Reborn as a Lizard: Evolve! Cultivate! Become a Dragon!

This was an unfamiliar woodland. Not far away was a huge swamp, covered with green grass and dotted with a few sparse small trees. A group of water birds were feeding in it. The fire in the distance obviously had no impact on the creatures here. All the animals were in order and busy with their own everyday lives. It felt like a different world.

Brandon Drake decided to settle here because the original place was no longer suitable for survival. After the fire, it would be ashes.

First he had to find a perfect place to build a cave. This collapse accident had taught Brandon Drake enough lessons.

He was alert to the surroundings and slowly crawled forward. Although Brandon is now very powerful, the mystery of the jungle still prevents him from being careless. Who knows how many secrets there might be in this jungle.

At least Brandon was still afraid of poison. Slowly retreating, avoiding a fist-sized rattlesnake, he came to a slope. The vegetation there seemed a bit sparse. Brandon Drake gradually walked to the halfway point of the slope.

With his scouting eyes, he quickly discovered that a cave was looming behind a large tree with entangled vines. The dense branches and leaves covered the cave, making it difficult to find. If it weren't for Brandon's keen observation, the cave would have almost been ignored. Brandon Drake walked forward carefully and used his paws to push aside the branches.

He made some noise on purpose and then hid on the outside of the hole to see what animals were inside. After a while, a black bear crawled out.

This bear was not very big, just the size of a domestic pig. It was obviously a black bear. The black bear walked out of the cave, looking very confused. Its round body appeared to be very explosive.

Before the black bear could react, Brandon's huge tail whipped it hard, and with a bang, the black bear staggered.

The black bear was obviously a powerful creature. It immediately stood up again. Except for a bloody mouth, it was completely fine. The black bear roared angrily, stood upright, and rushed towards Brandon.

A huge bear paw slapped him. But Brandon ducked slightly, his tail whipped out again with a banging sound.

The black bear was whipped with great force and the tail whipped it again and again. Sitting on the ground with a buttocks, a look of fear arose on his face. Brandon Drake didn't wait for it to react, following his whipping attacks up, be bit its neck, and scratched its belly with sharp claws. After a few scratches, its belly was torn open, and the smelly intestines burst out. It all flowed out. Brandon almost gagged at that sweetish odour of blood.

The black bear was in pain, and used its paws to attack Brandon's back crazily. Brandon quickly held back. Gradually, the black bear's attacks became weaker and weaker, and after a while it stopped moving.

Brandon stood up and dragged the black bear's body. He dug a hole outside and buried the bloody and smelly internal organs. This would avoid predators following due to the smell of blood. Now that Brandon Drake had been injured, he didn't want to take on any more powerful enemies.

He looked at the passage that extended slightly downwards. This passage was all made of limestone. It became more spacious as he went inside. It was obviously natural, but the unique odor left by black bear made him feel very uncomfortable. Brandon calculated that it would take several days for the smell to be completely eliminated.

He continued to move forward leaning on the cave wall. After walking a short distance, there were gradually more pebbles under his feet.

After turning a corner, Brandon Drake suddenly discovered that there were pools in front of him, about five meters wide from left to right and one meter in length.

Even at this depth, the water is clear and still, reflecting the shimmering light from the cave ceiling. Brandon Drake guessed that it should be connected to an underground river, otherwise it would not be so clear.

There were strange stalactite pillars hanging upside down from the ceiling of the cave, dripping crystal liquid and falling on the pool. It was clear and round, like the sound of jade. These stalactites varied in size and shape. Some stalactites shimmered slightly, and he didn’t know what kind of stone they were.

After crossing the pool, there was a hall where the black bear's den was, and a foul smell came from there.

This cave is really a good place. Compared with the hole I used to live in, it is completely different... Brandon Drake thought to himself, the one before was really a doghouse, but now he was in a villa with a swimming pool, for bears to live in, it was like a pearl in the dark, flowers stuck in cow dung.

After spending ten minutes and hastily cleaning up, Brandon Drake began to heal his injuries. Being slapped seven or eight times by the black bear's paw was no joke.

I feel like my back is burning and hurting more and more. It is possible that I have suffered internal bleeding from the beating. Brandon lied quietly on the ground, his internal force running over and over again.

The pure internal qi penetrated into the damaged body through the meridians. If someone had a microscope, they could clearly see the damaged capillaries quickly healing and becoming tougher. Internal force entered the cell body through the damaged cell membrane, and the cells were slowly healing, becoming more energetic.

Brandon opened his eyes and joy flashed across his eyes. Unknowingly, Brandon Drake's golden bell had reached the middle of the second level. It seems that frequent injuries can indeed promote the improvement of internal strength.

Brandon walked outside and found that it was almost evening. Outside the cave that Brandon currently occupied was a sparse forest land. Of course, this sparseness was relative.

The cave was located in the middle of the entire slope. Below was a steeply descending hillside. Various plants also grew on the slopes. In this jungle, as long as there was land, whether it be a hill or a plain, there was almost no place where plants did not grow.

The jungle’s law of survival of the fittest was even more bloody in this jungle. Down the hillside was a swamp of dozens of hectares, which was also a place where animals in the jungle would drink water or hunt.

Brandon climbed up a taller tree. From a distance, the sky was still red. Fortunately, it didn't burn towards this side.

Brandon Drake hissed toward the sky. After a while, a green shadow passed through the sky and landed on his shoulder with a whoosh.

Brandon Drake and Skyler, neither of them spoke. They looked at the red sky quietly. The sun had already set. The sunset glow in the sky and the crimson light of the forest complemented each other, making it look ominously beautiful!
