Little Dragon didn't hesitate, it directly bit the snow ferret's little paw...

Of course, after taking a bite, it quickly let go, then Little Dragon transformed into a silver light and rapidly disappeared into Qin Fang's chest.

"That's considered complete..."

Little Dragon drilled back into Qin Fang's body, and immediately conveyed the message, which left Qin Fang a bit stunned.

Just now, with Little Dragon's help, this snow ferret had completed the process of being tamed... In other words, from now on, not only would this snow ferret not show any hostility towards Qin Fang, but it had actually become Qin Fang's pet.

Qin Fang didn't clearly understand the specific operation process, it seemed to be one of Little Dragon's Special Skills, which wasn't something Qin Fang could grasp.

However, Qin Fang didn't need to master it, he only needed the final result.

"Come over..."

Qin Fang waved his hand and called out to the snow ferret.

He saw the snow ferret's little eyes turning around quickly, then its body slightly moved, immediately transforming into a shadow rapidly darting towards Qin Fang.

The speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was already in front of Qin Fang, then its soft, small body coiled around Qin Fang's arm and quickly landed on Qin Fang's shoulder.

Gone was the previous hostility, not a hint of antagonism was shown, even the meaning of closeness was transparently displayed. Now the snow ferret sat on Qin Fang's shoulder, its little head leaning against Qin Fang's neck, using its furry body to touch Qin Fang as if scratching him, looking particularly cute...

The snow ferret is such an adorable little creature!

Of course, this overlooks its hidden flaw, the lethality.

"Let's go, it's time to set off..."

Qin Fang could clearly feel the snow ferret's reliance on him, somewhat similar to Little Dragon, but not as intense as Little Dragon.

Perhaps because this snow ferret was forcibly tamed by Little Dragon, over to Qin Fang it seemed to be a second-hand dealer, and the relative restriction wasn't that strong.

But regardless, this snow ferret was tamed by Qin Fang and became a new helper for him...

Indeed, a helper! And a very powerful helper at that...

Don't be fooled by this snow ferret's petite and charming appearance, if it got vicious, it could be very terrifying, even not inferior to a Grandmaster-level Expert.

This snow ferret, with incredibly fast speed, even Qin Fang, who had perfected the Traceless Snow Stepping Technique to the limit, was still somewhat slower in speed compared to it. Then there were very few in this world that could surpass it in terms of speed.

Moreover, the snow ferret's venom is potent, perhaps far inferior to Little Dragon, but compared to the Golden Crested Snake, it might be even more formidable.

If someone accidentally got bitten by it, basically their small life would be as good as gone!

With extreme speed coupled with intense venom, and a very petite body not easily noticed, all these conditions combined make it the most natural, gifted assassin in the wild!

Even Qin Fang just now had almost no good coping strategies, so for others... there's even less need to say.

"If trained into a stealthy assassin, it will definitely surprise many people..."

After getting this snow ferret, Qin Fang started contemplating how to use this little guy, gradually revealing a somewhat sinister smile.

If he had gotten this snow ferret earlier, Qin Fang absolutely believed dealing with those enemies wouldn't have been so difficult. As long as this little thing cooperated well with Qin Fang, the effect is definitely not a simple one plus one equals two...

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp..."

Having tamed the snow ferret, Qin Fang's task here was essentially complete. The others were still waiting for him over there. Qin Fang didn't plan to linger long, so he immediately wanted to leave.

But unexpectedly, seeing Qin Fang about to leave, the snow ferret quickly jumped down from Qin Fang's shoulder, extending its two little paws to grab Qin Fang's pant leg, pointing towards that dark corner deeper within the cave...

"What's wrong?"

Qin Fang froze for a moment, finding it a bit odd.

Although he couldn't understand the snow ferret's specific intention, seeing its look, it seemed like it wanted him to go over there.

Facing this snow ferret, Qin Fang didn't hesitate, immediately heading towards the shadowy area deeper in the cave...

"Could it be that there is some incredible treasure left inside this Snake Nest?"

Walking along, Qin Fang couldn't help muttering.

The origin of this secret place was still unclear to Qin Fang, but it must have been a very prominent sect, and the Island-guarding Great Array outside already explained the situation.

However, it seems that this great sect has left here, and they might have even been exterminated, while this secret land has been sealed since then, with no one entering for hundreds of years.

