Python (long) is a real dragon born of Zhenlong. According to legend, every dragon born must undergo 4 transformations: Python (long); Jiaolong; Chilong; Quilong; Ying long
Appearance:
Their appearance is often depicted as a large snake, often with a crested head, or small horns.
Personality:
There is no description of the properties of pythons (long). however, in my personal opinion, they have the same personality as a human child: mischievous, hyperactive and curious. Because they are a highly intelligent being, they will not have the wild, dangerous characteristics of an ordinary snake.
Intelligence:
Their minds are not open yet. Their intelligence equivalent to that of human children.
Interactions:
Most will live on the bottom of rivers or seas where they feel safe. Rarely appear and interact with humans.
Legend:
According to legend, a python (long) keeps living five hundred years in the water then turns into a Jiaolong. Jiaolong continues living in water for a thousand years then turns into Chilong, the hornless dragon. Five hundred years a Chilong grows horns and turns into a Qiulong. When Qiulong lives for another 1000 years, it grows wings and turns in Ying long.
Python (long) in appearance is almost indistinguishable from python, they are shaped like a giant snake, so their name also has no distinction. The only thing that differentiates them is their bloodline. While pythons are large snake-like creatures with a bit of dragon blood in them, Python (long) is a real dragon born of only a true dragon (a dragon itself can give birth without another partner) or by two true dragons. However, dragons of this time were not called dragons. Because they live in the water, they are now called python or water snakes. After many years of living, these Pythons (longs) will molt themselves and evolve into true dragons.
