They had fewer major stages, but each one took a long time to advance through.
MingYue knew this one was a spirit beast.
It had clear intelligence, but it had not infused any element into its attacks yet.
A beast's cultivation started at the Spirit stage.
After that came the Elemental, Core, Mystic, Divine, and Eternal stages.
Creatures at the Core stage could usually take on a humanoid form.
At the Divine stage they could turn completely into humans.
Then, when they reached Mystic, their beast form was strengthened even further.
But even though this snake was only at the Spirit stage, MingYue could not defeat it easily.
As a beast, its raw strength was higher than a human at the same level.
As a spirit beast, it also had intelligence.
The creature fixed its eyes on MingYue. Just as it was about to retaliate, a bang rang out.
MingYue had already fired the gun in her hand with maximum power.
