章節 169: Chapter 169: Fight in the Mine (2) - End

The agony emanating from my shoulder was nearly unbearable as the beast man's teeth sunk deep into my flesh, tearing away a chunk of it. Blood gushed from the wound, but I managed to leap away before the beast man could launch another attack.

"What? Are you retreating now? I thought you were the formidable cultivator who dispatched beast men in seconds," he taunted, his words dripping with sarcasm.

I had no choice but to change the course of this battle. If it continued as it was, I'd be defeated. The only option was to unleash the full extent of my power and eliminate these beast men.

This transformation felt more potent than my previous ones. Scales began to appear on my skin, and my body exuded a much greater aura of power.
