Leisurely Farm Life in Beast World-Chapter 1497 - 1494: Lend Me a Hand

"Is this the legendary Black Quicksand?" Ya Li looked at the vast black river before him, utterly overwhelmed by its grandeur. Truly, the world is vast and full of wonders.

"Transform into a serpent and give it a try. Last time, the serpent we encountered could swim on the Black Quicksand without sinking."

Ya Li’s eyes lit up: "So that’s why the Shaman wanted me here, huh? Hehe."

With that said, he removed his clothes and put them in his backpack, wearing only a short skirt made from his own shed snake skin. Then, he transformed into a beast form and leisurely swam towards the Black Quicksand.

"If you see me starting to sink, make sure to pull me up." This certain serpent truly kept his own safety in mind at all times.

Xiu Yan glanced at him disdainfully: "Are you going to move on your own, or should I throw you?"

Tsk~ How the Shaman puts up with this sarcastic beast is beyond me.

The certain serpent gently placed a section of his tail on the Black Quicksand first. Surprisingly, a faint buoyancy rose from beneath his tail.

Feeling reassured, Ya Li wiggled his entire serpent body onto the surface and started swimming.

Xiu Yan recalled the last time they crawled across the Black Quicksand. Now, watching this leisurely, dark serpent beast, he suddenly thought it might be useful to bring him along on future outings.

"See that small island up ahead? You and I will take it as a boundary. I’ll search downwards, and you search upwards. If there’s any trouble, head towards each other."

Xiu Yan pointed to the small island where they had previously rested while traversing the Black Quicksand.

Ya Li nodded, didn’t waste any words, waved his hand, and headed upwards.

The scorching sun beat down on the Black Quicksand, raising its surface temperature significantly.

"Found anything?" Ya Li lay sprawled in the tent like a dead dog, panting heavily.

A look of confusion also crossed Xiu Yan’s usually cold face: "I haven’t found anything on my side either."

The temperature within the Black Quicksand is so high that it can burn at noon. Under such conditions, what kind of snake beast could live here?

As a proud fifth-level evolved Orc, even his thick snake skin couldn’t withstand it. Could there be something with even thicker skin than his?

Soon enough, the question was answered. As the two beasts were resting, the sound of a snake beast slithering came from the desert outside the tent. Given that Ya Li, the serpent, was present, they were intimately familiar with this sound.

"Could it be the leader of those snakes from last night seeking revenge?" Ya Li sat up, considering the sound didn’t seem like it could come from a small snake beast.

Xiu Yan’s eyes flashed sharply: "Let’s go out and take a look."

The two beasts exchanged a glance and swiftly slipped out of the tent.

"Damn, this guy’s size is almost as big as mine!" Ya Li exclaimed in shock at his first sight of the snake beast outside the tent.

Sure, he’s large because he’s an evolved Orc, but what about this snake beast?

"Hey buddy, which Tribe are you from?" Ya Li took a small step towards the snake beast and inquired slyly.

The snake beast’s pale yellow eyes instantly locked onto him, but it didn’t utter Beast Language or Orc language; instead, it hissed in the language of snake beasts.

"This isn’t an Orc, it’s a snake beast."

"Could it be the black snake from Black Quicksand?"
