Chapter 108: A Single Rib
Beyond the small door, there were many exhibits.
Master Yin Yin enthusiastically introduced them to Li Fan, “This is a bone from the Vedic Fish. This species went extinct three thousand five hundred years ago. It took quite an effort to collect this bone. It is said that the Vedic Fish was exceptionally intelligent and could mimic human speech. Eating its flesh allowed people to understand the language of fish. Who knows if that’s true.”
They continued to a gigantic serpent that was lifelike, winding and stretching for over a kilometer.
Master Yin Yin excitedly said, “This is a Cong Yun Sea Serpent. Normally, they hide in the deep sea, burying themselves in the soil. I had to run across a large part of the Cong Yun Sea to catch one this long! Preparing it as a specimen was no small feat.”
Then, Master Yin Yin spoke mysteriously, “Based on my research, these sea serpents are not the true body. They harbor a mysterious parasitic creature inside them, a minuscule parasite that is extremely hard to detect, even by Foundation Establishment stage mental power. However, it’s this tiny parasite that controls the gigantic sea serpent! It’s truly unimaginable!”
...
As they moved forward, the wide array of exhibits widened Li Fan’s horizons.
Both of them stopped in front of two human skeletons placed side by side.
Master Yin Yin pointed to the two skeletons and asked with a hint of pride, “Fellow Daoist, do you notice anything different about these two human skeletons?”
