Actually, everyone had long noticed that the Ancient Man Snake was stalling for time, but they never expected it to be so ruthless as to abandon one-fifth of its body.
Growth of that size was not an easy feat; the Ancient Man Snake had to parasitize on the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms to reach its current scale. Its detachment from the Tree of Ten Thousand Realms means that if it cannot parasitize a new Tree of Ten Thousand Realms, it will be impossible to grow back to its current size.
Even so, it ruthlessly abandoned that part of its body. Is Ange creating a new Incremental Body really that severe? To frighten it to this extent?
Initially, everyone thought it was just spouting nonsense to buy time, but now they had to take it seriously.
"Could the Boundless Space Hole really have been created by someone? How is that possible?" Negris was still somewhat unwilling to believe it.
