My Second Aptitue is a Snake Spirit?

"Cold as ice, sharp as a blade. My son will be named Leng Feng!"

"My son, remember, you are the last bloodline of the Great… ... ..."

...

...

Leng Feng struggled in his dreams as unfamiliar and vague voices constantly assaulted his mind, creating indescribable pain. It was as if he was desperately trying to remember the dream while, at the same time, attempting to forget it.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes with a start. The first thing he noticed was the dried blood on his bedsheet. He tried to move but realized his body felt incredibly heavy—both physically and mentally.

As he recalled the events of the previous night, memories flooded his mind. He remembered obtaining an innate treasure pearl and two spatial rings. When the pearl merged into his palm, it was swallowed by something. Moreover, just before losing consciousness, a second spirit had emerged from his back!

Leng Feng gritted his teeth and fought against his will to sit up. After great effort, he finally managed to sit up. Wasting no time, he quickly closed his eyes and sensed the spirits in his dantian.

Previously, only a human-rank silver chain spirit was wrapping around the outer layer of his dantian. Now, there was a small shadow spirit that appeared to be a snake coiling lazily in the inner layer.

What was strange was that he clearly remembered his Silver Chain Spirit as a silver chain, yet now it was milky-colored with hints of black wisps trying to infest it.

"It's really a second spirit! What's going on?" Leng Feng was confused. He pondered deeply until a realization struck him.

Aptitude was bestowed by the heavenly way, tied to the spirit that originated from one's soul. When a person possessed another's body, the original soul would vanish, replaced by the possessor's soul. This meant the possessor would still have their own aptitude, not the body's original aptitude.

Although there were rumors of miraculous items that could bypass this rule, none had been proven true.

"If that's the case, why hadn't the Silver Chain Spirit disappeared then?"

Leng Feng contemplated this and came to a realization.

His soul had not replaced the original soul of this body; instead, it had fused naturally with it. This fusion likely caused his earth soul to merge with the body's ownerless soul, granting him two spirits.

Why his second spirit had only awakened now was a mystery. But one thing was clear: he was fortunate.

Having two spirits would significantly enhance his ability to refine primal energies!

"But I remember the Soul Devouring Pearl was swallowed. Is this little guy the culprit?" Leng Feng stared at the little snake rolling and yawning around his dantian. He couldn't decide whether to laugh or cry.

Maybe it was a good thing that he no longer had the pearl, which would have required him to devour innocent souls…

Leng Feng sighed and withdrew his consciousness from his dantian. As his sight returned to reality, he noticed the morning light flooding the room.

He realized it was early morning, indicating he had been unconscious for several hours.

Lin Feng felt the chill of the air and thought about yesterday. He nearly died from the awakening of his second spirit!

He shook his head and stood in front of a mirror. His face was a little pale, and he was somewhat skinny now due to the loss of blood.

Lin Feng summoned his second spirit, and an ominous mist soon emerged from his back as a sinister shadow rose like an otherworldly monster was awakened.

At that moment, Lin Feng was stunned because his originally snow hair had completely turned black. He also felt a tingling in his right palm.

After spreading the palm, Lin Feng noticed it had an eye-shaped symbol with cross pupils. It was dyed in crimson, looking sinister and hideous.

A stream of information soon gushed into his head.

When a new spirit was called for the first time, it would transmit inherited memories to the owner.

This snake-like spirit was actually an auxiliary type. It could swallow Heaven and Earth and devour Mountains and Seas!

Lin Feng understood that this was real. He remembered the Soul Devouring Pearl that was swallowed in one gulp last night.

After swallowing that pearl, the snake-like spirit had obtained another attribute.

The Soul Devouring Pearl was a devouring-type Innate Treasure. Now that it was swallowed by his second spirit, Leng Feng naturally obtained the corresponding attribute of the pearl.

That was evident from the symbol on his palm!

With the symbol on his palm, he could devour anything, be it pills, spirits, or primal energy.

"What a terrifying spirit! Is this actually a spirit?" Leng Feng was doubtful, but he temporarily forgot about this matter.

He sat on his bed, hesitation flashing in his eyes. Testing his second spirit for the first time carried unknown consequences, especially considering he almost died last night.

But after careful deliberation, he decided to proceed with his experiment regardless. Quickly, he gathered all the pills from his two spatial rings and commanded the eye-like symbol on his palm to devour them.

The pills were soon devoured without any resistance. As they entered his palm, they transformed into spiritual energy, surging towards his dantian like a tsunami.

Peak 1st Body Refinement...

2nd Body Refinement...

Middle 2nd Body Refinement...

Peak 2nd Body Refinement...

His cultivation rose without a stop. Only when he reached early 3rd Body Refinement did the rampaging spiritual energies in his dantian cool down.

Leng Feng opened his mouth in surprise. This was no longer considered normal... This was simply too amazing!

In just a minute, his cultivation actually rose to the 3rd Body Refinement?

Leng Feng felt a new door had opened before him.
