Newbie Champ, That Thing Looks Exactly Like a Black Pattern Snake?
— Posted by YeongsuDogam
I've spent my whole life studying these things so I know 100%.

See those black stripes on the white body in a perfect pattern? That's a dead giveaway. Definitely a Black Pattern Snake.

Boil it and eat for massive vitality and recovery boost. Rare spirit beast.

Yup, especially for young ones—huge boost to physical growth. Major sects and clans fight over them for heirs.

And yours looks at least twice as big as that one;;
'For real? This is such a rare spirit beast?' I thought, staring at the Black Pattern Snake wriggling under my claw. The gallery was losing its mind over it, but from my perspective, I'd just spotted a weird-looking snake while wandering the forest and grabbed it out of curiosity. Talk about striking gold.
Honestly, that wasn't even the only one. There'd been a whole bunch nearby, like they lived in a pack. I hadn't known they were valuable back then, so I'd only snagged the biggest and let the rest go. Should've caught 'em all if I'd known.

'Puhuhu, gallery trolling is the best.' Watching the gallery users seethe with envy, I slowly devoured the Black Pattern Snake. As expected from a premium tonic—it tasted way different from the other spirit beasts I'd eaten.
Nom nom— Its tough hide was no match for this dragon's teeth. In seconds, the massive body was all in my belly.

Ten Thousand Spirits Gluttony Art unlocked!
'Kyuu? Ten Thousand Spirits Gluttony Art?' Intrigued by the grand-sounding name, I read its description.
The Ten Thousand Spirits Gluttony Art—devour all heaven and earth's spirits endlessly. In short, the more you eat, the stronger you get. It aligns with yoju bloodfood ways of growing by eating each other. But it doesn't stop at raw power—you can steal special abilities or stats from what you eat. Perfectly evil and ideal for yoju.
'Kyuu...? Nice... Steal abilities from devoured spirit beasts? I'm like an infinitely evolving monster!' With all the bizarre powers in this xianxia world, snagging even a fraction would be huge.
I decided to test it right away.

'Kyuu! Of course! Extract now!'
Swoosh— A thick aura of life energy flooded my body.
Ooh! This is nuts! To test my new power, I nicked my skin lightly.
Gloop gloop— It healed instantly, like nothing happened. I'd had fast recovery as a dragon, but not this fast! Super Regeneration lived up to the name.
Meanwhile, as I polished off the snake and got a handle on my new power...
The gallery had exploded into another random hot topic.

Why's a yoju young beast posting rare??

Cuz most yoju at low realms got no intelligence.

Most just follow instincts. How could they gallery post? Smart enough yoju are rare regardless of species.

Above comment checks out. Yoju need Aura Building at least (Beast Lord level) to blend into society.

Yeah exceptions like true dragons or phoenixes but that's super rare.

Gotcha
'Kyuu? They wanna see my form?' Their "cute" comments made me glance at my reflection in a puddle. A tiny, adorable hatchling tilted its head. Self-praise aside... yeah, even I thought it was cute.
'Kyuu! Whatever, Daoyeongbang protects personal info strictly.' Unless someone blabs their location, no one's finding me. Plus, the cultivation world is huge—one photo won't pinpoint me.
After some thought, I figured a pic was safe. I snapped my cutest selfie and posted it.
The already chaotic gallery went nuclear.
