to herself, "There isn't much time left for me; I must raise a Poison King within half a month."

No one knew that the current Jiang Luoli had been reborn from fifty years in the future.

In her past life, shortly after, a mysterious aurora swept across the globe.

At that time, the world began to enter the Spiritual Qi Recovery Era.

Animals and plants began to enter a stage of rapid evolution.

Some ancient ruins appeared one after another, bringing countless opportunities.

Countless terrifying monsters and transcendent humans fought fiercely to compete for these opportunities.

The globe fell into chaos and panic.

In her past life, Jiang Luoli had accidentally obtained the inheritance of an ancient powerhouse, the Gu Master, in an ancient ruin.

Relying on the eerie methods of a Gu master, she became one of the world's peak powerhouses step by step and was revered as the "Gu Immortal."

A month ago, Jiang Luoli was reborn and immediately purchased a large quantity of highly toxic creatures.

She wanted to perform the ancient "Gu Raising Technique" to use these poisonous creatures to raise a "Poison King."

As long as she could refine this "Poison King" into her own "Life-Bound Gu" before the mutation arrived.

Then Jiang Luoli would be able to quickly gain powerful strength and tower above everyone else.

"Where is this taking me? Damn it, they aren't going to take me to make soup, are they?"

At the same time, the Silver Ring Snake that had just been traded in the trunk felt somewhat restless as it listened to the quiet inside the car.

His name was Lu Chuan, and he was a transmigrator.

Two and a half years ago, he was reborn as a newly hatched Silver Ring Snake.

And after two and a half years of growth, he was now a mature Silver Ring Snake.

Just yesterday, while he was out foraging, he was accidentally captured by a poacher.

Then he was resold.

Lu Chuan felt worried about his upcoming fate.

"I'm not going to be taken to make soup, am I..." he roared internally.

An hour later, Jiang Luoli carried the basket containing the Silver Ring Snake to the top of a remote cave.

The entrance to the cave was sealed shut, with a "skylight" left at the top.

Jiang Luoli opened the skylight and glanced inside; she could vaguely see dense swarms of snakes, insects, rats, and ants scurrying about, and a fishy stench rushed toward her.

Frowning, a small knife appeared in Jiang Luoli's hand, and she slashed her wrist, letting wisps of fresh blood drip down through the "skylight."

The "Gu Raising Technique" must use the Gu master's own blood as a guide to set up a "Blood Spirit Array," making these poisonous creatures lose their minds and devour each other frantically to be effective.

Moreover, after consuming the Gu master's blood.

The "Poison King" raised this way would have a Blood Pact with the Gu master, allowing it to be refined into a "Life-Bound Gu" without any resistance.

Subsequently, Jiang Luoli took out a medicine bottle and poured some mysterious Gu Powder into the cave.

This was the "Gu Powder" that Jiang Luoli had specially made, which could make these poisonous creatures fight and devour each other frantically.

After doing all this, Jiang Luoli finally opened the basket.

Before Lu Chuan could react, he was thrown directly into the cave.

"Hiss, hiss..."

"Swish, swish..."

As soon as he landed, Lu Chuan heard a strange sound.

He narrowed his eyes and looked, his heart suddenly filled with shock, and he subconsciously twisted his body.

Not far from him, a dense mass of snakes, insects, rats, and ants were gathered together, frantically slaughtering each other and gnawing on corpses.

There were spiders, scorpions, centipedes...

They were all actually highly toxic creatures!

Faintly, Lu Chuan even smelled a scent of blood, which actually made him feel somewhat excited, wishing he could immediately join the battle of these poisonous creatures.

"Something is not right..."

Lu Chuan forcibly suppressed the impulse in his heart.

If he were to rush up to slaughter, he would end up either dead or crippled! But why, just by smelling this scent of blood.

He could not help but want to participate in the battle and slaughter along with them!

"Ding, Spiritual Energy Revival is detected to be about to begin, Swallowing Evolution System is officially activated."

Just as Lu Chuan's consciousness was blurring and he was about to rush over to slaughter, a voice suddenly rang out in his mind, causing him to immediately recover his clear state.

Subsequently, a light screen suddenly appeared in Lu Chuan's mind.

"Swallowing Evolution System?"

"This is my golden finger!"

After reacting, Lu Chuan was suddenly wild with joy in his heart.

Swallowing evolution, as the name implies, means that as long as he swallows other living beings, he can obtain Evolution Points, allowing Lu Chuan to evolve.

"Swallowing living beings can obtain Evolution Points..."

Lu Chuan muttered in his heart, then turned his gaze toward the various poisonous creatures that were slaughtering each other.
