Almost without thinking, its eyes glinting green, the dog pounced on the frog, biting it in half.
A tingling sensation spread from its tongue.
Only then did the Ancestor of the Blood Sea realize that the frog he had bitten was poisonous!
Frantically, he scrambled to the stream, drinking water to rinse his mouth.
Once the tingling subsided, his body was nearly exhausted, devoid of any strength after the ordeal.
To survive, the Ancestor came to the damp soil by the stream and started digging with his paws.
Soon, a fat earthworm appeared in front of him.
Without much hesitation, the Ancestor swallowed the earthworm.
The taste was slimy and filthy, even with soil entering his stomach, but at that moment, the Ancestor found the earthworm as delicious as the finest delicacy.
The earthworm replenished some energy, and he continued digging and eating earthworms to replenish his depleted vitality.
