Ever since he came out of the Sword Emperor's Tomb, the Black Beast Tattoo had been quiet, not causing any trouble, to the point that Shen Hao had lowered his guard against it.
But this time it suddenly came out of nowhere, really scaring Shen Hao half to death.
The Black Beast Tattoo had always been a rather passive "eater," only reacting when "food" was brought right to its mouth, never had it shown an urge to actively "hunt for food" like now.
This was truly terrifying.
The "food" for the Black Beast Tattoo was always energy related to souls. Aside from things like Evil Cultivators making Yin Tofu, there was also the method of killing people and extracting souls. In the past, it was during fights—if he killed someone, then letting the Black Beast Tattoo devour them wasn't exactly a waste, and Shen Hao could just about accept that. But actively going out to hunt and kill for souls by choice was fundamentally different, and carried huge risks.