The Xuan Shui Python has long been extinct in the outside world, but there's still one alive here, which is a miracle, but also its good fortune.

A great sect has vanished like this, yet the Xuan Shui Python survived here, so... some treasures of this secret land may have been brought here by this Xuan Shui Python.

Thinking of this, Qin Fang couldn't help but feel a little excited. If this were true, his gains would indeed be extraordinary.

This cave is large, and besides the main chamber, there are several relatively smaller stone caves. However, these stone caves are very remote, with no sunlight reaching in, making them extremely dark.

As Qin Fang entered the cave, his attention was focused on the Serpent Origin Fruit, and then he was momentarily distracted by the Snow Ferret, leaving him no time to pay attention to these stone caves.

And now the Snow Ferret was leading Qin Fang to one of these stone caves...

"This is..."

As Qin Fang stepped into this stone cave and carefully observed everything inside, his expression couldn't help but change slightly.

Looking at everything in front of him, Qin Fang truly didn't know what to say.

"Are you trying to let me..."

Immediately, Qin Fang's gaze shifted to the Snow Ferret, looking at it with confusion because what's stored inside this stone cave is not gold or jewels, nor martial arts manuscripts or elixirs and miraculous medicines, but... a skeleton!

More precisely, this is a human skeleton left behind after death, and even the remaining clothes have almost completely decayed.

"Chirp chirp..."

But the Snow Ferret was acting very agitated, its small claws continuously pointing at the skeleton, seemingly trying to convey something to Qin Fang.

Unfortunately, though the Snow Ferret had been subdued by Qin Fang, Qin Fang couldn't communicate accurately with it, so he could only rely on his own guesses.

Like now, facing the Snow Ferret's gestures, Qin Fang could only helplessly shrug his shoulders, making a gesture indicating, "I don't understand."

"Chirp chirp~~"

Yet the Snow Ferret did not give up, still pointing at the skeleton and seemed to understand Qin Fang's meaning somewhat, moving forward a bit and pointing at the chest and spine of the skeleton...

However, the Snow Ferret seemed to have some dread of this skeleton, understanding that it could get closer to see more clearly, but still maintaining a considerable distance, unwilling to move even a step closer.

Qin Fang found this strange, but cautiously approached to take a closer look, while also deploying his Scouting Skill immediately.

"Hiss~~"

He didn't know until he looked, but it truly gave him a huge fright upon seeing it.

"How can there be such a thing?"

He almost instinctively shouted out in surprise, almost jumping back instinctively.

A jump of three zhang, and Qin Fang nearly fled in panic.

"Damn, what kind of place is this? Having the Xuan Shui Python is terrifying enough, how could there even be such a thing here..."

Qin Fang moved away to a safe distance, his expression quite unpleasant, and couldn't help muttering to himself, just one look at his face would reveal his current unsettled state of mind.

The Snow Ferret didn't seem surprised by Qin Fang's reaction, and in fact, it also kept a considerable distance, not daring to get too close to the skeleton.

Now Qin Fang understood what it feared, afraid of the thing he saw as well.

"A Godslaying Worm... wasn't this supposed to have gone extinct more than a thousand years ago? How could it still be alive now..."

Looking at the skeleton, or rather at the vaguely visible creature within the vertebrae of the skeleton, Qin Fang couldn't help but mutter to himself.

The Godslaying Worm—just hearing the name is enough to know how terrifying it is, since it can even kill gods, what else can't it destroy?

This is no exaggeration, but a bloody fact. This creature was indeed once hailed as the most terrifying creature on Earth! There was no equal...

However, this creature was supposed to have been completely extinct two thousand years ago, hardly anyone ever witnessed its existence, and Qin Fang couldn't understand how these Godslaying Worms in front of him survived until now?

Judging by the current situation, these few Godslaying Worms seem to be the fundamental cause of this skeleton's death, for they consumed the bone marrow completely...

The Godslaying Worm is a very frightening creature with a heavy taste, it doesn't eat normal things, only animal marrow!

Bone marrow is the most important component of the body of all animals, including humans. Once the marrow is consumed, death is imminent.

Additionally, there's a saying that the marrow is the essence of an animal's blood, and with the marrow consumed, the animal dies from the exhaustion of its life's blood, a truly tragic end...
