Slowly, more and more white appeared under the scales of the Ghost-Eyed Python, and its movements became increasingly sluggish. It wasn't long before it completely stopped moving.

While tending to his own injuries, Chen Guan waited for the Ghost-Eyed Python to complete its upgrade and awakening.

The Ghost-Eyed Python awakening now meant that Chen Guan lost a usable pet, and he would have to wait until his own Second Awakening before he could summon the Ghost-Eyed Python again.

"This is bad." Jiang Qiemo suddenly ran up to Chen Guan, looking him up and down with a very serious expression.

"What's wrong?" Chen Guan asked in confusion.

"You killed the Good and Evil Asura yourself, not letting Black Impermanence do the job. I'm afraid you might be cursed. When you killed him, was he in Evil Asura state or Good Asura state?" Jiang Qiemo asked.

"I can't tell. It seemed like a compound state." Chen Guan sighed helplessly. He had considered letting Black Impermanence handle it, but in that situation, there was no chance to swap pets to complete the final blow. In fact, Chen Guan himself didn't even know which strike was the final blow that killed the Good and Evil Asura.

Besides, with Black Impermanence's destructive power, it probably couldn't even break through the Good and Evil Asura's defenses considering it was only level 10.

"Do you feel anything now?" Jiang Qiemo asked worriedly while looking at Chen Guan.

"Nothing yet." Chen Guan smiled, "It's no big deal. At worst, I'll treat sleeping like watching a horror movie for relaxation. It's not a big deal even if I don't trigger the Secret Skill Core and pets."

Jiang Qiemo felt more guilty the more he listened and sighed, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't dragged you back, you wouldn't have suffered this calamity. If you really are cursed and your fortune declines, I'll take care of all your Secret Skills and pets in the future."

"It's not that serious. Even if I can't trigger anything, I can just leave the finishing blow to others and wait for the share. It's not as scary as you think. Besides, I don't feel anything wrong now, so I might not be cursed."

Chen Guan didn't want to continue the topic, so he switched to, "What's the origin of that sword-shaped pet of yours? It looks really powerful."

Jiang Qiemo replied, "It's the Blinking Divine Sword I've raised by my side since I was a child, given to me by my great ancestor. It's a bit special. Though it's my pet, none of its attribute and ability information can be seen, so I don't know its origin either."

"I raised a local dog as a pet when I was young, and others raised a Blinking Divine Sword as a pet. Why is there such a big difference between people?" Chen Guan didn't ask how Jiang Qiemo could raise a Secret Spirit before awakening. Such secrets, more often than not, aren't shared, so why bother asking?

Chen Guan even suspected that the Blinking Divine Sword might be a Secret God Level pet, just like his paperman, which also has many unknown abilities and very limited visible information.

"Chen Guan, during the final battle, did you enter the One Thought Ghost God state?" Jiang Qiemo asked, staring at Chen Guan.

"Yes, you comprehended it too, right?" Chen Guan admitted on the spot. It was Jiang Qiemo's original creation, and he could see it at a glance. There was no denying it.

Chen Guan guessed that the reason Jiang Qiemo could comprehend the One Thought Ghost God state at that time was that he thought he was dead, which added certain emotions, activating the Spirit of the Cheerleaders and recording that state in the archives.

Though Chen Guan thought it would be more reasonable if Jiang Qiemo comprehended the One Thought Ghost God state out of a desire to survive or defeat the Good and Evil Asura,

if that were the case, it wouldn't have much to do with him, Chen Guan. How could it activate the Spirit of the Cheerleaders?

"Can you try now to see if you can enter that state?" Jiang Qiemo now tried again to enter the One Thought Ghost God state but couldn't get in no matter what.

Chen Guan pretended to try, then his face changed slightly, and he said with a wry smile, "I can't get in. That state is so mysterious. It's like the mind broke through a certain critical point, and the whole person is in a dreamlike state. It's probably a supernormal state that's hard to control at will."

Before Jiang Qiemo continued, Chen Guan said, "I entered that state out of a strong desire to survive. How did you enter it?"

Jiang Qiemo pondered for a moment after hearing this and said, "At that time, I thought you were dead. If it weren't for me insisting on dragging you to kill the Good and Evil Asura, you wouldn't have just died like that. For a moment, I felt heavily blocked inside. If I didn't do something, my Dao heart might crumble, and then I suddenly entered the One Thought Ghost God state..."

Chen Guan felt depressed, "Turns out it was my death that inspired him. Who knew you could motivate others like that without using words of praise."

This method was practical, but Chen Guan thought it would be more grounded to praise others a bit. He didn't want to risk his life to inspire others.

"That's terrible. I can't die every time just so you can enter the One Thought Ghost God state," Chen Guan said with a smile.

Jiang Qiemo laughed too, hearing this, "No need for that. I can research on my own. There should be other ways to enter the One Thought Ghost God state again. Let's make a bet: who can first autonomously control the One Thought Ghost God state."

Now, Jiang Qiemo no longer had the idea of fighting Chen Guan. He felt that he had already seen all of Chen Guan's abilities in this battle, and fighting again would be meaningless. A different, more meaningful way of competing was preferable.

Chen Guan was naturally more than willing to accept such a proposal from Jiang Qiemo, as he didn't want to fight him.

The two continued to chat about Secret Skills and Secret Techniques. With Jiang Qiemo, he discussed only technical issues, and luckily Chen Guan knew a bit; otherwise, he wouldn't have known how to converse.

It was a good thing that their conversation didn't last long before the Ghost-Eyed Python completed its Second Awakening, crawling out from its massive snake shedding.

The new scales were slightly deeper in color, still a purplish-gray, like imperial violet agate, looking even more profound than before and possessing a mysterious haze. When it was still, it resembled a crystal-clear jade sculpture.

Additionally, the eyes of the Ghost-Eyed Python had undergone some peculiar changes.

The Ghost-Eyed Python's two serpent eyes; one had turned blacker than graphite, while the other looked like an icy jade crystal, as if carved from stone.

As soon as the transformation completed, the Ghost-Eyed Python transformed into particles and returned to Chen Guan's body, unable to be summoned again.

Emperor Vein Ghost-Eyed Python (Unparalleled): Level 11 Spirit Pet.

Double Dragon Emperor Ghost Qi: 20.9.

Growth Rate: 1.99.

Lifebound Talent: Dragon Emperor Bloodline (Unparalleled).

Secret Technique: "Abnormal Evolution Technique" (Unparalleled)

Secret Skill: Eye of the Ghost God (Unparalleled), Twin Dragon Eyes (Unparalleled).

Secret Treasure: None.

Chen Guan was delighted to see that in the Second Awakening of the Emperor Vein Ghost-Eyed Python, it had actually comprehended a Secret Skill. Not all pets can comprehend a Secret Skill during a Second Awakening, making it a rare occurrence.
