Python Rebirth on Survival Island

A Thousand Snake Eggs and the Beginning of Hatching

It was dark in the jungle.

It was still night… at least two hours until dawn.

But this darkness wouldn’t affect Ye Bei’s sight in the slightest.

What came into his field of vision was a massive ruin of rocks and stones. All the rocks were grey-brown in color, and they were piled up like a mountain. At first glance, there was nothing unusual about this.

However, because Ye Bei’s formidable mental power covered his territory, it only took him a little while to see that this place wasn’t as simple as it seemed.

On the surface, it was just a field of ruins, full of stones.

However, in those stones, there were all kinds of caves crisscrossing and twisting into each other. Even the smallest of these caves was over one meter in diameter, and there were at least 200 such caves in the abandoned mountain of rocks.

If his guess was correct, the mutated Reticulated Pythons had created this pile of inconspicuous stones to disguise what was underneath.

It was really quite terrifying that even the incomplete version of the Evolution Potion was able to provide them with such high intelligence.

But what shocked Ye Bei the most was…

Five meters deep into every single cave, there was a pile of snake eggs as big as the human brain.

They were dark grey in color and densely packed.

With the assistance of his mental power, Ye Bei swiftly determined how many snake eggs there were…

There were 1000 Reticulated Python eggs.

1000 of them!

The Reticulated Python was the largest living species of snake on earth, and it was also nearly extinct.

To have so many of their eggs preserved… this was literally a huge fortune. If the humans were to find all these eggs hidden here, those biologists would probably plunge into complete madness and take them all away, no matter what!

“My King! Our kind stored up these eggs over the years. In this area, there are always battles between species. Only in this way could we ensure that the mutated Reticulated Python family wouldn’t become extinct. Just one living Reticulated Python is all it takes to raise all these eggs.”

Wang Wen explained all this to Ye Bei in a very timely manner.

“In other words, you and the three other Reticulated Pythons can hatch all these eggs? This is great… but how long will it take?”

Ye Bei was pretty excited.

When he asked Wang Wen this, he had already made up his mind that once all the 1000 Reticulated Pythons were hatched, he would immediately provide them with the finished product of the Potion of Evolution… By then, all the pythons under his leadership would have very high intelligence. Plus, he would get to watch them grow up. They would serve him for eternity. Just how amazing would that be? Just the thought alone filled Ye Bei with excitement.

However, he didn’t reveal what he was feeling. Instead, when he spoke to Wang Wen, his tone was still very calm. It even seemed like he was issuing a command.

“Three months!” Wang Wen replied immediately. “Three months will do!”

“Is there any way you could speed up the process?”

Three months? This would have been a short amount of time for Ye Bei when he was a human, but now that he had a lifespan of 100 years, three months seemed even shorter. But… at this moment, he was well aware that the humans were watching them. Hence, they had to quickly evolve and improve their strength.

“It’s possible! But…” Wang Wen stopped halfway through his sentence, then fearfully glanced at Ye Bei.

“By then, I’ll get the eight Blood Pythons—Spring, Flower, Autumn, Moon, Pursuing, Joy, Making, and Merry—to assist you!” Ye Bei said. “And during the incubation period, I’ll provide all of you with food. There’s no need for you to do anything else while you’re taking care of the eggs… what about that?” Ye Bei hurled this question back at him.

“15 days! 15 days is doable.”

With his forked tongue sticking out, Wang Wen was pushing the time needed to hatch the eggs.

But these were mutated pythons Ye Bei was dealing with, and human rules didn’t apply to them.

In fifteen days, the mutated python eggs would hatch. This made Ye Bei somewhat satisfied.

“Very well then. I’ll hand all these snake eggs over to you. But if they haven’t hatched after 15 days, I won’t hesitate to make you my next meal!”

He said this unceremoniously.

“Yes, my King!”

Wang Wen didn’t dare to hesitate in the slightest. As he stuck out his forked tongue, he slammed his massive body into the rocky mountain in front of him.

Boom…

His actions might seem excessive…

But when it came to using his strength, Wang Wen was very proficient. In less than five minutes, he smashed all the rocks in front of him and piled them up, forming them into the shape of a doughnut, with snake holes in the middle.

After Wang Wen cleaned up the stones, Ye Bei moved next to him and watched serenely.

He watched as Wang Wen actually burrowed into a hole that was only one meter in diameter.

Boom boom boom… the very next moment, his huge body had shredded the hole into pieces.

In just three breaths, he had penetrated five meters into the rock. He then extended his forked tongue and retrieved all the snake eggs with absolute ease.

“That truly is some terrifying strength. His precise control of power and destructive force is almost perfect.”

Ye Bei muttered to himself as he hunkered down to the side.

10 minutes!

20 minutes…

In just 20 minutes, Wang Wen, relying solely on his own power, had gotten the more than 1000 eggs out of the hole.

After retrieving the eggs, Wang Wen respectfully said to Ye Bei, “My King! My body may be huge, but I can’t hatch too many eggs at once. I’ll start hatching them from over here!”

While he spoke, he had already slowly covered some of the eggs with his body.

“15 days! Forget it. I’ll just wait here for that time…”

Ye Bei’s eyes glowed as he looked at the snake eggs.

After saying he would wait, Ye Bei directly used his mental power to issue an order to Spring, Flower, Autumn, Moon, Pursuing, Joy, Making, and Merry.

“Bring the cooked food and the three mutated Reticulated Pythons in the swamp here at once!”

The order was loud and clear.

Even though they didn’t understand Ye Bei’s intentions, when Ye Bei gave them orders, they didn’t dare to resist, and they simply weren’t bold enough to have any opposing thoughts.

Hiss Hiss Hiss…

Psss!

As a result, the Blood Pythons carried the cooked mutated beasts with their mouths and hurried over to Ye Bei.

Another half-hour went by.

All eight Blood Pythons arrived…

Hurling the cooked mutated beasts aside, when they walked around the pile of stones, entered the middle, and saw Wang Wen lying on top of a massive pile of snake eggs, their eyes almost popped out of their heads!

Excitement!

Yes, they were as excited as Ye Bei.

There were so many snake eggs. Once they hatched, just think how powerful they would be!!

These snake eggs were vital to the future army of snakes.

While the eight Blood Pythons stood in a state of shock, Ye Bei started to speak…
