Chapter 372: Chapter 82 Snake! Snake! Snake! [2 in 1!]_2 Chapter 372: Chapter 82 Snake! Snake! Snake! [2 in 1!]_2 What a bloody honest truth.

This honesty is as brutal as ever.

A lot of faces instantly turned pale.

Isn’t this just the same as calling us poor?

But those who haven’t bid yet didn’t think so, they were eager to bid; how could it be okay for Master Ling to leave? Just as the old man said, it’s a blessing from heaven. If you don’t treasure it, it’s truly pathetic. What can be made from a petty profit, anyway!

“A bunch of paupers! All get lost for me!”

“If you don’t have money, why be embarrassed?”

“What a disgrace, bidding such a small amount, but wanting to keep a spirit beast, can you afford to keep one?”

“Master Ling, don’t worry, next time, I will double the price! The opportunity given by the master is reserved for me!”

“What do you mean it’s reserved for you, it’s reserved for me, it has to be me!”

“…”

…

In the auction house, a man in black clothing who hadn’t uttered a word from the start, his eyes fixed on Zhu Weiran on stage like a venomous snake, then glancing at the people from Universe Building, feeling an inexplicable atmosphere, his eyes flickering with deep hatred.

After everything was over, the crowd dispersed, and the man in black mingled with the departing crowd, absently licking his lips. If anybody noticed, they would’ve seen that his tongue was forked and exceptionally flexible, effortlessly flicking out and back, unnaturally long…

The man in black gradually vanished with the crowd, as if he had turned into a wisp of fog.

Nighttime.

The small pine tree on the hillside basked in the moonlight, meditating, which was its usual state, unchanging every day.

But tonight, it seemed slightly different from the usual.

Upon sensing this, it couldn’t help but rustle its branches and leaves, beginning to investigate as the land for hundreds of miles around was its territory.

What’s happening?

That was an unusually strong aura of the Demon Beasts, continuously rising and overflowing with an intense smell of blood. It seemed very unusual!

What…what’s going on?

The pine tree activated its divine consciousness, a small root at the top of the mountain responded, climbing up a large tree on the mountain top and coiling its way upward to watch the distant surroundings…

In the faraway distance, a thick black mist rose from within the mountains and forests, and it was just about to cover the whole sky.

The pine tree was startled when it saw this, although its cultivation was deep, its time in the world was short, and it still lacked some experience…

“What’s going on!?”

The pine tree was frozen solid: “Could it be… could it be the legendary… Demon Beasts??”

Demon Beasts are not the same as the mythic beasts!

The beasts are beasts, and the demonic beasts are demonic beasts, the two have intrinsic differences, causing different outcomes.

The black cloud gradually approached, getting closer and closer. The pine tree wanted to uproot itself and flee.

But the black cloud stopped when it was very close to the small hillside, as if waiting for something.

After a moment, from an even farther place, more black smoke surged. It rolled in from three sides, like an endless tide, and it seemed to be brewing, gathering, awaiting,…

The pine tree was already completely numb.

At that moment, it could see what was gathering, and the entire tree began to shake…in fear!

The first reaction of the pine tree was to quickly retract its fine roots, and then passed on the explosive information to the nearest kin that had awakened: “Yuezhou is going to have a Demon Beast outbreak, I saw it, I saw it.”

The ancient tree not far from the hillside had already sensed something wrong. It was shocked and couldn’t believe it when it received this explosive news.

“What’s going on? What demon beasts? The legendary demon beasts?”

“It’s the demon beasts! Snakes! So many snakes!”

The fine roots of pine tree conveying the message were trembling: “There are big ones, as big as a mountain, and there are those that have turned into human form… there are so many! It’s so terrifying!”

“How many is ‘so many’?”

“Just from what I see now… there are definitely tens of millions! And it’s still gathering! Judging by the current situation, when they reach Yuezhou… there will definitely be billions, this is the most conservative estimate…”

If Pine tree was a human, its face would be as pale as a corpse now: “This number is not an exaggeration, I haven’t counted those snakes that are as thick as a human’s thigh… if those even smaller ones are also counted, there will be billions…”

The ancient tree in the distance was startled: “What should we do? Snakes, snakes don’t eat trees, do they?”

“I heard they don’t, but if they keep crawling like this, we’re probably goners, bound to get damaged…”

Once the pine had overcome its initial fear, it felt reassured. After all, it had been favored by Feng Yin multiple times, and its cultivation was far beyond its peers. As long as its roots were intact, the rest was irrelevant.

At the critical moment, it could abandon its trunk and send its roots deep into the ground, which would be harmless.

This was the advantage of having opened spiritual wisdom. As long as the spiritual wisdom wasn’t extinguished and the essence of the main body wasn’t lost, the rest wasn’t essential.

Upon realizing this, the pine tree felt like it had swallowed a pill of tranquility. What if it was the legendary beast, it shouldn’t matter to me!

With this thought, the pine tree had instantly regained its tranquility, and was no longer panicked.
