Regardless of how Shang Lin felt, he was truly exhausted, so he said, "Can we go back and rest now? I'm so tired!"
Situ Pojun immediately said, "Go back and rest. I'll stay and keep watch for a while longer."
"Okay then, call me if anything comes up."
Shang Lin was talking and walking, completely unaware of Situ Pojun's somewhat complicated expression, and naturally had no idea how Situ Pojun was internally criticizing him.
Situ Pojun chirped silently, "They're all into metaphysics, why rely on science? And making phone calls? When something happens, is there even time to make a phone call? I'm afraid there won't even be a signal. I really don't know what Shang Lin was thinking?"
But then he remembered that Shang Lin had used his phone when they called for reinforcements, so Situ Pojun stopped complaining. But…
Wait a minute, how did the servant that Shang Lin summoned with his phone suddenly appear beside him? It couldn't have just stayed invisible and followed him around forever, could it?
If that were true, I should be able to sense it, but I didn't sense it at all. That means Shang Lin has a space, a space that might allow a great demon to exist. What could it be?
Moreover, in the declining Dharma realm, cultivators are lucky to even have a small storage bag, let alone a space large enough to accommodate a great demon.
Situ Pojun felt increasingly that there were too many mysteries surrounding Shang Lin, and they couldn't find anything through the current channels of their office. However, as long as he was a friend and not an enemy, that was fine. As for the future...
What happens in the future can only be discussed later! Who can predict the future anyway?
When Shang Lin returned to the corridor, the eerie atmosphere had indeed disappeared. Good heavens, it really was attracted by Situ Pojun! It seems there are far more evil spirits in the sea than on land.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. How big is the land area anyway?
However, Situ Pojun will have to return soon, and the evil energy will gather again because of his presence. I wonder if, after a while, these evil spirits will attack the pearl again, just like the "octopus" did before.
The thought of mermaid pearls made Shang Lin think that the possibility of their existence was very small. After all, mermaids were a species that lived thousands of years ago and had long been extinct. So where would mermaid pearls come from? And they even carried dragon energy!
Just as Shang Lin was about to enter, he faintly heard voices. His senses were heightened, so he listened subconsciously and heard that people seemed to be arguing about something.
"No, we can't just sit here and wait to die. This ship is dangerous everywhere and it's strange in every way. We have to find a way to get out!"
Shang Lin paused. Wasn't that the voice of the muscular man they had just met outside? Hadn't they agreed to wait until the auction ended tomorrow before figuring out how to leave? Why did they have a disagreement after they came back?
The man in the lead continued, "Leave? You make it sound so easy! How can we leave this vast ocean? Besides, now that there are only the two of us left, leaving is even more difficult."
Shang Lin paused again. Only two left? What about the skinny guy? Did he drown in the sea or get eaten by evil spirits during this time?!
"But staying here doesn't guarantee survival!" The muscular man's voice trembled with tears. "If I had known it would be this dangerous, I would never have come!"
Shang Lin, who originally wanted to go back to his room to rest, now wanted to go and see the auction items, but unfortunately he didn't know where they were located!
