After two months of recovery, Iris' leg injury is almost healed. Although the scars have fallen off, faint traces still remain.

During these two months, Iris relied solely on the corpses of magical beasts to survive.

The combination of blood and flesh from the corpses was extremely disgusting and even made her nauseous. But in order to stay alive, she couldn't afford to be picky.

During this time, Iris could feel changes in her body. It seemed that her chest was slightly protruding, though not very noticeable, but the change was faintly there.

Iris looked tired. Since falling down the cliff, she hadn't had a proper rest. The main reason was that there were magical beasts everywhere, and she was always on guard against being devoured by an unknown beast while asleep.

Now that Iris' legs have recovered, she can explore this area and find an exit.

Iris carefully took steps, slowly groping her way forward.

After walking for a while, Iris suddenly noticed a large amount of scattered meat on the ground in the distance. Some of the meat still had traces of blood, indicating that a great battle had taken place.

Looking at the scattered corpses, Iris' pupils contracted slightly, showing a serious expression on her face.

She knew that these were definitely the remains of a battle with magical beasts, and the beasts must have been very fierce to have used their claws to crush the bones and tear them apart into pieces. From the looks of it, it must have been a super powerful magical beast.

"No wonder there have been constant roars in the recent past. It turns out that a battle happened here," Iris murmured to herself, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

She looked around and found no movement before cautiously walking towards the scattered meat.

The meat was not yet rotten, and without hesitation, Iris took a bite and chewed and swallowed.

"Ugh... so bloody," Iris stuck out her tongue and furrowed her brow.

She could feel the immense power contained in the blood of this meat, even purer than the blood of a vampire.

"What kind of magical beasts are these? To have such beasts here, it's really strange," Iris frowned and pondered, then continued walking.

After another hour, she saw a huge magical beast corpse lying on the ground ahead. In the abdomen of the corpse, there was a black and white heart beating violently, surrounded by countless lightning bolts writhing around it like small snakes.

"The magical beast is dead, but its heart is still beating, and it's surrounded by immense lightning," Iris squinted her beautiful eyes, looking at the heart in the belly of the magical beast. She secretly thought, "If I can use the lightning on the heart to destroy the collar on my neck, maybe I can regain my magical powers."

With this in mind, a hint of joy appeared in Iris' eyes.

Just at that moment, a black magical beast suddenly appeared. Its body was sturdy and covered in scales. It walked towards Iris.

"Roar..." The magical beast let out a roar, its voice full of ferocity. The green light in its eyes flickered with a coldness.

Seeing the magical beast, Iris quickly evaded. She didn't want to provoke such a beast because even if she regained her power, she still wouldn't be a match for any magical beast here.

After devouring the heart, the black magical beast turned and left.

After the magical beast left, Iris finally breathed a sigh of relief. In her heart, she thought, "Luckily I avoided in time, otherwise that magical beast would've been my end."

Although Iris felt relieved in her heart, she didn't show any hint of joy on her face.

There were unidentified magical beasts everywhere here, and danger could happen at any moment. Therefore, Iris didn't dare to let her guard down even a little bit.

However, she didn't give up and continued searching in the vicinity.

For several days, Iris wandered around, searching for a way to remove her collar, but she had not found anything yet.

On this night, while Iris was lying on the ground resting, a cold gust of wind blew, messing up her hair.

At that moment, Iris suddenly opened her eyes and looked around, only to see a giant python within her sight.

The python was pitch black, with an extremely thick body. It had horns on its head, and its red snake eyes emitted a captivating light.

The tail of the python was very long, dragging countless black long hairs beside it. The long hairs appeared semi-transparent, emitting an eerie and faint glow, making people feel terrified.

Suddenly, the black python rushed towards Iris at lightning speed, as fast as a galloping horse.

The black python passed by Iris directly, smashing through the wall and engaging in a battle with the centipede behind the wall.

Due to the surprise attack, the black python quickly gained the upper hand, roaring from time to time. The sound carried a strong sense of anger and hatred, like a vengeful woman.

Seeing this, Iris quickly stood up and ran away as fast as she could.

The fight between the two monsters caused half of the surrounding rocky mountains to collapse instantly, with cracks crisscrossing the ground like a spiderweb, leaving Iris in a state of constant fear.

However, at this moment, Iris had no time to worry about her surroundings. She knew that these two monsters had gone into a frenzy, and if she didn't escape soon, she would likely be affected.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Huge boulders continuously shattered and scattered in all directions.

