Chapter 189 - 182: Poisoning the Black Serpent (3/5)
"Elders, dragging this on isn’t a solution!" the Lu Family’s Old Ancestor said, his eyes fixed on the Black Serpent; facing such a formidable Demon Beast, he naturally dared not allow his attention to waver.
Hiss!
The Black Serpent flicked its tongue; it couldn’t understand human language, but starting from the Spirit Gathering Realm, Demon Beasts began to possess rudimentary intelligence, and as they advanced in realms, their intelligence would increase progressively. There were legends of fox spirits transforming into human form to bewitch all beings. This was actually fox-shaped Demon Beasts releasing an aura that clouded Divine Sense, causing people to mistake them for beautiful women.
However, this also showed to what extent a Demon Beast’s intelligence could evolve!
In terms of individual strength, humans were actually at a disadvantage compared to Demon Beasts. What gave humans an edge was their intelligence, hence the saying that humans are the smartest of all creatures. Should Demon Beasts possess intelligence, it would be nothing short of a disaster for humanity!
Fortunately, the higher the realm, the more important Spiritual Power becomes, and the proportion of physical strength diminishes even further, otherwise, what could humans use to combat Demon Beasts with ever-increasing intelligence as they elevated their realms?
The Black Serpent could instinctively sense the malice from these four humans. It angrily flicked its tongue, issuing a strong warning for them to leave its territory. Had it not known that these four were incredibly powerful, it would have long since attacked them with a flurry, devouring them clean.
The flesh and blood of Martial Artists had a strong attraction for Demon Beasts; the higher the realm, the more "fragrant" the flesh.
"Release your ultimate moves and breakthrough!" the Zhao Family’s Old Ancestor said in a deep voice.
"Understood!"
