Shrouding the Heavens - Chapter 15: Bodhi tree

In a cultivation capital where Beast Tamers command tigers to swallow the sky.There exists a tiny and usually empty shop, yet it contains secrets that would drive the entire Grand Xia Empire into a frenzy.Here, you will find a bouncing Hydro Slime sold for one hundred Spirit Stones!Here, you will see a Magma Core variant priced at ten True Essence Crystals!Here, while others chant ancient mantras, the owner uses high-tech bio-labs, gene-splicing, and molecular incubators to breed god-tier monsters.He is a sarcastic gamer from Earth who just wants to sleep in the sun, but he accidentally became the only supplier of dimensional beasts in the multiverse!“Holy shit! A Basic Slime costs a hundred Spirit Stones?!”The shopkeeper’s eyes light up. Finally, the first victim has arrived.

On the server “Altar,” a high-class survival game was officially launched. Survival was the only logic in the human game of alliance, betrayal, and human-natured games of deceit and treachery. After the smoke of gunpowder ends, only the survivors can speak.

As soon as he opened his eyes, the amnesiac An Wujiu saw a person at his side killed. While in confusion, a floating green typeface appeared before him.

Variable Name: An Wujiu
Attributes: Male, 20 years old
Game Rounds: 5
Win Rate: 100/100
Danger Rank: SSS

No wonder they were afraid.

The first time he saw An Wujiu, Shen Ti felt curious. The kindness and fragility in those eyes were not fake, so how could he survive in the Altar? It was until he saw the man had a sudden personality change. He recklessly gambled regardless of the cost, casually estranged people, grew further excited on the verge of death, and even calculated against himself to win. Only then did Shen Ti realize that it was his own cognitive bias.

Fortunately, he wasn’t a normal person either.