As Iris ran, she scolded, "They're just fighting, is it really necessary to make such a spectacle of it?"

A boulder whizzed by, and Iris quickly dodged to the side. But the boulder grazed her shoulder and left a bloody wound.

Seeing this scene, Iris turned pale with fright and sat on the ground, looking at the ongoing battle between the python and the centipede in the distance, her heart still trembling.

"Phew... that was close..." Iris gasped heavily, realizing just how dangerous it had been.

"It's a good thing that the black python didn't attack me, otherwise it could have swallowed me whole." Iris thought about the situation just now, feeling lingering fear.

Perhaps in the eyes of the black python, Iris was nothing more than a non-flying sparrow, like an ant in the eyes of humans, not worth mentioning at all.

The battle between the black python and the centipede in the distance was still ongoing. They tore at each other, colliding constantly. Each collision created a powerful energy wave that shattered everything around them.

"Bang..."

The sound of a heavy blow rang out.

The tail of the black python heavily whipped the centipede's head, and the tremendous force caused the centipede's head to explode.

The headless centipede's body fell to the ground, with blood and brain matter flowing everywhere.

The black python pounced directly, swallowed the centipede's head, chewed on it a few times, then spat it out. It then extracted the centipede's heart and swallowed it, before devouring the flesh and blood.

The centipede's flesh and blood were extremely precious and difficult to obtain. The black python ate everything, leaving no bones behind, and its stomach swelled up.

The head of the black python grew a horn, and its body underwent a transformation. More scales appeared on its body, giving off a frosty gleam, as if made of ice, looking extremely hard and sturdy.

Gradually, the black python grew forelimbs, with sharp claws that were as sharp as daggers, easily capable of piercing through a human body.

Seeing the transformation of the black python, Iris couldn't help but gasp.

"Oh my god, what is this? It actually transformed into this." Iris was dumbfounded, her eyes filled with a disbelief that she had never expected a snake to grow forelimbs.

This scene left Iris deeply shocked.

After completing its transformation, the black python stared at Iris with its snake eyes. With its mouth wide open, it let out a sharp scream.

Immediately, it slowly crawled towards Iris, who was scared and turned to run away. However, at this moment, the black python did not pursue Iris. It directly burrowed into the ground. Perhaps this was the wicked sense of humor that belonged to the monsters.

After running for a long time, Iris finally stopped and turned around to look at the spot where the black python disappeared. She kept patting her chest, feeling a wave of palpitations.

Iris took a deep breath and couldn't help but feel relieved, "It's a good thing the black python didn't catch up."

"When monsters eat hearts, they are evolving. If I could eat a heart, who knows, I might also grow wings or something." Iris muttered, her eyes swirling around, thinking, "If Bai Zhan ate the centipede's heart, would it also grow forelimbs, or even wings? In that case, the attacking methods of Bai Zhan the python would become more diverse, and it would also be able to defy the aerial monsters."

At the thought of this, Iris couldn't help but be extremely excited, and a wave of anticipation rose in her heart.

Just at that moment, a monstrous creature with fangs and sharp teeth descended from the sky, pouncing towards Iris, opening its bloody mouth, revealing a row of sharp teeth.

Seeing this, Iris was startled and quickly dodged, her body tumbling in the air, avoiding the monster's attack, and then turning around and running away.

However, her speed couldn't compare to that of the monster. It didn't take long for the monster to catch up to Iris.

The monster's huge tail swung down, instantly raising a cloud of dust, leaving a deep trench on the ground.

With a "swish," the monster's claws tore through the ground, like steel blades, reaching towards Iris' back. Its sharp claws seemed able to pierce through anything.

Feeling the fierce momentum coming from behind, Iris' heart pounded in fear. She quickly turned her head to see the monster's claws getting closer and closer to her. She desperately ran away and saw a slope ahead. She quickly jumped down and then spread her blood wings, flapping her little wings with all her might.

Although Iris' blood wings were too small to fly, gliding with the help of the wings was still possible.

During the glide, Iris used her blood wings to flap against the ground, reducing her descent speed.

She accidentally fell to the ground, but it wasn't a big problem, just a scrape on her hand.

The monstrous creature with fangs and sharp teeth looked down from above, emitting a resentful roar.

"Roar..."

"Roar..."

"Fuck you! If you have the guts, come down!" Iris raised her head and shouted at the monster, then flipped it off, provoking the creature.

Upon hearing Iris' words, the monster angrily snarled a few times, but did not attack again, as if it was afraid of something.
