Chapter 215: Flood dragon bone wine ready
Showing clear intelligence despite quivering with rage, the snake's eyes clearly saw the single seed of Yin Lotus in the middle of the group, the rest of the seeds and flower, however, was nowhere to be seen.
This meant that it had been tricked!
Hissing with even more rage than when it realized its most sacred treasure had been stolen, the huge snake figured out that it could no longer track where its prized Yin Lotus was at.
This time when the snake hissed the sound travelled so far that almost everyone inside the Treasure Land of Yin could hear it.
Also, just the sound itself was enough to make many of the weak-hearted ones faint right away.
After all, there was a terrifying coldness associated with the sound of the hissing.
But, if those far away felt like that, what about the unlucky group who were used by Bai Long as scapegoat for his escape?
There were no longer any words which could be used to describe how they felt.
At first, they were just scared and wanted to try and escape as quickly as possible, but along with the passage of time they no longer had any hope about escaping with their lives intact.
Even if the scary snake didn't swallow them whole, all of them felt like just the memory of seeing this angry snake was enough to kill them in their sleep.
Unfortunately, the snake had no intention to let the humans live and find out if its memory was enough to kill them.
So what if they were scapegoats being used by the real mastermind to escape? All it wanted was to release its anger, and this group would be the first of the many it would swallow to ease the feeling of sadness and rage from losing its Yin Lotus.
And given how much it valued the Yin Lotus which it planned to consume very soon, the number of humans it would swallow was definitely going to be a lot.
Also, it was only now that the snake realized how the humans in front of it were overflowing with Yin energy.
Though it wasn't on the same level as the Yin Lotus, given how many humans entered this place once in a while, they were bound to be so many that a single Yin Lotus was now starting to sound like something only a weak beast would use.
Understanding this which the others beasts wouldn't do so for quite a lot of time, the snake other than praising its intelligence now had zero rage and only greed in its eyes.
Eyeing the humans like the most savoury piece of meat in the world, the snake seemingly smiled as it's forked tongue moved in and out of its mouth.
Moving its huge head near the group of humans, the snake stretched it's tongue and licked the face of one of the humans who was frozen with fear.
It didn't do this because it was in a mood to play around, but rather because it wanted to take the time to enjoy its future meal.
And by doing so it managed to make the person think that it was a friendly snake for a single second before it stretched its mouth wide and swallowed the human whole.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
Seeing this, the woman who looked like the now-dead male's companion screamed in fear while the uncaring snake had a pleasant expression on its face due to how tasty it found the human.
Even though it had swallowed the human in an instant, the snake found it very delicious. After all, the way it enjoyed eating something was by absorbing the Yin energy inside them.
Maintaining the same expression for a lot of time on its face, the snake finally showed a different expression when one of the still alive humans in the group chose to try and run away.
Hissing angrily towards the humans it was considering as its meal trying to escape, the snake once again swallowed the next one as a whole before taking hold of the remaining by wrapping them with its tail and dragging them up its mountain.
This marked the beginning of the beasts which always stayed dormant hunting the humans who entered the Treasure Land of Yin while they kept on escaping while debating whether they should stay and try to obtain benefits while bearing with the danger or leave the Treasure Land of Yin and guarantee their survival.
...
Bai Long himself however didn't care in the slightest about what he had set into motion and kept on running for a while longer before flying to the mountain he had taken as his residence.
This was where he quickly finished all of the preparations needed to finish the flood dragon bone wine and sealed the gourd to let the wine get ready.
After that, Bai Long no longer went around to search for herbs or hunt for food and instead stayed inside the cave where he kept on cultivating the entire time.
After all, he had more than enough meat to live for many years right there with him.
Also, Bai Long didn't want to risk someone or something stealing his flood dragon bone wine when he left the mountain.
Like this, Bai Long spent almost six months inside the cave when the flood dragon bone wine was finally ready and the time to remove the cork placed on the gourd arrived.
Gulping while thinking about how tasty the wine would be, Bai Long whose cultivation had was now around 85% of the Qi Saint Realm flicked at the part of cork which was out of the gourd with his finger to make it fly away while creating a pop sound.
This was also when Bai Long flew upwards to see inside the mini house-sized gourd which contained the entirety of the wine he had brewed.
What caught Bai Long's eyes immediately after he did so, other than the blue mist which flew out of it was the Yin Lotus petals and seeds floating inside it which had replicated the shape of the flower inside the gourd.
