"You want to play dirty with us, little thing? You're still too green for that."
It was Sangze's voice.
Ensnared by the black mist, the seemingly harmless Long-eared Rabbit Beast suddenly began to grow at a visible rate.
The coiling black mist expanded along with it.
With a loud BOOM, the black mist violently flung it away. The creature, now a round ball, slammed into a large tree and left a massive crater.
Sunxiao's serpentine pupils glinted coldly as he pulled Qiao Xixi into his arms to protect her. Feiyan and Xijing flanked him, one on each side. The moment Jin Ling leaped forward, he shifted into his beast form, swiftly moving to block the black mass as it tried to flee.
The creature suddenly sprouted four limbs. The soft fur on its back rapidly receded, replaced by hard scales that stood on end like a porcupine's quills. Its body was now almost as large as Jin Ling in his beast form.
Qiao Xixi noticed that its eyes were dark red.
"It's a monster! Be careful, you guys."
