As they felt the shadow, everyone's heart lurched, and they mechanically raised their heads.
Then, the air seemed to freeze.
Deep within everyone's pupils, a colossal, flood dragon-like Demon Beast gradually came into focus. Its body was two full sizes larger than the Mudskipper Shrimp from before, and was no less imposing than Wangxian Monarch.
What was most terrifying wasn't that it had three heads.
But that on either side of each enormous Flood Dragon Head grew bone spurs like fish gills, which fanned slightly with every breath. Saliva constantly dripped from its fangs, and the throat behind its interlocking teeth was like a bottomless abyss, its end nowhere in sight.
Under everyone's gaze, its massive form seemed to detach from illusion, gradually materializing before their eyes.
"Ancient Fierce Beast!"
The same thought surfaced in everyone's mind simultaneously.
"Quick, run!"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd shouted.
