He quieted his mind, kept his body still, and started to feel carefully.
The surroundings seemed to quieten down, and the world became silent.
Apart from the sound of water, there was nothing else in the world.
Feeling the movement around him, he collected information from all directions.
In this quiet environment, Luo Fan could feel the water flowing.
Yes, this swamp was not stagnant water.
The water here was flowing slowly from one direction,
even though the water flow had already become extremely weak when it reached here.
This seemed to be the end point.
However, with full concentration, Luo Fan continued to sense the direction of the flow.
“Over there is where the water leaves.”
Luo Fan had found the direction of the water flow and thought, “If I follow the water current, I will definitely be able to find the exit.”
In this desperate situation, there seemed to be another hope for survival.
He did not know how long he had stayed in the swamp. It had probably been two or three days.
It would be great if the large snake did not come to eat him.
However, Luo Fan would not return foolishly and deliver himself into the snake’s mouth.
He felt a sense of oppression from the large snake. It was a feeling he had never felt before from any of the creatures he had encountered.
He did not feel such oppression from the big fish at the bottom of that river. It seemed the large snake was much higher than him in the hierarchy of life.
…
Soon after, Luo Fan had determined the direction, and the eight intestines started to move.
His moving speed in water was much slower than on land.
Furthermore, it was very “viscous” here. It was a mixture of water and mud, which further impeded Luo Fan’s advance.
He slowly moved forward and stopped after a while. He continued to sense the direction of the water flow.
Having confirmed the direction again, he continued forward.
With his sense, Luo Fan was indeed not afraid of such a dark environment.
Thus, he continued moving and stopping.
At this moment, something unexpected happened.
When he moved about 30 meters, he suddenly felt the water around him vibrate.
“There are creatures around me, swimming in the water and stirring it.”
Luo Fan instantly stopped in his tracks and slowly extended his whiskers. The waves of the surrounding water were transmitted to his whiskers.
“It’s a fish-type creature about 10 centimeters in length. It should be of a slender form.”
At this moment, he could sense the water being disturbed again. That creature was approaching.
The disturbance in the water flow became greater. The creature seemed to be coming for Luo Fan.
At this moment, just as Luo Fan was planning to attack, the creature suddenly changed its direction.
“It seems to be a cunning fellow that is constantly testing me.”
Luo Fan continued to remain still, and he was in no hurry to attack.
He had to determine the enemy’s location first and deliver a fatal blow.
Currently, he was only able to determine the enemy’s location from the flow of water. He could not move recklessly, otherwise, he would lose his only perception.
“To the right, to the left again. It is swimming upwards…”
An image seemed to have appeared in Luo Fan’s mind. A small snake, almost ten centimeters long, was circling around him and moving constantly in a direction.
“It is here.”
At this moment, the “small snake” attacked.
The “small snake” which had been swimming to the left suddenly changed its direction and shot toward Luo Fan like a bullet.
“I’ve been waiting for you.”
Luo Fan reacted quickly. One of his intestines shot out like a spring which had stored energy for a long time.
With a crack, his claw grabbed the “small snake” and pinched it.
“Got you.”
Luo Fan smiled in his heart. At the same time, he was very satisfied with his sensing ability.
Luo Fan grabbed the creature that swam around and attacked him.
Actually, Luo Fan was also very gloomy. Was he really that harmless?
Even such a weak creature dared to challenge him.
It really did not know how the word ‘death’ was spelled.
Perhaps this was the inherent nature of this creature. It did not know how high the sky was.
Soon after, he started to sense it.
His claw groped the creature thoroughly. He wanted to use this method to determine what he had caught.
“It’s not too different from my judgment. It’s a snake-type creature, but there are no scales on its body.”
“This should be an eel or a loach.”
Suddenly, this fish bit down on Luo Fan’s claw, but it did not cause any harm to him.
“It has teeth, and they are very sharp. It doesn’t look like an eel or loach… Instead, it looks like a scaleless snake.”
Then, Luo Fan crushed the scaleless small snake to death and swallowed all of it into his intestine, leaving not even a trace behind.
In less than five minutes, the small snake would be almost completely digested by this intestine.
After killing the small snake, Luo Fan began to calm down and carefully understand the direction of the water flow.
After having confirmed the direction again, he proceeded in that direction.
…
He moved forward for a while, following his senses.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a huge obstacle in front of him.
The water began to part in front and then collided when it flowed over.
Luo Fan had sensed the fluctuation in the water flow.
His intelligence instantly analyzed the situation there and calculated that the object in front was the shape of a large body.
This was how senses worked. From the flow of water, they could analyze the surroundings.
Luo Fan stopped in front of the obstacle and gently placed his intestines on it.
It was the feel of food.
This was a carcass that had not completely decomposed. It was submerged at the bottom of the swamp.
And the carcass was huge, like a bull.
Luo Fan’s intestines touched gently, and he felt the residual flesh on it. There was still a lot left.
The claws tore at it, slowly tearing it and sending it into his own intestines.
After absorbing for a while, he suddenly realized that there was quite a lot of bio-energy in this creature.
Then, Luo Fan plucked the flesh again from the carcass and fused it into his body.
As he absorbed the flesh, the bio-energy slowly increased.
He was like an abyss cleaner cleaning up the filth that had washed down from the mortal world.
In this place where light could not even enter, he was gnawing on this carcass.
No living being could see this and know this.
Luo Fan took some time to finish gnawing the carcass.
In the end, he extracted almost 8 grams of bio-energy, and this was even after the creature had already rotted beyond recognition.

There would definitely be much more bio-energy in the intact body of creatures.
The bio-energy was used by Luo Fan to upgrade his spiked tails. They were his only weapons.
He had stored the energy and matter to bulge the storage cells, which had already become somewhat dry and flattened.
Luo Fan kept moving, heading in the direction the water was flowing.
That might be his way out..
