Reborn As a Snake, I Can Absorb Fear

Chapter 141: They’re going to film a sequel to The White Snake.Jiang Feng grew two more feet under the water tower, but since the feet weren’t designed well, he lost his balance and fell.

Fortunately, his water wouldn’t flow out chaotically!

Jiang Feng simply turned himself into a water tank, sliding across the ground on treads made of water.

A mass of water kept changing like this, shifting into various shapes.

Jiang Feng also discovered that his water didn’t drench things; it was as if an invisible membrane separated objects from contact with his water.

Jiang Feng turned into a giant water droplet and rolled to the riverbank, then rolled directly into the river.

The river water converged around him like a siphon; this water couldn’t merge into his body, remaining separated from his own water just like other objects.

However, he could control this water at will.

Jiang Feng controlled the hundreds of millions of tons of water around him, forming a water wall.

In an instant, the entire river was cut off, a water wall standing in the middle of the river, blocking the upstream flow.

Jiang Feng could feel that maintaining this water wall actually consumed his Mental Energy, and the consumption rate was getting faster and faster.

Jiang Feng knew this was because the pressure from the upstream water against the water wall was increasing; if he didn’t consume Mental Energy to maintain it, the wall would be crushed by the pressure.

To avoid wasting too much Mental Energy, Jiang Feng withdrew the water wall.

Jiang Feng rolled back to the shore, and the river water followed him onto the land.

Jiang Feng discovered that controlling this river water didn’t consume his Mental Energy—or rather, the consumption was minimal—as if the river water was being controlled entirely by his body.

Perhaps this was the wonder of the Water Spirit Body.

Jiang Feng controlled the water to flow through the city while he floated on its surface.

The hundreds of millions of tons of water could form a flow two thousand meters long, five hundred meters wide, and one hundred meters high.

Jiang Feng traveled atop the water; the hundred-meter-high flood passed through, washing the ruined city even more thoroughly.

Some survivors had managed to hide underground, but they were submerged and washed out by this flood.

The Water Spirit Body form was great fun for Jiang Feng, and he didn’t pay much attention to those survivors.

In a corner of the city, there were a few rare buildings that hadn’t been completely destroyed.

Two people were hiding here, both with faces typical of Sakura Country.

It was precisely Jiteng Sanlang and his assistant.

This time, Jiteng Sanlang hadn’t come to Los Angeles for anything else but to have his documentary blockbuster screened in Hollywood.

Since filming the footage in Kobe last time, Jiteng Sanlang had completed post-production in just a few days.

It could be described as light speed.

Originally, he had planned to release it in Sakura Country, but Sakura Country actually wouldn’t allow him to broadcast it.

Left with no choice, he had to come to Hollywood.

What he didn’t expect was that just as the release was finalized, he happened to encounter the white snake attack.

Jiteng Sanlang didn’t know if he was lucky or unlucky; he had experienced two white snake attacks, yet he had managed to survive both by a stroke of luck.

During the time he spent as a survivor, a crazy idea began to sprout in his heart.

He wanted to film a sequel.

Yes, even before the first installment was released, he was rushing to film a sequel.

It was extremely risky; ordinary investors wouldn’t even give such a project the time of day.

In fact, it really was very risky—risking his life—and his assistant kept trying to persuade him otherwise.

After all, this white snake city-siege event was completely different from the one back in Sakura Country.

Back in Sakura Country, the white snake was nowhere near as terrifying or fierce as it was now.

According to the assistant’s estimation, the mortality rate for filming a sequel was at least ninety-nine percent.

”Stop trying to persuade me. The digital key for the film ’The Giant Snake Enters the City’ is on this USB drive. Take it to theaters in other cities and play it; you must make this film a hit.”

Jiteng Sanlang solemnly handed a USB drive to his assistant, who took it with trembling hands.

”Hai! Don’t worry, Minister. I will protect it even if it kills me.” The assistant was completely won over by Jiteng Sanlang’s spirit of professional dedication and willingly accepted the heavy responsibility.

”Good.” Jiteng Sanlang patted his assistant’s shoulder heavily, then shouldered his camera and walked out without looking back.

He wanted to follow the Big White Snake’s trail and film an even grander documentary.

...

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Feng finally lost interest in the Water Spirit Body.

With a thought, he returned to his original form.

The surrounding water instantly lost its constraint, surging away in all directions.

But Jiang Feng’s exchanges weren’t over yet.

[Ding! Consumed ten million fear points to exchange for a Beginner Fire Spirit Body.]

As the exchange for the Fire Spirit Body was completed, a sudden heat appeared in Jiang Feng’s body.

Immediately after, he saw that the entire snake had caught fire.

What the hell...

Jiang Feng almost pissed himself in fear. No creature feels fear toward water, so even when he turned into a puddle of water, he didn’t feel any danger.

But toward fire, every creature has an instinctive fear, because fire can burn a snake to death.

When he destroyed the aircraft carrier before, only the surface of his scales was on fire, but this time he was burning from the inside out; how could he not be startled?

Fortunately, after burning for a while, Jiang Feng didn’t feel any discomfort, and he gradually accepted this state.

In the flame state, his body still maintained its original appearance, and his scales were still scales, though they had been burnt red-hot.

In the flame state, Jiang Feng couldn’t change his shape at will; his head couldn’t pass through his body, nor could he curl into a ball.

Jiang Feng didn’t know what his flames were burning; he didn’t feel his body shrinking, as if the combustion didn’t consume energy.

Jiang Feng was no graduate student; he had no desire to investigate things so magical they couldn’t be explained by science.

Wouldn’t it be ridiculous for a snake to talk about science?

Science is only something fools like humans would pursue.

As time passed, Jiang Feng’s fire-snake body roasted the surroundings into charcoal, and steel melted directly.

Good grief, this is incredible.

Looking at the red-hot ground, Jiang Feng was both shocked and beyond excited.

At first, when the Fire Spirit Body couldn’t transform, he thought it was far inferior to the Water Spirit Body.

But now, he didn’t think the Fire Spirit Body was any weaker than the Water Spirit Body at all.

He was now a mobile furnace, burning whoever he saw.

In the Fire Spirit Body state, he was completely immune to fire.

In other words, he could go straight to a volcanic crater and take on the magma head-on.

It’s all fire; who’s the snake afraid of?

Jiang Feng’s fire-snake body illuminated several kilometers around him, like a small sun.

Bringing warmth to people.

Except it wasn’t; everywhere Jiang Feng went became scorched earth.

Burning everything nearby that could be burned, and of course, not letting the people off either.

So, don’t think that seeing light means seeing hope; it could also be the demon Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng crawled toward the mountain; he was going to set the mountain on fire.

Doing all the evil deeds he hadn’t dared to do in his previous life.

The mountain forest was lush and green, in its peak season of growth.

The sudden intrusion of Jiang Feng, this fire snake, instantly brought the trees and grass into autumn, then they withered, and then a raging fire began to spread.

Under the illumination of the firelight, this part of the world was as bright as day.

Someone in the mountain forest let out a shrill scream; those were people who had escaped the city and hidden in the woods.
